The Lecture Course.

The lecture course has started off well
though financially not so strong as last
year. The lecture by Miss Dickinson
Thursday evening of last week, was
deeper in thought than the one she gave
last year. She assaulted the corruptions
of the present day, as well as the war fe.
yer against Spain, and comparing the
beauties of sunrise ON Pixies Peak
with moral grandeur, she closed with a
brilliant peroration. Dr.. Chapin's lee
ture on Tuesday evening was well at
tended. His subject was Modern Chiv-
airy" IL was strong and able, denounc-
ing modern corruption, but showing that
the good old times" are really no bet
ter than modern. We can only close
this brief with regret that we have not
space for more extended notice of both
lectures.

WINDSOR CoUNTY.-They are having
music up in Windsor county on the liq-
uor question. The county court is in
session at Woodstock, and many of the
liquor sellers of the county and "a cloud
of witnesses have been summoned
there. Many who were wanted for wit
nesses, skedaddled, while of those who
responded their memories suddenly be-
came deficient, showing painful men,
tai loss. In the south end of the county
a man bought new suit of clothes and
started for the cars when the officers
were after him. Another started with a
new suit and his wife sent his clean linen
after him, while another left before the
officer came. All have returned and
are now in good health and even those
whose memories were so fearfully affect.
ed are now said to be greatly improving.
In Woodstock the liquor fines are said
to amount to over $500. Other towns
not yet reported.
