TEMPERANCE JUBILEE. fitting
jubilation over the temperance move
ment in Lancaster was the meeting
at the new Congregational church
on Tuesday evening last, whereat
Hon. James Ross, State lecturer and
Mr.. L. d. Kanous, Grand Worthy
Chief Templar, of the order of Good
Templars enlivened the audience till
late hour. Mr.. Ross delivered
a part of his "Demon Lecture" being
q history of his warnings and final
triumph. He is natural orator, and
has at all times whether on or off the
stage an inexhaustable fund of hu-
NOR from which he draws at WILL
1t was therefore the good fortune of
our people that Mr.. Ross and his CO.
laborer in the cause of temperance,
Mr. Kanous, were prevailed upon to
remain in Lancaster on the occasion
of q jubilee following the success of
the women on election day. Mr..
Ross is an active and eloquent cham
pion of a great cause, and his lecture
was one of the most interesting we
have ever had the pleasure of listen
ing to- Mr.. Kanous followed him
with a brief speech urging the wo-
men and all friends of temperance to
continue their work
