MUSIC AND DRAMA. Eemenyi. It is a long time since the great violiu virtuoso, Edouard Eemenyi has been heard in Portland, but the years have not affected his skill or his power to charm in the least. He appeared in the Stockbridge “Sixth Popular” last even- ing. and delighted his auditors, as was to have been expected. The violin in Eemenyi’s hands is a thing of life and power. His tone is smooth, pure and steady, and if, as has been sometimes urged, he does not disdain the little tricks that catch the crowd, it is certain every note of his playing lias something to olaim the audience’s attention and en- force their hearty applause. He is a great master of technique, and he pos- sesses much of the romanticism of the gypsy, which gives a special beauty and brilliancy to his playing. Last evening he gave Ernst’s ‘‘Othello,” a Chopin nocturne, and a little thing by Sarasate, Paganini’s “Caprices,” and took the violin part in the “Ave Maria” quartette. He was enthusiastically encored, and played the ballet music from “Sylvia.” Miss Methol of Chicago, the soprano of the troupe, displayed a sweet, pure voice, singing with much clearness. Miss Sage, the pianist and accompanist, showed a nice touch, much power and brilliancy, of execution. She had the laboring oar last night, for she was con- stantly employed. Mr. Marshbank displayed a rich, strong baritone voice, and good method. It was an excellent concert. Wilbur Opera Company. | The Wilbur Opera Company have turned away thousands from the twelve performances in Philadelphia, The en" gagement was for two weeks, and it will prove the most profitable engagement Manager Wilbur has ever ’had in that city. This company will shortly appear at Portland Theatre for one week. Master Tyler. At, the next regular Stockbridge, Mas- ter Cyril Tyler will appear, assisted by the Strakosch Opera Company. The concert will be given March 8th. The New Tork Advertiser says of him: “The audience yielded to Master Tyler ax nrsx sigux, as ne sxoou m ms surplice, a picture of cherubic loveline s, and lis- tened spell-bound to the sweet tones of the soprano voice, as he wafted out the beautiful strains of the Bach-Gounod “Ave Maria,” with the sentiment and taste of a mature singer. Charmante Oiseau, “La Perle du Bresil,” was exe- cuted with precision and finish of an ex- ceptionally high order in one so young.” TOiss Von Stosch. Miss Von Stosch, who pleased so much In her Portland concerts, played at the concert given by Mr. and Mrs. Hikisch in Boston, Tuesday, and Philip Hesh thus speaks of her: “Miss Von Stosch gave much pleasure by the delivery of her numbers. In thp “Reverie,” there was at first a lack of decided rythmic feeling, but it was only for a moment. So, too, in her perform- ance was there an occasional exaggera- tion g of intensity. Saint-Saens once wrote of Augusta "Holmes that her music showed the feminine desire to be more virile in art than is the average man; and when a woman is noisy with her orches- tra, the noise is more aggressive than that made by a resolute male composer. But Miss Von Stosch rejoices in her youth and its exuberance. The statu- esque girl tingles with temperament. The cooling years may chasten her fer- vor and give her more repose, but I doubt if even a century could rob her of musical feeling. She plays with grace, with considera- ble technical skill. This is not all; for she has the most precious of gifts, and this gift is temperament. It would no doubt be irksome for her to pin's wo still further her studies and analyze herself; To study iu quiet and deny herself the intoxication of ready applause. And yet in later years she might thank her- self for such self denial. Notes. The third recital of this season will be given by the Rossini Club this forenoon, at 11 o’clock, at Kotzschmar Hall. Hamlet, Much interest is evinced to hear Mr. Henry A. Clapp’s critique of “Hamlet,” which will be given at the Second Ad- vent church this evening. The sale of ®ekets at Coring, Short & Harmon’s in- dicates that there will be a very large at. tendance. Ho creation of Shakespeare has given rise to greater differences of opinion than the character of the “mel- ancholy Dane,” and at the hands of so devoted a scholar as Mr. Clapp an admi- rable analysis may be expected.

