MIR Armar and Isabella wander off to-
gether; Miss B, the eldest daughter
OF the house, went clipping at the rose
trees with a basket on her arm. Some
soft vapours were beginning to float
hlther and thither in the gardens; a dim
veil seemed to fall upon us from the
solemn depths of the great vault over
head. There was a great calm and
sense OF ease in this placid hour, passing
by to the sound of the flowing river. All
the vivid feelings and emotions of the
day began to fade imperceptibly; sort
OF solitude came to each one of us wan
derlng hither and thither in the calm
evening. Where do people 60 to when
the evenings tall? and why do we each
begin to feel more alone than at any
other time? There are as many people
in the world at eventide as at morning.
but our hearts grow quieter for while,
our fancies ana feelings leave us in
peace. The day is over and we are
making ready for the night.
So the dusk had come, the sun had
set, and the shadows were gathering in
the garden, and the lights from the house
alread y cast yellow CLEANS across the
grass. The rose-Walk was still in the
day, but the lawn and the laurel
grove were in the night, Armar and
Isabella went wandering between the
laurel hedges in the shadow and in 81
lence; all huShtd, and fading lights.
The yellow West was dying, the battle
was Swaying still between the armies of
the rising winds and the tossing vapours;
sometimes with one side, sometimes with
the other, and the victory seemed to lie.
The winds, with one great effort, would
drive away the clouds, and once more
the dying lights would flood the world
with last farewells then the clouds 81
lenly spreading would veil the lights as
thew burnt on in the track of the great
conAagration. And when at last the
lights began to pass away: pink roses
turned white, the leaves grey and black,
the trees were silent. | was walking by

company at first, had just gone IN (he

hear the tones of Armar's voice; 1t
sounded deep and almost like distant
chord Of music.

was no stiffness or restraint connected
with the affair. Members Of the Junior
class welcomed the guests in the large
double parlors, introduced them to the
ssniorssnd bytheir charming gmsnneraput
everyone atesss at once, There was music,
vocal and instrumental, in the parlors, the
corridors were filled all the evening with
gay promenaders and in the parlOrs and
the large achool room were to be found
groups Of people thoroughly enjoying
themselves, Prof. Brown, the popular
President OF the College, was busy all the
time assisting TO maze the evening q

flowers that added much to the attractive.

treshments were served by Aiegenieldsr

This was the first event in the nature OF

taken place at the College since Prof.
Brown took charge, and 1t was so enjoya.

The Professor is nearing the close Of his
frat year at the College, and he has good
reason to bs proud OF the work that he
has accomplished. The attendance is al.
most double what 1t was last year, and
the prospects for next year are
very tlattering. A number OF citizens
have declared their intention Of sending
their daughters to school there next year.
