BEVERLY 
The political pot has already begun 
to sizzle, and the suffrages of the 
voters will be taxed on election day to 
choose between the wheat and the 
chaff for the various elective offices in 
the city government. Thus far Mayor 
Wallis is the only candidate for that 
berth, but the alderman-at-large chair 
is being vigorously contested by pres- 
ent Aldermen Dow and Woodbury, 
both of whom have shown an eye of 
wisdom in looking after the city’s in- 
terests the past year. Alderman Des- 
mond will run again, and former Coun- 
cilman Brown hears the voice of duty 
- calling him to try to represent ward 1. 
Alderman Healey and Councilman 
Irving are each claiming the heaviest 
support in ward 2, and Alderman 
Crosby and Councilman McNutt are 
sparring for honors in ward 3. Down 
in ward 4 Councilmen Hinkley and 
Fielder and Messrs. Andrew Stanley 
and Henry E. Woodbury are desirous 
of a seat around the horseshoe table, 
and any one of the four would make a 
good official. Ward 5 seems to be the 
hotbed of enthusiasm with its three 
candidates, Alderman Dodge and’ 
Councilmen Caldwell and Edwards in 
the field, and developments are awaited 
with interest. Alderman Hodgkins 
promises to be his own successor in 
ward 6. For the council there seems 
to be no dearth of candidates, and 
many new and unfamiliar names are 
seen on the list. Every day witnesses 
a number of additions to the already 
large number of candidates, and it isa 
certainty that the election of Decem- 
ber 12 will be an interesting one. 
The pulpit of the Dane Street 
church will be occupied all day Sun- 
day by Rev. Edward C. Moore, D.D.,

gational church of Providence, R.I.,

Phinney will render selections on the 
harp at the evening service.

The Goodfellowship league of the 
First Baptist Bible school held a re- 
organization meeting at the social 
rooms on Wednesday evening. <A 
large number of the young men were 
present, and plans for the winter 
months were suggested and will be 
carried out. Ezra D. Hines, esq., of 
Danvers gave an interesting and in- 
structive talk on his recent tour 
through the British Isles, which was 
much enjoyed. The next meeting 
will be held in two weeks, when it is 
anticipated that a larger number of 
young men will attend.

at his home, 35 Abbott street, on

ments served. The club will enter- 
tain its lady friends at the next meet- 
ing, November 27.

proprietors. Hughes’ orchestra fur- 
nishes the musical program.
