TUESDAY EVENINGS CONCERT
The first annual concert of Friends uni
versity was given Tuesday evening &C
| cording to the program previously pub
lished in the Eagle, except that on ac-
count of a severe cold Miss Wood was
unable to appear, Mrs. Ford kindly fur
nishing a second selection in her place.
The largest audience that has assembled
in the university since the old days when
Garfield university was in the zenith of
its glory gathered in the auditorium to
listen to this entertainment. Every avail
able seat was occupied, Wichita thus
,vncing her interest in this rapidly grow
lg institution. In spite of the oppres-
$ We heat of the evening the entire pro-
gram was listened to with the most untir-
ing attention, frequent bursvs OF applause
attesting to the pleasure and appreciation
of the audience.
The piano duet, THE Knights" by Volk-
man, was brilliantly rendered by Miss Oh
i've Hill and Fay Chambers.
Miss CaIhoun's piano solo, Rustic
Dance" by William Mason, lacked moth
ing in Interpretation or finished rendition.
Miss Thompson fully sustained her repu-
tation by her artistic Interpretation Of
LISTS "Rigoletto" and Footsteps in the
Snow" by Sherwood. Mrs. Bird Shultz-
Ford sang "Ye Merry Birds by Denza,
also an exquisite waltz song the latter
to supply the number expected OF Miss
Wood. Mrs. Ford, at all times a favorites
with the university people, was received
with hearty applause. The chorus drilled
by he acquitted themselves creditably,
demonstrating her ability as a chorus d.
rector as wen as a soloist. That soul
stirring recitation, The Gladiator was
read by Mr.. Garfield Black as only those
gifted with his marvellous power of por-
traying emotions and sentiments by voice
and gesture can read.
All in all, the concert was a perfect sue
cess. a happy inauguration OF the annual
concerts of the university and proving the
ability Of the music department.

GOVERNMENT BY CUBANS
AFTER THE CUBAN CENSUS IT WILL Be
TRIED THERE.
Gen. Lee Thinks if it Proves a Success the
United States viii Withdraw From
the island.

New York, Nov. S.-"Thc future of
Cuba" is paper by Major General
Fitzhugh Lee which will appear i'll the
Independent tomorrow, as follows:
''Yes ] can say that during the last
six months crime has decreased and
peace and prosperity are spreading or
reyiying in Il great measure. This, how
ever, seems attributable to the presence
Of the United States troops, whom the
chief property holders and conservative
business men insist must stay. The Gu
bans themselves seem to be very much
divided in opinion as TO what ought to
be done Some want an independent
republic Immediately. Others insist that
Cuba should be annexed TO the United
States and great numbers of others seem
to have no positive opinions concerning
the path their country should pursue.
There as, Of course, on the part of Il
majority lack of understanding of the
difficulties of self government.
"At present the census is being taken
in Cuba and for the first time we shall
have an accurate and reliable enumera-
ton. When that had been finished the
eAptd llic1lI Ol Tree government Dy Gu-
bans for Cubans viii, | believe, be
tried. Precisely in what locality or in
what form | do not know That is a
matter for our Government to decide.
and have obtained no information of
its intentions in the matter.
IF it is found that Cubans can or
ganize and maintain la government in
their island that will protect life and
property, undoubtedly we shall with
draw and allow them to go their way
along the path of independence accom-
panied by nothing more embarrassing
than our very best wishes.
But at present all is tentative, all
attempts at government are merely eX-
perimental, and, not being a prophet,
am unable to say what the future holds
for the Pearl of the Antilles. | sincere
ly hope that it is happiness and pros
perity In their greatest abundance and
in highest form"
