A SLEEPING CAR TRAGEDY.
How the Lack of a Corkscrew Caused
Unexpected Woe.
Detroit Free PressJ


Dear me- said a girl suddenly. lit was
just this time last year we made that
dreadful sleeping car trip and had such
horrible adventures because we didn't
have a corkscrew.
Gertrude was half sick: almost had
insomnia, and had a malt tonic with her
which the doctor said she should take if
she was sleepless. After everybody was
a-bed in the car she whispered to me
that she couldn't sleep and thought she
had better take some tonic-would I hold
the glass while she opened the bottle of
malt? / held the glass-and kept on hold
ing IL. She had forgotten to bring a
cOrkscrew, and was getting the cork out
with 4 penknife / must stand ready TO
hold the glass the very minute she got
the cork started-Or the effervsscent stuff

sleeping car berth, I didn't know; but at
any rate. 7 felt cfeerfully willing TO try.
. 'Here-hold the glass-hold the glass"
cried Gertrude. oh. pshdW-I m not quite
ready vet
several false alarms like this occurred.
7 promptly held out the glass-severaI
times--somewhere in the pitch dark; and
then Gertrude would say:
aPshaw. I can't get this old cork
started! Why didn't somebody bring a
corkscreW2
..Finanv. while I was sitting up in the
dark half asleep. holding the glass and
awaiting the signal from Gertrude. she
evidently got the cork started without
having time to mention il. for there arose
a tremendous fizz-all in the dark-and a
thick stream of something aWfully thick
and sticky~-struck me right IN the eyes
and trickled down all over my sleeping
car gown Gertrude's giggte could be
heard above the roar of the train To

act accordingly. The next national
convention must not be bound by any
precedents. save adherence TO Jeffer-

be met in a progressive spirit and the
platform of 1896 must not stand in the
way of party harmony. The great is

Amusements.
ss

From the opening bars of THE Pill
grims' Chorus" TO the last strains of
the Damascus March," the Goddard
testimonial last night was a complete
success The house has seldom held
like number of people to hear must
cal programme. the galleries and main
floor being filled to almost their utmost
capacity. Applause was limited only
by the statement that no encores would
be given.
Goddard was given an ovation at the
first number, and at each succeeding
appearance he was warmly greeted.
His ''Toreador Song was certainly his
best number, but the many who VIII
miss him from musical circles showed
their appreciation of his Friends" al
though it was not rendered with the
vim nor the feeling evidenced in the
play. a full band accompaniment TO
the ''Toreador Song" a piano TO the
Friends" and the grand strains of the
organ with the glorious "Hosanna
gave variety enough TO suit all tastes.
One rather disconcerting incident-or
accident-marred the evening for Miss
Fisher and for her friends Two pages
were missing from the accompanies
copy of her song, The Hearts Spring
time" and as a consequence her song
was not only cut short, but she her
self was so seriously vexed as TO spoil
her number completely. That the audi
ence was in full sympathy with her
was evidenced by their endeavors to
recall her, until an explanation was
made by Professor Mcclellan.
Ny McClellan's two selections, Ba-
tiste's Grand Offertoire" and Lemare's
''Andantino," were most wisely chosen.
The Image of the Rose" was well
rendered by the ladies' double quar-
tette, but the selection was too long for
the programme.
One of the best numbers was the
male quartette, the favorite being
Shattuck's Grand Old Ocean" which
was rendered with beautiful blending
of the voices and great depth of feel
ing.
Miss Berkhoers 80 Don FatalP' was
another of the real gems of the even
ing Her clear alto voice rose true in
all its rich beauty, anu the conclusion.
brought a burst OF applause.
Miss Ferrin's selection, though given
with feeling and expression, was not as
satisfactory to those of her listeners
who know her voice as her work has
been with the opera company.
The band numbers were excellent,
and as much might be said for the
choir selections, were il not for the fact
that the two given, Hail Bright
Abode" and the Damascus March,"
have been heard at almost every con-
cert within the memory of the Oldest
settler
The little talk given by Mr.. Goddard
near the close was full of feeling, and
while meant as only the customary
conventional thanks, went deeper, and
was answered with a "godspeed' in
many heart that has known and val
ued the talented singer.
