 MOVING PICTURES Es.-THE LYMAN HOWE
 EXHIBITION AGAIN IN MONTPEL- FER, Vt.
 The Lyman Howe Moving Pictures always bespeak full house in Mont pelier and last night was no exception. An entirely new program was given. full of novelties and attractions to gratify the unsuitable demands of "Young America" who was out in full force; nor could many of the older ones resist the temptation to witness again so fine an exhibition as is invariably given by this company. With glimpses of far distant lands interspersed with amusing and instructive views of our own country, MI Howe makes a wide detour and brings his audience face to face with the wonderful, the amazing and the beautiful from all parts of the world. Last evenings entertainment included scenes from Africa and Cal ifornia, from the polar regions and the tropics; nor were the magic and mirth provoking wanting, as the frequent things are capable of causing such hearty and spontaneous laughter as is induced by the peculiar and sudden transformation shown in these pie lures. Absolutely clean and whole some and affording the keenest pleas ure to the children and a happy diver sion to their elders, the Lyman Howe Moving Pictures are always welcome. Montpelier Daily Journal.] The Moving Pictures will appear at the auspices of the local Red Men, with a bright, fresh program.
