band paraded the Hook and Street, Sat-
urday evening, advertising the sociable.
Afterward, gathering at the hall, they
danced the hours away, to music by the
Bliss orchestra, until II O'Clock. Ice
cream, furnished by w. G. johnson, with
cake provided by the young ladies of the
Sodality of Mary, and other refresh
ments, was served. An easy rocker

At a dinner given in honor of Henry
M. Stanley by his publishers in London,
Mr. Marston said, among other things:
You will all admit that Mr. Stanley's recent
passage through Darkest Africa was a grand
feat. Well, / am inclined to think that the
way he wrote his account of that 6 .and feat
was not much less remarkable. The work
contains, roughly speaking, 1000 pages of 40
lines each. On January % of this year, not a
line of it had been written. Then it was that
Mr. Stanley sat down at the Villa Victoria in
Cairo with firm determination that nothing
earthly should stop him till he had finished it.
In 80 days he completed his self-imposed task
or rather the task which he says imposed
upon him. This means that he not merely
wrote out, but he had to think out 20 pages,
say 5000 words, day. Gentlemen, if you
wish to know what an amount of endurance
and perseverance that means, recommend
you to try the experiment yourselves. 1t is
easy enough TO write 20 very long pages a
day, for one, two, or three days, but to keep
on doing SO Cor so days consecutively, without
any break or relaxation whatever TO speak of,
is quite another matter.
When one considers Stanley's condi-
ton as he set himself down to this task,
we are sure Mr. Marston has said thing
worth noting. The explorer was i'll from
the effects of jungle fever, his sweetheart
was presumably impatient to see him, all
Europe was waiting to do him honor, but
he buckled down to his task and complet-
ed it before he needed the voices of love
or glory. With grit like this, no wonder
he succeeded in his mission and is to-day
one of the most conspicuous characters
in the two hemispheres Another fact
in which humanitarians will rejoice
That so days labor of brain and pen gave
employment to 1000 men and as many
women and girls in preparing the bool
i for publication.-[ Courant.
