OrrUMwA QUARrErrE CONCERT
At the Opera House Monday Evening
4 August II.
| The Ottumwa Quartette will give q
concert at the opera house Monday
evening. This organization has been
making tour of the Hills, having an
engagement with the Chautauqua and
later giving concerts in the towns sur
rounding Deadwood from which places
they have received the most flattering
press notices. By many they are con-
sidered superior to the we'll know
Schubert Quartette which was recently
in the Hills. They are at least as
good. Will F. Muse, the basso of the
organization, is the editor of the OF
tumwa Courier, and one of the best
known newspaper men in Iowa. He
has an organ voice, sympathetic and
resonant in tone color which he uses
with sweep and yet with delightful
expression. He is also the .funny
man" of the organization and has
had, ever since his Amphictyon days
at Cornell College, reputation as a
genius in art of producing smiles upon
the faces of all who are fortunate to be
with him even for few minutes. The
other members of the Quartette are:
Eugene W. Peterson, the baratone, who
has voice of rare purity;' James
Swirles who has sweet, clear tenor
which pleases everyone, and Edward
Weeks, whose voice is exceptionally
high and in keeping with the other
voices of the quartet.
The Ottumwas must come back.
They took the people by storm with
their beautiful voices, perfect har-
mony and exquisite eNpression.

Frightful Heat. v
The ravnaas of the heat Throughout
the east and south is shocking. In the
larger cities the victims of the heat
run up into the hundreds. The hot
weather covered the entire country
east of the Mississippi. At Chicago at
midnight, Monday, the thermometer
registered at 81. while few nights
ago at Memphis at midnight it stood at
81. Think of bearing such terrible
heat as that ut midnight! The weather
here in the Hills has been really de-
lightful, the nights being so cool that
one requires heavy blankets. We truly
have the ideal climate.
Republican Central Committee Meeting.
The republican county central com
mittee met at the STAR Office last Sat
urday. All but four of the outside
precincts were represented. The res
ignation of Chairman Cleveland was
received and accepted, together with
the resignation of j. G. Mckee. Cham
bers Kellar was elected chairman, and
Geo. Dennis chosen committeeman for
Union township. The time for holding
the county convention was fixed for
Saturday, Sept. 9TH at IL o'clock, the
call for which will be seen elsewhere.
The primaries are recommended for
Saturday, Aug. %. The republican
organization of the county feels that it
has a contest before it; in fact it always
has, but the central committeeman
from all parts of the county give bright
reports for the outcome, and say that
the people begin to realize that the
democratic party is trying to fool them
by claiming that they have been born
again and that, therefore, they are diff
ferent people now. But just the same,
Bryan is expecting The same support
to elect him that elected Grover Cleve-
land. This is the way the people from
the country argue the question, and
they are right. The republicans Of
Fall River county are in for fighting
democracy upon its horrible record,
and they will win on it. The people of
this county will not endorse democracy.
