Advice to Mothers.—Mbs. Winslow’
Soothing Svrup should always bo used when
children are cutting teotb. It relieves the lit
tle safferer at once; it produces natural, quiet
sleep by relieving the child from pain, and the
little cherub awakes as “bright as a button.”
It is very pleasant to taste. It soothes the
child, softens the gums, allays all pain, relieves
wiud, regulates the bowels, and is the best
known remedy for diarrhoea, whether arising
from teething or other causes. Twenty-fivo
cents a bottle.

Annual Meeting of the Society—Election
of Officers and Report of the Secre
tary.
The onnnal meeting of the Womans Christ
ian Temperance Union was held at the Friend
ly Inn Saturday afternoon. Devotional exer
-- ciBes were led by Rev. Mr. McWhinnie.
The Recording Secretary made the following
report.
secretary’s report.
In presenting the seventh annual report of
this Spciety, I must confine myself to mere
facts, and those but meagre, concerning its
work. The details cannot be brought ont in
such a report, and the results and good accom
plished cannot be estimated and presented.
The large and regular attendance at the
business meetings has evinced the interest of
the ladies. These meetings have been preceded
by a devotional meeting of half an hour.
Throughout the year Sabbath evening meet
ings have been hel<^t the Inn, except during
the summer months, when there have been
out-of-door meetings. The attendance on these
has been larger than in former years.
Thursday evening meetings for the instruc
tion of children and youths in the principles
of temperance and sobriety have been held,
until the vacation season, with encouraging
results.
Much has been done in the way of repairs
about the Inn, which has afforded a home free
from temptation to many men.
The department of the Police Mission would
show the greatest amount of labor resulting
in permanent good, could we only give the de
tails and results. During the year the matron
has met at the station 225 women and girls,
with all of whom she has had more or less con
versation, and to many of whom she and the
station committee have rendered much valua
ble aid in the way of encouragement to and as
sistance in the right wav of living. 'One young
girl has been sent to the Industrial School, and
from several placed there by this Union we
hear encouraging reports. Some of the wom
en who had no homes, have been provided
with them in the country, where they can earn
an honest living; others have been sent to the
Temporary Home, which has most generonsly
received them and wisely cared for them. In
as far as possible, the police matron and sta
tion committee keep a watch and guard over
all thoee who come under their care at the sta
tion and Greeley Hospital, where regnlar calls
are also made. Frequent visits are made on
these women at their homes in the city, and
communication is kept up with those oat of
town.
The Flower Mission, during the summer has
distributed over 500 bouquetB in the hosoitals,
jail, orphan asylum and the Bethel, and to
sick individuals at their homes.
Three times the Union has come before the
public in a money-making way, for v e need
much money in carrying on the work. The
people generously responded to the calls to
supply the restaurants of last October, and of
June and July of this yea.'. To all who aided
we tender hearty thanks and bespeak their
kind services for future occasions
Respectfully submitted.

not over twelve years of age, entered the
stable of George Tucker, the hackman, on
India street, through a small window and
gathered into two bags all the movable prop
erty that they could get away with. They
took rubber coats and hats, a heavy overcoat,
a couple of pairs of trousers, overalls, nieces
of harnesses, buckles, belts, a hackman’s
badge, and old iron. They got out of the
stable as they had got in, and were making for
a junk store when they were noticed by Officer
Stover, who btarted in pursuit. Young Bas
sett dropped the bag which lie was carrying
and escaped, as did also one of the other boys.

Stover. ___

MOSIC AND DRAMA.
THE WEATHERCOCK.
That our leaders may know something of the
“ Weatheicock,” the opera in which the Ideals
will appear at City Hall, October (ith, wo will
say that the opera, under the original name,
“La Girouette,” was brought out fiist about
lour years ago in Paris, at the Theatre des
Fantasies Parisiens, and was written by MM.
