The Elmira Star says of the Dor
mond-Fuller Co., which will open a
weeks engagement in the Barre opera
house next Monday night: "The class
of plays presented by this company is
far different from the usual run of re-
pertoirc shows playing at popular pri-
ces. 1t is in fact a class of plays usu-
ally presented by one-night stand COM
panles and at prices far beyond the 10.
20 and 80 cent range. The repertoire
OF this company, embracing such plays
as lngomar, Virginins, The Three Mus.
keteers, The Marble Heart, The Play
en- All a Mistake, ETC., are plays usu-
ally presented at high prices"
Rich fun without tinge of vulgar
ity; sweet singing of the very latest
songs of the day; graceful dancing of
the newest steps of the terpsichorean
masters; homely humor; good story
well told; rare comedians; beautiful
girls in fetching costumes; these are
some of the meritorious attributes Of
the rollicking farce comedy, "Mul.
doon's Picnic" and which have made
it one of the most popular stage pro.
auctions of the past two years. The
company is an exceptionally strong one |
and includes among it's numerous ar.
lists such we'll known persons as Geo.
II. Adams, Rosens Cooke, Lewis Far.
rell, W. j. Gale, Eddie Gigure, Tbos
Sedgwick, A. Newman and Little
lnez Kaufman; with such popular &C.
'ors in such a bang up play nothing
'ut fun, pure and wholesome, can be
next Saturday afternoon and
'venlng, Feb. 18th, when they occupy
he stage of the Barre opera house.

VALENTINE Bazaar
Closes Thursday Evening at East
Barre.

1uc dlcLUluc baA"i O'
two evenings entertainment at the
opera house Thursday evening. Inc
affair was a most pleasant one and en-
joyed by all who participated in the
same. The literary and musical pro-
gramme of each evening was carried
on with much credit to those who
took part. The several booths were
prettily decorated and each ala
it's share of business. The post
office was the attraction of each even
ing, and manya young lady turned
away with a blush and a smile as she
read her letters as well did the young
men.
At the conclusion Thursday evening
the contestants for the different prizes
were arranged, and the prizes awarded
as the committee who was impartial
in every detail decided. A prize OF a
silver cup was awarded little Mildred
Grearson daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.
Warren Grearson, as it was decided
by the number of votes cast in her
favor that she was the handsomest
baby in the contest.
The handsomest lady in the con-
test as the number of votes indicated,
was Miss .Maude Blanchard and she
was awarded the prize, handsome
flower stand.
The contest for the most popular
veteran was decided by the commit
tee in favor of Col. George Wise, who
carried off the prize of handsome
leather bill book.
The prize of handsome lamp was
awarded to Harlie Southwickf for be-
ing the homliest man in the contest.
Harlie is not SO homely as some 9TH
ers, but it was so decided and he
cheerfully accepted the prize with the
remark that he did not care as long
as he got the lamp.
The kodak, which was the prize to
be awarded the boy or girl securing
the most money by vote for the
Bazaar, and Ernest Hutchins won the
prize by good big majority, and car
ried his prize home with him much
elated.
The guessing on the number of pins
in a bottle of peculiar shape, was
Yankee puzzle in every sense of the
word. The numbers guessed run all the
way from $50 to 5000, but the actual
number was 1649 pins, Mrs. J. A.
Plestid guessing 1850 and being the
nearest won the prize of a handsome
quilt.
The grand coupon prize of an ele-
CANT chair was won by 1. w. Bates,
he holding the lucky coupon of 122,
which drew the prize.
The fancy table, which was laden
with beautiful as well as useful articles
were each sold at auction by VIC. Nye,
auctioneer, bringing in some instan-
ces good prices. This made the mer-
chants long for the mack possessed by
Mr.. Nye for selling goods. The whole
affair passed off quietly and satifacto-
rily. While in some instances more
money has been made it was gratify-
ing to feel that everybody was well
satisfied The committee in whose
care the affair rested extend to all out.
