MUSIC AND DRAMA.

The story OF ..sThe Girl Left Behind
Me" tells the attempt OF cowardy
rascal, Lieutenant Morton Parlow, sta
toned at Post Kennion on the frontier.
TO destroy his rival in the affections OF
General Kennnion's daughter. Kate
Kennion is engaged to Parlow, but he
knows that she does not love him, and
more than suspects her of loving Lieu
tenant Hawkesworth. Before the close
of the first act he discovers that mis- sus-
picions are well founded. In the second
act Parl0w and HawkeSworth are sent
upon q accommodating expedition which
through the cowardice OF Parlow, re-
suits in the death of several troopers.
Hawkesworth knows the truth but win
not make charges aginst the man who
is TO marry Kate Kennion. But Par
low so manages that the blame for the
disaster falls upon Hawkesworth. He
is about to be tried by court martial
when word comes that the post is In
danger of an Indian attack; some one
must go for help. It is almost hope
less errand for the chances are ten to
one against the messenger escaping
with his life. Hawkesworth volunteers
and Kate places the dispatch bag over
his shoulders at the same time whisper
ing Il love you" The third and great
act Of the play is in the stockade at
Post Kennion. It is early dawn, the
Indians have surrounded the post, and
all night their weird songs have been
heard. The few score of brave men and
women are exhausted and the ammuni-
ton is almost gone. A parley Is held
with the Indian chief who refuses quar-
ter. 1t is the Indian custom to attack
at sunrise and preparations are made
for last struggle. Kate Kennion
knowing the awful fate of women fall
ing into the hands of Indians, makes
her father promise that he Will shoot
her when all hope is gone.

Intruder at the Meeting


It was the regular monthly meeting Of
the Murray Hill Girl Bachelors club
Miss Sophia Greengoggs had read her able
paper on MAN as Failure, With Great
Big F.'' Miss Passe had recited an orig
inal poem entitled waiting" not an
old maids confession by any means, but
the autobiography Of female waitress
at the seaside. Then followed touching
song by Miss Highsee entitled "She
Had to Darn Bier Own Silk Hose Because
Her Husband Wouldn't" After this came
q debate, In Russian Tea Should 1t Be
Four Fingers of Gin to One Of Tea, or
Vice Versa?'' Then came a thesis by a
Boston poetess entitled MAN as Woman's
Stepping Stone to Higher Things"
Then 1t was moved and seconded that
the sergeantess-at arms expel and forever

the club everything male even TO But

resolved that woman was the only true
inheritor to the privileges of the earth
and that man had stolen her hirthright;
that she alone was at once the wisest,

lures Of the mundane sphere, the only

little mouse scampered across the floor.
Instantly the sergeantess-a t-arms flourish
ed small poker above her head, and with
that the little mouse made bee line for

After quiet was restored the president
put the following resolutions Resolved,
That the reason the honorable body arose
in such CONSERVATION with the advent of

castle of femininity was not because It
was mouse, but because that mouse was
of the opprobrious sex, which this estima-

"But how do you know 1t was man

REVELING BY NIGHT
The inaugural ball was held tonight
at representative hall which present
edl a beautiful scene when the ball
opened. The committee had every
arrangements made in most credit
able manner and as the guests filed in
to enjoy the gaiety of the evening
burst of admiration escaped from every
lip.
The hall was beautifully decorated.
Immense streaners Of bunting extend
ed from the great chandelier in the CEN
ter, fran which hung a pretty white
dove, representing peace.
The speakers stand was beautifully
adorned with flowers, palms and other
plants Of various kinds. Directly back
of the speakers stand was life size
portrait of Governor Morrill,, trimmed
with the national colors. Directly OPP
posite it was hung a life sized paint
ing of the late Senator Plumb and
many were they who stood with ex-
clama lions of admiration before the
calm features of the great commoner.
1t was hung over the door next to the
gallery, the nearest picture to the
common people, where Plumb in life
always liked to be.
HEROES LOOKED DOWN.
Every piller in the beautiful hall was
graced by the painting of prominent
Kansan. Robinson, Carney, Reeder,
Harvey, Anthony, Martin, Click, Lew
cling, John Brown and others were
all there.
After the evening reception represen-
tative hall looked like a fairy CRATIC.
Beauty and chivalry mingled there and
the scene was one that will not soon
be forgotten. Nearly everyone was at
tired in evening dress. The costumes
of the ladies were exceptionally beauti-
full and all of them were adorned with
brilliant gems. Governor and Mrs.
Morrill, led the grand march followed
by the other state officers and their
wives.

of the organized and persistent assaults
upon the fair fame, good name and
business credit of the people of Kansas
than is found in the simple recital OF
facts I have given in your hearing. In
the light of this record of phenomenal
progress, let every lover of the state,
every one with faith in its future, gath

that through all its trying vicissitudes
Kansas has been true to its motto, and
gone steadily on its course, up to the

sought by the investors as United

CLEAN UP THE STATUTE BOOKS.
The day of 10 per cent school and
municipal bonds selling at SO cents OF
their par value has long since passed.
Such bonds now, bearing per cent in
terest, will find their par value await
ing them at the door Of our own state
treasury. or in the open market. Pri-
yate credit, which has been the chief
sufferer from the credit destroying cru
SADIE, is being rapidly lifted up and
strengthened by the payment and can
collation. of obligations, and by the
changed sentiment of the people in re-
gard to both ability and duty to pay
their honest debts.
The time believe to be close at hand
when Kansas securities, public or pri-
vate, will take their place beside those
| of the most favorable sections of our
whole country. IF we are faithful to our
selves and live UP to our opportunities,

clerks in the department On one OF these

was doing. The man at work never looked
up; he thought 1t was one Of the other clerks
who occasionally bothered him. What the
devil do you want?" he asked. There was no
response The other clerks gasped for breath.
A death-like stiffness prevailed, and the work
