Tonight at one by clock;
And now | sit here thinking, Bill,
And wish I were sinking, Bill,
For my heart is bent on frivol
And my mind is on the cup.
When the heart is on the frivol
And the mind is on the cup
That glorihes insiduously
Then turns and does you up
Oh, the price you've got to pay, Bill,
For these blithesome nights SO gay,
Bill,
When the heart is on the frivol,
And the mind is on the cup.
When the heart is on the frivol,.
And the mind is on the cup,
You ask lot of rummies
To come out with you and sup,
Don't you eat the darndest mess,
Then next morning, what distress,
Bill,
When the heart is on the frivol,
And the mind is on the cup.
When the heart is on the frivol,
And the mind is on the cup,
Just exactly like ballooning,
It's hot air that takes you up.
You always go too far, Bill,
Never know just where you are, Bill,
When the heart is on the frivol
And the mind iC on the CuO

In these moments of ones lite, Bill,
Get cop to lock you up!
1t will save you from the frivol,

And you'll feel so damned much bet

If your appetite's in fetter,
When the heart is bent on frivol

Rosie Mutt did extremely well, and
evinced much talent. She was easy,
graceful and natural, evoking much
applause by her clever work.
The artistic career of Mr. Augustus
P. Hoffman, who is preparing for the
lyric stage, was enhanced by his sing
ing the prologue from Pagliacci,"
by Leoncavallo, and two other num-
bers, one from List and another
from Carl Bohm. In the first song
Mr.. Hoffman showed that he has a
baritone of exceptionally good range
and quality, and his style proves that
he has studied to handle his voice to
the best advantage. He should prove
a singer of impressive character when
he enters his professional career. He
was literally applauded and respond

Hoffman has promising future. He
was accompanied by Mr.. A. Dull
