handkerchiefs, ribbons, fans and gloves

driving the young ladies wild, while the

Prof. McEwen's entertainment last
ight was as laughable as usual and
well attended. He bad an excellent
class and did good work. The most
amusing th'ng of the evening was the
milking scene, where every member of
the class milked imaginary cows fur
dear life and sold the milk like profea
sional venders to the audience.
The class was then provided with fish
ing poles, and Uie way they pulled the
speckled beauties frotnin front of the
footlights was indeed amusingj Some
of them fell into the supposed river
while engaged in this diversion, and the
way they struggled tokeep from drown
ing would make a wooden Indian split
his sides. A number of other amusing
and new features were introduced, but
our space will not permit us to mention
them all. -
Outside of the developing of (the class

will be rendered, no doubt to a crowded
