Singers in Full Dress.

Nearly ninety singers stepped to the

up and in a moment Accompanist Brown
and Director Clymer appeared 10 their
places. The first chorus was "Hark the
Merry Drum, a description Of which ap-

dition of this piece from the start, was
the ensemble; alertness of the singers In
watching Director Clymer and their ac.
curacy in obeying his baton stroke. To
the audience, the time kept by the sing
ers seemed perfect. The fuge passages
were pleasingly sung and the chorus
members manifested much spirit ia this
part Of the rendition. A bad feature Of
this chorus, however, was the work
Of the first tenors in the fortissimo pas

were doing a hard days work and their
high notes were frequently coarse, in
fact, all the singers came out In the
forte passages with a mad rush, that
frequently destroyed all the musical

OMAHA, Neb., Dec 16.-It is believed
that among the crimes for which Frank
Bruce, the well-known thief under ar
rest at Milwaukee, viii be compelled to
answer is the daring diamond robbery
which was perpetrated on the Sioux City
and Pacific express near California June
tion sometime ago. g. w. Pollock, a
New York diamond salesman, was shot,
pounded almost into insensibility and
robbed of $15,O 900 worth Of diamonds in
the presence of dozen passengers
Bruce answers perfectly the description
given of the robber by Omaha men at
the time, and the method employed was
exactly what might be expected OF him.

papers are made out the express people
will reimburse the banks to which the
money was consigned. The packages,
one containing $4,000 and the other
$25, 900, were despoiled while in the

How Young Men OF Modest Incomes
Can Save Money.
From the Neto York Times.

from the NStC Y OTh Tunes
A young man of modest income, but
whose ability to spend money easily out
runs his earning capacity, was talking the
other day of that particular section of do
mestic economy to which the gents fur
nishIng" store caters.
His complaint was more Immediately di-
rooted to the damage which the average
laundry is capable Of inflicting on his neck
wear. New collars after half dozen visits
to the washman came home with the edges
frayed, and so fixed with starch that to
wear them was about as endurable as it
might be to wear a bandsaw, and appar-
emily there was nothing to do but TO throw
them away.
When he proposed doing this "chum'
objected to such extragance. The collars,
he explained, were only half worn out; they
should be returned to the laundry with in>
structions to be done up the other side out,
and with this treatment they would last q
considerable time longer. This advice, of
course, applied only to'the "turn down" coll
lars. There was no remedy, be said for
''sta nd up" collars, but little care in their
selection in the first place would amply re-
pay trouble.
Standing collars, the points OF which are
worn bent over, should be perfectly straight,
the "chum" said-that is, thos having the
points turned over i'll their manufacture
should not be pur chased, for it was an easy
matter to give the straight collar the neces-
sary curve with the fingers before putting it
on, and the result was much more effective
than that obtainable from the store-hxed
article.
