Mrs. A. j. Holley was in Claremont ON
Christmas day and gave an exhibit of dec
grated china in the parlors Of the Hotel
Claremont. The fine specimens shown
created so favorable an impression that
Mrs. Holley has been asked to instruct a
class in the art. She will go to Clare
mont each Tuesday for that purpose.
The baililfs earnestly request that all
persons having bills against the corpora
ton contracted at any time prior to Janu-
airy /, 1896, shall present them at once
and certainly before next Saturday. And
also that all persons having money in their
hands belonging to the corporation or who
are owing the corporation shall settle up
on or before that time.

''Some two years ago tle Bellows Falls
female minstrel club ravaged and devas-
tated that section of the state during the
amusement season, and word comes that
the combination is once again to take road.
The company is composed of ladies belong
ing to the first families, and they are
accused of being way-up artists, too.
Steer 'em up this way, Brer Belknap."
We decline to do anything OF the sort.
If ST. Johnsbury hasn't enough public
spirited ladies to make it interesting for
the bald-headed row during the entertain

town must abide their hard fate
