Rev. P. H. Mason gave Boscobel
people an opportunity last Friday even
ing to witness one of his interesting
stereopticon entertainments aud lee
lures. In this particular branch of
gospel education MIR. Mason excels and
all who have once heard him lecture
and seen the vivid life-size pictures
thrown up by the stereopticon are again
anxious to hear him.
Miss Olive Thompson, who appears
for the first time in our city this even
ing, comes to us highly recommended
by the press and critics of dramatic art.
From both she receives flattering testi-
monials of her impersonating power,
which are pronounced superb, both in
voice and appearance. As delineator
she tanks high. Her performances on
the banjo is especially commended.
On the evening of the 29d, day before
Thanksgiving, Lancasterites are to be
favored with one of Mr.. Darlington s.
The Drummer Boy of Shiloh,
plary and amusing entertainments,
which has been given the very appro-
pirate name of Miscellaneous Wander
ings." During the evening Mr.. Car
rington will introduce magnificent and
realistic scene of battles with the stere-
opticon.
Mr.. Albert Hyde and Miss Alma
Curry were united in marriage by Rev.
P. H. Mason, at o'clock. Wednesday
morning. The marriage was SOL
emnized at the home of the bride, in the
presence of the relatives of both parties
and few guests. Both of these young
people have the confidence and esteem
of many friends who now extend con-
CALCULATIONS in which the HERALD fer
vently concurs.
miss Thompson's impersonatiOn of
the Elf Child, illustrating child spoilt
by ghost and hobgoblin stories, was one
of the most artistic performances ever
seen upon the boards. The Bobolink'
watching the lovers was another effort
of great merit, requiring the highest
powers of imitation, and was simply
perfect. Her instrumental pieces 4re
alone worth the price of admission.
She is capable of giving an evening of
fine intellectual enjoyment and is at
times very amusing. "-.Jour1aaI, Adams.

In another column will be found the
full report of the Sitter school. which
is being most admirably conducted by
Miss Lou. E. French of this city. A
glance at the report instantly gives one
a favorable impression with the work
done since the beginning of the term.
The average standings are good, and
of some pupils excellent Very rarely in
deed does village school do better or
more satisfactory work than this school
shows it has done, and we congratulate
the people of Sitter in having secured
so efficient teacher as Miss French.
j. Nathan & Son have followed the
example set by Mr.. Baldwin, whose
store adjoins theirs, and have added
much to the appearance of their store
by putting in neat plate glass front.
Our merchants have all been very pros
porous and have enjoyed a lucrative
trade the past summer. This state OF
affairs is due partly to the prosperous
condition of the farmers of this vicinity.
In fact the past year bids fair TO go
down in history as being the most gen.
orally prosperous for America and
Americans that they have experienced
in the last decade.
