SHOW SPLENDID TRAINING.
The Pupils Of the Parochial School at
Red Wilma.

The Auditorium was filled last even
ing with the friends and patrons OF
the st. Joseph's Parochial school. who
had gathered to listen to the enter
tainment given by the children of that
institution. says the Red Wing Re-
publican of the 10th inst.
The program consisted of piano
solos, duets and trios by different
pupils, varying from young ladies to
little tots of or summers and with
out exception the music was we'll rem.
dered and some of the parties demon
strated unusual ability in expression.
There were also drills dialogues
and pantommes and play of two
scenes. To speak of these each in de-
tail is unnecessary, except to allude
to them The firecracker drill par
ticipated in by a dozen or more boys
vocol solo was, like all her work, ex-
cellently rendered and much appre-
ciated; the municipal officers for the
city of Red Wing for 1880 were very
effectively introduced by a bright
group of lads; nothing more effective
and pleasing during the evening was
given than the Star Spangled Banner,
pantomimed by young girls; Ger
man dialogue, "Kasperl ais Photo
1ranh" showed the good training
which some of the pupils have re-
ceived in their study of German and
In itself was very amusing and gro
tesque.
The closing number vas THE May
Queen in two acts, participated in
by large number of girls of the
school. The older girls as contestants
for the crown and the younger ones
as chorus and flower girls took their
parts beautifully and presented a
very delightful picture of joy and
gladness. Miss Gerlach as Princess
Good Will and Miss Herder as Char
ity, the May Queen, deserve special
commentator.
5 The participants all did creditably
and gave an evening of much enjoy
ment to all who attended. The exer-
cises reflect highly, not only upon the
children, but upon the faithful corps
u them.

A tramp has beaten all known
records by swimming twenty-seven
miles in thirty minutes. He did not
intend to do it. He merely tried to
steal ride from Dodge City to La
Junta on the rear of a locomotive
tender. When the train started up
he fell over backward. through the
open manhole. into the water tank.
Noise of the train drowned his cries
for help and he was obliged to swim
until the first stop was reached.
When taken out he was nearly dead,
but the engineer was so unfeeling as
to call his attention to the fact that
the water was only four feet deep
and he might have stood up. The
conductor, also unfeeling, asked him
for his ticket. but the tramp said
he did not come by rail. but by
water.
