THE OLD RED CRADLE.

Twas just a little old red cradle
That used 70 stand against fbe wall,
Twas worn and marked and badly bai-
tered.
Though once the nest Of a baby small :

And little, TOO. Of carver's art,
But once il held a precious baby
That VOL a place 10 every heart
His eyes were bright and blue and pretty.
His dimples. TOO. a wee. wee speck,
4 little hair. but soft as velvet
With pretty chin and fair white neck f:
And be could kiss. o. like a fairy.
There never was 50 sweet a mouth,

sweeter than zephyrs from the South
Bur. now the old red cradles empty.

No one was the least disappointed in
Graustark at New Music Hall Thursday
evening The play is thriller" some
thing doing every minute and is even
more absorbing in interest than the
book, if such a thing is possible. The
company is unusually good. Alfred
Britton as Grenfall Lorry reminded his
audience of Southern in Rupert of Hent-
Eau and Miss Perry as Yetive, Prin-
cess of Graustark, in her beautiful
gowns and fine stage presence was very
attractive. The most popular part in
the play was Harry Anguish, as inter
preted by II. 0. Taylor, who seemed to
be the part not merely acting it..
Another favorite was John Burkell, in
the part of "Sitsky," Bowery lad, who
appeared in the first act only, much to
the regret of his audience.
Scenery and costumes were alike good
and had the date been anytime except
during the holidays the company would
probably have been greeted by the
large audience it deserved. AS it was the
applause was generous, especially at the
close of act II when the curtain had to
be raised several times.

Y. M. L. A. Notes.

The Senior basket ball team played the
Lyndonville town team at Lyndonville,
Wednesday night. The game was
played with great difficulty as the floor
had been waxed for dancing and there
were plenty of tumbles. The teams were
evenly matched and not until the third
period did the visiting team gain the
lead by splendid passing and good
shooting, The Y. NJ, c. A. team won by
the score of % to IT.
The second Lyndonville team played
a picked team in the gymnasium Thurs
day night, Dec. 10, but being lighter
than their opponents, failed to make a
very good showing. The Y. NJ. c. A.
clerks team won out by a score of 50
to Is.
The Newbury High School team Wis
tied the gymnasium Friday night. ex-
peeting to win another game against
the Juniors, but our boys, though much
lighter, defeated them by the score of %
to 10. After the game the visiting team
were entertained in the parlors until
train time. The Junior team also won a
victory at Danville the past week, de-
ieating the Phillips Academy boys by
the score of22 to II.
The gymnasium classes close Dec. "a
and reopen Jan. 5. During the holidays

him to the chair on one of the busiest
DAYS oil the session, and the manner in
which he handled the business won him
many well-deserved compliments from
his fellow members. At the adjournment
several of the Senators gathered around
him and demanded that he be the Lieu
tenant Governor in 1910. The CALEDo-
MAN representative tried to get a state
ment from him as to his position, but he
declined at this time to declare himself
further than to say he was deeply CRATE
full to those who wished him success.
The candidacy Of DR.. Mead for Gov

when the genial ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
