Debate Last Night.

A debate took place last evening be-
tween the Webster and Forum socie-
ties of the High school. The Lead

and up to an early hour this morning
labored under the wrong impression
that the debate was to occur this

impossible to get a report. 1t was an
oversight pure and simple and if
those interested will accept this apol-
ogy, the Leader will square itself
by giving the result of the debate to-
morrow morning.
