VALENTINE SONG.

Oh, song for the winter waning,
When the birds begin to pair
and their soft complaining
Watts on the southern air,
When the eVetides grow less eerie
With the chill casts whelp-like Whinei
Oh, rouse for his saintship CHEEKY,
Coed OLD Saint Valentine!
Oh. a song for the pulse that's beating
Under the iron earth;
For the speedy meeting
OF melody and mirth;
For the rout-of that cruel Tartar,
Winter, or mood malign!-
On, a rouse for the merry martyr,
Coed old Saint Valentine!
oh, a song for all fond lovers
Dreaming the olden dream;
For the CLEAN that hovers
The radiant rainbow-beam;
For the love that is no fable,
The love that is thine and mfne!-
Oh, rouse for sweetheart Mabel
And for good Saint Valentine!
The Smart Set
The annual performance of the Univer-
sity Dramatic club will take place to-
morrow night in the Lyceum theater,
Minneapolis. The club has this year
adopted the custom of some Eastern
amateur clubs in selecting, instead Of a
three or four act play, three one act
plays, each sc distinct in character as to
be a rather severe test of the all round
dramatic ability of the club members.
range from liveliness of an up to date
farce and the thrilling intensity of a
melodrama to the most delicate and ar
tiSJic comedy.
"A Woman's Won't' is a one act farce
from the German, in which some very
amusing complications arise from a
ridiculously trivial incident and are I'M
tangled by incidents equally trivial The
second play, AT the Barricade," by
Evelyn Greenleaf Sutherland has been
produced twice before only in this coun-
scene in Paris, during the Commune CT
II. The martial sound of the Marseil-
laiSe, the thunder of cannon and the
screams CT wounded or dying rioters make
fitting prelude to a tragic story, CEN
tering in the capture and death of Yvonne
Of Gueniperle,, called queen of the
and noble sentiments in the play, hut
the curtain falls, as it rose, upon a scene
of bloOdshed and tumult intensified by the
yells of a frantic mob, and the dying
strains Of the Marseillaise hymn.
The scene which the last rising of the
curtain diScloSeS is q japanese interior,
supposedly the house OF the poet, Kami,
near Yeddo. The comedy is absolutely
authentic and Is charming glimpse into
the life and customs of the quaint Japan
csc. The play is an adaptation in verse
"a Flower of Yeddo," and has been pro-
duced but once before in America.
