The news that The House Of Mirth'
is to be dramatized will be hailed with
delight by all lovers Of the drama. OF
course It will be necessary to add a
plot, but any stage carpenter can sup
ply that. and what action the novel
lacks can be furnished with pair OF

duced as the direct or indirect reuslt
of this camp meeting than all the
churches put together in the bounds of
the district. People have come from
all quarters and freely give their mon
ey for the running expenses of this
camp meeting and nearly all Of them
have preferred that their names were
not known. Yet the leaders of our
church would have us report it as
church expenses and would ignore the
report of money given pastor by one
who may not be member of his own
flock, though it may have amounted to
so cents or 81. Should these annual
collections been reported every year
since the organization Of the camp
meeting it would have amounted to
more than five thousand dollars and
yet our own home churches have given
but small amount Of It comparative
ly speaking, and yet we are called up
on to render an account Of their stew
ardship and in these latter years jeal-
ousy has been created in our own ranks
and is much attributed to acquisitions
brought by people that knew least
about the affairs, but should there be
an edict that this camp meeting should
close in 1907 there would come up a cry
from the four quarters Of the earth
from every name and order against il.
Why? Because the camps are owned
by all denominations, or nearly all and
they have paid their money for them.
They don't own the grounds but they
do own the camps by virtue Of prom
Use and repromise and they have no use
for them but to camp in them every
year and it is great pleasure. We
have looked forward for these sixteen
years with pleasant expectations for
the coming Of that noted day, Wednes-
day. before the fourth Sunday in Aug
ust as the day TO move into the camps
for ten days and those ten days are as
much enjoyed as is possible.
In reference to this camp meeting as
a charitable institution, have known
invalids TO receive as much as thirty
dollars and sent them to their destina-
tion. The people become liberal as they
associate together in a meeting like
this.
To bring It nearer home. when r. NJ.
Franks had his horse stolen from the
camp ground few years ago the peo-
pie with one accord made up eleven
dollars and odd cents to secure his
horse. Think Of an institution that i
more charitable. The wants Of the
sick and suffering have been met liber.

fire during Bro. Jim Bigham's 5 ministery

save il. Notwithstanding this the
church or pastor ordered that the shed

denominations during the camp meet.

A BIT OF HISTORY
OF the Hurricane Camp Meeting
Held Annually for a Number
Of Years

Editor of THE REcoRD:-I have been
asked to write up the history of the
Hurricane camp meeting. If you will
give me space will try to write from
memory some of the facts in the his
tory in the year 1890.
Sixteen years ago Bro. S. X. Breed
ing, the pastor of Hurricane church Or
ganized the camp meeting at Hurricane
with the following names as camp
meeting committee: Joseph W. Guess,
S. F. Crider, T. A. Minner, j. B. Per-
ry, Jas. T. Terry, DIR. |. H. Clement,
Methodists, and R. M. Franks, then a
minister of the Baptist church. They
adopted the following rules: First,
that there should be no stands Of any
kinds on the grounds except feed
stable and hotel. Second, that the
ladies and the gentlemen should not
sit together during services.
A large shed was built for a place Of
worship. There was also a man Of this
committee appointed to distribute lots
for any who desired to build camps for
their own convenience in attending the
annual meeting. Among those who
were given authority was X. NJ. Franks
who was not a member at that time OF
Hurricane church. The camps were
built in good faith with the assurance
that they had a right TO control them
for camp meeting purposes. But soon
after the camp meeting began to be OF
note money lovers began to seek the
place to sell various things that are
sold at public drinking places. The
committee tried to hinder this in every
conceivable way. First, by paying at
the rates of one hundred and fifty "a
two hundred dollars PEE acre for the
lands occupied by stands. The stand
owners would move to another point
and set up again. One year the com.
mittee raised over four hundred dollars
for the purchase OF land and right OF
ways to prevent stands and to perpet.
uate the privilege Of the camp meeting
This money was obtained as a free
will offering from people that lived in
at least six different states as well as
our own people. The camps are nov
owned by people from different coun.
ties and states and so far have not con.
sented to relinquish any title promised
by the committee. Since the organiza.
tion the committee has been changed.

