Society tried Its best last week to make
Itself believe things were not as stupidly
dull as they are , and like all Its highly
commendable efforts this one deserved uuc-
teis.
teis.nut was It successful ?
That Is another question , quite an unkind
ino , for society needs encouragement thcso
beautiful days of May and should bo afforded
every assistance In Its attempts at deceiv
ing .Itself.
However , the week was not devoid of In
terest , the tea at Illshopthorpe , the cotillion
of the Cooking club nnd the Informal danc
ing party of Mrs. Mclkle , to say nothing of
other functions quite as noteworthy , making
a rather gay May week. There Is nothing
In dvldcnce that society Is going to try to
bo gay this week , although the season of
opera may enliven matters somewhat to the
extent of a few box parties. At best the
swell world shows signs of running down
at tlio heel , which condition will probably
prevail until September calls for now shoes
and ralnment befitting the fall.

Wednesday evening next the students of
Crelghton college will present the thrilling
tragedy entitled , "Elma , the Last of the
Saronldl , " In the college hall. Some time
ago the students of tills Institution ren
dered "Tho Merchant of Venice , " nnd the
able manner In which they brought out the
difficult parts of this play shows that they
have no llttlo knowledge of the dramatic art.
In their preparation for the coming event
the boys have been unusually active , and
will endeavor to keep up their reputation.
The play , moreover. Is ono well calculated
to display the power * of the actors. It re
lates the unflinching faith of n young Chris
tian hero whom neither the prospects of"
wealth and power nor. all the threats of
hatred and violence Could bond from his
devotion to the Savior , and ends with his
martyrdom for his God.

W. T. Carleton , whoso company will Inau
gurate a summer season of opera at Boyd's
Monday evening , May 21 , Is a delightful
story teller , ono of the very best on or off
the stage. Although somewhat reserved
with strangers to his friends he Is a prince
of good fellows. When hero recently with
his admirable opera company , which Is to
make Boyd's resound \vlth melody shortly ,
he told a Bco man of his first experience on
the stage. Hathcr than spoil a good story
the well known baritone is quoted literally :
"I wat ) engaged as 'singing , walking gentle
man' with Hurry Sullivan. It was then the
custom to have an operetta commcnco the
ovonlng'B entertainment , and was generally
regarded as a means of 'playing the audience
In' for the Important piece do resistance' ,
either a tragedy or a comedy. Tlio theater
was- the Holborn In London and I was cast
for the part of Tom Tug In Dlbdln's operetta ,
'The Waterman. ' The part has excellent
opportunities for the singer and I had been
warmly received until the niomont arrived
when Tom Is rejected by his sweetheart and
makes his exit with tho. pathetic song , 'Then
Farewell , My Trlm-lnillt-'Whorry , ' the last
llnotclng 'some frleudly ball shall lay mo
low. ' As I made my exjt , backing off the
stage and looking t niY.aweothoart with a
woeful expression of _ toep ! despair at my
rejection , I encountered a heavy , rustic
chair , placed In the Ulng , I rather fancy by
design , and the result VTUB that I turned a
back somersualt over.tho chair and when I
arose with a bruised lind'thumlllatcd feeling
I heard the audloriuo literally screaming
with laughter. I reghittto say that slnco I
loft the grand opera ropartolro and sang
In comic opera I have often renewed my as
sociation with the circus. "
