Lecture on Shakespeare.

In the rush and hustle of re-
porting legislative proceedings
it is almost impossible to keep
the current run of events, and
thus the Shakespearian lecture
of Attorney General Davenport
passed unnoticed. In the lecture
regarding the genius and in
spiration of the Bard Of Avon
the audience was pleasingIy en-
tertained for some twenty min
utes, after which some of the
gems of the great poet were
given in the form of recitations.
1t is safe to say that the au-
dience did not come prepared
for such finished work as was
given in Hamlet's soliloquy, the
scene between WoIsey and
and Cromwell and the stirring
dramatic force in Ahthony's
Grafton over the body of Caesar.
Few professionals have visited
Carson who can surpass General
Davenport in these Rotations.
Ex-Governor Kinkead presided.
The rest of the programme was
pleasingly rendered.

Tho Bride OF IA Dny

Only few months ago George Porteous
OF this city went to Canada TO marry Miss
Sutton, TO whom he had been engaged for
some time. lie remained there for time.
His friends waited with no lit le wonder at
the delay TO hear that the ceremony had
been performed. No word came, however,
and TO the surprise of all, when Mt last the
groem elect did return, he brought with
him the sister Of the lady TO whom he had
been engaged, aud for whose hand he had
gone TO the Dominion. IL seecms that
when Mr. Porteous reached the home of his
iiance another had come between them.
She had met and learned 10 love
an actor and promised TO be-.
come his wife. This Mr.. Porteous
learned when she had refused
HIM her hand and given him his liberty,
He then found out that his affections had
transferred itself TO Miss Sutton's sister,
and forthwith he wocd and won her, re.
turning In triumph with bride. The
young lady TO whom Mr.. Porteous first in.
trusted his heart, no. longer icttered with
a betrothal, then gave her heart 10 John
Gilbert, OF the Minnie Palmer company.
This fact was not known TO the wife OF Mr..
Porteous, however, and for several weeks
she had been expecting n visit from her
sister. When two days ago the news sfthe
terrible calamity at Milwaukee was flashed
over the wires, Mrs. Porteous was struck by
the name Of Mrs. John Gilbert among the
victims, and an investigation proved the
sad facts too true. Her only sister, the
bride OF ono night was burned In the fear
