shaw's orchestra. The programme con-
sisted of drills, marches, vocal and in
strumental music. The first number
on the programme was the rendition of
''Etiquette Lessons" by a group of small
girls. Miss Mary Merrimack executed
some very pretty pieces on the guitar,
which was followed by miscellaneous
exercises by the primary class. Then
came a recitation by Master j. Kelley,
which was struck off in a very neat
fashion. An original story written by
Miss Mari Shaw was then read, and was
well-written paper. The recitation,
Fuss at Fires" by Master j. Brennan
was well received. The conclusion of
the first part was the rendition of "Dis-
tant Chimes" by trio. The accom-
panh.ts, Misses Nellie Gallagher Nellie
Farrell and Anne LOTUS, ofiiciated in
a pleasing style.
The principal feature of the evening
was the pretty drama, entitled Mon
sleur lie Cure" The performance came
to a close with a sacred chorus by the
school. The piece will be produced
again this evening.

Mr.. used to be one of the con-
spicuous lobbyists at Springfield. He
| was, as we recall, the representative of A
certain corporation that made very free
with railroad passes, and that would,
when hard pressed, give up in good
| round sums. The stories that are told
| of the crookedness of the late legislature
| have served to revive memories of Mr.
-, or Mack" as his associates
called him. At one time there was
| certain Republican member of the state
>cenate whose vote was needed in the in
terests of the corporation which Mack
represented. The senator was honest
simply because he was afraid to be dis
honest. On one occasion he frankly told
Mack" that he had no scruples against
selling his vote, if only he were insured
against exposure and the consequent
disgrace. Mack laughed heartily at
this, and assured the fellow that there
were plenty of ways of getting around
that difficulty. An~t evening Mack
went to the SENATOR, room, ostensibly
for social call. He took seat upon
the bed and engaged for perhaps half
an hour in desultory chat upon common
place subjects. All at once Mack" be-
gan to pull and scratch at himself
II do believe" says he, that there's
vermin in this bed. Yes, there is the

lunge under the coverlet of the bed and

nally he got up and ran out of the room,
declaring he would no longer ctay
where he was liable to molestation.
"Ju2t look for yourself" he cried to
the senator, "and you'll find the biggest
bug in that bed you ever saw
The hint was as good as a kick would
have been. The senator pulled down
the sheet of the bed and discovered
there large roll of bills of large de-
nomination.

tor to Mack" next morning when the
two met in the capitol. And from that
moment the senator voted the way
