October %, 1888. !
To the Editor Of the Register:
SIR:-Ths following items appeared IN
the Hancock County Independent OF octo-
Der 10Th:
"Mr. W. p. Hubbard did not speak at
the Washing ton school house on Monday
afternoon, as advertised. The trustees
refused to allow tho school house to be
us. d, aud wien Mr.. Hpbbard and party
appeared on the ground the teacher in
fjrned them che had bsen instructed by
the trustees not to dismiss school"
Tbs, wish to state is not correct. MIR.
Hubbsrd and three other gentlemen came
10 thu Washington school house, and in
auiIei if the President Of the Board q
Education had male arrangements fo7
holding a meeting there that afternoon
On being informed that he bal not, Mr.
Hut bard aud party came i'll and remained
an hour. Their Information about the
Trustees wes not obtained from me.
dom think the Republicans in this dis
trict were much inte 'ted about the
speaking, as there were only seven per
ons present, and only two voters, one Re
publican and one Democrat.

A Trio to Bermuda.

A delightful lecture was that on Bermuda,
which Mr.. K. II. Elwell delivered before the
M. c. M. Association last evening. Every
seat was occupied. and the audience enjoyed
an hour of vivid word coloring, historic
Renaissance and interesting anecdote. The
Bermudas lie 600 miles east of Cape Hatteras
and for long time were the most isolated
spot on the face of the earth. with the posi-
BILE exception of st. Helena. There are five
large islands in the group, and hundreds Of
smaller ones, which, in their totality, take
the form of fish hook.
The climate is temperate. in all the mean

onions. The streets are unpaved, the shops
low and also the dwelling houses, all of which
are of the southern type. The country roads
are hard and smooth, the scenery charming
not grand but picturesque. There is not a
drop Of natural water on the island; not a
spring, not lake, not river; but they have
showers there and utilize them.
Bermuda is not the place for consumptiyes
nor for rheumatics, but for { e oyerworked
and weary, for those who need rest and rec
reation. Tropical plants and fruits do well
there, and bananas. oranges and pomegran-
ates abound. Roses, fifty varieties, breathe
forth their fragrance, and golden rod and
wild geraniums add their beauty. Fish are
in great plenty, and fishing is the business