The disadvantages were only to thos'
who misapplied their privileges.
The committee has always endeavor.

was no opposition by the rulers Of IN,

Mr.. Huntley's Dog Wasn't Mad.

A puppy belonging to c. A. Huntley
of Bridge street was shot by one OF
the police officers Yesterday morning
after it had cut up such queer antics
that MANY people had become fright
ened, thinking that the third mad dog
had come to the city. 1t is probable,
however, that the dog was afflicted with
fits which at any other time would
have passed almost unnoticed by any
one eycept the owner. Mr.. Huntley is
nroprietor of the Meadow City laundry
and had the dog there with him IN the
morning. When the dog began to act
strangely the employees of the laundry
were somewhat alarmed, but when the
spell seemed to pass away, matters
seemed about to reassume their normal
tone But the dog was taken AGAIN
and again with increasing frequency
and finally Mr.. Huntley decided to take
the dog to his home and started with
him on a leash. His commissions on the
street attracted the attention of many
people and by the time Mr.. Huntley
had reached his home and secured the
dog there. the neighborhood was pretty
thoroughly aroused. Some one tele-
phoned TO Chief Gilbert, who at once
DISPATCHED Officer John Rudy to the
scene When Mr.. Ruddy reached the
house he found that there was consld-
cradle excitement in the air and the
dog was surely out of sorts. Urged by
the people who stood about Mr.. Ruddy
decided to kill the dog, but Mr.. Hunt.
lev wished him to wait until the arrival
of Veterinarian Harry NJ. Martin, when
he had summoned Mr.. Ruddy was
willing that the dog should have a
chance for his life and so consented
after communicating with headquar-
ters Dr. Martin examined the dog ana
pronounced his trouble due to fits from
which he said the animal would not be
likely to ever recover, although ne
might live for quite while. This con
WINGED Mr. Huntley that it would be
best to have the animal killed at once
since in that condition he would be
source of alarm to everyone, othcer
Ruddv promptly changed the dog INTO
produce for the soap factory and every
one seemed satisfied DIR. J. II. ROBERTS,
agent for the state in such matters, has
decided that it will not be necessary to
send the head away for analysis, for u
is practically certain that the diseased
dog did not bite any others.-North-

Story of Carolina.

The story of Carolina, the new Am
eriean play which has its first stage
presentation at the auditorium Satur-
day. Aug. %, deals with the jewellers
in that most picturesque section OF our
country which is included in the South
ern range of the Appalachian cham.
These mountains, lying to the west OF
the Carolinas, have, until recently,
been little known to the outside world,
although such authors as James Lane
Allen. Charles Egbert Craddoek (Mlss
Murfree), and others, have done much
in recent years to make the reading
public familiar with the locality IN
which the scenes are laid 1t is amid
these scenes that the author found the
characters in Carolina. These charac-
tiers are no creations of a playwright
brain; they are real because they are
drawn from life and because their
counterparts are living today. Caro-

purpose of looking at Naulahka, not
knowing that the place formerly occu-
pied bv Rudyard Kipling had been

when he found on investigation that
Naulahka was no longer in the market
but he was so impressed with the beau
ty of the country about Brattleboro
thpt he intends to come here again IN
the fall to look for another place. In
conversation with Y. 0. Jones OF the
firm of CIapp & Jones Mr.. Nicholson
said that his family was now at Ken
nebunkport. The author himself will
sail Aug. % for London on a brlet
business trip, returning the latter part
of September. In October, he told MI.
Jones, he intends to come to Brattle-
boro again and at that time will visit
all the surrounding country. MI.
Nicholson was loud in praise of the
scenery hereabouts and thought Brat
tleboro an ideal spot for summer
home.
