MANCHESTER WOMANS CLUB. 
J. L. Harzour oF Boston, LECTURED 
AT OPEN MEETING Mon- 
DAY EVENING. 
The Manchester Womans’ club 
held an open meeting Monday eve- 
ning to permit J. L. Harbour of Bos- 
ton to fill his engagement with his 
lecture “Blessed Be Humor,” for 
which he was originally booked 
March 7th, while in New Orleans. 
He was unavoidably detained in the 
south, 
Mrs. Tenny presided and first in- 
troduced Miss Dora Marshall, who 
executed the following two pianoforte 
selections very ably:—1tst, Nocturne, 
J. Leybach; 2nd, Valse in B., God- 
ard, before the lecture. 
Mr. Harbour, who is a member of 
the Youths’ Companion editorial 
staff and a writer of note, stated that 
he had come to entertain, not to in- 
struct. From his fund of humorous 
experiences in a diversified career in 
the west and east as miner, prospec- 
tor, newspaper reporter, teacher, edi- 
tor and litterateur, he had gathered 
together much humorous material. 
Mr. Harbour taught the first school 
in the great mining camp of Lead- 
ville, Colo. He drew his examples of 
humor from the amateur writers, 
particularly those who soared in the 
realms of love and _ spring poems. 
The humor of the mistakes in proof 
reading, and rural journalism were 
demonstrated. 
Other examples of humor were 
blunders in letters, humor of the 
Irish, whose merriment comes from 
that great expansion of heart, subtle, 
keen and good natured. Jewish hu- 
mor, slips of the tongue, humor of 
situations, humor of repartee, illus- 
trated by anecdotes of Mrs. Julia 
Ward Howe and humor of childhood 
were all illustrated. The merry, 
cheery person created an atmosphere 
all his own, therefore “ Blessed Be 
Humor” was Mr. Harbour’s admoni- 
tion. 
Mr. Harbour created many hearty 
laughs, and was heartily applauded. 
Quite a large audience was present. 
N. Kassanos announces to his pa- 
trons and to North Shore people in 
general that he has bought out the 
interest of M. G. Revelas in the 
fruit store established last summer 
in the Knight building, 26 Central 
street, under the firm name of Reve- 
las & Kassanos, and that he will con- 
duct the business alone in the fu- 
ture. He will strive to give the best 
of service.
