THE FORTUNE HUNTER
Nathaniel Duncan was our hero's name,
In vain he had knocked at the portals of Fame;
Without any job, his money all gone,
He pondered from night till the breaking of dawn
On what he should do, and where heshould go ,
To acquire a supply of the much needed dough,
When on' his despair, like a radiant dream,
His bosom companion unfolded this scheme:
Go to some town, there's one near Des Moines,
And cop out a girl with a barrel of coin; "

PROOF HAS BEEN READ
ON KOSMET CLUB MUSIC
Will Have Music on Hand for Sale on
Evening of the Play, May 16
Professor Scott Happy.
Profossor Scott had an unusually
broad smile on his countenance Mon
day morning, owing to tho fact that
the nroof sheets on tho Kosmet show
music had arrived from a big eastern
publishing housetand only three
small errors could bo found In the en
tire Job. Tho publishers have prom
ised to have the music here on the
14th of .May this -year, or two days
bofore the show, which will be given
on the lGth. This ought to allow the
club to make a clean-up on tho muBic
sale tho night of the performance.
Last year, owing to the fact that the
firm publishing the' music went into
the handB of a receiver shortly before
the play, the music arrived about two
weeks late.
Thero will be twelve songs in this
year's show, practically double the
number of any -of the shows of pre
ceding "years, but tho songs fit the
situations so well and make such a
hit with the cast at rehearsals that
it waa decided that tho only thing to
do was to use all of them.
