A Remarkable Masonic Lodge.

MT Pierre Mundry, of Falls Village, sends THE NEWS for publication the following Masonic story which he cop jed from the American Telegraph, pub lishsd at Newfield, Conn, Feb 15, 1796. Said copy of the American Telegraph is now in possession of Dr Wilcox. of Falls Village. He secured it froma lot of old papers that Judge Burral left at South Canaan The fact that the story was published nearly 100 years ago lends additional interest to it.
 Brattleboro Vt, Jan 18th. 1796.
 It is said that newly instituted Free Mason Lodge, in this vicinity, consisted of nine bachelors and seventeen married men. At their festival about twelve months afterwards, 1t was discovered that eight bachelors of the craft were married, and, with the seventeen mar ried brethren, had every one son born within the year. The Grand Master had twins, and even the poor solitary bache- Tor, 1t is whispered, had to give bond to the selectmen to save the town harm less from some brethren which might fall on them. If this be true. no wonder that the women are so inquisitive to know their great secrets.

ClinRing to the Last.

The virus of rheumatism often re-
mains in the system through life,
when it does not cut the thread of ex-
istence suddenly, as it is always liable
to do by attacking the heart. Ere the
grip of this tenacious disease tightens,
it should be Embossed by that benefi-
cent liberator from disease, Hostel
ter's Stomach Bitters, which will free
the sufferer at the outset from subse-
quent pain pnd danger. No purer or
more agreeable blood depurent exists,
as multitudes of the rheumatic and
neuralgia have ascertained by certi-
fled experience. 1t is through the me-
dunn of a regular action Of the kidneys
and bladder that an outlet is afforded
for the escape of impurities which be-
get not only rheumatic, but equity all
ments, and dropsical illusions: To
these organs the Bitters gives an i'm
pulse, never verging on the bounds OF
Irritation, but sufficiently vigorous to
cause them and the bowels to per-
form their functions with clock-like
precision. Use it also for dyspepsia,
biliousness, fever and ague and de-
bility. -u

The Turner's.

Mr.. John Beckman, turn-wart or
athletic teacher for the junior class OF
the Turner association, devoted an
hour last night to the teaching OF his
class of small boys, next to Turner
hall. He has class of about 30 boys,
sons of members of the association,
and others, not members, who, under
Mr.. Beckman's excellent care and
teaching are rapidly developing into
wonderful young athletics. This class
is not exclusive, but every lad, under
a certain age, is permitted to join on
the payment of monthly fee OF 70
cents, for which he receives eight les
sons per month.
The Turner association is doing
good work in thus providing the
means of training these boys, many of
whom, when older, will become
members of the association.
The association, which now num-
bers a membership of over 200, also
has a training school, for the seniors,
but only members are allowed to reap
the benefits of this. Mr.. VIM. Voll-
brecht is the turn-wart for this class,
and his pupils number about IL. There
is no extra charge for this class, the
dues of the association, so cents per
month, covering the cost. The nights
for training are Tuesdays and Fri
days. For the juniors, Tuesdays and
Thursdays.
The association has gained 43 new
members since New Year.
