The entertainment given by the
Kelley League of Rutland at the
Blanchard Opera House last week
Thursday evening was worthy of q
better house than greeted them on that
occasion. Their costumes were new
and very attractive. The singing was
fine, the jokes new and in fact was a
first class entertainment. The object
of the show was to raise money to help
some poor man who wanted to take
the Kelley treatment and was not
financially able. We are sorry that
the good people of Montpelier should
let such an opportunity to help
worthy cause pass UNDECIDED.

East COrinth,
merry Christmas is here,
With a smile and a Cheer


Such was the sentiment of the peo-
pie in the Robe neighborhood on the
Goth of December as they gathered to-
gether at the school house to celebrate
Christmas time. Although the air
was chill without no one would have
dreamed it as they merrily brought in
their gifts and jokes to place upon the
trees. Two trees and table were
laden with gifts of use and beauty.
Among the most valuable gifts were
a beautiful gold watch and chain for
Miss Anna Divoll from her parents,
and plush covered toilet case from
her pupils in this neighborhood. She
was very much pleased with both
presents. Leon Londey was the recip-
lent of silver watch. There were
other presents too numerous to men
ton which did not fail to please. The
scholars were very generously remem-
bered by their teachers. The services
of Prof. E. M. Reid were obtained to
act as Santa Claus, which added much
to the merriment of the occasion.
During the exercises which consisted
of songs and recitations by the scholars
Mr.. Reid favored the audience with a
couple of recltals in his usual funny
way and greatly amused the children
and did not fail to provoke ga loud
smile" upon the faces of the more Sc
date. After the distribution of the
presents by Santa and two little girls,
music was furnished by Miss Divoll
and Lester B. Dow upon melodian
and harmonica. A social chat was en-
joyed by all before they broke up for
their homes, aud they parted feeling
well paid for the little trouble they had
taken to amuse the children.

An admission of cents will be charged to all
and an additional charge OF Is or 25 cents will

During the Winter the beach and bathing
houses suffered greatly from the storms. and
for the past two days there has been small
force at work repairing the damage. Fences
have been erected at the two ends and the
northern wharf strengthened so that ii is now
as substantial as at first. There will not be

accommodation of the colored people, as not

Last summer there were $1,000 white bathers
and only about 800 colored.
There has also been effort made for the
comfort of ladies. Six of the bath houses at
the north end have been partitioned off and
are reserved for their especial use. Two life
boats have been overhauled and put in fit
condition to patrol the beach from in the
morning until sunset. The bottom of the
beach has been sanded and graded out for

GOOD THINGS CUT LOOSE
Kenyon and Clara Bell Show a Sample
Of Their Quality.
THREE FAvoRIrEs IN FRONT
Opening at Twelve, the Odds Against Kenyon
We're Quickly Played Down to Five,
While Clara Bell Was Heavily Backed BY
All the Talent-Results in Detail

During the running of the third race at the
Alexander Island course yesterday afternoon
rain came down in torrents and the boys given
thorough drenchirg. The track, which had
been very dusty, was given a good soaking,
and the going was rather heavy for the bal
ance of the day. Two carefully bottled up
good things were uncorked in Kenyon and
Clara Bell. and those in the "know" had
money to burn last night.
Sentinel was an Indifferent first favorite for
the opening race at to 2, while Rebecca, Ken
yon, Aunt Jane, Gaiety, and Marlboro were
all played. A certain set put the money
down on Kenyon, getting as good as 12to !
for some OF it. The odds were quickly backed
down to to 1. closing at that figure. II was
no race for the winner, who galloped home
four lengths in advance Of his field.
Annorean was q topheavy choice for the
second but the favo-ite got off badly and
could never catch the leaders, Blackwood col
laring Tommy Brophy in the stretch and win
ming easily at the end. Margherita was quoted
at to at the opening of the betting, and
to against Clara Bell. The rush to get on
the latter sent her price down to even money,
while to was an offer against Margherita.
Clara Bell got Off first and opened up big
gap. Slack had n strong pull ON Margherita
until half the distance had been run. Then
he cut loose and made play for the leader, but
the task was too much and Clara won easily.
Topmast was always the choice for the
fourth, while all the others had backing
either straight or place. Topmast had things
his own way, winning easily in gallop. with
Tiddlewinks good second. Ella was favor
ite for the last race. and after a tiresome de-
lay she got the best of poor start, and
cantered home ten lengths to the good, with
Luray nearly double that distance In advance
