It I a pleaaure to writa up program
like that given at the Congregational
church last evening. Fvery number
wasagein. The audience, though fair
In sle, waa nut so large a it should
have ht-eu to merit such an entertaii
liient. The ladies of the church, assist
ed by their friend, bad done some very
bard work in training the little tot to
their part, and the hearty applause
showed bow well the children dad
obeyed instruction. Much credit i tine
Mra. Collin for her care in training the
children for the hoop drill. The action
and time were jierfect, and the girls,
clad in white and blue, luadtj a pretty
light. The (anion clusa of Mr. Condon
went through their part fierfectly, rede-ting
credit on Mrs. Condon and Mis.
l'.urk of Oakland, who generously gave j
her time and asaixtance. The ladies
wish to thank also Mrs. Peters, who'
kindly held in making the evening a '
success. The committee in charge, I
Mra. S. J.. lirooks, Mrs, Huntington i
and Mr. F. M. Wilson, can be pleased j
at the success of the entertainment. j
The jirogram opened w ith a long by
six young ladies, which waa lieautifully
rendered. The yoiinjj ladie sang pret
tily and lxkd well, which made an ir
resistable combination.
Whenever the church choir king
there is ! re to be good music, and It
was esH-cully so last flight. The double
quartette, composed of tde choir and
one or two Jrieiid", gave a charming se
lei tion.
Mr. and Mrs. W. S. Myers read a dia
logue, which was very well received by
their hearers.
Little I.ela Keltuy sang a solo 111 a
winning manner. l,i: is but a little
girl, but bus h remarkably voice for one
so young.
Jamie Huntington recited alout
"Hanirg Up I'.aby's Stocking' in a
captivating way. His face beamed with
good nature, and be was not in the
least afraid of speaking in clear good
tones.
A song by the male quartette was well
liked by the audience.
Mr. I. S. Huntington favored the aud
itors with reading a selection about the
landing of the Pilgrim Father. Mr.
Huntington is an exceptionally good
reader, and w a at bis l?st last evening.
Ir. Ifcmne Bang a nolo in hi rich bass
voice that called forth hearty apprecia
tion. The performance of the little children
took tho house by storm. Wearing
pax-r cap they inarched 011 the stage
ami sang their fongs as cunningly as
only children can do. It was hard to
tell which enjoyed it the most, the chil
dren or their admirers.
The evening was indeed a pleasant
one, and those who staid away missed
something they would have enjoyed.

Captain McKay, of the Dundee whaler
Terra Nova, related to Captain (iay a
story which Beems almost like an old
time romance, says the Ixnidon Times.
It would appear that about the middle
ol Septemlr an unusually large whale
was fallen in with and killed by the
boats of the Terra Nova. The li-h was
brought alongside, and the work of cut
ting up waseommenced. Some obstruc
tion was discovered to have lodged in
the blubber, and 011 searci: being made
an old harpoon was extracted. The
weapon bore the name of the whaler
Jean of lio ness, ami was dated forty
years back. DM Arctic navigator will
remember that the Jean w as lost in the
ice iome thirty-seven ye-s ago. The
steel was bright as the day the harpoon
wa made, and the whale n-emed to
have sustained no injury from it. As
may be imagined, the Ending of such a
relic was the subject of ni;ch speculation
and talk among the member! of the
various crews.