ItESTIEAUX CO., BOSTON, MASS. THE LOYAL LEGION. The Quarterly Meeting Held at the Falmouth Hotel, Election of Members—Touching Tributes to Ex-Preslilent Hayes and Judge Vir_ gin—Other Business of Interest. Tee March meeting of the Maine Com- mandery of the military order of the Loyal Legion was held at the Falmouth hotel last evening. Among the members present wore Gen. Thomas W. Hyde, Gen. Selden Connor, Gen. Geo. L. Beal, Maj. Sidney W. Thaxter, Col. A. C. Ham- lin, Col. P. C. Horn, Gen. Charles P. Mattocks, Maj. H. S. Barrage, Lieut. Clias. O. Hunt, Maj. C. H. Bovd, Gen. M. F. Wentworth, Lieut, j. D. Anderson, Col. Edward Moore, Maj. Charles Walk- er. Maj. D. E. Parsons, Capt. Geo. W. Verrill, Lieut. Calvin L. Hayes, Capt. Hebron Mayliew, Capt. H. C. Vaughn, Lieut. Charles W. Roberts, Gen. Joseph Smith, Capt. W. E. Dennison, Capt. Howard Sawyer. The following was elected a member of the Commandery: First class, Captain and Brevet Major Granville Blake, Au- burn. Gen. Selden Connor presented the fol- lowing memorial of Major General Ruth- erford |B. Hayes, late commander-in- chief of the order: Rutherford B. Hayes. The Commandery of the State of Maine, Military Order of the Loyal Le- gion of the United States, in all honor and affection, adds its leaf of memory to the many tributes which his attached companions and grateful countrymen have placed upon the grave of Ruther- ford Birchard Hayes, Brevet Major Gen- eral and Commander-in-Chief of the or- der, who died January 17, 1893. His record as a sol ier is honorable and without stain. He entered the service tu luc u U1 btU Utuuoo n private. On the organization of his com- pany he was elected captain. Under the ordeal of active service ho was promoted through the successive grades to the rank of colonel, October 15, 1862, of brigadier general of volunteers, October 19, 1804, and, on the 13th of March, 1865, was breveted major general “for gallant and distinguished services curing the campaigns of 1864, particularly in the battles of Winchester, Fisher’s Hill and Cedar Creek.” He resigned from the military service of the United States, June 9, 1865. The entire period of his service was passed in active and arduous duty. Five wounds received in action attested his personal bravery and his worth and efficiency as an officer were amply proved by the commendation of his superior officers and the respect and regard of all who served under him. He responded promptly to the call of his country, served her faithfully and well and sheathed his sword only when the war was ended, although months before he could have exchanged without the slightest impeachment of his honor, the military service for the post of civic use- fulness to which he had been elected. The record of his civic services is long and illustrious. He was twice elected a member of Congress, three times gov- ernor of the State of Ohio, and was President of the United States from March 4, 1877 to March 4, 1881. He was a charter member of the Ohio Com- mandery, M. O. L. L. U. O., February 7, 1883; commander from February 7, 1883 to May 4, 1887; senior vice commander- in-chief of the order from October 21, 1884 to August 5, 1888; commander-in- chief of the order from August 5, 1888, to January IT, 1893, the date of his death. The recital of his illustrious services is eloquent eulogy. Soldier, statesman, patriot, companion and citizen, in every capacity he was faithful and loyal and merited well of his countrymen, not only for duty rightly done in their behalf, but for the noble example of American man- hood he gave to the world. Under the guidance of principle anti patriotic devo- tion he steadfastly trod the path of duty with firm and assured step, without halt- ing or swerving, and therefore history Will UU1U. mm wtu J.Iimv « attends the memory of the true and just. The Loyal Legion reciprocates with full hearts the great love and honor in which he held the order and will bear in grateful remembrance the distinguished services which he took pride in render- ing it. The closing words of his address at the celebration of the 25th anniversary of the founding of the order give the keynote of his character as a statesman and pat- riot and deserve to be remembered by his countrymen and companions as the utterance of one whose deeds illustrate his precepts: “Let the American people—and espe- cially let all who stood by Lincoln on the perilous edge of battle in support of the rights of human nature—remain stead- fastly true to the ideas and the thoughts for which they fought in the great war, and \ve shall then do all that in us lies to link the destiny of our country to the stars and to entitle her institutions to share in that immortality which, under the allotment of Providence, in tho af- fairs of nations belong only to eter- nal justice in the dealings of man with his fellow man.” Gen. John Marshall Brown presented the following memorial of Col. Wm- Wirt Virgin, late colonel 23d Maine In- fantry, U. S. V.: Judge Virgin. William Wirt Virgin was born in Ilum- ford, Me., September 18, 1823. Ho was educated at Bridgton Academy and at Gould’s Academy in Bethel, and was graduated from Bowdoin College in the class of 1844. Ho studied law in the of- fice of his father at Kuinford and was ad- mitted to the Bar in Oxford county in 1847 and removing to Norway, Me., in 1849 entered upon his professional ca- reer. Interesting himself in all matters affecting the welfare of his adopted town lie was one of the founders of the military organization known as the Nor- way Light Infantry; was chosen the first captain and commissioned on the 22d September, 1855. In 1859 he was elected by the Legislature of Maine one of the three major-generals of the militia and put in charge of the third division which included the western counties of tlie state. This position Companion Virgin held at the outbreak of tho War of the Rebellion, and when, in re- sponse to President Lincoln’s call for troops, Gov. Washburn issued his Gener- al Order, No. 0, dated April 22, 1801, calling for 1000 volunteers, he was given full power for tlie organization of the regiments from the 3rd Division. By the 29th of April the 1st Regiment, chiefly com Jmsed of companies of the active militia was raised and mustered into the service of the United States, and the Governor, in general orders, an- nounced the fact, expressing at the same time his high appreciation of the services of the division commander. The 5th Regiment was raised also in the same division with scarcely an effort to secure enlistments, and left for the field on the 26tli of June. Prior to this date and upon the completion of the va- rious organizations on the 28tn of May, the Governor announed the filling of the quota, and in the general order discharg- ing the major-generals and their staff, paid a tribute to their ability and dis- cretion. Under a subsequent call for troops in 1862, our companion recruited chiefly in Oxford and Androscoggin counties the 23d Regiment, which was mustered into the service for nine months. It is said of this regimeflt that it contained less persons of foreign birth than any other raised in the state. He wras commis- sioned colonol on the 17th of October, 1862, and on the 18th the command left for Washington. His service was chiefly in the defences on the Potomac, for a portion of the time on the left bank of the river above the city, and subsequent- ly on the right bank from the chain bridge to Alexandria. In May, 1863, he was in command of the 3d Brigade, de- fences of Washingto n, south of the Poto- mac. The 28d Regiment was mustered out of service July 15, 1863, and our companion returned to the practice of his profession at Norway. He was attorney for the couhty of Ox- ford for three years and twice appointed reporter of decisions of the Supreme Ju- dicial Court, editing seven volumes of reports; was elected senator from his couutv in 1865-6, being president of the Senate the latter year, and in 1872 was appointed Associate Justice of the Su- preme Court of Maine, which position he held until his death. He died in Portland, .January 2d, itsuj. Companion Virsrin was elected a com- panion of this order November 20, 1890, insignia No.--- To his widow and his only son, also a companion of this order by inheritance, is due our heartfelt sympathy in their great bereavement. John Marshall Brown, i Commfttee. Sidney W. Ihaxter, ) The Congress of the Order meets in St. Paul, Minn., June 7th. Companion Lieut.

