Prcscott's Hall, on Friday evening, pre sented a very pleasing scene when tho Junior Aid Society connooted with Ep worth Church gave their patriotic social. The young ladies of the sooioty were nil dressed In white, with red and blue trim mings and caps to correspond. Tho hall was decorated for the occasion, and great taste was displayed In the arrangements. The choruses were vory fine and the recitations of Misses IBUlman and Cisco were well rendered, as wore also the dia logues. The tableau "United States and Cuba" had a beautiful effect, as did also the one entitled "Loyalty to the flag." Mr. Frank Wilkin, accompanied by Miss Nellie Langton on the organ, gave an excellent violin solo. At the close of the entertainment cake and cream were served. Miss Irene Kim ble Is president of the society; Miss Mary Squires Is Secretary and Miss Emma Bill man Treasurer. Great credit is due Miss Kimble for getting up the entertainment. The society realized a nice sum and thank their many friends for their presence at the hall on Friday evening. The second of the series of hops given under the auspices of the Arbltrlum Club took place at Farnum's Hall, Port Jor vis, and upwards of two hundred guests were In attendance Dancing was the di version of the evening and that fascinat ing pastime was Indulged In, with all the added zest and pleasure that comes from superior muslo, an orchestra consisting of Mr. Davis, clarinet, Thos. Blerne, violin, and Miss Mary Squlers, pianist, executed the most popular modern dance muslo In a manner which would have put life Into an Egyptian mummy, and whloh was an inspiration to the happy young people who Were present. The talented young musi cian, Miss Mary Squlers, was the hostess of the .occasion. A delicious supper was served In the diulng room by Caterer Pet ers, after which the young people resumed dancing with renewed energy and contin ued the pastime to an early hour in the morning, when all departed with pleas ant recollections of the happy oocasion. The young people who are so fortunate as to be on the Invitation list of the Arblt rlum Club will learn with pleasure that the organization will te nialntaluod aud the danoes resumed In the Fall.

The heavy hail storm which passed over this section ou Wednesday afternoon of lust week did great damage to fruit and grain. Some pleoes of grain almost totally destroyed. Owing to the tnoessant rains there has been but little corn planted. The hay crop promises to be a largo one this year. A large number of cat fish have been taken from Minks famous puud this spring. An unusual acreage of potatoes are be ing planted In this section. The buildings on the entate of the late Quo. Nyce are uudurguiug repairs. Messrs. Jos. uud Wulluce liousluy are doing the work .

Having noted the liability nf the Pnstor on account of having performed a mar riage oereniony for a non resident, where no license was produced, has led to further Investigations, and It Is found that al though the former Pastor was notified by the Presiding Elder of the lnw bearing on marriage, he committed the same misde meanor In two cases. It would seem that a ministers lust for thelucre should not lie so strong as to induce him to become a law breaker to obtain a paltry fee. If It Is not Ignnrnnoe of the law, and It evidently Is not, then they should piy the penalties ns a Justice, or other office would be expected to do. Childrens Day at Bovans will come on Time Kith.

Hursh on memorial day. Any other Indication of its observance wns conspicuous by Its absence. The lawsuit at Halnesville last woek I understand to have been a flash In tho pnn and was settled by Wm .ShaferDef'tpay Ing Abram Van Auken the plaintiff .'7.00 with costs. Halnesville seems to be a fav orite plnco for people to settle their griev ances by law or otherwise, and the Squire seems to be satisfied either way Now that the summer vacations are at hand we would suggest to the Board of Education that they comply wifh the law regarding water closets, and put pnten' seats in the school moms that do not nl ready have them.

Those Montague peoplo should have do cided whether to repair the old church, or build a new one, and also whether to put it on the hill, or under it before they be gan to gather In the cash. Why not compromise with the Town Committee and get them to put some more money in the pot and build a fine Town Hall. It would answer all tho purposes of a church aud be something for all the people to be proud of. J.N.

Eiiitoh Phkxr: I noticed an article In your paper of May 20 from C., of Centre District, snylng that district lnid the only teacher enthusiastic -mongh to start a movement to rnise a Hag pole. If C. had visited Long Meadow he would have found a patriotic teacher mid the house very tastefully decorated with the stars and stripes. The children were taught by the teacher, Miss Lizzie Rochotte, during the noon hours to. speak and sing patriotic pieces and tho manner in which they delivered them, tho closing day before a largo audience showed great talont on the piirt of the children, and a very careful training by the teacher. Much eredlt Is due her for the labor mid patience bestowed In the drilling, and also for the decorations of the room In which she was heartily joined by the scholars. OllSEHVKR. School Report.
