great ability as teacher was so clearly
demonstrated last evening. She was the

The Providence Opera house was filled
to overfiowing last evening with a most
appreciative and enthusiastic audience.
who came to listen to the second elocu-
tionary recital of the pupils of Miss Isa-
bel F. Ahearn.
The recital. as a whole. was one OF the
most clever performances OF it's kind
ever given in this city, and that II was
intensely enjoyed was proved by the fact
that-despite the fact that the length of
the program was such as to prolong the
performance well on toward the mid
night hour--yet there was no evidence of
fatigue or lack Of enthusiasm on the
part of the audience.
From the very beginning Of the recital
IL was clearly apparent to all that Miss
Ahearn had succeeded in grouping to-
gether material Of no ordinary charac-
ter material which, i'm some instances,
might be easily classed under the head
of art.
This was true. perhaps. of the work
OF Miss Clara Kirwin as Prince Sun
BEAM" in the Royal Reception in Ven
ice." and again as 'Pygmalion" in the
scene between Pygmalion and Galatea.
The church scene from Leah the For
saken' was one OF the most interesting
things on the program and Miss Anna
Herbert as Leah" scored a distinct sue
cess by her really admirable personation
OF the difficult role of Leah"
A delightful portion OF the program
was the Royal Reception i'm Venice"
introducing a number of fancy dances
and evolutions. which were admirably
executed; the beautiful costumes OF the
dancers and the vari-colored lights
which were thrown upon the stage, all
combining TO create a scene OF great
beauty. reminding one of a glimpse into
fairy land.
Still another beautiful picture was the
Floral Cascade" while the Flower
Song from Faust" by Miss Irma Car
diner was one OF the most pleasing
things on the program. Special mention
should also be made of the "Castanet
Dance" beautifully and most gracefully
executed by number OF the pupils and
also of the "Gainsborough Court Min
uet"
The work OF the little ones was an
unfailing source OF amusement and

lection with the liberal sentiments OF
the present day.
Governor Cummins has outlined
policy that if carried out will lead to
complete triumph in every congress
sional district of the state.
There is no uncertainty in the Cou-
rier's plain expression. 1t aligns that
newspaper with the Cedar Rapids plat
form and with Governor Cummins
plainly-stated rendering of its mean
ing. Coming from a journal Of the
Courier's high political standing and
influence it means much. The Courier
was strenuously opposed to Mr.. Cum
minis during the gubernatorial cam
paign. 1t is published in district
which was at that time strongly anti
Cummins with all that the term i'm
piled from the opening of the campaign
to the 7th of August Remembering all
this the Courier's present attitude may
be taken to mean not only that the
Courier is convinced of the correct
ness Of the governors position, but
that his lucid statement has left the
Danites of the antiCummins propa-
ganda without word to say or an eX
cuse for action and has the courage to
say so plainly. Will the destroying an.
gels exhibit a like manliness and con.
sistency?

handled, in order to see whether or
not it had been endorsed. This would
prove in actual business transactions
to be an intolerable nuisance. Again,
remittances are not Gener-
ally in exact sums of
$1OO, $500 or $500. OF in the ordinary
fractional parts thereof. This would
necessitate the use of postage stamps
in large aggregate amounts, in order
70 make up the desired
exact sum of each remit
lance, and would thus defeat the
very reform it is desired to bring
about. Again, every postmaster
knows that the average individual
cannot correctly fill out the simple ap-
plication blank for a money order.
How, then, can they be expected to
correctly fill out and endorse piece
Of money, which thereupon will be-
come check or bill of exchange, and
which must have postage stamp
properly attached and cancelled?
j.. T. Metcalf, superintendent of
the postal money order system of the
United States, is, we believe, the best
posted man in the country on matters
of this character. If congress will fol
low his suggestions the country will
soon be supplied with safe, cheap
and convenient system of transmitting
small sums of money which will fill all
the requirements, and at the same
time avoid the manifest disadvantages
of the post-check system as present
ed to congress.

IOWA AT ST. LOUIS.

Hon. Leroy A. Palmer of Mt Pleas
ant, the first district member of the
ST. Louis commission, is firmly of the
opinion that the first thing that the
commission ought to do after it meets
to organize is to go to st. Louis in a
body and select site for the Iowa
building Several of the states have al
ready selected their sites and in a
short time there will be no more avail
able that will be satisfactory The
Iowa building should have good To-
cation and the members of the COM
mission will do well, in the opinion of
Mr.. Pamer, to look after this important
matter at once. He also believes that
all of the members of the commission
should visit st. Louis for this purpose
in order that they may be satisfied
with the location selected. Other mat
tiers may be delegated to sub-commit-
tees, but this one is of so great i'm
portance that it will undoubtedly be
decided by the whole commission. Mr..
Palmer will undoubtedly be on the
committee which will have the cree.
ton of the building in charge, especial
| ly as far as the plans are concerned.
He is a student of architecture and
probably has better idea of the ar
chitecture of the noted buildings of
| the nation than any other man in this
state, who is not member of the pro-
| fession.
| A sentiment seems to exist among
the members of the commission and
others interested in the matter that
only two things need to be done by
the commission at the present time
First will be the organization which
will be followed by the appointment oil
the committees. 1t is hardly probable
that permanent and salaried secre
tary will be elected at the present
time The second thing to be done as
suggested by Mr.. Palmer is the selection
of suitable site for the Iowa building
When these two matters are disposed
of the other work of the commission
can wait for time. The SECOND
thing to be done as suggested by Mr.
Palmer is the selection of suitable
site for the Iowa building. Wher
these two matters are disposed of the
other work of the commission can wal
for time, as the exposition has beer
Il will keep at work and will be ready tt
report in good season, but the com
mission itself will have little to do
;. Especially will this be the case if tn,
whole commission visits st. Louis tt

settled while there and no secont
meeting will be required, as would b.
necessary If the matter should be dele
gated to subcommittee. The com
mission will meet to organize July l.

GO SLOW ON THE POST CHECK

The advocates of the proposed new
post-check currency scheme are to be
commended for the effort which they
are making to secure for the use of
the public more convenient, cheap
and available system of transmitting
small sums of money from one part of
the country to another. The agitation
will undoubtedly bring about an en-
largement of the scope of the existing
money order system that will prove of
great benefit and convenience to the
public generally. At the same time
the investigation which has been
made by committee of high treas
ury and postoffice officials has dem
onstrated that there are inherent de-
fects in the proposed post-check cur
rency scheme itself that are fatal to
the accomplishment of the very result
that it is desired to bring about.
The principle of a currency that
may be used either as money or as a
medium of transmitting money is, we
believe, fundamentally wrong. II
would necessftate the close scrutiny Of
every bill of small denomination
