Last week in describing the run
away of the ice team we tried to
give Will Clarkson a little puff for
being so good natured as to tell the
men whose wagons were broken
that he would settle the bill. We
related the incident as near right
as we were informed at that time
and meant no harm nor had any
thought of giving offense to any
one. On Saturday afternoon while
walking up the street we heard a
voice say "There's a dliar"
"There's the fellow that told ad-
lie. " We were surprised upon
looking around to find that .Will
Clarkson was the speaker and re
ferred to the-editor of this , paper.
He explained -later that the team
did not get away from him as WQ
stated' in our account of it. We1
might be impressed withClarkson's
ability to handle a team more , than
before but we are of the opinion
that we have met men who talk

The date for the concert of the
25th Infantry Orchestra has
been changed to Tuesday evening ,
March 10th , instead of the day af
ter , on account of the meeting
of the Farmer's Institute that
night. The program shows
that nearly all the pieces to
be played are of a very light and
pleasing character. The overture
is the one to the old favorite opera
of the Bohemian Girl which has
been liked so well for the last 30
years. Then there is a Valsc Mil-
itarie that has a dash to it like the
Espana Waltz that was' played at
| hej > reyipus concert t . his s oj.
by a Caprice , illustrative of the
Midway Plaisance , a jolly number
indeed. Then there is a selection
from the Ked Hussar , the comic
opera that Lillian Kussell starred
in so long. The piece for strings
only will be Love's Reverie , and
" "
possibly the intermezzo "from Cav-
alleria Rusticana. The program
will wind up with a medely of
songs Salute to Erin , containing
old favorites among which will be
The Last Rose of Summer for violin
lin solo. There will also be a Ser
enade ( by Moszkowski ) for violin
solo , both being played by Mr. Sa-
franek , the bandmaster. Some
popular music will also be played
in case of encores.
