Closing ExercIses of the Convent Of the
Holy Names Last Night


The assembly han of the convent was
filled last night at the annual closing
exercises. In the rear Of the room an
elevated tier Of seats had been con-
structed. and Il was crowded with
friends OF the pupils. The room was
lastefully decorated with ferns. creep
ers and clusters Of roses making the
stage a mass Of green, white and red.
The FIRST piece on the program was
a march played BY twelve little girls
upon three pianos. In perfect harmony.
This was followed By an appropriate
address Of welcome by one OF the older
pupils. Twcnty-one little girls In cos
tune then sang. "The Merry Little
Cooks" with appropriate gestures.
The motions Of the little ones were very
true 10 life. and even without the words
one would readily have understood AT
each moment what part Of the house
Keeping duties the children were rep
resenting.
Then twenty-four larger girls APP
peared in fez and scarlet sash for the
Eastern Temple Drill" accompanied
by the piano. The perfect unison in
which they performed their parts was
especially noticeable. A chorus Of
twenty-five girls sang an attractive re-
lection. which was charmingly render
ed particularly the parts OF the lead
ing soprano and alto. This was fol,
lowed bya plano trio. difficult selec-
tion. bu, very artlstlcally rendered.
Ten girls In green and ten In pink
then enacted IN pantomine. with much
expression. the song. MY Faith Looks
Up 10 Thee" sung by a quartette
Fifteen girls gave an Instrumental
piece on the mandolin and violin. It
elected much applause and the orches-
ira RESPONDED with another selection.
The principal item on the program.
next, Of course. TO the final address and
awarding Of medals. was the dialogue,
The Nymphs' Treasure" rendered by
three groups OF girls representing re-
spectiyeiy mountain nymphs. city girls
out on picnic. and little berry -plckers.
The queen OF the nymphs carried her
self with grace and bearing which
were truly regal. The concluding musi-
cal performance was the "Galop Bril-
lante." rendered upon three pianos by
sextette. The most striking feature
Of the exercises was he ease and skill
with which even the tiniest performers
handled IN dr instruments. =
The awarding Of the gold medals and

formed by the Rev. Father Lane. The
following medals were awarded: Chris

In his peregrinations around the
town the Astorian man sees some
strange sights. For instance, the
amount Of rotten vegetables, dead
fowls, etc, ad infinitum. ad nauseam,
lying around the back doors of stores
and butcher shops.not to mention the
refuse thrown out from private houses,
would lead one to suppose that very
many careless storekeepers and house
holders are utterly oblivious Of the
laws Of hygiene. or regardless Of the
health Of the community. If we ever
should be so unfortunate as to i'm
port a case of the plague. the hustle
that some people will get on themselves
will be a most edifylng and interesting
sight.

If Clark is seated on his credentials
from Acting Governor Spriggs. the con-
test between the two wings of the demo-
cracy in this state this fall will be a bat
tie royal. Clark will endeavor to elect a
democratic legislature which will send
him back to the senate, while the Daily
wing will try to elect a democratic legis-
lature which will defeat him. In the
meantime it is fair to assume that the re-
publicans will not be idle.

A GREAT POLITICAL COUP.

The great factional contest in this
state between the two wings of the dem
ocgatic ~party-which has produced a
Roland for an oliver, and in which it
has been diamond cut diamond in al
most every diurnal revolution of the
globe-has been again enlivened by a
coup Of prodigious proportions and of
far-reaching effect. The history of pol
itics does not present it's equal, when all
it's features and effects are grouped to-
gether for the candid consideration of
intelligent men. Few incidents could
give rise to a wider scope for speculation
as to possible and probable results, few
could invite more public interest in po-
litical circles throughout the land, and
certainly none could present more anus
ing features at the expense of some of
the parties to a factional political fight,
than the appointment of Senator Clark
to fill the vacancy created by himself.
Yesterday morning Senator Clark an
nounced to the senate the resignation
of his seat in that body, and the legality
of the act was Immediately recognized
by the effacement of his name from the
roster of membership and the roll-calls
of the chamber His resignation was in
the hands of the chief executive of the
state of Montana, and Mr.. Clark became
as genuine an ex-senator as ever checked
his baggage for home. A few hours
later the vacancy, which had been
officially recognized by the senate in
striking his name off the official list of
membership, was filled by Acting Gov
ernor Spriggs of Montana, in the ap-
pointment of ex-senator Clark to the
position he had just surrendered. Within
Il few days his credentials will be in
Washington and he will ask to be sworn
in as a senatorial appointee to a position
made vacant by the resignation of it's
occupant.
Inasmuch as the senate had taken no
action on the report of the committee on
privileges and elections in the Montana
case, and Mr.. Clark's title to his seat
was still an officially valid one, at the
time his resignation was announced, it
must follow that his retirement from
that body left a vacancy which the state
executive had the right to fill. It was
this view of the case which led the An.
acOnda Standard to clamor so loudly TO,
the resignation of Mr.. Clark, before the
senate could take affirmative action or
the report of the committee. The adop.
ton of the repor would have left a va.
cancy which the governor would hayt
been powerless to fill under the senatorial
precedents established, and which would
nave required the action of the legisla
tive assembly. In making it's demand
for the resignation of Senator Clark tn
Standard, of course, anticipated the an
pointment of a Daily man to fill the va
cancy. It's foresight was distanced b.
it's hindsight in the race toward wha
Governor Smith would call "the inevita
BILE" 1t is clear that Senator Clark an,
the Standard looked upon the result
of a resignation in precisely the sam

Rather long speech to be made in
