MUSIC.
The music is expected to be a spe-
cially attractive feature of the coming
convention. A chorus of two thousand
voices has already been organized, and
has begun work upon some OF the
worlds masterpieces of sacred songs
The members of the chorus will be
drawn from the larger cities OF the
State as well as from San Francisco.
The chorus will be accompanied b,
a grand organ built by Murray NJ. Har.
ris. of Los Angeles forthe chapel at IN,

and kindly loaned by Mrs. James l.
Stanford. The published program. a.
heretofore. will contain the familiar
hymns and songs to be used by the
convention. l'H

a dozen men were crowded, all intent
upon taking what they called "three

Rlewit couldn't stand chaff1ng, SO he
took his poison with as good grace as
possible. not only once, but several
times, and he soon forgot all about
the ozone. and was as eager for bluf
as any one. as he followed the party
into a room at the top Of the house, in
the cupola, in fact, which was dimly
lighted by kerosene lamps. 1t was
