AFTER moro than twenty years of woman

THE ETHANs' RECEPTION.

A Novelty in Social Events, But Par
tieuiarIv Enjoyable Occasion.
1t is doubtful il even tho mombers OF the
Ethan Allen Engine company realized until
Thursday at their first reception how well
adapted their building is for social gather
ipgs. BY using two rooms in the third
story for cloak rooms it was possible to
give up two entire floors for conversation,
card tables, serving Of supper and dancing.
Guests began to arrive shortly after o. clock
and from that hour until 0 the Howard
Opera House orchestra gave a concert. At
y o'clock dancing began in the engine
room, which proved to be admirably adapt
ed to the purpose. Messrs. q. l.. La
Fountain, f. +. Braiish and Capt. +. L.
Perkins, as a decorating committee, had
made of an ordinarily uuinviting-lookiD
room picture of beauty. The walls and cell
ing were almost entirely covered with bunt-
ing. In addition to the side lights the large
tri-colored shield, which was SO much ad-
mired on the building Columbus day, was
fastened overhead and its electric lights, ar
ranged to make the combination AZ. A. a, I"
gave briliancy to the scene. A canvas on
the floor furnished an excellent surface for
dancing. With an intermission for supper,
served by II. N. Coon in the meeting room,
dancing continued until midnight Those
who did not care to dance, and they were
not many, spent the evening 10 playing
whist in the card room on the second floor.
That the occasion was thoroughly enjoyable
one goes without saying, and the PROPOSE
ton TO hold second reception soon after
Easter will be heartily approved by all who
were present Thursday evening.
Invitations were confined to active and
honorary members of the company. About
60 couples were present, the number in
Guiding good proportion of the active
members and the following; l. s. Borley
and wife and e. +. Lucas of st. Adams,

1t is at rare intervals we fad the man
who has held position continuously with
any firm or employer for 20 years and still
less often do we find the mechanic who has
been in the constant employ OF one depart
ment of O municipality like the city Of Bur-
lington for so long time.
The changes incidental to the election OF
new officials in city like ours often lead to
the replacing of old employees in all depart
ments from the lowest to the highest.
1t is therefore a matter OF interest to our
citizens that Tuesday, Feb. IA, 1898, COM
pletes full quarter of a century that Joel
w. Thomas has been in tho continuous EN-
ploy of the water department of Burlington.
During these many years Mr. Thomas has
had charge of the pumping station be-
side the lake ard under the various
superintendents water committees and
water commissioners Of that department he
has to a great degree been held responsible
to keep the water supply of our citizens
equal to all demands for domestic and fire
purposes. Despite the frost of winter and
the heat OF summer there has gone from the
pumps a stream Of water TO the reservoirs
on Burlington heights that has constantly
given a supply equal to all our needs. MIR.
Thomas is surely entitled to great credit
that his faithful and efficient discharge of
the duties assigned him have won for him
an honor seldom accorded an employe OF

afternoon discussed the following ques-
ton: Resolved that the civil war was an In +
jury to the South. Harris Walker presided,
and tho leaders of the affirmative and mega
tive sides respectively were Edward Wood
bury and Fay Lowell. The arguments of
the affirmative were based on the loss of
life, business and property to the South.
The disputants on the negative side laid
stress on the moral phase of tho question,
the need OF severe measures to eradicate the
great evil OF slavery and the resulting bene-
fits which followed the general reconstruc-
ton. A point OF order ruled out two of
the disputants and the jury gave their vote
for the affirmative. Tho house decided for
the negative.

SEVERELY CHILLED,
Four Tramps, One of them from this City
Inund Eesiho tho knilroad Traok.

Four tramps, ono of whom, Richard Con-
don by name, is said to be Burliugtonian,
after imbibing freely OF liquid nourishment,
started Saturday night from Concord to
walk to Manchester, says the Concord Mont
tor.
The cold north west winds that went sail
ing down the valley at a 40-mle an-hour
clip rapidly took out all the romance OF the
trip, and by the time two-thirds of the dis
lance TO Bow junction was traversed, a war
dance was felt necessary to restore circula-
tion and revive their dropping spirits. Ac-
cordipgly a brisk attempt was made to get
warm. These efforts took all their surplus
strength and soon they felt themselves to be
entirely exhausted. They then laid down
to rest.
An engineer notified the police of Concord
and two OF them went to the scene. They
found three mon, the other man having
gone. One OF the three was insensble and
tho other two nearly 30. Their chances of
recovery arc few. Saturday night was one
of the coldest of the winter.
