proomtield lodge No. 13O, B. of F

rorrespOndcnce or the Demociat
 SufFer me to write few lines to vour paper, l am not a subscriber O! your paper, but expect to be soon. l have been reading your paper, and 1 fnd that there is confusion among xbe B. of F. about B. of F. ticket. Our lodge has been silent on that matter we are submissive to the rulings of the grand and county councils. Now brethren, we have | beautiful organization, our constitu- tion and bylaws are just good enough for you and me, and if we will live in accordance herewith, we will find enough to do without dabling with politics, without we knew more abeut 1t. Now brethren are we go- ing to abide by the rulings of the grand and county council or are we going to abide by a request of com , mon council? Now brethren, if you don't intend to abide by the head of our order, the sooner we can get nd of you the better it will be for the balance of us. Now 1 don't wish to mar the feelings Of any of you by any means, but l mean just what l say, the whole proceeding is out of order. if you want to do anything right be sure to commence right, and go right, and then you will be sure to end right. If you want to pro ceed right get the county council to recInd her former act and then pro. ceed by order of the county council, and not otherwise. The county coun- cil is the head of our order in our county, and is the only council that has the right to do business for the county. Be sure brethren and don't let the request of q common council supcrccde the rulings of it's higher authorities. We are taught in the Scriptures that.the time will come when men will not endure sound doctrine, but will give heed to se- duceing spirits and doctrines of devils. I feel assured that the time has fully come to pass. My dear brethren, beware of these things, be sure and don't do anything that will cause confusion, for house divided against itself can't stand, in union there is strength. Now brethren, is it possible that we cannot be united together in the bars of peace and be subject to the rulings of the head of our order. l suppose a brother says he would give his mules for a B. of F. ticket. When, where, and how does he expect to gain that amount of benefit by the use of the ticket. I will leave that for him to consider.
 In conclusion, will say that all who want ticket under the present system examine your obligation and the rulings of the grand and county councils, and see whether you are right oi not.
 Yours truly,
 R. SHIRLEY.

THE McALlISTEK TROUPE.
The Final Performance This Evening
A Good Bill,


The McAllister troupe played "Fhe
Lady of Lyons to a moderate sized
house last night, but the audience
were well pleased with the entertain
ment. The first and second acts were
droll, and tircscme, as the actors did
not seem to enter into the spirit of
then parts. But from this time to the
drop of the last curtain the company
redeemed what had been lost, and
some real merit was displayed. AS
the Lady Of Lyons, Miss McAllistcr
acquitted herself with credit, aud w.
J. Butler as Claude Melnotte did well
for Young actor; but q. E. Payne,
as the charming dude, broke the heart
of the reporter when he declared his
"damond' ring cost five hundred dol
lars . All in all the play was a sue
cess, and Il much better house was
deserved.
Tonight, the last Of the season, IA
double bill will be presented: "Dora,"
in three acts, and the popular farce
"Naval Engagements" Either rem
ditlon will, separately, be worth the
price of admission.

A FATAL MISTAKE.
A Hunter Killed by = Companion While
Stalking for Deer.

Jared G.. Peck, the Camas Prairie
farmer, came to the city to-day, and
brought the intelligence of sad affair
that occurred there yesterday, which
cost a respectable citizen his life.
William Cross, John Steele, and
another gentleman whose name is not
known, went hunting deer on Soldier
creek, up near Smoky. They had
entered growth Of un1erbrush that
looked favorable as resort for game,
and the party separated to reconnoi-
ter After spending some time in
fruitless search, Steele stopped in a
secluded place, where an excellent
shot might be had in case the other
parties should scare up any game. He
had waited but short time, when
Cross happened that way, and skulk
ing noselessIy through the brush to
get light into the opening, was seen
by Steele, who mistool him for deer,
and drawing fine sight on the sup
posed game, he fred. not caring to
wait for a better shot. No part OF
Cross body could be seen, and his
head was shaded 10y brush, so that he
could easily be mistaken for a deer
The surprise Of the hunters when
they went to pick up the game may
easily he imagined. They found .heir
companion hitless, with bullet. hole
through his head, where he had fallen
in his tracks at the crack of the rifle.
The remains of the unfortunate
man were taken to Soldier, where
preparations are being made for the
burial to- morrow.
Mr.. Steele, being entirely innocent
of any intention to commit crime,
takes the affair greatly TO heart, and
deeply mourns the hard fate of his
! friend,

THE SCENE BEHIND THE SCENES.
An Experience Common with Emotional
ActreSseS-A Few Remarks for the
Benefit OF All Whom 1t May Concern.

