Portland Postmaster Appointment Sparks Perceived Snub
The report alleging Clark Hi Barker’s appointment as Portland postmaster snubs Congressman Reed is incorrect.

In Le Temps a critic argues Hamlet bears a heavy task to murder his mother, while Legouve’s Beatrix translates scenes from Shakespeare as stage denouements for Romeo and Juliet.
