SONS OF TEMPERANCE

Fredericton

District Division No. 4 ecnvened in quarterly session with Refuge Division, Fredericton, on Thursday afternoon, 21st inst. District W P., A W Tanton, presi- ded, The usual routine of business was gone through. Miss Jannette McLeod, of Hunter River, was elected District Sup’t of juvenile work. A committee was appoint~ ed to work in conjunction with Grand Scribe Weeks with regard to furthering the interests of the order and w especially help weak divisions throughout the Distric:. The public meeting at night wasa grand success. The large hall was packed—many were without seats. District W. P., occupied the chair. Tue programme, which was a lengthv, one consisted of speeches by P. G. W. P. I C Clarke, Esq, E S Weeks, aad Mr Henry Rackham, Prov Deputy. The add: es of w:lccme was gi‘ei by Mr G W A Stevenson. Excellent music was rendered by the Refuge Division choir.. A solo by Miss E Weeks was well received Readings by Yr C B Warrev,of Cla ‘love town, were quice in keeping with bis repu~ tation and were well received. Recitations by Mr Hill and Mr Deacon, aleo by Mra J W McLennan were heartily applauded. But the rerdition of a song by Mr. Her- bert Toombs (the accompaniment played by Mrs Toombs) brought down the houee, and he was most enthusiastically ¢mcored. His second selection was receives with prolonged applause.

WEDDED HIS WIFE’S MA.

And Afterwards Made Rer Pass as His Own Mother.

NorwaLk, Conn, Sept 23 —Thia Stets of Connecticut can boast of many eccentric characters, but in the case of Peter Phillips, who married his motber- in-law, the ideal of courage and peculias daring has apparently been reached. If what the wife, who was the mother~in-law,

says is true, Mr. Pbilips may fiod himself ip prison as@ result of his intres pidity,

Philips loved his first wife, who died two years ago, and losing her he determin- ed to take ber mother as a Sort of consola- tion prize. This he did, and was preeun ~

ably bappy until sbe came to him one day and said she needed a new set of teeth.

This brought to his mind a conviction that ete was too old for him, whereupon he very frankly told her so.

‘Now, you pore as my mother and I will support you for lif . and in the mean. time I will look around tor another wife.”

The former mother-in-law was agree- able, aud when a young bride was found the legitimate Mrs. Philips welcomed her into her“ son’s” home, Some time ago however, he began to neglect hi “mother.” ard she thereuzen told Mre,s Philips No 3 the story of the deception.

Wiarine Insurance

APPLY TO

Upon mature reflection the two women concluded they had better consult an attorney, which they did, both exhibit. ing merriage certificates. The attorney, while admiring the bold spirit of Philips, ‘told them he was probably guilty of bigamy and could be prosecuted tor that offense.

The women didnot careto take such a step, for, as Mre. Phillips No 2 said feeling- ly,**He was a goed son and husband some

FW. Hyndman

of the time.” They tcld the attorney they would think | the matter over further, and departed.
