Owing to the warm and excellent

The ball given at Coburn Han Friday
night of last week, under auspices of the
Skowhegan Woman's Relief Corps,
socially was Il grand success to those in
attendance but most unfortunately, con-
sideriug the worthy cause for which the
ball was given to aid financially it was Il
failure, Notwithstanding enough money
was taken to cover expenses. The
music by kendall's orchestra was of
first-class order, and the ladies of the
Corps served delightful refreshments at
intermission.
Bixby & Buck have issued neat little
folding timetable of the ). & y, electric
road, giving both the weekday and sun
day running schedule. Aud right here
let us say to the management it would
be well to caution their conductors about
following out this schedule as far as
possible. 1t frequently happens, as we
learn, that Notwithstanding the ears are
to leave the crossing here ON even hours,
they sometime depart from two to five
minutes ahead of time. Now this won't
do with the public, as many times in
consequence people have been left. If
you are late five minutes no material
harm is done, but leaving ahead of time
gross negligence of those in charge,
just arrived at the South Side Grocery,
one case of White Rose fl ur, $3.50 per
Dbl. There is no better -four sold in
Somerset county for less than $375.
Why not call and get Il free sample of
this flour and give it trial.
