The Blnevale brass band furnished the
mesio at the rink on Wednesday even-
ing, and it wasu't to be sneezed at,

tendons organizations. Blnevale has
every reason to feel proud of its band.
David Campbell, late baggage master
at the station here, started for Chicago
last Friday morning, and when he reach-
ed Loudon it was discovered that he bad

Items from The "Times" Pyles.
Last Friday a telegram wee received
from Chicago by Geo. Mi fulleu, of
Lower Wiughem, wllioh state th'tt hie
son, John McMullen was very low in the
hospital there with typhoid fever, Mrs.
McMullen immediately attrted for Chi-
cago, but arrived too late to sea her eon
alive, as he died before she arrived
on the following day. The re-
mains were interred in that oity.
A vote of the congregation of the
Presbyterian church was taken on San-
day to decide whether to retain th e ;
orgau in the church service, which has
been on trial for six months. The organ ,
party carried the point br a large major -1
ity, only two in the congregation having
voted to expel the instraramt. As the
result of having the organ, the music
daring the six months has been the finest'
the Preabyteriafi church in this town :
ever had.
It is our pleasant task this week to
chronicle an event of mach interest to
our many readers in that territory known
as the Blnevale circuit of the Methodist
chnlrch. This event is no less than the
marriage of the popular psstor of that
circuit, Rev. J. S. Cook, to Miss Susie
Canfield, of Odelltown, Quebec, which
was celebrated on the 24th September in
the historic Methodist church, near her
father's residence, and of which the
bride was a member. The ceremony
was performed by the Rev. James Awd,
B.A., of Montreal.
BOUNDARY LINE.
We are very sorry to intimate that
another of our friends in the person of
James Anderson haspassed away to his
long home. The departed was a resident
of the 6th eon. of Turnberry, and was
known as one of the pioneers of that
township. He was a native of Lanark-
shire, Scotland, and in 1851 emigrated to
this country. He took up his residence
in Rogerville and remained there for
two years. In 1855 he removed to Turn -
berry, where he remained until the time
of his death, which took place on Tues-
day 22nd ult.

SERMON REPORTERS. b.
Ia E.,gII.. Churehee They Are Oaf.
Admitted on Sufferance.
Some one who evidently speaks from
knowledge writes in the Iloruiletic Re-
view of "The Experiences of u Sermon►
Reporter." Ilis remarks on the differ-
ent rules in English and Americana
newspapers on sermon reporting and
his staterllent that it is necessary to
verify Scriptural texts are not without
interest. Possibly there is a text ter
a sermon not preached by the preaeh-
ere iu the following paragraph:
Reporters are invariably welcomed
to Amerlcan churches, for Americas
preachers seem fully alive to the value
of the advertisement obtained through
newspaper notices. Some preachers
even maintetin their,own "press agent"
iu order to secure the utmost publicity
for the occasionally brilliant and, It •
may be, eccentric statements which
they deliver. In English churches the.;
reporter is only admitted on sufferance.
Under an ancient law, whieb has never
been repealed, the taking of shorthand ,
notes of sermons is a misdemeanor
characterized as "brawling" and pun-
ishable by imprisonment. In a few
American, churches „special...desks are
available for reporters. They are, ' in
any case, treated with the utmost cour-
tesy by the ushers and provided will,
seats immediately below the pulpit..
On a rare occasion in a crowds)
church a reporter has been allowed to
seat himself on the pulpit steps, and
on one extraordinary occasion it is re-
corded that a stenographer was con-
cealed within the pulpit itself.
RABBITS AS F000.
De Sure They Are Toning and Thoth
Cook Them With Onloaa.
Conies, the parent rabbits, were long
considered as indlgestible, provocative
of melancholy -a black meat, breeding
nightmares -but young rabbits hays
long been approved by thoughtful eat-
ers. They were once eaten very young,
and Topsell protested quaintly against
the practice of cutting them out of the
mother: "I trust there is .,no- mask
among Christians so inhumanely glut-
tonous as once to devise or approve the
sweetness of so foul it dish." Tame
conies are not so good as the wild
ones, for every creature doth partake
in taste of the air wherein he livetb,
and the air of the rabbit warren Is not
favorable.
The Mare was praised extravagantly
by Ilorace and Martial, and Apicius
gave many recipes for dressing it, but
the rabbit was not much esteemed
among the Greeks and Romans. Te -
day there are many ways of cooking
the latter -brown or white fricassee,
young rabbit in curl papers, croquette.,
fillets, gelatin, gratin, rabbit pie, pud-
ding, soup, scallops, mince of rabbit
nu fumet, rabbits a la venitienne, whits
glbelots, turban, of ,fillets,' kickshaws
with Italian sauce, and, best of • all -
how the savor arises as we write'
rabbits and onions. But the rabbits
must be young -those whom the gods
love eat thein young.
A DOG IS ALWAYS HONEST.
He Can't Growl and Won Hie Tall as
the Same Time.
"There Is one peculiar thing about
dogs," remarked a well known local
fancier arid huntsman, and that Is you
ne'rer saw' one 'pant and wag his tall
at the same time. A dog is not capa-
ble of a' dbifble emotion. He can't
growl and It-ag his tail at the same
time, for it is Impossible for him to
be mad at one end and glad at the
other.
"If a dog le glad to see his master
he will -bark aris3' wag, his tail.• If he
wants to get into the'bouse he will
paw at the door, whine and wag ble
tali, but 'they are all symptoms of one
and the lanae emotion. But if his .tas-
ter opens the floor he will cease to
show anxiety immediately by whining
and will show' pleasure only by the
wagging of his tail.
"In order to' get a man's temper one
must 'watch his eyes, but for a dog's
you have to watch bis tail. The dog is
likewise incapable of deceit, and hence'
he Is nothing of 'a politician. He de-
ceives no one, not even his master. It
he Is overjoyed every emotion is In-
dicative of that fact, and his whole
makeup gives ample testimony to It.
If he IS displeased or angered it Is the
same way."
A Doable I'reaeataties.
• John Kendrick Bange,on 'e ran across
a gift copy of 'one of his books in is
secondhand bookshop, still having this
inscription on the fly leaf: "To hie
friend, J. G., with the regards and the
esteem of J. K. Bangs, July, 1898."
Mr. Bangs bought the copy and sent It
to his friend again with a second In-
scription beneath, "This book, bought
in a secondhand bookshop, is re -pre-
sented to J. G. with renewed and re-
iterated regards and. esteem by J. L
Bangs, December, 1899."
