With all the numerous entertain
ments soon to be your privilege to at
tend, do not lose sight of the date of
the comic opera, The DR.. of Alcantara,
to be presented at Village Hall, March
29th, 1898. No pains or expense will
be- spared to make this the event of
the season. You are not privileged
many times to attend a musical treat
of this nature. The cast will be rep
resented by some of Bradford's best
talent. AS the opera consists of much
dialogue which is very comical, those
not pleased with the music will find
ample entertainment in such. The
costumes will be something elegant,
and the new scenery complete, will be
used for the first time. As the pro-
ceeds are for the benefit of the Village
Hall, let all make special effort to at
tend. Further particulars later.

the evening, Rev. Mr.. Webb and Rev.

patriotism and invincible integrity of
the martyred President under whose
banners the Boys in Blue Still boys in

,mnsical rendition by the choir. the
violin and piano duets by Mr.. Davis

Freitchie and Ben Bolt, by Mr.. E. E..
Mum in his best voice and manner,
added much to the enjoyment of the
evening, while the impersOnations of
Miss Edith Bruce Jones were highly
appreciated, the happy rendering of
her German dialect sele ction suggest
ing her possibilities in the solemn and
the pathetic. The OYSTER supper fol
lowed, handsomely served by the Sons

BosToN, MASS, Feb. 18th, 1898.
FRIEND HENRY Il have this day sent
you by. express prepaid, a small package
OF books for the library, in which you
will find Williams History of Vermont.
Found it in Philadelphia, the former
owner whose autograph you will notice
on the title page, was profess or of bot
any in the University of Pennsylvania.
In the parcel you will also findLen Per-
ley Poore's "Reminiscences of Sixty
Years." and several volumes of Charles
Carlton Coffin's writings, besides couple
of duplicate volumes of Dickens. In the
by-gone years in the Journal, how eagerly
we looked for "Perley's" letters from
Washington, and arlton's' graphic de-
scriptions of the battlefield, also in the
journal. For me the Coffin books have a
wonderful fascination. The youth or
adult who reads them carefully will not
be wanting in patriotism nor cease to be
champions of liberty and equal rights.
Yours very truly,

On next Tuesday, April 5, occurs

has been rather longer than usual,
but no great amount of interest has
thus far been shown, and, aside from
the hustling done by the nominees for
treasurer, not much activity has
been evinced by the different can
didates. Something may lie under
the surface, however, and perhaps the
whole affair may be proved to have
been a still hunt for votes.

THE OPAL.

There is an ancient legend that says
a woman's living heart was once i'm
prisoned in milk white stone, and
the throb of its passion and pain shone
through the half opaque surface aud
made it dart and flash and futter with
flame color and rose and violet and
golden tints. Sometimes it beat high
with hope and the surface was radient
with light; frequently sorrow oppress-
ed it, and its rays were fainter AMI
less glowing. There seems no more
beautiful or fitting association for the
lovely opal to have. 1t almost has life
in its center, and, no matter how small
the stone, if it be of pure origin, the
colors are as perfect and as varying
as in larger specimens.
