Morris, of Waupun, who enjoys fine
reputation as vocalist, will render sew
eral numbers. William Sproesser will

The Remenyi concert at Concordia
Opera house last Friday evening was
quite largely attended. 1t is perhaps
superf1uous to say that the world-re-
nowned violinist, Edouard Remenyi,
did not fail to give his customary per-
feet satisfaction by his wonderful work,
and the pianist, Sig. Riva de Berni, was
also up to high order of excellence.
But the audience was somewhat disap-
pointed over the indisposition and
consequent absence Of the soprano,
Adrienne Remenyi, whose appearance.
no doubt, would have relieved the
monotony of the programme to large
extent.
The Watertown Democracy scores
another triumph by the appointment
of Hon. C. H. jacob to the position of
consul to Reichenberg, Bohemia. with
a salary of So 200 per annum and some
fees. Mr.. Jacob has sixty days given
him to prepare for his departure and
he will probably not start upon his
journey before the end of that time.
Whatever else may be said Of this ap-
pointment, it must be set down as
creditable one, Mr.. jacob being quail
fed to discharge all the duties con-
nected with the positions with ability
and fidelity to the interests of the
United States. THE REPUBLICAN con-
graduates the new consul. Charles r.
Blumenfeld will occupy Mr.. Jacobs
Office and have charge ofthe business of
the latter during his absence abroad.
