Texas Avenue Exercises.

a splendid audience, orderly,
attentive and refined was in at
tendance on the exercises of the
Texas Avenue Methodist Sunday
school Wednesday night.
The program consisted Of music,
Rotations and essays, after an
earnest Invocation by the pastor,
Rev. P, o. Lowry, The selections
were excellent in every part ard
rendered with skill, animation and
effect, The choir was an excellent
one, and the deep attention paid
to every feature was easily OBJ
served by those accustomed to af-
fairs of the kind.
There is some splendid talent in
this Sabbath school, girls and boys
capable Of playing an important
part in circles of polite society, Ii
tcrature and evolutionary art.
The arrangement of the pro-
gram as well as the selections and
the training of the children was
under the immediate control of
Miss Lena H. Hughes, still
school girl; but young lady
of splendid talent, attachments and
spiritual character. The decora-
tons to the church were few and
modest, but were chaste and at
tractive, and seemed to bid well
come to all who came.
Many encomiums were passed
on the exercises and the superin-
tendent is prouder than ever of his
school.
There was a good joke on him
IN reference to the program, but
ne will not tell it here. Come |
sPain, friends.

THE MARDl GRAS.
Shreveport VIII Have It.

hence, CO-PhlOn, Grand Pa i
Shah Of the Princess Of the Orien
have been actively circulatin,
among our. business men and IT,
people generally this week, solicit
ing funds for the grand two days
pageant and celebration in Febru
airy.
The amount asked for was
$4,000. The amount is necessary
to defray the necessary expenses
Of such an entertainment as will
do justice to Shreveport, our peo-
pie and the order.
With this amin view, the special
deputies of the Grand Pa Di Shah,
under the especial escort of men,
bers of the City Council, Hons.
Ben Holman, John P. Scott,
Ernest R. Bernstein, L. G. Allen
, and A. D. Morris, set out to call on
one and all. From Tuesday until
Friday they worked long, hard
and assiduously and have succeed
ed thus far in securing. in cash and
subscriptions, nearly $4,000. With
this !sum secured, the committee
has determined to 90 ahead with
the pageant, trusting to the gener-
osity and business judgment of
our people to mike up the balance.
If not, then the order will have to
give only such an entertainment as
the amount obtained will insure.
But The Progress does not believe
that the people Of Shreveport will
subject themselves to that degree
of embarrassment which such an
event would place them in.
In connection with the soliciting, |
it is pleasing to note how readily |
the individual men and boys
emp(oyeg-gaye one dollar to-
wards defraying the expenses Of
the carnival.
If the $4,000 can be raised, the
Order of the Orients will give such
q carnival as has never been pre-
sented in our city. 1t will be a
credit to the business, moral and
social standing of our people.
The entire surrounding country:
From East Texas, Southern Az
kansas and Mississippi, the people
are eager for it, Drummers COM
ing say that enthusiasm is great
in all the towns within the radius
Of $50 miles.
We hope our citizens will not
overlook this one main fact. The
Grand Order of the Orients, nor
only single member of it, is any
more interested in this, than is
any other person in the city. Not
1 member of the arrangement
committee is under salary. The
nance committee who did the

,eive one cent of pay for their

The Progress feels assured that
'ur people will readily appreciate
What a big thing these two days
'arades will mean to our city.

She should be regular, that is should
teach all the branches and not spend

not be faddist but should be
developed along all lines.
Boyer then discussed the emotional
feelings in his next lecture, dwelling
at length upon their Importance and
the value of their proper cultivation.
Miller then gave a lecture upon Bis
mark. He traced the life of the
great iron chancellor from his enter
ing school at the age of six on
through the successive stages of his
career, telling of his work in form
ing the present great German en-.
pire and of his all powerful influence
uyon the German people.
In the evening quite a good as
semblage had gathered at the M. E.
church to listen to lecture upon the
Scarlet Record of Spain by Supt.
Miller. This lecture was up to the
high standard of Mr.. Millers lectures
and in glowing language did describe
the glory of Spain under Chas. w.
and the subsequent decay and down.
fall of the great empire. The lecture
was much appreciated and the
lecturer generously applauded.
FRIDAY.
The first lecture was by Miller up
on the subject of nature study. He
exhibited samples of the work that
can be done along this line with
much profit and pleasure to the
teacher and to the scholars.
Boyer then discussed solids, de.
ducing many short and valuable
formulas for the solving of such
problems in mensuration. Miller
next gave lecture upon the subject
of memory, dwelling at length upon
the Importance of cultivating the
memory.
In the afternoon Boyer read care
fully prepared paper upon the three
essential qualifications of the
teacher. This was followed by
lecture by Miller upon The Educa-
tion of the Ohio Boy.
The next thing in order was the
election of officers which resulted in
the selection of w. s. Stone for Pres,
J. w. Filing for Ex-Con. and Tunis
Nunemaker for Secretary. After q
few remarks by Miller and Boyer the
institute adjourned.

And they took me prisoner. That
night lay in their camp thinking.

in this style "if l can fool them l

called to an imaginary person am
a prisoner-yes-can't you help
me-all right they have only five
men-yes-how many have you,
fifteen-good three to one. BY this
time the whole camp was staring
at me with eyes as big as OWLS.
"Speak low" they're awake called
to the imaginary person. Surround
the camp and lay hid till give the
