preached at the Congregational
church Sunday evening by Rev. Thos.
Barker to the class of eleven grad
ates. The text was taken taken from
Matt. 4: Ill, relating to the tempta"
tiOns of Christ The discourse was a
fOrceful one and elected the closest
attention of the large audience pre-
sent. Mrs. H, i. T. Ross rendered a
solo, "The Holy City" There was
also singing by double quartet.
The Class Day exercises passed of
very pleasantly last Friday evening
The opera house was prettily
decorated and the program was
excellent.
The Class Poem and Prophecy
were fine and prOvOked-a a good dea
of laughter. AlIthose who took part
did themselves and the schools
great credit.
OF course, the main interest cen
tered in the presence of Prof. B. l.
Birkbeck, who has been absent from
our city for about a year. Everyon,
was glad and eager to- see him. Hi
speech, which is published in anothe
column, was equal to the occasion.
Hurt in Runaway.
