Professor Harvey was born in Chic1go

metropolis until 1890, then coming to Bloom

his precocity as a musician and won much
prominence by appearing in concerts in

gave him course under the great masters
OF Europe. He spent several years in Ber-
lin. and his talent was demonstrated by
his appearance in number OF the greatest
concert halls of Europe.

LOUIS BOISMENUE'S
OFFICE AT STAKE,
Republicans of East st. Louis in
FactiOnal Fight for Election
Commissioner Position.

Republican politicians are drawing their
wires for their favortes whom they think
will stand a chance to be appointed Elec-
ton Commissioner at East st. Louis to
succeed Louis Boismenue, whose term ex-
pires on December 10.
Mr.. Boismenue has served for six years
and many Republicans want some other
member of the party to be appointed to
the position, although 1t is understood that
MIR. Boismenue is not avcrse to accepting
another term in this office, which pays $3.50
a year.
The strongest man thus far mentioned
seems to be George Caughliu. the Deputy
Marriage License Clerk OF East ST. Louis
and a former member of the State Legis-
lature. 1t is believed by some of the Re
pubicans that union of at least two of
the factions may be accomplished by the
appointment of Mr.. Caughlin TO this office
Members Of Mr.. Caughlins faction are
averse to him accepting the position on the
ground that he would thus place himself
under obligations to the members of the
faction securing his appointment. A lively
fight is promised no matter who is appoint
ed to the position in spite of the efforts
of the Republican leaders to attempt 10
conciliate the various factions by the spoils
of office. 1t is possible tnat Judge Perrin.
who makes the appointment, may con-
clude to reappolnt Mr.. Boismenue.
