AMUSE M ENTS.
Mrs. lie Moyne in "Among Those
Present"

The best attraction with which the
theatre goers Of Augusta and vicinity
have been favored this season, was
that offered, last evening, when Mrs
lie Moyne appeared at the Opera
house in Among Those Present" The
large and representative audience
which filled the house showed that the
opportunity of enjoying such high
grade talent was fully appreciated. The
appearance here of Mrs. LIE Moyne in
THE Greatest Thing in the World"
mad not been forgotten and the enthus-
asm which greeted her, last evening"
was of degree to which audiences in
our Opera house are seldom aroused
1t was the same gracious and charm
ing Mrs lie Moyne, of faultless elocu-
ton and with everything in the details
of her acting which indicates the high
est degree of dramatic ability. From
her first appearance to the final fall of
the curtain her sway over her audience
was absolute. Undoubtedly she is
Handicapped by the play, which is not
equal to her talents, but she made the
most of it. The play is a satire on the
smart set of New York society. and
while it has some thrilling situations, it
is often very ordinary, and in other
hands than those of Mrs. LIE Moyne
would probably be failure. However,
lit was written for her and as she makes
a success of it, its object is attained
Her support throughout was strong and
we'll worthy such an actress, and par
ticularly enjoyable feature to the femi-
nine portion of the audience at least,
were the superb gowns that We're worn.

Cushnoc Hose Co. was called out,
Sunday noon, by a still alarm. &C.
casioned by a chimney burning out at
the residence of l.. l.. Wellman, on
Sewall street, but happily their services
We're not needed. Monday afternoon at
5.45, they had another call, this time on
Oak street, the cause being a burning
chimney. Two men responded in time,
as the chimney was very hot, and the
weather board on the roof had ignited.
1t was a narrow escape from serious
blaze. At 9 o'clock Cushnoc Hose re-
sponded to third alarm, caused by the
burning out of the chimney of a dwell
ing at the rear of the London house.
There was no damage.
