ST. JOHNS INSTITUTE.
Closing Exercises Held in the
School Yard-Students Pre-
sent Two Acts of the ''Mer-
chant of Venice"

For seventy one years st.
Johns Institute, this city, has
exerted an influence in the edu-
cational, that Is not confined
alone to this section, and among
its alumni are many distin-
guished persons at home and
abroad.
1t is a parochial school and
still has advantages for the adj
vanced students preparing for
any of the large universities or
colleges. 1t is managed by the
Jesuit Fathers and has an able
corps of instructors.
On Monday night last, the an
nual concert was held III the
school yard, and the exercises
took place on stage erected for
the purpose. After the premi.
ums had been delivered to the
students, the members of the ad-
vanced classes presented two acts
from the "Merchant of "Veuice."
In this they were most successful
and greatly pleased the large au-
dience present.
The leading part, that of Shy
lock, was taken by Professor
Koehler, instructor in elocution
at Georgetown University, and
it is needless to say that it was
well rendered. Inspired by his
presence and coaching the young
students acquitted themselves in
a highly creditable manner.
After the play Rev. Father
O'Rourke, delivered an address.

ums awarded to the students:

Of hurrying, favorably commented
upon by the president Of the French
Republic and by delegates or com.

Commissioner Peek was surprised at
the dilatory, restful habits of the

his own example and that OF the few
American artiZans he took with him,
he succeeded in completing the Amer

made his capital by industry, brains
and energy and keeps great manu-
factory going by force of will and fer

Mr.. Eliot Gregory i'm the May num-

"a Nation in a Hurry" distresses
himself causelessly about the wear

familiar complaints urged by Dick

others from their easy chair retreats,

So many men consider their business
''the most important and most ex.
tensive of any in the United States"
However that may lie Mr.. Wilson says
he employs twenty men to skin and
stuff birds for the millinery market.
He says that nearly all of his birds
are purchased in the market, skinned,
their wings cut off. and resold to res
taurateurs and hotel keepers.
During the past year l have hand.
led about twenty thousand wild ducks
mostly teal, brOadbills, mallards and
shelldrakes, which were purchased in
the markets of Washington, Balti-

birds were killed for the market and
would have been killed just the same
even though it were not fashionable
for the ladies to wear feathers on
their hats. might add that all of
these were resOld after being skinned,
for table purposes. The same is true
OF the thousand of snipe and other
game birds which are handled in the
millinery line; the birds are killed for
the market, and will continue to be
killed, whether or not fashion calls
for the use of feathers in the mil.

used quite extensively, are purchased
at the markets and from the sporting
clubs, but the principal trade com.

that the song birds of New England
