Academy Airings.

The program given by the Academ,
on Friday night was fair success. Th'
storm prevented many country people
from coming in who would otherwise
have done so. The receipts were S26.25
which with the income from the Other
entertainments foots up S57. 80. paying
the freight bill of $3.50 and $40 on the
organ.
THE PROGRAM.
Too good words cannot be said for the
singing in the two choruses given by
the school. They were we'll chosen
and well rendered. The opening quar-
tet, "Voices of the Night" is a fine
piece but was not rendered as well as it
deserved. Mr.. Overman's rendering of
Darius Green" was enjoyable but would
have been better had he been more free
and careless. "What Robin told me-"
by Johnny Crooks, was cute. The
Spring exercise was made especially
sweet by the little April shower of tears
from the long brown lashes of Jessie
Havernick. Her soft, trembling voice
was clear as a silver bell. The audience
were clearly in love with her. Mr..
Weeks rendering of the bass solo, "The
Brave Old OAK" by Gilbert was treat.
Sida Gordon made good impression
with "The Ghost" Willie Maxey's
Speech" in which the school joined
with couple of mob songs, "Cocache-
lunk" and MARY lad little Lamb"
was well received. "a song of Degree"
showing what boy and girl think of
each other at ten, at twenty and ten
years after marriage, was good. Farm,
however, runs his words together too
much to be well understood. Eva Dun
ham had pleasant piece entitled
Spring" She spoke too fast. Glover's
What are the Wild Waves Saying?"
was well rendered by Edith Clark and
l.. L. Weeks. Maggie McCallie spoiled
the effect of Crock of Ages Cleft for
Me" by constantly smiling. Annie
Maxey, who has COME to be local ce-
lebrity. read "Miss Edith Helps Things
Along" Uncle Dan'Ps Introduction to
a 2, Mississippi Steamer" was read by
Earl Mclean. A general verdict of
Guilty of doing well' was pronounced
on Hughey McCallie in "Grandma Al'as
Does" "Wind Songs" was given by
Farm Mclean. Bert Pearson is one of
the boys who always does better in the
race than while speeding" a spiri-
ted recitation entitled "Wanted." Mary
Maxey rendered "Curfew Must not Ring
Tonight" In Glow We Hunted a
Mouse" Maggie McCalie retrieved her
laurels. That splendid bass solo from
Mozart, "Who Treads the Path Of Duty"
was rendered by Prof. L. 4. Weeks.
The last and best thing of all was jim
mie White in "Nebuchadnezzah. "There
is probably not boy of his age in Ida
no who could have equaled him. His
strong, clear voice could be heard easily
in all parts of the hall, and he waited
patiently for the storms of applause to
subside and was ready every time to go
on, and when he finished he was cheer
ed to the echo.
The prize of five dollars worth of
books offered to the student showing
the best scholarship in the Academy
was divided between Charlie Dunham
and Frank r. Pearson, each having a
standing of So. MIR. Schmadeka's prize
of $3.50 offered in the primary. was won
by Annie Maxey.

THR Wickersham, or Pillowsham Sc
duction case, as 1t has been dubbed, Is q
nasty morsel for unclean tongues to roll
around in unclean mouths. James Wick
ersham, prominent Tacoma politician,
Il being tried at Seattle for the seduction
Of Sadie Brantner. Wickersham claimed,
and tried to prove, that the suit was insti-
gated by Radebaugh, Of the Tacoma Led0-
sr, for political purposes, and endeavored to
show by witnesses that Radebaugh him
self was criminally intimate with the
aforesaid Sadie. The case has brought
many prominent percentages unenviably
before the public. The Sound papers,
with modest disclaimer, publish all Of the
filthy details which at times have reached
q dramatic climax. Two witnesses were
fined, one committed to jail, and the
keeper Of an designation house testi-
fed that hundreds Of Tacoma ladies
have visited his place. The case is foul
as foul can be, and those who have wal
lowed In the mire or those who have been
pushed therein will be besmirched. The
jury brought in 4 verdict Of guilty, and
Wickersham was arrested for Subornation
Of perjury.
