McCulIum's Theatre.
Edwin Milton Royle's three act military
drama, entitled "Jovita' was most en-
Enthusiastically received by large audi
ence at McCullum's Peaks Island theatre
last night. The company was called be-
fore the foot lights at the conclusion of
the first two acts. The play laid in
Mexico, abounds in stirring scenes and
affords scope for pleasing and pictur-
esqu,eeffects. The scenic productions
are the finest yet seen at the Islands
the costumes are superb and the play
may be accounted the ''hit' of the
season. Miss Robertson as ''Jovita, the
Mexican girl, portrayed the emotional
character in a strong, finishedsand artis-
tic manner.
Mr. Pascoe, as Captain Shields, is the
central parsonage of the drama; hesis a
dashing, handsome officer, and treated
all phases of this complex character with
great SKILL
Arthur Livingstone deserves high
praise for his clever work in the part of
an old servant. His pathos is genuine,
while he shows full appreciation of the
humor of the character.
Mr.. Bridgeland did some excellent
work as the willy Mexican william, Genaro
Mendoza, and Beatrice Ingram as
Lucretia Bugg, was delightfully."- piquant
and entertaining.
Miss Winter as the fascinating widow,
Mrs. Gen'l Trigg, captivated the audi
ence in the clever comedy scenes. No one
who saw this performance, need be
told theat she is an artist, it is self evil
dent.
BARLEY McCullum again came forward
with mirth provoking character. His
scenes with the widow furnished a large
part of the evenings fun and was thor
oughly enjoyed by the audience.

they made in the first place he thought it
was time that the city of Portland
should do something in the way of ae-
eommodating the people at Fessenden
park.
Mr.. Marks who was present in the
room, stated to the aldermen that he was
now putting up over $40, 600 worth of
houses at Fessenden park and that he
had agreed to furnish the houses all COM
plete with sewerage and everything by
October l. Unless the city of Portland
took some action about building sewers
for that locality right away he didn't
see how this agreement could be carried
out. The plan for draining this park as
he understood it was to go through Deer
ing street to Noyes and down Noyes into
Forest avenue. He said the AUDITORS
were ready to pay their two thirds Of the
sewer assessment if the city of Deering
would pay the other third. He thought
that If Portland would pay about one
half of behring's third of this assessment
and without any trouble.
g mayor Randall stated for the benefit of
the aldermen just how the matter stands
at present. He said that a subcommittee
from the Deering city government had
come into Portland and made the propo-
sltlon quoted by Alderman Rounds. The
subcommittee of the Portland city gov
eminent had accepted this proposition,
but since that time the Portland commit
tee had heard nothing from the Deering
committee and did not know whether
Deering had accepted the proposition or
not. He thought that no action ought to
be taken in this matter until it was
known just what Deering intended to do
about the matter as by waiting the city of
Portland might be saved considerable ex-
pense. 88 a.

Ellsworth. Jan. 2i.-Dr. Walter NJ
OF this city and among the most prom
inent and popular in the State, died
AT his home on Main street, Tuesday
evening. at the age of II years.
His death was caused by Brights
disease more rapidly developed by the
Swapping of an elastic band which
ruined the sight of one eye and so Sc
riously affected him that he was COM
PEELED to return home and take his bed

which time he has been attended by

which brought him into greatest prom
