tearing along at the TOP of their speed. and

Mrs. Lee Hayes entertained apleasant
company composed of Prof. Sickner's music
class and other music-loving people last
evening. The occasion being semi-monthiy
recital by members of the class. These en-
tertainments are most enjoyable and We are
glad the Prof. has decided TO make them
permanent feature of his class work. The
piano solo performed by Mile Hayes was
very fine, showing much taste and express
sion for one so young. Sharwenkas Polish
Dance. where great precision in chords AND
A delicate touch is required, was neatly per-
formed by Mable Lsrimer. The quaint old
melody BY Boccherini was very artisticaily
performed by Miss Cora Miller. Miss
Changers piano solo, also the one by Miss
Beatrice Thomas were very nicely executed.
Violin solos, Cradle song and Morning song
performed BY Mr.. G. n. Parsons were very
smoothly executed. The closing overture
was ar.is,icslly performed by Mrs. Bunneii

IIFe's VOLUME.
There are some things of which We are

There are some things of which We are not
The phantoms of uncertainty arise,
Between us and the pages daily turned
OF that mysterious volume men call Lie
There are some things Of which We arc not
Though sunshine gid the limos at early
dawn
And We. lipht-hearted, scan the written page,
Eve eyentide the record may grow dim
With unavailiDg tears, and vain regrets
Tn that mysterious volume men call Life.
There are some things of which we are not
sure,
We can but read the page as revealed
A stronger hand than ours must break the
seals
Of that mysterious volume men call Life
There is one thing of which We may be sure,
Sometime the record, be it e'er 30 fair,
Will reach the final leaf and there reveal
That sacred word an unseen hand hath
traced,
OF Finis-christened Desth-the end
OF that mysterious volume men call Lille.
IT, then. of this one thing we may be sure,
Why are We prone 10 lightly turn the leaves,
While all unnoticed lie the deeper truths
OF that mysterious volume men call Lifes
IT, then, of this one thing We may be sure,
Should we not strive to patiently discern
The hidden meanings waiting for US all.
| Who seek to know what shall bstide the
soul
When il hath laid aside forevermore,
That strange, mysterious volume men cal
Life?
OF this one truth may we not still be sure
That much depends upon the way we use
The secrets gained by long and eager search
Though that mysterious volume men cal
Life,
For only as we wisely understand,
Can we gain heights to fully comprehend
That grander volume where immortal eye
Scan records reaching through eternity, =.
When we have passed the fms and lAi'
down
That strange, mysterious volume men cal
Life.

LECTURE AT THE BAPTIST CHURCH

Professor Rosedale lectured again at Iii
Baptist church last night and made q some
what disiointed and rambling dissertation on
religion. His general denuncistory remarks
were, to say the least, little intolerant, but
his lecture was full of good things all the
same. Of one thing he is certainly tolerent,
that is the Jews. One he is not tolerent OF,
spiritualism. Neither is he tolerent OF pre-
tense in religion. His explanation OF proph-
estes on the return of the Children of Israel
to the Holy Land was ably set forth, and
plain enough to be understood. he does
not appear to be So much of q foreigner rs
his talk might imply, rs his use If the COM
mon parInnce of the day is quite noticeable.
but his knowledge of the Bible and the per-
feet knowledge of the Holy Land is great
and must cost him many years OF learn
ed research. While his lecture contained
much to Jar on our sens,bilities it also con-
tanned food for deep reflection.
He repeats his lecture ut the church mex
Friday night and breaches at the Methods
and Baptist churches to-day.

Mr.. and Mrs. Lafayette Simpson buried
their little infant daughter Julia E. yester-
day afternoon. The little bud Of promise
which was the light of the home was only
the evening previous smiling back its love
to the faces of the anxious parents but three
or four brief hours Its pure spirit was e1-
hailed like the dews of the morning and the
earthly casket, bereft of its living jewel, was
laid away mid tears but the everything as
surance that 'it is well with the little one"

ANOTHER POISONING CASE.

George w. Smith, the male proprietor of
of the establishment known as the "Red
Light" took cold pizen about o'clock yes
terday evening. A messenger with fast
horse flew after DR.. Davis who hastened to
the rescue, pumped him out and admins
tered medicine.
An EAGLE reporter visited the mansion in
search of particulars at last evening but
particulars were hard to gather as the girls
were instructed to give nothing away. A
male visitor however told all he knew,
which was nothing more than George had
taken poison and was very sick, but he
could not learn what kind of stuff he took.
One of the girls was induced to
talk, just the least bit, on the
subject but she didn't know much about the
affair only that he had taken the poison,
presumably on account Of the late family
eruptions an account of which was given in
the EAGLE the past two days, which was to
the effect that the female half of the firm had
filed divorce papers and asked that the male
section be placed under bonds TO keep the
peace towards her. The girl said the doctor
first thought he would die, but at this time
he was much better and it was thought he
would pull through this trip. Further than
this the girl knew no; and the news grabber
skipped out. The domestic relations Of the
Smiths have been badly mixed for some time
and the madam complained that her royal
spouse had been behaving badly, therefore
she determined TO bust the marital chains
asunder. She had him placed under $500
bonds to keep the peace, day before yester-
day, but she came into court Yesterday
morning and intimated he was no Longer
dangerous and asked thst he be released
Now whether they had fresh racket oil
whether remorse for past offenses prompted
him in the attempt to mske himself the sub
iect of funeral procession, can only be
climed up to by the philosophy of J. n.

Although it was considerable, yet for Satur-

cents for new. These figures are better than
Chicago prices, which are 10 cents lower.
