spectators. Music was furnished by Bel

Early In the season a number of ladies
and gentlemen OF this city, Central Falls
and Providence organized a whist club.
and all through the season have had pleas
ant meets at the residences of the LADY
members. The final meeting OF the club
was held Tuesday evening at the Benedict
House parlors and truly happy occasion
II was. There was not one dull moment
from the start OF the evenings festivities
to the close, and the pleasant occasion
will long linger In the memory Of the
members.
The principal feature Of the evening was
the playing Of progressive whist, six tables
being arranged In the cosy parlors. Suit
able prizes were offered for the successful
contestants. The first prize for ladies' was
a Rogu and Gallct's toilet box, and u was
won by Miss Agnes M. Curran. Miss
Agnes Devereaux carried on second hon.
ors, and was awarded handsome and
complete stationary outfit for the writing
table.
J. p. Smith demonstrated that he was
the bet player among the gentlemen pres
ent and his alb lily was rewarded by the
comm tie, with a travelling case. The
second p-'ze a silver hat brush, was won
by J. II. O'Gars.

toria Lodge, Daughters OF Rebekah, was
celebrated Tuesday night, in Odd Fellows
Hall. Preparations have been going on
for some time by committee of arrange
ments for this event, and the success at
tending their efforts demonstrated that the
proper persons had been appointed upon
the committee. Every detail was attend
ed to, not the slightest neglect being
shown to any part of the program, and
the inevitable result was that the members
and their invited guests enjoyed pleas
ant evening listening to the well arranged
program.
Victoria Lodge, Daughters of Rebekah,
is composed of some of the most popular
people of this city, whose sole aim is to
advance good feeling and sociability among
the members. The meetings through
out the year, as a rule, are most entertain
ing, and for that very reason the meetings
Of the lodge are well attended. Superior
Lodge, the male branch of Rebekah Lodge,
were special guests of the evening, and re-
sponded to the invitation in goodly num-
bers. To say that they thoroughly en-
joyed the exercises OF the evening would
be mildly stating the truth, as, in common
with the other guests, they expressed their
appreciation of the splendid entertainment
gotten up for their pleasure.
The first part of the evening was given
up to business meeting, the guests of
the evening being attentive spectators of
the workings of the order At the con-
clusion of the business meeting the follow
ing attractive program Of selected solos,
both vocal and instrumental, and interest
ing remarks was given:
An nf g.
Crocker, who extended to the guest of the
evening hearty welcome and expressed
his pleasure at seeing such a large and
representative gathering of members and
their friends; short talk upon the doings
and workings of the lodges, concluding
with the wish that many more gatherings
OF like nature would be In store for those
present.

Young. The full board of State officers
were present and were interested specta-
tors during the exercises of the evening.
The remarks by the speakers of the even
ing were of very interesting nature, and
repeatedly called for hearty endorsement
from the audience.
The program of the exercises being COM
pleted the company enjoyed an elaborate
lunch, prepared expressly for this occa-
sion, and it can be safely said that this
part of the program received no slight
from those who gathered about the tables.
A social half hour of pleasant conversa-
tion concluded the evenings festivities,
the company departing, showering CRATE
| full thanks upon the executive ability of
| the committee, whose untiring work and
forethought made it possible to enjoy such
an agreeable evening.

SOMETHING TO KNOW,

1t may be worth something to
know that the very best medicine
for restoring the tired out nerv-
GUS system to healthy vigor is
Electric Bitters. This medicine
is purely vegetably, acts by
giAing tone to the nerve centres
in the stomach, gently stimulates
the Liver and Kidueys, and aids
these organs in throwing off i'm
purities in the blood. Electric
Bitters improves the appetite,
aids disgestion, and is pronoun-
ced by those who have tried it as
the very best blood purifier and
nerve tonic. Try it. Sold for
SOC or S1.00 per bottle at w. O.
Shows drug store.

A THOUGHT FOR PARENTS.

We should learn samething
from every incident in life. A
study of the large number of
cases which has been on the
criminal docket of our circuit
court for the past several terms
will present us with incidents
enough to convince us that a
large number of the boys of our
county are a dishonor to the
community and the parents who
gave them birth. 1t is safe to
say that more than half of the
past grand jury's time has been
taken up in investigating the
lawless acts Of boys who are per-
mitted by parents to 60 forth and
violate the law or if they object
they find themselves helpless.
They have given these boys their
own way until at sixteen or
seventeen they act in open de-
fiance to their parents. These
boys will never make good cit
izens. In many cases they will
bring their aged parents to pow
erty ard shame.
II parents would save them
selves of this,,disgrace and shame,
save their boys from being Grim
inals, they must read their Bitle
m ore and teach these boys more
about its holy principals. They
should teach these boys that
blessed in the man that walketh
not in the counsel Of the ungod-
ly," They should be taught TO
honor God, father and mother
anu tho holy Sabbath, The sad
dost comment upon the parents
Of this day is the unholy neglect
W lich they are guilty Of in train
ing their boys for right and
truth,

upon this point that Mr.. Wilson
dwelled. 1t is a fact that many
classes in Sunday schools answer
the questions Of the teachers by
looking on their lesson papers
and reading from them. This
should not be permitted and we
hope that the teachers of Sharp

are so taught that they will go
