NORTH BELFAST. The Downs culvert is
completed, after an interruption to travel of
nearly four weeks. 1t was of necessity an
extensive piece of work. The old wall had
caved in to such an extent as TO require it to
be entirely rebuilt Surveyor Mavhew and
his workmen deserve credit for the thorough
manner in which they have done their work.

| A TIN WEDDING. Mr.. and Mrs. W Fl
| Qumby sent out cards last week for a re-
ception at their home, 25 Court street, Mon
day evening, Oct. 5th, from s to IL. 1t was
| the 10th anniversary of their marriage, and
| floral offerings and more substantial gifts
| from friends and relatives marked the event.
| Our society reporter was unfortunately alb
| sent from the city the night of the reception
| and the yachting reporter was detailed for
the occasion. His report follows: Soon after
8 o'clock last Monday evening scores of peo-
| pie under full sail were headed for % Court
/ street. Arriving at the port of destination,
! the officer of the deck, very polite young
/ lady, ordered them aioft-ladies to starboard,
/ gentlemen to port. After squarng the yards
and setting colors the guests went below to
! tue captains cabin where MIR. and Mrs. w. H.
| Quimby gave them cordial welcome Dr.
and Mrs. b. B. Foster the latter sister of
Mrs. Quimby, assisted in receiving. The dec
orations throughout We're both tasteful and
| beautiful and there was a profusion of flow
| ers, IN which American Beauty roses We're
conspicuous. American. beauties, whether
roses or women, are second to none, and both
We're represented. This is about as the society
reporter would have expressed it, but the
writer would say that there was running
rigging of smilax and blocks of roses. In
ad of piping all hands to grog at a stated
hour huge bowl of fruit punch, delicious
| but not an lnebrlatlng beverage, was served
to all who thirsted. The tide now set strong
y toward the mess room where instead of
the salt junk and hardtack which nauti-
cal writers tel! us the chief diet of those
who go down to the in ships, there
were appetizing salads, delicious ices,
cake, etc, served by most obliging steward
esses. During the evening Sanborn's Or
chestra furnished most enchanting music.
1t was the opinion of all who heard it that
that organization of skilled musicians fairly
outdld itself. Here we have dropped the
nautical strain again, and will say in con-
cluslon that the house was thronged all the
| evening and that the reception in all its fea-
lures a brilliant success Three gener-
ations of the family were present, Mrs.
Mary j. Noyes, the grandmother, Mr.. and
Mrs. j. II. Quimby, the father and mother
OF MIR. W. H. Quimby, and among the out
OF town guests We're Mr.. and Mrs. A. A.
Su ivan of Portland.
