A few nights since as officer George
Town was about retiring for the
night, three young fellows appeared
and asked that they be allowed the
happy privilege of taking rooms at
Hotel de corporation, for the night.
After some hesitation he went over
and locked them up. In the morning
he let them out and they started off
without even thanking their bene-
factor, which riled George, who told
them to get out of town in twenty
minutes or they would go to Rutland
as tramps. The next heard of them
was the fact that they were arrested
at Hardwick, being escaping inmates
Of a Maine Reform school. One of
the three,had a foot badly crushed
by the cars at Hardwick.
A wedding somewhat out of the
usual run took place at The Randall
a few evenings since. Shortly after
the arrival of the mail train from the
east a young woman went to the no.
tel and up to the parlor Very soon
two gentlemen appeared, the hack
parlor taken as the scene of action,
two witnesses were called in, and one
of the two men performed a ceremony
which made the other and the young
woman man and wife. The supposed
clergyman Immediately disappeared
and was seen no more, the couple re-
tired with no supper, and were called
up for the 4:30 a. m. train and de-
parted with nothing for breakfast.
Daniel Hogan and wife, Gorham,"
was noted on the hotel register.
The Universalist vestry was opened
for the first circle last Thursday. A
large number were present to enjoy
the commodious apartments. Every
thing seems to be arranged with due
consideration for comfort and con-
venience. The ladies wish to thank
all who have contributed towards
furnishing the vestry, but would es-
pecially mention the generous gift of
money from A. H. Copley of Boston,
and silver ware from Mrs. Hattie
Thompson Guyer Of Hyannis, which
shows that absent friends are not
forgetful. On Thursday, Nov. 18th,
the ladies will serve their annual sup
per, to consist of clam chowder made
from fresh CLAIMS, supplemented by
cold meats, salads, and the usual
variety.
Lovett's Boston Stars open the
Library Lecture Course with a grand
concert on Thursday evening, Nov.
%, at town hall. This excellent COM
pany of entertainers, which is said to
be the best of it's kind in the Eastern
States, is composed of the following
artists: Miss Marion Osgood, a vio-
linist who has few equals Miss Clara
G. Warner, a ballad singer of the
first rank ; Miss Bertha Brewer, hui
mOrous and dramatic reader and ae-
companist, and Mr.. Frank G. Rpy-
nolds, the famous singing bumorist.
The entertainment given by them is
unexcelled, and should FIJI town hall
to it's utmost capacity, and thus help
in no small way the endowment of
that institution so near to the public
heart-the Centennial Library. The
sale of seats for the course will open
at Hall & Cheney's drug store next
week Friday, Nov. 16, at Z O'Clock
p. m and remember that the first to
arrive will have first choice of seats,
if it takes the whole board.
To put it as it possibly should be,
and as the genial gentleman himself
is wont to express it, Mrs. Hugh
Henry, Department President of the
Woman's Relief Corps of Vermont,
was in town last Thursday evening,
accompanied by her husband who is
a past Department Commander Of
the G. A. r. An organization CEN
tering at the Grand Army ham, gath
cred there that evening and passed a
very enjoyable social hour. Past De
partment Commander q. W. Doty
presided and introduced the speakers
with appropriate remarks. Mrs. Hen
ry spoke with reference to the Corps
here, speaking very highly of its ex-
cellently organized work and standing
among the Corps of the State. Past
Commander Henry made a few very
pleasing remarks, as did Rev. DR..
Booth, postmaster Earle, and Camp
Captain Don Sanders spoke for the
Sons of Veterans and A. A. Niles for
the Grand Army. The programme
was interspersed with music and re-
freshments were served. Hon. and
Mrs. Henry were entertained by Col.
and Mrs. G. W. Doty.
Mention was made last week of a
bill that Messrs. Warren & Summer
vile of Waterbury, the now resident
owners of Morrisville's present water
supply, out from whose bondage the
village corporation and it's inhabi
tants hope soon to be, had had
drawn up by their attorney and pre-
sented to the legislature. The bill
was undoubtedly ridiculous in what
it anticipated, if not altogether un
constitutional in the rights contem
plated. But Morrisville and hel
