(For the Observation-Disclosures


On Saturday evening, March Sth. 1t
was my pleasure to meet at the Yes
try of the Bethany Church in com
pany with about sixty-five Of the
young people of that society. The
event was their regular monthly So
cial. The boys employed the ear
lier part of the evening in various
games in the basement athletic rooms.
On the arrival of Joseph Coburn
Smith with two of his Colby College
classmates the athletics were aban-
doned and all entered into the spirit
of. the social which was held in the
church vestry. Ice cream and home
made candies were sold for the bene-
fit of the boys club and the evening
was passed very pleasantly. When
1t came time for the younger mem
hers to go home the Pi Sigma boys,
Senior Team, played the Colby stu
dents q very fast game of basketball
In the splendid court recently fitted
up for the boys and girls of the Beth
any Church.
The following Sunday morning, at
1890. large group gathered in the
vestry adjoining the church ready to
march in at the beginning of SER
vices. 1t was an impressive sight to
see these ninety boys and girls from
ten to eighteen years of age march
to the front of the church where they
filled about twenty seats. 1t seems
this custom of the Bethany Girls
and Boys Club OF attending Sunday
morning worship In body, on the
second Sabbath of each month, has
been carried out for the past two
years. Impressed by the social above
described and this Sabbath morning
event desire very much to know I'M
der what circumstances and by whom
the idea originated. have never
seen. anything just like it in any other
church society.
The social and the Sunday morn
ing gathering have an important rela-
ton to each other and a third part
of the program Is that the sermon to
be preached on these events shall be
in story FORM, wholly for the benefit
Of these young people. On the morn
ing in question the address was deli
vered by one of the Colby students.
1t just fitted the occasion and it was
very noticeable that the speaker held
the undivided attention of his young
auditors. 1t could be further obser-
yed that both speaker and listeners
were being well pleased.
There was fourth consideration
In connection with the events already
mentioned this being a Christian En-
deavor meeting, held the evening of
the same Sunday, in which two Colby
visitor participated and which proved
equally interesting to the body of
young people.

panied by Dr. Marsh and DR.. Wilson.
His testimony relative to the condi-
ton of Mitchell was practically the
same as that advanced by DR.. Marsh.
He said the flesh on the injured leg
was rather scaly and the muscles
withered as to be expected, but other
wise that the condition of the leg was
good, without sores Or abrasiOns.
There was no hone union and no ex-
tension left On the leg he said. The
plates were not permanent, the pic
lures having been taken rather crude
ly, but. were sufficiently clear he said
to show that there was no union of
the bones and that they were clear Of
calus.
The criminal docket was taken up
briefly by County Attorney Thorne
and number of cases were ordered
for trial. PERSONS indicted and at
present in jail will probably be
brought into court Thursday to plead.
Walter Mercief who was indicted for
maintaining a liquor nuisance pleaded
guilty and was committed to jail to
a pClltIbC' oCOl sc l@Odiot
Viger who were both indicted for
maintaining a liquor nuisance both
pleaded not guilty and the necessary
sureties for their further appearance
was furnished by B. A. Walker and
W. j. Chamberlain, both of Arson.
The cases against Steam Collins
Aplt. and Andrew 10th were both mol
pressed and the other case against
Andrew 10th, which was for non-sup-
port, was placed on file, as was the
case against Emile Gagnon for nuis-
ance. Among the cases ordered for

Dear Sir:
| would like TO write few lines
about the outgoing mails from Show
hogan. wonder how many people
in Skowhegan are aware of
the fact that there is only one mail
a day received here in Oakland from
Skowhegan, and | believe from Oak
land clear through to Leeds Junction
and ] don't know how much farther.
l am working here and you could post
me a letter at 7 n. m. from the mail
box in front of Frank Lessons store
on Madison avenue, and l wouldn't
get 1t till 800 a. m. next day. The
11.45 a. m. train takes no mail to
these points and the 2.35 D. m. only
connects as far as Oakland. The
11.45 a. m. connects with the Bangor
train at Waterville and that train goes
through to Portland, the last train OF
the day, with mail clerk / think
that Is some mail service for these
days, one mail day.
