Tho Graduating Exercises.

Nearly everybody in Elko turned
out Wednesday evening to listen to
the exercises Of the graduating class
Of the high school. The Presuy ter
ian church was filled to OVERLOOKING
by the friends of the young people
who took their first step @Out of
school life into Lifs's school," That
they were not disappointed was shown
by the generous applause that fol-
lowed each number on the pro-
gramme. .
The class and teachers, marched in
to the inspiring music of the orches-
ira and as soon as order was restored
Rev. j. M. Donaldson invoked the
blessings of God to rest upon the
graduates and to follow them through
life. .....
The following young people COM
pose the class of '97, the second to
graduate from the high school: Cora
E. Taber, Ruby N. Lindsay, Hattie
L. Hale, Ella l.. Chick, Lulu A. Phil
lips, Katie w. McDermott, Harry H.
Mayer, Lena E: Miller, Katie F
Gheen, Jessie NJ. Harris, Alberta
Benson and John S. Mayhugh, Jr.
The programme rs published yes
terday was carried out with the ex-
ception that, III the absence of AS
semblyman McAfree, H. @. Cutting.
State Superintendent of Schools, pre-
serted the diplomas to the graduates.
The exercises were excellent
throughout, so much so that the IN
DEPENDENT reporter took no notes of
the different essays and speeches and
Is consequently unable TO particular
ize. The papers we're well written
and we're delivered in that easy
graceful manner that comes only
| through hard work.
After Miss Taber had delivered the
.vIledictory, DR.. Stubs was introduc
ed and made an able address on edu-
cational topics. 1t is needless to say
that the DR.. sustained the reputation
! previously made here as an able, in
terestmg talker. He not only did
this, but added new laurels. His ad
dress was replete with sentiments
that, if followed by the young men
and women who closed their high
school education last night, must
make Of them good and useful mem
bers of society in the years to come.
The DR.. held the attention of the
audience for over thirty minutes and
at the conclusion Of his address left
the church to take the train for
Reno.
The diplomas we're presented by
the State Superintendent, the part
ing song was sung, the benediction
was pronounced by Rev. John Daw-
son and the graduating exercises Of
the class of ~ were over and passed
into history.
The singing by Misses Alnley and
Riddle was excellent and deserves
special mention.
Although we took no notes OF the
different papers, we cannot close this
account of the exercises without COM
plimenting the class for the excel
ence OF their essaYe and speeches.
The INDEPENDENT wishes each Of
you success wherever your lots may
be cast and in whatever field Of hon
est labor you toll. May your success
last night nerve you to greater efforts
in Life's school on whose duties and
struggles you have just entered.
May Gods richest blessings be
yours.

HOW TO, Start COOPERATION.

HOW TO START COOPERATION.
First write to some authority for
printed matter in order that you may
thoroughly inform yourself. Then talk
it up to neighbors and friends. Hold
some small meetings; read aloud to-
gether and discuss the points; talk
about it from business point of view
and on its neral side; get q nucleus
fully imbued with its Importance. When
you have as many as % who are willing
to try it, start a subscription list for
membership. at $50 or 500 each, payable
in small installments such as all can
afford. Organize in provisional way
with committee. in charge. Do not
spend any money on legal organization
before you get fully started and know
that you are going ahead. Cooperation
is voluntary matter and only slight
legal forms are necessary. When you
have enough money to buy two or three
items of plain groceries in wholesale
packages. buy them and distribute them
at the ordinary retail prices in some
spare room Of one Of the members. You
have incurred 90 expense, and when this
distribution has taken place You will
find in your possession Is or 20 per cent
more money than you laid out. You can
then buy larger variety and you have
some money coming in all the time
from weekly installments:- When the
membership and business have grown
sufficiently to justify hiring a store
room, then select en- inexpensive place
and keep it open evenings Inthe course.
of time it maybe. kept open. afternoons
twice week; later on two three and
finally six full days q week.
This is very small way Of starting.
but it is the surest way, and it is about
the wayin which Most of the co-opera-
tive societies which now do business
Of millions year were started. Under
no circumstances either buy or sell on
credit; under NO circumstances incur
expenses thasswiil consume the. gross
profit or the greater part Of II. Always
lay the chief stress on the moral IDEAL
ofsc0-operetion. :.

Foiled.
Senator Wilson Of Washington and
his brother, Harry Wilson, LOOK very
much alike. One day in Spokane, where
the two brothers live, Senator Wilson,
who had just returned from his legisla-
tive duties, was stopped on the street by
a man who had known him for years.
Harry" said the man, "when will
your brother John be here:?''
'.In day or two,' said John with
ont smile.
s'Tell him want to see him on an
important matter
Certainly" said John.
1tAnd you will not forget it?'
ttI'll try not,'' promised John, and
thus another Office seeker was foiled.-

starting creamery, and in the course
of time cannery, mill, blacksmith's

years greatly improve their finances
and also their socialsurronndings. This
is no idle theory, but is voucbed for by
what farmers associations have done
for them in different parts of the world.
The cooperative associations IN the
United States are scattered over SO wide
an area and are so far apart that most
of them are unknown to each other. We
shall esteem it service to cooperation,

TEXTILE SCHOOL.
Committee on Organization
Met Last Evening.
Plans Furthcred For Establishing
the Institution in the Fall.
To Work In Harmony With Manual Training In
the Public Schools Committees Appointed.

