The Success of Our Great Piano
Club lies In the Value of the Piano

THAT our piano club is a success goes without
saying. It's an overwhelming success. Far
beyond our own most sanguine expectatons-as one
half of the 500 membership has been taken.
But, when all is said and done-when the whole
club plan and proposition has been sed down as to
what the clubs success can be attributed the one thing
that stands out boder than all the Others h the great
paIue of the piano for the money!

T haven't seen a real broncho for sev- eral years" said the ancient liveryman. after filling his pipe with alfalfa Some people call any small horse a bronch0, just as some call all men gen. tlemen- The broncho was a separate institution and should not be con- founded with ordinary horses.
 Tn the good old days the west was full of brOnchos. They were used as saddle animals and for driving, and man who owned a broncho always had plenty to occupy his mind It was like owning small earthquake or a dou- ble action avalanche. I never heard of a mans complaining of ennui when he was riding a broncho.
 T owned one for fifteen years at stretch He was a buckskin critter with a stripe down his back. 4 horse of that color, marked that way, is the toughest thing on earth. This pony ate enough for a menagerie, and was always lean; you could hang a weeks washing his hip bones. He had big white circles around his eyes and he was Illustrated with all sorts of brands. used to have to break that bronk ev- cry morning He forgot in the night all that he had learned the day before, and he was feeble minded to begin with. But when you got on him and got him started he would wear out any steam engine that ever was matched
 He was the bravest little beast that ever wore feSS ana you couid Elde nIIn up to a house afire, or swim a river, or climb tree. There was only one thing in the world that Buck was afraid of. and that was a goat, and he had no more use for a goat than a. woman has for a mouse. When he saw one of those critters you couldn't do anything with him. However, goats were a rare commodity in that part of the country in those days and there hadn't been one in the town for several years. But 8 stranger moved in and bought the opposition livery barn and he shipped in a goat that I knew nothing about.
 "A new railroad had just built into town, and day was set apart for a grand jubilee. and was appointed marshal of the day. I had to wear a big brass helmet that would have held at least a bushel, and a fierce red sash and a big nickel plated baton, and ride

A Prayer and . Story.

There is nothing stereoptyed about the invocation offered up by The Hous- ton Post:
 70, Lord. now that everything is coming our way. purge every demo- cratic soul of hot air and vainglory and insert large instalments of com mon sense in every democratic cram proness to make fools of ourselves ium; and, oh, remember Lord. our just when we have the world by the tail and a downhill pul1 and see that we don't get in bad this time"
 The only part of this prayer likely to be answered is that proneness to folly shall not be forgotten. But why ask that it be remembered? And sup pose that the party did not "get in bad" Suppose 1t to be converted from a minority into a majority in the house of representatives, what would happen? Of an Indiana dog the story is told that it contracted the habit of chasing the Twentieth Century Linn ited a few rods along the platform, which prompted a stranger to ask the station agent whether 1t expected to catch the train. Here's the answer: .I don't know, but don't wonder so much about that as what in thunder he thinks he would do with it if he ever did catch it"-Broolxlyn Eagle.

around in furious way. seeing that the street was kept clear when rne DIE parade occurred That parade was a hu1ndfnger and no mistake. Every man in town who was able to walk had dug up some sort of a circus suit and tin sword and was in line All the good looking horses in town had been char tered for the mayor and councflmen and for the distinguished guestss in- cluding several spellbinders-
 '"The mayor rode at the head of che procession on a big white horse, ands as he had never been on 2 horse be- cavorting along ahead on old Buck, waving my baton at the crowds that pressed into the street, and wishing the brass helmet was in the junk rods ahead. an1 then turned around to see that it stayed clear, and con- fess that was feeling pretty majes- tic and imposing.
 ing you about came out of the owners barn as though it had been shot out of a gun, and old Buck gave a yell and ran amuck. I had a poor grip on the trophe of that sort, and Twas tolted out of the saddle, and rode up street on the pony's hips. The way we sig zled that street was a caution to seis- mograpIls-
 furrpw through the middle of that pro- cession. He upset the mayor first, and then dumped the white horse on top of him, and after that he left a wfndrow of men and horses. was perfectly helpless, as was hanging to the sad- dle with one hand and to Bucks tail with the other, and the brass helmet had slid down over my face so that I couldn't see anything, but could hear walls of anguish and shrieks of strong men, till it fairly broke my heart.
 Finally let go and fell on a rea- sonably soft spot, and when. I got the helmet off my face saw a lot of men and telegraph poles, and a lot more trying to. crawl under sidewalks. The celebration was broken up before it was fairly started, and there was so much feeling against me that had to try a change of Chicago News.

IN CLEANING.

Philadeiphia is in the midst of a spring cleaning, devoting a week in- stead of a day to the work of making things ehip-shape. The director of public health there calls the attention sof the people to the fact that cellar walls should be whitewashed and the <7uderzround compartment put into the same order as every other part of the house. In addition to weeding the Card and garden, and removing there from the piles of broken glass and ssfseese-breeding dirt, attention should De given to adornment.
 With the expenditure of a little money for flower seeds and plants, and a little pleasant work in the soil, the backyard az well as the front can be made Into an attractive spot. There Is no reason why it should not be in the summer months, a cool retreat, where, away from the noise and dust of the street, the members of the family can spend many pleasant hours
 This campaign means cleaner and s1ealthier and more enjoyable city.
 We call Norwich a clean city and the slopes and grades are such that she spring rains wash away a good deal of the filth; but if premiums were offered for the collections of rubbish lying about to be delivered at Holly hook island 1t is quite likely 100, 900 old cans and as many old glass bottles, to say nothing of the other miscellaneous truck could be brought together. In these days of packages. canned and bottled goods, it is not an easy prob lem to keep the yards clear of rub bish- Other cities are not only equally as bad, but worse.

FOR THE RELEASE OF THE APA-
 CHES.

This government has held as pris- oners of war for the past 23 years, 4oz Apaches 16 years of which have epent at Fort Sill, and now there is a movement on foot, supported by the military authorities, to release them from custody. These hostages are .0eaceable and orderly. They have been Industrious and have flocks and herds enough to provide capital to insure them good start in life It is said that the army sentiment generally seo- onds the efforts of the Indian Rights association to do away with the anom- aty of prisoners of war in peace.
 It fs now proposed to release these Apaches from captivity. giving them allctrnents in severalty at Fort Sill or fin such other locality as the secretary of the interior may decide. bill to carry out this purpose has passed the senate and is now before the house. That these wild people are now thor sushly tanned and not only willing but anxious to live at peace with their white neighbors and the nearby Co., xnanches and Kiowas, is the belief of the military authorities who have so teng held them in custody
