KeIso School of Mus.e Notes.


In honor of Mr. II. s. Kelso, Jr, a re-
ception was given by the Senior and
Junior Kelso clubs last Monday evening.
The members of the clubs and limited
number of their friends had the pleasure
of meeting Mr.. Kelso. who very generos-
~ consented to play. So charmed were
the listeners with his mastery and ar
tistic rendition OF the 'Leuerzauber,"
from Wagners Der Ring des Nibelun-
gen''-"If I were Bird Henslet and
''Tanhauser Wagner-Liszt' - that
he gave several encorese. All were very
enthusiastic and many enquired if he
would give a public recital when he
visits Wichita next summer. Mr.. Kelso
in his Interpretation of the great mas
tiers is an inspiration TO students and
teachers of music, and the guests felt
they were highly favored to have an
opportunity to hear such a gifted artist
and hope he will decide TO give a re-
cital next summer.
Mr.. Kelso went to Wellington to ex-
anime the work of Mrs. Tichenor's large
class of fifty pupils.
The summer term promises to be IN
usually successful. That the superior
ity of the Kelso method is constantly
increasing is obvious from the fact that
a number of students have recently en-
rolled, after having studied various
other methods.
Mrs. Brain of Pond Creek called this
week and expressed great satisfaction
with her daughters progress. Although
Miss Paulina has been a pupil of the
school for only three weeks, her mother
could notice much improvement, which
is highly gratifying to the management
and proves the thoroughness of the work
given in this school.
The Senior Kelso club viii meet on
Tuesday evening, June II, and the Junior
club next Saturday. at 4 O'CLOCK

Great Northern Wants Merger Suits
Tried in Ramsey County.
St. Paul. Feb. demands for q
change of venue from Hennepin coun-
ty to Ramsey county have been fled
in the Ramsey county district court
in the two merger suits" begun in
Hennepin county. and tiled in the dis
trict court of that county Jan. 81 last.
In one of these suits John B. Mar
quand is the plaintiff, on his own ac-
count and for other stockholders, and
the defendants are the Northern Pa
cific Railway company and the Of
ficers and directors of the railway
company.
In the other suit Milton Bouden and
Sophia Barth Chapman are the plant
ifs and the Great Northern Railway
company, it's officers and directors, are
the defendants. +
Each suit is brought to restrain the
consummation of the so-called mer-
ger as contrary to the laws of the,
state of Minnesota. In the former
suit, c. W. Bum and Frank B. Kel-
logg, as attorneys, make affidavit that
the principal place of business of the
road is in St. Paul, that certain of the
officers and directors live in St. Paul,
while the others are non-residents of
the state.
In the latter suit, NJ D. Grover for
the Great Northern makes affidavit to

DAMAGED THE cREsPo.
Venezuelan Insurgent Boat Fires Upon
a Government Vessel.


Willemstad, Island of Curacao, Feb.
11.-General Andrade, the former
president of Venezuela, who reached
this island recently. embarked on
board the revolutionary steamer Lib
ertador during the night of Feb. 8.
The Libertador some days ago landed
a force of insurgents on the Venezue-
Ian coast and they subsequently took
possession of the village of Cumarebo,
situated near LIE Vela de Goro. The
Venezuelan gunboat General Crespo,
which attempted to prevent the land
ing, was fired upon and badly damaged
by the Libertador The Crespo had
her propeller snaft broken.
The success of the Libertador has
caused sensation at Caracas, where
great commotion prevails. The news
received there from the interior of
Venezuela is not favorable to the gov
ernment. It is announced that the in
surgents are very active. especially in
the vicinity of Barquisimeto. -.
: The revolution against President
Castro is gaining ground visibly.
Cannonading has been heard here
from early morning in the direction of
the Venezuelan coast. It is believed
that the Libertador has been engaged
with another Venezuelan gunboat.
The report of the engagement be-
tween the Libertador and the Gen
eral Crespo appears to be confirmed.
It is further asserted that the Crespo
sank in the roadstead of Cumarebo.

FELL OVER A CLIFF.
Mother Killed and Daughter Seriously
Injured.

New York, Feb. 11.-Mrs. Elwood P.
Feichenon of MorristoWn, N. j. took
her 14-year-old daughter Mabel and
Alberta Collins, a neighbors child, to
Green Pond to see the forest fires on
Copperas mountain. They climbed a
steep hill to get a better view and
stood near the edge of cliff with a
sheer drop of 200 feet. The wind was
blowing a gale and Mabel walked to-
ward the edge of the cliff. The child's
skirts were caught by a violent gust
of wind and she was carried along,
despite all efforts to stop.
Mrs. Fichenon saw her daughters
peril and ran after her Mabel was
blown over the edge of the precipice
just as her mother grasped at her
skirts. Mrs. Fichenon could not re-
cover her balance and both fell to the
rocks below.
The Collins girl ran for help and
men hurried to the foot of the cliff.
The mothers neck had been broken
and death had been instantaneous.
Mabel's arms were broken and she
was otherwise badly hurt, but she may
live 2

Decision Of the Circuit Court Of APP
peals in Army Cases.

