PAYMENT OF GENIus

At a regent sale in London Defoe's Life and Strange, Surprising Adven- lures of Robinson Crusoe of York, Mar iner," and ''The Further Adventures of Robinson Crusoe," two volumes, of 17f9, in the original calf bandings, realized $1,5s5. If such a thing had happened in .Defoe's own time it is probable that the gifted romancer would have ended his days in madhouse. Such incidents are the irony of fate. Every other day one reads of a Poe manuscript having been sold at a large price. And then one remembers Poe's miserable life and i'll paid returns. Shakespeare, a pros porous dramatist, considering his time, would gladly have sold not only the manuscript copy but dramatic rights to Hamlet" for scarcely a larger sum than that given above. It is safe to say that the Avon bard, good business man as he was, did not receive from all his plays what modern popular" novelist gains from a single book with it's dranl- attic rights. It looks rather unjust, but Shakespeare still lives while the novel; ist sees his reputation fiickering before his eyes. It is doubtful whether, taking all things into consideration, MT! Shakespeare would care to change places with M.---; you may fill 1t your own blank.-Current Literature.

Sixty-Seventh Birthday Of Second
Congregational Church.
CHURCH STILL THRIVING
Interesting Services Held Last Thursday Even
lng.-RspOrts Of Work and.
Growth Of Church.

The 9th anniversary of the organic
alton of the Second Congregational
church held last Thursday evening
was an interesting occasion. a large
proportion of the resident members Of
the church were present, and several
messages of good cheer from absent
ones were received.
The exercises began with recep-
ton in the audience room by Rev and
Mrs G. r. Seymour, assisted by some
of the officers of the church, a musical
program being rendered meanwhile by
Mrs L. H. Ross, Mrs Geo W. Reese
man and Edward c. Bennett. A
brief welcome by the pastor was fol-
lowed by reports. John NJ. Burt,
clerk, gave an abstract of the minutes
of the year. The membership now
stands at 463.
Since the May communion of last
year 20 members have been received
16 of these on confession of faith, but
thelosses by death and dismissal have
nearly equalled this number. The en-
tire amount of money raised was
s7,Os5. One thousand OF which was
appropriated to beneyolence. The
end of the financial year found the
society ou' of debt with a surplus.
The report of the statistical secre-
tary, Miss j. a, Valentine, was read

of nearly a dozen departments was
made vivid and interesting. The Wis
itors, the ladies aid society, the mems
club, the auxiliary aid and the Guide

have felt.
The collation. in the chapel accom-
panied with instrumental music by

was followed by speeches in the light
er vein under the leadership of Har-
rison 1. Norton. John S. Holden, L,
H. Ross, Miss Laura NJ. Rogers, Miss
Anna c. Park and w. B. Sheldon re-
spOnded.
The pastor at the close presented an
object lesson of church hospitality by
leading a boy of twelve years to the
front, giving in brief his Christian
history and asking that he be received
into fellowship. He was unanimous
ly accepted.

Trout Plenty but the Weather Not
of the Best.
STREAMS ARE TOO LOW.
Several Good Catches we're Made May bat
tenkill Furnishes Fine Sport
As Usual.

Considering the fact that May lst
when the trout fishing season in Yer
mont opened, was cold windy day,
more like March than May, the open
ing as far as the weather was con-
cerned was not very propitious. But
weather conditions did not prevent
catching fish.
The abnormal condition of the
streams at this season of the year and
the warm weather of the few days pre-
ceding Friday were of advantage 70
the habitues of the various streams,
and a number took their departure for
the brooks the day before so as to be
on hand the morning the season
opened. The change in the tempera-
ture during Thursday night did not
augur well for good days sport, but
those who staid out we're pretty well
repaid.
There we're several fair catches re-
ported during the first day, one OF
them by E. S. Harris, who brought
home in the afternoon among his tro-
phies one trout weighing a pound and
a half.
The fishermen who visited the Bat
tenkill were more than pleased with
their success, and il is stated that more
trout have been taken from that steam
this season than ever before in the
length of time.
A party composed of w. H. Brad
ford, DR. B. c. Jenney, Trenor Gregg,
and Charles Herrick Saturday after
noon brought back from the Batten-
kill 35 pounds Of trout, most of them
of more than ordinary size, one weigh
ing over two pounds. 1t was one Of
the finest lots of trout ever seen in this
village. Z. B. Patterson, who fished
in the same stream, brought home
some eight pounds.
The Glastonbury, Woodford and the
Dunnville streams we're visited by
many, some having good luck, others
not. The water in the mountain
streams was lower than at any time
last summer and remarkably low for
May l.
Harry Whitney went to the South
stream fishing the first of the week and
brought home a good catch OF trout.
Edward Whitney and Silas Harbour
we're in Woodford the early part Of the
week and succeeded in landing some
fine trout.
