A Pleasant Dinner Party.

Governor Irwin and his excellent wife have been the recipients of many social attentions during their visit to Prescott. While no great amount of outward ostentation and display have been made, our citizens gen orally, regardless of politics, have vied with each other in their en- deavor to make the visit of our dis tinguished guests as pleasant as possible. The latter method of manifesting the appreciation felt, for their visit, has the advantage of sincerity, while displays given in public halls with flourish of trum- pets and brass bands are often meaningless. Among those differ ing in politics from the governor, who have entertained himself and wife, is Mir. T. w. Johnston, who with his charming wife, gave de- lightful dinner party to them on Saturday evening. During the visit of MT. and Mrs. Johnston to Phenix last winter they happened to be domiciled at the same hotel with Governor and Mrs. Irwin, and a pleasant acquaintance and warm friendship resulted from their daily contact and social intercourse inoi- dent to hotel life. At the dinner party given by them on Saturday evening, in addition to Prescott's distinguished visitors the following were also present: Associate Jus tice and Mrs. E. w. Wells, Major and Mrs. B. F. Pope of Whipple, Hon. and Mrs. J. |, Fisher, Hon, Harris Baldwin, and MT. T. G. Bar, low Massicks, superintendent of the Lynx Creek hydraulic company The menu embraced all the delica. cies of the season, and being parta- ken of amid pleasant social con. verse with the ever genial host and hostess the occasion proved very enjoyable to those present.

The Robertson Crossing Dangerous One.

The Coroner and jury which held the inquest on
the Robertson Crossing accident last week were of
the opinion that this crossing is one of the most
dangerous on the line of the road, and that some
thing should be done in the natter. When the
railroad was built, or shortly after new road wa
laid oS to avoid these two crossings, and damages
were assessed, but the highway was never opened
up by the city of Belfast.
The coroner and jury last week drew up and
signed a petition to the city government asking
that body to do one of two things-to induce the
Maine Central railroad to maintain gates at these
crossings, or to build the highway laid ont many
years ago 1t is clear to all that something ought
to he done. An accident is likely to take place at
these CROSSINGS al any time
