The death of Mrs. John Dohrman,
of Lynn, mentioned last week, was
particularly sad. She was bride of
only two weeks and although not in
the best of health for some time, death
was entirely unexpected and double
blow to the parents Mr.. and Mrs. o.
Dudley, as only few short weeks since
their son Thomas was brought home a
corpse from the lumber woods. The
relatives have the profoundest sympa-
thy of all.
The Ladies' Benevolent Society of
the Presbyterian church have had
quite prosperous year. The society
has held meetings as often as twice a
month during the year 1898, and some
of these gatherings have been social
feasts for both mind and body. The
income of the society for the year has
been $2l6, which sum does not include
the income from the entertainments
given by Junior workers. There is
about $3.50 yet remaining in the treas
ury for future needs and work.
Herbert l.. Cope made his second
appearance before a Yale audience
last Friday evening, at the NJ. K. church.
Mr.. Cope is an able entertainer and
his rendition of many selections was
fine. His program running from the
ridiculous to the more pathetic, was
varied enough so that whatever ones
taste might be they were sure to find
something to their liking. We hope
this is not the last appearance of Mr..
Cope in our village and bespeak for
him much larger audience the next
time.
The average man if asked what is
the most important crop in the world
would unhesitatingly say, wheat"
This is true in the United States, but
far from the case in the world as
whole. The first place must be given
the potato. Of all the staple crops of
the world the potato takes the first
place, the annual crop being more than
1000, 900, 600 bushels, against 2 $500, 900.
600 bushels of wheat and $500, 600, 900
bushels of corn. OF the total potato
crop Europe produces fully seven
eighths.
The family of +. j. Gepford, of De-
troit, known to our readers, came near
meeting a terrible death by fire short
time since. Mr.. Gepford coming home
at midnight from his work, found his
house on fire and family asleep up
stairs. They were rescued with diff
Guilty and the fire department did ex-
cellent service in saying the house.
The fire started from the coal stove in
the sitting room. The damage amount
ed to over three hundred dollars. We
received these items in letter from
Mr.. Gepford on Wednesday, Jan. 3.
When man has been a resident of
q town at one time and minister of
the people at that, an interest is always
taken in his after life by the citizens
generally. Rev. j. w. Gray will be
remembered as pastor Of the NJ. p.
church here some fourteen years since,
n remarkably clever and promising
young man. In these after years he
has made himself famous, and we will
all wish to hear him in his grand lecture
"Then, Now and Hereafter" which he
will deliver in the NJ. p. church on
Wednesday evening, January IL, 1899.