Emile Emery and Henri Bocage, the music by
M Coedes. The adaptation to be used by the
! “rdeals” has been made by Mr. Oscar Weil,
who made such a success in the version of the
“Musketeers,” brought out by the same com
pany last season. erodes, the composer of
“The Weathercock,” was a prompter at the
Paris Opera aud is described as being one of
the jolliest of good fellows, who waited so long
for luck to strike him that when at last lie
scored a success with his opera his good for
tune and consequent surprise turned bis head
temporarily and sent him to an asylum. The
opera was put, on at Daly’s Theatre, New
York, a couple of seasons ago, the translation
being that made by Mr. Fred Williams, but
the production by the "Ideals” will bo the
first presentation of the work in this country
by au operatic organization. The action of
the opera takes place in Hungary a century or
more ago, giving a chance, which will be im
proved, of costuming the principals and cho
rus in the picturesque fashions of the period,
ike story turns on the love of a gallant for the
Princess Froderiqne, who is betrothed from
babyhood to Enstache, a grandee of Spain.
The gallant Hildebert takes advantage of
r*epin s instability of character to assume to
be Eustache, aud holds off his rival and be
wilders the father long enough to marry the
Princess, while the true Eustache falls in love
with a maid, and so is content. The situa
tions of the book are happily suited to give
constant stage action in ali the scenes, aud
Mr. Weil’s clever work in the dialogue adap
tation promises to go far in securing a success
for the opera. The music is said to be bright

many elements of popularity, “the Weather

HEARTS OK OAK.
Wednesday night Herne’s “Hearts of Oak"
will be produced at Portland Theatre. The
New York Herald says:
"Hearts of Oak” as given by Mr. Jas, A.
Herne’-s company, was accorded a hearty re
ception last eveniug by a large audience at
Colonel Sinn’s Brooklyn Park Theatre. The
picturesque drama, which was handsomely
mounted, was artistically rendered by Mr.
Heme, Miss Katherine Corcoran, aDd the oth
er members. Since the presentation of “Hearts
of Oak” in that city last season, several novel
effects have been introduced in the stage ma
chinery.
rice’s surprise party.
Rice’s Surprise Party will appear at Port
land Theatre next Friday and Saturday. An
exchange says: “ ‘Pop’ is one of those odd lit
tle pieces made op of odds and ends, in which
the plot (if it may be termed sneb) is forgotten
and the attention of the auditor is entirely en
grossed by the excellence of the specialties
which follow each other so rapidly. However
its serves its purpose well, as it affords oppor
tunities to all the members of the company to
appear to good advantage. The star of the
company is John A. Mackay, the comedian.
He is happy in the possession of a good voice,
correct enunciation and an elastic face, which
he distorts as occasion requires. His facial ex
pression is good—far beyond the average.
While he is original in hiB characters, he
shows himself to be a good imitator. His imi
tations of John T. Raymond, Robson and oth
ers last evening, were truthful pieces of acting.
His versatility as to dialect was shown in the
poem, ‘Barbara Frietohie.’ In this he is inim
itable. Mr. George Fortesqne, long known to
the burlesque stage, shows himself at best in
the third act, when in female attire. He is
clever in almost everything he undertakes.
Among the ladies honors were evenly divided
last evening between Miss Kate Castleton and
Miss Irene Perry. The. former, attired in a
Quakeress habit, made a decided hit, as did
also the latter in a recitation, followed by a
ballad. Both received .elegant floral offerings
from friends in the audience. The Misses
May Stembler, Lillie Giubb and Ida Smith,
the Tyrolean Warblers, received a heartv en
core after their first song. It may be said that,
aside from the unmistakable talent apparent in
each one of the young ladies, their personal
appearance is very favorable.' ”
THE STOCKBRIDGE COURSE.
The City Council recently passed an order
prohibiting the placing of chairs in the aisles
in City Hall, and hereafter none such will be
allowed in any aisle upon any occasion wha .
ever. Mr. Stockbridge, not knowing of this
decision, sold a few chairs for his course. The
Mayor declines to make an exception in this
case, so that the holders of tickets to chairs
will have exchange them for some other loca
tion.
