The Sons of Vermont Entertainment.
a surprise was in store for the large at
tendance at the twelfth anniversary meeting

OF the Native Sons of Vermont at Odd Eel
lows Hall. 1t consisted of change of
management, Mr.. Cotton, the President of
the last four years, giving way to Mr.. Dill
IIngham. and other changes occurring
" On retiring, Mr. Cotton was presented, in
justly euiogizing speech by Hon. A. W.
Scott, with a handsome diamond l0cket and
gold chain, which he received with a few
appropriate remarks, in his usual happy
style. Mr.. Cotton will be doubtless missed
from the place he has so ably filed, while
Mr.. Mott, another retiring officer, will also
leave notable gap in the ranks. The in
coming officers are, however, certain to have
the support of the association.
The following programme was presented:
Overture, Blum's Orchestra; fencing ex-
hibilion, Miss Emma l.. Code, Miss f. Myra
Holiday: speeialties, Musical Fletcher;
recitation, ''ZinGarella, the Gipsy Flower

Miss Martin was scarcely audible to the
emu Oh tue nan, DuI HeT RECITATION was well
received, together with her encore from
''PlcRwlck." The musical punch-bowls of
Mr. Fletcher evoked three recalls, and the
fencing exhibition was thought worthy of a
repetition. Miss Aud was enthusiastically
welcomed, and delighted the audience with
three selections. Last of all came tile mel
odramatc SKETCH" which ran rather tamely,
particularly at first, but warmed up to ward
the close. Mr. Loneragn, well-known am
-aieur, exhibited some capital acting, and
was sufficiently supported by Miss Friel.
Miss Broderick and Mr.. Eogarty seemed a
little subdued. Mr.. Ramon, though made
up! little too young, represented Sir Con-
Yers Conyers creditably. The sketch wound
up the programme agreeably.

manager, assisted by Messrs. Z. o. Rieser,
w. j. Z. Bartlett and 5. G. Cheeyer.
