the Lodge spread fine collation. after
the regular business OF the Lodge was
through with. Champagne in immense
quantities ornamented the double row of
tables which ran down each side of the
Hall and the tasteful manner in which

The Western Union Telegraph CON-
pany bias provided its electricians in
many of the large cities with uniform
OF which the following is description:
They consist of blue beaver, half
frock coat, red braid and white metal
buttons; pants blue, with red roll stripe;
cap blue, red stripe, with circular badge;
leather belt with white metal buckle,
with " Western Union Telegraph" and
the number stamped thereon. On the
belt is a leather message box with metal
box with number; legRings of black rub
Der; overcoat of black rubber; rubber
of havelock and cape for head"
Whether they will make this uniform
| general is yet to be seen. This fantastic
rig would have stunning effect on Joe
Sears, the electrician who presides over
the destinies of the lightning shop of
Phoebe.
STORMY. The Hamilton stormy
weather seems to have extended to Phoebe.
Commencing on Monday night about u
O'Clock the wind started to blow a
gale. The dir getting very cold, blankets
were in big demand to cover sleepers
during the night. Yesterday morning
early clouds filed the skies and the APP
pearance was that OF a storm, but during
the day it blew over and the sun shone
bright tor portion of the time. A per.
feet hurricane occurred from about one
o'clock and the way tin cans and refuse
matter came rolling down Main street
was u canton to pedestrians. All who
were not positively compelled by business
matters to be on the street avoided thai
thoroughfare. About four o'clock the
wind subsidized and at half past six snow
commenced falling.

paying their debts as they usually hav,
been doing on the settlement days of tn
company Whether the disagreablt
weather was the cause or not we canno
say. We know that the complaint wa
general among business men.
Two of our little boys illustrated tn
fact that boys will be boys and will b
beligerent, and will pull each other
hair. 4 sample OF this was observes

much.