The following will be the cast of “Fra Diav
olo,” to be given by the “Ideals” in the Stock
bridge course:

NOTES.
According to “Gath’s" description, Mr.
Steele Mackaye’s theatre chair only needs an
opera glass and lunch counter attachment to
fill every desire of the oldest babitue’s heart.
The burden of the new play, “Warranted,"
to be produced at the Boston Museum to-night,
will rest largely upon Mr. George Wilson,
who is expected to repeat the wonderful suc
cess which he made in the role of the deaf old
boatbuilder in "The Guv’nor ”
It is said that Rose Coghlan has ordered
from Paris six gorgeous costumes for the com
ing season, which will make all the women
who go to see her play green with envy. One
dress is to be of old cream lace, trimmed with
silk. Gold buttons are to be the striking fea
ture of the toilet. Miss Coghlan can afford to
give her modiste carte blanche, for she has
made a great deal of money this year.
Mrs. May Newman, a well-known lady of
Wilton, has adopted the stage as a profession,
and is meeting with great success as Mabel
Huntington in the Boston Theatre “World”
company.
Mme. Bernhardt had an 'immense reception
Tuesday night, in Paris, at the opening of her
own theatre under her own management. She
played “Frou-Frou,” and appeared in the first
act dressed in a beautifully-fitting dark blue
riding habit, which made her look singularly
girlish and pretty.
With Mr. Edwin Booth on Chestnut street,
Boston, Mr. Howells on Louisburg square, and
Mr. Aldrich on Mount Vernon street, that lo
cality will begin to assume quite a literary and
histrionic air.
, Fish.
There is a dedided improvement in the fish
trade. Orders for mackerel have been coming
in quite freely during the past week, and not
withstanding the increased receipts stocks in
dealers’ hands are materially reduced. The
shore fleet landed 13,000 barrels at
the various outports for the week closing Sat
urday, but all were quickly disposed of at an
advance on previous prices. The fishin ; sea
son is rapidly drawing to a close, and there is
little prospect of a much larger catch, though
the vessels which arrived early in the week
brought in large fares. At the high prices
now ruling the lucky vessels are doing well,
and some of them will realize large sums for
the season’s work, but the great bulk of the
fleet are still without a catch and the average
earnings will be very small.
The quantity of mackerel landed by the
New England fleet at all port^ for the week
was 13,103 barrels against 9,900 barrels for
same week in 1882 and 11,238 barrels fn 1881.
There has been a short supply of nearly all
kinds of fresh fish during the week, and deal
ers found considerable difficulty in filling
orders.
The Dominion Line.
Mr. Lemon of Liverpool, marine superin
tendent of the Dominion line, was kicked by a
horse recently, and so badly injured that he
will lose one leg. This has incapacitated him
from duty and he has resigned. Capt. Archi
bald Beid, shore captain of the line here, but
wbo was captain on the Brooklyn on her re
tarn to England, is now filling the position of
superintendent temporarily and will probably
be appointed Mr. Lemon’s successor.
Capt. Williams, of the Oregon, has resumed
command of his ship. A short time previqns
to Capt. Beid’s return to Liverpool he acted as
marine superintendent of the line.
The new ship Vancouver of the lino, whose
keel was laid last March, is rapidly nearing
completion and is expected to make her first
trip to this port next April.
Forest Fires in Scarboro.
The forest fire in Scarboro has assumed dan
gerous proportions. It rages from near the
Portland & Saco road almost to Ling’s race
course a distance of three miles. More tkau a
thousand acres have been burned over and
quite a number of houses and barns were in
danger yesterday. A large force of men and
teams are engaged plowing and setting back
fires and trying to stop the progress of the fire
and save threatened property.
PULPIT AND PLATFORM.
SECOND PARISH CHURCH.
Rev. Dr. B. Payson Thwing of Brooklyn, N.
