The Abilene Amateur Dramatic
Troupe filed their engagement in the
Opera House last Tuesday evening
The impression had gone out that the
entertainment had been postponed for
week, and the attendance was not as
large as 1t might have otherwise been.
As 1t was the room was something
more than half filed, and we hearthat
the troupe realized sufficient to pay ex-
penses. The orchestra music was fur
nished by our home band. There were
some sixteen persons in the troupe.
The play. 1.-THE Turn of the Tide" is
altogether too heavy for an amateur
company. but the young people did
FULLY as well a. could be expected.
The farce, 1.-THE Coal Heaver's Re-
venge," was laughable. and created
considerable nerriment.

The Republican County Central
Committee met last Monday after

calling another County Convention
for the purpose of electing delegates
to the State Congressional Conven-
ton of the 2sth of June. There was
present a larger representation of the
committee than has assembled before
for many years-over twenty men,
bers being present. Speeches were
made by Messrs. James Smith, c. s.
Martin, Thos. Anderson, w. A. Max
well and A. c. Wait. All were chock-
full of Hanbackism. The proceedings
were harmonious. There was only q
little strife over the time for holding
the primary elections. The times
proposed were the 18th and 18th days
of June. The vote was a tie upon
those dates. The chairman having
the casting vote, decided in favor of
the 18th. The call for the convention
is published in another column.

Romdoin Alumni in Washington,


The Alumni of Bowdoln College living in
Washington have effected an organization,
with Commodore Horatio Bridge, U. S. N, of
Bowdoin's famous class of 1925, as president.
The association will have its first banquet on
February 10th, at which President J. L. Cham
berlain has promised to be president. Gen. O.
o. Howard and several other distinguished
graduates are expected. Among those who
have been invited are the poet Longfellow of
Cambridge and Dr. Cheever of New York.
The venerable Prof Packard, now 81 years
old, who entered the college before the first
class graduated, and who is still working
professor, writes that he would be present but
for the fact that his history of the college is
now passing through the press, and he is
obliged to remain at home to correct the
proofs There are more than forty graduates
of the college resident in Washington.

Valentines.

The times have not made SO great an adj
vance but what our younger readers can re-
member the valentines with which the book
stores were always decorated, or dishgured, in
February. Decorated, when they displayed
those-to the op-gazer-marvellous comolna-
lions of lace paper and poor water-coloring, In
which Adonis was seen kneeling at the feet of
Venus. and, upon the lifting of this touching
scene. mirror was disclosed rejecting the
fair features of the senders Valentine. Dis
figured, when huge blotches of color, thrown
on paper without any regard to taste, made
prominent the horrible drawing of some repul-
siye creature, addressed beneath in language
as coarse as the picture was disgusting
ssNous auons change tout cela," and to-day
Loring, Short & Harmon's counters are cover
ed with, the finest specimens OF Prangs ART
Some of them are as much more dainty and
elegant than those old lace and water-color
affairs used to be, as Cinderella slipper sur
passes wooden shoe. We have one before us
now, entitled, ga Confession. The faces OF
the young miss and master are a transcript OF
those of their elders, provided that they had
been surprised, is a most interesting situation.
The costumes are those of the Consulate, and
look most comical on the little people. The
ooloring is exquisite, and the back of the panel
model of esthetic work. A very cunning one
is that of sweet little tot in white dress, with
blue sash and shoulder ribbons, bending over
a marble-bordered fish pond to watch the gold
fish sporting among the lily pads. These are
only specimens selected from as many styles as
have been seen in Christmas cards.

Art Exhibition.

Mr.. EDIToR:-The art exhibition at Willis
ton church is unusually meritorious. It is
held, not in "Wiliston chapel' as the papers
have frequently reported but in the cozy
ladies' parlor of the church room over the
vestry which is in every way adapted for the
exhibition. The light in this room is excellent
and SO skillfully have the ladies arranged the
drapery that thewhole effect is most pleasing.
To this collection Harry Brown contributes
two beautiful marines, Mr.. D. P. Hewes an
exquisite flower piece, and Mr.. Kimball fine

the suit is to have the rebate traffic agreements
recently entered into by that company with
the Grand Junction Railway Company and
the Toronto and Nipissing Railway Company

effect guaranteeing the bond debt interest of
those companies. which the Grand Trunk had
no authority to do. Similar suits were insti-
tuted in Toronto, and injunctions are asked
for to restrain the Grand Trunk from carrying
out the agreements or from applying any of
their earnings under them, and from paying
dividends on the several classes of its prefer
ence stocks until the rights and liabilities I'M

From Hon. Geo. s. Hillard. Boston

I have used the lifting cure under the direc-
ton of DIR. Paul, Boston agent for the Health
Lift Co., for about six months, and can recon-
mend it as good and healthy form of exer-
else. 1t quickens the circulation, increases the
muscular force and gives to the whole system
a sense of renewed vigor. 1t is particularly to
be commended to those whose habits are Sc
dentary. But in order to secure its good re-
suits it must be pursued regularly and as mat
ter of duty, and not occasionally and as mat
ter of impulse. In general man needs such
exercise most when he feels inclined to it
Such disinclination is the result of low tone
of the system, which good lift will help to
improve.
