On Wednesday evening the Cleo
club assisted by a few friends cele-
brated the closing of their years work
by the performance of selected scenes
from Shakespeare "As You Like It. -
Shortly after o'clock an audience of
ladies, invited guests. gathered In
Mrs. Ritter's pleasant parlors and
waited with what patience they could

Curtain rang up on the Forest of
Arden which was labeled for fear the
audience wouldn't recognize 1t with

benches bore signs which stated In un-

so. Something else which most peo-
pie would consider screen was real

read. Then there was a stump that
bore marvellous resemblance to a
big chair But 1t was stump, as
anyone who could read could see.
Beginning with Act 3. scene 2. with
the exception of few omissions the
rest of the play was presented as
written. Judging from the rapt at
tention of the audience and the hearty
applause the actors covered them
selves with glory. With one excep-
ton the characters were well taken,
the acting being exceptionally good.

The costumes were unique. no pains

Dewey and SchIey.

Washington, Nov. 6.-The climax Of
the Schley court OF inquiry came this af
ternoon, when Mr.. Rayner. the chief
counsel for Admiral Schley. concluded
brilliant argument Of over three hours
with peroration so eloquent and impas-
stoned that all within the sound Of his
voice we're profoundly touched.
This remarkable trial, he said, sought
to condemn the man who had brought
to successful termination as great
naval triumph as was ever won. In
vivid colors he painted the picture OF the
Brooklyn. with Commodore Schley on
the bridge. fighting the entire Spanish
fleet until the Oregon appeared out OF
the smoke. The thunders Of the Brook
lyn, music for the ears Of his country
men, he said, aroused Admiral Schley's
envious foes. He pictured the victor
ious sailor suffering as few have suffered
for three long years, while the fires Of
persecution leaped around him, and now
awaiting the hour Of his yindication in
the verdict OF the court.
"he can, from tho high and exalted posi-
ton that he occupies, look down upon
his traducers and maligners and with ex-
celfent pride exclaim: i care not for
the venomous gossip of clubs. drawing
rooms and cliques, and the poisoned
shafts OF envy and malice. await un-
der the guidance Of divine providence
the verdict of posterity.'"
The scene il the court room as he fin-
ished with those words was thrilling.
The attendance had been large all day,
and at the morning session a lady had
tainted from excitement. As Mr. Ray
ner began his eulogy OF Admiral Schley
those in the audience. many Of whom
were ladies, leaned forward in their seats,
The spell Of his oratory was over them.
aud when he described the admirable gal
liant deeds and the long persecution to
which he had been subjected many Of
them broke down aud wept.
The members OF the court display ed
evidence OF emotion, and Admiral Schley
himself was plainly moved. He sat lean
ing back, with his hands behind his
head. His chin twitohed, ind % his
counsel said he could afford to await the
verdict Of posterity two big tears rolled
down his cheeks BE moved uueasily to
conceal his emotion and, under the pre-
tense of adjusting his glasses, brushed
the tears aside. For fully thirty sec-
conds after Mr.. Rayner closed there was
not sound. Then the tension broke in
loud burst OF applause.

them palatable. In Australia the lar
