An Ant Headline.

An English weekly, speaking of head fines, tells of an excellent one which appeared over a story of the Pigott forgery. In that case one of the de vices by which Sir Charles Russell brought the unfortunate forger to bay was by getting him to write the woro "hesitancy." In the forged letter the word was misspelled "hesitency." The day the flight of Pigott was announced an editor suggested the headline, "The Man Who 'Hesitetes' Is Lost" and 1t was so excellent that It was immedi- ately put in type.

Last evening there was fair sized au-
dience gathered in the large auditorium az
the Providence Y. NJ. c. A. TO enjoy the
concert OF the Glee clubs OF Brown uni
versity The audience was not as large
ss might have been expected, but in en-
thusiasm IL made up entirely for what
n lacked In numbers.
The concert Itself was a very excellent
one so far as the program went and the
performance OF the members OF the clubs.
The chief attraction, however. was the
ability of Master Charles r. Cornell the
boy cornetist from the Cornet Conserva-
tory OF Boston. THIS young player has so
far mastered the technique OF the cor
net as to obtain some OF the most mar
yelous effects from the instrument and
HIS playing last evening delighted his au-
dience "a we'll as displayed the skill Of
a master.
There was n hearty call for an encore
whenever he appeared on the stage not
as a compliment so much as because OF
the genuine delight furnished 20 the au-
dence by his work. The work OF the
Glee clubs was above in many ways the
usual standard, a fact which reflects
much credit both upon the management
and the directors as we'll as the members
themselves. The selections were ali rem
dered with spirit and a blending OF the
voices that Is beyond the usual. The
quartet sang with exceptionally good
voice. Mr.. KAndall's playing upon the
violin was also enjoyable. displaying
much ability. The program rendered was
