Ed. Johnson. the democratic candi-
date for governor, seeks TO gain the
favor OF the travelling and railroad
men by adding a plank to his plat
form for their particular benefit. He
would amend the law TO enable them
to vote, II their work took them away
from home on election day, in what
ever town they happened TO be by
producing a certificate from the cleo
ton officers Of their home town. Such
a law would be a decided advantage
to the two classes Of men, but it would
probably conflict with the national
election laws. However, it will un-
doubtedly make votes for Johnson and
that's of first Importance to him just
now.

HOSPITAL OUTLOOK sRIGHTENS

There has been several interesting
developments in the hospital situa-
ton in the past week A message re-
ceived Saturday morning announced
the approval OF a d~eaconess hospital
in Brookings by the Methodist Dea-
coness Association in executive SEES
sion in Chicago.
Subscriptions came in from individ-
ua.s, firms and societies till the total
amount, at the time Miss Wilson clos
ed her work in Brookings Monday
evening. was s7,S09 90.
Later the same evening. the city
council voted to appropriate one thous-
and dollars to the purchasing fund and
the amount leaped TO $500. 90.
This leaves but s1,l91.0O yet to be

ton. Dr. Green and Miss Wilson left
Tuesday to assist in getting the ques-
ton properly before that body. The
result OF the conference vote will be
known in a few days. With the pur-

CONCERT BY BEETHOVEN TRIO

The Y. M. c. A. began last Friday
evening what is expected from all in
dications to be a decidedly successful
curse of entertainments. On this &C.
casion the Beethoven Trio rendered a
program noteworthy in its points of
artistic excellence.
The Beethoven Trio consists OF Miss
Jeanette Loudon, pianist, Mr.. Carl
~Brueckner, cellist. and Mr.. Otto B.
Roehrborn, violinist, and their work
upon this occasion will long be re-
membered by everyone present. Each
member Of the trio proved himself an
artist in the most strict sense of the
term. Each has learned the difficult
lesson Of sacrificing his own individ-
uality to the work OF the master COM
poser and beauty OF the ensemble.
Chamber music Is a branch of the
art too little heard In this country al
though 1t exerts an attraction greater
than any other form Of music.
The too often imposing and some.
times dreaded classics were made
pleasing to the least sophisticated in
tAs simple and delightful exposition Of

Five O'clock T~ea-Tuesday Of last
week, Mrs. B. A. Dunbar entertained
a number of her friends at a Tea.
The tables were decorated with chrys,
a%nthemums, and dainty place-cards
designated places. The delicious re-
past was served in three courses.
kensington-Friday afternoon Mrs.
o. A. Brictson was the charming hos.
tess to about twenty ladies. Fancy
work, visiting and a general good
time passed the time rapidly. At $50
the ladies were invited to find their
places at tables decorated daintily
with smilax and yellow ch~rysanthe-
NUNS. A fine three-course dinner
was served by Misses Charmion and
Thelma Rrictson and Frances Car
Isle.
Five O'clock Tea-Wednesday of

of her friends at a Tea. The tables
were beautiful with their bouquets Of
yellow chrysanthemums and smilax.
The fine luncheon was served in three
courses by the daughters Of the hos

Eighth Grade Picnic-Tuesday about
4:30 p. m the two Eighth Grades Of
the public schools and their teachers,
laden with bundles and bags of differ
ent sizes and shapes marched to the
college grove. Bon-fres were lighted.
wieners roasted and then the bounti-
full lunch was eaten and hugely en-
joyed. Various games were then in
dulged in, and a hilarious time was
the result.

young ladies-Misses Lila Linn, Joy
Morton. Hazel Skin, Frances Carlisle,
Edith Irish, Dorothy Squirting. and
Esther Summers met at the home Of
Miss Linn and organized the P. H. c.

to be every alternate Friday evening.

play their perfect ensemble. The An.
dante in its almost PASTORAL peace
fulness and simplicity, and its blend
ing themes. and the sparkling Allegro
with its beautiful runs showed the
composer in one of his happier moods
and were a JOY throughout.
If The Rubinstein Andante was less
thankful, it was through no fault of
the performers since this composer is
notorious for lack of beauty in his
melody. The Scherzo, in its capric-
ious merry-making rhythm and beauti
full chord effects, proved decidedly pop
ular as was signiied by the demand of
the audience for an encore. The en-
core, a slow movement-presumabiy
a Romance-was one Of the choice
bits of the evening with its pleading
violin and cello solos which at last
were merged in a beautiful duet.
The Smetana Presto, while perhaps
presenting the greatest technical task
Of the program, was in real musical
worth hardly up TO the standard OF
the program preceding, it depending
upon rhythm and orchestral effect for
its beauty.
Mr.. B%rueckner by request played an
additional number. He selected a
Spanish Dance of Pepper, which prov
ed him master of his instrument in
technic and Interpretation. AS an
encore he rendered a Lullaby, a com
position of his brother.
Nine. Bengell, contralto, appeared
to best advantage in her group OF
songs, Hawley's In a Gar

best rendered. The Brahams Might

encore 10 her second group she sang
a pleasing Irish air by Lohr.

Miss Loudon's work at the piano

company is largely due to her music.