He was badly cut about the head, but was able to work last night. RAILROAD MATTERS. Boston & Maine. Mr. Frank Jones, chairman of the Board of Directors of the Boston & Maine, denies that Mr. McLeod lias re- signed the presidency of the Boston & Maine. Mr. Jones also denied the ru- mor that “Mr. Payson Tucker, the pres- ent general manager of the Maine Cen- tral had been or would be elected gener- al manager of the Boston & Maine and would assume the duties of his new of- fice at once.” One of the best posted note brokers in Boston says: “I think the people who expect to see the Boston & Maine in- volved with Reading are making a very great mistake. The Boston <fc Maine has a contract with the Roading, under i1, receives profitable ratos for i hauling Reading traffic on Boston & Maine rails with Boston & Maine en- gines. “The controlling powers in the Boston 1 & Maine assure me they do not own a i share in the New York & New England or Reading, either directly or indirectly. < I am told that McLeod read the pro- gramme of attack upon the Reading credit almost before its execution and got himself personally eut of the way of 1 it and saved his coal and his extension : policy through a receivership. “The McLeod people have not owned 40,000 shares of Boston & Maine, and there are not 20,000 shares of Boston & £ Maine that can get into the street in any way. The people who have managed , the Boston & Maine road the past two oap three years were never stronger than today.” OBITUARY. Joseph Russell.

