Russell II. Conwell.

On Monday evening next the st. Johns
bury public will once more have the pleas
ure of listening to that peerless orator,
Rev. Russell H. Conwell. 1t is altogether
unnecessary to advertise lecture by
this most brilliant and eloquent speaker.
The mere mention of his name in this
or any other city or town where high
class entertainments are given, is sufici-
ent to ensure a crowded house. 1t can
not be proved beyond dispute, but care
ful investigation reveals the strong
probability that Russell H. Conwell has
addressed more people than any other
man living. He has been on the lecture
platform thirty.seven years, and aver
aged two hundred lectures year, besides
preaching to the thousands who throng
his church, and addressing the largest
conventions that assemble in America.
He prepared fifteen popular lectures be-
fore he was thirty years old.
Mr.. Conwell travels over the greater
part Of the United States every year, but
is seldom absent from his pulpit on Sun
day. He frequently leaves Philadelphia
at midnight, ter wearing day at the
Temple, and whenever possible is back
for the Friday evening prayer meeting.
Tic, 2ts for this lecture are now on sale
at Binghams drug store. In response to
popular demand the committee have gen
erously reduced the price OF tickets for
this lecture to 25, 35 and so cents, SO
that none who wish to attend need be
disappointed. The correct date for the
lecture is Monday evening, Jan. 18th.

Is Judge Bates to ReturnP

John E. Harris is writing a series of
Washington letters to the Morrisville
Messenger, and in his last weeks cores
pondence contains this reference to Judge
Bates and Judge Ide.
81 have it on the best of authority that
Judge Bates and family are coming home
from those isles of the blessed, otherwise
the Philippines, and when they arrive at
St. Tohnsbury all hades cannot again
disconnect them from that hallowed
spot. | don't think Commissioner Ide is
as happy as he might be if he was in
heaven, but he will probably grin and
bearit. Everybody's friend Stone is now
superintendent of schools, so to speak,
in Manila and may be able to bear up
under it awhile. Well, such is life in low
latitudes."
Rumors that Judge Bates is to return
have been current ever since he first ar.
rived at Manila, but in the very recent
letter from him which we publish in this
issue, there is nothing to indicate that it
is his intention to return. Everyone
hopes he will come back sometime how
ever, and when he does hearty welcome
awaits him.
