BIRD cAHrATA" A SUPERB SUCCESS.

The programme last night was I'M
der the supervision of Mrs. Greason,
assisted by the following members of
the subcommittee: Mrs. w. w. Mar
tin, Mrs. NJ. Leipman and Mrs. Wes-
tervelt.
The demand for reserved seats was
SO great that before dark the board
was removed from Patterson's.
The opera house was packed from
pit to dome.
The overture by the orchestra was
fine indeed, and in fact no finer orches-
trail music has to our knowledge ever
been rendered i'm our city. The play
consisted of bird fairy cantata, max
ing a charade which wewere not sharp
enough to guess. The plumage Of the
birds and the costumes Of the fairies,
was sight for an artist.
The fairies were represented by the
sweet little girls of our city, the divis-
ions being led by Miss - Popkess
and Miss Nellie Stadden. The march
was intricate, and the space allowed
scarce sufficient, but it was gone
through with to perfection.

Lightning struck the telephone wire

Near the Opera House it cut out a

as if it had been put under blow pipe.
Owing perhaps to the extremely
warm weather, the Presbyterian festi-
val at the Opera House was not very
largely attended. Those who were
there, however. found plenty of enter
tainment as the refreshments were ell
egapt and the music very good. Solos

and a duet by Misses Mabel Clark and

resolved.

Ii seems that a certain business man,
birthday anniversary came off several day,
ago and lady friend of his, in a spirit OF
triendhness and courtesy had an elsboratr
basket of flowers made and sent to him witb
her compliments. But, sad to say, there ar
alwaIs some people who mistake merel,
friendly motives, and this mans wife SD
pears to be one Of this sort, for she imms
distel y defined the present as being one to
WOO the affections OF her husband from her
ard she sent the flowers back.
The donor of the present thought there
was some misunderstanding but was limo.
cent as to the real cause of the wife's action
and returned the flowers. This fred up an
inteuse spirit of jealousy in the wife of the
innocent cause ofthe trouble, and she armed
herself with the flowers and revolver and
returned the present in person, determined
that her husband should not receive them.
and the romance gave promise of turning in
20 a tragedy However fortunately it did
not, and the lady kept the returned flowers
and dismissed the jealous woman without
ceremony. Thus the matter rests at pres.
