Sweet Springtime, " and "Who Knows What the Bells S.iy ?"' "Music Hath Charms," and well may it be said that the con cert Thursday night by Miss Annie Musgrove's music class, was one of the most delightful features o) commencement week. There were twenty numbers on the pro gram, the pupils of the tirst yeat appearing in Hart I, and the more advanced pupils in Hart II. The concert in every way re flected great credit upon the teach er who has so faithfully labored it instruct the children in the mos dehghiful (jf all arts. The music may also be called a "ITower Ees tival," as the pupils were loadei down with m.igniticet.t floral git" from admiring ftiends who lou what is brightest and besi in music Everyone of the children descrvi special llieili' 11 ami ,i gold llte'i for the part they eaji and evcti one look in making "music mgl.i" h success.

WOMAN'S overpowering obsession for revenge upon the snobbish, aristocratic family of her murdered husband prompts her to shelter and protect the girl who had made her a widow so that she might finally drag down the family name by bringing about the marriage of hei husband's brother with the girl who had taken a life with justification; thus, in THE HOLLOW OF HER HAND lie the destinies of an exclusive family and a beautiful girl.
