brief RehAshes u Gsssip and Other
Matters Heard Discussed n Matiy
Quarters Of Msrgantewn.
A. lady on Spruce street who had
a handsome table cloth stained by
fruit, was told by neighbor to let
it stay on the line all night and the
stains would disappear. She did SO
and the next morning cloth and
stains we're both gone, which only
proves that the neighbor was very
truthful.

just at the present time there is
an unusual array of musical talent
in our little city, and at no time
could concert company be organ
ICED for the especial delectation of a
home audience be more propitious
than the present. The scheme to
arrange a concert for the Johnstown
sufferers is now back number. but
we all would like to hear good
concert simply for the sake of
hearing it, if no more worthy motive
be there to bring it about. We have
with us now Mrs. E. B. Silverthorne,
Miss Sarah d. Roemer and Miss
Alice Altman who, with our many
home instrumental and vocal artists,
would compose the dromatis personae
to produce with great credit some of
the most difficult operas extant.-
The lovers of music of Morgantown
should not allow this opportunity to
pass unheeded for one of the richest
musical treats and one that would
please the most fastidious, cultured,
critical; artistic musical tastes
There has not been for many, many
months an exclusively musical affair
given here, and l do hope some of
the young bloods will stir their
stumps to naturalization of the
fancy herein exposed.

The average Morgantown swain is
making his white alley in good and
gallant shape now. The Institute
girls 1.-THE boys tell me this, I'm too
old to pay any attention., are the
perfect ideals of their fanciful i'm
aginations of what royal good girls
should be, and they have entered the
social galaxy among these fair peda-
gogues and each has seemed to have
found the particular constellation
that is shedding the light Of spring
love into his soul. In few cases.
however, it may prove to be the sort
of affection that will stand firm
against the attacks of winters
gaiety in other fields of fair faces,
but such are few, I'm afraid, as most
of the Institute girls are more we'd
ded to their profession than they
ever will be to Morgantown boy;
l don't mean to say they wont be
welded some place else. But the
Institute girl is the proper caper for
the Morgantown boy and it's vice
versa game, so you see there's lots
of fun here

When a girl holds her breath
moment and then says sweetly, "Oh,
no, smoking is not at all disagreed
BILE to me, Charlie" you may be sure
Charlie is not at all disagreeable to
her, whether smoking is or not.
Yes, the girl will nearly choke, and
the cigar or cigarette is nearly death
to her, but she is too much afraid of
Charlie angry to tell him
the smoke is disagreeahle and so
grins and bears it. I do love a girl
that will come fight out and say II
hate the smell of smoke" That girl
has sense above the avefage in this
degenerate day. There are few
fellows in Morgantown who will not
smoke in the presence of lady, but
truly they are few. No heightened
girl likes smoke, if she does say it is
not offensive and since ] say so adj
visedly l would admonish all young
men to reserve their weeds for the
of their own quarters.

1t is reported that prominent
lawyer of this place who is strong
anti-license man gave it as his opin-
ion few days ago that license was
an improvement over the dives. He
further said that on the day the cir
Gus exhibited here he expected to
see the town full of drunken men,
but not one was in sight The H.
cense men regard this declaration
with much satisfaction, coming from
the source it did.
