Glvmdn and Vicinity.

Those who missed the entertainment
given on Thursday evening, Dec. 10, by
the Maude Stevens Concert company,
missed rare musical treat Evidently
there where many who missed it-for
the gross receipts of the evening were
only $3.50. 1t was a shame and Bun
ners hall should have been crowded to
its utmost capacity. The lack of inter-
est is very discouraging to the business
men of Clyman, who gave large guar
antee to secure the three entertain
ments in the course. The three young
ladies captivated the audience with each
rendition. The whistling by Charlotte
Chamberlain was a feature of the even
ing's entertainment. The whistling was
with piano accompaniment and demon
strated that she is an artist in the unique
field she has chosen. Edith WEIGH, a
violinist, was far above expectations, as
was also Maude Stevens in impersona-
tons and costume monologues. All in
all, the entertainment was one such as
has never before been given in Clyman
and it is indeed shame that the COM
pany was greeted by such small audi
ence.
The next and last entertainment Of
the course will be given on Friday even
ing, Jan. oath, when Mr.. Gideon Carl
will appear in character monologues.
He is genius in his line andiS endowed
with great versatility. He represents
ten character studies in complete cos
tune and makeup. Every citizen of

He will be ably assisted by Viola Carl.

How to Tell Ao. of Fishes.

The ages of fishes can be told by their otoliths. Otoliths are little bony concretions found in the auditory ap- paratus which assist in the auditory work. The otoliths grow every year, forming one ring in summer and one ring in winter. The ring formed in spring and summer is light. the ring formed in autumn and winter is dark. The rings are very distinct and the fish has a pair-a light one and dark one for every year it has lived.-Har- per's Weekly.
