dience at the library entertainment

everyone who enjoys the many benefits of
the public library should give their mite
towards the construction of a new build

pretty indeed. Prof. Hutchinson ex-
celled himself, and Mrs. Brewster demon
strated anew her popularity as a %soloist.
Mrs. Tisdale is beyond a doubt at the
head OF her profession. Her rendition of
Gabriel Grub" was perfect. The laugh
ter and confused calling of the COLLINS
sounding neal and then echoing away
through the grave yard was real enough
to give one the shIvers. Vashti's De-
tense was a marvel of Persian pathos and
beauty. while Interpretations Of Poetic
Ideals carried way the audience
Thursday evening the ladies of the
Baptist church gave a Nightcap sociable.
Twenty-Five cents secured a gentleman a
night cap which must be worn. and when
he found a lady with a cap to match she
was his affinity for the evening. Mr..
Preston, a gay Young delegate to the
convention from Lander paid 81 rather
than wear a cap. Perhaps he isn't look
ing in Cheyenne for his affinity.
The same evening the young people Of
the Presbyterian church had a sociable.
A programme was rendered, including
Two solos by Mr.. McCandlish of Buffalo.
Afterwards progressive conversation was
the order of the evening and everybody
enjoyed himself to the fullest extent.

prettyfeature o the evening was the bring
