will have an opportunity to hear a con-
cert of vocal and instrumental music OF a
high order at popular prices. Manager
Spitz has engaged the Virdi Musical and
Excelsior Mandolin and Guitar clubs to
appear i'm two concerts, giving an oppor-
tunty to lovers of music to enjoy con-
cert of high order at popular prices.
The following talent will appear: Miss
Gertrude Laidlaw, sopranos Miss Allie
Hunter, soprano Miss Nellie Devenish,
reader; Signor j. Pettine, mandolin and
saxophone soloist. The above will be as
sisted by twenty other artists.
On Monday night the house will be
dark, and the cause of this is that Mr..
Spitz went to Boston during the early part
of the present week to witness perform
ance of the company booked for Monday,
Tuesday and Wednesday of the coming
week. After witnessing the performance
the manager decided that it would not
please the patrons of the Pawtucket Opera
House and cancelled the date. This is in
the line of policy adopted by the manager,
who does not intend TO have an inferior
show i'm the house, il hc knows il.

Boston. March G.-William Maybour,
whose skull was fractured by Thurs
days explosion, and who was reported
as being in critical condition yester-
day morning. died at the Emergency
hospital late yesterday afternoon. He is
the seventh victim of the fatality. The
inquest on the explosion will be held
March 13, when the judge of the muni-
oipal court, who acts as coroner will fix
the responsibility for the accident. All
traces of the explosion have been re-
moved from the street, but many Of the
surrounding buildings still present a
strange aspect, all the large windows
being boarded up. The injured, with
the exception Of one or two, are all do
ing well. and no more deaths are ex-
rected. The rumor that Mayor Quincy.

against suits. had attached the Boston

for q spirit TO visit the "old haunts" of its
childhood, his would mingle with those of
his forerathers and others, that he loved
so well.
Mr.. Carey's wife died only few months
ago, and her death had telling effect
upon him. He was gentlemanly in every
respect, honest, upright and just to all his
fellowmen. "Ah, cruel death, why did
you strike down such magnificent type
of manhood? Why do you leave a house,
full of orphans to mourn over good father,
and their tears to moisten the flowers that
shall grow over his grave?"
Then j pray as an old acquaintance,
''may your soul mingle with the angels in
the land beyond the grave.
He has gone to his rest, and his conflicts are
DER.
He has done with his sorrow and pain,
The trials of this life, which he patiently
bore,
viii never distress him again.
You're not forgotten Edward, friend"

a divorce, and the court allowed the
plaintiff IS a week alimony and $50 for
counsel fees. j. Ostied, Jr., appeared for
the plaintiff.

berland is being made and the case will
probably go to the jury during the after

Bishop Harkins laid the matter before the
Apostolic Delegate for decisive action,
with the result above stated.
