bers Deacon Phillips, Deacon and Mrs. K.
E. Andrews and Mrs Amy =. Hibbard, who

BY far the finest views of Montpelier
which we have ever seen are those recently
produced by S. w. Corse and on sale at the
Phinney bookstore. They are twenty in
number and include, besides views of differ
ent parts of the village from various points,
the pictures of the churches, Capitol and
other prominent edifces. All are remark
ably clear and well finished, and the selec-
tions show excellent taste on the part of
the artist.

THE members of the band are making ac-
tive preparations for their trip to Portland
week after next. The band will number
twenty-four pieces, the principal REINFORCE
ments being clarinets and trombones The
following is the Instrumentation: Piccole,
+ flat clarinet, three flat clarinetS, K flat
cornet, four fiat cornets, three E flat al
tos, two b fiat tenorS three B fiat from
bones, baritone two L fiat tubas, bass
drum, snare drum and cymbals. The uni
. forms of the band will be complete and will
include some desirable improvements upon
, that worn by the boys on Memorial day. To
furnish street music will be the principal
, work of bands during the encampment at
Portland, and we are confident that no
band, of the same number of pieces, will do
better than that from Montpelier.

it cost him S9.51 in fine and costs. Three

Smiths went into Huntingtons restaurant
and verbally and pugnaciously abused the
clerk, and little while later, two of the
Y nanded whiskey. They were refused
whereupon they proceeded to enforce their
:. demands by violence. They pounded the
clerk, Mr.. Somerville, numerically, and
served the proprietor, A. ID. Lane, in the
, same manner. One Pembroke, who was in
the store, and endeavored to interfere, was
. also badly punished. Officers Ordway and
. Felt finally arrested one of the fellows and
Officer Tuttle another. The third was
afterwards found, short distance dowr
=, the river and also jailed. In court they
> disclosed on " friend from down country
and were released upon payment of the
. usual fines. Mr.. Lane, though he refused
= these individuals when they demanded
liquor, as was satisfactorily proved, has moi
+ entered complaint for assault and battery

Y treated lightly, A complaint was made at {
n late hour, Saturday night, by the neighbor'
h of the Sharkeys, who live on the Middlese2

u leased.
