legerdemain tricks and concluded his per
formance with juggling exhibition
that would put a good many people OF
the big time to shame. Mrs. James
G. Prize gave a pleasureable reading
after having been drafted from her du.
ties in the kitchen by an insistent cont
mlttee from Barre. Members of Mr.
Prizes immediate family who reluctantly
consented to help the fun along were
given loud applause
During a lull in the merrymaking a
bountful luncheon of coffee, sandwiches,
! fruit cheese, etc, was served by num-
Der of young women. During the trip
to the farm frosty brand of night air
had put most everyone's appetite on
edge and it was during the intermission
that Mr.. Prizes good old-fashoned hos
ptality found the most favor. Before
the party ended the band played again
and congratulations to the new repre-
sentative came pouring in from all sides.
1t was memorable occasion and friends
of Mr.. Pirie who participated in the do
ings will not soon forget it.
James kelman Prize was born May l3,
1858, in Peterhead, Scotland. He came
to America in 1874 and learned the gran
itecutters' trade in st. George. n. b.
and other granite centers. He came to
the Barre district in 1880 and bought
the quarry land which he now operates,
in 1882 Since the latter date he has
been resident of Wiliamstown. He
was married in 1882 to Miss Mary $.
Farnsworth, to whom is due a good deal
of the success OF last nights reception.
They have three sons and seven daugh
tiers. Mr.. Pirie has served his town as
Justice of the peace Tor 20 years; he
has been town grand juror, selectman
and school director, and if there were
any more important offices in Williams
town that were hard to fill, he would
probably be drafted again.

An extraordinary scene took place in
the Princess theater, London. on the
night Of the first production of Charles
Reade's great play, Never Too Late to
Mend" Oct. 4. 1865. During the prison
scene a large quantity of water was
thrown over Miss Moore, who took the
part Of Josephs. the character doae to
death by the warders. One of the
critics, Mr.. Tomlin of the Morning Ad-
vertiser, rose from his seat and public
ly protested against the unnecessary
cruelty. This aroused almost riot
among the audience. and the action OF
the play was stopped for some consid-
cradle time. Fuel was added to the
fire by George Vining. the lessee of the
theater. who was playing the part of
Tom Robinson and who made a most
imprudent speech. in which he prac-
ticaIIy insulted every critic present,
with the result that the theater was
left severely alone by the press for
many months. The play, however,
turned out to be popular success and
had, for those days. the phenomenal
run of 40 performances.

Trapped by It's Portrait.

If an old English writer be true In
his observations the pheasant must be
a very simple bird. for he declares that
1t puts its head in the ground and
thinks that all its body Is then hidden.
The same author says that it was also
captured by another curious plan. A
picture Of the bird was painted on
cloth and then placed in spot where
it was sure of being seen. By and by
a silly pheasant coming along catches
sight of the portrait and goes up to
have a close view of the new neighbor.

That the automobile truck is com ing more into every day use, throughout the United States. and in every line of business. is the state ment and opinion of Graham D. Far ley. factory representative of the Ov- erland company. Farley returned to the Warren District yesterday morn ing from Tucson and Phoenix where he has been on business for the past two weeks. The factory representa- tive is in the district aiding the Brophy Auto Company in getting their district Overland agency start ed in good form.
 In speaking of the truck business of the United States Farley said that though it was not increasing quite as fast as the pleasure vehicle business yet it was making wonderful strides in the right direction. and would soon supplant the horse where. at the present time. such condition is not dreamed of.
 one of the greatest outlets for the light truck business. such as the Wnlys Utility Truck, according to Farley, Is Co the farmers. In time, states the visitor, the progressive farmer of the United States will as soon be without a reaper as without seryiceable. light auto truck. To a farmer in the harvesting season. the question Of time is often para mount An auto truck will do the work which horses now are engaged in and will make the work quick. er. by a considerable time. than they now require
 In the course of few years, said Farley last night. "I expect to see the greatest developmnt along thes' lines in the hstoy. oi ne. <. mobile business.
