How Columbus Day was Observed.

HOW columbus Day Was Observed.
Columbus day was observed by the peo-
pie of IIinsdale with appropriate ceremo-
MES. Most of the business places were
closed during the afternoon. The observ-
ance began with parade of the school
children, about 400 being in line. The
procession was formed at the High school
building at 1:15, headed by the Ashuelot
brass band and the Grand Army bows.
One of the most prominent features of the
parade was Miss Lizzie Robertson's turn
out, with the donkey, cart and occupants
arrayed in national cOlors. After marching
through the principal streets the parade
arrived at the town hall, where exercises
were held These opened with prayer
by Rev. Stephen Smith and the reading of
the Presidents Columbus day proclamation
by Miss A. M. Barrows, followed by dec
lamatons and singing by the schools and
short speeches by the clergymen. A song
by George Holland was warmly applauded
Considering the short time given for prep
aration everything passed off in a manner
satisfactory to all and great credit is due to
the promoters of the celebration. Nearly
all the places of business and many of the
private dwellings were decorated with
bunting and japanese lanterns. The post
office was very prettily trimmed with flags
and lanterns and over the entrance hung a
picture of Columbus draped in national
colors. Among other displays worthy of
mention were those of NJ. V. Cotton, Rev.
l.. NJ. Wilde, G.. S. Howe, n. NJ Worden
and TAYLOR. Stebbins d Co.

a Divorce Case in High Life.

Mrs. Eliza NJ. Snively has applied for

dren from her husband, Rev. Thaddeus A =.
Snively, in the Bennington county court
The grounds of the complaint were intol-
cradle severity toward her. Rev. Mr.
Snively is now in Paris, France. Until
last June he was rector of st. Johns Epis-
copal church, the most fashionable relig-
ious organization in Troy, n. Y. Mrs
Snively is beautiful woman and married
DIR. Snively, who was then stationed at
Quincy, Mass, in 1878. Their social re-
lations have been current gossip for a long
time, and from the stories afoat it was
supposed that the husband would figure as
the complainant. Mr.. Snively resigned
his charge in June last and is now in
France. 1t is understood that i'm order to
spare his children from disgrace he will al
low judgment to be taken by default.
Mrs. Snively is sister of Schuyler Cros-
by, who was at one time governor of Mon
tana. The family is one of the most
prominent in social circles in eastern New
York.

summer home, and Mr.. Snively begins the

MYTH appetites sharp as the swords
wv of Spain,
w And pie-crust as long as the coast
Of Maine,
No wonder you're seized with an inward
pain,
And made cross and grabbed.
But when you do shorten the pastry with
lard,
You render digestion remarkably hard
We beg of the cooks of the land to discard
This dangerous habit
1t ruins digestion. The experts insist it
Should never be used in pie-crust or
biscuit,
And never in cooking at all should you
risk it.
But people must,
1t seems,
Have crust
To make pie;
And think it hard to Danish lard
With which to fry.
Now "CoTToLENE" is pure and clean,
And will supply
The place Of lard in this regard.
Suppose you try
Croquettes, and see
How delicate and crisp they'll be.
Physicians, chemists, cooks, all say,
BY using "CoTToLENE" you may
Prepare your food in such a way,
That children and dyspeptics too
Can eat what other people do.
Its color is quite golden looking,
No odor rises from its cooking
1t will at once enlist your favor,
When you have tried its matchless flavor.
Your health and wealth you will enhance
BY giving "CoTToLENE" a chance.

To Recover 100000.
A suit in the Rutland County Court.

suit i'm the Rutland County Court.
George l.. Mussey has brought suit
against A. G. Bates and S. p. Curtis in the
county court at Rutland, to recover $780,
600 damages. The case has been pending
for several years and is now celebrated in
Rutland county. The property out of
which Mussey claims to have been de-
frauded is situated near Rutland village
and was formerly owned by his father who
died leaving 10 heirs, of whom Mussey
was one. He claims to have bought the
remainder of the estate nine years ago for
Sl2,6S5. Bates and Curtis, who were last
owners of the property, he claims, would
not allow him to take possession and have
since then forbidden him to visit the prem
ises. The case has been tried half dozen
times in nearly as many courts, decisions
at times having been rendered for both
parties without a settlement. The proper
ty is worth ten times the sum at which it
was valued when the suit began Mussey

NORTHFIELD, MASS.
The Columbns nnx E.ercises.

Columbus day exercises were not very
elaborate in Mortified, as but little time
was given to the preparation outside the
school-rOom; but they were characterized
by much enthusiasm and patriotic fervor.
The public schools assembled at o clock
and devoted an hour to exercises consisting
of recitations, essays, drills and patriotic
music. Great credit is due our teachers
for the hearty manner in which they enter
ed into the work, and if all school children
are as well drilled on the lessons OF this
day as those of Mortified, the name and
work of Columbus will not be soon for
gotten. A large, handsome flag was raised
at the central schoolhouse, the money for
its purchase being obtained by subscription
by the scholars. One was also raised with
appropriate exercises on schoolhouse No.
9, it being a gift from Mrs. A. ID. Alex
ander.
In the evening the town hall, deliberately
decorated, was packed to overlooking. The
exercises of the evening opened with an
overture by the Mt. Hermon band, which
rendered several selections during the even
ing acceptably, and prayer was offered by
Rev, DIR. Hartzler. The chairman, DIR.
Mp. Wood, read the Presidents procla-
nation and called upon Thomas Mason, a
member of the grammar school, for the
reading of the governors proclamation.
After a solo by Miss Mary Alexander, the
schools, led by Miss Julia Webster, saluted
the flag. Following this were exercises
from the several schools, consisting OF
declarations and essays, from the morning
program. Every school in town was rep
resented and in a most creditable manner.
DIR. n. p. Wood in a brief manner showed
the necessity of impressing upon the youth
of today the lessons of patriotism and good
citizenship, and pointed out that pubic
spirit is one of the most important elements
of a good citizen. Rev. DR.. Hartzler and
Rev. Mr.. Barrows each occupied few
moments in impressing lessons of the day
and age. After a solo by Miss Nation
the singing by the audience of music ar
ranged for the occasion closed the evening
program. The observance will long be
remembered as one of the pleasantest anc
most profitable events in Northfield's his
tory.
