THE MURPHY MOVEMENT IN SPRINGFIELD
The Springfield Republican says curious
case of domestic infelicity was revealed in that
city the other day, the alleged result of the
Murphy meetings. A sad visaged man called
at house where he had heard "a healthy in
fant'' had been left till home could be found
for it and asked to see the baby. Taking the
child on his knee he remarked, after carefully
examining it: "You are not my baby, hoped
you was" Then he explained to the wonder
ing family as follows: "My wife and L were
happy with each other and the baby till the
meetings began. Then she insisted on going
to them all and stayed at home with the baby.
After awhile she began to scold me for not 60
ing myself. 1 told her couldn't as long she
went, and when was free to 60 out I wanted
to choose my own places of resort. Then the
old mother-in-law came in between us, and l
finally told my wife that couldn't stand it any
longer and that we must separate So she
went off with the baby, and 1 don't care TO see
her again, but do want my child, and didn't
know but she had left it here"

The Event of the Season.

On Monday morning the Maine Roultry AS
scciation will take possession of City Hall and
begin to arrange it for their great moral show.
On Tuesday the birds will be received and put
into place. Wednesday the judges will COM
mence their labors, and it has been decided to
award the premiums before the exhibition
opens on Thursday. This is an excellent idea,
as the birds will make a much better appear
ance on their arrival than after hey have been
on exhibition few days. The following are
judges as far as they have been lected:
Light Brahmas-James Msgfap, New Jer-
sey.
Dark Brahmas-P. w. Hudson, North Mad
ison, Conp.
Cochin, white, black and buff-Mark Pltmap,
Philadelphia.
Partridge Cochns-N. B. Dalton, Deering.
Hamburgs-Rev q. w. Boltc7, Armonk, N.
Y.
Polish-E. S. Ongley, MassacEntts.
Games. j. Bestor, Hartford, Conn.
Spanish aud American classes-W. III. Lock-
wood, Hartford.
Mluor Pets-Abel S. Stevens, Wesley, Mass.
Turkeys and Aquatic classes-W. S. Lincoln,
Worcester, Mass.
PgeoDs-J. c. Long, Philadelphia.
Bantums-William L. Howard, Portland.
There is to be a special committee selected
for the Sloddard prize of 500 in gold, offered
for the best pair of Light Brahma chickens.
There will be a lively competition for this pre-
MUM.
The American Poultry Yard me Of the lead
lug poultry papers in New England, speaks OF
the exhibition in the following glowing terms
Every fancier should read .refully the pre-.
MUM list of the great Portland exhibition.
Notics that the awards are clean cash. Cups
are very nice, and some prefer them to money,
but the majority say that the honor of the vic.
tory counts just as much when the cash is the
premium as when medal or cup is given, and
| in the former case there is something that will
| pass current with express companies and hotel
| keepers. Not only does the Maine society Offer
| cash, but the amount is exceedingly liberal and
| we notice this distinguishing feature, that the
| society and the citizens of Portland contribute
almost the entire amount We think SO much
| local spirit and liberality was never shown be-
| fore in connection with poultry exhibition.

A concert given OF Wednesday evening in
the Congregationalist church by the Westbrook
Concert Band, assisted by the village vocalists,

Each solo received an encore and all the other
selections were heartily applauded. The piano
solo by Miss Hattie Brown was finely executed
and displayed to advantage her fine quaifca-
tons as pianist The instrumental pieces by
the band were rendered in their customary ex-
cellent manner
