nesday evening given Iy the St. Croix
Valley Musical Association, was largely
attended and gave universal satisfaction.
There were not as many singers present
rs at the concert at this place, but the
programme contained . greater variety
Of pieces, many Of which were enthusiast
tically sppIauded. Mrs. TESsKY and
Mrs. HALL Of Hastings, Miss. NrcHoLs.
of River Falls, and Messrs. BARNUM,
WARNER, EYRE won much praise, while
the songs by Mr.. MEssER added much
to the interest of evening. Altogether the
concert Ike the previous one was com
plete success, and the Association has re-
ceived deserved praise anu cash.
An exciting trial has been in pro-
gress in Hudson during the week past, in
consequence of n man doing what JOSEPH
refused to do. The parties implicate /
are Mr.. H. G. Lee and Mrs. Frederick
Zotman. Lee was arrested on a charge
ofrape, but AYERS that the whole design
Ofthe affair was to extract money from
him, The counsel for prosecution are
Dist. Atty. FUTILE and S. III. CLoUeH;
for defence J.B. Gray and H. A. VIII
SON. The affair has created good deal
of interost-a huge amount of scandal
and largo bill of expense.
The weather during the week past
has been clear and beautiful, and just
cold enough to Civ sparkle and vigor to
the atmosphere. With sleighing it
would be perfect.
