A DELIGHTFUL EVENING.

One of the delights of the season was the
musical given by Prof Seals last FRIDAY
evening at their pretty home on Mountain
View Ave. 1t was complimentary to Miss
Mccoy, one of Birminghanl's charming
bellies. The spacious reception hall and
parlor were filed with appreciative guests
who were charmed and held in wrapt at.
tsntion, as the various pieces were given
with such fine artistic rendering.
But nature and art and wonderful talent
and naivete and the born actor" were all
brought out most delightfully."-. in Master
Henry Wyatt's singing and acting for he
seemed to sing all over and clear to the
end of his little four year>old fingers and
toes In response to an enthusiastic en-
core he sang "Old Time Religion" in a
most inimitable, humorous and charming
manner. The full measure of delight in
this little charmes can be better appreciat-
ed when we realize that he is the only
grand>chiid, nephew and baby boy.
There were solos, duets and quartettes,
and the piano accompanying the very rich

their son, Claude.

reminded of

Never did the piano seem SO almost hui
man, as when under the skillful aud dell-
cate touch of Miss Mccoy. At times the
tones were almost inaudible, yet clearly
and tenderly expressive. There was
strength and decision without suspicion
of mere crude sound. AS one watched the
fair performer, she seemed wholly lost in
the sweet notes as If "commingling with

Value Of Good Roads.

A. A. Pope in the Forum.
Bad roads force people to live in cities: good
roads tend to take them out into the country.
This observation reveals its force perhaps more
strikingly when read in view of the facts of
railroad development. to which the especial at
tention Of the American people has been given
during the past forty years. The railroads
have centralized the population in the cities
and larger towns, and arranged them along
their lines Of communication. Now what is
needed 10 an equal development OF Carriage
roads to broaden the areas Of population and
to relieve this congestion.
Railroads need better carriage roads for
feeders; farmers need them for access to the
railroads and to the cities; manufsct urers need
them for access to less populous areas and for
lower rents and for less cost Of portage and
transportation; merchants need them a. an
element in the cheapening Of their wares the
people need them for the reduction of the ex-
pense of satisfying their wants and for the more
efficient distribution of their activities
