The house of God shall no longer be

Love of You" and WORLDLY Hopes" from

| proved another popular selection. In fact
/ it is difficult to Discriminate in Miss Si-
monds songs. for they were all beauti-
fully rendered. Miss Simonds was as

The announcement has been made that
the Euterpe Club incorporated) will give
a public concert March 20, in the BAN
quet hall of the New Willard. The mu-
sicales given by this club during the
winter have been deservedly ranked
among the musical events in this city
and at each one of them the rooms OF
the Washington Club have been filled
with attentive and enthusiastic audi
ences. For the proposed concert at the
New Willard the club will contrve to
present a programme worthy of the en-
viabIe reputation which it has achieved,
and its past successes would seem to fur
nish a guarantee that in the present in
stance the expectations of its admirers
will be realized.
One of the most important musical
events of the current week will be the
initial local appearance of the violinist
Florizei, who, at the age of nine, is ere
ating furore among the musicians and
musical critics of the country. FIorizel
is a bright little fellow in knee pants,
parts of violin literature with incom-
parable cleverness. His repertoire in
cludes such noted compositions as the
Mendelssohn Concerto for violin, the
Aria of Bach, the Lcgende of Wieniawski.

All these he has memorized. Technical
difficulties seem unknown to him. Flori-
eel will give HI nrsi recital in this city

''onetta'' whirled herself and 5000 peo-
pie dizzy last night and had the big
crowd at the Elks' carnival clamoring for
more, as she did various wonderful feats
with a common chair.
She was not the only attraction at the
big vaudeville show which the Elks have
provided for Washington's amusement,
but she was easily the best. as all who
witnessed the performance declared. She
is very slender girl, born in Harrisburg,
and features as captured at the early
age OF five years from real live Der

Crystal Maze" is silent, amusing,
and expensive construction. And the
Elks' Old Country Store is an odd novelty
that can only be seen in reality in some
interior rural district. The Elks who
have charge of this store have not got a
sinecure by any means, as they are kept
busy dispcsing of the many articles that
they have on sale, and shouting to at
tract attention in competition to the
bally-hooers with come of the other fea-
lures.

Northern Penple Coming south-WOrk Of
Southern Railway.

The cry of the time is for cheap
land, cheap in price, but rich IN pro-
ductiveness. Land has become 80
high in the middle West that farm
ers are looking elsewhere for a more
favorable location where they can
become owners and not renters. The
Southern States are offering some
exceptionally good bargains in land
values and in locations are easily
accessible to railroads. A demon
stration of what these lands can pro-
duce was exemplitied in the fine OK
hibit shown on the Iowa State Fair
grounds last week by the Southern
Railway. Fair visitors were amazed
to see what can be raised in South
ern States, and especially was this
noticeable in the many varieties OF
grain grown. The showing of fruit
could not be excelled anywhere, and
the grasses grown for fodder were
the equal of anything in that line.
There is a fine field for the Northern
farmer in the South, and many of
those who have gone down there
have made a great success of their
farming. These lands are suitable
for every branch of agriculture and
can be purchased at a low figure.
This is especially so in the States OF
Virginia, the two Carolinas, Georgia,
| Alabama, Mississippi. Tennessee and
Kentucky. Mr.. John F. Olsen, who
had charge of this fine exhibit on the
| fair ground, said to a representa-
tive of ''The Homestead" that the
| people of the North were fast finding
out that a good farm. in the South
was very valuable, and that other
grain besides cotton could be grown
at profit No section of the United
States can offer a better place for
stock raising, at less cost, than
the South. Water and pasture are
| in abundance Not an acre Of this
land requires irrigation to make it
productive. If any of our readers
are seeking a home where land Is
cheap and very productive the eli
mate genial and heslthful education
al facilities good, and where success
can be most easily obtained, they
should write to Mr.. John F. Olsen,
land and industrial agent of the
Southern Railway Co., 225 Dearborn
st., Chicago, ILL.,, and he will be
| pleased to answer all inquiries and
furnish maps and pamphlets descrip-
tive of this new South.

Well begin with box, and the plural
is boxes,
But the plural of OK should be oxen, not
oxes.
The one fowl is a goose, but two are
called geese,
Yet the plural of mouse should never be
meese.
You may fed lone mouse or whole
nest of mice,
But the plural of house is houses, not
hice.
If the plural of man is always called
/. men,
Why shouldn't the plural Of pan be
called pen?
The cow in the plural may be COWS or
kline,
But a row if repeated is never called
rine,
And the plural of VOW is vows, never
vine.
If I speak of foot and you show me
your feet,
And I give you boot would a pair be
called beet?
If one is a tooth and whole set are
teeth,
Why shouldn't the plural of booth be
called beeth?
IF the singular's this and the plural is
these,
Should the plural of kiss ever knick-
named keese?
Then one may be that and three woulc
be those.
Yet hat in the plural would never be

And the plural of cat is cats, not COS
