Qaiie large crowd assembled at
Waterville Monday for the eth July
celebration. But as TO the celebration
there was nome. We desire to say 10
oar readers that the programme fur
nished 10 this paper last week was made
ont by Mr.. Pierce and we printed il
expecting 1t least some of it 10 be ear
ried out. There was no boat racing,
swimming matches or foot racing. Mr..
Pierce must not expect those that enter
for such aces TO buy their owr premi-
ums they can buy them il they desire
without entering a contest. Then
again there was not one third enough
seats for the crowd. From beginning
to the eud the whole object seemed 10
be to "make money" Waterville Is a
beautiful place aud would become quite
Il resort for pleasure seekers If. only
conducted on the right principle. The
people of this whole surrounding
try are in sympathy with Mr.. Pierce
AID desire to see Him succeed and make
money of Of his labor, but If in the flu
ture he ever expects to have another
gathering there, lie must make a pro-
sramme that will be carried out, or
furnish some Inducements more than
the privilege of entering the grounds.
Tine HERALD has always been a friend
to Waterville and we hope the ,proprIe-
tor will not think strange of this arti-
Gle. The editor of this paper, person.
ally, has no cause for complaint, bu:
we write this with the hope that the
may be taken for the good of the
place and the welfare of Mr.. Pierce IN
the future.
Since the above was in type Mr..
has called to see us, and says
that the failure to carry out the pro-
gramme and all other necessary con-
veniences vas due to sickness of him

feeteG arrangements for the appearance
of the above named popular troupe at
Craigmiles' Hall, on Saturday next.
They will play Hazel KiIke," a piece
that stands. without a parallel on the
American Stage. Having had II run of
4SG nights at the Madison Square Thea
tire, New York. Tho Company playing
above piece are fully able to do the
piece full and perfect justice.
The Knoxville "Chronicle" says of
them: The Richmond & McElreth
Dramatic company were greeted by u
very fair house last night, the hot
weather and other things considered,
and it being their first appearance be-
hind iii fOot-lights. Their presenta-
ton was that immensely pleasing and
popular comedy-drama, "Hazel Kirke."
1t has a thrillingly interesting plot,
and affords opportunity for striking
situations, and the company, especially
the leadlng characters, present their
parts creditably. The characters de-
serving of special mention are Miss
Alice lrving's Hazel Kirke," Harry
Richmond's "DunstOn Kirke," ia
Petite Rina's ODDLY Dutton," and S.
b. McElrcth's "Pittacus Greene" A

What do New Hampshire people
think of the following statement made
by Gen. Neal Dow, while on lectur-
ing tour in the west At Chicago he
made the unwarrantable statement
that 'sabsolnte prohibition now exists
in New Hampshire and Vermont as
we'll as in Maine" The fact is that in
any of tho large towns and in many of
the smaller enes in Me-, New Hamp-
shire and Vermont, it is as easy to
obtain liquor as it is in Massachusetts,,
where it is sold openly and regulated
by license law. The United States
District Attorney in Portland will tell
you that there are in that state 694
persons who have taken out licenses as
retailers of intoxicating liquors, and
% who have licenses to sell as whole

TEMPERANCE DEPARTMENT.
EDITED BY THE
WOmen'S Christian Temperance UBisn
REstTE TnE CHILDMEx.


The late Cardinal wiseman said,
"Give me the children Of England,
and in twenty years England shall
be Catholic" ] say, "Give US the
children Of England, and In twenty
years England shall not only be tenn
perate, but"-and the words seem 70
open vista Of progress and prosper
ity such as we can hardly conceive
-" England shall not only be tenn
perate, but shall be a nation Of total
abstainers." Well, now I ask you,
Is It really an injury to induce chill
dren TO take the pledge, or is itan in
jury, with heartless prejudice and
callous' 'obstinacy, to leave them ex-
posed without defence 70 all the ter
ribIe temptations and enormous evils
OF drink ? II seems TO me that five
can succeed In saving them from
that, we may laugh TO sccrn the ri
diculous notion that we do them
any harm by inducing them to give
up that which they do not need,
which they naturally do not like, and
which can be nothing TO them but
source Of peril and ruin.
Almost every book oae takes up
contains some damning evidence OF
the awful consequence Of drink, and
only yesterd ~ / was reading book
by the authoress of "John Halifax,
GeRsleman," In which she describes
her visits to the East London Hospi-
tai for children, and she tells how
the nurse said that numbers Of chill
dren from, the district, full of drink
ard ignorance, are brought there with
cancer, hIp-disease, and'jisease ofthe
bones, with riekeis and all kinds Of
constitutional corruption, 50 weakly
from the constitution which they
have inherited from vicious parents
that although they could only be
saved by surgery they are too weak
to undergo an operation, and her re-
mark upon it is this: ssFor such
children and in such places death ii-
self seems 10 be better thing than
life.n Even more than that, we fiId
poor little, hapless children, whom
God meant to live and be happy, dy-
ing in this Christian England, in this
year, by something which bears ,
grotesque and horrible resemblance
to unconscious suicide. At the very
beginning of this year, amidst the
very sound of the blessed Christian
bells, amidst the rejoiIings with
which the new year was introduced
by Christian people, one little child
of three in Glasgow gets up ia the
night, takes the whisky which its
mother has been drinking, drinks,
and is found lying dead in its bed in
the morning; and that England may
not be behind Scotland, another lit-
tie child of foar at Huddersfield sees
that its mother has bought some
spirits TO welcome friends, gets up
in the same way, drinks the spirits,
and is found dead in the morning.
Now, let US ask whether there can
be anything worse than all this ne
glect ahd accident and cruelty and
disease and death Yes there is
something worse than all this-there is
sia. Disease and accident and cruel
ty and death may MAIN aud torture
the body; murder and suicide may
end the life, but sin. blasts and cor
rupts the soul, aud many and many
a drunkard's child in England is be-
ing trained up deliberately in the
habits of sin.-Caaon Farrar.
