THE GLASS BLOWERS.

Manager Tucker and Mr.. Hopkins of
the Bohemian Glass-Blowers are at the
Logan House this week, Mr.. Woodroffe
being in Massachusetts on business.
Next week the company will give an en-
tertainment at the town hall every even
ing except Tuesday. They had good
houses last summer and are certain to be
well patronized this time. They come
under the auspices of Russell Post, an
organization that deserves the hearty
support of the community.
THE MCGIBENY FAMILY.
OF this company, which will appear at
the town hall next Tuesday night, the
Montreal Witness of the 9th inst. says:
A charming change from the ordinary
run of concerts was that given by the
extraordinary McGibeny family last
night at the Queens Hall and yet they
never sacrificed music for the sake of
sensationalism. Every member of that
tremendous family seems to be musi-
clan with two or more instruments on
which he or she is an adept; and more
over they all have excellent and cultivat-
ed voices. From the still vigorous father
to the little child Of four or five summers
(who in one piece played drum In which
he and one or two of his brothers could
stow themselves away, allare thorough

HIS LEG BROKEN.

A. A. Holden, foreman of the Middle
bury section, had his right leg broken
on Tuesday afternoon. He was riding
on the hand car with other men, and
when the machine was going at a rapid
rate on a down grade his coat became
entangled in the cranks. He was thrown
violently to the ground and one of the
bones of his leg was broken close to the
ankle and the ankle severely sprained.
He was also badly scratched about the
face and body. DIR. Smith was called,
and, assisted by DR.. Russell, cared for
the injured man. Mr.. Holden will prob
ably be laid up for some time.

THE ADDISON House TO BE CLOSED.

Mr.. Darwin Rider, proprietor of the
Addison House, has decided to close his
hotel about January l, or as soon as the
current term of court is over, and to
keep it closed till about the middle of
May next. He is led to this course by
several considerations. In the first place,
Mrs. Riders health is poor in conse-
quence of Overwork. She has faithfully
and carefully attended to her part in the
management of the hotel ever since it
has been in its present owners hands,
now something more then twenty-five
years, and requires the rest she cannot
obtain so long as the house remains
open. Then the house needs to be paint
ed inside, and that can he done to better
advantage during the winter if the house
is shut to the public. The new liquor
law, too, has. indirectly, influenced the
proposed move. Since that law went
into effect Mr.. Rider has declined to sell
intoxicants to any one, even to guests of
the house. Those best acquainted with
hdNC iohS huOWh todI DlOtT
never liked that part of his business, but
did it because there appeared to be no
way of avoiding it if he continued to
keep hotel. He is therefore glad to find
in the enactments of the last session Il
sufficient reason for doing away with
that feature of the house. But, as every
one who has lived in hotels is well aware,
while the profits from the bar are small,
the fact that liquor is sold at house
adds to its general patronage. In other
words, large hotel cannot be run, in a
small town especially, if it doesn't deal in
liquors. We may lament the bad taste
of the travelling public if we will, but we
must recognize the truth. The Addison
House is a costly affair to keep going,
particularly in winter; and the proprie.
tor, all things taken into account, prob.
ably takes the wisest course in closing
The necessity of this step on his part is
to be regretted, but his experience is not
unlike that of hotel managers elsewhere
in the State, as at st. Adams, where the
Weldon House has been closed and will
be run hereafter as summer hotel only.
