Miss lAQUlrS FINAL RECITAL
Was a Repetition Of the Success Of the
First Evening.

The last of Miss La Quay's fare
well reeitals at the Methodist church
last evening was in all respects a re-
petition Of the notable success of the
former evening, with possibly a pro-
gram of even greater excellence. A
large audience thoroughly enjoyed
the entire evening and manifested
approval throughout by generous ap-
plause.
The orchestra numbers proved pop
ular features as they did on the pre-
ceding evening and the violin selec-
tons by Miss La Quay's more advanc-
ed pupils gave evidence of much tai
ent and high degree of training.
Miss Florence Mcclure and Miss Arta
Goff were especially fine and Little
Jennie Daniels showed that she is a
real artist from whom great things
may be expected in the future.
Miss lmhoff and Mrs. Hatfield gave
most pleasing vocal numbers and Mrs.
Mcclure, whose reputation as a sing
er is by no means confined to this
city, captivated the audience with hei
marvellous voice.
Two numbers were given by Mis-
La Quay, VII Concerto by De Beriot
and "Cavatina" by Raft; and in boti
tne player displayed talent and skill
which promise to give her place am
ong the celebrated violinists Of th'
country. $3.50 = ''sA4 -

and the horses became frightened and
reared This caused the ice to give way
md the carriage was partly submerged.
As 1t slipped to enc side the Senator
was thrown into the water The other
men tried TO get him back into the vehi-
Gle, but be hoated under the ice and for
a tine it was feared he would be

The horses were whipped up til they
reached solid ice. then companions OF
the Senator got out and going to the spot
where the Senator was struggling in the
ley water, managed 10 drag him out
| Just as he was about to sink from ex-
haustion When the Senator was taken
out Of the carriage mis- clothing was
frozen to him and he was in a serious
