The graduating exorcises of tho Red
Cloud High school were held at tho

rated with l ho class colors.
As Miss Wert phiyed h march tho

to tho right and left, and took their
places upon tho stago Tho class sang
In chorus, "School Festival Song"
and Rov. Davis delivered the invoca
tion of Divine blessing.
George Peterson, salutatorian, had
for his subject "Reflections on Agri
culture." His oration do.tlt with tho
progress of improvement in methods
of farming in this and other countries,
and was a very thorough exposition of
tho difference between tho methods
which now prevail and those of a half
century to a contury ago. While Mr
Peterson appeared to bo slightly em
barrassed at tho beginning of his
oration, as ho became warmed to his
subject ho showed real olcquonco
Tho next number on tho pro j nun
was "Song of tho Vikings," by a quar
tet composed of Messrs. L. P. and G. S
Albr ght, Misses Jossio Wrt and
Jossio Duckor, which received a
hearty encore

waneo River," .very prettily on tho
piano, and responded to a hearty
encoro with Godard's second vnlso
Tho subject of Miss Mary Damerell's
essay was "A Comparison of Enoch
Arden and Silas Mnrner." Sho very
touchingly told tho history of Enoch
Anion's sad lovo story and its still
sadder ending, showing his self sacri
fice and trust in God, comparing it
with Silas Marnor's very different
mauuor of accepting revereses and his
utter loss of faith in tho goodness and
moroy of tho Creator.
Miss Jessie Duckor, assistant, princi
pal of tho high school, sang "A Gipsy
Maiden I," and was heartily encored.
Ross Brooks' oration, "Americau
Contributions to Civilization," was
well prepared ami delivered in a man
ner which gives promise of his somo
day becoming an orator of ability.
Mr. Brooks cited many of tho improve
ments in steam locomotion, electrical
engineering, the telegraph, grapha
phono farm machinery, etc., as
examples of what tho United States
had contributed to tho advancement
of civilization. Ho concluded with a
prediction that tho women of America
would some day bo given tho right to
hold ofllco, and expressed tho belb-f
that Miss Mamie Ellis would bo tho
first woman president, with Miss
Duckor as vice president, and various
members of tho class of '0." wero
assigned to positions in tho cabinet,
Mr. Brooks' oration was followed by
a solo by L. "P. Albright.
Tho crowning number of tho gradu
ating program wus tho valedictory
oration of Miss Blancho Pope, "Edu
cational Standards of tho United
States and Germauy." Miss Pope
gave a very clear analysis of tho edu
cational standards of the two coun
tries, bhowing that sho had carefully
studied her subject, and tho composi
tion itself showed considerable lltorury
merit Hor oration closed with a few
well chosen words of thanks to tho
teachers, ami tho class farowoll.
In presenting the diplomas to tho
graduating class, Mrs. Caso paid thorn
a high tribute for the good showing
mado in thoir studios and predicted

The Barker Case.
Predictions are made that tin re will
be some further developments in the
Frank Barker case. Attorney Hanior
of Kearney spout some time in the
death coll this morn iik, audit is be
lieved that ho will make auother elfort
to induce Warden Beomor to report to
tho judge of tho district court that ho
l elioves tho niau is insane Tho olli
cals who have been connected with tho
caso say that this is tho only stop left
of tho man's sriends. The anxiety of
tho warden to put olf tho hanging is
regarded as a factor. He has annou
nced several times that he believed
Barker was insane, but lately, because
f official admonition, has eased to
take such au active part in tho dis.
cussion. Lincoln News
