a Maccabee Multitude.

AS had been announced for some
days previous, the great Maccabee in
stallation and feast in Yale occurred
at Central Hall on Tuesday evening,
January 29th. 1t was a meeting of the
Yale Tent, KOTM, and the Peerless
Hive LOTM, and the installation was a
Joint one of the officers of both lodges.
A list of these officers was published
at the time of their election and need
not here be repeated.
The installing ceremonies for the
Tent was conducted by w. A. Caya-
nagh, Past Commander; and those for
the Hive, by Mrs. J. g. Holden, Senior
Past Commander. The ceremonies
were very beautiful and impressive,
and were observed by vast multitude
of Maccabees and their guests.
The feast was one which will long be
remembered in Yale. Rarely, if eyer,
has so large crowd been treated to II
free supper as was done on this oc-
casion. And how it was so satsfactori
ly accomplished in the dense crush of
people is mystery. But it was done
and grandly done by the good ladies
of Peerless Hive. There was a fear
that there might be shortage in the
provision line, but all such fears were
groundless. After these hundreds had
been filled TO repletion, there was
abundance left to have fed hundred
more.
The two long tables, extending the
length of Central Hall were most taste
fully arranged and decorated. Above
all they bore an abundance of good
things for the inner man. Around the
tables there came set after set of din
ers, until all were banqueted to their
utmost capacity. At about midnight
the vast crowd dispersed, carrying
home with them the recollection of a
pleasant occasion-and some oysters.

We Are All Going

To see cinderella in Flowerland"-
the Entertainment to be given on We'd
nesday evening, Feb. 9th, in Central
Hall by the teachers and pupils of the
Grammar and Primary departments of
our public schools. This is one of a Sc
ries of annual entertainments gotten
up by the teachers for the purpose of
procuring pin money to expend in the
adornment of the school rooms in ways
that don't come under the notice of the
district officers.
A visit to the school rooms any day,
and look around the walls at the nu-
merous historical and valuable engrav-
ings, nicely framed; the organs which
give rythme and add grace to the move
ments of the children in their exercis-
eS; beautiful desks, and many other
conveniences and helps, will convince
the most skeptical that our teachers
are not lacking in enterprise or interest
for the material welfare of the schools.
And all these extras have been bought
with funds collected at these entertain
ments.
This time the entertainment will con-
sist in q four-act operetta entitled
cinderella in Flowerland," in which
there are many beautiful and attractive
features. The participants are all pu-
pills in our schools. The respective
teachers concerned in this entertain
ment have spent many weary hours in
training the children for their several
parts when they might have been enjoy
ing their leisure; and it is but just and
fair that the parents and patrons of the
school should show their appreciation
by an overflow house.
Admission 10 cents: reserved seats
10 cents extra. Tickets on sale at the
usual place at p. m, Tuesday evening,
Feb. 5th-26 hours before the curtain
goes up.

The PaIdi PARTY,

One of the best places in this region
at which to have surprise is at Joseph
Paldis. This it seems is no secret to
the young people over that way who
for some weeks have been patiently
waiting for January 25th to arrive
when they could make a call upon
Zachariah Paldi, with due sympathy
and assistance upon his 2lst birthday.
They passed the evening in dancing,
playing games and other amusements,
and when the halfway notch. between
two days was reached, supper of oys-
ters was served to ALL 1t was indeed a
feast and right merry were the feasters.
The party continued until early morn,
which is the very best evidence that
time did not hang heavy on their hands.
Just as Old Sol began waking up the
world to a new day, the guests depart
ed, with many thanks to Joe and his
good wife for the pleasant time enjoy
ed 1t is quite evident that one of the
guests prizes his lady-love very highly.
On account of the icy roads he was So
licitous for her safety, and so escorted
her to the party with lantern. This
caused numerous jokes about his need
of a lantern on the pathway of love
when it runs smoothly.

Burns Banquet.

The Yale Burns Club held their
Annual Banquet at the Rapley House,
Friday evening, January 25th. The
night was quite favorable to the celebra
tiOn of the great Scottish poets birth,
it being only moderately cold. But it
was good grip weather and many who
on former anniversaries were always at
their places in the banquet hall, were
kept away by sickness of themselves or
their friends. The result was the COM
pany of some who have in other years
taken an active part, and greatly added
in the celebration, was a minus quantity.
But despite this and other adverse
causes some sixty persons sat down to
the banquet, and it was evident from
the hearty eating from those present
that none of them had the grip. The
supper was fine one, and the long
tables were loaded with rich and rare
foods, so delicately prepared and taste
fully arranged upon the snowy white
cloth, that Kings might envy the guests.
The well merited fame of Landlord
Paisley and wife for the superiority of
the Rapley House menu, did not suffer
any abatement by last Friday evenings
sample of culinary art.
Around the tables the guests ex-
changed social glee while the feast
went ON. 1t was merry meal; and at
it's close Toastmaster Harvey Drake
called to order and in few felicitOus
words called for responses to the theme
and sentiment of the hour.
Robert McGilp, of Forest, Ont, was
called and responded with a song. DR..
ID. Paterson, of Capac, in short speech
paid fine tribute TO Burns wife, as
Bonnie Jean. He was followed by
short speeches by the Toastmaster and
others. Mr.. Manson, of Harbor Beach,
responded with an od-time Scotch song
"Bonnie Doom" At late hour the
banquet was closed by the guests all
| joining in singing Aud Lang Syne and
receiving the benediction.
Aside from the supper. which is al
ways understood to be the prime factor
in all such occasions, the chief attrac-
tion on the program was a piper dressed
in kits, who for hours blew clarion
blasts of Old Country airs on the bag
pipes. 1t was a music that stirred the
! hearts of many present, as it reminded
them of Bonnie Scotland and the his
tory of that land, whose people have
played such an important part in the
worlds drama-and who have not yet
ceased to play. Mr.. McGilp is endowed
with both skill and endurance. Bag
pipes are no easy instruments upon
which to whistle, but he seemed equal
to the emergency, and for hours kept
the lads lively with his"kist o. whistles.
The other music on the evenings
program consisted in abundant songs
by the Yale Male Quartet. 1t would
be hard to say finer things in praise of
the boys than we have often said; yet
all the good sayings combined are not
equal to our present need; and so we'll
just swing our hat and hurrah for the
finest Quartet in the Thumb.

ASSIGNMENT IN BANKRUPTCY
John Windsor, Of Brown City,
Files Petition In Judge
Swans Court.

On Tuesday of this week John Wind
sor, long a leading merchant of Brown
City, filed petition for discharge in
bankruptcy proceedings.
We learn that at the time that John
Regan, Treasurer of Maple Valley
Township, absconded some years ago,
he not only defrauded the town but
many Of his friends.
Among these Mr.. Windsor had en-
dorsed his notes for a large amount
and after Regan's default he was COM
PEELED to pay these notes.
During the hard times of about seven
years ago he also lost heavily by way
of other endorsed papers and the ina
bility to collect accounts, losing thous-
ands of dollars by this means.
We are informed that because of
these failures he was compelled to bor-
row money from time to time and the
accumulation of interest and losses has
at last made it impossible to meet his
obligations.
The total of liabilities foot up in the
neighborhood of $4,000 while the stock
and other assets will amount to about
$4,000. Harvey Tappan of this place,
and Avery Bros. a. Walsh, of Port HUI
ron, represent Mr.. Windsor in the pro-
ceedinpS
