HISTORIC DISH TRAY.

Parts of tables and other furnishings
that were used by students OF Or,
Martin Luther College in this city rs
or more years ago, and which have
been carefully stored away in the attic
of the recitation building since being
discarded, have been utilized to good
advantage in the making of specially
constructed dish tray on wheels that
is to do service in the dining hall OF the
same institution. The vehicle" is
substantially made and the material,
which is hard maple throughout, will
endure for many years to come as it IS
in splendid condition. One of the
table tops was scorched in spots, this
slight damage being caused by burning
candles that were in vogue at the
college prior to the advent of the
modern illuminant-electric light.
These marks are evidence Of antiquity.
The good old college days will no doubt
be recalled to the minds of early
alumni of the institution by this little
news item.

week.
"Rigoletto," with which the season
opens Friday night, embraces every
thing which grand opera has to offer
magnificent arias, including the un-
equaled Cara Nome and La Donna
E. Mobile, striking musical gems for
mixed voices, splendid choral oppor-
tunities and romantic, moving dra-
matte libretto of unusual strength.
Verdis greatest work, it has held first
rank in popularity for seventy years
and has been favorable vehicle of the
greatest singers Of the century. Both
Titta Ruffo and Enrico Caruso made
their American debuts inthis opera.
Each of the operas is favorite with
an established vogue. It would be
difficult to determine which leads in
popularity. "Cavalleria Rusticana'' is
famous for it's peaceful and restful