Portland people may remember a sen- sation created here some over a year ago by the domestic troubles in the family of Mr. James L. McCarthy, formerly steno- grapher, for A. A. Strout, Esq. Hot be- lieving Mrs. McCarthy a proper person to have the custody of their children, Mr. McCarthy one day took the three children and went with them to Mon- treal. Mrs. McCarthy made a great lamentation which enlisted the sympaj tliies of many people in this city. She followed her husband to Montreal, and there sued him for a separation and the custody of the children. He at the same time brought a cross suit against her. The court decided the suits in favor of the mother and gave her the custody of the children; but Mr. McCarthy appealed and carriedthe case to the higher court- This court has reversed |the decision of the lower court, and has given the custo- dy of the children to the father, and an- nulled the separation. Eddie Eawler Arrested. Eddie Lawler, the boy who is charged with calling out the fire department un- necessarily last Saturday morning was ar- rested at his house on Larch court by Officer Williams last night. Lawler is about fourteen years of age and has been away on a clamming trip with his uncle and seemed very much surprised when arrested.

MUSIC AND DRAMA.

Eemenyi. It is a long time since the great violiu

virtuoso, Edouard Eemenyi has been

heard in Portland, but the years have

not affected his skill or his power to

charm in the least. He appeared in the Stockbridge “Sixth Popular” last even-

ing. and delighted his auditors, as was

to have been expected. The violin in

Eemenyi’s hands is a thing of life and

power. His tone is smooth, pure and

steady, and if, as has been sometimes urged, he does not disdain the little tricks that catch the crowd, it is certain every note of his playing lias something to olaim the audience’s attention and en-

force their hearty applause. He is a

great master of technique, and he pos- sesses much of the romanticism of the gypsy, which gives a special beauty and brilliancy to his playing. Last evening he gave Ernst’s ‘‘Othello,” a Chopin nocturne, and a little thing by Sarasate, Paganini’s “Caprices,” and took the violin part in the “Ave Maria” quartette. He was enthusiastically encored, and played the ballet music from “Sylvia.”

Miss Methol of Chicago, the soprano of the troupe, displayed a sweet, pure voice, singing with much clearness. Miss Sage, the pianist and accompanist, showed a nice touch, much power and brilliancy, of execution. She had the laboring oar last night, for she was con-

stantly employed. Mr. Marshbank displayed a rich, strong

baritone voice, and good method. It was an excellent concert.

Wilbur Opera Company. | The Wilbur Opera Company have

turned away thousands from the twelve performances in Philadelphia, The en"

gagement was for two weeks, and it will

prove the most profitable engagement Manager Wilbur has ever ’had in that city. This company will shortly appear at Portland Theatre for one week.

Master Tyler. At, the next regular Stockbridge, Mas-

ter Cyril Tyler will appear, assisted by the Strakosch Opera Company. The concert will be given March 8th. The New Tork Advertiser says of him:

“The audience yielded to Master Tyler ax nrsx sigux, as ne sxoou m ms surplice, a picture of cherubic loveline s, and lis- tened spell-bound to the sweet tones of the soprano voice, as he wafted out the beautiful strains of the Bach-Gounod “Ave Maria,” with the sentiment and taste of a mature singer. Charmante Oiseau, “La Perle du Bresil,” was exe- cuted with precision and finish of an ex-

ceptionally high order in one so young.” TOiss Von Stosch.

