Thinking the bird was merely rest

picked up soft wooden couch cover

advanced into the room shaking the
couch cover and attempting, after the

away.

The entertainment and reception
given last light in the Blue room of
the city hall under the auspices of
Artesian Tent No. 6. to the supreme
officers of the Knights of the Macca-
bees was an enjoyable affair aud a
grand success in every particular.
The performance was commenced by
the rendition of a muiscal selection,
by Mr.. Arthur Love on the violin &C.
companied by Mrs. Love on the piano,
entitled "The Mocking Bird" which
was executed with variations, in a
style peculiar to and original with the
performer and to the delight of the
audience.
Next on the programme was an ad-
dress Of welcome by Mayor G. G. Nc.
Culloch, who, in a short speech, ten
dered to the distinguished visitors the
keys Of the city and bespoke for them
hearty welcome by her citizens.
Mr.. F. P. Cravens was next intro.

come to the supreme officers of the
Knights of the Maccabees in its be.
half. The speaker continued in a
humorous strain which not only i'm
unused but edited all present. He
spoke of the boundless resources of
Texas and extended again a hearty
welcome to the distinguished "Michi.
gander" for Waco which with little
country tributary to it is Texas"
Texas went so far to show visitors
of other states her resources that she
sent badger to the badger state itself
and presented to certain mayor of a
certain city of Michigan, which, ac.
cordlng to the statement of this mayor,
so hoodooed the people of his city
that they reelected him mayor.
Next was a song by little Miss
Nina Love, entitled, "Don't You
Believe 1t, Dear Boys" which was
one of the most enjoyable features OF
the entertainment. During the
rendition of this beautiful song all
was attention and every information Of
the voice of the fair little vocalis,
could be distinctly heard, and at its
conclusion the applause was deafening
and continued till Miss Nina again
appeared upon the stage with ar
encore entitled, "Oh The Boys
Little Miss Nina has, perhaps, not al
equal in the state, for one of her age
as to sweetness of voice, force, ex
preston and control as a vocalist
and if not subjected to too great ,

to take an enviable stand among the
renowned stars of national reputation
