SUNDAY CONCERTS
At Harmonic and Turner Hals--
Schiller Anniversary.

Schlaler Anniversary.
The first of the winter series of Har-
monta Sunday evening concerts was given
last night. The attendance went to show
that these musical feasts have lost none of
their old-time popularity. The hall was
well filled with representative German fam
lies. and not few prominent Americans,
who own love of music. The program
was made up of two overtures, by the DAM
orchestra, and various vocal effects BY the
Harmonic society. The serenade, by the
string quartet, was undoubtedly the musical
gem OF the evening. The Harmonic male
chorus, in two numbers, Were heard to good
effect, and the concluding solos, with
mixed chorus, were highly enjoyable. Mr..
Hottie displayed his pleasing tenor voice to
advantage, and Miss Ripe. Miss Schien,
Mrs. Benkendorf and Messrs. Schien,
HOtZe and HuXmann and Miss Boehm all
contributed to the success of an ex-
ceedIngly well-arFanged program. The
latter half of the evening, after the musical
instruments had been laid aside, was en-
joyed socially by the large and congenial
company. The society has every reason to
be satisfied with its initial concert.
TURNER HALL CONCERT.
Inc SeCOIu DduL cOuCeIb was gwen DIT
Turner hall yesterday afternoon in the
presence of the usual large audience.
There were ten selections on the program,
and all of them were of the very best
music. The Poet and Peasant overture
and the selections from ''Nikado" appealed
to the popular taste very successfully, the
Strauss waltz of course receiving generous
plaudits.
SCHILLER CELEBRATION.
CTo-morrOw evening will be the one
hundred and twenty-hfth anniversary of the
birth OF Friedrich Schiller. the great German
poet, and it will be appropriately recognized
by celebration at Harmonic hall under the
auspices of the dramatic society, of which
DR.. Hinsch is manager. The society will
produce the first act each of Wilhelm Tell
and Marie Stuart. and Prof Kost's orchestra
will perform number of selections.

vaccinate or BE Indicted.

TORONTO, Ont, Nov. S.-The lieutenant
governor has issued an order that every in
dividual in the service of the province Of
Ontario be vaccinated forthwith. 1t is sug-
gested that as vaccination is an almost GER
tain prevention of disease the question
should at once be made, as parents will
fully neglect this preventive, whether
indictments of criminal character up to
manslaughter should not be where children
who have not been vaccinated are permitted
to be carried off by the disease.

LOWER BRIDGE WORK.
Status of the Washington Avenue
and Northern Pacific Spans.

The double bridge work at the turn of
the river at Washington avenue south is
progressing rapidly and before the heart of
the winter reaches US the stream will be
SPAWNED by two noble structures, each of
which will be credit to the city and the
Northwest. The city bridge crosses from
Washington avenue on the West side to
Cambridge street. just above the old Cheever
landing. which is one of the oldest streets
in the state having been laid out in the
early days of st. Anthony. The stone
work on the piers is entirely completed and
the wire structure is rapidly going up. The
bridge will be ready for travel early in the
winter and will satisfy demand that has
long existed for communication between
the Sixth and Seventh wards. The second
bridge for the Northern Pacific short line
will be a remarkable structure in several
respects. The east end meets a deep
cut in the river bank, resting on an abut-
ment that the engineers say is the largest in
the world. The bridge will rest upon
twenty-seven piers, of which twenty-four
are on the lower flats. The west end of the
structure begins at a point opposite First
street south, the line of tracks rounding the
gasometer and approaching the river in a
long curve. The land piers and one Of the
two river piers are completed, the second
river pier being now twelve feet above the
water. The completed pier is about fifty
feet above the water line, and it is little
singular that all of the accidents connected
with the work have occurred on this pier
One man fell into the river and was
drowned, a man named Ole Hoglund. an
other. A. j. Dahl, fell off and was killed,
and several minor falls have occurred there.
The iron work has been begun by the Edge
moor Iron company of New Jersey. with
force OF thirty men. and is being rapidly
pushed over the land piers. The work on
the piers is being done by force of fifty
two men and will be completed this week
The iron work will be ended in January,
and the bridge is expected to be ready for
the trains on JAN Is

THE CHURCH OF CHRIST.
Something OF Interest Concerning
LIS History md Pastor.

AESfOEy
On one of the most commanding and
fashionable sites in the city, on the north
west corner of Portland avenue and Elev-
enth street. stands plain, unpretenuous
wooden structure known as the Church OF
Christ, There, on every Sunday, assem-
bleS the little congregation whose deStInles
are presided over by Rev. Enos Campbell.
This location was purchased several years
ago at a cost of only So, 500, and to-day the
ground is worth at least SIS, 900 and there
is no more desirable site in the city. The
little body of CampbelliteS or Christians is
in its infancy, having been organized less
than eight years ago, but is prosperous and
growing Eight years ago this now rapidly
increasing sect had no church in MinneapO-
lis. though thoroughly organized in the
state In the spring of 1877, J. LaGrange,
the presiding elder of the Christian Mis-
Sionary society of Minnesota, came to Min
neapolis to ascertain whether any members
of the church resided here and if possible,
to organize a church. Quite number was
found. and on the evening of Feb. II
meeting was held at the residence of Hon.
4. I. Ankeny, at which were present Mr..
and Mrs. Ankeny. Mr.. and Mrs. S. B.
AIattison. Mrs. o. c. Wyman, Mrs. W. S.
Atkinson and Elder LaGrange. Undaunted
by tine small attendance it was determined
to further prosecute the inquiry. and in the
early summer Elder n. 4. Mcconnell Of
Iowa came to the city and began a series of
meetings at the little chapel at the corner
of Ninth street and Fifth avenue south.
AT one of these the church was formed and
proceeded on its work, governed in all
things by the Holy Scriptures. Since then
services have been regularly held. The
board Of trustees was organized by the Sc
lection of o. C. Wyman, A. I. Ankeny
and S. 3. ALattison and deaeons, D. W.
Egan, J. W. Birdweu, Dr.. L. W. Denton

GOSSIP ABOUT PEOPLE.

