of, stir and hurrying behind the
scenes. A faint smell began to per-
wade the atmosphere: smoke came
from the wings.
In an instant the same thought
struck everyone and the same word
left every lip: Fire.
A stampede seemed imminent. Then
the hero of the hour rose from his
seat in the orchestra.
Keep your Seats" he shouted.
His words and manner treasured
the terror-stricken people in the thea
tire. Shamefacedly, they sank back
one by one into their seats.
Slowly the man strobe to where
there was now an open avenue of
exit. Then without a moments hes

Once outside, he mopped his brow,
and murmured breathlessly: well,

railroad circularzing advertising mat
ter, calling attention to the rates, and
the carnival association placing ad-
yertising in a number of newspapers
in this district.
The matter of rates hsa been one Of
the details which has caused some
merchants to fail to enter into the
plans for the carnival, as they feared
that it might not be possible to secure
the rates at so late a date, and the
fact that these have been secured viii
give new impetus to the carnival pro-
gram.
Committees will be out. today In full
force soliciting those who have not
yet been called upon, and making col
lections from those who have sub
scribed but have not yet paid these
subscriptions, and 1t is believed that
the funds will be sufficient to carry
out the plans as contemplated, with
the proceeds of Tag Day and the ben
efits which are TO be given.
The ball scheduled for the evening
OF February goth will be one of the
most brilliant of the season, and the
fact that Country Fair will also be
held on that evening. the two enter
tainments being given at the same
time and place. alternating in interest,
should assure a good sum for the
cause.
