The House Party.

Owing to the great pressure upon our
Saturday columns, we were unable to
give the space for as detailed an ac-
count of the play in Meonian hall, Fri
day evening, as the occasion really
merited.
The friends of the participants had
been led to expect a great deal of Its
production, by reason of the reports
of the success attending it's previous
presentation, and they were not dis
appointed.
In spite of the threatening weather,
Meonian hall was well filled by an
audience composed of the very best
society in the city, and also a large
party from neighboring towns.
Those who came expecting to see the
old familiar stage and scenery OF Me-
oman in simplicity unadorned. were
very pleasantly surprised. The ex-
terror of the stage was made attractive
by a rim of evergreen encircling the
stage in front of the foOtlights, and q
large fir tree at each corner, thus
forming a framework of green for the
inner stage, which was attractiveiS
furnished and decorated with pictures
and posters giving the whole the as
meet of a very attractive and homelikt
living room.
AS to the play, it is one of great va
riety. running the whole gamut from
serious drama to light comedy
and musical speciality. The Sit

Mr. Louis Dunton in the part Of
Philip Raymond, eldest son of John

some of the more serious and difficult
work of the play, and handled it in
very finished manner, absorbing the
attention of the audience and earning
very prolonged and we'll deserved

MIR. Robert T. Whtehouse as Jack
Raymond, gave a very natural repre-
sentation of the typical college boy and
the absent minded man, without,
| however, being SO absent-minded as

pleasing singing and the Italian opera
burlesque and the topical song were
both written by him.
Although the play has no distinctive
ly star part, the most prominent char
acter in the cast was that of the pro-
fessor. This was taken by Mr.. Charles
D. Barrows of Portland. In fact the
success of most of the light comedy
work rested with Mr.. Barrows and his

and savor faire of professionals. The
reputation of Miss Maude Stanwood as
here, and her friends were in no way
disappointed. 1t was a clever bit of
character work, depicting the typical

trance of hers was sign for laughter
and at times the audience was con-
vulsed.
Mrs. Florence Brooks Whtehouse, as
Dorothy Raymond, did some very
vivacious and artistic work and her
singing was chaming. Her cadenza in
the Italian opera burlesque sung as a

true operate style and effect.

Her enunciation was particularly good.
This was the occasion also of Miss

IN THE STORM.
Representative B. A. HAZEL Has An Inter.
esting Experience.

Representative B. A. Hazell and Her.
man Z. HAZEL had an experience Monday
that they will not forget rs long as they
live. In tho morning they drove over in
Maryland and in returning they visited
their farm near Blackiston's Cross Roads.
They had not proceeded very far from tho
farm on the way home when the cloud
burst struck them. The roads soon be.
came n solid sheet of water and the thun.
der and lightning was terrific, and they
could only SEQ few yards ahead OF them.
When between tho farms of G. H. Dulin
and Wesley Stevens they found the bridge
had been washed away and there was
nothing to do but come back and take the
road by Benjamin Hurlocl's s.
This road was not travelled very far be.
foro they found another bridge gone. The
horses were unhtched from tho carriage
and they swan across tho stream, while
the carriage was pulled across tho rafters
which remained. Tho horses were again
htchcd to tho carriage and tho gentle
men again resumed their journey. At
the mill branch near the farm of George
Cook, tho road was covered with three
feet Of water for hundred yards Oh each
side of the bridge. Here they met one of
John Morris sons, who had just como over
tho bridge. He informed the Messrs.
HAZEL that one of the boards of tho

ed over Representative Huzell did not
desire to take too much risk with his horses
and he waded through the water and ac.
companied tho boy to the bridge.
He found besides the loose plank over
which tho turbulant waters of the stream
were sweeping with great rapldity another
one had been entirely swept away. He
went to fence nearby and after securing
u rail placed it on tho bridge to take tho
place Of the plank. Then with the boy
and his horse on one side and Mr.. Hazel
on the other tho team was driven safely
over. More than once tho genial Repre-.
sentative was almost taken from his feet
and carried down with the swift current.
They next repaired to the residence of
George Cook whero, after Mr.. Hazell Sc.
cured some dry clothing, they again plo-
ceelcd on their journey to Smyrna. They
had not proceeded on their journey very
far before they discovered another bridge
that had been washed away. The Repre-
sentative took off his shoes and rolling up
his pants wadcd through tho water to the
bridge. He found that the planks had
only been washed u short distance away.
He sooL put them back in place again, and
The journey to smyrna was again resumed.

PRESIDENT BORDA MURDERED.
Uruguay's Chief Magistrate Shot Dur
In n National Col Iahra tion

In q National Celebration.
Montevideo, Aug. 26.-During q ma.
tional fete which was held here yester.
day President J. Idiarte Borda was shot
and killed by an assassin. The assas.
sination Of the president occurred just
as he was leaving the cathedral, where
te deum had been sung. The assas.
sin was arrested. This was the fourth
attempt on the presidents life, the
first being made by crazy student
named Revecca. Another attempt was
made to assassinate the president on
the afternoon of April 81 last. An un-
known man met President Borda on the
street and shot at him. The president
escaped without Injury, and the Grim
inal was captured. On May 20 q bomb
was sent to hira in a box. but the police
were suspicious, and 1t was destroyed.
Senior Borda was elected president
of Uruguay for the term extending
from March, 1894, to 1893 The fete at
which he was assassinated was being
held in celebration Of the independence
of Uruguay. which was achieved on
Aug 25, 1926.
At the time of Senior Borda's election
he belonged to the Official party, and
was elected by n very narrow MAJOR
ity. The people, 1t was said. were sad
ly disappointed at the result, but order
and quiet was maintained The leading
papers Of Uruguay deplored the elec-
tlon of Senior Borda, and declared that
1t marked reaction in the country's
progress.
Later President Borda issued a proc
lamation to the effect that his admin
istration would conduct the business
of the state in the interest of the whole
nation, and that he would invite the
assistance of all political parties to
that end. This proclamation made
very favorable impression.