Miss Von Stosch, who pleased so much In her Portland concerts, played at the

concert given by Mr. and Mrs. Hikisch in

Boston, Tuesday, and Philip Hesh thus

speaks of her: “Miss Von Stosch gave much pleasure

by the delivery of her numbers. In thp “Reverie,” there was at first a lack of decided rythmic feeling, but it was only for a moment. So, too, in her perform- ance was there an occasional exaggera- tion g of intensity. Saint-Saens once wrote of Augusta "Holmes that her music showed the feminine desire to be more virile in art than is the average man; and when a woman is noisy with her orches- tra, the noise is more aggressive than that made by a resolute male composer.

But Miss Von Stosch rejoices in her

youth and its exuberance. The statu-

esque girl tingles with temperament. The cooling years may chasten her fer- vor and give her more repose, but I doubt if even a century could rob her of musical feeling.

She plays with grace, with considera- ble technical skill. This is not all; for she has the most precious of gifts, and this gift is temperament. It would no

doubt be irksome for her to pin's wo still further her studies and analyze herself; To study iu quiet and deny herself the intoxication of ready applause. And yet in later years she might thank her- self for such self denial.

Notes.

The third recital of this season will be given by the Rossini Club this forenoon, at 11 o’clock, at Kotzschmar Hall.

Hamlet,

Much interest is evinced to hear Mr.

Henry A. Clapp’s critique of “Hamlet,” which will be given at the Second Ad- vent church this evening. The sale of

®ekets at Coring, Short & Harmon’s in-

dicates that there will be a very large at.

tendance. Ho creation of Shakespeare has given rise to greater differences of

opinion than the character of the “mel- ancholy Dane,” and at the hands of so

devoted a scholar as Mr. Clapp an admi- rable analysis may be expected.

THE LOYAL LEGION.

The Quarterly Meeting Held at the Falmouth Hotel, —

Election of Members—Touching Tributes

to Ex-Preslilent Hayes and Judge Vir_ gin—Other Business of Interest.

Tee March meeting of the Maine Com-

mandery of the military order of the

Loyal Legion was held at the Falmouth hotel last evening. Among the members present wore Gen. Thomas W. Hyde, Gen. Selden Connor, Gen. Geo. L. Beal, Maj. Sidney W. Thaxter, Col. A. C. Ham-

lin, Col. P. C. Horn, Gen. Charles P.

Mattocks, Maj. H. S. Barrage, Lieut.

Clias. O. Hunt, Maj. C. H. Bovd, Gen. M. F. Wentworth, Lieut, j. D. Anderson, Col. Edward Moore, Maj. Charles Walk- er. Maj. D. E. Parsons, Capt. Geo. W. Verrill, Lieut. Calvin L. Hayes, Capt. Hebron Mayliew, Capt. H. C. Vaughn, Lieut. Charles W. Roberts, Gen. Joseph Smith, Capt. W. E. Dennison, Capt. Howard Sawyer.

The following was elected a member of

the Commandery: First class, Captain and Brevet Major Granville Blake, Au- burn.

Gen. Selden Connor presented the fol- lowing memorial of Major General Ruth-

erford |B. Hayes, late commander-in- chief of the order:

Rutherford B. Hayes.

The Commandery of the State of

Maine, Military Order of the Loyal Le-

gion of the United States, in all honor and affection, adds its leaf of memory to the many tributes which his attached companions and grateful countrymen have placed upon the grave of Ruther- ford Birchard Hayes, Brevet Major Gen-

eral and Commander-in-Chief of the or-

der, who died January 17, 1893. His record as a sol ier is honorable and without stain. He entered the service tu luc u U1 btU Utuuoo n

private. On the organization of his com-

pany he was elected captain. Under the ordeal of active service ho was promoted through the successive grades to the rank of colonel, October 15, 1862, of brigadier general of volunteers, October 19, 1804, and, on the 13th of March, 1865, was breveted major general “for gallant and distinguished services curing the

campaigns of 1864, particularly in the battles of Winchester, Fisher’s Hill and Cedar Creek.” He resigned from the military service of the United States, June 9, 1865. The entire period of his service was passed in active and arduous

duty. Five wounds received in action attested his personal bravery and his worth and efficiency as an officer were

amply proved by the commendation of his superior officers and the respect and regard of all who served under him. He responded promptly to the call of his country, served her faithfully and well and sheathed his sword only when the war was ended, although months before he could have exchanged without the slightest impeachment of his honor, the military service for the post of civic use- fulness to which he had been elected.

