We send you program Of the Semi. Annual

pected TO be able TO get several seats, OUT
when we went up to the hall found large
crowd already there and good seats were at a
premium.
The Edwards Watkins orchestra made up
| of young ladies and young gentlemen, dis
coursed splendid music during the evening
to the great delight of the large audience
The address Of the president, Mr.. C; E.
Morris, was good and appropriate. The
declaimers did themselves great credit hav,
| ing their speeches we'll at com mmand, and
delivering them with grace and ease. We
expect much from some of them In the fu.
| ture. The Senior Grafton by Mr.. w W.Simpson
was well prepared and delivered with force
and effect.
The debate was one of the best the Euphe.
mian have had. The subject was thoroughly
entilated and the debate thoroughly enjoyed
| by all present. The decision was given to
| the negative and the fate Of the Democratic
party forever decided. The Society is now
sixty.two years old. being organized IN 1852
Among Its domain are some OF the prom!nent en- I
men In church and state throughout the
