The band concert last evening

The band concert last evening
was a very pleasant entertain
ment, and a large crowd was
on the streets. Many COM
plants were heard with regard
to the boys who are in the
habit of showing off" around
the stand and make nearly
as much noise as the music.
1t is just and proper that every
one should enjoy these public
concerts, but there is no good
reason why rowdyism should
be tolerated and it is hoped
that Mayor Withrow will issue
an order that these boys be
taken care Of next Wednesday
night as they should be.

Perhaps this is bit out of the regu. lar order of things. but these ideas seemed to me so good and practical that I thought the department readers should hear of them.
 The young daughter of the house had brought home from time to time specimens of her water-color work at school which were all done on the same sized paper and all were flower subjects.
 They were so good that with . mothers inspiration she decided to make then: into freize for the child's room. Accordingly, they were put up, separated by inexpensive molding in- to panels; the side walls were a plain gray cartridge paper. so the effect was decidedly harmonious and pleasing.
 Then 10 shut out the view of too observing neighbor the window sill was covered by a board that just fitted, then this board was coated with g good thickness of cement, which was obtained from some obliging workmen who were laying a walk hi the vicinity. In this cement a row of decorative cheap English ware plates were imbedded and on these plates potted plants stood. making a most beautiful and effective screen.

NEW YORK, April 9.--The curtain began to come down on the dramatic trial of Harry K. Thaw, charged with the murder of Stanford White, when Attorney Dolphin NJ. Delmas, the Cali f0rnia advocate, began his long antici- pated address to the jury on behalf of the accused young Pittsburger.
 In the midst of an expectant throng Delmas began what he had promised would be the greatest effort of an ora torical experience in forty years. Stand ing bolt upright in his long black coat, he read first these words from Je- rome's famous speech of few days ago:
