FRAU KE4FsKY,s DEATH.
Musical World Mourns a Pre-Emineni
 Artiste and a Noble Woman.

MI uSlCSl uOElo IlouIhS h A
 Artiste and Noble Woman.
 The sudden death of Frau Lohse- Klafsky is a serious loss to the whole musical world. She was one of the most celebrated dramatic sopranos of her tirle and as an exponent of Wag- ner especially her name was known to all opera lovers, both in this country and in Europe. She was admired and respected everywhere for the sincerity of her efforts and her ideals were of the loftiest. As the leading member of the Damrosch company last winter she sang with eminent success in all the large cities of this country and her ap- pearance in this city as Elizabeth" in 'tTannhauser" is a glorious memory. She afterwards sang here in the Gounod festival, but her temperament was too dramatic to make her a successful con cert singer Her greatest roles were those of 'Leonora" in Beethoven's .'Fidelio," Donna Anna" in Mozart S "Don Giovanni" and 'Isolde' in Wag- ner's Tristan and Isolde"
 She was best known in Hamburg, where she had worked conscientiously for several years, taking all the lead ing dramtic roles in all the productions. Only few days ago the news of the overwhelming success of her first ap- pearance there as Elizabeth" was cabled to this country.
 A pleasant anecdote of the late Dr. Hans von Bulow was told by Klafsky' s husband, Herr Lohse. Klafsky sang Donna Anna" in a Mozart cyclus which Von Bulow conducted. Won Bulow was rather irascible, eccentric man, more given to sarcasm than flat dery, but after this performance he fell on his knees before Klafsky and hum- bly, kissing her gown, said in broken voice, T would compliment you, Mad anne, but this is the only speech I can command"
 Frau Klafsky was in New Haven on and off for several weeks last spring and was a familiar figure on our streets She became very much en- deared to those who had opportunity of knowing her intimately and to many her loss will come as a personal be- reavement.

Essay on the Recent Visit of
Scholars to the Free Press.
The following essay was written by
scholar of the fourth grade, West
Mankato, who recently visited the
FREE PRESS office:
VISITED THE FREE PRESS.
Invent with number of my school
mates down to the FREE PRESS office
1 saw the big printing press where
they print the newspaper. First the
men have to take the letters from the
case, which is very large box, and is
divided into many smaller boxes, and
each one of these boxes have in them
letter of the alphabet. They have
some type that is in long plates, so
that when it comes to the office each
noon, it is all ready to put into the
form and taken down stairs on an
elevator. 1t is not like the one we
have, but is a wide board and there
are ropes by which you can pull it up
or down. And when the forms are
let down they put them into the big
press. The press that L am telling
you about is like cylinder, and on
this the paper is printed, the first
side about half past one, and the other
about half past four in the afternoon.
The papers are folded by the same
big press. At one end there are some
pieces of iron called the folders which
fold the papers in the middle, then
across, then once again, so that they
are all ready for the carrier boys to
distribute. In the morning they
wash the type in lye water.
