GORHAM.

Gorham, October lit has come to
be almost traditional that no class has
fairly entered upon its course in the Cor
ham Normal school until it has been
given its Initiation" by the IN embers Of
the upper Glasses. For this purpose, the
A. B and G classes invited the teachers
and students, together with few friends,
including the form teachers of the
school and those officially associated with
it's interests, to atte1d reception Satur-
day evening, October s, at Frederic Robbie
hall. Several of the young ladies rem.
dered very acceptable musical selections
and a general good time was the order of
the evening. Refreshments were served
in the spacious dining room of this most
delightful school home, The D elias s
voted their 'hazing'' a completes success
and the evening closed with good night
eerenade on the part Of the girls to the
boys of the school, who had evidently
taken no noteAof the fact that the hour
for departure had arrived.
The number in attendance at the Cor
ham Normal school is larger than at any
corresponding term in it's history. The
entering class has more members than
any class ever admitted, with the excep-
ton of the class entering when the school
was opened.

Palms at Kew

While acres of fertile soil are covered
with all the plants that can stand the
English climate, there are others from
more sunny climes that must have the
protection of glass and heat. The palm
house, which accommodates the ferns
and palms Of priceless value, is 1862 feet
long, 100 feet broad and &C feet high. 1t
is the largest and most elegant structure
of it's kind, fitted up with all the modern
inventions to make plant life strong
and vigorous. A spiral staircase con-
ducts the visitor to high room or plat
form, where all the exquisite greenery
and graceful forests of plants can be
viewed. The view is a glimpse of fairy
land-a veritable illusion of the senses
a midsummer nights dream.-George f.
Walsh, in January Lippincott's.

Carthy Is No Vag

S. j. Carthy, who has been in Jail for
several days, was tried by jury before
Judge Morrison yesterday on a charge Of
vagrancy and acquitted. Some of the
police officers claimed that Carthy was
a companion of known thieves, that he
had no visible means of existence, and
that he was frequently found wander
ing at late and unusual hours in the
streets, and in fact, that he was no
good. They made up for him a repu-
tation of a regular Fagin who acted as
fence and induced young evil-doers
to steal that he might benefit thereby.
When these officers had finished giving
their evidence Carthy's chances for con-
viction were excellent. But when he in
troduced witnesses in his own behalf he
was made out to be an Industrious man
who sought work diligently when he had
none and peddled wares as means of
subsistence. The jury disbelieved the
police or attached more credence to the
Carthy version of the case and he was
turned loose.
