He has but lately returned to the
city from Asheville, where he

KASKASKIA'S OLD BELL.
It Was Cast in 174l and Presented by
King Louis XAV.

Although Illinois does not form a part
of the territory comprised within the
Louisiana purchase, it is probable that
the famous old bell of the Catholic
church at kaskaskia will be one of the
most interesting historical relics which
will be exhibited at that greatest of all
coming events, the ST. Louis worlds fair
of 1903. This bell was the first whose
musical tones We're ever heard in the
Mississippi valley, and for many years
more than century it announced the
hours of worship to the devout residents
of old kaskaskia.
1t was cast in France in the year 1741,
and in 1742 was presented to the infant
church in America by King Louis XIV.
1t is now cracked and weather beaten,
the French and Latin Inscriptions with
which it was decorated are barely dis
cernible, and it has long since been re-
placed by larger bell.

AMERICAN MACHINES ABROAD.

An automobile expert, who has recent

the American-built machines are taking
the first rank in England. just as ten or
fifteen years ago all American buggies
compelled German coach builders to inn
port from the United States until they
had time TO manufacture carriages after
our models. In England most of the
machines are gasolene motors imported
and evil smelling, wit hmore mechanism

vehicles are unknown, excepting only
those of American make. IN Paris
there are q great number of gaso!ene

A man. said to be James J. Cook. re-
Gently of the Occur d'Alenes, was es-

A SPLENDID PROGRAMME.
Miss Leonora Jackson Entertained a
Large Audience Last Evening.

Leonora Jackson. the famous violin
ist appeared at Sutton's Family theater
last night under the auspices Of the
Woman's club, and the house was
crowded with one of the most fashion
a BILE audiences that it ever contained.
Miss Jackson's recital was a decided
musical treat, and as such was thor
cughly enjoyed by an audience capable
of understanding her wonderful talent.
Her playing combines brilliancy and
expression that is seldom heard. Her
execution is perfect and she plays with
an ease that is remarkabl BILE. She pro-
6uces a bell-like tone from the strings
of her violin that is pleasantly different
from the raspinss of the ordinary fine
player" In few words, Miss Jackson
is one of the most finished violinists
who ever visited the city, and the Wo-
mans club deserves a vote Of thanks
for bringing her here.
Miss Jackson has played before all
of the crowned heads of Europe, where
she Won fame and friends, and on one
occasion she was presented with a fine
pin set With diamonds by Queen Vie
toria. She has won valuable prizes in
Germany and other countries. Last
night she was very gracious in respond
ing to encoreS.
Mr. Pratt accompanied her on the
piano. and his work on that instrument
was magnificent. He favored the audi
ence with several solos and was APP
rlauded to such an extent that ne was
compelled to respond to encores.
Miss Elburna had the voice part of
the programme. ana favored her hear
ers with a number of solos. Her voice
is sweet soprano, which has been very
highly cultivated. and is wholly under
the control of the lady. She has a bell
like quality that is charming, and was
popular as soon as she made her ap-
pearance. Like Miss Jackson, she was
very. gracious in responding TO encores
| and did so several times.
