To the Editor of Interviewing Star:
Was there ever a political party
known as the "Silver Greys?"
ID. II. E.
IYes; it was the name by which the
conservative element of the old-time
Wing party was known. At a conven
ton held at Syracuse on September q,
1850, those Wings who were enthusi-
astic supporters of Fillmore felt stung
by the hostility manifested against the
policy of the administration, and d
| number of them, including the chair
man (Mr. Granger), withdrew from the
assembly. Most of them happened to
be gray-haired men, and, as they filed

Canneries Ready for Business But Fish
Have Not arrived.

Eastport, Me-, April 15.-The sardine
canning season on the Maine coast
opens today as fixed by law. Although
the entire output of last season was
exhausted some months ago it is the
opinion of some that there is samll
likelihood of any marked activity be-
fore August. AS yet no fish have APP
peared on the shores, which is quite
unusual at this season. Some fisher
men, however, think that the next run
of tides, which will be in about two
weeks, will bring the small fish.
Because of the absence of heavy ice
in the bays and creeks the past win
ter the fish weirs are in fairly good
condition aud with slight. repairs will
be ready to operate on short notice.
A device for taking the fish, in
vented by one of the large operators
has been patented and will be put into
operation this year This machine will
displace a large number %of women
and boys.

OATH" showing the perls of woman
whose motives are those of noble
life, and number of other equally
clever dramas. Each play presented
has a rich vein of delightful comedy.
and in the hands of the above COM
pany ample justice is done each char
acter.
AS the Boylston Stock Company is
the first attraction after Lent it is
safe to predict most flattering bust
ness during the company's stay here.
