In 1881 the number of women regis.
tered to vote in Boston was 10000. In
1889 the registration lists showed only
10000, and this year only 5000 women
have qualified to exercise the right of
suffrage. Evidently women's rights
are not so delightful as they seemed
when distance lent enchantment to the
view.

RELVIDERE.

The friends and relatives of Capt. r. d.
Whittemore and wife met at their home and
gave them a surprise May II. the 10th ami
versary of their marriage, and left a token
of friendship a number of presents, among
them a set of chairs, a set of silver spoons,
and many other presents too numerous to
mention.
And it came to pass in the reign of Fillmore
the chief ruler in that time A. D 1850, when
all the land seemed blessed and at peace, just
forty years ago to-day, two noble souls
Joined heart and hand and set sail in the life

they were well calculated to keep the boat
from running against the shoals as time flew
on and on. But anon a cloud arose. Our
country was in peril. We will not repeat the
story; it is known too we'll We know fond
hearts gave up their idols; and Mrs. White
more was left to paddle the canoe alone. You
well know how hard and faithfully she la
bored to preserve her home, care for and cul-
tivate the three young plants that were given
them. Not only was her work felt in her own
home but charity and kindness went out
toward all humanity. As for Capt. White
more he labOred to preserve not only his own
home but home for Others, and his name is
enrolled as one of the brave men who labored
to defend the grandest country beneath the
sun. Like Washington he was not to be
killed with powder or balls, but permitted
through an honorable discharge to return to
his home and friends. Years of JOY and pros
perity were theirs bnt alasl shadows will fall.
One lovely flower they had tended with so
much care was transplanted to home
above; and still the sun shines. They have
much to live for, and we wish them happiness
in the years to come And may we all meet
here ten years from to-day to celebrate the
golden wedding of this loved and hOnored
couple. C. b.

Everybody is expected to invite as
many old residents of their acquaint-
ance as they can entertain.
The committee will put on sale
10000 yards of bunting and flags at
a nominal profit for decorative pur-
poses.
Centennial affairs are all the while
crystallizing, and the committee will
skip a week without meeting. the

evening, June Z, at 8 O'Clock. Stowe
COrnet band, which is newly uni
formed and is receiving thorough
drill, has been engaged, and with the
Sherman band will give us some rous-
ing good music. Grand Army organ
izations, which have been invited, are
sending their acceptances to the COM
mittee. 1t is eXpected that beside the
infantry to take part in the parade
there will be n company of about for
ty mounted men. An interesting fea-
ture will be a large representation
from the Malvern and Uttons horse
