The Ancient and Honorable Artillery COM
pany has braye]y gone through all the wars
that have ever taken place in North Amer
lea, either as body or the members volun-
tarily enlistinG individuals In the war
of the Revolution many of them were killed,
and the company always held itself in readi-
ness during the first years of this century to
resent any British invasion on the city of
Boston. In the civil war the ranks of the
company were very much depleted by tn.
loss of many of the members who had gone
to the front and been killed in battle AT
the close OF the war, however, a large acces
sion Of members took place. and at the pres.
ent timS there is an active roll of 575 mem
bers, few having resigned or been discharged
for the past few years

Cover Up at Night.
It is not, however, sufficient to keep tho
body warm during the day; but, on the con-
trary, the brain worker must see to it that
the radiation Of bodily heat is as effectually
prevented at night as during the working
interval To this end, if he be thin and ''cold
blooded," there is not the slightest objection
to his sleeping upon light feather bed, the
covering to which should consist of two or
three good blankets, and on exceptionally cold
nights a quilt of feathers, like that employed
in some parts Of Germany. am fully aware

AT THE THEATER.
A Hole In the Ground.

Charles Hoyt's latest production is
styled A Hole IN The Ground and deals
with a wildly exaggerated phase of the
ills which beset railroad travellers. After
several bouts with A Rag Baby, Tin
Soldier and the other dramatic freaks
perpetrated by Mr.. Hoyt, everybody
knew exactly what to expect in his latest
effort and were not disappointed. A big
audience witnessed the performance at
the opera house last evening, and it is
only truth to say that they were unaffect-
edly amused with what they saw.
While everything is grotesquely exaG-
gerated there was still some very clever
business introduced. The company is
excellently accoutered for just such a per-
Torrance and were the means of affording
two hours of rollicking amusement.

knights at Church.

The members of the uniform rank,
knights of Pythias, attended in a body
the services at the Congregational church
Sunday evening. 1t was the twenty-ffth
anniversary of the order and a sermon
suitable to the occasion was preached bv
the Rev. A. W. Williams. The text was
Quit yourselves like men," and dealt
not only with the beautiful story of Da-
mon and Pythias, but with the days of
chivalry which have exercised such a far
reaching influence on modern civilization.
The sermon was a notable effort and was
keenly appreciated.

At Keefe Hall Tonight

The Dickens reception at Keefe hall
this evening promises to be the finest en-
t%ertainment given by home people for
many months. The Presbyterian ladies
have been diligently preparing for the
event. The town has been ransacked for
costumes and it is guaranteed that persons
versed in the writings of the immortal
Dickens can recognize the characters
without consulting the catalogue. An
unheard of innovation will be the provi-
sion of refreshments free of charge. The
hall will be decorated as it never was be-
fore. and the event will be just what is
intended, a social reception.