The record of his civic services is long and illustrious. He was twice elected a member of Congress, three times gov- ernor of the State of Ohio, and was President of the United States from March 4, 1877 to March 4, 1881. He was a charter member of the Ohio Com- mandery, M. O. L. L. U. O., February 7, 1883; commander from February 7, 1883 to May 4, 1887; senior vice commander- in-chief of the order from October 21, 1884 to August 5, 1888; commander-in- chief of the order from August 5, 1888, to January IT, 1893, the date of his death.

The recital of his illustrious services is eloquent eulogy. Soldier, statesman, patriot, companion and citizen, in every capacity he was faithful and loyal and merited well of his countrymen, not only for duty rightly done in their behalf, but for the noble example of American man- hood he gave to the world. Under the guidance of principle anti patriotic devo- tion he steadfastly trod the path of duty with firm and assured step, without halt- ing or swerving, and therefore history Will UU1U. mm wtu J.Iimv «

attends the memory of the true and just. The Loyal Legion reciprocates with

full hearts the great love and honor in which he held the order and will bear in

grateful remembrance the distinguished services which he took pride in render-

ing it. The closing words of his address at the

celebration of the 25th anniversary of the founding of the order give the keynote of his character as a statesman and pat- riot and deserve to be remembered by his countrymen and companions as the utterance of one whose deeds illustrate his precepts:

“Let the American people—and espe- cially let all who stood by Lincoln on the

perilous edge of battle in support of the

rights of human nature—remain stead- fastly true to the ideas and the thoughts for which they fought in the great war, and \ve shall then do all that in us lies to link the destiny of our country to the stars and to entitle her institutions to share in that immortality which, under the allotment of Providence, in tho af- fairs of nations belong only to eter- nal justice in the dealings of man with his fellow man.”

Gen. John Marshall Brown presented the following memorial of Col. Wm-

Wirt Virgin, late colonel 23d Maine In-

fantry, U. S. V.:

Judge Virgin. William Wirt Virgin was born in Ilum-

ford, Me., September 18, 1823. Ho was

educated at Bridgton Academy and at Gould’s Academy in Bethel, and was

graduated from Bowdoin College in the class of 1844. Ho studied law in the of- fice of his father at Kuinford and was ad- mitted to the Bar in Oxford county in 1847 and removing to Norway, Me., in 1849 entered upon his professional ca- reer. Interesting himself in all matters affecting the welfare of his adopted town lie was one of the founders of the military organization known as the Nor- way Light Infantry; was chosen the first captain and commissioned on the 22d September, 1855. In 1859 he was

elected by the Legislature of Maine one

of the three major-generals of the militia and put in charge of the third division which included the western counties of tlie state. This position Companion Virgin held at the outbreak of tho War of the Rebellion, and when, in re-

sponse to President Lincoln’s call for troops, Gov. Washburn issued his Gener- al Order, No. 0, dated April 22, 1801, calling for 1000 volunteers, he was given

full power for tlie organization of the regiments from the 3rd Division.

By the 29th of April the 1st Regiment, chiefly com Jmsed of companies of the active militia was raised and mustered into the service of the United States, and the Governor, in general orders, an- nounced the fact, expressing at the same time his high appreciation of the services of the division commander.

The 5th Regiment was raised also in the same division with scarcely an effort to secure enlistments, and left for the field on the 26tli of June. Prior to this date and upon the completion of the va- rious organizations on the 28tn of May, the Governor announed the filling of the quota, and in the general order discharg- ing the major-generals and their staff, paid a tribute to their ability and dis- cretion.

Under a subsequent call for troops in 1862, our companion recruited chiefly in Oxford and Androscoggin counties the 23d Regiment, which was mustered into the service for nine months. It is said of this regimeflt that it contained less persons of foreign birth than any other raised in the state. He wras commis- sioned colonol on the 17th of October, 1862, and on the 18th the command left for Washington. His service was chiefly in the defences on the Potomac, for a

portion of the time on the left bank of the river above the city, and subsequent- ly on the right bank from the chain bridge to Alexandria. In May, 1863, he was in command of the 3d Brigade, de- fences of Washingto n, south of the Poto- mac. The 28d Regiment was mustered out of service July 15, 1863, and our

companion returned to the practice of his profession at Norway.

