"Under Southern Skies" Sept. a.

The fate of new play is always
anxiOusly awaited by everyone con-
cerned in its production. For it is a
well known fact that the success or
failure of a play can never be positive
ly determined until the public has a
chance to pronounce a verdict. Many
plays produced with high hopes and
often at great expense do not meet
with popular success and aare quickly
shelved When play lives through
five seasons and enters upon sixth,
with crowded houses greeting it every
where. there can be no doubt that it
has effectually caught the fancy of the
theater going public. Such a play is
Lottie Blair Parker's picturesque
drama. Under Southern Skies From
its first presentation at the Theater
Republic. (now the Belasco Theater),
in New York City, the play has drawn
large and delighted audiences. Time
seems only to increase its popularity
and each succeeding visit shows it's
drawing powers on the increase test
ing the capacity of the theaters Few
plays of southern life have won such
popularity as Under Southern Skies"

1t is said that a party of Augusta
hOrsemen who had been planning to
go to Bangor Friday to take in the
races of the last day of the Eastern
Maine State fair. did not see the races
at all, and in fact did not even get as
far on the trip as the railroad station.
They did not want to get up early
enough in the morning to take train
No. 81 at 6.1S. So they decided that
they would wait until 9.0S. and take
train No. !. which would give them
time to have a good breakfast at the
usual hour. and then get shaved and
fixed up for the trip. Things We're GO
ing along swimmingly. 50 it was said.
until one of the party happened to
ascertain that they could not get to
Bangor by train No. l. as that trail
only goes to Waterville. The next
train for Bangor left at 1920 p. NJ,
and so the trip was given up. The
same party is now making plans to go
to the Lewiston fair, and as the train
arrangements to that city are better
than they are to the eastern part of
the State they will probably get there.

Way Down East with its real peo-

snow storm. is the announcement of
the opera house management for
Wednesday. Sept. ).
The play has been seen in this city
several times before. but it is an ex-
cellent repeater. as evidenced by its
frequent return engagements in New
York and Chicago.
Many persons will undoubtedly pre-
fer seeing an old favorite than venture
on performance Of which they know
nothing, beyond the fact that its press
agent is hard working. Then too, per-
haps. the familiar characters and in
cidents of the play may prompt as
pleasant a flow of recollections as may
be produced by hearing well-re-
membered melody.
way Down East" will be acted by a
cast that is almost identical with that
of last season.

act rural drama, THE Volunteer Or

which creates desire to see it a sec

was rendered in a way that pleased

Some Of the people who have visited
the museum Of the fish and game de
partment recently and have admired
the collection of birds and animals in
the large glass case which forms one
of the attractions of the room, must
have gone home with a wrong impress
sion as to the personal appearance of q
bear cub. and all on account of little
slip which was made by one or the
guides who conducts parties of visitors
about the building. The man would
have known better had he looked closer
at the animal in the case. for he hunted
bears, so it is said. in his younger days.
and may have killed bears enough 10
carpet the rotunda with their skins,
but the light in the corner where the
case is located is a little subdued. and
the man did not have his glasses with
him, so when his eye caught the figure
OF a black woodchuck beside that Of
bear. he did not hesitate to draw the
conclusion that the smaller animal was
from its color and location bear cub.
And so il went. and to every party OF
visitors to whom he explained the
Characteristics of the animals in the
case ne called special attention to the
..littIe bear cub" and probably none OF
them were the wiser. This went on
for several days. until some one famil-
lar with the specimens in the case took
mains to look them over to see If new
one had been added. and found that the
little bear cub" was the woodchuck
mentioned above. The man knows the
difference now. and explains TO the visi-
tors that the little animal is not bear
cub, although it looks very much IKE
one.

One of the sources of income to the
State of which little is known in a gen.
eral way are the commissions which
are granted from time to time by the
Governor to different citizens, giving
them the authority to perform the du-
ties of certain offices. 1t will be no
ticed that on the week preceding that
on which is held the monthly meeting
of the Governor and Council there is
printed list of nominations, and in
this list are the names of the people who
have been appointed to the different Of
fees. These offices include that of no
tary public, justice of the peace. trial
justice, coroner, fish inspector, to ad-
minister Oaths and sOlemniZe marriages
and others. and with each appointment
there is turned into the treasury of the
State the sum of IS for the commission.
Thus far this year the number of COM
missions granted to holders of these
minor offices is nearly 600, so that il
can be readily seen that the revenue of
the State from this source in the course
of a year will be quite q respectable
one.

Friday, Sept. Fl, at 10 A. NJ.

The next meeting Of the Governor
and Council, which will be held in the
council chamber on Friday, Sept u
commencing at 10 o'clock in the fore
noon, is not expected to be a very long
session. as the business which will COM,
up for transaction 50 far as is known
Is mostly of a routine nature and can
be disposed of quickly No pardon
hearings are in sight, nor have there
been for the past few meetings, which
would seem to indicate that the Door
success which petitioners have had
during the past year is acting as a dis
cOuragement to further efforts in that
line.
A matter which is surrounded by
much interest in connection with the
coming meeting, is that of the appoint
ment of judge of the superior court
of Cumberland county, TO fill the va
cancy i'm the office due to the death of
the late Judge Percival BOnney, which
it is felt will be lnade by. the Governor
in season to come up for confirmation
at the meeting. There are several can
dldates, the two most prominent ones
being Levi Turner and Judge Harry
Rust Virgin, both Of Portland, and the
endorsements are coming in well.

Motto For a Cemetery.

Grand Recorder Fearing, of the
Massachusetts, A. o. U. w, tells this
story as showing the position of fra
ternal insurance:
A merchant who had amassed a
large fortune retired from business
and returned to his aative town, in
the western part of the State, to
spend his remaining days. He made
many valuable gifts to the town
finally presentingto it a tract of land,
surrounded by a handsome wall and
having a splendid arehed entrance,
to be used as cemetery. In this he
took great pride and often walked
out to view it.
One morning, while thus engaged,
he met at the entrance Pat Clancy,
the village wit. After some desul-
tory talk he said: Pat, there is only
one thing lacking to make this ceme-
terry completes that is a motto to be
inscribed on this gateway What
would you suggest as suitable in
seription?"
Pat scratched his head for a mo
ment and then said: How would this
do We have come to stay?' ="
