ing last Thursday night, and there was an at
tendance that crowded the large social hall.

com posing the committee of arrangements,
had prepared programme which, though
short, was much appreciated. 1t was a song

whist tling solo, which was a wonderful per-
formance, one which it is said can be equaled
only by two men in the United States. The
dancing was enjoyed to the fullest under the
management of E. Mccarthy, assisted by D. NJ.

THE GAME BIRD OF FREEDOM.

Dame Iiberty's chicks are q vigorous brood,
And the little game bird OF freedom roosts high:
Little Greece spreads her wings in belligerent
mood,
While Gomez gives Spain a black eye.
The powers of Europe are down on their luck,
And the bloody Turk shakes in his shoe:
So freedoms game bird clucks satisfied cluck,
And the rooster crows cocK-doo dle-do!
Then hail to King George and his brave fighting
men,
And down with the base Turk In Cretei
Then hail TO the patriot Gomez again.
And down with Spans kingdom -ffete!
Hurrah for the spirit Of true Yankee pluck,
And three cheers for the red, white and blue;
For freedoms game bird chrps vigorous ciuck
And the rooster crows cock-doodle-do!

Weyler's return to Havana was pro badly
