STOPPED THE DUEL
But Not Until Maynard Was Nearly
Dead From Terror.
Regnier, the French satirist of tho
reign of Louis XIII.. forced a quarrel
upon the poet Maynard, who was al-
most Quakerish in his love of peace.
Maynard could not well avoid the ap-
pearance of taking up the quarrel, but
Immediately after the preliminaries
sought out his-patron, Comte de Cler-
rnont-Lodeve, and begged him to "sur-
prise" the party at the dueling ground
and break up the affair. The count
promised, and Maynard went away
with a lighter heart. But his patron,
wanting, some amusement, hastened to
the field and concealed himself In the
shrubbery before the party arrived.
Maynard went through the first stages
of preparation very well, but grew
more and more nervous as time passed
and the count did not appear. Then
he began to play for delay. First he
was sure that his sword was shorter
than his adversary's, necessitating a
Blow and technical measurement. Next
his boots hurt him, and he had a long,
hard struggle to get them off his feet.
At last, after the cold persplratioD had
begun to drip from his brow and he
was more dead than alive, bis pro-
tector emerged suddenly from the
bushes and Interfered. A peace was
soon patched up, Maynard declaring
that If he bad said anything disagree-
able about Regnier he had not Intend-
ed to do so and Regnier accepting this
as balm for his wounded feelings. As
Maynard threw down his sword at the
close of the parley and reached for bis
hat be was heard to murmur, "Anotn-
er time I shall trust to my own wits
to pull me out of a scrape, for If I had
depended on the count I might nave
been made Into mincemeat a half hour
ago!

SANDWICH
A Breach of Promise Case
For some time, it is alleged, one of
our prominent citizens has paid more
or less attention to a young-and beau-
tjful widow of this town forgetting or
at least not heeding the advice of the
immortal Mr. Weller to his son Sam-
uel to "beware of the vidders."
He .now claims that he was not seri-
ous in iiis intentions and that he was
"not attached to her, but however that
may have been the widow became at-
tached to him, and as he seems to
have lost interest, in the\matter she
has attached his property, which is
a form of attachment that he does
not enjoy.
The result is, that he finds himself
the defendant in -a first-class .Breach
of Promise Case and his questionable
attitude towards the widow will be
given an airing in the near future.
The parties in the case are so prom-
inent that it is feared no court room
will hold the vast crowd desirous of
attending the trial, so it will be held
in the Casino on Friday evening, July
St.h, under the auspices of Sandwich
Village Improvement Society, for
whose benefit the proceeds will be
devoted.
In other words, it will be a Mock
Court Trial, and it promises to be
one of the most enjoyable affairs of
many years, as a large number of our
loading people will participate in the
proceedings.
The committee having the trial in
charge have engaged Col. A. V. New-
ton , the well-known lawyer-lecturer of
Worcester, to attend to the details
and personally conduct the entertain-
ment.
Col. Newton has had remarkable
success in conducting similar enter-
tainments and without doubt the
Breach of Promise Trial will be here,
as elsewhere, an event to be remem-
bered with pleasure.

CENTERVLLE
Plymouth Choral Soclely Concert.
The Boston Times speaks as follows of
Prof. Stevens:
The concert given in the Universalist
church at Plymouth last Tuesday evening
by the Plymouth Choral society, Mr.
Charles B. Stevens, conductor, was a
most gratifying success, was thoroughly
enjoyed by tbe large audience in atttnd-
ance, and fully demonstrated that the
organization has not failed to steadily
improve the quality of its work. While
not numerically as strong as at some
other coucerts, the chorus was composed
ot good material familiar with the music
and thoroughly in sympathy with the
director, Mr. Stevens, who literally held
it at the tip of his baton , producing ex-
quiHite musical effects. In the interpre-
tation of the choral numbers the chorus
was so completely under the control of
tbe director that fine and artistic render-
ing was produced. Such results are only
to be obtained by weeks of faithful ,pai ns-
taking work , often under discouraging
conditions.
From Jbe time the altos, as one voice,
hit the firm note of the splendid opening
number , from the "Messiah ," fairly and
Rqmrel y, until the last notes of the tre-
mendous "Hallelujah chorus " rolled
away into silence , I he audience showed
itsi ftrewt appreciation by genemus ap-
plause Musically thiB was undoubtedly
the most satisfactory concert yet given
by tbe society.
There is a rumor thfl t the oratorio of
the "Messiah" may be eiven in the Ply-
mouth theater next Christmas , with com-
petent soloists and a full orchestra.
Mr. Stevens i« certainly an able con-
ductor , and the Plymouth , or any other
society, that secures bis services, is in-
deed fortunate .

