GIVE US SCHOOLS.

GIVE US SCHOOLS.
The ARDMOREITE believes in
schools. plenty of them, and good
ones. They are the foundation on
which our future depends and
without which our youths of today
will be unprepared in the future
to cope with those of more fav-
Ored localities. Particularly is
this true of our boys. Instead of
being in the school room gaining
useful knowledge, they are too
often on the street lOunging with
professional idlers and as cOnse-
quence themselves become addict
ed to Objectionable habits that
will stay with them through life.
Keep the boy in the school room
and if there is anything good in
him it will develop, while on the
other hand he may have all the
natural requisites of useful man
hood and lose them through lack
of opportunities of development.
A school for boys is badly need
ed in Ardmore We have the ma
terial here to MAINTAIN such an
institution ten months out of each
year.
There is an opportunity to Sc
cure the services of an able educa-
tor in just such a school. and he
is anxious to know the sentiments
of our people in that direction.
Below we produce a letter Just
received by Judge Gibbons and
which speaks for itself and which
we submit to our people for their
consideration. The letter in aues-
ton reads as follows:

Prof. GOwdey in Paris. You were
not at home, but l talked with
your son, Mr.. p. B. Gibbons, who

would prefer that they all live in

form of entertainment for the amuse-
ment of its patrons. On March 4th
and 9Th, the celebrated billiard cham
pions, or "wizards'' az they are some
times called, Schaefer and Ives, are
going to give some exhibition games.
The game of billiards is variously re-
garded by different classes of people.
BY a few. it is frowned upon. on &C.
count of its being surrounded by other
objectional features, but by a very
large per centage of people, and es-
pecially by those who can afford the
luxury IN their homes, it is regarded
as one of the most delightful Of indoor
pastimes. It undoubtedly requires
some knowledge Of the game to thor
oughly enjoy it, but this is true Of
most forms of amusement. -
In some of the large cities of the
country billiard clubs have recently
been formed, for the pleasure and
benefit OF both sexes, while euchre and
whist have been re]eSated to the rear.
Nine Patti is a devoted billiardist, and

pert, the White Ssouse billiard room

The fine wea Their during the past few
days has created much activity in
cycling circles. The dealers have been
exceedingly busy this week receiving
new wheels and making arrangements
for handling the seasons trade.
Browning Bros, the Rambler agerts
have enlarged their store and pat in a
fine show window.
T. Jensen does a little indoor work
as an appetizer.
The Victor company will not have
a tandem on the market this season.
Holger Jensen has punching bag at

as starter for the seasons work.
Fowler, Of Ogden, was in town the
past week, trying to get offers from
the dealers to ride for them.
The reinstatement of Liday and Has

Weller puts in considerable of his
time these days with the home trainer
in preference to outdoor work.
Evans takes spin every day.
Charley don't like indoor work, pre-
ferring to be on his wheel and using
the pedals.
The trial of track is again post
poned until next Sunday when every
thing will be in readiness for the rae
ing men to try its quality.
The Cycle company have their power
air pump in working order and it
works to a charm. Many are the ex-
pressions of pleasure heard from the
wheelmen at the doing away with the

AN ENGLISH cosy CORNER.

In one of those comfortable gray
stone houses situated in that neighbour
hood Of arti5t5-St. Johns Wood in
Londen-I saw such a pretty coy cor
ner. It's like could be fashioned easily
for any American home with the aid
of a carpenter. The fundamental prin-
ciple was a bamboo settee-one of the
large, ample kind that form a triangle,
enabling six people to sit comfortably
upon it. If this is not procurable, two
settees can be placed together at right
angles. A back built of three. strips OF
bamboo reaches to d height OF four feet
from the floor. Around the two sides
of the settee goes bamboo bookshelf,
filled With Well-loVed volumes. In the
centre, where the two angles meet, the
shelf shapes itself into a bracket. upon
which can be placed a vase and several
framed photographs Of favorita friends.
Above the shelves a picture or two.
.daintily framed, could be hung to adj
vantage, but in the original, two Delft
placques were swung, showing to ex-
cellent advantage on the Sreenish yell
low wall Cushions as varied as JOS
eph's coat should be heaped about, on
the settee and floor; a heavy rug
thrown in front, a small stand with a
fern at one side and a piano lamp at
the other.

cry to show off, it can be built into a
high canopy, who's. ends just reach
the bookshelf. T.

corner, served his Friday afternoon tea,

Miss Marie Burroughs the beautiful
and talented actress, whose success on
the road this season as star has been
most gratifying, will be seen at the
Salt Lake theatre on Friday and Satur-
day, March and 2. in Pinero'S
masterpiece, 1.-THE Prohigate," which
had its initial production in America
short while since. Like 1.-The Second
Mrs. Tanqueray," it is looked upon as
a purpose play, although while Mr..
Pinero has drawn mighty lesson from
modern life his first aim has been to
write a strong and interesting play.
He has succeeded in his effort judging
from the reports of the success of the
play in other large cities. Miss Bur
roughs finds in the role of Leslie
Brudenen. the loving, trusting wife.
one with which she is in full sympathy.
Her conception of the part is clear, in
telligent and complete and she acts it
in the true spirit of the dramatist. The
fall of Miss Burroughs at the end Of
the third act Of "The Prohigate" is
simply great. Its effect is thrilling.
The scene works up gradually to it
and so does the actress.
THE Prohigate" is a strong play in
every essential. There is a touch OF
humanity to it, while the strongly
drawn picture of the virtuous wife af-
fords a clever contrast to the erstWhile
prof1igate. All the original scenery
will be brought here. and her company
