WHAT WILL BE DONE z
Plans That Are Being Discussed for
z the Entertainment of the North At
lontic Squadron.

The North Atlantic squadron will be In
Portland in the course Of few weeks.
In:years past there havebeen great prepar.
ations made for the entertainment of the
officers anu men of the fleet when it
reached Portland, but that was before 1t
fought Its way close TO the hearts Of every
true American at Santiago and at Ma
Mia If Portland has had the reputation n
of being most hospitahle city in the
past what will she do to show her appre-
citation of the Yankee blue jackets this
yearS The city fathers are beginning to
discuss this matter little. Some of them
feel as II they wanted to give a rousing
welcome to the fleet when it arrives here
the last OF next month. There is some
talk of making it great occasion and
bringing to Portland all of the people for
miles around who have never seen man
o. war but who will want to see the ships
which wrecked Cevera's squdarou last
July. 1t would be great thing for tho
city and the city fathers are talking about
making the best of the opportunity. They
do not wish the city to pay the entire ex-
pense of this celebration. Many people
will want to see the ships, would like to
dance with the officers of them. would
like to hear some OF the more distin-
guishedsamong them talk at the banquet
which is sure to be given them. 1t Is pro-
posed that the city government take the
initiative steps and invite the citizens
generally to cooperate with them in do.
ing the city proud on this occasion. The
time is short and something will have to
be arranged very soon If it is to be a sue
cess. There is little doubt but some
action OF the kind may be taken at city
meeting which will be held in the near
future,

RECALLS A NOVEL CASE.
Surdel's Conspiracy Case Against
Prominent Polanders.

Andrew Kavolski and Andrew Slav-
dorslii who went bail for Daniel Lang
owski and u. Lopotyner i'm the con-
spiracy case in which Adam SurdeI
was prosecutor, made application to
court yesterday to strike off the for
feiture of recOgnizances which followed
the temperance of the defendants.
They allege that in the interim between
the arrests and the meeting of the
grand jury they convinced or thought
they convinced Surdel that he was
prosecuting the wrong man, and he
promised to go to the district attorney
and have the case quashed. They paid
no more heed to the matter, feeling
secure in Surdel's promise and were
surprised to learn at the conclusion of
the last term of criminal court that
Surdel persisted in prosecuting the
case and that, because of the defend
ants not appearing, the bail had been
forfeited.
Court granted a rule, returnable at
argument court, to show cause why
the forfeiture should not be stricken
off.
This is the case in which Surdel al
leges that Langowski, Lopatyner and
some others of that faction hired a coll
ored man to whip him, because he in
stituted a suit against them to recover
some money which he alleged he loaned
them.

his exit occurs with the final chlvalric
toast to Aunt Nancy might not also
have been heard.
TAKEN FROM LIFE.
The audience was much Interested
i'm the statement that tom Grogan"
was taken from life. She was consider
ably older than he portrayed her and is
now about SO and rs worth n quarter
of a million dollars. He had been an
employer of labor for many years, but
never had known any one the victom
of such vicious persecution as this
woman. Her ruling passion is still
evident and If he should go today to
Staten island he would see her stand
ing on tn string piece by she light
station unloading coal.
He read the chapter where Tom tells
Babcock the pitiful tragedy of her life
confessng she has concealed the death
of her husband, and her one heart
breaking desire to keep his name and
do as Tom would have done.
The water Logged Town from
"Old Gondola Days" was indescribably
well recited. The man from Troy, N.
Y, who objected to Venice, to gondolas,
to Venetian palaces and every thing
else in the White Swan Of cities created
continuous ripple of laughter. The
speakers twenty-five summers in Ven
ice had given him an atmosphere for
his recollections impossible to overesti-
mate. II is to be hoped that some day
Mr.. Smith will come here again.
