The house of J. W. Littlefleld, Cottage

night and wallet containing three five
dollar bills, together with some loose
change, was taken from the hip pocket of

last Tuesday night. When Mr.. Littlefleld
retired, the money was in his pocket, but
before morning it had been removed.
Both Mr.. and Mrs. Littletield are heavy

efuSlC AND DRAMH.
Proposed New Theatre at Peaks Island.

Proposed New Theatre at Peaks Island.
Manager Cooling of the Casco Bay line,
speaking in regard to the proposed new
theatre at Peaks island, says that plans
are all made for a house that would cost
$4,000. But there is question whether
it is advisable to erect so costly house.
Mr.. Goding's idea is that they should
have a building that would comfortably
seat about 1000 people in first-class
way, and fitted with a stage considerably
larger than the present. Col Wood, the
architect of the The jefferson, has been
down to the island, and they have looked
over several sites. One plan is to convert
the Forest City rink into play house.
This could easily be done by placing
steel ceiling in position to make the ac-
counstic properties right. There is plen-
ty of room for q large stage and ample
seating capacity. Then they have con-
sidered the feasibility of erecting thea
tire on the land directly opposite the rink.
This would be central location and one
where distance would not deter the peo-
pie from going down on rainy night.
In all probability Col Wood will make
the plans for play house that will meet
the demands and satisfy the wants of
all before he leaves Portland.

These young gentlemen are thorough

Prices at the Jefferson.
For the opening night at "The Jeffer-

tickets will commence on Wednesday,
September 8th. The price will be So. so

lar scale of prices at the jefferson will
range from 25 cents to 81, although when
special attractions are presented these
rates may be increased. The scale of
prices for the second night of Francis
Wilson have not been fixed as yet and
will depend solely on Mr.. Wilson's ideas
in regard to the matter.
