AMUSEM ENTS,
"Why Girls Leave Home"

why Girls Leave Home" is the sug-
gestive title of the attraction that oc-
cupied the stage at the Opera house
last evening. 1t is evidently minded
as a lesson to the young, and though
rather strongly drawn, yet should serve
its purpose.
The various scenes group themselves
about the character Dan Sherwood,
each one following easily in its place
until the final scene at the prison. All
of the players entered into the charac-
ter of the piece except Johnnie Hob
bins. He was the bright and shining
light the fellow who always turned
up with something either truly funny
or so ridiculous that what threatened
to be season of tears among the
feminine portion of the audience, al
ways developed into a gale of laughter.
The parts of Dan Sherwood, by r.
E. b. Henry; that OF Johnnie Hobbin,
by William Weston; and Pearl Sher-
wood by Bessie Lee, were especially
we'll taken.
This evening the Bennett Moulton
Company will return from Waterville
and play Saved from Shame"

"kerry Cow" Tuesday, Sept. 10.

Allen Doone, the favorite singing
Irish comedian, who represents Joseph
Murphy as Dan O'Hara" in Joseph
Murphy's famous play the Kerry
Cow" will be the attraction at the
Opera House next Tuesday evening.
Mr.. Doone and his helpers will make
music on the anvil while beating red
hot iron into horse shoes. and the
chatter, singing and dancing are so
true to life that one forgets himself
and believes that Allen Doone has
taken him into his own little black
smith shop; then the race scene is
made exciting by the fact that the
news is carried to the stage by carrier
pigeons. Kerry Cow is natural, it is
beneficial. and it is pity that more
such plays do not come here oftener.
Seat sale opens tomorrow morning.
Prices Csc. soc. 75c. and $1.O0.

Dear Sir-The result of the ballot in
this county is SO close that an official
count may be required to determine it..
In the meantime the candidates them
selves may desire to inspect the ballots
In the hands of the town clerks. This
they have the right to do; but We re-
specially suggest that, to allay criti-
cism and to save labor on the part of
the town clerks, whatever inspection
may be desired be made jointly by rep
resentatives of both political parties
We urge you to take this matter I'M
der consideration at once and take such
action as may be thought desirable, in
the premises.
Meantime it would seem wise to de-
fer inspection until some definite ar
rangement can be made.
