Hold Mother Hubbard. -

The entertainment IN the hall Tues
day evening given by the Young
Mems Society of the Congregational
church was pronounced a complete
success by all present. 1t was divid-
ed into three parts. Part first was an
address by Rev. G.. H. Wilson, who
traced the growth and discoursed on
the symbolism OF what to most PEG.
pie was only a little nursery dtty.
The children we're a little restless
during this part, as was TO be be ex.
pected, and at points The speaker was
too deep for some of his audience,
but in the main it was clearly unfold
ed to all; and the great point made
by the address seen, as the applause
at its close indicated.
Part second was the operetta, in
which Old Mother Hubbard and her
dog and her grandchild, all asleep
were surrounded by the fairy host
under its queen-Miss Helen Duff.
The King and train searched the
house of the Old Dame to find the
lost prince, and in the cupboard
found the fairy queen, who broke the
spell and released the prince who had
been for years in that home in the
form of dog. The prince took his
place, and Dame Hubbard was hence
forth happily provided for. The re-
lease of the prince was so quick as
not to be seen by the audience-the
whole was so prettily put as to be re-
membered for long time.
Part third was Mother Hubbard S
Arab Band. interpreted with solos
by Mrs. c. B. Thorn and Mr.. L. j.
Horsman, and cornet solo by Mr..
II. Moore. The appreciation of the
audience was shown in the fact that
they must return, or the noise would
last till morning. The music by the
band defies description. 1t was just
masterful. The only misfortune OF
the evening was the sudden and
severe collapse of S. Z. Parkill at the
{ lose Of tremendous cornet solo.
This damage however was repaired
at once by Mr.. Horsman who "blew
him up" az ain and the entertainment
went on The audience was large,
as it always is at the novel but digni
fed entertainments given by this
society

Another Little Angel in Heaven.

IA poem In memory Of an infant child of A. B
Crane and wife written by Brother Odd Fellow.
Under the pines sweetly rest,
While flowers bloom upon my breast,
was too young, foe to dread,
While mama's arms around me spread.
In mama's arms; In mama's arms,
Death had no sting or dread alarm.
Amid all dangers, seen or unseen,
My papa's hand Is DER me thrown.
1t seemed to sooth with magic power,
And turned to light the darkest hour;
In papa's arms; in papa's arms.
Death had no sting or dread alarm,
When sister would come, my form to see,
Her loving arms spread over me;
Mid scenes of conflict and of grief
Her presence seemed to give relief;
In sisters arms; in sisters arms,
Death had no sting or dread alarm.
So now my friends, weep not for me,
My little spirit now is free;
And where am, you to, may come
BY trusting Christ, make Heaven your home.
In Jesus arms; in Jesus arms,
Death has no sting or dread alarm.
