HOW THAT DEBATING SOCIETY CAME TO

HOW THAT DEBATING SOCIETY CAME TO
KICK THE BUCKET.
According to announcement, last Sun
day evening we had another temperance
meeting. The M. E. Church was thronged
with an audience of old and young, all
seemingly interested in the temperance
cause, giving attention to the addresses
dresses of Messrs. Burton ard Belding,
which were followed by remarks from
Kellogg, Wilmot and Chace. This is an
evidence that the people of this place are
being aroused by the evil effects of the
liquor traffic. May the good work 90 on

by member of the Dowburgh Seminary of
the dissolution of our debating class, with
a few abusive hints regarding the cause
of Its demise, we feel inclined to offer the
particulars more minutely, and we will.
That the members of the society "wades
into the profound depths of argument we
do not deny. And it was in anticipation
that this promising talent would shake

ciety at East Chardon. When all was
made ready and the invitations sent out

(to our surprise), were unwilling to join
us. We, however, continued in hopes,
but all was vain. Seeing that they could

what has been our loss will be their happy

seems that Messrs. Brink and Carroll &,
have been committee on sidewalks and
streets. Even II our streets and roads
were not in a disgraceful condition. Mr..
CarrolPs example of his capability is suf-
ficleut to annul the commendatory re-
marks which our esteemed contemporary
makes. All this time that MIR. Carroll has
been on this committee to compel the en-
forcement of sidewalk ordinances he has
been openly a violator OF these same ord
inances. Further comment on the hon.
esty of Mr.. Carroll as a public official is
unnecessary. AS our esteemed contem-

There are two members OF the school
board to be elected, FL. P. Sandford and
FL. Fl. Coe retiring. Our schools have in
the main been efficiently managed, but it
is necessary to have board members who
are interested enough in the schools to
give them their personal attention as to
methods and practical needs.
1t has been stated to US that of the pres
ent Board, two only visit the schools. :.
Whether two is the limit or not we can
not positively state, but we do know that
the outgoing members do not give the
schools as much attention as their
Importance requires, and therefore we are
opposed to their reelection. Rev. Bap-
tiste is a gentleman of education aud
ability, and Mr.. j. A. Babcock has imme-
diate interest in the we'll being of the
schools. Both gentlemen are well-known
men of high character and earnestness in
their profession, and OF experience In
teaching-Mr. Babcock being superin-
tendent of the Baptist Sabbath School.
We feel in presenting these names that
we are Offering two men whose election
will be a benefit to the schools. and to
whom their share in promoting excellence
and reforming abuses will be a matter OF
pride.

THE MENDELSSORN CLUE.
A Fine Concert and a Large Audi
ence.
The concert of the Mendelssohn Quin-
tette Club, given under the auspices OF
the Temperance rooms, was a great suc-
cess, and was the more highly appreci-
ated by the musical community because
of the comparative scarceness of fine con-
certs in this city. The personel of the
Club was entirely new, with the excep-
ton of MIR. Ryan, its founder. In many
respects the Club is better than ever be-
fore especially in the strings, Mr.. Heinen.
dahl being far ahead of any violinist that
ever Travelled with them, not excepting
Listermann. In exchanging Mr.. HeindI
for Mr. schude the Club has suffered a
great loss, the first named gentleman be-
ing the greatest artist. Mr.. Schude is
however, painstaking and conscientious,
and being very young has much expert
ence to gain. Indeed it is a remarkable
fact that three members of the Club are
under twenty-five years of age. The
numbers of the programme which pleased
most were the clariOnette and vlolincellO
solos and the string quartette. Mr. Grese,
violincello, is thorough artist and pos
sesses splendid instrument, which how
ever had suffered serious injury during
the day by being overheated so much that
it came apart, and compelling speedy
work in repairing it. Miss Darlington is
by far the best soprano that has ever came
here with this Club or any other, and
every one was pleased by her beautiful
voice and easy way OF managing it. The
concert was enjoyed by large audience,
and we have to thank the Temperance
Committee for atfording us an evening of
rare enjoyment. In this connection we
offer a suggestion that the Temperance
rooms can do much good and make them
selves substantial returns by encourage
ing this class of entertainments. They
can, from their position, secure much
larger audiences than any private ar
rangement, besides giving pleasure to
large number OF people.
