Emory Mason was celebrated Monday, May
9th, afternoon and evening. The two oldest
daughters, Mrs. Anterior and Mrs. Whitney,
of Brattleboro, were present, and letters were
read from the two youngest daughters, who
could not be present. Neighbors and friends
to the number of about 100 were present and
left with the bride and groom of fifty years
presents in gold and greenbacks to the amount
OF about $40. The gifts included two beau
tiful chairs. The presentation was made by
the Rev. A. Foster in his usual happy man
ner and was responded to by S. W. Hough-
ton, ESD, for the recipients, after which all
were provided with a bountiful repast. All
seemed to enjoy the occasion, and the after
noon and evening We're spent in a social man
ner to the qualification of all present. The
company departed wishing Mr. and Mrs Ma
son many pleasant years to come.

North walpolc, the village acress the
river, is growing rapidly and the business Is
increasing in proportion. }. NJ. Rolston,
who has been in trade at West Lebanon for
long time. has hired building and is going to
nut in a stock of general merchandise, max
inc the second store there. He was recently
burned out ut West Lebanon. At late
school meeting it was decided to build new
school house having four rooms, only two of
which are to be finished up now. The old
school house has but one room and small
one at that. The number of scholars has in
creased during the past three years from 10
to about 100, making increased accommoda-
tons imperative. A. F. Minis is chairman Of
the building committee.

by his brother.
C. L. Howe of Brattleboro was in town
last week and has hired the monster photo
graphic apparatus of Taft that was used in
taking the birds eye view of Bellows Falls
from Mount Kilburn. He intends trying a
similar venture in Brattleboro. Taft was
very successful in all ways. His pictures
were fine ones, and his sales have exceeded
his expectations. A large number have been
shipped by express to all parts Of the United
States to former residents, to whom it is of
course an interesting study As the whole
village is shown, one can readily pick out all
the new buildings and note the improvements.

When the army appropriation bill which
President Hayes vetoed, was under considere-
ton in the House, Mr.. Tucker, of Virginia, of
fered an amendment to repeal section Pts of
the Revised Statutes, which reads as follows
mo person who has served in any capacity
in the military, naval, or civil service of the
o-called Conft derate States, or of either of
the States in instruction during the late re-
bellion, shall be appointed to any position
in the army of the United States"
Mr.. Tucker received so little encouragement
in this effort to open the army to the class o +
persons excluded by the section above quoted,
