 While Miss DolIie Butler was tho sole graduate, an interesting pro- gramme was presented. which show. ed of to advantage the pupils of this institution of learning,
 The relatives and friends of the scholars were evidently deli ghlod with the pro6ciency shown by ihe girls and boys who appeared on the stage.
 The opening march was an instru- mental piece. performed with excel lent time and good expression by Miss Louisa Campbell, at the piano, melodious strains from gaitars in the skIllful hands of Misses Barbara Hubbell, Nellie Milliksn ani Alice Campbell, and tinkling notes from mandolins, played with ease and grace by Misses Adela Hubbell and Anna Burke.
 A class recitation by the boys, eulogizinR the American flag, was nicely spoken, and every boy in the chorus hnrrahed lustily and at the same time waved on high the na- tional colors.
 Misses Amy Nelson and Alice Campbells instrumental duet, gave evidence of careful ana intelligent training, the players displaying delicscy of touch and knowlekge of piano music.
 The ''Bugle Song," recited by the senior class, was novelty in its way. Some fifteen young girls, with elocu- tionary power and beautiful modu- lation of voice, spoke in unison and with graceful gestures, delivered the piece. This was one Of the gems of the evening.
 A piano duet, given by Misses A. and B. Hubbell, attracted the aiteution of the audience. The music was quite difficult, bul was played with ease and thorough knowledge of technical methods by the charming young ladies.
 A dialogue between Miss Alice Campbell, representing l776, and Miss Rosa Klrwagen, representing 1896, convinced the audience that a century has occasioned a wonderful difference in dress and ideas, but whether the latter age is an improvement, in all respects, over the former, still remains an open question.
 Misses Carrie Hartman and Louisa Campbell rendered, in a highly creditable manner, another piano duet,
 "Truth" was the esaay for the evening, and showed thoughtful preparation and study by its author, Miss Alice Campbell.
 The song, Happy Birds" filled the stage with a bevy of small, low able little darliugs, and they sang about the birds with strong voices and charming presence. This piecs received prolonged applause.
 Then came the fair graduates reading of "Jennie McNcal's Ride" !"
 "The Gracas," was piano trio by Misses Katie Burke, Manic Hickey and May Wilson, accompanied by a full band. Noticeable in the mu- sical aggregation were Masters Ray mond Belcher, who played drum, Master Burke, who handled the tamborine, and MaSler Robbie Nor rison, who performed on the trian- gle.
 Miss Anna Burke's recitation of Sister and l." was pathetic and sweet.
 Miss Dollie Butler. the fair grad uating representative of the acad- emy, delivered the "Valedictory." To the rhythm of her language, she gave the beauty of her voice. Flushed was the audience held by the magnetic sympathy of the com position, thanking the good Sisters for their years of earnest devotion to her education, bidding farewell to teachers and school mates, and speaking of the venture she was about to make into the world. This "sweet girl graduate" was then pre- sented with her graduating diploma. Diplomas were also conferred upon Miss Daisy Stone and Miss Winifred Eudey.
