4 small church was sadly in need
of repairs, and a meeting was held
in it with a view to raising funds
for the purpose. The minister hav-
ing said $500would be needed, a very
wealthy and stingy member arose
and said he would give a dollar.
Just as he sat down lump of
plaster fell from the ceiling and hit
him on the head, whereupon he rose
up hastily and said that he had
made mistake, that be would give
$50. This was too much for an en-
thusiastic member present, who,
forgetful of everything, called out
fervently: ooh, Lord, hit him againl

mediately the reporter was struck
with Il bright idea, and wishing
his genial acquaintance good bye,
repaired once more to the Carnegie
mansion, and presented both his
own card and that of the Senator's.
The great doors swung open, and a
gracious reception was accorded to
the newspaper man by the master
of the house.

PROF. KAHN'S CLASS.
A Notable Occasion Of the YIN. CA.
Last Tuesday Evening.

~
n Is an unusual event that the Young
Mems Christian Association Hall Is
crowded, not only the lower floor, but
also the gallery. Such, however, was the
case on Tuesday night last, when the
music class OF Professor sigmund Kahn.
gave their first public recital before a
large and apprecintive audience. The
programme for the occasion was partic-
tularly we'll chosen and scholarly, includ-
ing In its numbers all of the classic COM
poscrs. 1t Is safe TO say that, notwith-
standing the difficult and eXacting task
thus imposed upon the performers. not
one Of them was found disqualied, but
on the contrary the programme was rem
dered with the most delightful smooth
ness, interrupted only by the many out
bursts Of applause which the .,f excellent Ter
particuarlzed by the keenness OF express
sion and the precision of technique. This
was especially marked In tho perform-
ances OF those OF the graduating class
The graduating class consisted OF MISSES
Sutherland, fmith, Harvey and Delarue.
OF the minor pupils who participated IN
the programme 1t remains but to be said
that they rendered their portion with tho
utmost ease, and, like the moro advanced
ones, proved themselves Individually equal
to the test assigned them.
Besides the piano TeCltal tHere were MO
vocal solos by pupils of Professor kahn's
vocal class. The first was sung by Mr..
BOYD, the second by Miss Caron, both of
whom were encored. In conclusion oc-
eason j. taken to ssy somet ears q t r1o.

efforts Of his pupils pro5sss4r k a. IS

severity of the climate, however, COM
pelled him to make change, So after
Visiting several cities he selected this one
as mis- future home. Professor Kahn has
been here not quite three years but dur
ing that shert length OF time he has made
signally rapid progress. and has been rec
ognised as a careful and thorough instruc-
tor and a musician of rare attachments.
The diplomas were presented by Rev.
w. r. Il. Smith, ID. D.. who delivered q
very pleasing and approprlata address, IN
which he highly complimented Professor
Kahn and his pupils.
