Cooper Quartet Sings.

The doors of the spacious auditor
ium were thrown open to the public
last Wednesday evening, and a vast
number were present and enjoyed an
evenings entertainment which was
not only credit to the performers
but was also complimentary to the
wisdom of the institute in having Sc
cured the Cooper Quartet of young
musicians. They are mere boys in
appearance but they can sing as il
they had seen older years in expert
ence. Aside from their singing, we
would commend their gentility and
refinement. There is nothing coarse
n their entertainment nor in their
social contact. They are gentlemen
and they are singers. Considering
the comparatively short time which
they have been organized, their abil-
ity to entertain is unexcelled. The
impersonatOr and reader, Mr.. H R.
Ross is genius. He has natural and
acquired talents, which if cultivated,
are destined to make him one of the
leading impersOnators of the country.
He won the favor of his audience at
his first appearance. Mr.. j, W, Brush
as a bass sOlOist is also a fine musician
and the pOsSeSsOr of a rich voice. The
guitar music was alss exceptionally
good in some selections.
The quartet is composed of the fol-
lowing gentlemen: H. R. Ross, first
tenor; E. L. Weede, second tenor:
W. A. Phillips, first bass; J. W.
Brush, second bass. While here the
boys made many friends among the
young men of the city, who will glad
ly welcome a return Of the quartet.

About the Normal.

Mary visitors attended the normal
institute Thursday morning, it being
their last opportunity.
Prof. ]. W. Cooper returned to
his home in Newton Friday even
ing after a most successful
career as conductor of the normal
institute here, His work has been
highly satisfactory.
The last school hour Thursday
was used in the organization of the
county teachers association. Supt.
W. S. Warner was elected president;
Prof. W. NJ. Massey, vice president;
Orville Frantz, secretary; W. H. De-
muth, treasurer. A great interest in
the success of the organization was
manifested.
The city and county teachers read
ing circles have united and will
be in charge of Prof. H. F. NJ. Bear
during the coming winter. They will
meet together and study the same
books. Their work for the next year
will consist of the studyOf Tompkin's
PHILOSOPHY of Teaching" and Emer-
tons Medieval Europe"
A number of normal students went
out seren iding Friday night. Wishing
to show their respect for Supt. Var
ner, they decided to give him the
best they had. They were directed
to his place of residence, but unfOrtu-
nately made a mistake, and after they
had sung the cream of their selections
they discovered that they had sung
beautiful lays to an empty house.
They hunted him up as well as other
friends, however, and made amends.

An Evening of Pleasure.

At early twilight Wednesday, the
torches and many colOred lanterns
transformed the lawn which sur
rounds the residence Of L. c. Newton
into token of the evenings brilliant
entertainment yet awaiting. Not a
long time lapsed until one of the
most gay and Joyous companies of
Wellington's young people had assem-
oled to enjoy an evening of pleasure
unallOyed. Knowing that they were
to be entertained by Miss Stella New
ton in honor Of Miss Mayme Huffman
was enough to insure the brilliant
success which the event proved to be.
The earlier portion of the evening
was spent in social diversions and con-
versatiOn. Then came the contest for
prizes. Cards containing twenty
questions, each one to be answered by
the name Of a flower, were distributed
and soon the minds of all were taxed.
Some answers were so ridiculous that
much merriment was produced by
this novel idea. For thirty minutes
they studied and then c. ]. Humph-
rey was declared the Prize winner.
Accordingly he received a fine bOu-
quet OF roses.
When it was learned that Miss
Huffman would render a violin solo
everyone bent listening ear. Her
rendition was fine and her superior
skill in violin music is unQuestiona.
BILE. She charmed her hearers not
alone with her violin but also with
her voice. She sang a beautiful solo
which was much appreciated. She
was accompanied by Mrs. l. l. Scott.
By unique and interesting meth
I'd, partners were chosen for supper.
The rooms were not only beautifully
decorated with flowers, but every
choice of a partner or guess of any
kind must be made in the name of a
flower. The idea was indeed interest
ing. The supper was simply elegant.
The tastes of the most fastidious were
gratifed and every one enjoyed the
lawn supper. Misses Newton and
Huffman were assisted in the enter
tainmentb by Misses Edith Myers Mag
gle Walton and Zoe Staub. The
guests present were: Misses Mayme
Huffman, LOttie Hunter, Grace Stev-
enSOn, Laura Gelino, Laura Bixby,

From Oklahoma,

EDITOR VOICE: This will inform
you that there are people still living in
Oklahoma, although we have had a
hard time Of it this season. There
was not rain enough to sprout corn or
oats until the 9th Of June. There
was, however, now and then a grain
come up and some sprOuted and died.
This protracted drOuth consequently
damaged the wheat seriously. The
wheat will not average two bushels to
the acre, take it all over. While
there may be an acre once in awhile
that will go from five to ten bushels.
There is not enough wheat in Oklaho-
ma for seed and bread. There has
been large acreage Of cane, kaffir
corn and millet sOwn. Chinch bugs
did considerable damage in some
localities. There will be some peaches
here but that will be the extent of the
fruit crop. However, there are grapes
in some localities.
uSOme men are planting large patches
Of potatoes. Charley Allen has TWEEN.
ty acres planted and talks of planting
more. All vegetables seem to be do
ing splendidly now, but insects are
making havoc with a great many veg
etables.
There has been plenty of rain siuce
the 9th of June. The creeks have
swept away several bridges and the
roads have been in bad shape several
times. Yesterday July 22) was the
heaviest rain in this neighborhood
this summer. The streams were all
impossible, and everything is growing
fast, especially weeds.
