The concert given last Friday evenir G
was grand success as a social event; as
nearly every body was there, and went
away pleased with their evenings enter
tainment. As all participants acquitted
themselves so creditably, special men
ton of any individual mem yer would be
superfuous. Eighteen pupils took part,
assist ed by DR.. Baugh, Mrs. Mcmahon
and little daughter Creme, Clyde Senter,
G. w. Wernicke, and violin selection by
Mr.. andrews. All scholars of the class
will begin another term, March lst,

A fight for the championship of the
door yard between Doc Smith and his
COW.
The day that Kenly inspected our Jail,
Doc Smith struck out with a shining |
pail, land a whistle which showed his |
lungs were hale to milk COW with
brindle tail. The cow looked back, her |
eyes aglow, as the whistle stopped, and
Doc. said, So-o-ol That COWS tail snap
ped, her head went low, her heels flew
up, and Doc did too, and his angel wings
began to grow, Gas the humps behind
his shoulders show,) when the upper air
did strike his brow, and heavens trail his
mental view, a wish to get square with
that same COW, changed the wish for the
trip, Gust now) He called a halt, (his
wings stopped too, just as their tips were
peeping through.) He reached the
ground, club was nigh, the whizz of
which raised a breeze so high, that last
years leaves flew to the sky, Gas an acre
of ground will testify But wicked lear
was in Docs eye, as he told his wifeD
Our cows gone dry; she's lame to boot,
has hurt her thigh, her neck's unjoint-
ed, and hangs awry, and strange to say,
she acts so shy, L can't get near her
hell knows why.
On Sunday evening Rev. Barger con-
Quoted a service in memory of Miss
Mamie Dai sy Stewart, a stranger who
was brought from the train by the por-
ter and passengers, to the New Columbia
Hotel about two weeks ago. He took
his text from the 23d psalm, "When thou
walkest through the valley of the shad-
dow of death l will be with thee" The
young lady had expressed her faith in
her Saviour and in her sickness and death
had shown lovely christian character.
The painful circumstances of her situa-
ton, among strangers, were greatly re-
ceived by the kindness of those who had
charge of her. Her misfortune excited
the sympathy of the whole community
who with the family in the hotel did for
her all that could be done. Rev. Barger
spoke of his own bereavment in the
Heath of his daughter. and gave the tri-
butte to the people of shoshone, Of being
the most generous and sympathitsc peo-
pie he had ever known No event has .
occurred in Shoshone for sometime that
mas excited such interest. The town
urned out to the funeral last Thursday {
evening, and there was large attend
lnce at the church Sunday evening.
