CORDIAL WELCOME TO THE CHoRAIs-Ry
advertiseme elsewhere it will be seen that a
meeting of the Choral Society is called for the
purpose Of making up their programme for the
coming fail and winter season. The public will
undou bttdly be glad to again welcome these ia
Vorltes, 1.-THE ChOrals." An Institution of such
promise from its very inception should live to
be pride 10 the capital of the nation. Here
IN Washington. are enough amateur yocalists
10 unite IN forming society which will rival
any similar organization in the country The
Chorals have already demonstrated this fact
ana nave now in their possession prize OBJ
famed IN severe struggle with the leading
German societies in the land. To make anna
teur vocal societies successful there are two
essential elements necessary, and these are.
love OF music, and congeniality between mem
bers. The Germans well know this great secret,
and cherish 1t, and their oft-repeated "Ecce
guam bonum" proclaims that there is some
thing beyond the great love for music which
binds them together. Let our Americans take
up the idea, and while losing none of their love
for music, make their rehearsals socially pleas
ant "All work and no play makes Jack a dull
boy" Members lose interest for the reason that
routine business air is thrown around the re-
hearsal, and, instead of a recreation, which
after all, is the true interest of the vocal sOci-
ETY., rehearsals become irksome by oft-repeated
bars of intricate harmOnies. Let the Chorals
take this hint, and in the coming season of re-
hearsals give short space each evening to the
'social, ," and their success will be large.

Is "CORDELIAn A FATHER "a civil suit wa.
instituted last Friday by Edward Long against
Keith Smith for the recovery of $3.50 an
amount of expense the former claims to have
incurred for medical attendance and cost of
burial Of a child, of which he alleges Smith is
the father. Long testified that the child was
placed IN his charge by its grandmother, Mrs
Mulligan, who told him that the mothers name
was Elizabeth Robinson, that he kept il five
months prior TO its death, when, at her request
he called upon Smith to arrange for its burial
Mrs. Long testified that the grandmother of the
baby sent to her to inquire If she would take the
child to raise, informing her that IL was Keith
Smiths baby. She consented to take it, and
when IL got sick she sent to Keith to come and
see 1t, which he did, and acknowledged himself
70 be its father. He requested her TO take good
care Of II; that 1t had been a great expense TO
him, costing him already over $500 He also
desired to have Ii christened Edward Smith
The child grew worse, and she called on Keith
Smith, at the government printing office. and
was told by him that he was busy, and that that
was no place TO see him on such business. She
then wrote TO him for means, and received an
insulting reply, which was now in the hands OF
Superintendent Clapp, Of the government print
ing office. After other witnesses were heard
corrOborative OF the former oaes, Mr.. Miller
counsel for Smith, took exceptions to the
amount claimed for medical attendance, as
nothing had been proved showing that Smith
ordered such attendance. The justice reserved
his decision.
Keith Smith, in a published statement, de-
mics the whole charge, and says he Is not
father, and has never been, and any statement
to that effect il false.
