Angy's eyee cleared. She struggled
to speak, aghast at the thought that
life itself might be done before ever
they could have one hour together
so much to say! She reached out her
hand to where his rested upon HIS
knee. Their fingers gripped, and each
felt sense of droary cheer to know
that the touch was speaking what the
tongue could not utter.
Time passed swiftly. The silent
hour sped on. The young blades OF

Got More than Expected
Austin, the ten year oily son of Mr..
and Mrs. NJ. II. Gum, sustained in
juries to his left side in a search for
nothing" Saturday afternoon. The
incident occurred thus: An impress
sion had been made upon the boys
mind by older poys of the value and
worth Of "sky hooks, pigeon milk,
left-handed monkey wrenches and
other unknown quantities." and a de-
sire came upon him for some of the
same.
Havi"" been reliably informed that
all stores in town kept them in stock,
the boy started on n wild goose
chase. Trips to p. d. Drug Store,
Ringer & Hopson's store and Gidley
Bros store were unsuccessful, bu
the Commercial Hotel the boy was
supplied with n can of disinfectant
and advised to have the pigeon milk"
bottled up. In crossing the street
the can was accidentally dropped and
the contents spilled on the ground. so
another wild goose chase was start
ed,
The supply at the West End Drug
Store having played out, the bov was
headed for 7. +. Phillips store. But
at this stage of the here-to-f fore fun
and automobile appears on the scene
operated by Ralph Blemel. The car
was running only at about five miles
an hour and the driver honkcd the
horn several times ut the crossing
so he is blameless. As the car pass
ed between the last mentioned stores
the boy came mixing out of the drug
store, and before he could be stopped
had collidcd with the mud guard over
one back wheel of the car and was
lying fiat on his back. The car was
stopped instantly and the boy picked
up, but an examination found only q
few bruises on the child. yet had the
car been running fast or been q few
seconds later the injuries might have
been serious.
The parties encouraging the boy in
the fun Immediately disappeared and
the fun ended with the accident.

PHILHARMONIC HAS
FERRARI-F0NTANA
Italian Tenor Is SOlOiSt at Fifth
Evening Concert at
Carnegie Hall.
PROGRAMME Is BRILLIANT

-'hc Philharmonic Society gave its NTH
regular evening concert at Carnegie Hall
last night The conditions attending the
occasion we're those to assure generally a
feast Of musical delights and the audi
ence assembled was one Of large size.
The programme offered as soloist the
Italian tenor Eduardo Ferrari- fontana,
who made such success at his debut
here last season when he appeared at
tbe METROPOLITAN opera House as ritO
In ItaIo Mon;cmez2fs opera, "b'Amore
ui ire Re" rs orchestral numbers,
Russian. German aud hungarian music
W.. presented. The first two selections
were less familiar on the society's pro-
rrammc and all were brilliant In charaC-
Ter. They comprised the symphonic suite
"Schcherazade" of Rimsky- korsakon,
Richard strauss symphonic poem. Till
Tulenspiegel and His Merry Franks" and
Lists first Hungarian rhapsody.
Mr. Ferrari-Fontana was heard in Bee
,hoyen's song adelaide" and an oper-
ATTIC aria the "Oh! tn che in seno agli
ANGEL" from Nerdis La Forza del Des-
tlno" The beauty OF his voice made a
strong appeal and on the whole he used II
with the excellent taste remembered In his
former singing here. Its robust quality,
combined with remarkably strong dra-
matte power, would seem to fit him first
Of all for the performance of music optr-
ATTIC IN caste. His delivery of Adelaide
last night in measure confirmed this con-
e!us.on though a sense Of loss 1t contained
was LARGELY due to his use OF Italian text
and style In phrasing that was some
what uneven But Oh the whole he sang
the song with taste and feeling
The performance of the orchestra was
OF much interest. The compositions 1t
rendered were we'll adapted for affording a
di,plav Of power in fine toual balance,
brillance Of finish and the building of drd-
matte climaNes. These are all qualities in
which the organization has excellent re-
sources and its work last night again drew
richly upon them and thereby added to a
fine record of past achievement Maxi
milan Pilzer the concert master. deserves
a special word OF praise for his playing OF
III. solos in the Rimslky korsakon suite.
