The social given by the Congregation
al choir at the residence OF Alex Ross
Friday evening was a brilliant success.
The feature of the occasion was the
musical program. l.. c. Parker de-
lighted the audience with a number of
songs and selections on the violin, the
best OF them being those OF his own
composition. l.. c. is quite an artist in
the musical line and is deservedly pop
ular.
A comma is a very small thing, but
another csse of making quite "A differ
ence where it is placed has just come TO
our attention. Some one handed 81
local item to a Greedy paper saying:
Two young men from Leota went
with their girls to Tribune to attend
the teachers institute, and as soon as
they left, the girls got drunk" The
comma belonged after girls. At last
accounts the editor OF the paper was
still in hiding.-Ex.
The Ainsworth musical depot in
the " allace Block, under the direction
OF T. c. Olson is o the popular resort
for musicians OF the city-the place
where they make purchases, Of all kinds
Of sheet music andmusical merchandise
generally. They sell such celebrated
makes in pianos as Harry f.. Miller,
Lakeside, Meniheld, Schubert, KimbaIl,
Schimme!, Kingsbury and Conover. In
organs Clough 4 Warren, Farrand &
Eotey, Western Cottage and Chicago
Cottage.
Theodore Twettis again at the helm
OF the Bristol Courier. There has been
some talk OF the paper being moved
from Bristol, but we are OF the opinion
that the business people Of that enter
prising little berg will rally to the sup
port OF the Courier and keep it there.
Tie Reporter extends the fraternal 49,
to brother Twett and is glad to well
come him back into the ranks. He
makes the Courier a bright, newsy,
chattv, local sheet, well deser ging the
hearty support oil the community in
which it is published, and we predict he
will get it.
