THE CHARLOTTE NEWS MARCH 26, 1 908. 2 PROVIDENCE SCHOOL HAS ENTERTAINMENT Music and Literature Had Their De- votees, Who Greatly Delighted the Large Audience Present to Hear Them Miss Ellie Hudson's Fine Training. Providence did itself proud Tuesday night. The rain ceased long enough for the much-delayed recital of the school to come off. Did you all hear the choruses in Charlotte? We are going to break out in a new spot and become musical. Under Miss Ellie Hudson's patient and wise train ing the school sang with enthusiasm and excellent time, and we all enjoyed it. As the French say, the program ex ecuted itself, no commands, no confu sion, no hesitation. The selections played by our young pianists showed careful work and thor ough drill. But we were literary as well as musical. The fathers of our lit erature were brought before us in brief but comprehensive word pictures, while the more serious literary discussions were relieved by a very spirited debate on the question of Miss Katrina Van Tassel's rejection of Ichaboid Crane, and the sentimental hearts in the au dience were made to thrill by a "Yan kee Showman's Courtship." Miss Minnie Down's untiring work, persistent energy and wise government has made our school so popular that the roll has swelled this year to over 70 pupils, and we feel satisfied that there is no better country school in Mecklenburg, if in the state. The following was the program: Dixie Kmmett Chorus Allegro, Sonata in C Mozart Rondo. Sonata in C.,. Mozart E. and J. Alexander Annie Laurie Winthrop Mary Downs Old Folks at Home Foster Chorus Morning Prayer Streabbog Mame Matthews Blue Bell .. ..

Alexander The Red, White and Blue Shaw Chorus SACRAMENTO RE PORTS A FINE CASE A fine example of a recovery in a case of kidney disease that was sup posed to be incurable is reported from Sacramento, Mr. I. T. Gibson of 521 Ninth street, Sacramento, was in Oc tober last in a local hospital in the Capital City, swollen with dropsy that often attends the serious supposed in curable forms. As is usual in these cases the hospital treatment gave no results, when he was advised to try Ful ton's Renal Compound by a friend (Charles A. Newton, the yardmaster of the S. P. R. R- Co., at Sacramento, who had himself been cured by the treatment.) Dropsy began to subside and the renal inflammation gradually abated and Gibson is now back to his employment with the S. P. R. R. Co., after recovering from a disease that is rated as incurable the world over. In a letter he has just written, he states, "I believe it has saved my life. It is the greatest remedy for kidney disease on earth." v No matter whether called "kidney trouble," 'Nephritis," or "Bright's Dis ease," the real difficulty is INFLAM MATION OF TflE KIDNEYS. Ful ton's Renal Compound is the first emol lient for inflamed kidneys that the world has ever seen. Send for litera ture. JOHN J. FULTON CO. Oakland, Cal.

A Short Sketch of the Life of Enos A. Mills. "Enos A. Mills, the mountain guide, who talks interestingly concerning the value of trees, birds and nature, was born in Kansas and went' to Alaska when a boy. For twenty years he has rambled the mountains of the west as a prospector and nature lover. He has thoroughly explored the Rockies alone, unarmed and afoot during all seasons of the year. He has scaled all the highest peakes of the Rockies, some of them in mid winter, and many of them by moon light. He enjoys being out in the storm and has often climbed or trav eled the wilds by moonlight alone He has scaled Longs Peak 257 times and the day of his life was the time he guided little 8-year-old r Harriet Peters to the summit of this rugged peak. - . For three years b$ held the unique and adventurous position, "State Snow Observer of Colorado." He is a trifle under medium height and weight, eats but little and has ex traordinary physical endurance, not withstanding that during his early life he was an invalid. Schooling ho has had, but this chiefly from nature. He has written a little for the Youth's Companion and other eastern press, and is the author of the Estes Park, Colorado Guide Book. His home is lob cabin, 9,000 feet above sea level on the slope of Long's Peak. He does few things that con form to fashion or custom. His liking for nature, together with his intense love for birds and trees, along with appreciation of their use fulness to mankind, are worthy cau ses that sent him to the platform." Mr. Mills will speak in Charlotte on April the 2nd. - Garbage Cans Distributed and Law be Enforced.