Wianno Improvements.
First of all should be mentioned tbe
new macadam road at an expense of
about $7,000. Our summer guests will
greatly appreciate this as well as those
who have heavy loads to draw to and
from tbe beach.
Nearl y three miles of bulkheads along
the coast have been built the past year.
Severa l of the cottages have been re-
modelled and improved by a fresh coat of
paint and large Bums expended in tbe
improvements of lawns, now tennis
grounds), driveways and the buil ding ol
garages.
To enter some of these beautiful grounds
is in itself a rare privilege. The shade
trees, ferns, flowers, neatly trimmed
driveways give a very cool and refresh-
ing appearance to those who are accus-
tomed to the warm sultry air ot the city.
The interior of some of theso summer
residences reminds one of a palace filled
with a^nost everything that heart could
wish for to make home bright and cheer-
ful .
The delightful ocean breeza, the well
ttllt d libraries , th e large assortment of
games, child ren sporting on tbe green or
buttling in the surf. To sail , swim , ride
in nn auto at pleasure who thus fnvor jd
cou'd not enj >y life? Still tho improve-
ments continue and we ail rej iico to sse
it as it mean* not only more beautiful
summer residences but more work , butter
clothing and better living for the many
employed to keep up the different estates.
Besides all of this it appeals to the es-
thetic taste, it teacheB lessons of neatness ,
srnd is in itself an incentive even to those
of limited means to inapioveand beautify
their more bumble dwellings.
Among those who hiive improved their
estates in various ways are those of the
Richard Cross pla ce, Mrs. M. Babcock ,
Mr. Henry Day, Mr. Gould of Staten
Island , Mrs. Sawyer of New York , Mr .
Frank Day, Mr. E. H Sempler, Mr. F. E.
Jones, Mr. Andre w Adie , Mr. E Blog-
eett, Mrs. C. B. Prescott and the Yacbt
Club. Indued it would almost neem as if
some of these entered into pleasant rival-
ry to see who could make their estates
most attractive-
A great deal of this work has been un-
der the management of Mr. L. K. Paine
of Hyannisport, Mr. Robert Daniel , and
Mr. Ira L. Hinckley . These men have
had thousands of dollars ' worth of work
entrusted to tbeir care and from all ap-
pearances they have done their work
well , but the end is not yet for still we
hear the sound of tbe hammer and saw ,
shovel and scraper, hills are being Jev-
eled , low places filled in , crooked paths
straightened and deserts made to blos-
som as the rose.
The Weather.
This spring has reminded usof a place
in Norway where, it is said , there is so
much rain that a horse Hbies if he Bees a
man without an umbrella. Cheer upl
The sun shines. A few weeks from now
we may wish for the gentle showers.
Ilasc Ball.

A large number attended tbe gradua-

in g. Among thOBe who received diplo-

Warden Ames and Mr. Frederic Freeman
Scudder. We congratulate our young
friends and wish for them tbe greatest
success. If they live' up to their class
motto "Labor otnnia vincit ," labor con-
querB all , they need have no fear of
failure. At present they are enjoying the
class trip at the White Mountains.
The Village Improvement Society have
received an invitation to furnish a "float"
for the parade at Hyannis the 4th. It is
very doubtful if this invitation will be ac-
cepted as much as we should desire to
par ticipate in the celebration , as many
of the members have other engagements
and some of the directors do not feel that
money entrusted to their care for the im-
provement of this community can by
rights be used for a 4th of July celebra-
tion.
