THE YEAR CLOSES.
(From the Press Bureau.)


Bethel Literary and Historical as.
sociaton closed its season for the
year on Tuesday night with sym
postum composed of some OF the lead
ing doctors of the city. Doctors James
C. Bowling. Julia R. Hall, Michael o.
Dumas and Z. d. Williston compose
the number. The doctors did justice
to the cause and gave added lustre to
their profession.
With this meeting closed the first
year OF Miss Marie A. ID. Madre's
administration. In many of its fea-
lures ii was the most successful year
in the history of the society. 1t be-
gan amid a storm; 1t ended in calm,
with the hostile forces either subdued
or reconciled by its success. The So
Brownsville affair" contending that
the president was wrong, and in this
ciety early took position upon the
attitude 1t has been sustained by the
country. 1t has given opportunity for
men of all shades of opinions to pre-
sent their case: and has been espec-
tally kind in bringing to the front
young men, serving the public by a
dissemination of truth and the higher
conception of American citizenship.
The Press Bureau has stood with
Bethel Literary and the A. NJ. E. de-
nomination throughout this year and
no agency can more heartily congrat-
ulate Miss Madre and the society over
which she has so ably presided than
this Bureau. We trust that all those
who have gone out from the society
will return "a welcome awaits them.
With those who are at the helm there
is no rancor, no bitterness, but a
spirit of progress and good will. Every
step taken by those who stood by
the "old ship" in the dark night has
been justified by the success OF the
year. The society has succeeded, and
nothing succeeds like success" What
II has done Is now a matter OF history,
the glorious things to be achieved in
the future will reflect credit upon its
past and maintain an ideal for a
worthy future.
A quarter of century Of achieve
ment, a quarter of century Of pro
gress by this great organization, is
crowned by the success of a woman's
administration, which marks worthy
view of the world. Congratulating
Miss Madre and the friends who have
stood by her, We bid them sail on to
future worthy of the age Of battle
and strife.

in the profession of law, was carried to a
premature grave. His father, it IL said,
