others Rue Day lnsersoll Passed.

A full house marked the union servi
ces Sunday night at the First Methodist
church. The sermon was preached by
Rev. Fred r. Graves of Helena. Ark,
who is filling the pulpit of the First
Presbyterian church for a few Sun
days. 1t was a very thoughtful dis
course and received the close atten-
ton of all present. The music pre-
pared on short notice was excellent,
for the service was transferred from

Dr. Graves took as his text Acts
Sis They brought forth the sick
into the streets and laid them on beds
and touches, that at the least the
shadow of Peter passing by night
overshadow some of them"
Announcing his subject as THE In
fuence of Shadows" the speaker gave
an exposition of preceding events and
then approaching his theme he said in
part:
All men exercise. an unconscious
influence on those around them. Like
Peter as they pass by their shadow
falls upon others, and brings bane or
blessing, healing power or bindering
force.
"A few years ago two of our great
men died. Thousands blessed the
memory of ID. L. Moody for the be-
nign influence he had shed over them.
On the other hand countless numbers
Of others have lived to rue the day
that Robt G. Ingersoll passed by cast
ing his blighting shadow over them.
How many lovely characters there
have been passing along the highways

life. 1t is heating. 1t quiets the
clamors of men, it rebukes their sin,
it comforts their hearts, it gives proof |
Of the existence of a life somewhere I

The possession of good influence /
is thing greatly to be desired by
every one To be able to know that

A Slight Earthquake Wednesday.


The peculiar sensations of an earth
quake were distinctly felt by large
portion Of the community hereabouts
at 8:45 o'clock Wednesday morning.
The tremor lasted but few seconds,
but the vibration was strong enough to
cause buildings to shake and rattle
dishes upon pantry shelves and other
unusual disturbances that fully estab-
lished the certainty of seismic quake.
At the telephone Office the distributing
board rocked 50 as to cause consterna-
ton to the operators for the time be-
ing. L. H. ,Towne reports that at his
home vases standing upon nantes were
overturned and some strange phenom-
ena can be told of nearly every place
where the quake was felt. Telegraphic
reports indicate thai the shock was felt
quite generally throughout southern
Wisconsin and northern Illinois, but no.
where was it severe enough to cause
any damage. Very few people within
the radius of the disturbance had ever
before experienced the sensations of a
genuine earthquake, but can well i'm
agine the alarm and horror resulting
from a more pronounced vibration OF
the earth's surface, like the SanFran-
cisco or more recent Sicily earthquake.

1.-THE King of Tramps," Yankee
Doodle comedy in four big laughing
asts, comes to Royal hall, Monday
evening, May 31st. This company is
unquestionably the best equipped or
ganization that has ever been seen in
this city. Corning direct from large
city engagements, we are assured of an
entertainment different from the usual
run of so-called musical comedies. This
company carries its own equipment of
special scenery, and comes highly rec
mended.
The entertainment given by the
children of the Junior departments of
the public schools at Royal hall, Friday
evening, called out fine audience, and
the performance was alike creditable
to both the children and the teaching
force who had the training in charge.
Songs dramatized by the pupils of the
three lower grades formed part one OF
the program. Then a cantata, "The
Land of Dolls" was produced by the
pupils of the older grades, proved a
very happy diversion. The musical
training was in charge of Miss Sewell
who must have devoted a deal of time
and patience to produce such success
full entertainment. The proceeds, which
were highly gratifying, will be devoted
to the benefit of music in the public
schools.

E. M. Hubbell's Birthday Anniversary.

Invited guests to the number of
thlrty-seven participated in the cele-
bration of the anniversary of E. M.
Hubbell's birthday last Thursday. They
We're taken by team to Mary Dell Farm
in the town of GAINESVILLE, the old home
stead where Edward passed his boy
hood days and which he now owns.
Where could he have selected more
appropriate spot or pleasanter place to
entertain company of friends on an
occasion like this? We answer, no
wherel The old farm home with its
spacious rooms, surrounded with shady
trees, the fields, the meadows, the
lanes, the hooks and recesses where
young Hubbell played his boyish pranks,
all in their way answer back, nowhere
for the nonce, and bade them welcome.
With pride and pleasure the host pilot
ed the guests around and about the farm
relating anecdotes of days gone by and
pointing to the particular fields where
his kindergarten instructions were re-
ceived in growing and garnering the
crops of the farm in early days.
In the long dining room of the home
stead house a table was set and lunch
spread which would appeal to the appe-
tite of a gathering of guests of any ma
ture, and more particularly to that of
a company of young, robust men as was
gathered together on that day. From
this table the luncheon was served and
taken to the lawn where all partook of
a good, old fashioned picnic meal.
Cigars and refreshments followed, and
short literary program was given by
some of the spicy after dinner speakers
who were present.
For an hour or more the national
game furnished the diversion. Sides
were chosen by Captains Bardeen and
Pelton and a holly contested, six-inning
game was had. Postmaster McInnes
oficiated as umpire and deponent saith
that his decisions were all snuffy and
based on the rulings of the 1909 book
in SO far as the umpire recollected
them, but his recollections were badly
scattered and hard to collect.
The old fashioned game of quoits was
played, and in fact the company took a
twist at almost every game from king
William was King James's Son" down
to Barbara-lost- track. Happiness and
harmony was complete and everybody
present declared it to be one of the
most enjoyable days ever passed, and
if Mr.. Hubbell lived to celebrate a
thousand birthday anniversaries, they
would be only too glad to join in the
festivities. As token of their esteem
and remembrance of the occasion, the
guests presented Mr.. Hubbell with
handsome couch and an umbrella.

girl executes the difficult and intricate
sword dance perfectly, and a hornpipe and
reel quite as well, while the man does both
soft shoe and wooden sole jigs, and sings
two or three Scotch songs well. Barney
Duffy is proving a live issue with his
grotesque dancing and clever acrobatics.
And there are others. Mile. Ami shows very
well on the trapeze; she is splendidly de-
veloped and executes her hazardous feats
with great ease and grace. Thu Melvin
brothers are sensational acrobats, doing the
most wonderful casting act seen here
up to the present. Frankie LaMarche and
her dog, as Buster Brown and Tige' also
score a hit. The living pictures will not
challenge very serious attention from stu
dents OF art, but persons interested in the
human form divine may get their moneys
worth from the exhibition.
The theater was packed at the perform
ances yesterday, and so enthusiastic was
the reception last night that the show con-
tinued till well on to midnight.
