The young people of the 1st Baptist church wili give an old fashioned chicken pie supper at tlie church parlors on Wednesday nest, to which the public are invited. Afternoon and evening. The A. O. U. W., aro talking up ar rangements for their annual banquet which if given v,ill be in January, prob ably at'the date the new officers a- e to be installed. The stores are daily thronged with crowds of purchasers of holiday goods and it seems as if Santa Claus was look ing with a watchful eye after the inter ests of all his clients. The grand Kirmes has come and gone and as a result our citizens have enjoyed one of the finest treats in the shape of an entertainment, entirely by home talent, ever offered them. It was a kalediseope of beauty, song and grace fulness, nicely entwined in a pleasing program which took week’s of patient labor to prepare. The dances and drills were unique and original in their beauty making it very difficult for the large audiences to tell which was the best where all were so good. The frolicsome Gypsy band and the pretty German maidens were capital and the little folks which yvent through the\8measures of the pleasing Minuet drew rounds of ap plause. The: Japanese drill was a strong feature and was .dressed to perfection. The farce which had an exct-ptionly strong cast reflected credit on the actors one and all. Mrs. Elsie Watson has many elements of a careful, pleasiDg actress of the professional school and proved the right selection for the charac ter; the Misses Lizzie Olin, Carrie Olin, May Keeney and Mrs. W. JD. Page were splendid in their various parts and the gentleman showed to fine advantage, also Mr. Hatch, acting . the hen-pecked husband as natuaally as if he had “been to the manorborn,” but his three night experience may have the effect of mak ing him a confirmed old bachelor for life. Messrs. J. N. Wyckoff, C M. Smith, W. D. Page, A. J. Wood, Geo. Coleman and M. S. Nobles were .easy and careful delineators of their re spective roles in the comedy and won deserved applause. Henry McGowan as the Elevator Boy was a dandy. The farce gave much pleasure to the audi- auee each evening. Booths with tempt- ; * ing articles displayed and sold reasona ble were in charge of handsomely dressed committees. There was a large audience present each evening, many people coming from a distance. Too much praise cannot be given Miss Hat tie Surdam who has devoted much time in supervising the many details of the Kirmis and whose efforts have been crowDed with such a glorious success.

The mystery of the extraordinary low water in S ilv e r Lake perhaps finds a so lution in the following which we clip from the daily Democrat & Chronicle of Dec. 12th-. “Daring the sun spot m a x im u m 1 of 1888.-4-5 6 the great lakes were at very high levels Ontario’s waters were so high as to sub merge docks at Irondequoit bay. During the present sun spot minimum the lake is low. This year the lake is two feet low er^than It was last year. Captain Palfrey of the United States engineers, made a statement of. the present low condition of the lake before the Chamber of Commerce Monday evening. The Democrat & Chronicle called attention to the high water iu connection with m a x im u m sun spots, during the m a x i- : mum. During the high water, lake storms were very destructive. Their force was increased by .the solar activity and the waves reached farther, eating into the bluffs of the south shore, caus ing serious damages to property at va rious points. Several buildings were under mined at Sea Breeze and the tracks of the Rome, Watertown & Og- densburg R.-R., were encroached for a long distance west of Sea Breeze. A gentleman residing m Perry states that Silver Lake is now so low as to cause serious alarm. The outlet has dried up, and the surplus waters are discharged by evaporation alone. Silver Lake fol lows the general rule of a periodicity in high aud low water corresponding with the sun spot maximum and maxi mum.”. The outlet has not entirely dried up Bro. Main, but it is low enough. The receipts of the collection for the poor which was taken up at the Uni- versalist church on Thanksgiving day amounted to $>12,. which was equally distributed among the five churches rep resented. This was considerably larger than last year. There ft to be a X-mas tiee with ap propriate exercises held at the Uni ver balist c h u r c h o n M o n d a y evening* fo r the benefit of the scholars of the Sab bath school. It will be an evening of enjoyment to many. Early niuraing passengers for Roches ter now have to go via the Erie arovnd by Attica and Avon, reaching Rochester about 11 a. m. They can leave Roches ter at 8.80 p. m. via the B. R. &. rail road. The marriage of E. M. Wyckoff of Perry, and Miss Downing of Palmyra, occurs to-day. The many friends of the groom will wish him and his fair -.-■■bride long life, happiness and prosperity. They are to reside In this village. Oriental Lodge No. 173 A O. U.

Fisk, the genial secretary of the CastUe cheese association gives us following items regarding thje business; In 1887 the factory received a total of 839,728 lbs. of milk against a total of, 753,8981bs. for the pas.fc season, showing A decrease of 85,880 pounds for the year 1888f The amount of money received in 1887 was $8,000, and for 1888, only six thousand dollars. The average price received for cheese last year was 10c per pound, while this season it was only nine or a trifle under. The sales lor September and October were at the rate of 101- and 10£ cents and brought in about sixteen hundred dollars. The smallest price received during the season was-8 cents. With the present prices of hay and feed it will cost over .$30 to keep a cow and that sum Js about the price of a cow’s worth during the past season, which must be discouraging to dairy men.
