she is to give.
A first class program has been pre-
pared for the concert next Monday
night and everyone should come and
hear it.
There is strong talk of a college
annual being published next COM
mencement by the students. It seems
to us that this would be a wise move
as it would be asplendid advertisement
for the school.
The chemistry classes completed
their work for the year yesterday and
were examined today. Most of the

as many happy hours have been spent
by them in the laboratory.

Prof. Kinsey has been very sick for
some time but he is better today and
we hope that he will soon be about
again.
The tennis enthusiasts put up the net
yesterday and a close and interesting
set, requiring sixteen games to decide,
was played. January wa the only
month of the past year in which we did
not play tennis. How is this for the
Hot Springs climate?
President Hancher left last night for
Newcastle where he will ask, with his
usual success we hope, for a share of
the lucre of that city.
We noticed a strange sight the other
day which was a splendid example of
capillary attraction. The aforesaid
sight was Mr.. E. w. following a small

A "lucky seven' of the boys put their

their pocketbooks, and the result was
a royal feast last night. Only the elite

The coasting is probably spoiled for

a stronger proof of that is wanted than
that tennis game, you have only to cast

are convinced.

The Fire Department of Norfolk
has record of which all who have
ever been connected with it may
feel proud. Until recently the de

but III spite of this fact millions of

The want of proper appliances
has frequently called for acts of
the greatest GOODNESS aud courage on
the part of the fire fighters. There
are many individual acts which de
serve place in history. The city

"Ill tell you, Frank, its got to the point
where something must be done" said Mrs.
Burnett, and as she spoke she raped at the
small knuckles that were moving towards
the sugar bowl. Morton, aged 8, ierked
his hand out Of the way and laughed at his
mother, who pursed up her lips to conceal
a smile.
"Don't do that, Norton said Mr..
Burnett. Then, turning to his wife, he
asked. "What have they been doing
now?'
THAT boy and some more of his crowd
put tin cans along the top of the fence and
then threw at them to knock them off.
About every other stone went over the top
OF the fence and went sailing across our
back yard. If one of them had struck any
body, he wouldn't have known what hurt
him.
What did you do?'

WOMEN AND WATERLOO.
What one of the Fair Sex Remembered
of the WOrld-FamOuS Battle.

SIN my early days | knew lady who
happened to e in Brussels that memora-
bic June said Mrs. Newton Grassland
to the New York Commercial Advertiser
man. ''She was then newly married only
% years of age. So little certain of VIC
tory did the English Oh the spot feel that
her husband insisted on her dressing like
Normandy peasant, thinking such costume
would be protection.
Nividly have | heard her describe the
scene she witnessed at the door of the hotel
where she was staying and the despair
of wives who were left behind-wives soon
to be widows.
Very graphically, too, did she describe
the next days events, when women many
OF whom, too agitated to change their at
tire, were still elegantly dressed-made
their way somehow to the field Of battle
returning in the army wagons, supporting
the heads of the wounded on their knees,
bathing their brows and binding up their
wounds, while steady rain poured down
on the faces begrimmed by powder, which
yet allowed their palor to be seen.
81 once met at dinner party the widow
of an Officer forget the name-who
fought at Waterloo, and the lady narrated
her experience of the after battle scene.
For some reason she had to Cross the field
of Waterloo, which was still strewn with
the dead and for this purpose she was
blindfolded and placed on horseback, the
steed being led by a trooper.
she held handkerchief to her nose
stepped, think she said, with vinegar and
and not until she had reached an ACTIVITY
nearly mile from the scene of carnage
was the bandage removed from her eyes.
Then she looked back. The field of Water

for the bodies were all stripped of clothing
and shone white in the sunshine like stones.

Larry.
You'll do nothing of the kind" ex-
claim d his mother. Don't you re
member the talking to | gave YOU the
other time you had that fight with
him?''
Lawrence remembered the mild rebuke
and his inward resolution was not changed
Tom Deakin went for his pipe, oppressed
with the thought that he had been very
unlucky in his selection of neighbors.
These complaints had come to him day
after day from the downtrodden members
of his family.
The feud had grown from thousand
aggravating circumstances.
Suppose Morton Burnett to be on the
fence. His mother would open the back
door and say loudly enough to make her
self heard through the open windows of
the Deakin house: 'Morty, get down
from that fence! Haven't told you about
that?'
Mrs Deakin would hear and understand.
Then she would wait her opportunity to
appear on the back stoop and retaliate.
In summer time, when both women were
out of doors much of the time, they occas-
ionally exchanged glances which were
more significant than anything they could
have said.
When Mrs. Burnett put out her washing
she knew that Mrs. Deakin was Watching
| her and counting the number of pillow
| slips and tabecloths.
When Mrs Burnett came to the back
door and called out, Come, Alice, dear,
and practice your music lesson" it was
equivalent to saying to Mrs. Deakin,
AHA, we have cottage organ in our
house, but you haven't any in yours
Mrs. Deakin had frequently informed
Tom that the Burnett organ was cheap
second hand thing.
