Beautiful programs were pre-.
sented BY Prof. ]. w. Dale as each
auditor entered the hall. Each
program was embellished with a
fine steel engraving OF President
Lincoln.
The first number was a piano
and cornet duet by Mrs. A. Hux-
sol and w. G Hafer. This was
Mrs. Huxsol's first appearance be-
fore Culbertson audience as a
musician and it has just dawned
upon our citizens that another art

in our midst. Mr.. Hafer's ability
as player Of band instruments IS

After the Invocation by Rev.

AUTUMN LEAVES.
The Change Of color From Green 20
BED or YsIIoM or Brown.

The Change Of coler From Green 10
Red or yellow or Brown.
Despite the commonness Of autumn
colorings, we do not vet know the full
meaning Of autumn colors Of leaves.
We do know that late in the summer
the tree is preparing for the leaf fan
by drawing the valuable substances Of
the leaf into the stem. II also ceases
to make chlorophyI (the green sub
stance Of the leaf which aids IN the
making Of the plants food, and this
gradually fades away In the bright
light. By fading It exposes TO view
any other colors In the leaf, and all
leaves contain yellow coloring matters
called xanthophyi whose function is
not known, and It Is these which give
the yellow color 10 autumn leaves.
The red Is formed differently. In
bright light aud cool temperature a
new substance, called erythrophyl. ia
made from sugar and tannin ia the leaf
cells. and that has a red color. A
brown substance is also sometimes
formed, and. besides. the skeleton OF
the leaf Itself turns brown as the leaf
dies. II is the various combinations Of
these substances that give the many
shades Of autumn coIors Some stu
dents think these coiors are a useful
protection to the living protoplasm 0ife
materiaD Of the leaf after the green
disappears, protecting It against the
full blaze OF light, which Is injurious,
but others think the colors have no use
at all but are simply the incidental
chemical result Of the processes in the
rlpening and dying leaf.
As yet the weight OF evidence seems
to favor the latter view, but the mat
ter Is still unsettled. II is generally
thought that frost has something to do
with IL, but It has not, except to hasten
1t Anything which affects the vitality
OF the leaf tends to hasten II, for which
reason an injured branch Of a maple
will often show red autumn color even
In summer.
The coiors are brightest where the
leaves receive the most brilliant sun
shine. Professor W. F. Ganong In St
Nicholas.

clevsIand's Estimate Of Roosevelt.

Cleveiand's Estimate OF Roosevelt.
When saw Mr.. Cleveland for the
first time after the accession Of Mr..
Roosevelt TO the Presidency, he spoke
with great freedom Of his association
with him. From this and other CONVEX
sations with Mr. Cleveland I extract the
following declaration;
Roosevelt is the most perfectly
equipped and the most effective polite
ian thus far seen in the Presidency.
jackson. Jefferson, and Van Buren, were
not, for a moment, comparable with
him in this respect. When l was Gov.
ernor he was still a very young man
and only member of the Assembly;
but it was clear to me, even thus early,
flat he was looking to a public career;
that he was studying political condi-
tons with a care that had never
known any man to show; and that
he was firmly convinced that he would
some day reach prominence. must,
however, confess that never supposed
that the Presidency would come within
the scope Of his aspirations so early
in life:

occasion when Mr.. Cleveland expressed

action. and said: I want to tell you
