The lodgeroom of this active and flourish
ing organization was fairly crowded last
evening by the members of the lodge and
visitors from other lodges. The earnest, in
telligent and progressive membership of
the order, as seen in that assemblage, is
well calculated to give uneasiness to the
liquor interest and drunkard- makers, as
well as to inspire that portion of the COM
munity who would place themselves upon
the side Of temperance with desire to be
admitted to these meetings, and partici-
pate in the business and enjoyments they
present. A number Of ladies and gentle
men were admitted to membership, and af-
terward rendered the usual pleasant recep-
tion, and at its close q large

bench warrant was issued and placed in
the hands of Lieutenant Arnold, who was

procured warrant charging the officers
with trespassing upon his premises without
cause or color of right, and when the case
was brought to Prosecuting Attorney
Moore's attention he promptly entered a
nolle prosequi as the charge could not be
sustained, the bench warrant being ample
authority for the action Of the officers.

sickness at Hampton Soldiers
Home.

An elderly soldier, who has arrived in
South Washington from the Soldiers Home
at Hampton, Va, reports that great con-
sternation prevails among the veterans
about the immense number of sick men
now at the Home. A few days ago they all
sat down to dinner and ate heartily, for the
meal was composed of more than the usual
amount of delcacies. Shortly after dinner
several of the soldiers complained of being
sick and retired to their beds. 1t was not
long before the complaint became epidemic,
and now over 200 of the veterans are sick.
1t is supposed that by accident poison got
into the food. The men are under skillful
medical attendance and no fear is enter

tainment was given last night at the Mount
Vernon Place NJ. L. Church for the benefit
of the Sunday school. The programme en-
braced choice selection of vocal and in
strumental solos and duets, interspersed
with readings and recitations, and the large
and appreciative audience was we'll repaid
for their attendance. Little May Carrigan
gave one of her inimitable recitations;
Misses Ferguson and Webster rendered
vocal duet in a pleasing manner: Miss Bir-
ney, Miss Myers, Miss Bangs, Miss McMur-
ray, Miss Roberts, Miss Grigg and Messrs.
Forseman, Wilson, Forsyth and Professor
Townsend made up the remainder of the
programme, and their efforts were well re-
ceived. The feature of the entertainment
was the rendition of the beautiful solo,
Last Hours of Joan of Arc" by Miss EN-
ma Detweiler, one of Professor Bischof7s
most promising pupils. This young lady
possesses remarkably sweet and well cul-
tivated voice, which she used in such an
effective manner as to call forth a hearty
encore, to which she gracefully responded.
The entire entertainment reflected great
credit upon the performers, and it is under
stood handsome sum was realized.
