KNIGHTS TEMPLAR.
Return of the Hugh De Payens.

Yesterday morning, at 8 o'clock. the City
Band of Boston took position in front of the
Falmouth Hotel and delighted large crowd
of citizens by their admirable rendering OF
three excellent selections. They produced
fine tone, shaded their music we'll, and dis
played a good volume OF sound. After the
concert the two communicates fell in, and,
preceded by Chandler's and the City panos'
marched to Custom House wharf, where their
ladies and invited guests had preceded them.
Here the Gazelle was taken for Little Che
beague, and the sail to that charming resort
was never lovelier than yesterday. The stran-
gers were enthusiastic over the beauties OF
Casco Bay, whose charms were more proml-
nent than for a long time past, the late rain
having refreshed the verdure of the many ISL
ands and turned it to an emerald hue. Inc
splendid music of the bands was heartily en-
joyed and many new acquaintance formed
whose friendship will prove lasting.
At 1920 the island was reached. The Sir
knights and their ladies were met at the
wharf by Sir Knight John s. Morris, and es'
corted to the hotel where ranks were broken

evoking round on round of applause. The
bake was opened at 1880 p. NJ, and was I'M
mense. Everything was cooked to turn, and
the Merose knights and their ladies declared
that it was perfectly delicious
After the bake there was more story telling,
and at D. M the boat was retaken for the
city Railroad wharf being reached at 2 40 p. M
The Communicates reformed and marched TO
the Boston & Maine station, where special
train was provided. Here Chambers band
played "Home, Sweet Home superbly. the

chiefs the guests left for the Wentworth House

The Angove Highway Robbery

The Angove highway robbery is still mys-
terry and developments in regard to it are not
forthcoming Officers who visited Glenburn,
Saturday afternoon ascertained the fact that
the Edwards-Todd party were in the village
all through the forenoon Of the robbery. The
village blacksmith stated that Edwards was at
his shop all the forenoon, and that Todd was
in the immediate vicinity of the shop at the
time of the robbery, both tryin; to effect a
horse trade with Glenburn parties. The shop
is distant from the scene Of the robbery four
miles by one road and seven miles to another,
and thus it was impossible that Edwards aud
Todd should have been on the new road at the
time of the assault upon Angove.
Deputy Sheriff Dow of Newport arrived IN

Presentation.

The Lowell Courier says: "Mr. w. A.
Ingham, of the telephone company, last week
showed his appreciation OF Rev. Geo. w.
Bicknell's labors in quiet but practical and
eminently satisfactory way. Mr. Bicknell, 1T
will be remembered, was recently given tine
team, and found it necessary to build barn to
bouse it. Ministers are not the richest people
in the world, in a pecuniary point of view, and
rightly thinking that little help would not
be unacceptable, Mr.. Ingham sent the pastor
check for $3.50, which provided for the con-
struction of the stable free of debt. Pastor
Bicknelrs lines have fallen in pleasant places.
and with the esteem and appreciation of a
liberal congregation, there is no reason why
he shouldn't be happy.
