other engagements babe their friends
goodbv and returned to Thurmont.
hf the picnic Col Pearre was intro
duced to many of the representative men
of the community and at three O'Clock
was introduced by Col. John X. RouZer
and made very appropriate address to
large assemblage of people, taking for
his theme the elevation of the masses
through the church and schools that they
NAV live christian lives and work for the
best interests of their country. Rev
Schweitzer of Union Bridge, DR.. Young
of Creagerstown, and Rev. Bready also
made brief addresses.
After the exercises were over Col.
Pearre was taken in charge by Mr.. Chas.

at Mr.. Jas. B. Ogles, and after spending
very pleasant time left on the Fast
Mail train for Baltimore.
Very Enjoyable Entertainment.
Those who failed to attend the even
ing of "Song & Story" given in the Hall
Tuesday night, missed a rare treat. 1t
is greatly to be regretted that artists OF
such unquestioned ability as Mrs. Adams
and Mrs. Clark, who gave the entertain
ment, should have had such small aud
ience What it lacked in numbers how
ever was compensated for by the enthu-
siastic applause of those present. Mrs.
Clark was most happy in all of her selec-
tions, but her child and negro dia lect
numbers seemed most appreciated. Mrs.
Adams has voice of much sweetness,
range and compass, and her songs gave
great pleasure to the audience. Miss
Landers gave "Carrissima" with her &C
customed good taste and voice and the gen
arous applause she received disproved the
saying that "a prophet is not without
honor save in his own country Miss
Beard proved an admirable accompanies
and her duets with Miss Fannie Root
were well received aid enjoyed. X.
