interview With Captain JaklPveff of the
Russian battleship Petropavlovsk. He
says the captain will soon be able to
start for st. Petersburg His broken
ribs are set and the fracture Of his
skull is healed
Captain Jallloveff said that few
seconds before the explosion he ran
from the coming tower to repeat an
order to the man at the helm. On his
way he saw Colonel Agapeiff writing
particulars of the fight which had
just taken place.
Next to him was Verestchagin, the
artist, hurriedly drawing. All of a
sudden the explosion occurred and the
deck of the flagship was enveloped in a
heavy mist pierced by tongues of fire
bursting through all parts of the YES
sci.
Captain Jakloveff was then struck on
tic head and lost consciousness.
The same correspondent describes
the Submarine boat experiments at
proved their ability to remain under
water for a considerable time, and
that the boats were well handled and
that there is a sufficient number Of
them to assure the protection Of Port
Arthur and the coast in its vicinity.

respondent further says, are praying
for a Russian victory.

A FINE MUSICALE RECITAL
Given by the Pupils Of Miss
Katharine's A. Rood's Class
at the Congregational Church
Thursday Evening.

at the Congregational Church
Thursday Evening.
A large audience gathered last
Thursday evening, in the auditorium
of the Congregational church to
listen to the June Musicale given by
the pupils of Miss Katharine Rood's
class. The aSSemblage was an
unusually happy one, composed of
parents, and the friends of those who
took part, together with the music
lovers OF our town.
The sentiment of the benefit was an
attraction to the church building
fund and the musical alcove of the
public library. The attractive pro-
gram consisting of three parts, each
complete in its opening, climax, and
close, promised musical treat,
and was eagerly anticipated by the
audience.
Part was given by the youngest
members of Miss Rood's class known
among themselves as the Nip and
Tuck" class. This part opening with
a charming little Overture from
Gurlitt, was followed by nine dainty
selections very nicely rendered by
Kittie Smith, Reginald MacKinnon,
Irma johnson, Mildred MacKlnnon,
Grace Goggins and Walter Wood.
Part II brought out the work of the
middle and advanced grades, open
ing with brilliant piano duet from
Neyin, given by Miss Fern Love and
Miss Rood. The climax was reached
by numbers that were executed in a
manner that would do credit to the
concert stage.
The piano solo of the visiting
assisting pupil, Miss Faye Jackson, of
Fond du Lac, was an additional
attraction to the program also the
violin obligato given by Frank Nat
wick. Unfortunately Miss Pray was
unable to come but the audience were
gratifed in the rendition of Men,
delssohn's Hunting Song given by
Miss Ruby ST. Amour, now of Eau
Claire, and former pupil of Miss
ROod's.
The piano numbers Of Part III were
given entirely by Mrs. Jennie Webb
Taylor. Sue was assisted by Misses
Ruby Natwick and Anna Reeves, in
a beautiful arrangement for two voices
by Kiehl Of Mendelssohn, son wings
of music" and Miss Reeves. in one
of Mascheroni's favorite songs, accom-
panied by violin obligato. The piano
numbers gave strong evidence of the
exceptional talent of the performers,
and much credit is due Mrs. Taylor
for the preparation and artistic
rendition of her solos.
After the program a reception was
held by the ladies of the church, who
served ices and cakes. Those who
were there, will recall the evening" as
a most enjoyable one both from a
musical and social stand point. Miss
Rood truly has reason to feel proud
of her success in developing the
musical taste and ability of her many
promising pupils.
The ushers were MessrS. James
Nash, Guy Wood, Raymond johnson,
who were most gracious in seating
their audience.
