In front ofthe library a university

"Wh-wbat?" stammered the college

One of the most grewsome "charms"
is that which was at one time exten

band of a dead criminal still banging
had to be rubbed three times over

Notes and Queries some few years
since wrote that many persons were
then living who in their younger days
bad undergone the ceremony, always,
tbey maintained, with complete suc
cess. "On execution days at North
ampton." he adds, "numbers of suffer
ers used to congregate around the
gallows In order to receive the 'dead
stroke,' as it was termed. At the last
execution which took place in that
town a very few only were operated
upon, not so much in consequence of
decrease of faith as from the higher
fee demanded by tbe hangman."

Comlnsr to La Grande This Winter
After Year's Absence.
The Oregon Glee and Mandolin
Clubs, which have appeared in La
! Grande several times, will In all
probability be here again this fall for
one of their popular entertainments.
j Thomas A. Burke, president and leader
! of the club the past year, spent last
Sunday In Baker City conferring with
I Manager Sweek of the Glee and Mando
j lin clubs, who spent a few days at
i that place looking after the prospects
1 for an eastern Oregon trip during the
' Christmas holidays. Last year the

land, with as many of the valley towns
as the faculty will see fit to grant.
Most of the old men on the glee
club will be back In line again, as far
as known at present. The sad drown
ing In Portland recently, of Samuel
Davidson, who has led the baritone
section for the past three years, leaves
a Vacancy in that row, and in all
probability two first tenors, a second,
and to basses will be selected at the
tryout held the first week of col
lege. From that time on until the
middle of December theclub practices
two hours each day, and with so
many old men In the line. It Is need
less to say the concert will be the best
ever given.
Mr. Burke, who is spending his va
cation at work on the Observer lioQn
type machine, has taken part in two
Oregon Glee club concerts in La
Grande In the past three years. He
shared the embarassment of the Ore
gon lads in 1897, when the 0. A. C
rooters at this place, dropped a Cor
vallls banner from the wings above
the stage, much to the delight of the
audience. The following year, how
ever, the Oregon songsters turned the
trick in a very fitting manner, and
evened up the good-natured rivalry
that existed Ibetweent the followers of
the ;two colleges. It Is hard to predict
what'wfil happen-at this year's con
cert much depending on how Oregon
and C6rvalll8 show up In football tat
coming season.
