at meeting held in the council room.

Gamble was chosen president; Henry

will be largely increased. Meetings are
held every Wednesday evening.
The .'New Lippincett' Magazine for
November is a sterling good number of
a periodical that is growing better each
month of its New existence. The COM
plete novel feature has been maintained
with never-failing interest, as witness
"Madame Noel" by George H. Picard,
in the present issue. This is story of
Longfellow's "Acadia," where the simple
folk live an idyllic life surrounded by
the big woods. Mr.. Picard's creations
are living people full Of such passions
as move us all, only here intensified by
the remoteness and loveliness of the
background. The story is Of the loves
and! hates of four young people who
compose two houses,-one priests the
other an English clergyman's. 1t is
touching and lively by turns and sweet
always. Not in many days has story
been written that clings so to the men,
ory.
Hans Hanson will be at the opera
house Sunday, October %. Hans Hans
son is an American comedy drama. The
principle character represents young
Swede lately arrived in America-a big
hearted, whole sonled, honest fellow, al.
ways ready to assist the depressed. The
fun lies IN his endeavor to speak the En-
gllsh language and the various comical
situations that arise during the action of
the play. At times the audience is held
spell-5ound by the tender pathos that
pervades the piece, aud the next moment
convulsed with laughter. Jas. T. Nc
Alpin, who has been seen as "Ole Olson''
through this country, has found in Hans
Hanson an ideal Swedish play, giving
him all possible opportunities for the
display Of his peculiar talent, both as a
comedian singer and warbler. His sup
porting company, seventeen stroug, is
m ade up of the best talent in the dra
matte and vaudeville lines, with solo
band and orchestra.
One of the most pleasant social func
tions which we have ever attended was
that given by the ladies of the Eastern
Star at Masonic hall Monday evening.
The beautiful lodge room was set with
tables tastefully decorated with pro-
fusion of natural flowers ana placed in
readiness fol, the serving of the bounti-
full collation. to come later in the even
ing, while the spacious dining hall in
connection had been cleared and with
waxed floor converted into a dance hall
for the accommodation of such of the
guests as might desire to indulge in that
rhythmic amusement. Fully $50 ladies
and gentlemen were present and each
and every one seemed to enjoy them
selves to the limit. The music for dane
ing was enhancing and the entire man.
agement of the affair was the best ever.
Luncheon was served at about II o'clock
and was most elaborate affair
and when the party dispersed at about
one o'clock it did not require a consti-
tutlonal amendment to bear witness to
the fact that all had enjoyed themselves
most heartily, the only criticism heard
being that such happenstances did not
