J. On Tuesday night was largely at
tended, the court room being well
filed. Quite . number came over
from Huntingburg to the exercises.
The program, as published hereto
fore in the COURIER, was carried out,
and it made an enjoyable evenings
entertainment. II goes without
saying that theSyoung lady gradu-
ates looked handsome in their de-
lightful gowns with flower trim
mings. Their essays, too, were
we'll composed, and passably de-
delivered, though it appeared to
most that they spoke a little too
rapidly to make goodplatform ora
tors. But if they have aspirations
in that direction, experience will
soon cure that defect, and the abili-
~ shownlby their essays would in
dicate brilliant success. Mr.. Hun.
ter's address Was q model Of iii
kind. urging all to . higher educa
ton, and his advice TO the yradu'
atss was particularly impressive.
In addition 10 the high school
graduates, the scholars who had
passed examinations for diplomas in
the common school course of Balm
bridge township were given them
by Prof. Vernon, at the same time
- the high school graduates, and
twelve OF them formed a semicircls
in the rear Of the high school grad
yates. 1t presented at that time I
very pretty picture. The high
school graduates were Misses Clio
tilda Buettner, Emma Joseph anc
Guseie Clark, and Mr.. Curran o
Clark. The common school gradu
ates we're Anna Pau, Mary Lem
ing, Anna Gosman, Myrtle Corn
Anna Kline, Flora Traylor, Luis
uchner, Wendolin Leighton
Louis Wagner, Leo. Durlauf, Arch
G. Doane and John Oily.
The music by Misses Emma
Eckert, Olive Traylor, Flora Voll
mer, Flora Traylor. Mrs. J. +
Friedman, and Mr.. Otto Zoeller
was charming, and shows that Z
social musical organization in Jas
per could be made . success, and {
source Of pleasure and menta

Daybrsak

The night seems long, ny Father shadows rise,
And dark across my pathway fall;
There is no light of dawn IN Orient skies,
And SORROW shrouds me like pail;
The stars of Faith and Hope so dim have grown;
O, rift the gloom and send their radiance down.
The morn was fair, seen with glad childhood eyes;
A world of sunshine, love and flowers;
Nor sweeter was the bliss of Paradise
As onward fed the swlft-winged hours;
At noon l reveled in the sunshine still,
And felt 20 prescience of the twilight chill.
am so tired, my Father the rough path
Is Strewn with wrecks of joys long gone,
l scarce can lift my dim and weary gaze
To watch the coming of the dawn.
Or, let me lean and rest against thy heart,
Till glorious day shall break and night depart.

Finally Captured His Man.

Charles L. Fowler, Of Albuquerque, cat
tie inspector for tie central New Mexico
division, yesterday received the following
dispatch from Silver City:
"We have Frank Jones In jail. Come at
once.n
The dispatch is signed Baylor Shan
non /" sheriff.
Jones is a well-known cattle thief, who
operated for years u west, especially 10
Valencia county, and ABOUT two years ago
he was indicted by the grand jury Of that
county. He was a fugitive at that time,
but Inspector Fowler kept or a hot trail
after the thief, and located him In several
places. About a year ago. he ascertained
that Jones was on a ranch in Grant coun
ty, but the thief got wind that the inspec-
tor was after him, and skipped
over the line into Mexico. Six months
ago the inspector ascertained that his
much wanted prisoner wal in Arizona, but
again the wiry Jones escaped arrest. The
inspector was not to be outdone-be kept
right after Jones, and a short time ago had
him again located in Grant county. Sheriff
Shannon was advised, a description Of the
man sent on, and soon thereafter he was
arrested. Jones was indicted in Valencia
county for stealing a burch OF nineteen
cattle from Narciso Pine, of Cubero, and
driving them to Gallup, where he sold the
cattle to butchers. Mr.. Fowler left Albu-
querque, this morning, for Silver City, and
expects to have his prisoner in the Valencia
county jail-in a few days.

them marching up tie street, YOU would
never guess that tde boya call themselves
a military band; FOR they have no uni
forms, and this Is one thing essential to
any military organization, 10 fact, the
uniform Is everything In some military
organizations. The boys arranged a series
of entertainments, with the hope that they
could clear enough money, from this
scheme, to buy uniforms, but, up to the
present time, they are out a great deal Of
work and worry, and In, very little money.
They have one more entertainment com
ing, Spedon, the great cnricaturist, clio
cutionist and mimic. Spedon has already
been paid the opera house has been paid for,
and every dollar that is taken In, at the
door, viii 80 towards uI.0TmIs the
band. Here, then, are two good reasons
why the opera house should be filled, to
overlooking: First, that the entertain
ment will be one OF the finest that ever
came to this city, both amusing andinstruc.
tive and, second, that a liberal patron
age will enable the band boys to purchase
suitable uniforms.
The following is clipped from the Sank
Center, Minnesota, Herald:
The entertainment given by 8. M. Spedon,
at the opera house on Monday evening, was
attended by a large and apprSoiative IN
dience. The lecture, II running comment
upon his handiwork may be called a lee
ture-was pleasant In manner and matter.
| He is a genius with the crayon, and made
a number of character sketches of hand,
| which were finely and rapidly executed,
the most notable being an excellent por-
trait of Walt Whitman. A little piece Of
| scenery elected hearty applause. His
caricatures were funny, and for two hours
he held the closest attention Of his audi
ence. 1t was a delightful entertainment,
and every one present was heartily pleased.
| As an elocutionist and mimic he was very
good and his program was varied enough
to please all. 1t is sincerely hoped hat be
may again favor this city with a repetition
of his unique entertainment.
Don't fail to attend. the Spedon enter
tainment, at the Tamme, next Tuesday
evening. Popular prices, Soc and 25c.

Fire Alarm system.
From the albuquerque Democrat.

From the albuquerque Democrat.
The appropriation for fire purposes is
stated to be $1,500 for the year ending the
present month, of which only $500 has been
expended up to this writing, a good show
ing certainly. This would be a good time
to work up an interest among prospective
candidates for aldermanic honors, II the
present council does not wish to take the
responsibility, in the Gamewell system.
1t is understood that the cost for the in
PRODUCTION of the popular alarm, now in
use all over the country and which is "up
to date" in Albuquerque would be ex-
ceedingly low. Instead of the uncertain.
ties as to locality, as was shown on
Wednesday evening and other occasions,
the fire would be located by number Of
district Immediately and duly recorded for
reference.
