Last Monday a skiff load of colored
people from Mississippi came over to
do their trading and to purchase
Christmas things for themselves and
children. They had bought great
deal, aud the men no doubt imbibed
too freely in whisky. They started
home ir the night with happy
thoughts Of Christmas day, and had
/ reached the bank OH the other side,
when one of the men on getting out of
the skiff turned it over, and man and
woman were drowned. On account
of the night being dark no assistance
could be rendered them. Where they
were drowned there was very little
current, aud on Wednesday, Green
Thomas, a colored man living in town,
went over the river and in short
while recovered the bodies.
The drowning Of these two people
was nothing but carelessness, caused
by drunken man.

One of the happy incidents of the
Xmas just past was the Christmas tree
at the Opera House last Christmas eve.
The tree was given principally through
the liberalily of Mr.. j. w. Dunn, who
bore large proportion of the expense
of getting il up. He was assisted by
his wife and some of the ladies of the
Methodist Church, and the successful
manner in which everything passed
off is commendation enough for their
interest 10 the children, and in trying
to make glad their hearts. The
Christmas tree looked beautiful when
all the candles were lit aud the toys
and fruits showed off TO such au advan-
tage. Presents were on the tree for
almost every child in town, and the
presents were not confined to any par
ticular church, but children of all the
churches were remembered. Our
friend jim Dunn deserves the thanks
of the community for bis beneficence,
and we join bis many friends in wish
ing him happy new year and term
of one hundred years in the sheriff7s
office from the dawn of the Goth cen
tury.

THE WALDAUER co.


Last Wednesday evening the ladies
of the Episcopal Church gave their
annual Christmas tree TO the Sunday
School children. The tree was beauti-
fully decorated and it looked nice with
the many wax candles lighted and the
dolls and other toys scattered over
the large tree. AS each toy was taken
down and the name of the child called
out who was to receive it, ii did ones
heart good to see the sweet smile and
Joy that lit up their faces The best
part of the Christmas tree was purse
of $61.50 for Rev. Mr. Boberg, the be-
loved rector, who was taken complete
ly by surprise, the good ladies keeping
it a secret, aud be bad no idea of such
handsome aud substantial gift.
The ladies of the Episcopal Church
are to be congratulated upon the sue
cessful manner in which the Christ
mas tree was arranged aud the pro-
gramme carried out.

Christmas services at the Episcopal
Church were very fine and the church
beautifully decorated with pot plants,
flowers aud evergrecns. The solos
rendered by Miss Joe May Egelly,
Mrs. J. S. Guenard and MIR. Frank
Byerley were sweet and melodious
Miss Joe May Egelly never sang more
sweetly, aud the young lady has by far
the finest voice in our town. Rev. Mr.
Boberg delivered an unusually excel
lent sermon, and the large congrega
ton appreciated it by the close atten
tion given him.

DIR. F. r. Bernard reported case of

tionary measures should be taken
Immediately TO cause a general vacci-
nation. The disease is more than
liable to spread over the entire par
ish. There is several cases in the
upper end of the parish, and the one
on Way-a- Way, with the chance of
more. 1t is we'll known that small
pox is very contagious disease, and

mediately in the way of compulsory
