The Pythian benefit concert OF last

and Shaw's orehestras. The ladies'
quartette was made up OF Misses Mary
McArdle, Gertrude MeArdle, Wheeler
and Staples. The male quartette, COM
posed OF Messrs. Dunn, Howe, Briggs
Ssnd Hall, gave two selections. Solos
were given by Mrs. Bradbury and Miss
Staples of Norway. Mr.. G. I. Marble
OF Bridgton, the reader, was enthus-
iastically received, and his selections
proved so acceptable that he was several
times recalled. There was large house,
and Hsmlin Lodge must have realized a
good net sum.
