TREAT IN THE MUSIC LINE
THAT'S WHAT THE LIBR AIRY.
SCHUBERT CLUB CONCERT TO-
NIGHT PROMISES
Supporting George HamIin, the
Tenor, VIII Be Some of ST. Paul's
Leading yOices-The Schubert
Club Chorus Takes Part.

That the public of st. Paul is appre-
ciative of music is evidenced by the
liberal response there has been in the
sale of seats for the concert this even
ing at the Peoples church. The pro-
sramme for the concert is replete with
good things, and the fact that so much
of it will be given by ST. Paul artists.
a st. Paul chorus and ST. Paul or
chestra is matter upon which the
people of the city should pride them
selves. The programme is an ambi-
tlous one, containing many difficult
numbers, but from the reports that
come from the Schubert orchestra and
chorus rehearsaIs the public is assur-
ed that they will not be disappointed,
that both the orchestra and chorus
will do creditable work While inter-
est naturally centers around the solo,
1st or the occasion, George Hanllin the
eminent American tenor, it does not
end there. Three St Paul artists who
have been chosen to support .Hamlin
are great favorites in their own city,
and their appearance on the stage will
be eagerly looked for
Miss Gordon is an artist too seldom
heard, and though she gives much
time and labor to these matters, she
does not give it professionally, but to
further the highest interests of the
city. Music given such a spirit is
all the more musical and gives even
greater pleasure.
Mr.. Colville gives his services. and
special interest attaches to his per-
formance in the fact that he has but
recently returned from his studies
abroad, and has not since that time
appeared i'll any large concert.
Miss Pottgiesser is a young singer
with great voice which promises still
greater things. That she will be equal
to the difficulties which will present
themselves in this evenings pro-
gramme no one can doubt.
Mr.. Hamlin will have efficient SUD-
port not only in his accompanying So
loists, but in the Schubert club chorus
and orchestra as well. The chorus
with it's more than 200 voices, has been
working faithfully for months under
Mr.. Ober-H -Hoffer's instruction, and
though one of the most difficult things
in the world is the production of good
work by large mixed chorus if the
reports which have leaked out from
some of the rehearsals say Alright. the
Peoples church will tonight be filled
with a great volume or harmonious
sound. That the city could produce
fifty amateur players willing to form
themselves iEto an orchestra. working
without compensa ton. is a happy fact,
AL this evenings performance the pub
llc VIII have an opportunity to decide
as to the merits of the Schubert orches-
era. The orchestra will play two num-
DerS-an overture and a suite Of
dances-besides accompanying the
singers.

After half dozen continuances. the GRIM
fnal libel charge against o. 8. Deringer.
publisher of the Saturday Evening News,

sented by ]. J. McCafferty, Herchmer john
son and 3. E. Mcdonald. Assistant County
Attorney Zollman Is prosecuting the case
When the case was called an affidavit was
presented by the defendant asking for
further continuance. The document related
that two witnesses for the defense who had
witnesses, 1t was set forth. were Mr. and
Mrs. r. F. Roberts, whom Deringer claims
gave the information upon which The charges
against Cline were made Judge Orr over
ruled the motion for continuance and the
task of selecting jury was begun. When
the panel Of twentyfour citizens had been

ing nine jurors had been accepted: Louis
Nash, Theodore Kay, T. Edward Nattrass,
Daniel Ingram George w. Lair, Gustav
Kemper, M. ]. ONeil, A. G. Palmer and P
J. Metzdorf.
The libel suit grows out of the last spring
campaign. Cline is active in Eighth ward

Eighth ward. The two became involved In
a squabbIe during the heat of the CAM
paign, when Derfnger is said to- have taken
the Roberts end and to have published the
alleged libel against Cline
Deringer claims that the libel charge Is not
the only issue at stake in the trial. He
claims the institution Of the charge against
him is a political move. and threatens to

