VOLUME 5. NUMBER 47 
Two Ranared and sixty-eight 
years ago Wednesday, Nov. 20, it 
may interest our readers to know, 
the first white child was born in 
Naumkeag, says the Salem News. 
He was Roger Conant, and he 
was the son of Roger Conant, the 
founder of Salem, who arrived 
from Jeffrey's creek, or Manches- 
ter, as itis now called, in 1626, 
and with about 100 others, settled 
and passed their lives in old 
Naumkeag, Other than that he 
was born, little is known of young 
Roger. 
WHISPERINGS. 
Chief Hoare of the Manchester fire 
department isa very obliging man. And 
he wouldn’t make a bad newspaper man, 
either. ‘The night before the fire at 
the D. B. Kimball estate I met him on 
the street. He stopped as usual and 
6c 2 
asked me what’s the  news.’’ 
cc . . ° ° 
Nothin’ doing,’’ said the scribe; 
“* vou fellows ought to give us a fire to 
write up.’’ And sure enough, we 
hadn’t more than settled down to work 
next morning before the alarm rung in. 
Very obliging, indeed! 
* * * & 
Speaking of the fire, it is great sport to 
see the crowd rushing whenever an 
alarm rings in, and how some will try to 
“hop’’ onto a passing wagon or carriage 
in order to get a more speedy delivery to 
the scene. Thursday morning a man 
was walking down Beach ‘street as the 
alarm sounded. He had evidently been 
to the market and was homeward bound 
with his purchase under his arm. He 
tried to connect with the tailboard of a 
passing wagon at the railroad crossing, 
but missed his footing and fell all over the 
street, his lamb chops being scattered all 
over the road. But that was only in- 
cidental; he picked his dinner from the 
oil soaked mud, wrapped them again in 
the wrapper and hastened onto the fire. 
Magnuson—Rainville. 
Sunday afternoon, Nov. 17, at the 
home of the bride’s mother, School 
street, Manchester, Miss Alice Rose 
Rainville, daughter of Mrs. Leah Rain- 
ville, was united in marriage to Axel 
Magnuson. ‘The wedding was a very 
quiet affair, only a few of the close 
friends and relatives of the couple being 
present, owing to the very feeble con- 
dition of Mrs. Rainville. 
The ceremony was performed at 4 
o’ clock by the Rev. E. Hersey Brewster, 
the double ring service being used. 
The couple were unattended. Charles 
Rainville of Salem, the eleven year old 
nephew of the bride, acted as ring bearer. 
The room was very tastilly decorated 
with flowers. 
Mr. and Mrs. Magnuson are well and 
popularly known in Manchester. ‘The 
bride is organist at the Baptist church 
and is ateacher of piano. Mr. Mag- 
nuson is of the firm Magnuson & Hylen, 
florists. They will reside for the pres- 
ent with the bride’s invalid mother on 
School street. 
Hollis Street Theatre. 
Charles Frohman brings Miss. Hattie 
Williams and her 70 funmakers in ““ The 
Little Cherub’’ to Boston Thanksgiving 
week for a brief visit. By arrangement 
with Manager Rich they will appear this 
time at the Hollis Street theatre where 
Miss Williams and the ‘‘ Cherub’’ sing- 
ers, dancets and entertainers will be at 
home to Boston friends for just one fort- 
night. It is a short stay, but it will be 
a brilliant and a merry one. Miss 
Williams, who delighted local theatre- 
goers for nearly three months last season, 
will return with all the happy and 
dazzling comedy cohorts that she led to 
victory here last season—-an extensive 
and varied corps ‘of comedians, half a 
hundred pretty girls in numerous radiant 
costumes, several clever specialty people 
and last but not least her own dashing, 
bubblesome, beautiful and melodious 
self with ‘‘Experience’’ and all the 
songs that tickled the ears and thrilled 
the hearts of those who heard them. 
During the limited engagement there 
will be matinees on Wednesday and 
Saturday at 2 o'clock sharp, and a 
special performance Thanksgiving after- 
noon. Owing to the many musical 
numbers and novelties the evening per- 
formances will begin promptly at 8 
o’ clock.
