BEHIND THIS

ence leading up to the purchase OF
the engines viii be carefully looked
into and a report viii be made next

poem entitled ''The Flag is Pas
sing By" and his other reading
covered a wide range Of subjects,
from a tale in the French Cana
dian dialect, "How Bateese Came
Home to pathetic little story
by Ruth McEnery Stuart, ga
Christmas Guest There was
also one of James Whitcomb
Riley's characteristic poems, "A
Bear Story" besides the interpola-
ton of number of original Jokes
and topical yarns.
A most self-possessed young
person is Master Cole, the youth
full prodigy who played the violin
SO we'll. He appeared as much at
home before the motley audience
that greeted him as he would in
some quiet drawing room sur
rounded by friends. And his
playing was quite equal to his
self-possession, his selections being
admirably rendered, showing a
mastery of technique and form far
beyond his years.
AS usual, the local choir &C.
quilted itself most creditably, and
received prolonged applause. The
choir numbers were the "Soldiers
Chorus" from Faust and solo
and chorus entitled, con the
Dreamy Susquehanna.'
The usual dollhouse privileges
were accorded the prisoners, and a
holiday dinner was served by
Steward Bordwell. The afternoon
was spent in the cells. The next
holiday to be observed at this in
stitution is Memorial Day, May 80.

Another Pleasing An entertain
Program. ment Of more
than usual excellence was given in
the chapel last Sat urday morning
in honor Of Washington's birth
day. 1t consisted Of music, both
vocal and instrumental, reading
character sketches, humorous sto-
ries and jokes. Those who lent
their aid to the occasion were Mrs
Q. b. Catlin and Master Clifford
Cole, of Minneapolis, Mr.. Charles
Fairchild, of St. Paul, and the
prison choir.
Mrs Catlin has a charming voice,
and her selections met with the
approval of her audience. Her
first number was ''Creole Love
Song" after which she sang "You''
as an encore. She also sang a
tuneful little waltz song, "Merrily
We ROAM" which scored a decid-
ed hit with the house.
"Charlie" Fairchild has lent his
assistance to merrymakings in
this institution many times before
and is always sure of rousing re.
ception. His efforts were never
more appreciated than they were
last Saturday, his selections hit
ting the popular taste to a nicely.
His first number was patriotic

Some Interesting Few persons,
Statistics. even among
those within these walls, have any
idea of the great amount of mail
matter that comes in and goes out
of here during the course of a
year. There are some $50 odd in
mates here, most of whom write at
least once fortnight and receive
more or less letters and all of
WHOM get at least one paper or
magazine a week, so on the face of
it, there is a good deal Of mail to
be handled.
Usher johnson, part of whose
duty it is to look over the papers
coming in and read the letters
going both ways through his Office,
kept record separate from
his regular books of the mail that
passed through his hands last
week. He says the week was a
light one, but here is the record:
1858 papers came in on The
MIRROR exchange list: $40 mag
azines and papers were re-
ceived for inmates; 351 letters were
received and read, and $50 were
sent out. This in addition to a
number of packages, etc.

A sort of gentle
lassitude was the

The ohautauqua A sort of gentle
Meeting. lassitude was the
noticeable feature of the Chautau-
qua meeting Sunday afternoon-a
sort of lassitude imbued with a
strong desire to be good. With
one exception, all the papers read
dealt mainly with moral and re-
ligious topics; and the members
nodded appreciatively, but re-
fused to enter into much discus
sion. On the whole the papers
showed care in preparation, and
we're improvements on the last
ones delivered by the same NOM
bers. The article by "Pendennis'
on the American mechanic was an
able production and was we'll de-
livered. 1t called forth numerous
expressions of approval.
AS usual, the music was excel
lent, the selections being appro-
pirate and the way it was rem
dered reflected credit on both glee
club and instructor.
Undoubtedly the feature of the
day was the report of the critic,
who not only criticised the per-
Torrance of the members, but
made a little merriment out of
their manners and weaknesses