He was attorney for the couhty of Ox- ford for three years and twice appointed reporter of decisions of the Supreme Ju- dicial Court, editing seven volumes of

reports; was elected senator from his couutv in 1865-6, being president of the Senate the latter year, and in 1872 was

appointed Associate Justice of the Su-

preme Court of Maine, which position he held until his death. He died in Portland, .January 2d, itsuj.

Companion Virsrin was elected a com-

panion of this order November 20, 1890, insignia No.---

To his widow and his only son, also a

companion of this order by inheritance, is due our heartfelt sympathy in their

great bereavement. John Marshall Brown, i Commfttee.

A Narrow Escape.

As Mr. George Fenlev of the Argus, was coming up Franklin street yester- day afternoon, a large piece of ice fell from the roof of No. 137 on that street, and struck Mr. Fenley, knocking him

down. lie was quite overcome by the blow for a time, but was assisted to his

feet, and it was desired to send a car-

riage for him, but ho would not consent. He was badly cut about the head, but was able to work last night.

RAILROAD MATTERS.

Boston & Maine.

Mr. Frank Jones, chairman of the Board of Directors of the Boston &

Maine, denies that Mr. McLeod lias re-

signed the presidency of the Boston &

Maine. Mr. Jones also denied the ru-

mor that “Mr. Payson Tucker, the pres- ent general manager of the Maine Cen- tral had been or would be elected gener- al manager of the Boston & Maine and would assume the duties of his new of- fice at once.”

One of the best posted note brokers in

Boston says: “I think the people who expect to see the Boston & Maine in-

volved with Reading are making a very

great mistake. The Boston <fc Maine has

a contract with the Roading, under i1, receives profitable ratos for i

hauling Reading traffic on Boston &

Maine rails with Boston & Maine en-

gines. “The controlling powers in the Boston 1

& Maine assure me they do not own a i

share in the New York & New England or Reading, either directly or indirectly. <

I am told that McLeod read the pro- gramme of attack upon the Reading credit almost before its execution and got himself personally eut of the way of 1

it and saved his coal and his extension :

policy through a receivership. “The McLeod people have not owned

40,000 shares of Boston & Maine, and there are not 20,000 shares of Boston & £ Maine that can get into the street in any

way. The people who have managed ,

the Boston & Maine road the past two

oap three years were never stronger than

today.” OBITUARY.

Joseph Russell, one of Portland’s old- 1

est citizens, and for over half a century, £

identified with the carriage business in £

tbiS'Cittf,. died at the residence of his 1 -I n_nrnn, TTL.K-- uaugubui iu -*- "—17

A full vote means Republican victory. Register!__ Decision Reversed in tlie McCarthy Case.

Portland people may remember a sen-

sation created here some over a year ago

by the domestic troubles in the family of

Mr. James L. McCarthy, formerly steno-

grapher, for A. A. Strout, Esq. Hot be-

lieving Mrs. McCarthy a proper person to have the custody of their children, Mr. McCarthy one day took the three

children and went with them to Mon-

treal. Mrs. McCarthy made a great lamentation which enlisted the sympaj tliies of many people in this city. She followed her husband to Montreal, and there sued him for a separation and the

custody of the children. He at the same

time brought a cross suit against her. The court decided the suits in favor of

the mother and gave her the custody of

the children; but Mr. McCarthy appealed and carriedthe case to the higher court-

This court has reversed |the decision of

the lower court, and has given the custo-

dy of the children to the father, and an-

nulled the separation. Eddie Eawler Arrested.

Eddie Lawler, the boy who is charged with calling out the fire department un-

necessarily last Saturday morning was ar-

rested at his house on Larch court by Officer Williams last night. Lawler is about fourteen years of age and has been

away on a clamming trip with his uncle and seemed very much surprised when arrested.
