the program today being taken up
with the block demonstrations by Hon
John Goslins of Kansas City. On &C,
count of the inclement weather, it was
decided at a late hour last night to
hold these at the university, to the end
that ladies' might be able to take ad.
vantage of the instruction in this i'm.
portant branch Of domestic science,
The Woman's club adjourned its meet
ing this afternoon and attended in a
body and many other ladies listened
with marked interest to the lectures
by Mr.. Gosling. Much amusement was
created by the poem, IAN Ode to a
Piece Of Meat and the irrepressible
punster of the party demanded infor-
nation as to how long the authoress
of the rhymes had owed for it.
The entertainment given at the uni
versity last night by members of the
faculty complimentary to the short
course visitors was exceptionally fine.
and the enthusiastic encores must have
proved highly pleasing to those who
contributed to the splendid program.
The idea was generally held that a
hurlesque was to be the order for the
evening, but the program as published
was presented after all. Miss June
Downey did indeed preface her read
iEgs from her recent book with a
clever little screed lampoOning the stu
dents who had been wasting brain mat
ter urgently needed for future eXami-
nations in trying to be funny, and the
general opinion was hat she emerged
"A Prairie Trail" and Whom the
Potter Forgot" were heard with mark
ed interest and pleasure. A Laramie
audience had for the first time the
opportunity of hearing President Tis-
de! in renditions of Shakespeare, and
his readings from Julius Caesar" were
pronounced both strong and true. Shake
spearean devotees eagerly anticipate
more extended selections from DR.. It's
del at an early date. The musical mum
bers of the evening were equally good,
the initial appearance of the Faculty
Chorus stamping immediately with sue
cess the new organization. The mem
beers of the club who appeared last
night were Mrs. Trumbull, Miss Dow
ney and Miss Meader, Prof. Soule,
Prof. Merz, Prof. Morton and Prof.
Trumbull, with Mrs. Clark as accom-
PIANIST. The vocal numbers were by
Mrs. Trumbull and Mrs. Stockwell, and
each received enthusiastic encores.
Mrs. Trumbulrs voice is a mezzo CON
tIalto as novel here as it is rarely
sweet, and her perfect enunciation and
graceful manner add a charm to her
work which has given her already a
place with the leading singers of Lar
annie, both present and past. She re-
sponded to her encore with the beau
tiful song, 81 love You, Dear" Mrs.
Stockwell, who is enhancing this sea
son the enviable reputation she earn.
ed last year, gracefully bowed acknowl-
edgments of the pleasure manifested
at her number. Mrs. Clark and Prof.
Merz divided the honors for instrument
tai work, their succeeding appearances
constantly adding to the marked favor
with which their numbers are heard,
and to hold the close attention of such
a large and cosmopolitan audience
with either the piano or the violin be-
tokens a rare combination of genius
and culture. Surely, the University
of wyoming has reason to congratulate
herself again upon the possession OF
a faculty so diversified in its talents
and of such marked ability n a vote
of thanks for the entertainment is in
order, not only from the short course
and regular students of the institution,
but also from the citizens who had the
privilege of attending the enteratin-
ment last night.
