A Fine PIECE of work.

II tell you," exclaimed the young
medical student, "our professor is an
eminent surgeon"
Flows that?' asked his chum.
"Well, a fellow was brought in with
a crushed leg. The professor said it
must come off. But by some means or
other he cut off the wrong leg"
"Do you call that fine piece of sur
gery?"
"Wait a bit. The professor said it
would be terrible for the poor fellow
to go about with no legs at all, SO he
splintered up the crushed leg instead
of cutting that off, too, and now it is as
good as ever. An ordinary surgeon
would have left the fellow legless.
Wonderful skill, the professor's!'

An Arabian story.

An Arab and his wife were constant
ly quarreling, and the wife always
went straightway to her father and
made complaint. One day the Arab
boxed the ears of his better half,
whereupon she went again to her IA

On Friday, January 8, Miss Electa Gift
ford will appear in a Shakespearean re
cital at the Toler Auditorium. The New
York Musical Courier of November has
tie following to say of Miss Clifford 5
tour of Australia:
Reports Of Miss Electa Gifford's sue
cess in Australia. which country the
young American soprano Isl now touring
in company with Gerardy, the celebrated
cellist, continue to reach there shores.
After six concerts each in Sydney and
Melbourne, Miss Clifford sang at Bris-
bane. The Australasian of that city
commenting upon Miss Gifford's singing,
had the following to say:
Miss Electa Clifford is wonderfully
popular, her toilets being the talk of
the town. Miss Gifford's trained voice.
her artistic little German songs, and her
elegant courtesies constitute hers a star
turn. She banks her effect on the long
sustained notes that she produces with
out apparent effort. 80

DAVID HARUM.

After the number of cheap shows that
have been here a show like the one last
night is all the more enjoyed because
of the contrast. David Harum" was
the show, and it certainly was a good
one
The play portrays David Harum as the
principal character. He Is typical
Yankee horse trader with banking as a
side business. He is a genial healthy
old soul, who is never out of humoI
with anything or anybody. Whoever can
stand a balky horse like David did and
can so successfully dispose of it is a
born trader.
Mr.. w. II. Turner has the character OF
David, and to see him On the stage one
would suppose he was David in reality
instead of one acting the part. He has
the ability of being perfectly natural
upon the stage and has evidently stud
led the character until it is a part of him
self
Running through the play is a love
story that is a major part of the plot.
This is ably carried out by Starr King
walker and Miss Dorothy Turner as the
hero and heroine.
The remainder of the company is above
the average with a few exceptions. The
scenery forms no small part of the per-
Torrance. The old farm and bank are
shown and in the first act horse Is
introduced in the play, and forms an i'm
portant part in the horse trade in the
first act.
