MARYLAND Matters.

The ladies of st. Rose Catholic
Church, at Chesapeake City, are holding a
festival at the Masonic Hall. It began
last evening and will be continued until
next Wednesday evening.
= During the oyster season, Cristield
oyster men packed 200, 900 bushels, Cam
bridge COO, 900 and Seaford 100000, whilst
at all other points on the Peninsula only
about SOC, 900 bushels were packed.
A person representing himself to be
the agent Of a New York fashion journal
is travelling through Cecil county swind-
ling those who will bite at his offer of a
years subscription to $3.50 Magazine for
50.
= The Warwick public school, OF which
Miss Matte Nichols is teacher, will give
public exhibition in E. E. Marsh's store
room on Friday evening, December 2lst.
The proceeds Of the entertainments are to be
used to buy a dictionary and globe for the
school.
"a The "Veasey Farm in Sassatras
Neck, Cecil county, part Of the estate
of the late William Knight, was sold at
public sale by the executor, at Elkton,
on Tuesday. Mrs. Elizabeth Groome,
of Elkton, was the purchaser, at S54.5O
per acre. The farm contains 345 acres
and is a very fine piece of real estate.

The IIYcRun.

A large audience filled the Irving Ly-
ceum room on Tuesday evening to hear
discussed the following question, Which
is mans greater worry, woman or bust
ness?" The Rev. Mr.. Stengle opened
with lively speech in which he at
tempted to prove that about all the trouble
man has had from Adam down has been
caused by women. The speech was full
of fresh humor that kept the audience in
a merry mood during its entire length.
Two Of the debators selected to support
the side which contended that woman
is the greater worry, were not present,
and thus Mr.. Stengle was LETT without any
support. In this condition he was found
by the Rev. Mr.. Murray, of Wilmington,
who was present as a visitor, and he, by
invitation, made a short speech to help
Mr.. Stengle out, though Mr.. Stengle
didn't seem to need much help. Mr..
Murray argued that woman is the greatest
worry man has in all the world that the
yery sweetness of woman worries man
about half to death. The other side Of the
question was supported by the Rev. Mr..
Alexander, J. F. Deakyne and w. P,
Biggs. These gentlemen were able de
tenders of woman and they won the case
The judges decided that, according to the
argument, business is mans greater
worry. The discussion was lively and
entertaining. Very pleasing musical Sc
lections were rendered by the ladies be
fore and after the debate. The Lyceun
will not have meeting on next Monday
evening. At the last meeting in thu
month, on the 31th, the semi-annual elec
ton of officers will be held.

Odessa Public School.

The Odessa public school is we'll graded
and the pupils are making good progress
in their studies under the careful instruc-
ton of Mr.. Herman Bessey, the principal,
and Miss Matte Green, his assistant.
Several of the higher studies, including
Latin, have been recently introduced.
The appearance of the school building
has been much improved by the painters
brush, and the belfry has been reguilded
and surmounted with tasty quill final.
A numder of "Triumph" desks have
been placed in both departments. The
following named pupils in the higher
department attained an honor grade dur
ing November: Ella A. Rhein, Ella
Walker, Charles West, May C. Enos,
Chester Gibson, Charles Gibson, Mary
Peacock, Sallie Enos, Ruth Naudain,

Helen Potter.

The last entertainment in the Middle
Lyceum Course, Miss Helen Potter read
ings and ilnpersonations on the evening
of December 9th, will probably draw as
many people as our hall can seat. Miss
Potter is so well known to the public as
the greatest reader and impersonator now
on the platform that it is hardly necessary
for newspaper to say word in her praise.
No other artistic in America has so firm a
hold on the Lyceum patrons from Maine
to California, and there are none who
command as high fees as she does. Few
towns of the population of Middletown
have been offered the opportunity to hear
Helen Potter, and it is not likely that
Middletown will soon have a second
opportunity to hear her. The high fees
which she commands is the best evidence
OF her continued power of attraction and
popularity. She has been long tavorite
in Philadelp phia, where she has repeatedly
appeared in Mr.. T. B. Pugh's Star Course
at the Academy of Music, and Mr.. Pugh
has never brought an artistic upon his
platform who has attracted larger audien-
ces and won more praise from the press
and public than Miss Helen Potter. It
has been said Of Miss Potter that, " AS a
public woman she stands utterly above
reproach as private person, she is loyal
and lovable. Generous to her friends,
just to her foes, large hearted, fine grained,
honest and fearless, of superior intellect
and undoubted attainment; she stands
prominently among the women whom all
womanhood should delight to honor" We
would advise our readers who expect to
attend this entertainment to secure seats
as early as convenient. A plan of the hall
may be seen and seats may be secured at
the Middletown postoffice.

..ten Esther.


The dratorio Of Queen Esther will be
produced by home talent, under the direc-
ton of Professor D. P. Wyatt, at Middle
town Hall on the evenings of Monday and
Tuesday next, with the following cast OF
characters: Queen Esther, Mrs. Belle
Price Ahasuerus, J. L. Gibson; Zeresh,
Mrs. H. NJ. Price; Haman, George G.
Rowe; Prophecies, Mrs. r. /. Price
Mordecai, Samuel Price; Mordecia's
Sister, Miss Mary Paullin; Angel,
Miss Bessie Budd; Maid Of Honor, Miss
Mary Budd; Queens Attendants, MISS
Laura Jump and Miss Flora Bean !;
Zeresh's Attendants, Miss Jennie Lether-
burv and Miss Sallie Paullin; Queens
Maids. Miss Alice McColgan and Miss
Cora stevens; Queens Pages. Miss Mary
Pleasanton and Miss Nellie Biggs; High
Priest. J, R. Wilson; Hegai, w. n.

Mitchell; Guards, J. j. Hofecker, James
Burnhan, Cuthbert Green, James War
rem; Kings Pages, Hally Clayton ana
Curtis Holten; Zeresh's child, little
Mary Given. About one hundred and
fiftv persons, adults and children, will
sing in the oratorio. The class has been
rehearsing almost nightly for about three
weeks and will no doubt present the
oratorio in a style creditable to them
selves and highly entertaining to the
audience. The costumes worn in the pro-
duction Of Esther are very handsome, and
add greatly to the pleasing effect OF the
sacred play. Much interest is felt i'll the
coming production and it will probably
attract large audience on both evenings
for which it is announced. The disposal
of the share of the net proceeds, if any
fall to the class, is left with committee
of five persons. This committee will pro-
bably want to learn how much money
they will have from the oratorio before
deciding what disposition to make OF it.
1t has been suggested that it be used to
help establish a free library and reading
room and we think the suggestion an ex-
cellent one. The committee could hardly
put the proceeds of the oratorio where
they would do more good than into good
literature, and we have no doubt but the
free reading room, if once started, could
be kept going to do good in the years
to come,
