French play “La Poudre aux Yeux.”

play was translated for this presenta- 
tion by Alice L. Blaisdell, Mary H.

The leading parts were taken by

carried off their parts well. The play

Boat Landing at Magnolia 
The committee on harbors and pub- 
lic lands granted a hearing Tuesday 
on the petition of George A. Upton to 
incorporate the Magnolia Wharf Cor- 
poration, Alonzo F. Covel, James S. 
Lee, Charles F. Panhallow and Joseph 
Sargent, Jr., being named as the in- 
corporators. 
The purpose of incorporation is to 
permit the erection of a public landing 
at Magnolia, to be not less than eight 
feet or more than 15 feet wide, and to 
extend from above high water mark to 
a point not exceeding 60 feet below 
the outside of mean low water, and 
maintain a float landing stage at the 
end. ‘The wharf is to be between the 
land of W. R. Nelson and H. F. 
MacDonald. 
Senator James F. Shaw advocated 
the proposed legislation, saying that 
at the present time there was no safe 
landing places for yachts at Magnolia ; 
that the sport was on the increase and 
some provision should be made _ for 
their safety. The wharf was not to 
be for commercial purposes, or even 
for excursion or picnic parties, as this

would be objectionable because. of past 
damage to property. He denied that 
the summer residents desired to use 
the proposed wharf exclusively, but 
simply desired it for the use and con- 
venience of all sail and power craft 
used for pleasure. Any visiting 
yachtsmen will be welcomed to land 
at any time. 
James S. Lee and Joseph Sargent, 
Jr., spoke in favor of the project, the 
latter suggesting that the use of the 
wharf be confined as nearly as possi- 
ble to use of boats of 30-foot water line 
and under, which would prevent the 
landing of tugs or excursion boats. 
O. W. Richardson, a summer resi- 
dent of Magnolia since 1880, opposed 
the plan unless amended to allow only 
boats under 30 feet to land or leave 
the float. He recited instances where 
damages to property was caused by 
the landing of boats and excursion 
steamers.

of boats was agreed to, and the com-
