S.-KeevtS American Dand
gave first class concert to small audi
ence in the Howe Opera House last week
Thursday evening. A crowded house is
what ought to have greeted this famous
band and enjoyed their music. Every
member Of the band is an artist and the
selections were all perfectly rendered.
Mr.. Church, the cornet soloist, is un-
doubtedly the best ever heard here.
"Gayest Manhattan" attracted a good
audience to the Howe Opera House Sat-
urday evening and all were greatly
pleased with the performance. The
singing by the chorus was excellent and
some of the sole work extra good. The
play is burlesque extravaganza and
there is fun of the first quality through
out the whole of it. There are many
beautiful costumes and some ridiculous
ones. Among the bright particular parts
was Gertie Reynolds, the American Cleo
de Merode, whose dancing ranks at the
head, Gus Pixley, the whistling tramp,
and the solo work of Kate Michelena.
the "Gayest Manhattan Nightingale, F"
and Miss Lewis.

the 91st year OF her age. Mrs. Hasetine
was the daughter Of Richard and Eliza
beth Peabody, and was born in Lyman,

Rev. David Goodall Congregational

tine has lived for the last 25 years. She
leaves grandchildren, great grandchildren
and one great great grandchild, and was
the oldest of FIVE generations of daugh-
ters. Mrs. Hasetne's bright hopeful
disposition and lifetime of extensive
reading, with a wonderfully retentive
memory, made her in late years, when
failing eyesight prevented much reading,
an interesting and delightful companion.
She was the Oldest member OF The 70 club
and not only herself enjoyed their meet
ings, but added much to their interest,
by repeating choice bits of literature
drawn from well stored memory.
"Time laid his hand upon her heart gently,
not shifting it,
But as harper lays his open palm upon his
harp to deaden its reverberations."

they will be put in condition for more
service. The main wall of the round
house is still standing and most OF it can
