TIE KlCEERS.

The ball given by the Wadsworth
Foot Ball Club ut Music Hall last Friday
evening was an unqualified success in
every way.
The ballroom was very comfortably
filled and another half dozen couples
would have made it appear too crowded.
The room was handsomely decorated
and never looked prettier, the boys hay
ing exercised excellent taste and good
judgement in their work.
The grand march was led by n. A.
Hummel and Mrs. Brooks McClane and
the figures were pretty. The order OF
dances came in a way to please all, and
happy, smiling faces showed the keen
enjoyment OF the participants.
The floor was under the direction of
N. A. Hummel, ably assisted by Vic
Geery, W. +. Brown, Vim. Shaber and
Harry Owen. The members Of the
Club wore the colors under which they
hope to Kick the pigskin to victory in
the future. 4r D.
Washeiul's Orchestra furnished the
musi1 and it was exceptionally good.
Mrs. j. II. McCulloch and Mrs. Henry
Krummes presided over the ice cream
booth and they have the thanks of the
Club for their kindness, as has also Mr..
McCulloch who gave his services during
the evening.
The voting contest for the most popu-
lar young lady was spirited and was won
by a large majority by Miss Mamie
Donelin.
Miss Donelin was also adjudged the
best lady waltzer present and gracefully
invited the guests present to partake OF
the cake which she won in this contest.
Will Short was adjudged the best
Walter among the gentlemen and con-
~sequently took the cake. III.
Jess Allen took charge OF the hat and
cloak room and Charlie Wightman and
Geo. Burton worked like beavers in dis
pensing lemonade and soda for the
numerous thirsty.
Jack Sheehan, Tom McKinstry, Frank
Goodwin and Captain McEchern kept
their eagle eyes open in the endeayor to
administer to the comfort and pleasure
of the guests and they succeeded.
The boys want and hereby do extend
thanks to all who helped them make the
affair the success that it was and
they will endeavor to merit all the ia
vors extended. az

The preliminary examination of Thos.
Hulkatt and Joseph Porter, charged with
an attempt to wreck the passenger train
last Thursday night was up before Judge
Linn yesterday. The trainmen were Elk
amined as to the character of the OBJ

on the road and the rate of speed at
which the train was running. It is
thought that the evidence thus far
against the two men is strong, as it will

The fullest and most reliable account Of
the Cuban instruction that has yet found
its way into periodical literature appears
in the April RevieaO of ReUiea0s from the
pen Of that veteran journalist and war
correspondent, Murat Halstead, who has
only recently returned from an extended
sojourn in Cuba. Mr.. Halstead's article
embodies much fresh aud important ma
terial of the greatest interest--for exam
pie, the proclamation made by Genera
Gomez in December last, General Wey-
ler's statement in reply 10 questions of
Mr. Halstead concerning Spanish policy
in Cuba, and specimens of the work of
the press censor, besides vast amount
of statistical data impossible to obtain ex.
cept by personal visitation and inquiry.
MIR. Halstead has had access 10 all the
sources OF trustworthy information on
both sides of the present contest, and has
utilized the knowledge thus gained with
the skill of the practiced writer OF current
history. His whole aim has been TO get
at the truth and present it impartially.
The portraits of Cuban leaders which &C.
company Mr.. Halstcad's article are all re-
productions of photographs or OF draw
ilgs made in the field from life. The por-
trait Of General Gomez, which serves as
the frontispiccc OF The magazine, is con
sidered the best ever published.

SHANGHAI, CHINA, Oct. B, ISvb

SHANGHAI, CHINA, Oct. b, 1895.
DEAR FRIENDS II am delighted TO re-
ceive the account of your work sent me
by your interchangeable secretary; you are
surely wide awake to the needs of the
hour 10 oriental lands.
am thankful you are interested in
China and the Bridgman Home School.
You are educating a girl, robust in
health, and strong in whatever abe under
takes. My predecessor spoke of her as
ga natural leader" quite agree with
her. Last Spring she became very much
interested in religion, and her school
teacher considered her fit candidate for
baptism, but her quick temper had led
her TO be disrespectful to the matron, and
she decided for herself that she ought to
wait awhile and show more consistency
before the younger children in her daily
life. One cannot help loving E. Tsung;
this is her weak point. She tries 80 hard
to control her temper, but it often gets
the better of her, and she is so penitent
and full of shame and grief, 1t is quite
pathetic. She is bright, CHEEKY and full
of fun, and ready to help any one she
can.
The last week has been a very import
ant time with the Chinese. A sort of re-
petition of China New Year. Debts are
cancelled, calls exchanged and among the
heather many devices employed ito
cheat the devil, " and much paper money
burned to please the ancestors. The
streets have presented gay appearance,
so many shops decorated with paper
flags, pyramids of incense sticks ready to
burn people promenading IN fine flowing
garments, &c.
The native schools were closed for two
days, the mission schools open as usual,
but the heather element conspicuous for
its absence.
We had wedding the other day in our
chapel. The hour was 10 o'clock. The
bride was ready before the time the
groom appeared at IL o'clock, and then
because his intermediary went after him.
1t is Chinese etiquette for the gentleman
TO appear Indifferent and hold back.
1t was lovely day, but VIC could not
say "happy the bride whom the sun
shines upon" because her face was hid
behind red silk veil. She was all in red
even her shoes. The tenacity with which
they cling 10 old customs is amusing.
You are beginning another season of
work. | congratulate you upon the priv
ilege of working with ard for the Lord,
and pray that his blessing may rest upon
you. Yours in Christian sympathy,
MARIETTA MELVIN,
Teacher in Bridgman Home.

The Morristown Jerseyman says that
Congressman Pitney is not only not a
candidate for District Delegate to the St.
Louis Convention, as stated in some of
our exchanges, but is insisting that the
offices should go to Warren and Hunter
don Counties. Morris had one Of the
delegates four years ago and also eight
years ago, and Sussex also had one four
years ago, SO the honor of representing
the District is conceded TO Warren and
Hunterdon.
