SUSAN STRONG.
An American Singer Who Has
Earned Fine Reputation in
Europe.

! Europe.
Susan Strong is the woman, barely
| twenty-three years old, who has set
| the music critics of conservative old
j London by the ears. She recently
| made her operate debut in that city
as Sieglinde in die Walkure." AS
that is one of the most difficult roles
in Wagner's great trilogy it was con-
| sidered that Miss Strong would be
! exceedingly fortunate to pass
| through the ordeal without meeting
with positive disaster. That is Where
she surprised the critics. She not
only got through without trouble, but
achieved a genuine triumph. The
scene when she was called before the
curtain at the close of the. opera is
said to have reminded the old-timers
of the early triumphs of Adelina Pat
ii. Cheer after cheer greeted her,
and the papers the next morning con-
tanned glowing eulogies of ''the new
star from the West" Miss Strongs
triumph in the role of Sieglinde was
not a fortunate fluke, as was amply
demonstrated when little later she
sang Elsa in "Lohengrin" and easily
added to her reputation. She is the
fad in the musical circles Of London,
which is equivalent to saying that
she is henceforth to rank among the
greatest singers.
Frau Cosima Wagner. the widow
of the greatest composer the world
has ever known and herself one of
the best of vocal critics, had, prior to
Miss Strong's success. heard of her
ability. She at once summoned the
new aspirant to sing before her at
her home in Baireuth. When Miss
Strong stood in the famous music
room Of the great composer and real
lied that she was to sing to the

THE FURNITURE FACTORY.
1t Has Been Sold For $4,000 and Will
be Started Again,

The Furniture Factory was sold
yesterday to the syndicate of citiz-
ems of this city who had organized
themselves into company to pur-
chase it. They will meet today or
soon and elect officers, appoint a
manager, capitalize it and start
the wheels to going.
We learn that some of our largest
monied men are interested in the
purchase and will see that plenty
of ready capital is behind it to make
it go until the business can take
care of itself, We shall be on the
alert and give out all news in re-
gard to the organization and any
other item of news connected with
it, We learn that an effort will be
made to get our local furniture
dealers to take stock in the enter
prise, and handle the furniture in
their trade here, which will be
money in their pocket as they will
not only receive profit on the pur-
chase of the same, they being inter
ested in the sale, as stockholders
but also in retailing it again to the
trade. We do hope that every man
approached on the subject of tax
ing stock in the reorganization, will
not hesitate to subscribe liberally.

A BLOODY TRAGEDY !
Ed Baker Killed by Melvin
Anderson, in Self
Defense.
AN AGED AND WIDOWED MOTHER
LOSES HER SON BECAUSE
OF THE WHISKY
DEVIL.

Last night about II o'clock a
bloody tragedy was enacted, in the
Home Saloon, on Broad street,
West side, in which two men drew
their pistols, in deadly conflict, and
one of them fell dead from the eff
fects of his wounds. The parties
to the shooting were Deputy Mar
shal Melvin Anderson and Ed Baker,
the latter a young man about 20
years OF age, who had been clerking
at Whiteners hardware store.
1t seems that Baker fell out with
Anderson because latter made him
an unwilling witness against Frank
Wallace, "a West. side grocer) who
was charged with Sabbath break
ing, he having sold James Hughes
two packages of cigarettes Sunday
afternoon last The case against
Wallace was called up Monday, and
Baker was called upon to testify
against the defendant, but the
whole matter was finally dropped
without any fine having been inn
posed.
1t is reliably said that young Ba-
ker. secured bottle of whisky late
yesterday afternoon, or last night,
and, after getting under the inhu-
ence of the vile stuff, went from the
Delmonico Restaurant up to the
Home Saloon building, where An
derson was talking with friends.
Eye witnesses say that on entering
the house he cursed and abused An
derson and also struck him in the
face, when both men drew their
pistols and began firing at each 9TH
er. A difference of opinion is ex-
pressed as to who fired first, though
two say Baker shot first and missed
Anderson. Andersons first shot
was a fatal one for Baker, and the
two second shots also pierced his
body and death was almost instan-
taneous. Baker did not speak after
he was shot, and died with his pistol
grlpped in his hand
Immediately after the killing
Anderson hunted up Marshall Stan
ley Edwards and gave himself up.
His examining trial will take place
at once and there is no doubt but
that he will be acquitted, as he evil
IDENTITY acted in self.defence,
TO say that was a most unfortu-
nate affair, Is but stating Il truth
thai all know. But the whisky
curse is the direct cause of the
young mans death, from what we
can learn, II was from the effects
Of whisky that he rushed into the
jaws of death, and quickly passed
over the dark river Thus an aged
and widowed mothers gray hairs
are brought down in sorrow to the
grave, and loving sister and dear
brother mourn the untlmely end of
a brother
What a commentary upon the
ruin ever brought about by the
demon, alchohol
win Texdrkana permit the longer
unlawful sale Of whisky after hay
ing voted to stop the same, Let us
see how much longer our law-loving
people will stand 1t,
