Grand Opera in New York.

New York, March S.-Some idea of the

new scenery at the theater for which $50
900 has been subscribed by the stockhold-

The Bazaar OF Nations, which was held
on Tuesday and Wednesday, May 3 and 4,
was a gratifying success to those having
the matter in charge. The gross receipts
were S12317 and the expenses S25 so, leav-
ing balance of S9767. Although this
sum is not so large as that realized some
other years, the Kings Daughters re-
member that mary serious matters are
engrossing the attention of the public,
which prevent so active an interest in
affairs of this nature. The thanks of the
circle are due all who by their contribu
lions and patronage insured the success
OF the bazaar, aud especially to A. w.
Cushman q Son, who loaned the tables
and chairs for the Japanese tea garden,
the friends who so generously supplied
the cream for the ice-cream, and Henry
Gould, who made the ice-cream.

The annual fair of the Kings Daughters
closed last Wednesday evening with a
continuation OF the sale OF useful and
fancy articles, and a short but highly in
teresting entertainment.
First came chorus of thirty-tive little
girls, arrayed in white with red, white
and blue ribbons, each carrying a tiny
American flag. They sang national airs
with vigor that surprised even the old
folks. They were drilled by hrs. E. F.
Redman. Miss Mary F. Hopkins played
the accompaniment
Then twelve girls gave hoop drill.
The man9uvres were executed with
remarkable precis ion, and the effect was
excellent. The leaders were Marie Grant
and Nora Hammond. They were trained
by Mrs. c. l. WEIGH. Mae B. Friend
played the accompaniment.
The final number was the temperance
of the bevy OF children who sang "The
Watch on the Rhine" in German. The
closing number was "The Star-Spangled
Banner, in the chorus of which the
audience joined.
After the entertainment the sale was
continued. The details OF the first even
ing Of the fair were given in last weeks

tendance at the Japanese booth, the name
OF Mrs. E. F. Robinson was unintention-
ally omitted.

THE DIRIGO GOAT.
Novel Exhibition-A Fine Drill by
Young Ladies'.


There was an entertainment somew hat
out Of the usual order at Hancock hall
last Friday evening, when the Dirigo
athletic club paraded its goat. In con-
nection with the exhibition there was a
drill by ten young ladies, and by the
Pretorian guards.
The entertainment opened with the
drill by the Misses Hattie Mason, Bert ha
Giles, Leah Friend, Etfie Davis, Maude
Smith, Helen Hale, Sarah Jarvis and Alice
Haslam. 1t was pronounced the prettiest
drill ever seen in Ellsworth. Their march
ing was in perfect time and line. But the
feature OF the drill was the throwing of
stereopticon pictures on the girls as they
marched to the front III close rank, the
white dresses forming the screen for the
pictures. The pictures were of a patriotic
nature which called forth bursts of ap-
plause. The pictures thrown were of Nc
kinley, Lincoln, Washington, two views
OF the battleship "Maine", and the Amer
lean flag in colors. AS an encore the
young ladies went through maneuver
while the picture of the flag was thrown
oh tuO oOdSCy oil CuSSl ob Vi .
waving flag, or as drill OF goddesses Of
liberty.
Credit for this feature OF the entertain
ment is due not only to the young ladies,
but to W. W. Morrison, who drilled
them, and to l. l.. Halman who operated
the lantern.
The marching by the Pretorian guards,
iok, <>Rk l1 -
the Dirigo degree, was excellent. Able
Friend, as captain OF the guards, was
superb. The guards were G. w.
Eaton, William W. Morrison, lehman
E. Dyer, J. A. Stuart, Lloyd Remick,
Charles Shea, Charles s. Grows and Harry
E. Rowe.
The working OF the degree, which was
laugha BILE burlesque, kept the audience
in anxious suspense as to the ultimate
fate of the candidate. The officers of the
lodge were: cham tycoon and pyramid,
q. E. Stuart; grand senior humanitarian,
F. c. Burrill; grand junior humanitarian,
e. II. Leland; reflected ancient rythm,
William Goggins; rig minded bull dog
of the treasury and sublime secretary,
Charles f. Bellatty; chief watch dog of
he outer porch and captain of the
Pretorian guards, A. l.. Friend. The
candidate was Harry Brown.
The entertainment closed with a tab
leau which might appropriately be
named Remember the Name. The
central figures were "Uncle SAM, the
flag and two Yankee middies with
crossed swords. The audience Joined in
singing "Columbia''.
After the entertainment there was a
dance

W AR NEWS.

In this column from week to week during the
continuance Of the war, THE AMERICAN Will
print the important facts and events of each
day of the preceding week. We shall endeavor
to separate the wheat from the char-fact from
rumor-to the end that readers of THE AMER1-
CAN will be correctly informed Of the progress
of events. We Will give no space here to un
authenticated rumors and unofficial reports
from Washington, aud will relieve the news ct
all sensational features and Inaccuracies which
nseparable from daily press reports aud
news bulletins We will tell the plain. unvar.
nished tale that tine flies OF THE AMERICAN
may afford a fairly correct history of the war.
This, we believe, is the proper province of the
weekly paper nj this time. and in following this
plan THE AMERICAN hopes to be more widely
appreciated than though it attempted a weak
imitation of the daily press publishing unsatis
factory and uutrustworthy news bulletins, only
to contradict them In u later issle. On Wednes
days, however, we will print the most reliable
news bulletins received up to he hour of going
to press, but this will be entirely apart from
this column, and a correct summary of the pres
ent Wednesdays happenings will appear next
week.

A NEW INDUSTRY.
Ellsworth will soon Engage In the
Manufacture of Coal-Hods.

A new industry is soon to be estab-
lished in Ellsworth-the manufacture of
coal hods. A company has been organ
lied for that purpose, and preparations
are now being made to begin work. 1t
will be several weeks before the manufac-
ture of the hods will begin.
Frank l.. Carlton, of Sullivan, some
time ago secured Il patent for a coal-hod
built on an entirely different principle
from the ordinary nod, the coal being de-
livered from the bottom instead of the
top. Ia shape it somewhat resembles an
ordinary nod turned upside down. Its
greatest merit is that it prevents the
scattering OF coal about the floor.
To put this nod on the market com
pany has been formed, known as the
Carlton Manufacturing Co. Charles l..
Morang, of Ellsworth, is president and
general manager of the company, and H.
II. Havey, OF Sullivan, is treasurer and
secretary. The directors are c. L.
MoraDg, Ellsworth; II. II. Havey, Sulli-
van; E. B. Colcord, Rockland; F. L..
Carlton, Sullivan. Among the Ellsworth
men interested are DR.. A. G. Hagerthy,
DR.. L. w. Hodgkins and Charles fl.
Emery.
Plans are now being made for the man
ufacture Of the hods at the foundry build
ing on Water street. Burton B. Walker
will probably superintend their manu-
facture. The necessary dies are now be-
ing prepared. 1t will be several weeks,
perhaps months, before everything will
be in readiness to begin manufacturing
the hods.
Mr.. Morang has been in Boston, and
arranged with several large wholesale
houses to put the goods on the market.
He exhibited small model of the hod,
and dealers were favorably impressed
by it.
The hods will be manufactured in gal
vanized and sheet iron, and the cost
will be but slightly more than of an
ordinary hod.
