Minstrel Show, Concert and Ball of
Eagle II. & l.. Co.

Eagle hook and ladder company, No. /,
the youngest organization of Ellsworth s
fire department, held its first annaal ball
at Hancock hall last Monday evening.
The hall vas handsomely decorated, the
national colors being generously di :
| played in broad streamers reaching from
the centre of the ceiling to the galleries,
and in the large flags draped over the
proseenium arch, the graceful folds
reaching to the floor of the stage.
Above the arch was a picture of the
"Father of our Country, whose birth
day anniversary was being celebrated. i.
The name of the company was arched
above the stage in silver letters.
After an overture by Monaghan Or
chestra behind the scenes, the curtain
rose on the semi-circle of burnt-cork
artists. M. A. Stanhope and G. l. Grant
were the end men, and G. F. Newman, jr.,
was interlocutor. The others in the
semi-circle were w. H. Flint, H. W. Lam
son, Frank Echenagucia, and T. L.
Remick. The best feature of the min
strel show was the song, "Down the
Centre" by G. l. Grant with chorus by
the company. Others who sang were
Stanhope, Flint and Lamson. Herbert s.
Monagh han, son of c. E. Monaghan,
played the piano accomplishments for
the vocalists.
In the second part of the programme
the club swinging by w. B. Crowley and
clog dance by Stanhope were good. Fl.
A. Bennett, of Bangor, could not give his
sack-wire performance owing to lame
ness, aud gave instead character song.
The dance which followed the concert
was well patronized Music was fur
nished by Monaghan's orchestra, of six
pieces. The olIicers for the evening were

Efforts to Change the Civil Service
Law by SpoiIsmen.

Washington. Dec. 1S.-The Republican
members of the house who are framing
bill to reform the civil service law have
not yet got together to draft their meas
ure. Chairman Hepburn of the special
committee having the matter in charge
says he expects the bill to be matured
soon after the holiday recess closes. Thus
far, however. he and his associates on the
special committee have not discussed the
form that the reform measure is to take.
Representative Tawney. who is chair
man of the committee to look up evidence
of the naIadministration of the present
law. is making an elaborate collection of
the material calculated to show defects in
the law and its enforcement.
He will suppIant this with a careful re-
view of the law in the case. the purpose
being to show that the original law never
contemplated the wide application which
it is given. and that the powers exercised
by the civil service commission are sup
ported only by usage and not by law
Mr.. Tawney says the powers exercised
by the commission have stood merely be-
cause they were not contested by any le-
gal process which would secure a strict
adherence TO the law.

tabbies- There We're black and whites,

CORA white, which had the pink eyes; the
jet black and, in fact. the blue and
white, for thus alone can the maltese of
brilliant color be described The cats
were all finely feathered, with feather
dusterIilze tails which should excite the
admiration of the city cousins, who are
said to pay from SO to $25 for the pets
which would make the retail price of the
shipment at least $500. The temporary
home for the tabbies consisted of casket
boxes divided into sections and openly
Grated upon the top. The American Ex-
