Christmas Mt HaskIns.-Owing to
nonsppearance..of sufficient number to
make the fox chase complete success it
was decided 10 postpone to some future
day and give the foxes a rest. A rabbit,
however, skipped into town and dared
them to the chase, which furnished amuse-
ment for the boys for time. But he was
not taken, neither dead nor alive. The
majority of the young people seemed dis
posed to reserve their energies for the ded-
ication exercises OF DR.. GEDEEY's new
Hall which was to take place in the eve
ming and to which they turned out in large
numbers. The evening proved to be a
pleasant one, the sleighing fair, which en-
abled many to enjoy seighride as we'll as
the ball. The new Hall, just completed by
DIR. GEDNEY, IL 22x50 and IL feet in the
clear between floor and ceiling. Although
scarcely large enough for this occasion il
is we'll adapted to the wants OF the village
for school exhibitions, balls, concerts, and
such purposes as town hall are used
The village of Haskins and surrounding
country were fully represented on this oc.
casion, besides a number from Bowling
Green, Tontogany and Portage. Between
ii and IL o'clock the party adjourned to
the Worth House and partook of fine
supper prepared for them by mine host Mr.
ID. WORTH. The music was furnished by
a portion of the Haskins Orchestra and
everything passed off Rs pleasantly al
could he wished for.

ding on Christmas in a manner that will
long be remembered by the large number

sented, which is supposed to be sufficient
to last them through the next Eve years

fashion. Mr.. P. @. GARRETT, the "Mid-
dlemsn" between the beef eaters Of Tole-

wedding and made his purchases accord

was overlooked.
