week closed Saturday night and the proceeds
amounted to 81, 200. This is not regularly
organized Catholic congregation, and it has
had from the beginning to depend upon the
revenue derived from entertainments of this
| sort. 1t has quite large mem bership III the
town, but large majority contribute little or
nothing to its support. debt OF $4,000 rests

letters of congratulations from the out -of-toWn
companies for the successful manner in which
the block convention, held October %, was
carried through. Especial praise is being
showered upon them for the very generous
manner in which the refreshments were
served and knowing that the success OF this
part was entirely due to the untiriDg efforts of
the ladies who assisted them, they have at
their last meeting adopted resolution to ex-
tend to them vote of thanks which they hope
the ladies will accept until they are able to re-
pay them as they richly deserve.

Rev. Lewis Beeman Browne, who has been
in charge of st. Matthew's Mission of this
place for a number of years, in consequence of

Matthew's Church very materially, and his
labors were constant allowing himself little or
no relaxation. His many friends in this COM
