ing repast in the dining room the
young folks rendered some excellent
music in the sitting room. Miss May

times were the older folks seen to
leave their work and gather around
the door to listen to the music.
After enjoying their lunch, Mrs.

The railroad situation seems not to
have changed very much since our
last issue. The people in the eastern
part of Brown township seem to be so
intent on trying to secure some special
advantage that they may stir up so
much disturbance that the bonds will
be defeated in their township. 1t was
agreed that a station should be loca-
ted at point nearest to the people in
the western end of Brown as it would
still leave them farther from the road
than The people in the eastern part.
but some of the latter seem to think
that a station should also be located
on the east side to- accommodate them.

miles. No road in the country would

and to insist On the proposition is an
absurdity. This proposition is being
pushed by parties trying to secure
selfish advantage or by parties who
want the bonds beaten. A committee
of these petitioners met the officers of

OrpheuS Concert

The Orpheus company gave con-
cert at Flohr's opera house last Sat
urday night under the auspices of the
Knights of Pythias. 1t was the best
concert ever given in Kinsley without
any exception, because Jean ST.
Remy, the vocalist, has the finest
voice that Kinsley has ever had
the privilege of hearing. 1t va
clear aud true, possessing liquid
quality rare in voice. She is IL
dramatic singer, and d most pleasinl
personality added much to the artistic
effect of her work. She sung one
number from Wilson, The Italian
Waltz" and another from Muller +,
'sStaccato Polka" closing with a
ballad, "Day-Dream, by Strelelzki,
with violin obligatn.
Bernhard Walther, the violinist,
gave two violin solos that alone were
sufficient for an evenings entertain
.nent to music lovers. He plays with
exquisite taste; his mobilization and
expression are perfect. He is the
artist every moment on the platform,
and does not accompany himself with
the usual 'violiu cnutortions."
Katherine De We're is fine pianist
and Dorothy Walsworth's reading
was very good.
