NIoCULLUM,S THEATRE.


The production of Hands Across the
Sea" at McCunum's this week is giving
the greatest satisfaction TO full houses
every afternoon and evening. The excel
lence of the company and the beauty and
appropriateness of the mass of special
scenery affords all who attend a season
of the keenest enjoyment. Hands Across
the Sea" is essentially great play. 1t
is written in the most vigorous and en-
tnusing language and it's events move
with a rapidity that holds the interest
right up to the highest pitch The
shadows of the play are lost In the sun
shine OF its comedy scenes and the humor
and pathos of the story are so happily
and skfIfully blended that the enraptured
spectator alternates between smiles and
tears. There are but two days more for
theatre goers to enjoy this fine attrac-
ton.
Next week the long promised Shakes
perian production will be given. This
Will be the most pretentious and impor-
tant attraction ever presented by Mana
ger McCullum. The play selected is the
immortal authors sublime tragedy
"Othello." 1t Will be produced on scale
of elaborate grandeur as regard scenery,
costumes and properties. The sterling,
intellectual actor and Shakesperian
scholar, Stephen Wright, viii assume the
role of the Moor, and the brilliant
actress, Maud Edna Hall, Will be the
Desdemona. Tickets should be engaged
early for this attraction.
THE GEM.
Last night another large audience wit
messed beautiful and finished perfor-
nance OF an old play in a new garb; one
of intelligence and artistic excellence.
At the END of the fourth act all previous
complication, lead to a duel between
the husband and his wife lover, and
this is played with such strong intensity
as to compel the curtain to rise four
times. The cold indiffere nee OF the
husband who loves his horses, dogs ana
clubs better than his wife. Is vivldly por-
trayed with cool reserve by Wills
Granger. Francis Byrne makes an excel
lent De Lesparre and his more intense
scenes reminds one little OF Edward
Morgan, Lawrence Eddinger Is always
artistic and Teresa Maxwell, MRS
Charles Craig and Myrtle May add to
one OF the prettiest and smoothest produc'
tions ever seen at the Gem theatre.

Is the youngest Juliet. Although Miss
Rockwell, is still very young, perhaps
the youngest leading woman in this
country, her experiences have been varied.
She went on the stage when she was 10
year sold in support Of Thomas Keene,
the Shakesperian actor. With him she
acted, among other parts, Juliet. and she
claims TO be the most youthful actress
successfully to have attempted that char
actsr.
She was first seen here as Virginia in
support OF James O-NeilI, several seasons
ago. but she is best remembered here
from her success with Sol Smith Russell
as Grace sherman IN "Uncle Diok''
she was also creator of the leading role IN
Cumberland" 81. when that war drama
was produced in New York.
Miss Rockwell, comes of southern
family. In appearance she Is very at
tractiye, perfect branette, with big
black eyes and a mass OF rich. dark hair.
Her figure Is slender and graceful.

A SUNDAY SAIL ON SEBAGO AND
THE SONGO.

For those who have never taken this
trip there is day of rare pleasure in
store. A half hours train ride from
Union Station brings one to Sehago Lake,
where a steamer waits to carry the tour
fst across the twelve miles of crystal
water, and up the winding Songo, made
famous by. Longfellow and Hawthorne.
so tortuous and crooked is this stream
that boats going in opposite directions
steam alongside of each other for nearly
a mile, separated only by little strip of
land. The only old-fashioned lock in
New England is used by steamers In this
river. Across Long Lake, the Bay of
Naples Inn is reached, most picturesque
spot. The scenery along the entire trip
is beautiful beyond description. Special
excursion rates on M. q. r. r. Sunday

FOOL TRICK AND CONSEQUENCE

Auburn, August 16.-Mr. Robert A.
Harlow, son of Mr.. Frank A. Harlow,
1872 Lake street, Auburn, had close call
from horrible death on Wednesday.
Mr.. Harlow was amusing himself
shooting at a mark. The shell being too
large for inserting into the rifle at the
breech he removed the ball. He then n
serted the shell as far into the breech as
possible following this by closing the
breech and by winding stout string OF
strap about the opening in order to pre-
vent an explosion. He then turned some
powder into the barrel, following it with
wadding and two bullets, the latter be-
ing securely ''driven home"
When Mr. Harlow pulled the trigger
the gun went off at the wrong end-the
end nearest his face. The shooting iron
parted at the breech and the wonder Is
that the young man who held 1T lives to
tell the tale. He escaped with one side OF
his face shattered and possibly the sight
of one eye, although the physician hopes
to save it

A Young woman who believes that
In time of peace one should prepare
for war has just had a shirt waist
made of white india linen that Is one
of many she has designed for next
summers wear.
This particular waist Is entirely de
void of fullness. but is. front. back.
sides and sleeves, a succession of tiny
box plaits. \ space of about half an
inch Is between every two of these,
and the plaits themselves meas
ure about half an inch across. The
effect is very smart and will be re
markably so when the garment is worn
with white skirt.
y whole library will be written one
of these days on the evolution of the
shirt waist Dost rccollcct the first
ones we wore ugly, i'll fitting things
of Bingham that left no doubt in the
Observers mind that they were intend
ed strictly for use and not beauty. and
that they were for morning wear only
and must be DOTTED promptly at T.
noon on pain of dreadful humiliation:
The next season, it will be remem-
bered, they grew a trifie less unloyely,
and it was then we began to pin them
down in the back, in obedience to the
idea that if we were going to Wear
them we might as well make them as
presentable as possible.
They commenced to fit shortly after
this, and then we grew finicky about
them and insisted that they should
look just SO and be starched to the
Stiffness of boards. We're going back
10 the softer effects this summer, if
fashion advices he true. and our most
priced skirts will be of null and main
sock aud other fine fabrics.
More than that. little quirlS will ap-
pear on them here and there. and there
will be no more clnging to tailor Sc
verify.
OF course. these rules are subject to
change at the hands of the changeablp
sex, but the probabilities are that
while the percale, pique or ginghan
garment for morning wear may be. TN
ornamented, the white one designed
for afternoon will have any number
Of engaging little tucks and rufles and
pufS to render it more attractive in
the eyes OF men and more than ever
distracting to the patient laundress.-
