Jubilee at Otis Chapel.

As it is the custom of the Band of
Hope of Otis Chapel to hold Jubilee
every year, Thursday was the day select
ed for its celebration. In the afternoon,
tho attendance was small. and as the
writer was late in getting their, of course
it was difficult to obtain full account of
the afternoons progress. 1t consisted,
however, mainly of dialogues, declama-
tions, reading and singing. After the
exercises were over, myself and friend
met Mr.. Chas Walton, who kindly intro
duced us to our unknown temperance
friends, and fiually took us homo with
him, where a most excellent supper was
being prepared, All the Injuries usually
found on farmers table were there in
abundance, and after pertaking most
heartily of the delioacies, we took a roam
about the farm and spent several hours
very pleasantly. The evenings atten-
dence was large and the declarations by
the younger children wore pronounced
good" A couple dialogues were act
ed by some members OF the 1. o. of G.
r., of Newark, and very interesting
article read and several selections sung
by Miss Mamie Whistler of the same
town. The rest of the exercises were
conducted by the members of the cold
water Society, with the exception of a
defamation by Mr.. H. W. Zimmerma u
of Wilmington, entitled "The Scolding
Wife" Mr.. VIM. Walton won the ap-
plause of his hearears in defamation,
and several selections were sang by the
young ladies of the Society that did
themselves credit. A defamation by
Harry Simmons was received with ap-
plause. Everybody present seemed well
pleased with the exercises Refresh
ments were served in the grove adjourn
the chapel. A GOOD TEMPLER.

A Complete Surprise.

On Tuesday the relatives Of Mr.. VIM.
Armstrong, living near Lewisville, gave
him surprise party. 1t was the occa-
sion of his sixty second birthday ami
versary. The affair was kept profound
secret, and all arrangements completed
in detail by the originators. The day
opened rather unpromising, but the
clouds soon cleared away, aud all who
were invited fastened to the place of
meeting-the residence of Mr.. G. Clayton,
a short distance from the house. By IL
A. NJ. nearly all were present and the
procession started. There was goodly
number present, and as the carriages
rolled down the drive to the house, Mr..
Armstrong was observed in the barn
threshing out wheat. He wondered
what was up. 1t was complete surprise.
He was led from the barn, amid lau ghter,
covered with dust and dirt. Ho hastily
changed his apparel, aud then entertain
ed the visitors. The following were pres
ent: Prof VIM. d. Mackey and wife,
Mrs. John Huston and daughter, Mrs.
Susan Huston and son, Mrs,
Amanda Mackey aud daughter, Walter
Armstrong, Jr,, and wife, Mrs. A. Booth
and son, W. T. Thompson and family,
Mrs. Jos. Lewis and daughter, VIM. H.

and wife, Geo. ]. Smith and wife, ]. M.

nette Oliver and daughter, Rankin Arm
strong and wife, Theo. F. Armstrong and
wife, @. Clayton and wife, A. Boils and
wife, Jno. NJ. Bowen and wife, Henry
Hess and wife, and Rev. T. r. Mcdowell.
About 1 o'clock the feasting began,
and the many good things prepared was
heartily enjoyed by those present. Every
thing was complete and all present had a
most enjoyable day. Later in the eve IL
ing addresses were made by Prof.
Mackey, VIM. Rankin Huston and Vim.
II. Smith. We are sorry that we could
not even get a short synopsis of the
addresses made. Mr.. Armstrong received
some valuable and useful presents. About
O'Clock the guests began to return to
their homes, wishing Mr.. and Mrs. Arm
strong many more such joyous occasions.

On these magnificent grounds, the most
convenient OF access in the city, have
recently been erected series OF splendid

Already the indications are satisfactory
that this will be not only the most COM

tural Society, but in addition tho State
Poultry Society, the State horticultural
Society, and the Philadelphia Kennel
Club will constitute varied attractions,
which, together with the State Bee Keep
ers' Association and the Women's Silk
Culture Association, will all constitute a
display not hitherto witnessed in this To-
cality. Fine herds OF cattle, horses,
sheep, and swine, large amount Of seeds,
flowers, and machinery will all be on ex-
hibition, and the Dog Show, now feat
ure, can not fail TO be source of attrao-
tion and qualification to the many thou
sands who will BIO certain to BIO in atten-
dance.
