1.-The Cotton King"

There was diversity of opinion as to
the merits of this entertainment given in
the opera house last night Some We're
disappointed and others thought it really
fine show. The fact that the players were
again and again called before the curtain
would indicate that the audience as a
whole was highly appreciative.
The scene was in England and not in
the southern states as many had supposed
from the title of the play. The plot was
the same old story OF the honorable, up
right young man getting there, and the
villain getting left; the course of true love
did not run smoothly.
The scenery was good throughout, and
the factory scene in the fourth act was
especially fine. The acting was uniformly
good but not superior. James M. Brophy
as the Cotton King, j. Frank Burke as
James Shillinglow, and Oscar Eagle as
Richard Stockley took their parts with
especial credit
AS a whole the play was above the aver
age, and satisfactory entertainment.

ST. PATRICK'S DAY.

How the 18th Of March Was Celebrated in
Bellows FaIls-Mass at St. Peter's-Re-
marks by Rev. FIR. Holahan-Exercises at
Union Hall.
St. Patrick's day, the great national day
of Erin's isle, is dear to the heart of every
Irishman. Year after year it is celebrated
with increasing enthusiasm. Its celebra-
ton in Bellows Falls yesterday reflected
much credit on the local order of Hiber-
mans. All day the two beautiful flags, the
Stars and Stripes and the Irish flag, were
waving from their quarters in the Wilson
block.
Shortly after $50 o'clock in the morning
members of the order to the number of 10
formed on the square and stepping to the
music of the reorganized Bellows Falls
drum corps, Will Lowe, drum major,
marched to North Walpole and attended
pontifcal high mass at St. Peters. The
service was conducted by Fathers O'Neil,
Finnegan of Claremont and the priest at
Lebanon, n. H. FIR. O'Neil made the
address and dwelt at some length on the
origin of St. Patrick's day and its relation
to the early and subsequent history Of the
church. On request Of G. J. O'Neil, pres
ident, Rev. FIR. Holahan addressed a few
remarks to the members present. This
was very touching part of the mornings
exercise. The Reverend father has been a
great sufferer for several months, and al
thong unable to rise from his chair, he ex-
pressed in earnest, eloquent words, thoughts
that touched the hearts of all his hearers.
He referred to bothsthe flags present very
touchingly and urged his hearers, while en-
joying the blessings of American liberty
not to forget the patriotism and religious
zeal of St. Patrick. All were visibly moved
when the FIR. Holahan, stretching forth his
pale hands, asked each man present to
offer prayer to the blessed saint, that
God in his benign Providence might again
restore to him the use of his limbs that he
might continue the work to which his life
had been consecrated.
After mass the order marched through
the principal streets of North Walpole and
Bellows Falls under the direction Of G. j.
O'Neil, marshal, and w. j. Hayes and j.
j. O'Connor, assistants. The Hibernians
were the recipients Of many compliments
on the fine appearance they made in line.
All the members are athletic specimens Of
manhood and have no need of their beauti-
full regalia Of green and gold to make them
a fine appearing body Of men.
Last evening reception, dance and
supper was given in Union hall. The open
ing address was made by President G. j
O'Neil; remarks were also made by Frs
Reynolds and O'Neil and j. j. O'Connol
and poem recited by Edward Lawlor
recitation was given by E. A. Thompson
and vocal solo by j. E. Byrne
Refreshments were served in the hall anG
the dancing continued until 1.30o' o'clock.
The celebration was highly creditable te
the Hibernians and fitting recognition O.
