The schooner Minnie A. Calne arriv
ed yesterday from HHo, H. L, from
which port she sailed May 20. She
brought a clean bill of health and wa
nassed by Dr. Earle. Tho schooner
is commanded by Captain 3. K. Ol
sen. whose wife accompanies him
on the voyage. The vessel brings three
Japanese passengers.
D. C. Lewis, a Portland architect,
was down yesterday to look over the
city hall building preparatory to out
lining plans for the repairs which! are
to be made to the structure. Mr, Co
hen, the purchaser of the building, is
anxious to open his playhouse there
before regatta week, and the remodel
ing of the" building will be accom

The report of ih4 determination of
some of the councilmeit to pass an or
dlnance requiring saloons to clone at
midnight was the sole topic of con
versation among Uie retail liquor deal
r vesterdav. The new wae a de
elded surprise to them, as there had
been no previous intimation that any
of the members of the council contem
plated any such action. No further
statement concerning the matter was
secured, but it is not improbable that
the ordinance will be presented, if at
all, at the next regular meeting of the
city body.
At a meeting of the Retail Liquor
Dealers' Association held yesterday it
was decided to boycott the Portland
Journal. When members of the asso
elation were questioned about the matf
ter last night they declined to make
any statement, but it was learned the
association bad pronounced the Jour
nal antagonistic to their interests and
had decided to withdraw their sup
oort from the paper. The Journal's
efforts on behalf of the local option
law has given offense to the saloon
men. The local agent of the paper
states that the action of the associa
tion will merely result in his injury,
as the loss of a few subscriptions will
make absolutely no difference to the
owners of the Journal.