Last evening the committee appointed at
the recent meeting on technical education,
held at Y. NJ. C. A. Hall, met for organiza-
tion. There were present of the committee
Messrs. e. Y. Woolley, j. r. MacColl,
Henry b. Metcalf and William l.. Coop.
After an informal discussion in which
many valuable suggestions were offered 1t
was decided to recommend the incorpora-
tion of q society for the establishing a
technical textile trade school, modelled
after those now In operation at Lowell and
Philadelphia.
As commencement the following COM
mittees were appointed: Organization
E. Y. Woolley; Place-William l.. Coop;
Teacher-Henry b. Metcalf; Course Of
Study. II. MacColl.
The selection of teachers Is considered
the most important and immediate step to
be taken, and the committee desire those
interested to assist them by recommend
ing competent teachers, because on them
rests largely the success or failure OF the
enterprise.
On the question Of place or location 1t Is
hoped some temporary arrangement can
be made whereby power not now in use
can be taken advantage Of.
In regard to incorporation, 1t Is not con-
templated to seek State aid, but to appeal
to the public spirited, philanthropic citi-
zens of Pawtucket for support.

CYCLING CLUB MEETS.


Business Transacted at Last Nights Meet

The regular meeting of the Pawtucket

The social COMMITTEES made a report Of

A report was also presented by the road

There are a good many events I'm the

tically been appropriated by the wheelmen.
There are two track events in Boston and
one at Crescent Park. The one I'm this

ligntful dramatic story of love and war,

that completely filled the theatre. No de-
scription of shenandoah" is necessary; it
is an old wine grown more palatable with

1t are its patrons.

such actors as Edwin Mourdant, Robert
McWsde, Leslie Gossin and r. A. Locke.
The feminine characters, as portrayed by
Mrs. Haverhill and the Misses Severson,
Rowan, West and Wallace, add to a COM
pany that in all respects Is one of rare ex
cellence.
The week should have additional inter-
est to our theatregoers, inasmuch as a
portion of the receipts from the perform
ance will be donated to the fund of the

ENTHUSIASTIC AUDIENCE.
"The Daxzlor'' Won Instant Favor at lthc
Opera House Last Night.

"The Daxzlor' Won Instant Favor at lthe
Opera House Last Night.
THE Dazzler," began three nights en-
gagement In the Opera House last evening
to an audience large and quickly enthu-
siastic. The play is not new, but farce
comedy permits of perennial youth; its
original construction invariably leaves
room for improvement, and intelligent
management exerts itself toward that
supply. Messrs. Cosgrove and Grant, the
present owners of ''The Dazzler, ," evidently
believe that the world moves, and that it
is preferable to b In the procession. They
have sought new features for the play,
have cast the characters by people capable
of presenting the ideas, and the perform
ance is given as advertised.
There Is plot. A German brewer with
all the money that brewers are supposed
to have, looks first upon the wine that
sparkles, and then upon an actress who
sparkles, too. He promises to be the A.
nancial backer of a dramatic company
of which she shall be the tinseled queen,
the next morning awakes to penitence,
and escapes to Europe.
Brewing Is one business, getting away
from an actress who knows that you have
money, is another. She follows him, and
you just know that she catches him. His
life becomes a simple dream of sorrow for
his past with solos, Duets, trios, quar-
tettes, choruses and all sorts of good
dancing, for his present.
Mr.. William West acted well and was
funny; when a stage comedian is funny,
he deserves to be told Of it; the audience
told him so without dissention. Messrs.
James G. Cowper, Pete Griffin, Max
Miller, and the Misses Ida Rogers, Minnie
Cline and Eva Leslie, deserve special men
tion in a company where all were COM
mendable. OF Miss Minnie Cline, "Queen
Minnie" as she il called throughout the
theatrical circuit of the United States, it Is
due to say that the histrionic talent OF an
acting family was born in her. She is a
neice of our own, the Empress Maggie
Cline, who never yet has been thrown
down. Queen Minnie made many subjects
here by her charming voice. and graceful
presence. Anatomy has much to do with
the success of farce comedy, and the ladies
of "The Dazsler" are dazzlers.

STRIKE AT new BEDFORD.
DLSSATISFAC TON AMONG OPER-
A7YVES AT THE ROWLAND MILLS
The Receivers Decided to Equallze the Scale
Of wases With Other Mills.

New Bedford. Mass, May 1S.-Notices
have been posted in the Rowland, New
Bedford Manufacturing company and
Rotch Spinning company's mills, the af-
fairs Of which are In the hands of re-
ceivers, announcing that as soon as
practicable the receivers would readjust
wages to conform tothose paid In other
mills OF the city. This means a reduc-
ton. At the time Of the big strike two
years ago, Mr.. Rowland refused to cut
the wages Of his employees. Since then
the three corporations have continued
to pay higher wages than other mills
Now the receivers have decided to equal
ixe the scale as nearly as possible. AS
result, Rotch mills Nos. 1 and 2 and
Howland mill No. did not start up
their machinery yesterday afternoon
About 500 operatives are out, and the
dissatisfaction at the South End Is In