Y., preached at the Payson Memorial oharch
yesterday a sermon appropriate to the 2Bth an
niversary of his ordination in this city Sept.
22,1858. His theme was "Spiritual Architec
ture, its laws aud lessons,” 1 Kings 6: 7. We
are, he said, all builders. We are building all
the time. Asia the physical, so in the moral
universe,the builders rect not,day or night. The
rivers seek the sea The skies woo the waters
back to their bosom but only to drop them
once more upon the earth, watering the hills
from their chambers to sot free again the
streams in their journey to the deep. The
coral reefs are built by unresting toilers. The
vital forces of the body are ceaseless in their
play, alooit automatic, while the work ol the
Spiritual architect is voluntary and never
loses its moral quality. Much of tho work, too,
is a silent one. Dr. Thwing dwelt on this and
showed that our unhistoric years, our'sequester
ed activities form a vital factor of the success
which after days reveal. Great thinkers, from
Moses down, have loved solitude. The Jesuits
put their novitiates under the discipline of
solitude. Its relation to scholarship end to
profound piety is apparent. Again, tho Syrian
hills whence the materials of the temple were
brought picture the formative and probatiou
ary features of this life. Reference was made
to the fashioning of the masonry of the New
York post office which the preacher witnessed
at Dix Island. The Lord knoweth them that
are his. There ss no confusion or change or
loss. Another principle is tiie mutual uuion
of social interests involved. We build into
each other, uplifting in the case of a noble
character, or giving a downward pull, whan
the foundations are inadequate or the materials
are poor or the plans aud specifications of the
Master Architect are overlooked. The solem
nity of a work so unique,so vast and so sublime
in its beneficent aud eternal issues was un
folded.
Prof. Thwing then briefly referred to the
circumstances of his coming to Portland to
assume the pastorate of the St. Lawrence
street church, a colony of the Second church;
the welcome received from Pastors Carrutbers,
Dwight, Chickering, Bradley, Merrill and
others; the great revival oflS58; local events
like the visit of the Prince of Wales, the ex
pected visit of the Great Bastern, the bucsting
forth of the Rebellion and the departure of
the Maine troops. He si>oke of the sixteen
years given to pastoral labors and nine to au- ,
thorship and workin theological or college
classes among churches in various places in
this and. in foreign lands. He had spest five
summers iu Europe and enjoyed preaching to
believers of different denominations and
nationalities from Troudlijem, Norway on the
north, to Barcelona in Spain on the south. It
had beeu a growing joy to preach the gospel of
Christ, though painfully conscious of personal
defects and limitations. The discourse closed
with warm gratulations at the prospects before
the Second Parish and the earnest wish that
their spiritual advancement might equ^l aud
surpass their temporal prosperity.
WILLMTON CHUECH.
A congregation filling every available space
iu the audience room and vestry assembled to
greet Rev. P. E. Clark yesterday on the occasion
of his preaching liiB last sermon previous to
taking his leave of this city.
He did not in any sense preach a farewell
sermon, bnt one in his usual vein^helpful and
hopeful. His text was from Col. i, 18: “And
Ho is the head of the body, the Church.”
The pastor spoke of the many names by
which the church is called in the Bible. By
these names God shows His love for the church
and His ownership iu it. As a man’s word is
involved in his business, so God’s.Word is in
volved in preserving and oaring for the church.
Because He has voluntarily assumed the Head
ship of the church, therefore all Christ’s
power is involved in maintaining its su
premacy.
He said he had no wish to look back and tell
of figures of the past, but he could tell them
who had pledged them his love: This.is not
my church, nor your church, but one branch
of Christ’s church, and to you is the assurance,
“Lo, I am with 50a alway.”
Six children were baptized previous to the
sermon.
From other sources we gather the following
facts in relation to this church which Mr.
