guished the remaining three evenings
On Thursday evening the fancy drill
by the boys and girls, under the com
mand of j. F.. Henderson, was give 1
and was greatly enjoyed by the larg'
audience that witnessed il. Tit
young people had been drilled in al
but Is hours and the precision anC
accuracy with which they wen
through the numerous and difficult
evOlutiOns testified equally 10 theil
close attention and hard work, and t
the skill and patience of their trainer
On Friday Capt. Slower showed tht
stereOpticon views to a delightful
audience and the drill was repeated
On Saturday evening a musical and
literary program, under the direction:
of Misses Lola SmeltZer, Clara Welch
and Beulah Reimert, was given TO the
largest audience that assembled dur
ing the week. 1t is perhaps not t.
much to say that this program was
the most entertaining one and the
most appreciated of any during the
entire week. The audience surely ell
joyed it for, nearly every number was
encored. Miss Maude Richards piano
sOlO,-the first that lola has heard
since she graduated from the Boston
conservatOry-wasg greeted with per-
feet storm of applause, plainly show
ing how thoroughly her home friends
appreciated the perfection as pianist
to which Miss Richards has attained
by the studious development of her
remarkable talent. Ralph Richards
has reason. also, to be proud of the
reception given his reading by the
people of his old home. His style is
certainly original and while those who
prefer a different school might suggest
criticism vet no one will deny that it
is entertaining to the last degree. The
girls were of the opinion that it was
worth the price of admission just to
look at Ralph for ten minutes, even if
he said nothing. But that "has moth
ing to do with the story Concern
ing Miss SmeltZer's singing, Miss
Welch's recitation and Miss Reimert's
playing nothing need be said, for the
young ladies are all lola favorites and
that they justified anew the partiality
that has been always shown them
goes without. saying. Taken alto
gether thu program was surely an
excellent one and received no end of
good words from those who heard it.
After it was over the ladies of W. X.
c. served oysters las they had done
also Thursday and Friday and the
people enjoyed themselves socially
until l. o'clock, when all hailed the
New Year. And holiday week was
over. The net proceeds to the Post
were about so.

and be on hand at the opening session
of the Legislature which will convene
next Tuesday. 1t is not likely that
Republican will be given much of an
to distinguish himself in
a State Senate controlled so over
whelmingly by the Populists as this
one will be,-and it is entirely posi-
BILE that this particular Republican
may not even be allowed to hold his
seat. But to the extent that OppOrtu-
nifty is given, or can be made, and for
so long a time as he may be permitted
to stay, he expects to work faithfully
for what he conceives to be the best
interests Of his constituents and of the
state generally. And he wishes es-
pecially to place his services at the
of the people of this District.
If any of them are in Topeka during
the session he hopes they will not fail
to call upon him. And if any desire
to address him concerning any matter,
Of either public or personal interest,
their letters shall have prompt atten-
ton.
The Christian EndeavOr Convention
held here last week was pronounced

present and the church was well filled

interesting, the former be-
ing addressed by Rev. Christy, of TT. !
Scott. and the latter by Rev. :. g. |
Clarke, formerly pastor of the Pres
byterian church here, now of Yates
Center. 30 much interest was awak |
aned by the meetings that the local |
societies have continued to hold pray
er meetings each evening during the
week, in connection with the Week of
Prayer services, and the most encour-
aging results have been realized.
