MANCHESTER 
At a special meeting last night the 
Manchester club decided to hold their 
first anniversary dinner in the town 
hall on Friday evening, Dec. 7, at 7 
o'clock. The caterer will be from 
Lynn. The entertainment committee 
of the club will provide a program for 
that evening also. 
Thomas Jack, gardener at W. B. 
Walker’s estate, had the first hatch- 
ing of chickens of the season yester- 
day. Some of the most choice poul- 
try on the shore is to be found at 
“Highwood.”” Mr. Jack will show 
some of his White Wyandotts at the 
Beverly show next month. 
Tuesday evening a number of 
parishioners called at the parochial 
residence and J. J. Gorman, in behalf 
of the company, presented Fr. Perry, 
the assistant pastor of the Sacred 
Heart church, with a purse of gold 
and a beautiful gold cross. Fr. 
Perry will probably return to Boston 
very shortly, as he came here to assist 
Fr. Powers for the busy season only. 
The presentation Tuesday evening 
showed the favor in which he is held 
by the parishioners here.

The high tides of the latter part of 
last week drove scores of wharf rats 
from their haunts in stone walls along 
the water front, and small armies of 
the rodents ran wildly about. At the 
Beach street park a crusade was waged 
against them and more’than a score 
of the rats were killed with clubs, 
stones, and whatever weapons were at 
hand.

not want to go on the street-railways 
committee, of the senate of 1907. <I
