George B. Adams of Northboro died of consumption, Thursday aiteruoou, immediately after hit arrival home from the Adirondack, where be went some three mouths ago In hope of regaining his health. Accompanied by his wife and other friends, he arrived here od the Saratoga traiu and left on the 4.10 P. train for Northboro.

Three months ago the Northboro Orthodox nociety voted Mr. Adams leave of absence in order that he might recuperate his failing health, being then in the first stages of consumption. His last sermon, a memorial one, was preached May 29, to deliver which he came from a sick room. The prophecy that he at that time preached his own funeral discourse proved too true. About 50 of the relatives and friends of Charles Q.

Walker and wife assembled at their residence on Water street, Thursday evening, and, quietly taking possession of the premises, proceeded to curtail the privileges of the host and hostess, by refusing admission to the kitchen, where by the aid of an outside door they proceeded to make ready for the crowning event of the evening. When all was prepared, Mr. and Mrs. Walker were escorted to the kitchen, where Major C. C.

Emory of an eloquent speech, reminded them that this was the 15th anniversary of their marriage, and in behalf of their many friends, presented them with an elegant decorated China dinner set, consisting of 150 pieces, for which Mr. and Mrs. Walk er returned their thanks. During the evening a bountiful collation was served. The "doctor" being present with a "Stom ach Pump, no serions results followed, although at one time it looked rather dark.

Juliet by Flortsce CHllette't ComMnatioa. Florence Gillette's dramatic company will play "Borneo and Joiiet" in city ball on Thursday evening, Sept. 1st. The Daily Telegraph of St. John, N.

in its issue of August 16, says; "The opening night of tbe Florence Gillette's dramatic company was a signal success. The house was well filled with a fashionable audience. It is very doubtful if the presentation of Romeo and Juliet ever afforded better satisfaction in thoroughness of detail, stage setting, etc. In this respect the dancing of the minuet was a new feature to St. John theatre goers, and one for which the company is deserving of credit.

Miss Gillette's Juliet was a beautiful portrayal, aud her rendition of the part in many particulars was entirely new to the St, John public. She was particularly good in tbe balcony scene aud won frequent applause from the audience. The scene between her and Friar Lawrence was cleverly acted. The death scene was hardly what might have been expected from her previous acting, but as every actress has different ideas as to the manner of carrying out this part of the play, Miss Gillette may be excused for her slight variation. The interpretation was a pleasing one, and was much appre ciated by the audience, so that Miss Gil lette was called before the curtain.

W. N. Griffith is the best Romeo seen here for half a score of years. His acting from beginning to end was splendid. His part of the balcony scene was exceedingly clever, as was also the scone after the kill ing of Tybalt.

In the last act, he was very powerful and was heartily applauded. Alfred Hastings performed Mercutlo in a masterly manner, speaking his lines with evenness and distinctly, so that not a word of the many hits were missed by tbe audience. His conception of the character was about as perfect as one could desire, and In his hands the part lost nothing. Ward Swift was at bis best as Capulet and E. Murray Day as Friar Laurence did excellently.

It would be difficult to conceive a better piece of make up and acting than that of J. Dustan, as the apothecary lean, shrivelled and half-starved, and with an overpowering love for gold. Miss Breyer made an excellent nnrse. The remaining characters were fully up in their parts and acted in a very creditable manner. The stage setting in all the acts was most appropriate.

The wardrobe of the company is replete with handsome dresses and beyond a doubt the finest ever seen here. Taken all in all, the company will merit the success they have received in this initial performance, and which, no doubt, will continue throughout tbe The episootlc has appeared among Chicago horses.

VKET LITTLE HOPE- Executive Mansion, Waulsgtox, Aug. -iv. The effect of the decision ctie cabinet and sunreofM not to remove tlie President from the White Hon-u until lie was stronger, was marked upon the mind of the patient. After it w.n communicated to him, yesterday, lie ujs more than usually silent. No oue Eluded to the subject after the anuouucL-ineiiL, nor did lie, bite the depressing imi-'jci! was perceptible to all, aud upon ult whose duties and affections are centered around the suileror.

Tbe persistence with which the President dwelt upon the subject is but another evi dence of his debility. mat ne was unauie to see way ne couiu not be removed, that the long railway tide to Mentor could not be safely takeu, shows that there has been weakening of the reasoning faculties in sympathy with the wasting body. Hia irritability at being denied was that of the little child refusing to be comforted. It is true that no formal recommendation has been made to Mrs. GarfiVId to reasons given against removal she for the first time was brought face to face with the tTue condition of her husband, and since yesterday she has shown hoiv surely the blow went to her faithful heart.

A change was seen yesterday in the very' air of the White House. No one entered it without yielding to the prevailing sadness. Every step was softened, every voice dropped to the monotone or grief. This morning, there is the same hashed movement in all who enter. It the house of death.

Edaon, went to the bedside of the President about 0.30 A. to give him his nourishment, there was some persuasion neeuea to get Dim to take it. At first he did not recognize her, but finally came to himself and apologized. "Why, I did not know you, excuse, me," he said. He had taken as much nourishment as usual during the nicht.

Dr. Reyburu remained with the President all night and left about C.30 A. m. He was loth to stop to speak, but yielded Ions enough to answer the question, "Is he any better?" to say that he eould not state that there had been any change. "win ne raiiyr was Lne uexiq-iery.

i hope-so," said the wearied doctor. "Will he die, to-day?" brought the more emphatic reply, "I am very sure he will not," The parotid gland, it was seen upon a closer examination, had begun to suppurate through the salivary ducts of the mouth. The discharge there is small, but It will doubtless be greater as the day progresses and it may cause him uneasi- ness. The swelling has greatly softened and it is probable that suppuration through the incision in the cheek will also con- tinue. The physicians will watch the progress of these symptoms with the deep est anxiety.

The pulse at 7 a. was 110. When the poultices were removed from the i swollen gland, a considerable amount of pus was lounu 10 nave wine away; it was tinged with blood. The swelling, how ever, bad not materially diminished and there were sijnif oi uie formation oi other points of suppuration. THE NEW ENGLAND CHAUTAUQUA.

Blood was elected chairman pro tern. Messrs. Putnam, Mason, Murray, Graves, Thompson, Fairbanks, Woodward, Haynes, Garrigan, Gallagher and Barnes were present.
