Salvation Army
Special Meetings,

Tuesday. March 10th. Capt. Norris
Woods, now in charge of the Army's s
operations in Lewiston, Me-, will conduct
two meetings, one on the Square (weather
permitting> and the other in the hall of
the local corps. up stairs, 259 Water
street. Captain Norris Wood has served
in the U. s. Army and has had a ventur-
Gus experience but his coming in contact
with the Salvation Army shows him
equal to the work for which he Is re-
sponsible. His wife was formerly mis-
sionary in South Africa. She is great
help to him in his corps work, and to-
gether a great work is being done in our
sister city. He should be seen and neard
to judge of his ability to cope with ini-
guilty. Give him hearty welcome as he
comes to our city. He will have the sup
port of Ensign S. V. Furman and family,
living testimony and good music are
promised.

have had opportunity to see the stage
version much sooner, but the Aicott
heirs, holding copyright control, OBJ
jected, fearing that the book, cher
ished SO highly by the hundreds OF
thousands who have read it, would be
butchered to make a brief holiday for
a theatre manager.
Finally, however, the opposition OF
Miss Alcott's family was overcome,
and It Is generally conceded that it
never would have existed with any
knowledge Of the affectionate and re-
spectfui manner in which the materi-
al was to be written. Intelligence has
directed the selection of the stage cpl
sodes and good taste is ever in con-
troll Of their dramatic development.
The humor of the characte is there,
and so is the pathos, quite as genuine
and unhackneyed in the play as in
the book, and just as potent.

the biggest drama of the day, receiv-

viewers of the metropolis. 1t is a play
of modern American life, dealing with
familiar phases of present day exist

1t is probable that one of the hap
piest men in Augusta Friday morn
ing was Hosea Butterfield, who lives
on Glendon street. Mr.. Butterfield is
a veteran of the Civil War and is a
pensioner. Thursday morning he came
uptown and went to the Granite Ma
tional Bank, where he got his pension
check for $l5 cashed, and after that
took team for a trip further up the
street. After visiting one or two
stores he had occasion to reach for
the pocketbook containing the money
and found it gone. A hurried trip
to the bank was made but the pocket
book had not been left there, and after
a further search in such places as the
old man had been after having drawn
the money at the bank he went home
disconsolate, convinced that II was
lost. The loss was keenly felt as
the money was practically all that
Mr.. Butterfield had to carry him along
until the next pension payment. 1t
so happened however that G. w. Cush-
ing of Gage street picked up the miss
ing pocketbook and it's contents near
the Merrick store on Water street and
placed an advertisement in the Fri
day morning Journal, with the result
that early in the day Mr.. Butterfleld
recovered his property.
