THE STEAMER FRANK JONES.

The manager of the Frank Jones, which
runs from this port to Machias and neigh
boring points On the east coast, says that
the business done by this fine steamer this
season has far exceeded expectations and
the freight holds on SO well that it is not
at all probables that the steamer will be
taken off the route before Decem Der first.
The steamer commenced running from
Portland last season on April second, but
1t is not unlikely that in the coming
springsshe will go on the route as early as
March first. During the summer she has
carried all the freight that she could
stagger under while the passenger bust
ness has been the largest this steamer has
ever known. 1t is fine thing for Port
land and the venture is turning out well
for the Maine Central railroad, which
owns the boat
When the Frank Jones stops running
on December first the towns from Mt
Desert Ferry to Machiasport are shut off
from the rest of the world and the only
communication which they have is by a
long cold stage drive. 1t is likely that
this season the steamer Sappho, now run
ming from Mt. Desert Ferry to Bar Har-
Dor, will be taken off this route on De-
cember first, and runs from MT. Desert to
Machiasport, stopping on both trips up
and back at Millbridge and Jonesport.
This will be a great thing for these
towns which have been absolutely shut
out of the world after the Jones stops run
ming for the season.

PORTLAND MUSICIANS IN THE
FESTIVAL.
To the Editor of the Press:

The musical pulse Of our city as well
as state has unquestionably been quick
ened to considerable degree by the mag
nificent success of the Maine Musical
Festival, and the prompt and valuable aid
rendered by our local musicians, 10th
vocal an3 instrumental, contributed in no
small degree in making an unqualified
success out of what seemed at hrst some
what hazardous undertaking. The warm
and unstinted praise bestowed upon the
performances; by musicians in the front
ranks of the profession, and the stamp of
public approval evidenced by generous
and enthusiastic audiences, shows that
the experimental stage of this association
has been successfully passed, and If
Portland has been accused or Icing
''sIow,' the delusion is being rapidly dis
PEELED.
The strong encouragement which all
those interested must feel, together With
our local musical pride, should not allow
the enthu lasm to wane or eHorUs 10 IAN
gulsh in keeping up an active lhUeresb IN
choral and orchestral work. Mlthout
neglecting the former, already well estap-
llshed, it seems fitting time now to
the latter connection Herewith. There
is, without doubt sulbcient talent In
our city to make a very creditable begin
ming, provided the necessary cooperation
OF our orchestral players and those inter
ested in orchestral work can be secured;
such a movement would also tend large
ly to stimulate and bring out undeVel-
oped talent.
We all take great deal of pride IN our
haydn Association and its talented con,
ductor, in which we have society second
to none IN the country; why cannot its
usefulness be extended and new interest
awakened by the addition Of an orchestra
such as is possible to organize from resi-
dent musicians. Such an organization III
conneotion with the Haydn Association,
would not only be a great benefit locally
but would also contribute to the succe ss
OF future Maine Musical Festivals. which
seem to be already assured.
