returned to the city this morning, after
passing two weeks with his nephew
in Tiverton, r. l. En- route home he
visited relatives in Somerville, Mass.
Two minor runaways on the streets of

carelessness of drivers in leaving their
horses uncovered in the cold. A double
hitch swung around Elm street from
North Main street in the forenoon, no
damage resulting. In the afternoon

Mrs. Harold j. Clark was pleasantly
reminded OF her birthday anniversary
last evening when 80 of her friends called

but she was equal to the occasion and
every member of the company was warm
ly welcomed. A short musical program
consisted OF piano solo by Miss Emma
Sevegny, vocal solos in dialect by Mrs.
f. NJ. Laws, and chorus singing. In be-
half of the company, f. NJ. Laws present
ed Mrs. Clark handsome parlor lamp
with electric attachment, the recipient

consisting of punch and waters, ice cream

ems were lnvlteu TO stay at Une ueanery
during their visit to Northampton,
and Richard Bradley (Cuthbert Bede)
was asked to meet them. 1t was, how
ever, Dickens custom on such occa-
sions to prefer to put up at a hotel
where he might be as private as he de-
sired and from the opportunities Of
guests who were anxious to hear his
brilliant conversation, but he cheerful
ly accepted Mr.. Parke's hospitality and
visited him at the deanery, although he
did not sleep under his roof.
He made more than one story in
that inn Ghe Swan, and his expert
ences there with the mention Of the
waiter whom he saw returning from
the fshmonger's across the way and
Shaping over his thigh the sole intend
ed for the noVelist's dinner formed the
subject for one of his graphic articles
in Household Words"
His journey by night from the same
inn to Birmingham supplied him with
the material for his famous paper,
"Fire and Snow" in the same journal
Mr.. Dickens was greatly pleased with
his Woverhampton hearers and after
ward told Cuthbert Bede, who sat by
Mr.. Parke's side in front row, that
he had never read to SO "quick" and
sympathetic an audience and that Of
ten in London he had scarcely been
able to continue his reading from the
"genteel" frigidity Of his audience. In
the very commencement of the Christ
mas Carol" where mention is made Of
Scrooge's clerk occupying a dismal lit
tie celia sort of tank"-there was an
irrepressible shout of laughter from an
occupant of the back seats, who doubt
less had an everyday experience of
similar tank. The laugh was taken up
by others, and the applause thencefor-
ward was continuous.
In talking with Cuthbert Bede at the
deanery over the events of the evening
Dickens especially referred to that
burst of laughter at the mention of the
"tank" and said that he instinctively
blamed the person for his applause.

The Realm of
Christmas. Fancy

To the realms Of Christmas fancy
I must speed away, away,
Where the elfs Of joy are dancing
And the sprites of pleasure play.
Imust go where gentle fairies
Whisper softly on the air
And the gift king waves his scepter
Over blessings sweet and rare.
Childhood's realm of Christmas
fancy
Once again shall feast my eyes
With the old time love and rapture,
With the old time fond surprise.
In the Pickering hearthstone shad-
ows,
In the music and the mirth,
Once again each dear remembrance
Speaks good will and peace on
earth.
In the realms of Christmas fancy
I shall very>shOrtly see
ALI the old, beloved memories
Coming back to gladden. me.
Long forgotten forms and faces,
Long departed thoughts and
dreams,
I shall find in those fair vistas
Where the Christmas glory
streams.

We notice that our editor made
a little mistake in the birth vi
Mr.. Bomar. He was ffty-four
years of age, 80 his half-brother
said. A great many have asked
if his mind was a little shattered
and the cause. His half-brother
said that when he was about
seven years Of age a negro threw
a brick at a mule one evening,
missed the mule and hit Mr..
Bomar on the head and fractured
the skull; that he was something
like five years getting over it;
that caused bis mind to be a little
of. at times. Mr.. Bomar was an
honest, Woodworking man, and
he was man that will be missed
in this community.
Mr.. Sand Mrs. ODE Chandler
