Daughters of the confederacy..

A big audience packed Washineto ton
Hall last Thursday evening on the occa-
sion of the Concert given by the Daugh-
tiers of the confederacy. Many of the
numbers on the programme, whether
songs, recitations or tabieaux were full
of good old Rebel" spirit, and reminis-
cent of the heroic deeds of the boys in
gray. 1t is no fiattery to say that the
performers who so kindly lent their ser
vices richly deserved the warm enthusiasm
that greeted their efforts. The Charles
Town Mandolin Club played an overture.
and interspersed the performance with
several very pretty numbers. A large
and well trained chorus of young ladies
sang three choruses. Vocal solos by
Mrs. Gustav Brown, Miss Annie Aisquith,
Miss Julia Merchant and Mr.. A. d. Barr
met with hearty applause, as did piano
solo by Miss Quisenberry. The whistling
of Mr.. Fulton to the piano accompani-
ment of Mr.. Porter, and the negro melo-
dies of Mr.. Mcdonald were especially
pleasing features; as was also the Duet,
'.Old Folks at Home" by Mr.. Fulton and
Miss Julia Merchant. REGULATIONS, with a
Southern wartime flavor. were given by
Misses Sublette, Lindsay. Lucas, and
Master John Wiltshire. These, with four
pretty tableaux, completed the first part
of the programme.
The second part was little one-act
comedy, "a Happy Pair, played by Mr.
and Mrs. D. B. Williams. Their per-
Torrance was given with touches of ease
and naturalness that are very rare on the
amateur stage.
The receipts amounted to sixty-five
dollars, which will be devoted to the
erection of head-stones over the unmarked
graves of Confederate soldiers,

Solid for Fresh Air.


There is not much that is solid about
fresh air, but there is something very
solid about the amount of enjoyment
that can be gotten out of two weeks of
free farm air by city youngter. There
is something solid about the amount of
satisfaction that the farmer who enter
tains them feels when he sees their hap
piness.
Country people may say. Let the city
folks take care of their poor" Well,
some of them do all they can. But a
visit to the country is something which no
one but country-man can give, and this
is just what the Children's Fresh Air
Society of Baltimore thinks the children
need most.
The city people raise the money to send
them, and visit them in their homes to
see who needtogo. City doctors examine
them to see that they are free from
disease, but that is all that the city peo-
Pile can do, however good their intentions
may be- Won't the country people take
them to their homes? Won't this neigh
borhood go solid for fresh air?
