The siren whistle! Who is the 
man who invented it? And where is 
he? We would like to meet him and 
get an interview. He is all right. He 
has certainly hit on the proper scheme 
to keep North Shore people awake 
nights and to help the poor editor to 
keep awake during the few short 
hours he takes to sleep. Webster’s 
says that a siren is “something in- 
sidious or deceptive.” That’s it. It 
looks good, but when it “blows” it is 
all to the bad. The inventor certainly 
did a noble deed—for the mariner who 
sails near Baker’s Island. But he 
didn’t think of us poor beings at 
Manchester and Beverly Farms who 
like to sleep once in a while. Thurs- 
day night the siren kept up its “be- 
witching” sounds at intervals of a 
minute or two until well along in the 
forenoon. If you enjoy that. kind of 
music, all right ; we do not.

The summer residence of Jno. Gil- 
bert, Esq., the actor, was broken into 
July 15 and a large size pudding taken 
from the premises, also an apron, 
knife and fork. The pudding was 
taken about a mile away and half of it 
disposed of and the other half re- 
turned by one of our citizens, I. W. 
Parsons, which must have made sport 
for the owner, as it was of no good to 
him. 
The Manchester Cornet Band is in 
good trim just now numbering 18 
pieces, showy uniforms, and latest 
music. They practice in Lee’s block

drews, 2d leader, Jno. J. Andrews, 
business agent. 
The 2nd corps of Cadets, Lieut. 
Col. Browne of Salem, with the Ger- 
mania Band, go into camp August 
10th, at Magnolia. 
Richard H. Dana, now 88 years, of 
age, is occupying his summer resi- 
dence in town with his son R.H. 
Dana, jr., and family. It is about 30 
years since Mr. Dana first came to 
this town, and his was the first resi- 
dence built upon our seashore. 
Mr. E. A. Lane has bought of Mrs. 
Wm. Linn a two-story dwelling house

Wilt Thou Be Made Whole? 
JOHN V: 1-9. 
Lord, what a feeble company are we, 
Blind, halt and withered, waiting at the 
pool,— 
For such is here the unremitting rule,— 
Until the angel, coming suddenly, 
Ruffles the waters of the mimic sea, 
When, to its magic depths so clear and 
cool, 
Who first steps in shall straightway be 
made whole ' 
Of whatsoever his infirmity. 
Satan hath bound us, lo, these many 
years, 
But, Lord, thou seest how many throng 
the place, 
And while I strive, another steppeth in. 
Lord,-look upon us in thy pitying grace, 
Hear Thou our cry, mark our repentant 
tears, 
Thy word can cleanse from all disease 
and sin.

An Up-to-Date Office 
Two new up-to-date Gordon presses 
have been added to the equipment of 
the Breeze Print, Manchester, the 
past week. This addition, together 
with a quantity of new type, brings 
the office ona par with the best job 
printing plants in any town of the 
same size in this vicinity. . 
The new equipment was found nec- 
essary in order to successfully cope 
with the increasing business. Four 
persons are now employed in the 
printing department, and it will be 
possible with the increased facilities to 
turn out first-class work with prompt- 
ness and despatch.