Z aT
st. Louis. Feb. 11.-Established pre-
cedents of the United States army
were overthrown and the freedom OF
nearly 200 men now confined ~ led
eral psnitentiaries was assured by q
decisioa rendered by the United
States circuit court of appeals IN the
case az Peter G. Deming, former cap
tain of United States volunteers,
against Robert w. McClaury, warden
of the federal penitentiary at Fort
.Leavenworth. Deming was impr1son-
ed on the sentence of courtmartlal
composed of nine regular army OF
ficers, convened by General w. i.
Shafter on March 20, 1900. The opinl-
ion of the circuit court, written by
Judge Walter S. Sanborn, is that the
courtmartial which sentenced Dem1ng
acted in violation of article " OF the
articles of war, which provides that
officers Of the regular army shall not
be competent to sit on courtmart1al
for the trial of officers and soldiers or
other forces.
The essential question, as stated IN
Judge Sanborn's opinion, is whether
the volunteer army is the same as the
regular army, or whether it is one OF
the "other forces" mentioned in ar.
ticle II. The opinion establishes the
fact that the volunteer army is at all
times distinct from the regular army
Deming will be released from the
Fort Leavenworth penitentiary within
six days and all former members o'
the volunteer army who are confined
in federal prisons on sentences in
ficted by courtmartial of regular OF
fcers will also be liberated as the re
suit of the decision, it is stated.

Shaw has decided to investigate the
charges that have been made against
the inspectors of baggage at the New

LOSS OVER A MILLION.
immense Shops at Springfield, O., De-
stroyed by Fire.

stroyed by Fire
Springfield, D., Feb. 1.-The great
East street shops, built by William
N. Whitley the reaper king, at a cost
of $2,000,00O, were destroyed by fire
during the day. The shops were oc-
cupied by the Springfield Foundry
company, Progress Stove and Furnace
company, Indianapolis Frog and.
Switch company, Kyle Art Glass COM
pany, Krell French Piano company.
Miller Gas Engine company, Champion
Chemical company and Owens Ma
chine Tool company. The building
was bought by Senator Fairbanks of
Indiana 10 years ago, following the
failure Of Whitley. The loss is over
$1,000,000. Water pressure was in
sufficient and firemen were handi-
capped from the start.
A wind from the west was sweeping
, the fire back over the wings to the
rear. At 10 o'clock the whole front
of the building, which is five stories
high, was ablaze. fIalf an hour later
the walls began to tumble in. The
heat was so intense that the flremen
! worked with the greatest difficulty.
! About 1000 men were employed by
| the different concerns located in the
building.
The great East street shops were
] built nearly 35 years ago by Whitley
Fassler & Kelly, of which William N
/ Whitley was the dominating factor
The shops at the time Of their compile
tion were the second largest in the
world, being rivaled only by the grea1

( The shops at one time had $500 me1
on the payroll.

for rest and reflection after its recent
activities, that may be regarded with
satisfaction. General conditions are
sound; credit Is not overstrained, and
there is vastly more prudence in re-
gard to new and untried enterprises

rather severe lessons have been
learned with advantage during that
interval. AS a. result the present un-

confidence in the future Easy money

PINNED DOWN AND cREMATED
Northern Pacific Fireman Meets
Terrible Death.

Seattle, Wash. Feb. 1.-THE north
bound freight train over the Seattle
Sumas branch of the Northern Pacific
ran into huge landslide at Lake sta
ton, Is miles north of Seattle.
Charles Fietz, the fireman, was caught
between the boiler of the engine and
one of the box cars which had piled
on top of it and was burned to death.
He begged the crew to cut off his arm
by which he was held. but before he
could be released he was dead. It is
believed that the jarring of the train
started the slide which buried the
track under thousands of tons OF dirt
and rock. The train ran into it and
the engine was precipitated into Lake
Washington. Fietz was the only one
Of the crew injured.

NO RIGHT TO iNTERPOSE.
Suit to Prevent Confirmation of Bishop
Gore Thrown Out.


London, Feb. 11.-ln the kings
bench division of the high court of
justice the lord chief justice, Baron
A1verstone. discharged the rule nisf
in the case of the Rt. Rev. Charles A.
Gore against the confirmation Of
whose election to the bishopric Of
Worcester John Kensit and other an
ti-ritualists successfully appealed to
the court Jan. "a for mandamus
against the archbishop of Canterbury
and the vicar general, Sir James
Parker, directing them to hear the OBJ
jections. '
The lord chief justice held that the
objectors had no right to interpose
pointing out that no such interfer-
ence in the crowns prerogative to
nominate bishops had been tolerated
since the reign of Henry VIII.
The court suggested, however, that
it might be advisable to modify the
form of public citation in the case of
the confirmation of election of bish-
ops with the view of removing the
temptation to raise objections at un-
suitable times.
