| TEMPERANCE MEETING AS select and
pleasant to look at audience as ever assem-
bled anywhere, attended the meeting of the
Carson Reform Club at Moore Il Parker $
hall last night. These meetings, in place of
dwindllng down to nothing, as was predicted
by some, are gaining strength every week, and
it is satisfactory to know that the interest in
this most excellent cause is not losing ground.
The exercises last night were not so numer-
GUS and varied as usual, owing to the failure
of one more ladies or gentlemen to make
their appearance upon the stage, but, yet, all
| who attended went away satisfied with hav-
ing spent pleasant and profitable hour or
two. General T. D. Edwards delivered
neat little address, and Mr.. Nat Dow sang
one Of his really good comic songs, which
brought down the house. The other details
of the entertainment were well in keeping
with the excellence of the former. Mr. John
Q. Moore, the proprietor of the hall, is emit
tied to some credit for having placed the
room in such good condition as it now is, and
also for the necessary and acceptable improve
ments he has made there

assembled guests, with beautiful golden tenn
perance badge, as a token of appreciation for
the work she has performed III that little vii
lage, in the cold water cause. The presen-
tation was made in a neat little speech, and
replied to in a cordial and happy manner.
The ladies and gentlemen, with Mrs. Webster,
hen adjourned to the hall where they had
pleasant dance, which lasted until 2 o'clock
yesterday morning, and a splendid lunch
brought along by the surprisers. 1t is said
hat this affair was the most delightful ever
