The Rossini Concert.

The concert to be given here Aug.
10, by the Rossini quartet, is one to
interest all lovers of good music.
Although this is their first trip in this
part of Vermont, they have sung
with success in other parts of New
England.
Following are some press notices
from other states:-
Miss Hattie W. Clarke contributed "Mes-
sage d'Amour," by Gounod, in a very artistic
style exhibiting her abilities to great advan
mage. She displayed voice of much purity
of tone, and Der rendering of this difficult
number was excellent.-Boston Courier

lover, and his rendition of "My Pretty jane

The r. publican town committee

on Saturday evening of this week for
The purpose of putting in nomina-
ton "A Town preventative and JUS
tice of the Peace. In this connection
it is more than likely that there will
be some speech making. 1t seems to
be the unanimous wish of our voters
that our al e young tOwnsman, e..
NJ. Powers shall be nominated tOrep-
resent the town in the lower House
at Montpelier. His nomination
would mean a strong and popular
representation there and will be a
matter in which our voters will take
special interest, inasmuch as it seems
altoget her likely that he would be
selected as speaker of the House. We
make no states. they are not in use,
but if from time to time we have
made mention of probabilities in diff
fprent political connections, it has
been with a desire to simply indicate
the turn that opinion and preferences
are taking, as we see them. Three
weeks from yesterday, Morristown
will do credit to itself by electing
George NJ. Powers Representative to
the General Assembly of Vermont.

Another Ball Game.

The Danvilles came down here last
Friday and met the Morrisville No
Names in a very holly contested ball
game on a very hot afternoon on
j. G. Noyes' grounds on the old fair
ground hill The home team put up
an elegant game against great odds.
Holbrook, until the ninth inning, did
great work, striking out fifteen men.
At the close of the ninth inning he was
obliged to leave the box by reason of
the hard work of nine innings in a
boiling sun. At the close of that in
ming the score was a tie, nine runs
being the record on both sides. 1t
took ten innings to do the business
and it ended with the score 16 to 10
in favor of the Danviles. We do not
take occasion to kick, but it takes
the spice all out of a friendly rivalry
game of two towns when one team
like the Danvilles canvass the state
and bring to the ball field hired men
from other towns to do the job for
them.

The Republicans and Democrats as
well, of this town are to be congrat-
ulated upon the second opportunity
offered last Saturday evening to OBJ
tain good, sound, impartial informa-
ton upon the political issues of the
hour, and from so good an authority
as Congressman Powers, who is in
great demand throughout the state.
Judge Powers is so convincingly ar
gumentative and logical in bis re-
marks that no one can miss gaining
a new and better idea of the vital
points in hegreat political questions
that are under consideration through
out the length and breadth of the
land. With so much of solid argu-
ment, convincing figures and prov
ing facts, brought into an exhaustive
treatment of the questions, no mere
abstract of his address can do it
justice and we do not undertake it.
Another Republican rally is develop
ing for an early date.

Through 1ife's dark way, by errors rent,
oft vexed by cares, oft racked by sin,
We flee to Him from Heaven sent
For us, mortal life to win.
To g1orify His precious name
TO safeguard His undying love,
The church human minstrel came,
To sing hosannas to our Lord.
Each yearning soul may here find rest,
Eternal balm for gnawing grief,
BY Christ's life taught, by Him thrice blest,
We gain safe, a sure relief.
The church, through years of trial proved,
Mounts upward, onward to the skies.
BY its tense force and spirit moved,
Mankind from binding wrong doth rise.
Yet build we now for future need
This but the pledge of further toll,
We SOW, but gather not the seed,
Which ripens in eternal soil.

Sunday mornings sermon in town
hall, the present congregating place
Of the Congregationalists, was pre-
sented by Rev. Delmer E Croft of
Groton, N. Y, who took for his text,
Phil. As and in connection with
which, he said in part:-Let us think
of these things and learn what Apos-
tOlic meaning there may be for us in
these words, Whatsoever things are
true" This-is the highest type of
construction, the answer of all argu-
ments. Let us take account of more
things in life that are true. Whatso-
ever things are true are what we
want in all the realms of life. Here
the speaker went on to draw con-
trasts between the physical develop
ment of to-day and that of the
ancients. We boast of our science and
skill of to-day, but we have not a
skill that can build pyramids. We
want the truth in architecture, truth
in coloring, truth in physical strength
and christian development of the
athlete. Whatsoever things are true,
think on these hings.
"Whatsoever things are honest"
To pay ones debts is an honest act,
but not all, to be honest is to make
adequate return for all our benefits.
Have we made such returns to father,
to mother, to the community and to
God? Are you public spirited, are
you making a return of an honest
citizenship to community, to state
and to your country?
"Whatsoever things are Just" JUS
tice means the right, the assertion OF
ones strength to others, that the
weak may be made strong. 1t in
wolves justice to the negro race, JUS
tice to suffering Armenia, justice to
struggling Cuba. Let your man
hood and womanhood assert itself in
this sort of practical religion.
"Whatsoever things are pure" De.
velop the nature that is pure, strive
for pure community, pure streets
pure water, pure air, aim to live a
pure manhood and womanhood, for
pure homes. Yes, how much there
may be of purity. Whatsoever
things are lovely" A lovely nature
a lovely christian character, have
lovely words, lovely acts, a lovely
disposition, cultivated in the bright
ness of Gods own love. "Whatso
ever things are of good report" Dc
not tend to magnify wrong more
than you magnify the good you see
Speak we'll of your community, glori
fly your institutions, stand by thu
country whose life has been bong hi
by the precious blood of thousands
II there be any virtue, if there be any
good in any of these things, think O
it, speak of it, proclaim it. Emulat,

received news from Madrid to the effect
that tomorrow morning at that city the
government viii make an announcement
asking for public subscriptions on a loan
OF $5OOOJ,0D0. While the minister said the
loan was not TO be made purposely for the
immediate purchases Of munitions and
equipments for war. yet it was probable
the bulk Of the money would be used to
defray expenses Of the conflict now going
on in Cuba. Minister de LONE has received
a telegram from an official source saying
that a private canvass has been made OF
bankers and brokers Of Madrid with the in
tention of finding out how much they would
subscribe and that so far different finan-
ciers have promised to take up bonds
amounting to over S5OO0OO0O.
