The entertainment given for tn
benefit of the public school Wednes
day night was fairly attended, and a
had an enjoyable evening. Th
/, speeches and dialogues by the pupil
= were well rendered, and the charade
by Misses Mamie Mcclure and Lizzi
g Madison and Messrs. +. NJ. Dick an
. st. Elmo King afforded much amust
i ment. The songs by Misses Mar
a Grisler and Lucy Shannon were beau
= tiful. The cornet band, though onl
n half represented, rendered valuabl
: assistance with their choice selet
G lions. This entertainment was give
because the one on the 22d Of Februi
ry was not a financial success on az
count of the bad weather.
