Barnet.
The rendering of the Flower Queen
Cantata ut the town hall last Friday
evening, was well received by a good
house, and about 800 were realized
towards paying the church organ debt.
The same entertainment was given Sat
urday evening for the benefit of the
Reform Club. .,..
Some startling and sadly unpleasant
revelations have lately been made in
regard to the financial condition of Hon.
j. ID. Abbott. Mr.. Abbott has evident
ly been met for some time past 10y large
numbers of creditors, especially since ii
began to be known that his real estate
was mortgaged for full value to the
Merchants National Bank of st. Johns
bury. But last week there was a gen.
eral run with but little satisfaction Oh
tanned and on Friday morning Mr..
Abbott's physical and mental health
completely broke down. He had en-
joyed the confidence of people in a
peculiar degree, and no other man in
town could have been so deeply in
debt. Those who profess to know, es-
innate his liabilities at from 10000 to
$40, 1000, with assets of $4,000 or under.
The number of sufferers is almost in
credible, and includes both rich and
poor. The use of trust funds. and the
appearance of some transactions, give a
dark look, and people talk very hard,
but it is to he hoped that matters are
exaggerated, and that Mr.. Abbott will
he able to explain some of these things
if he RECEIVERS. His health was reported
better the first of this week.
Mrs. Abby Storer Doutney of Boston,
will lecture before the Barnet Club,
Saturday evening of this week.

PIcsIc OF THE ST. ALpHoasus SocIE.
TY.-The ST. AlphonsuB Society yester-
day celebrated It's seventh anniversary
with parade through the principal
streets and picnic 10 Zsne's Orchard, on
the Island. The day opened up bright
and beautiful the. streets we're In fine
condition, and as there was quite large
turnout, the procession attracted consid.
cradle attention. The Wheeling City
Band headed the procession, and made
some excellent music along the route.
Upon arriving at the picnic grounds,
preparations were at once made for q
good time, and the members OF the So
ciety, their wives and little ones separa-
ted into groups and wandered of to enjoy
themselves as best they could. The
orchestra started up, and soon dozens Of
merry couples were gliding gracefully
over the platform in the giddy mAzes Of
the dreamy waltz. There were numerous
other methods Of enjoyment provided,
and none present were at loss for
amusement
A pleasant.incident Of the day was the
presentation Of gold headed cane BY the
Society to their Chaplain, Rev. Father
Collins. The presentation speech was
made by Mr.. Charles r. Behler, Presi-
dent Of The Society, and was responded 10
briefly by Father Collins.
About 8 o'clock = shower came up,
and most Of the picnicers we're severely
drenched, but this circumstance did not
seem TO abate their enthusiasm one whit.
True, many Of the old people and child.
rem sought dryer quarters, but the large
majority ofthe crowd kept up the festiVi.
ties until evening.
