Miss Marion Willis gave two read

Miss Marion Willis gave two read |
ings in this city last week, and she not |
only maintained, but added to the |
brilliancy of her record and reputation
as a public reader. The first evening she
presented a program of short selections,
everyone of which elected the hearth
est applause. On the second evening
she gave the greater part of Romeo and
Juliet in costume, and a more ENJOYABLE
evening it would be difficult to imagine.
Her dramatic poems are truly wonder
ful. She impersonated the various char
acters with the skill which stamps her a
genius. She was simply superb.
1t is an assured fact that Sank Cen
tire will have board of pension exami-
ners consisting of Drs. McMasters and
Lewis of this city and Campbell of Mel
rose. Senator Davis has made the re-
commentator and the physicians named
above have been requested by the de-
partment OF pensions to state whether
they would accept the appointment.
This is in accordance with a suggestion
made by Senator Davis when here last
tall, and a petition was sent in to that
end. This will be a great saving of time
and expense to large number of pen
sioners who are residents of this vicinity,
as they will no longer be compelled to
go to st. Cloud or Alexandria for ex-
animation.
The literary ASSOCIATION had very
pleasant meeting on Monday evening;
Rev. Leonard Smith reading paper: Is
there Caste in America? he taking an
| affirmative view of the question. The
| paper elected a lively discussion which
was participated in by several members
The essay was thoughtful one and
though taken at disadvantage, Mr..
Smith having kindly consented to sub
stitution for an absent member, with
very short notice, it was excellent. The
next meeting will be held on Tuesday,
December 26th, as Monday will be pref
| ty generally observed as Christmas,
N. H. Miner will then read paper on
Theosophy.
