"Then," said Waldemar, "any attempt to persuade you against appearing at Harrisonia to-night would be time wasted." "Absolutely, my dear Waldemar. But don't think that I'm not appreciative of your thoughtfulness and that of Mr. Jones." "What is the program of the day, Governor?" asked Average Jones. "Rather a theatrical one.
