BARRE.-rhe Congregational sociable at Walter
Phelps was well attended and all had good
time. Giles Durkee's new store Is nearly ready
for occupancy, but the most persistent interview
ing will not reveal who is going into it,. The
Methodist sociable at their vestry last Friday
night was a success socially and financially. The
stage exercises were singing and speaking by the
children, with the "broom drill" Oysters were
served and good time enjoyed Receipts about
S35 :. The band has its bills out for the leyee
Saturday night, and judging from them the en-
tertainment will be good They have been prac-
ticing for some time on excellent music and will,
no doubt, do we'll They have advertised the
New Orleans Jubilee Singers and brass band
We understand these gentlemen OF color have
all been slayes-at least To appetite, and were all
raised south-of Montpelier, Besides jubilee
songs their band will play southern melodies.
Then we soc that Mr. l.. r. Heath Is to play In
the farce !" Peace and Quiet" and that alone
ought 10 draw fall house, and last but by
no means least Is the oyster supper to be served
during the evening. The boys have worked
hard and should sec a full house Twenty five
cents Ia all 1t will cost you TO get In, and you
will be well paid. 1--we were deceived and Inn
posed upon last week In the item In regard to
Miss Little. II WAS brought In by young man
who will yet learn that the way OF the trans
gressor IL hard. The item, 30 innocent In APP
pearanee 10 one who does not know the parties
las we did not), was entirely untrue, and was
prompted by motives OF revenge. We regret
that we were the means, however innocent OF
causing the young lady trouble, but promise to
do our part to bring the offender to Justice
