THE sALUTAToRY.

The appearance Of the first Of the young
ladies, and she the second honor lady, nat
urally created quite a ripple through the
audience. Miss Elizabeth T. Stone, of this
bity, was the lady, and "Microcosm" her
theme This rather metaphysical subject
was quite iudiciously handled Tracing the
relations between microcosm and macro-
cosn, she touched upon astrology and fore
ordination, as the natural sequences, The
popular fallacies and the innate truth of
predestinatiOn were logically and forcibly
Illustrated Miss Stone has an easy, grace
full delivery, which added much to the effect
of her essay.
The latter half of the theme was, Of
course, devoted to the formal salutatory.
This old stereotyped greeting is always diff
cult, but she robed it in new garments and
robbed it ofits old failngs The welcomes
we're unique and original-both admirable
qualities Miss Stone truly deserved the
applause and the floral tributes she re-
ceived.
ARE We NrSICAL2
Miss Ha May Marshall, of Fairview, Han
cock county, asked for a theme, "Are We
Musical People?' and answered it in the
affirmative, BY large majority. We are
not music creating people for appreciation
must come first, and it is coming. We
have our taste for music and we have our
Rammelsburg, our Eolf our Palmer our
Whitaker and our Caldwell. and we have a
| land in which scarce home is without its
musical instrument The taste is growing
and the status of the musician is being ele-
waited. Once, to be musician was 10 lose
a certain social caste, but that time has
happily passed and now none is more
honorId, feted, toasted, wined and diued
than the successful musician. Perhaps, in
our own city, musical matters have retro
grade since the days of the Weisrl institu-
tute, but a.change for the better was al
ready perceptible.
Miss Marshall closed her really good and
practical essay by announcing that musical
education should receive governmental sup
port and encouragement, as being study
that eleyates and ennCbles race The sub
ject was handled in an eminently matter Of
fact and terse style, always refreshing at
such occasions.

THE CIVIL SERVICE.

Annual Meeting Of the National Assooia.
tio,,, With an address by George VII.
liam Curtis.
The fourth annual meeting of the National
Civil Service association was held at New York.
George William Curtis delivered the opening
address
Mr.. Curtis gave o lengthy review Of civil
service reform iegislationin congress from the
time the subject first claimed popular attention
until the defeat, ut tho last session. of the bill
to repeal the four-year tenure Of Office act
He then referred to the civil service law passed
by the New York legislature, and enumerated
and explained its provisions. Mr. Curtis high
ly commended the work Of the
present civil service commission.
and praised President Arthur's
course in regard to this branch of government
al reform. The speaker then urged to COM
pletion the repeal of the four-year-law, and
concluded: "Thc greatest and most beneficial
reform in methods of administration which
has ever been proposed in the country, . re-

innate party action, destroying the moral au-
tllorty of elections, demoralizing the public con-
