anniversary of Lees surrender with a
genuine Old-fashioned campfire in its hall
Saturday evening. 1t has been the GUS
tom of the Post each year to observe
that event with camp fire, and although
they have been enjoyed the one of Satur-
day evening surpassed them all. A
number of posts in the immediate vicin-
ity had been invited to be present and
all responded by sending good delega-
tioLs from Skinner Post, Manchester,
and Dudley Post of Arlington, the for
mer being accompanied by its w. R. G..

sided. He introduced Post Commander
Richard NJ. Houghton, who welcomed
the visitors. Following the welcome
came short addresses from many of the
visiting and local comrades, as we'll as
from citizens of the village and from
abroad. Letters of regret from promi-
nent Grand Army men who were unable
to be present, were read. The Williams
town and North Adams Posts returned

"The effect of the alto voices in B fiat

WEDDING BELLS.

Tuesday evening, April Sd, at the
Thayer- Warner wedding, two of Erie's
oldest and most honored families were
united by the nuptials in st. Paurs
Episcopal church, in that city of Penn
sylvania. We condense from the Erie
Morning Dispatch, as the parties are
well known to Bennington people, and to
some others of our readers:

The "pension budget in the appro-
priations bill is greatly lessened under
Rebel auspices. Here is the evidence of
one man, who is not afraid to sign his
name to his letter: My brother was pen
stoned at So month. He was unable to
answer notice from the Pension Bu-
reau to ''show canse,' being too i'll from
the cause for which that pittance was al
lowed. The pension was suspended.
At Chicago received notice from the
Bureau that my brother was not suffi-
GENTLY disabled to entitle him to draw
that amount. At that time, my brother
was dying of the complaint for which
the pension was granted. Such is the
treatment Hoke Smith and the brave
Lochren give the soldier. Rebels thus
decrease the roll.

OPERA HOUSE ANNOUNCEMENTS.
THE FAMOUS KANGAROO.

Chief among the many intervals of.
| song and dance in the uproariously fuA-t
ny comedy, ''Dr. Bill" which will b0s
presented at the Opera House Monday
evening, April 10th, is the famous KaA-i
garoo dance, a teIpsichoIean diversions
performed by one of DIR. Bills ballet girl
patients. This dance is done in street
costume, instead of the conventional
dress of the coryphee, and in conss-
quence the frivolities of the dance take
on a piquancy which would otherwise be
wanting. 'Dr. Bill'' is one great long
laugh and its fun is fast and furionA--
from the moment the little lady in I, d
dashes into DR. Bills drawing room and
points her toe at the ceiling. 1t is ono
succession of surprises, absurd situa-
tions, cOmical mplications and pleas
ing specialties, and laughter reigns sH-
preme. The play is especially adapted
to ladies and married folks, and is pos
tive incentive to genuine forgetfulnesS
of care, and anyone who can enjoy q
hearty laugh should not fail to see "Dr.
Bill" This will positively be the only
chance offered, as the company goes to
New York, where it will be put ON again
for another run, after which it will bid
fare we'll and ''Dr. BilT' will be thing
of the past.
JARBEAU, THURSDAY, APRIL 10TH
The Indianapolis Journal of March
Sd, 1884, says: That genius of comedi-
ennes, Vernona Jarbeau, who never fails
to bring something new to the front each
season, be the times hard or flush,
opened at English's last night, with n
galaxy of comic songs that bubbled over
with musical gurgles from her rich CON
tralto voice. Jarbeau's throat is as me
lodious as Carolina mocking bird,
while her vivacious cOquetry is still ~
original and fresh as it was nearly eight
years ago, when she started out on her
successful campaign with the magical
starlight" Jarbeau is sup
ported by company everyone of whom
is star in his own particular line.
When all are heard together they are as
strong as whole operate chorus. Be-
atrice Norman has powerful and sweet
soprano, a combination one does not al
ways find, and her Dreaming last
night was thrilling. Hattie Wells did a
toe-dance act that was rapturously en-
cored. OF the commedians, Gus Pix
ley, brother of the late celebrated Annie
Pixley, with his eccentric character inn
presentations, was called out time after
time and made to go through with hIs
dances until he seemed ready to fall.
In an Irresistibly funny Hibernian make
up he sang the famous johnny Dugan"
song as it has never been heard in In
dianapolis. He was encored three times,
but Jarbeau declares that he has had as
high as twelve recalls with Johnny Da-
gan" Pixley and the entire'cempahy go
ing through the last verse repeatedly,
without speaking word, producing tho
killing effect with pantomime. The re-
naming comedy honOrs are divided be-
tween Robeling and Ed. Sandford.

Considering that Canada's manufact
uring establishments have risen from 40.
923 in 1881 to Is, 1853, it is no wonder that
our Northern neighbors have determined
to stick to the prote ctive policy while
longer. That rate of progress would dc
credit to the United States. Contrary ia
popular impression, Canada trades
more largely with this country than with
Great Britain. In spite of all the Tory
efforts to encourage British commerce Of
our expense, Canada's imports from the
United States were $53, 3,6S5,657 in 1891
against $42,047, ,526 from the United
Kingdom. Our Canadian friends appar-
emily prefer American to English goods,
even if the former do cost little more,
and they have excellent opportunities
for judging.

Rhode Island and every Northern COM
mOnwealth which has voted upon the
question, haYe expressed unqualified
condemnation of Grover Cleveland and
the Wilson bill, andeit did not need the
speech of Senator Hill, Monday, al
though good Democratic authority. to
prove that the people have repudiated
Clevelandism and tariff refOrm'' where
ever they could get to the polls. They
have demonstrated beyond all doubt
that they are overwhelmingly opposed to
the doctrines of Free Trade. They have
proved that they regard as an energy and
despoiler, every man who seeks to de-
stroy Protection. They have shown
that they will punish by crushing defeat
every politician who insults their intelli-
gence and assails their welfare by advo-
eating the Confederate measure. Mr..
Cleveland can bring back prosperity to
the Nation, activity to American indus
try and plenty to the homes of the mas
ses, by single sentence declaring that he
bows to the will of the people, and that
he will veto the Wilson bill if it shall
come before him. Will he do this? At
this eleventh hour will he heed the les
son which the peoples ballots have en-
forcedP Or will he persist in his policy
of ofiDhumanity and destruction, and 90
down into history laden with universal
detestation as brutal and selfish auto
crat, the foe of his country and the rob-
Der and oppressor of his fellow citizens?

towns are under martial control. The
patrol is kept up in order to prevent, II
possible, "a repetition Of the dastardly dy
Mantle outrage which took place near the
Eckhart mines yesterday. IL has been
pretty well known for some time that a
number of the strikers were supplied with
dynamite, and some Of this or from an
other source was used ON the house Of
Charles Lancaster, one Of the miners who
has stood by the company. Lancaster,
his wife and his sister were asleep in the
house mt the time, and their escape is al
most marvellous. The whole front Of the
house was shattered Tho explosion was
accepted by the miners as a warning Of
what would occur and many staid away
from work ON this account, although pro

five mines, only l25 men went to work.
