GLeE CLUB CONCERT.

A Spaendid Entertainment Given by the
n College Boys.
The plee and mandolin clubs of the
University are success in superlatlve
degree. The boys have not made such
hit as they made last Saturday night
in the Temple since the successful clubs
Of 'Q2 and %. Their work was uniformly
and continuously good and the immense
audience applauded their efforts TO the
echo Muslcally all did well, though the
slee club we're evidently the favorites of
the audience and were compelled to re-
spond to an encore for every number.
Austin. the second tenor soloist. was the
surprise of the evening and won much
deserved praise. The club was splen-
didlv balanced and the harmony was
perfect. The mandolins were IN their
usual fine form, but the addition OF Fin
ney as clarinet player was at once unique
and clever. Finney is an exceptionally
fine performer on the clarinet and the
club is appreciably strengthened by his
presence. The boys are sure to make a
hit wherever they appear in their state
tour, for in addition to their musical
ability they are fine looking gentle
manly lot of fellows who VIII represent
the university creditably anywhere.
While the musical effort of the club
was beyond reproach, there is room for
much improvement in the manner in
which the mandolins deport themselves
on the stage. 1t has been suggested
that the leader of the club should leave
it to the audience to discover the fact oi
his leadership from the printed program
and not depend so much on stage play
to effect that interesting purpose.
The clubs will start on their state tour
the last of this week and from the show
ing of Saturday night it is safe to predict
| it will be a triumph.

Charles Anderson, q Quarryman at VAL
mont, Shoots Himself While Hunting
A workman on his way to the Culbert-
son mill, on passing Weisenhorn's lake
this morning, was horri6ed to find the
body of Charles Anderson. Valmont
quarryman. lying in a boat near the
shore. The clothing was almost entirely
burned off of the unfortunate man and
life was extinct.
Anderson wenthunting yesterday after
noon. He went over toward the lakes,
but when he failed to return at supper
time and search Was instituted for linn,
be could not be found. The discovery
of the body this morning told the tale.
He had laid his gun in the boat and
started to row out in the middle of the
lake. In some way the gun was knocked
off the seat, striking the trigger. The
charge struck the man squarely in the
breast, probably killing him instantly.
HIS clothing then caught fire and whe n
found his remains presented a ghas ly
spectacle.
Some boys on the shore saw the man
when he started to row out and later
heard the shot, but supposed that he was
shooting at ducks and paid no attention
o the incident.
Coroner Trezise was summoned from
Boulder and went down this morning.
He made a thorough investigation OF tie
affair, and finding conclusive evidence
that the deceased had come to his death
through an accident, he deemed it un-
necessary to go to the expense of an In.
quest Mr.. Trezise took charge of the
belongings of the dead man, including
roll OF bills found sewed to his undershrt.
The latter were SO charred and burned
hat Mr.. Trezise deposited them with the
FIRST National bank, to be forwarded 10

issued.

worked in the quarries at the buttes. He
was AZ years old and unmarried. The
