The week has been no more like its
predecessor than one of Punch's Jokes
is like real humor. 1t has in fact been
dull. There were a few receptions of
note, but nothing in the nature of
general function. 1t is very probable
that things will be quiet-socially speak
ing-until the holidays, and after them,
the deluge. Just now everybody is be-
ginning to think of Christmas. One of
the chief events promised for the last of
December is the Harvard Glee and
Banjo club concert. Lastyear the Yale
boys-I beg their pardon-men were
here, but this will be positively the first
appearance of the Harvard clubs in st.
Paul. The concert occurs at the PeO-
pies church on the 2gth. There are
about forty in the clubs and among them
are two st. Paul bOys-Shepard Stone,
who last year played with the university
of Minnesota glee club, plays Harvard
banjo now, and Sidney L. Farwel is
leader of the Glee club. The lady
patrOnesses OF the affair are Mrs. &. Z.
Young, Mrs. w. r. Merriam, Mrs. c. E.
Flandrau, Mrs. G. E. Furness, Mrs. r.

HRed Riding Hood

The free diSpanSary, that most noble
of charitable institutions, is in need of
money, and the ladies connected with it
have therefore decided to give an ope-
retta in the Grand opera house the 18th
and 18th of December. Christmas is
near at hand. and we feel assured that
the public will feel friendly toward the
enterprise and honor the entertainment
with their presence.
The Operetta will be we'll worth see
ing. 1t will be put on the stage with all
the splendOr and scenic effects neces-
sary for production of this kind. Sing
ers like Miss Ada Hawkins, Miss Kath-
crime O'Leary and others will sing the
principal parts, assisted by a we'll
drilled chorus of childrens' voices. In
the Operetta are several beautiful tab
leauX and fancy dances prepared by
one Of the leading dancingmasters in
the city.
How pleasing it will be, especially for
the little folks. to see this old fairy tale
enacted by a real Red Riding Hood, a
real mother and grandmother, to see
Red Riding Hood enchanted by all the
flowers by the wavside on her way to
see her grandmother, Red Riding
Hoods rescue by the woOdman, the kill
ing of the wolf. Red Riding Hoods re-
turn to her mother and playmates, who
mourn her as dead. The second act is
extremely beautiful, with its flowers,
dances, blue bell chorus aud tableauX.

Death of JoseDh Brown

As narrated by our Flushing CORES
pondent, Joseph Brown, ST., was found
dead on the pike near Flushing at 4
o'clock Monday afternoon. Mr.. Brown
had walked from New Athens to Flush
ing, a distance of four miles. At the
toll-gate he had stopped and talked to
DR.. Webster, who noticed nothing un-
usual in his appearance. Ten minutes
after starting on he was found by the
roadway quite dead.
Mr.. Brown was born in Ireland Decem-
ber 4th, 1910, and was brought to this
county at the age of seven. His early
life was passed near New Athens, and
his latter years near Flushing At the
time of his death he was living with his
son, Mr.. Jacob Brown, at Holloway. His
wife died some ten years ago.
The deceased was wealthy and prom
inent citizen, and was possessed of all
the traits that go to make up a generous