"If Gen. Miles made statements as
set forth. then he lied again, and if he
made the statements that ''pretense is
the precise term to be used Gas he said
then referring to the 'experiment), then
he lied with as black heart as the
man who blew up the Maine possessed,
and he deserves to be characterized
and known to America and Europe,

ing the colossal, prodigious liar of the
nineteenth century. | submit to this

by him"
Gen. Eagan, referring to newspaper
attacks, asserted that the secretary of
war had nothing. whatsoever, to do
with the furnishing of refrigerated
meats or timed meats, nor had he at
tempted to control the contracts,
awards or purchases, and in this con-
nection In heated language he attack

AS soon as the nature of Gen. Ea-
ganS statements became known atten-
ton was directed to army headuuar-
ters TO see what move would be made
By Gen. Miles. The latter beyond say
ing, through Col Micheler, his secre-
tary. that he had simply stood for the
soldiers, declined to say anything, ex-
cept that before taking action it would
be only proper to consider the mat
ter as to the right channels and to re-
view the testimony of Gen Eagan. He
would not talk about a court martial.
Altogether the intimation construed
was that Gen. Miles would act with de-
liberation, if he decided to take any
action at all; and there was a faint
suggestion that he might decide to ig-

MAY ELECT JUDGE SEARLE
HE IS MENTIONED AS THE NEXT
COMMANDER OF THE C. A. r..
IN THIS STATE
st. Cloud Man Is Capt. McCnrdy's
Choice--Omcers VIII BE Elected
at the Next Encampment, to he
Held in This City In February.

The next state encampment of the
Grand Army of the Republic will be
held in st. Paul. Though the date has
not yet been fixed, it will probably be
about the middle of February.
The business matter Of the most in
terest and probably of the most impor-
tance to come before the encampment
will be the election of officers; and the
members of the G. A. II. have already
commenced the discussion of the queS-
ton as to who will probably be elect
ed to the position Of commander.
In speaking in regard to G.. A. r.
matters yesterday, Capt. J. ]. McCardy,
ex-commander, said that in his opin-
ion the next commander will be Judge
D. B. Searle, of st. Cloud. Besides
knowing thing or two about city af-
fairs, and especially the comptroller'5
department, Capt. McCardy is one Of
the best informed men in the country
in relation to Grand Army matters, and
the chances are that his prediction of
the selection of Judge Searle for de-
partment commander at the next en-
campment, will be verified. Judge
Searle Is now judge of the district
court Of his district, and is eminently
we'll qualified for the place, as well as
deserving
For the other positions to be filed at
the encampment, no names have been
canvassed, and probably little will be-
said about candidates until the boys"
get together.
1t is matter Of some surprise that
the members Of the organization in this
state, having as one of their number a
man SO we'll fitted for national com
nander as Capt. McCardy, have not
presented his name to the national
ercampment for that position and no
doubt he would be glad to receive such
an honor after he is succeeded in his
present position by some good Demo-
crat at the next city election.
Asked If soldiers of the war with
Spain are eligible to membership in

answered both questions in the mega

ABOUT THE ELEVEN RESORTS
GOssiped Around the Court House
That Some Determined Action
May BE Expected to Follow the
Effort of o. 8. Deringer to Drive
Them From Their Present LOca-
tiOns-MiddIeton Murder Case.

The grand jury today will take up
the matter Of the eleven alleged houses
of Ill fame located up town which have
been bound over on information fur
nished by o. 8. Deringer. Mayor Kiefer
and Dertnger have been subpoenaed to
appear as witnesses IN the matter,
and the mayor waited two hours yes
terday afternoon in the ante chamber
for an audience.
1t Is said that the grand jury has
decided to bring about a thorough in
vestigation of the matter. and it Is un
derstood that it Is the intention of the
jurymen In case there is not sufficient
evidence furnished to indict the keep
ers Of the eleven houses in question
to wait on the mayor in a body and
inform his eXcellency that strenuous
action will be taken unless the houses
are ordered down into the special dis
trict set apart for the purpose.
Yesterday the grand jury spent the
day in examining witnesses IN connec-

gineer. who was discharged in mu-
nicipal court on preliminary examina-
ton on the charge Of assaulting child
