A Fine Lecture.

Prof N. E. Wilson gave the last of
the University Extension Lectures in
the school house on May 18th. His
lecture was an unusually fine one, for
his entertaining remarks and magnifi-
cent views combined to give most en-
joyable and instructive pastime for
those who came to hear him.
1t is strange to say that all the lee
lures during the winter months have
been poorly attended. Possibly they
did not have enough of the bull-fght
nature, or it may be that they were too
much on the educational plan to prove
of interest to those who have no inter
est in such matters. Be that as it may,
these lectures have been a source of
valuable instruction to the pupils, for
whom they were primarily intended.

Schutzen Fest.

The Germans had breezy time in
Waterloo Sunday and Monday cele-
brating their observance of White
sunday with a Schutzen Fest or Shoot
ing Feast. 1t is still better known as
an old fashioned Dutch Picnic. In
Germany White Sunday comes around
once year. The festivities continue
for three days and three nights, and
the fermented essence of hop juice is
served in abundance to quench the
thirst of the sport-loving natives OF
Emperor Williams domain.
About 300 people attended the doings
Sunday. A large dancing platform
was constructed, enclosed with canvass,
and the floor was crowded with dan
GERS both day and night. A brass
band from Gardnerville, consisting OF
seven pieces, discoursed sweet music
for the occasion. The big baritone
horn is an especial favorite of the
Germans, the key board of this instru-
ment being manipulated by Bert
Selkirk, of the Record staff, in a man.

Gracefully Turned.

Disraeli's resourceful wit enabled
him to play the courtier at all times
and to give-as In an instance which
the London Daily Chronicle recalls-a
complimentary turn even to satire.
Soon after he had received his title
and had become the Earl Of Beancons-
field IN old peer greeted the new peer
one day and asked him how he felt.
Beaconsfield was just walking away
from the house of lords. but his
thought seems to have been in the
house Of commons. for he said:

The old peer looked aghast.

The old peer smiled again and loved

At Everett's Camp.

A little excitement was created Mon
day, when Dan Prindible, the foreman,
undertook to make big Indian get
off the ditch. Dan ordered the redman
off twice and the third time took meas
ures to make him move. The Indian
grappled the foreman around the leg,
and lively hand-to-hand battle took
place. 1t was laughable when the two
giants rolled down the side of the
mountain, locked in each others en-
brace. When they reached the bottom
Prindible got in few of Jeffries' latest
jabs, which ended the racket, and the
