DANFoRTH.
DR.. N. Danforth and wife OF Chicago
made a short visit last week among his
old friends in Barnard, where be was born
more than forty years ago.
He graduated from the Hanover Medi-
cal college and when quite young went
west to seek his fortune, locating In Chi
cago before the great fire. He grew up
with the new city, building a reputation
OF prominence second almost 10 none IN
the country.
He has been professor OF pathology IN
Rush Medical college and the same in the
Chicago Medical college, including pro-
fessor of clinical medicine, dean OF WON Z.
ans Medical college and professor OF
pathology in the same institution, physl-
clan at Wesley and St. Luke's hospitals,
consulting physician for Illinois Eye and
Ear Infirmary, also to Mary Thompson
and Silver Cross hospitals.
The doctor called to see his old friend,
Benjamin F. Cham berlin, who owns and
lives at the Danforth homestead, and
found a very sick man. He gave Ben
some encouragement, which we all hope
will prove benefit.
DR.. Danforth spent some weeks at the
seas shore at Nantucket and visited friends
in Buffalo, Dedham, Bellows Falls, Clare
mont and Royalton, returning this week
to Chicago.

silver Lake, Barnard.

We are sorry to learn that the strong
steam launch, Lucy G.. has gone into
Frank fuckers dry dock for the winter.
Her puff and merry whistle gladdened the
hearts of many cottagers and village
residents during the few hot months Just
past. Her gentlemanly commander made
himself exceedingly popular and we shall
miss his society. Lucy G. will be
thoroughly overhauled by Captain Tucker
and put in trim for 1901.
1t was interesting to see in town meet
ing the well -remem bered faces OF Lucian
Blackmer, c. k. Jacques and Prof. +. Nj.
Bowman. They we're representatives OF
the old Wing party and are now ardent
Republicans, watching the result with
ole. time interest. These men have kept
the faith and are now enjoying the fruits
OF continued prosperity. 1t was still
more interesting when the member elect,
after thanking the voters for his election,
asked as a personal favor that the house
be divided as to preference for I. ). sena-
tor, to see the scramble and desire to be
counted for Hon. w. w. Grout. Had the
general been present, it would have done
him good to see all the old soldiers and
the best farmers in Barnard lined up
ready to shout for the future senator.

NEW YEARS AT THE Y. VI. c. A.

The Ladies Auxiliary of the Young

nual New Years supper, and later in the
evening the boys re urned the compliment
by playing. for the amusement of several
hi ndrtd p op'e mother-hubbard game of
as et ball chat was eXcruciaingly funny
and was largely enjoyed by the speci a ,ors.
The supper lasted from $50 until $50

room of the association. Several hundred
invitations had been sent out and the ma
jori y.of the recipients must have accept
cd as the ladies and a corps of assistants
were kept as busy as could be from the

the lad es and the many efforts that are
made for their comfort and enjoyment.
The basket ball game that followed the
supper was by far one of the most orig
inal and amusing entertainments that has
been seen here for some time One has
only to imagine, if such thing be posi-
be, ten or twelve large, athletic boys,
some of them nearly six feet high, with
bull recks and iron biceps. arrayed in
all the wonderful array of womans attire
of many and varied hue and fully decked
out with yoke, ruffle, frills and stock,
not even the up-to-date, and ultra fash
ionabe train being omitted. and then
fancy how In the wild rush and scramble
for a very elusive ball they would handle
Their clinging skirts and with what grace
and dexterity--save the mark--they would
guide their trailing appendages in wild
rush across the border line for a ball out
of bounds.
There was no lack of vigor or dash about
the game on this account, though, and
more than one member of the "Girls' or
"Old Maids" as the case might be, was
forced to stop in the middle of the game
and make repairs. The most conspicu-
Gus characters on the floor were Mother
