F. A. WILNER, QEOKfOE E. COX THE AT RIC A TOJ ICS Boston Opera Company It will be of immense interest to those opera lovers who do not live in Boston to learn a the Boston Opera company is ready to assure out-of-town patrons that the performances during the coming season will terminate in ample time for them to catch their trains. Besides, tbe management has negotiated with the various railroads entering Boston for an arrangement whereby special cars to accommodate the opera-going pub- li will be attached the (rains going into and leaving Boston on the nights of the performances.

With these added accommodations there is no doubt that the liberal patronage extended by New Englanders at large to the Boston Opera Company during the last season will be still further increased for the artists comprising the operatic troupe of Boston form a galaxy of stars probably never before equalled in the history of grand opera, and the repertoire comprises thirty-two standard operas, while the productions arc to surpaass in ensemble and brilliancy of stage effect even those of last year which placed the Boston Opera House almost at once in the forefront of the world's operatic institutions. For the further accommodations of its out-of-town patrcms the Boston Opera company has inaugurated a mail order system which will enable those desirous of hearing a certain opera to secure their scats in advance and enjoy an opera performance without taking the chance of encountering a sold-out house. A letter, with check or money order, addressed to the Box Office of the Boston Opera House, will be given immediate attention and as a week's repertoire is given out several days in advaiuc it is very easy to decide and make arrangements for any given night. The opening performance of the second season will take place on Monday evening, Nov. 27, when Boi- StroeKco, and Maria Claessens.

nahio Com! will conduct. On Wednesday evening, Nov. 9 Verdi's "Rigclctto" in Italian will be given with George llakanoff in the' nanie part, Gilda will be sung by Lydla Lijikowska, the Uuke by Cons a i and Sparafucile by Sibiria- koff; others in the cast are Maria Claessens, Savage, Marie Rogers, Jeska Swartz, Guiseppe Perini, A i i Puleini, Huddy and Ernesto Giaocone. Wallace Goodrich will conduct. On Friday evening, Nov.

William A. Brady 'will shortly b'e- ijin rehearsals of a new play by Hayden Talbot, called "In God's Country." The scenes are laid in Arizona, -iid Mr. Brady plans an enormous production with a hundred cowboys and Indians. Pawnee Bill has agreed to stage the big acts.

"Way Down East" is playing its sixteenth consecutive year in first elass theatres.

This breaks all records for any American play that was protected by the copyright laws. Even "Uncle Tom's Cabin" was relegated to the cheap houses long ago. It is told in Cleveland, Detroit, Cincinnati and some of the other cities played by this re.markable drama this year, a its receipts far exceeded those of "touted recent New York A COLORED MAN FOR HIGH OFFICE To Be Assitant Attorney General of the United States Washington, 2G President ska in the i role.

in the Universalist church. The following record of the Revolutionary tablets in and near Portsmouth will interest them: Portsmouth IB full of Revolutionary memories, hut only seven Revolutionary bronze tablets can be found in this city and vicinity; one erected by the Society of Colonial Wars in the State of New Hampshire, five by the Society of the Sons of the Revolution of the State of New Hampshire, and one by the Paul Jones Club of Portsmouth, Sous of the American Revolution. The Inscriptions are follows, and though entirely in capital letters on the tablets, are here otherwise printed: New Castle--On the outer wall of Fort Constitution, near the gate: "In commemoration, of the first victory of the American Revolution. The capture, on this site, of Fort William and Mary 14-15 December, 1774. In admiration of the gallantry of Capt.

John Langdon end Maj. John Sullivan, leaders of the assaults In memory of the patriots who captured the fort and removed the guns and stores.

"Colonel Tobias Lear was born in this house In 1760.

He was Geoj-ge Washington's secretary from 1783 to 1799. Washington visited here in 1789. This tablet is placed by the Society of the Sons of the Revolution of the State of New Hampshire, 1899."

Erected by the Paul Jones Club of Portsmouth, Sons of the American Revolution 1903." Undoubtedly the most historic spot in Portsmouth---where the spark of American Liberty first shone forth-is not yet marked by a bronze tablet! Will not the Daughters of the American Revolution undertake the work? The "Liberty flag pole" at "Liberty Bridge" at the junction of Water and Marcy streets, Portsmouth, reminds historical students that January 9, 1760, ten years before the Declaration of Independence, our ancestors in protest against the odious stamp act passed by Farllament In 1765, marched through the streets of carrying the New Hampshire stamp agent's commission In triumph on the front of a sword, exposed to the public view, and bear- Ing a flag on which was inscribed in large letters, the words: "Liberty, property and no and raised upon a flag-staff erected for the occasion at "Swing-Bridge," called from that day forward "Liberty Bridge," this, the first "no stamp flag" ever displayed in the American colonies Here a new pole was erected July 4, 1824, in the same spot as the original; and It was renewed July 4, 1899, as told in the inscription thereon: (On Shield) "Erected July 4, 1824, in Commemoration of July 4, 1770, that Declared Our Emancipation From Tyrany and Gave Us The Privileges of Freemen." (On Pole) "Liberty Flag Pole renewed July 1899." But these Inscriptions do not tell he story of the "No stamp flag," which hould in lasting bronze be here made uiown to every passer. JOSEPH, FOSTER.
