day evening the annual closing exorcises
of the Mining and Mechanical Institute
took place beforo a large audience.

The features of the ovoning were the
address of Hon. John Field, the vale
dictory of Patrick Dover and the award
ing of the prizes by Prof. E. F. Hanion.
Mr. Field's Founder's Day address
was as good a half-hour's talk as the
people of town have had the pleasure of
hearing for some time. His references
to the late lOckley U. Coxe were well re
ceived.
Mr. Dever, in his valedictory, did ex
ceptionally well, and merited the gen
erous applause accorded him.
The several pupils who took part in
the program were up to the usual stand
ard which the public has come to expect
from M. & M. pupils, this being especial
ly true of the very young boys who par
ticipated. Among these Edward Mc-
Ilugh deserves particular mention.
Prof. Hanion, just before the close,
awarded the following cash prizes on
behalf of ths directors:
Condy Gallagher, S2O; Arthur Lewis,

$10; Frank Gallagher, S2O: Master Ed

This offori was made in the shape of a
letter to each senator asking that tho
committee bo discharged from further
consideration of the bills. In order to
make their position stronger, the legis
