Letter to Flint Brothers.
St Johnsbury, Vt.

Dear Sir: H. M. Hooker & Co., Coop
erstown, N. Y. have sold Devoe paint for
AZ years. D. 7, McGown, of that firm,
built house in 85 and painted Devoe,
o. course. The paint lasted ten years.
A year or two later, a neighbor built
house, and pain ed it lead and oil. The
neighbours house was reprinted twice in
the same time.
This looks as if the neighbours house
was painted three times in eight or nine
years, and McGown's once in ten Years
We are not quite sure-we tell the tale as
1t comes to us.
1t is enough to say that Devoe lead and
zinc lasts twice as long as lead and oil.
Yours truly,
F. w. DEvoE & Co.

From People Who Want Damages.

For nearly two hours yesterday after.

We're Alderman Moore ana Councilmen
comedian, Fox and Woodside. City So
ncl0or Strout was also on hand.
Orlando e. Dyer presented claim of
500 which he said was due for special
work done for the board of reg1st ration
last year. Assessor Lefavor appeared in
opposition to the claim and said that this
was regular part of the work of Mr.
Dyer who was the assessor for ward five
and that he had been paid In full. The
committee deemed 1t inexpedient to pay
this order.
The claim OF Mrs w. 9. Osgood for
$500 damages on account of Injuries re-
ceived by falling on the street near the
Pine Street Methodist church, was pre-
senbed. No action was taken on this
matter.
1t was voted TO draw an order for the
payment of SIS to Mark Wilcox for dam
age that his house received by falling
tree.
Mrs. Robinson of Verandah street who
wants $50 on account of damages received
In the raising of the grade OF that street,
was given leave to Withdraw, as was also
William II. Scott who asked for $500 on
account of extra work done on the Elmer
son school. 1t appeared from the testi-
mOnV that this school h0uca was about
to be completed when Mr.. Scott discov.
cred that more work was necessary. The
committee believes that 1t was through
the fault of Mr.. Scott himself that he did
not see this at the start.

The case had been assigned for yesterday

Is to be presented with all the original

connection with the siege of Richmond

NOTES.
For his production of King Henry V to
be given in New York next week it Is es-
timated that Richard Mansfield viii have
to pay out no less than $5o,OO0 before
the curtain rises Some of the expenses
are OF a sort unusual in the average stage
production. One item is six horses,
bought from a circus because the animals
are accustomed to noise, lights, confusion
| and applause. Aside from the scenery
the other most expensive item is probably
the forty two full suits of metallic armor
for the English mobiles in the battle of
Agincourt. The jeWelled orders OF the
| court and mobiles of France and England
are all identically correct. and the battle
flags emblazed with the coats of arms of
| the various noble house must have cost a
pretty penny. There are some fifty of
these standards Mr.. Mansfield has boy
choir or twenty a male adult choir
of fourteen, a ballet of twenty girls, and
a cast of forty -seYen. The incidental music
VIII he played by grand orchestra of
thirty 1t is conservatively estimated
that Mr.. Mansfield VIII be surrounded by
25O people appearing in Henry Y aside
from the stage hands to the number of
fifty and the musicians.
While Tim Murphy was in Cincinnati
recently plausibly spoken man intro
duced himself under the pretense of ad-
miring his acting. He soon shifted to the
subject to hypnotism and so interested
the comedian that Mr.. Murphy finally
consented to a test of his power. The
alleged hypnotist insisted IN the test
being made In private ana nnally got Mr..
Murphy permission to accompany him
TO his room. There, in the presence of
the comedians wife, the performance
began. Mr.. Murphy in an effort to in
duce hypnotic results became perfectly
passive and quiet. The stranger must
have fooled himself into the belief that
he was a hypnotist and that he had his
subject under cOnrol, for he sent Mrs.
Murphy out of the room for something
essential to the test and the next thing |
the subject knew the stranger had left
off the mystic passes on his brow and was
making lightning passes through his
pockets. But the next pass was the one
that took the scOundr5l through the door.
1t was a swift one and had nothing to do
with hypnotism.

OUR NEW MINISTER.


"Our New Minister, - Denman Thomp-
son and George w. Ryer's latest produc-
ton, will have It's first local production
at the Jefferson on tonight and tomorrow
night. Like 1.-THE Old Homestead. -
this, the latest of comedy dramas of New
England life. depends for it's success and
popularity upon It's simplicity and puri-
ty OF theme, the genuineness OF It's come
dy and pathos and the strength and
naturaIness OF It's character. scenes and
situations Every character In 1t Is drawn
from life. There is not an unnatural
feature, not a particle OF stage clap trap
or a vulgar situation. On the contrary,
1t is intensely human, a true and charac-
teristic rescript from every day life.
UNDERWOOD SPRING.
In the vaudeville entertainment at
Underwood ths act of Adolf. Adams is
worthy specialsmention. He is an adept
at impersonating prominent people and
has attained this art to great perfection.
He represents in succession Gladstone,
Napoleon, Emperor William, l., Lord
Roberts, President Kruger, Gen. Kronje,
j. K. Emmett, Admiral Sohley, Admiral
Dewey, Washington and Uncle Sam.
The audience have no difficulty in recog-
nizing each one OF these as 1t is produced.
The thres Renos, two men and a young
woman, are accomplished contort1onists
and the way they perform is something
surprising. Coogan and Bacon as the
old maid and the tramp on roller skates,
are amusing. Miss Gertrude Holmes is
the best singer heard here this season. |
Flynn and Marion, the Irish comedians,
and Mardo the juggler, are all good. |
This entertainment is by all odds the best
yet provided and nothing better of its |
kind has ever been given in Portland. |

The splendid price of cotton
this season may have a demoraliz-
ing effect on farmers next year by
causing them to plant too much of
the staple to the exclusion of
diversified crops. No matter how
high the price of cotton may go,
there is more money in a diversi-
fed crop than in any single crop.
Diversifcation should be practiced
more and more each year by the
Territory farmer.
