Lakewood Notes.

Mrs. S. T. Haines of Pttsheld Is the
guest of Mrs. F. w. Briggs at her cottage.
James r. Carey of Haverhlll, Socialist
crater, gave an address on Sunday after
noon.
Next Sunday another excursion is to
be run to this popular resort from
Waterville, accompanied by Halls
Military band, which will give frequent
concerts throughout the afternoon.
Border Land" the play at the thea
ter, this week, is Of the comedy style
and presents many scenes that are ex-
cruciatingly funny. The negro imper-
sonatlon of Mr.. Bean, like all the char
acters assumed by that gentleman, Is OF
high order, and Miss Rice adds fresh
laurels to those already won as a SOU
brette. The other characters are In the
usual good hands and finished per-
Torrance Is the result.
Mr.. and Mrs. Asa Lawrence, Mr.. and
Mrs. r. F, WEIGH of Madison enjoyed
very pleasant trip to Lakewood last
week when they were guests of Mr. and
Mrs. Wallace Nash, In their nice cottage.
After they arrived at the cottage Mr..
Nash proposed fish for breakfast the
next morning and being an expert fish
erman he soon landed several fine bass
which were served and enjoyed at the
morning meal. Another source of en-
ioyment was a visit to the theater.
So successful was the production Of
Mr.. Neil Twomey's new play Harvest
Days" that the management of Lake
wood have prevailed upon him to produce
another one of his efforts and In conse-
quence thereof the popular organization
at the Lake will present for the coming
week 1.-THE Postmaster's Daughter" AS
In the case of "Harvest Days" this Is
the first presentation on any stage and
from the way the rehearsals are going 1t
is safe to predict that 1t will achieve a
great success, which is to be hoped as
Mr.. Twomey is one Of the most capable
actors, brilliant writer and socially one
of the finest gentlemen that it has ever
been our pleasure to meet. The play is
on the order of "The Old Homestead"
and "Way Down East" with which all the
readers of the REPORTER are familiar and
relates an interesting love story. Mise
Rice In the title part will have unlimited
opportunities. You will laugh with her
and sympathlze with her. Without
question it is the strongest part Miss
Rice has had here. Mr.. Twomey will be
the New York chap who won her from
Jud the latter played by Mr.. Hilton.
Miss Winter will be Fannie Hodge, the
village gossip, and Mr.. McCord will be
Hez Carter, the love making RUDE. The
rest of the characters will be played by
the popular members and they are all
working hard to make the piece terrific
success. Monday night 1t should be
greeted by large audience to see the
initial performance and to help the actors
and actresses on in their work. Nothing
pleases them 30 well as to work to
large audience.

High Mass of Requiem.

AT St. Mays Church, Tuesday morn
ing, the impressive service OF the solemn
mass of requiem in memory of the late
Pope Leo Mi, was celebrated. The
interest In the service was attested by
an exceptionally large audience In which
was generous percentage of Protes-
tants. The members Of Court St. An
tome de Padoue, Catholic Order Of For
esters, to the number of about eighty,
were present in body and assisted In
the service.
The decorations were appropriate and
elaborate, the papal colors, yellow and
white, and the streamers Of black bunt.
ing being mainly in evidence. The en-
trance to the church was draped in
mourning, the papal crest and the like
ness of the Pope being placed just above
the door The catafalque, which stood
in front of the altar, was lighted with
some over 200 candles.
The mass was sung by Rev. 0 p.
Lacrolx, assisted by Rev. FIR. Charter,
Prof. of Theology at Three Rivers Col
lege, Three Rivers, Quebec, aud Rev.
FIR. Cervais of Waterville. The requiem
mass was also sung in parts by st.
Mary's choir, the soloists, Mrs. George
Vgue and Mrs a. o. Robert, rendering
"Are we forgotten when we're dead?"
and "Nearer, My God to Thee" most
effectively. FIR. a. 0. Lacroix OBLIGATED
as director of the choir.
Two sermons were preached, the first
by Rev. FIR. Charter in French and the
second by Rev. FIR. Cervais in English.
Both were eloquent tributes to the
character and life Of the dead pontiff
The service was about two hours in
length.

Laborers' Strike.

Nine men employed by Street Com
missioner George II. Webb quit work,
Monday, by reason of Mr.. Webb's re-
fusal to discharge a non.unlon employe,
Bert Daggett. The strikers are men,
bers Of the Laborers' Protective Union,
and the request for Daggett's discharge
was made by a committee of their num-
Der. Further than their aversion to
working with men who are not members
of the union, the men have stated no
grievance, and make no complaint as to
wages. They were receiving 81 80 for
nine-hour day.
The difficulty has not been adjusted
thus far, and there seems to be slight
prospect of an immediate settlement
Mr.. Daggett is a capable and reliable
workmen, but has refused to enter the
union, which is the sole cause OF the
action taken by the men.

about August ID h for a visit to Wy

part owner. OF this property the Vest
ern Trade Journal says;
Under these conditions 1t is plain to
be seen that the Wyo. Queen Mining
Company Is safe investment. We feel
that we can cheerfully and conscien-
tiously recommend this company as a
safe and permanent investment, and the
investors, in short time, will thank us
for the advice we now give them to get
interested In this valuable property. Il
Is bound to be one of the best mines In
the United States and 1t won't be but a
short time before there will be none OF
the stock for sale at any price. As
quick as development reaches the ore 1t
will be In a position to ship and the mine
will pay its own expenses as we'll as
large dividends to its shareholders. In
short, as such propositions go, we are
pleased to say that we have not, during
our entire life Of publication, investi-
gated more promising or more worthy
company.