When P. S. Gilmore reached Minneapolis
on Saturday he was called on at the West
hotel by an elderly resident Of the city who
was an old personal friend of the great
leader They were delighted to see each
other and when Gilmore went down to the
rink to look it over his white haired friend
accompanied him. When about to part
Gilmore remarked: You and your family
must come to the concert. Just see Mr..
BIakely and get what tickets you want" "
At that moment Mr.. Blakely appeared and
announced Mr.. GilmOre'S carriage and the
director entered it. Before the carriage
drove off the venerable gentleman preferred
his request for complimentaries. Mr..
Blakely drew his handsome form up to its
six and half feet of height and coldly
asked: ''On what grounds, sir?" The
head of Gilmore was thrust out of the car
rage door and his voice sweetly was heard:
Personal grounds, Mr.. Blakely." The
tickets were produced.

The Battle at HubbardtOn.

The secretary of the Rutland County
Historical society has Just received copy
OF Hadden's journal kept through Bur
goyne's campaign in 1916 and 1777 cover
ing the battles of Hubbardton and Ben
nington up to the inglorious surrender of
the British forces in October at Bemis
Heights.
1t is generally believed that the British
followed the Americans to Casteton, but
according to this journal they remained
on the field of battle in Hubbardton sever
al days after the dead were buried the
army took the wounded and prisoners
back to Ticonderoga The American loss
in killed and wounded was POO the Brit
sh about one-half that number.
There were several journals kept by the
members of Burgoyne's campaign that
have since been published, but this jour
nal fills up certain gaps in this portion of
Revolutionary history which none other
supplies.
While the German troops were in Cas-
Teton, the officers wrote letters home,

THE COUNTRY WEEK.
Eleventh Season.

The special committee of the Boston
Young Mems Christian Union have issued
their tenth annual report of the Country
Week, which has for it's object sending
poor children and others from the city
during the summer months, for vaca-
tion, of ten days or more, to pleasant homes
in the country.
Since the inauguration of the work in
1873, there have been sent out II ,765 chill
dren and adults, the visits averaging
about thirteen days for each.
The number sent in 1875 was 100 in
1876, 800 in 1877, SCI IN 1873, 1916 in
1879, 1916 in 1880, 1877 in 1881, 1889 in
1882, 1895 in 1888, 2042 in 1884, 2259.
Visitors were sent last year into 179
different towns, remaining 2S,47S days
and the average expense per week for
each visitor was $40. At the Country
Home at Wellesley, Mass, 1870 children
and others, mostly invalds, remained
last season 2034 days
The report which contains many inter
esting details of the work, will be sent to
any one desiring it.
Subscriptions are now being received for
the season of 1885, and should be addressed
to William H. Baldwin, President Boston

es the opinion that concentration of Off

and that an alderman connot be superin-

on general principles, and probably covers
the ground that the mayor cannot act as

Tho G. A. X, National Convention,

Gen. II. S. Peck recently received a let
ter from Gen. George l.. Beall of Maine,
chairman of the committee on reception
at the forthcoming national convention at
Portland, asking if they could secure any
tents from this State. Gen. Peck referred
the matter to Gen. Horace X. Ide, quarter
master general, who took the work in
hand and has made arrangements to loan
two hundred and fifty tents for that occa-
sion. He has also suggested that the
tents loaned from this State be reserved
for Vermont veterans so far as necessary,
which suggestion will undoubtedly
be complied with. We understand
that through the energy of II. n.
Leach general passenger agent
of the Burlington and Lamoille road, ar
rangements have been made with con-
Meeting lines so that the rate by that road
and through the White Mountains will be
five dollars for the round trip. Judging
from the reports coming in from all sec
tons of the State there will be II large
turnout of Vermont veterans to attend
the convention and the occasion will I'M
doubleday be one Of great enjoyment.

ACROSS THE LAKE.

Some time ago the board of directors of
the Delaware x Hudson Canal company
issued an order directing all employees TO
undergo an examination to test their hear
ing and eyesight. The engineers refuse to
be examined according to the tests pro
posed and strike is probable. The Al
bany journal states that negotiations are
pending for the reorganization of the
Albany and Rensselaer, iron and steel
works, with capital of s2,50O,OOO. 1t is
said that the Capitalization and Della
ware Canal company's railroad are to be
large stockholders in the new company.
If consummated the new company will
build three large furnaces in addition to
the present plant, with daily capacity
each of no tons. using the Chateaugay
company's and Hudson river ore. The
Plattsburgh hotels are advertising trout
suppers in utter disregard of the new
State law Of New York, which makes a
man liable to heavy fines for even having
such fish in his possession before the first
of May. The Plattsburgh Telegram
saws that the Crown Point iron company
has Just completed the shipment of l5,OOC
tons of iron To the Albany and Rensselaer,
