The "Merry Company."
The entertainment sriven at
the
Opera House last night by the pu
pi Is of the Hemenway and Union
schools, for the benefit of the library
fund of the schools, was attended
by one of the largest audiences ever
assembled there. The children had
well rehearsed their various parts
and the piece was produced in a
manner that would have reflected
credit upon those of older yearsfand
riper experience. There was no
hitch and no delay and the piece
worked smoothly and harmoniously
throughout. The large audience
were thoroughly delighted and we
are sure that a repetition would
draw another handsome house.

IL Chadbourn, Eminent Command
er. f The band appeared for the first
time in their new fatigue uniforms
of dark blue cloth and pants of a
lighter shade of blue. The Knights
made a splendid appearance and
their marching and movements were
admirable. The comment was gen
eral: "What a fine looking body of
men they are.' There were many
ladies on the boat.
