REFLECTIONS OF A BACHELOR
(From the New York Press.)

When you dig into mans vanity
you touch the spot where his hatred
for you lies.
No woman likes to think that the
man she cares about would rather see
her happy and plain than pretty and
disconnected
Il seems ever so much more so to
say that a woman Is older than her
husband than to say a man is young
or than IS wife.

Memorial Service.


 A patriotic memorial service was held iu the Methodist Episcopal church last Sunday evening. The thunder shower just before the hour of service prevent ed large attendance, still about one- half of the seats were occupied. The interior of the church was srtistically decorated with flags, bunting, muskets and flowers. Members of the c. A. R. post and s. O. V. camp occupied seats reserved for them directly in front of the pulpit.
 The services commenced by singing Hymn 1889, My country 'tis of thee. |" The pastor. Rev. R. B. Coons, offered prayer and then read part of the second chapter of Paul's second epistle to Timothy. The choir sang Hymn 1097. 70 Lord, our fathers oft have told. ,, The pastor then delivered an impressive, patriotic and inspiring sermon, select ing his text from II Timothy, second chapter and third verse: "Thou there fore endure hardness as good soldier of Jesus Christ"
 At the close of the sermon the pastor offered prayer, the choir sang Hymn 576 Stand up, stand up, for Jesus. !" The benediction was pronounced and the audisnce dispersed, all feeling we'll repaid for their effort made to attend the services.

THE ROBBERY
Our Local Talent Gives a Good Pre- sentatiOn of a Pleasing Piece-Greene Captured the Audience.

Our Local Talent Gives a Good Pre-
 sentation et Pleasing Piece-Green
 Captured the Audience.
 The play, The Great Diamond Rob- bery," was presented Tuesday night at Town Hall for the benefit of Canaan Conclave, Improved Order of Hepta- sophs A large audience was present and the piece was admirably performed. Our local amateurs have been under the instruction of l.. L.. Greene. a we'll known actor of Providence, R. l., who played the light comedy part of " Peter Grump, lawyers clerk" and he of course carried off the largest share of the honors, firstly in the playing of his part and secondly in the results of his coaching of our amateurs, as some of the cast had never appeared dramatic ally before the public until Tuesday night.
 In describing the performance we will use terms understood by the audience and eur readers, and not mix up with juvenile leads, gsnteel heavies, low comedy. etc. as known to professionals.
 The hero of the play is "Julius Mon- trose." admirably portrayed by Clinton Barnes who knew his part and played it splendidly. Miss Lena Gardner did nicely in the part of Mary Marshall, !" the wrongly suspected young lady com panion of the wealthy Mrs. Montrose, which long and difficult part was most excellently done by Mrs. Frank Hitch cock. John Beckley was smooth and plausible ln the character of !" Lawyer Blsnd," the genteel rascal, and was heartily hated by the audience "Jim Brandon," the villianous thief, was played by Harvey Brizzie and he hand led the difficult part very satisfactorily.
 Aside from MT Greene the comedy hit of the show was Mrs Weston Barnes in the character of "Biddy Malone" she was simply great. Polly" the jolly maid, was portrayed in pleasing manner by Miss Jessie Beebe. Chas. Rodemeyer played the Dutchman true to life and dialect, and with Will Joyce -'the coon" - introduced song and dance specialties which won great ap- plause.
 Charley Dodge in the comedy bit of . decrepit western hotel keeper showed himself to be first rate character actor. Rob Peirce looked the part of " Sheriff Brown" and marched his williams of in a manner worthy of Lew. Rhoades Miss Belle Lorraine presided at the piano and executed the intsrludes and incidental music perfectly, which added greatly to the performance, as anyone who saw a rehearsal without music will testify.
 A social dance was enjoyed after the performance.

THE LIME COMBINE

Lime Burning Industry All Under One Head-Headquhrters Are at Canaan. Capital Stock S1 ,5OO ,OOO.
 After several months of trying, the dime trust" has been formed and the combine will be known as the Western New England Lime Company. It in- cludes all the lime industries of Con- necticut and Massach usetts excepting those at Lee and Cheshire. Ten plants are in the combination as follows: Follet Brothers of Adams, Hutchinson Brothers of New Lepox, the West Stock bridge Lime Go. of West Stock bridge, the Peirce & Freeman Oo., the Canaan Lime Co.,, Charles Barnes Sons, and Garfield Brothers of North Canaan, O E Griffin of New Milford, the Brook field Lime Go. of Brookfield, and John Todd of Bedding. The main offices of the concern will be at Canaan, Conn.
 The deal was engineered largely through the efforts of s. P. Williams, q we'll known business man of Waterbury, and Attorney J. H. Roraback of Canaan. The Now York law firm which is to have charge of the company's affairs is Reed. Simpson. Thatcher and Barnum, headed by ex-Speaker Thomas B. Reed. and the junior member is William M. Barnum, son of the late Senator Wm. H. Barnum of Lime Rock, Conn.
 The capital stock of the new concern is $1. 500, 900 which has nearly all bet n subscribed. One half of the stock is preferred and one-half common. Con- servative business men estimate that the company will be able to pay 10 per cent dividends.
 Business will be begun under the new organization about June 20. Rep resentatives of the combine state that it will not be the policy of the concern to raise the price of lime at the present at least.