Clark leaves after a pastorate of seven years:
Mr. Clark was installed October 19, 187G, over
whit was then a email church of fil members,
worshipping in a chapel ou Dauforth street:
since that time there has been a steady and
continuous growth, some being received at
every Communion until now the number of
church members is nearly or quite 350. These
meet for worship in a haudsome and convenient
church, free from debt and in good financial
standing. There is a Sabbath school of nearly
400 members and a “Society of Christian En
deavor ’ of 150 or more. From these facts it
would seem that Mr. Clark does not leave
because discouraged for want of results.
That he is appreciated is a fact that is patent
to everyone.
He has received several testimonials of affec
tion from his people since his resignation,
among which we have only space to mention a
beautiful painting by oar artist H. B. Brown,
Esq., given him by the society of Christian En
deavor, and a fine and costly gold headed cane
from two of his church members.
We cannct gain any better idea of the feel
iue which goes with him thau in the words
ivrilten a short time since of him by one of the
ladies of his church:
There was a time wlie» we were few, and small
Our place among the churches. But there came
One scut to be our pastor in the name
Of Him who knows his flock; and sceiDg all
Their need, and all the work, knows whom to call.
We know his life, his labors, and the same
Unfaltering purpose which has been his aim,
Since first we hearcTthe Master’s message fall
From out his servant’s lips. And more and more
Have come to ns to whom his words have been
A fragrance, as of life to truer life.
Seeking to reach the young, an open door
Was set before him, and he entered in,—
God grant that he unnumbered souls may win!
At a meeting recently held a series of resolu
tions wore passed accepting Mr. Clark’s resigna
tion and expressing the grief felt by the society
at the separation of pastor and people, and ap
pointing Messrs I. P. Warren, J. H. True and
J. F. Jeffords a committee tocall a council and
to represent the church before it. The council
has been called to meet at the chapel on
Wednesday, 26th inst., at 3 o’clock p. m.
people’s gospel meetings.
Mrs Anna E. Smith, from New York city,
preached yesterday in Carlton Hall, at the
corner of Cumberland and Lafayette streets,
and will do so every evening through the
following week excfept Friday. Every body is
invited to come and bring gospel hymns with
them.
NOTE8.
There are eight ministers in Maine who have
been ordained fifty-one years or more, and the
venerable Dr. Carruthers of this city has been
in the ministry for the remarkable period of
three-score and four years. One of the eight,
Rev. J. T. Hawes of Litchfield, still supplies
for the church ;iu that place. Of the remain
ing 181 ministers in the State, twenty-two
have been ordained 44 years, twenty-six 35
years, thirty 25 years, thirty-two 15 years, and
seventy-one 5 years.
FREE STREET BAPTIST CHURCfl.
Anniversary Exorcises of Its Sabbath
School.
Tho Sabbath school in connection with this
church observed its forty-seventh anniversary
last evening. No elaborate floral display was
attempted, bat the decorations were in Excel
lent taste. There were banks of flowers taste
fully arranged on either side of ihe desk, vines
were trailed gracefully from the same, and a
beautiful star made of roses, a memorial 'em
blem, was hung from its oentre. Potted plants
were grouped attractively about, and several
memorial emblems beside the one above men
tioned were furnished by friends. The exer
cises were interesting and enjoyed by the large
audience present.
The programme consisted of responsive
Scripture readings, with singing by the prim
ary department and tho church choir. Ad
dresses were made at their conclusion by Dr,
A. K. P. Small of the B'irst Baptist church,
and llev. James McWhinnie, the pastor.
The report of tho Superiu lender,t, A. S.
Melcher, showed the school to be in a flourish
ing condition. In the Secretary’s report the
total membership of the school was given as
318, with an average attendance of 173. Two
members of the school have died during the
past year, and niue from the school have
united with the church.
The Treasurer’s report gave the receipts of
the school for the past year as $290.03, and
expenditures $223.82. The report of the
Librarian showed tho library to be in good con
dition. The sobool enters upon the forty
eighth year of its existsnce with excellent
promise of usefulness.
