"oId church" Union Service.

A commemorative service was held last
Sunday, June 23d, on the seventy seventh
anniversary of the conservation of Christ
church, Bethel, known as the "Old
Church, on the road TO Bethel. The
building, seldom used now, but once the
meeting place OF the people of the four
parishes of Royalton, Bethel, Randolph
and Randolph Center, had been cleaned
and put in excellent condition for the oc-
casion The people, some of whom in
their youth had attended the old church
regularly, assembled from miles around
and the door closed pews of the ancient
edifice were filled with an interested con-
gregation and in many minds recollee-
lions OF the past were revived. There
were at least one hundred and twenty
people present. The clergy robed in the
vestry cut off from one end OF the vesti-
bule at the front of the church and
marched up the side aisle TO the little
square chancel, which is rallied on three
sides. Morning Prayer and Litany were
said by Rev Homer White while the les
sons were read by Rev. Chas. II. Wells,
the rector of Bethel, who also preached
the sermon which was an excellent one
and appropriate TO the occasion. The
text was Ps. IS. I'D verse. taken from the
Prayer Book version OF the Psalms as
found in the Psalter. As preface to the
sermon Rev. Mr.. Wells read extracts from
reports Of visitations made by Bishop
Griswold, who was bishop of the Eastern
Diocese Of which Vermont was a part be-
fore she became an independent diocese
under Bishop Hopkins, her first bishop.
Ii appears from these reports that large
congregations greeted Bishop Griswold
and large classes were confirmed by him.
The people Of those days were better
church-goers than the people OF today and
the bishop was pleased with the cody
character which they displayed.
After the sermon Rev. Mr.. Wells pro-
ceeded with the communion service, as
sisted in the distribution Of the elements
BY Mr.. White The music was well rem
dered by mixed choir from the different
parishes. and the service altogether was
pleasant and satisfactory TO those who
were present.

King JoIIity. "

Last evening in Dubois q Gays hall
"King Jollityn in his royal robes reigned
supreme. For his majesty's enjoyment an
elaborate program OF dances, drills and
songs was presented in manner TO do
credit to Prof. Wales and to all the partie-
ipants
The music is bright and catchy and it
seems as impossible for the audience to
listen without enthusiasm as for the cho-
rus to lack interest.
The stage never looked prettier than
now. with the special scenery provided by
Prof Wales. The size of the stage does
not permit Of its most effective arrange
ment, but il is very handsome.
The iollity bellies presented the tirst and
one OF the most original dancing num-
bers. which like all the rest must be seen
to be appreciated.
The autumn girls came next. with a solo
by Miss Nellie Wyman, followed by a
dance in waltz time by ten young ladies.
The royal guards in elaborate plush
suits and glittering helmets, with Miss
Hattie Woehler as captain and sololst,
made fine appearance, as did the KING 5
guards. led by Pearl Rumrill.
Miss Lettie Bailey as folly queen, with
her eight-in- hand of maids in white and
red. proved an accomplished leader and
singer. In short, as the curtain went
down on the first act there was no lack OF
appreciation.

Perhaps the most catchy feature of the
entire entertainment is the part OF the only
1Hobo, taken by Ernest Waterman, son
OF Judge Waterman Of Brattleboro, who
arrived Tuesday. The 1Hobo's part with
Miss Nettye Robbins is particularly pleas
ing.
The beauty Of the scene IS wonderfully
enhanced by the colored lights of Prof.
