There was no special entertainment here on New Year's day, every one en joyed Ihomgelves according to their own idea, a large number having played at the bowling alley all night; a tew sat up until midnight and rang tho old year out and tbe new in, to the delight of those that were up, and dislike of those who wore waked up from peaceful dreams.
