ance here of Mr. Roland Reed and support
ing company, under the management of
Mr.. Gustave Mortimer, in Marsdens cele-
brated play, Check" The piece is u
good one, with both good dialogue and a
good plot, and affords excellent scope for the
display Of the varied talent of Mr.. Reed in
comedy. 1t Is play simply in which,
with little love.making, little avenging
and some knavery the principal feature is
the sublime check of "Mr. Dick
Smythe," the lost heir, raised on the streets
Of New York, and always ready to take
the chances who finally foils n deep
game OF rascality. turns out to be tp'top
character, and marries, OF course, the girl
In the case. Mr.. Reed is veIy
excellent comedian, with fine facial express
sion and originality of manner, n thorough
conception OF the character personated, and
from beginning to end delighted his au.
dience, His songs of which number
We're interspersed through the acts, were
heartily enjoyed and encored. The male
support without exception, was very good.
"Nell, the high.spirited little ward who
could always take care of herself, and
finally joined her fortunes to Mr.. "Dick
Smythe's, was admirably personated by
deal of animation and vivacity into her role
and played the part IN first.class style.
Miss Hastings, as Mrs. Mabel
Racket the woman In the drama
with an extended experience, was
excellent, her sang iroid and concep-
ton of the character being perfect, the de-
| feet, il any, being that the GOODNESS ana
ease assumed were drawn somewhat too
strongly. The bill MS presented was re-
ceived by the audience last evening, how
ever, with marked satisfaction throughout,
and both company and play are strong
ones. A matinee will be given this after
noon at 2 o'clock, for ladies and children,
chiefly, with reduction of the prices OF
admission, and the concluding performance
will be given this evening.

Poultry Exhibition.

The second annual exhibition of the
Passumpsic Valley Poultry association
will be held at the Town hall on
Wednesday, Thursday and Friday OF
next week. All entries and specimens
must be delivered at the hall before
one o'clock Wednesday afternoon. Ar
engagements have been made by the ex-
press companies to return free of
charge over their lines all specimens
exhibited, and the Passumpsic and the
Lake roads give return checks those
attending the exhibition. The judge
will be George A. Davis of East Mont
pelier. In addition to the regular priz-
es list of special donation premiums
will be offered. The merchants have
offered donation premiums for best dis
plays of poultry and pet stock. The
managers state that the percentage
plan, which was tried at the last exhi-
bitiOn, has proved satisfactory land they
believe it to be the only safe rule to
adopt. The last exhibition was a very
successful one, and indications point
to even a superior one this year.

Have You Seen our Winter Wis.,
itOrS

Your readers have no doubt noticed
this winter f1Ocks of beautiful birds
alighting on our trees, and especially
visiting the crab apple tree, whose fruit
was not gathered in the fall. This is
the Pine GrOsbeak-pinicoIa enucleater
"a bird that does not migrate, as do
the swallow, the bobolink, the thrush
es, etc, but spends the winter in the
north. To large extent it is a resi-
dent of the portions of North America
north of the United States; but Baird
informs us that the northern parts of
New York, Vermont, New Hampshire
and Maine, as well as in western Amer
lea, it is found throughout the year in
the dark evergreen forests. In winter
it is an irregular visitant as far south
as Philadelphia, being in some seasons
very abundant, and again for several
winters quite rare.
The general color of the adult male
is light carmine, red or rOse-not con-
tinuOus above, however, except on the
head the feathers showing brownish
centers on the back where, too, the red
is darker. The breast and abdomen is
whitish, the under tail coverts ashy-
gray, wings and tail dusky, edged with
white the former with two white bars
bill short, stout and strong, for crack
ing seeds.
The female is about the same size of
the male, but without his brilliant
plumage. She is of an ashy color,
brownish above, tinged with greenish
yellow beneath. These birds are very
social, giving a cOaxing musical call,
but are without song in the winter. In
summer they are charming sOngsters,
and if reared in cage will sing during
the night very much as the mocking
bird does. They will not bear cOnfne-
ment if caught after maturity. They
have been more numerous here this
winter than for several years, being
driven south, no doubt on account of
the severity of the season. Please do
not shoot them.

A Little Wait.

On Wednesday night of last week
about half-past ten o'clock, DR.. and
Mrs. L. r. Grow were awakened by
three sharp pulls at the doOr-bell. Up.
on going to the door they found on the
porch a pastebOard box, such as con-
tains ladies' underwear. Upon taking
off the cover, they found snugly rolled
up in blankets male baby, supposed
to be less than twelve hours old. Ii
was dressed in night clothes, laid upon
a dozen or so of necessary articles OF
dress for babies, and alongside was a
bottle of milk and some ether. The
condition of the child showed that il
had not received the proper medical
attendance. The child had been ether
lied, therefore it made little outcry.
When found it was recovering from the
effects, and was making feeble cries.
1t weighed four pounds and fifteen
ounces in its night clothes. The clothes
in which it was dressed were old and
had been used before. He thinks the
ether was administered by no novice,
as the child was so frail that the ad-
ministering of ether was a delicate op-
Grafton and one naturally attended
with much risk. The child is doing as
well as can be expected under the cir
cumstances.
The child could not have fallen into
better hands. Probably no one knows
this better than the mother who left
the child, or caused it to be left, at the
doctors door. He and his wife have
adopted three children before this lat
est arrival, two of whom, both bows.
died, and the third, miss of fifteen
years of age, is now living with them.
They will keep and care for the little
stranger, if it lives, and give it a warm
place in their affections. They have
not yet decided on name.
