she was yet attending school in Winona,
and after having finished the course in
the high school there, she was persuad-
ed to devote a year to the study of elo-
cution, under an accomplished teacher
in Chicago. The result was that her
performances at private gatherings ex-
cited such general admiration that she
was finally induced to give a public ex-
hibition of her powers. This was so
entirely satisfactorily that she has since
been called upon frequently and in
every instance her success has been un-
questioned. The press and the people
everywhere, on hearing her, have united
in commencing her very highly as a
most entertaining and pleasing reader.
Her repertoire is said to contain an
agreeable variety Of tragic, sentimental
and humorous compositions. She ap-
pears here in response to an invitation
extended by Mayor sterrett, and the
proceeds of her entertainment will be
devoted to the organ fund of the Episco-
pal church, thus giving our citizens op-
portunity to contribute to a worthy
object and, at the same time, enjoy an
interesting and instructive entertain
ment. We hope there will be a large
attendance.

BUSINESS FAILURES OF THE PERIOD.

One of the most amusing places to visit in
these times of business depression is meet
ing of creditors" of one of the firms that have
| suspended payment.
If you one of the creditors you have the
honor to receive an invitation to attend the
in 1t they usually request the pleasure of your
company at such day and hour, at their own
lawyers office. Perhaps You swear little
when you read it, which is naughty. II too
good to do that, you swear mentally, (but
have heard some swear openly and call the
firm bad names), and at last you decide to ac-
cept the invitation.
On arriving at the meeting you find a
mixed assemblage, about half smoking and
most of them in the best humor but there
are few sour creditors, who have old fogy
notions of right and wrong. One of the cred
itors, perhaps only on paper, jumps up and
says II nominate Mr.. Jones as chairman"
If it is CROOKED" failure, it is generally
friend of the firm. The motion is seconded
and carried. Secretary nominated, motion
seconded and carried. Everything is "carried"
at meeting. motion is never negatived.
Meeting organized, hats come off
Some one moves that o statement of liabiIi-
ties and assets be read. Statement generally
readsisomething like this: Liabilities abont
$50, 900, stock on hand about $12 900, present
value $4,000, bills bad, $4,000" Firm offer 80
cents at six, twelve and eighteen months. Up
jump one of the old fogy creditors and wishes
meant by saying to him month ago that he
had $4,000 stock and only owed thirty thou
sand.
Mr. Smith replies in q bland voice that "the
gentleman who last spoke must have misun-
derstood the tenor of his remarks at the time
he mentions"

gathering, the speaking was all distinctly
national throughout. Professor Galbraitb, in
speaking of Mr.. p. J. Smyth, the renegade
Home Ruler, as " the sour crab" which the

Its fruit, gave that gentleman u name which is
likely to stick. MIR. IgnAtius Kennedy, who
was chairman of the Finance Sub Committee

the Centenary Committee all the gold medals
the Centenary surplus could supply. Mr. A.
III. Sullivan's speech have heard described ss
by far the best of the evening. It was spoken
in response to the toast of "The originators of
the Grattan Monument" and how sHRropriate
it was to connect his name with seah q senti
nent will be apparent from the facts mention
ed in my last letter-that he originated the
statue fund, that he was by far the largest sub
scriber, contributing nearly a fifth of the en-
tire cost, and that he rescued the noble site on
College Green from being polluted by statue
of Prince Albert (the Queens husband) thus
securing it for the statue of the only man
whose figure shonld adorn it. There are now
three splendid statues in College Green-those
of Grattan, Burke and Goldsmith. All are by
Foley, and to see them would be in itself An
adequate motive for the lover of art to pay
Dublin a visit The latest erected is not only
an ornament to the place in which it is stu
ated, but is and will continue to be most elo-
quent exhortation to virtuous and patriotic
conduct. 1t remains but to add that the Irish
in London celebrated the day, too, by banquet
at which presided DR.. Ward, II. P. for Galway. |