Those of the audience who sat near
the footlights, at the Theater last
Monday evening, heard a noise, be-
tween the fourth and fifth acts of
"Rosedale," as of woman sobbiny.
and wondered if there had been a
row behind the scenes. This impress
sion was erroneous. A woman be-
hind the scenes was bathed in 'ssure.
enough tears, but the lachrvmal flow
was not caused by blow, nor even
by haunting or unkind remark. A
ZINES reporter is Informed that it was
Miss Phosa McAllister, who was over
come by the emotional character of
her role
This is not unusual with emotional
actresses; and Clara Morris, Rose Ey.
tnge and other favorltes who appear
III the same line of characters fire.
qnently indul ge in "real'' tears in
their dressing rooms, after "a scene of
more or less realism on the stage.
But there may have been another
cause for Miss McAllister's tears.
They may have been evoked by a
sense of veXation, if not DISCUS,
which she must have felt at the slim.
ness OF the audience, and its
possible lack of demonstrative ap-
proval. The fact is. it is generally
admitted that with the exception of
herself and Mr.. Butler, there is not
another good actor in her company. 1t
therefore follows that the audience,
knowing this, could not have been
properly prepared Tor "wolked up"
as a professional might saw for the
telling situations; and that when
Miss McAllster thought she most
justly merited applause, the audience,
while fully approaching her efforts,
was not in the proper mood to APP
plaud. Then, again, the conditions
are unfavorable to enthusiasm, either
with actors or auditors, when the
audience is not very large.
In time, managers and actors will
learn not to come here unless with
unexceptionable companies. Until they
do, they will be apt to complain of
our lack Of appreciation.

paratively secure from repetition

OLD PUTS WOLF DEN.
An Exploration of the Cavern in which
Gen. Putnam Killed the Wolf.

An Exploration of the Cavern in which
Gen. Putnam Killed the Wolf.
The famous wolf den in Pomfret into
which Gen. Israel Putnam crawled. and
from which, after he had killed the old
she-wolf that mad destroyed his sheep, he
was drawn out by his neighbors by means
of rope attached to his body, himself
pnlling the dead animal after him, says a
Norwich special to the New York Sun, is
gradually filling up with the accumula-
tlon of gravel and stones that fall from
the roof and sides, 1t was visited by
merry picnicking party of ladies and gem
tlemen from Old Mashentuck, East Kill
llngly, the other day. They spread a table
In the lonely brush pasture near the cave,
had dinner, and made speeches about Old
Put, the Revolution, the wolf hunt, and
so on. One of the party, the Rev. g, III.
Child, was appointed to explore the cav
ern. The opening, which is about two
| feet square, is near the top of high ridge
| that is strewn with cyclOpean bOulders,
about half a mile from the country road.
| A few stunted forest trees grow aslant from
rocky fOotholds along the hillside. The
surroundings are wild and rugged. There
| is no dwelling house within many miles,
Mr.. Child squeezed through the aperture,
and, with his lantern on his arm, crawled
along the narrow passage downward for
| seventeen feet. There he reached the
open chamber of the cave, in which he
could stand nearly upright. 1t was inn
possible to penetrate further, the passage
being almost closed with small stones. 1t
was at this point that Putnam saw the
old wolf ten or fifteen feet beyond him,
squeezed into the extreme end of the cave,
stgroWling and crashing her teeth" Half
rising, with his knee for rifle rest, and,
holding his lantern high in his lett hand
above his head so as to illuminate the
further. darkness, Putnam cOOlly sent a
bullet into the animals brain. Mr.. Child
found that the sides of the cave are very
rough and uneven. The roof is as smooth
and regular as though it had been carved
by the hand of man.
The wolf den is five or six miles from
the railroad, and few persons visit it on
account of the difficulty of getting there.
The nearest settlement is POmfret Street,
a beautiful, sequestered country village,
itself several miles from railroads, to
which wealthy city people whose youth
was spent among the hills of old Wind
ham county resort to live over again the
old-tashioned days. Lofty elms and
spreading naples shadow the village, and
all day hardly a sound is heard in its
straight, grassy street. The houses are
old and primitive in style, but very neat
and trim, with fresh gardens on either
side.
