COUNTY, MINI, WEDNESDAY, MARCH Is i
II Trovatore
Attracts Large Audience at Turner
Theatre last Night.

As fine an audience as has ever greet.
ed q play in this city was out to hear the
Gordon Shay Grand Opera Co. last even
ing in the presentation of Verdi's famous
opera, II Trovatore. While grand opera
is not the most attractive thug for the
general public, there are few Who will
miss an opportunity to see one when that
opportunity is as good as that afforded
the people of this and surrounding places,
last night. The opera was in all respects
up to the standard advertised and was:
equal in all respects to that which is
seen IN the theatres in the cities. It was
9 treat to the music LOVING people Of this
nelghborhood and was thoroughly enjoy
ed by all present.
Last night at the Turner Theatre this
company appeared in II Trovatore and
there has certainly not been as fine a
musical treat IN the city this season a..
It was not generally known that Miss
Shay was not present or there would no
doubt have been some DISAPPOINTMENT.
She completely collapsed while playing
Carmen in Mankato the night before and
was unable to come to this city. Her
place was filled by Miss Helen Noldi
whose beautiful singing could hardly be
excelled even By Miss Shay. She has
clear bird like tone Of a volume and
sweetness that is carried throughout the
entire performance and cannot fail to
hold the attention Of the merest tyro in
music. Mr.. Stevens, the baritone is a
Mankato boy and his magnificent voice
filled the theatre to the utmost and was
eompl1mented by all. The tenor Of Mr..
Fredericks is very satisfactory, and the
part is we'll taken. Signor Albert was
splendid. BE has magnificent baritone,
fine physique, and stable manner. The
chorus is we'll trained and last night was
in excellent voice. There have been
choruses on the stage that have made
more noise, but few that have made bet
ter music. The settings were good and
the costumes appropriate.
The handsome delegation that came
from Sleepy Eye and Springfield was
something that was unlocked for and was
a compliment to the good taste of those
wide awake places. In speaking of ii
the management Of the the theatre ex-
pressed themselves as more than pleased
and wish through the papers to tender
them the thanks of all concerned for their
presence at the play assures the manage
ment that it can figure on securing the
best of attractions and feel that there are
people in the county outside of this city.
who have tastes in that direction strong
enough to guarantee an audience that
will pay the expense of securing good
attractions.

Bad Wreck at Sleepy Eve,

One of the most DISASTROUS railroad ac-
cidents that ever occurred in this place
happened last night at Z 80 O'Clock. An
extra freight with about twenty five cars
coming from the east collided with the
night switch engine, the latter backing
up in the east yards with seventeen cars
of wheat. Both engines and tenders are
complete mass of debris, the engine on
the incoming train was derailed and
thrown in the ditch, while the main body
of the switch engine was not thrown from
the track.
The loss of property, however, is not
the worst feature of this deplorable acct
dent August Shaumkessel, the fireman
on the incoming tram was fatally burned
by escaping steam so that he died at II
o'clock.
The freight train coming into town
was managed by Conductor Olif An6er-
son, Brakeman Chris Nissen and F. j.
Conley, Engineer Wn. Reinsmith and
the unfortunate man Skaumkessel fire.
man.
The local switch engine was in con-
troll Of Conductor John johnson, Engi-
neer n. II. Wallraf, Fireman G. G. Breed,
Brakeman ]. a. Alyea and 3. B. Smith.
Conductor johnson was doing switch
ing in the east yard when accident occur
red. His engine was backing out of a
sidetrack on to the main line with seven
teen cars loaded with wheat when the
collision took place. Engineer Wallraff
and his fireman Charlie Breed state that
their engine came near to standstill
before being struck.
The company took charge of the body
of the dead man and will take it to Wa
SEGA for burial tomorrow morning. There
will be no inquest.
The accident is q most deplorable one
and someone is to blame for it. All the
crews of both trains are ordered, to re-
port at Winona Monday morning.

RADICAL CHANCE ROp OSED
Commercial Union Takes Steps to
Change the Methods Of Street
Work.
WANT ovERsEERs APPOINTED
Committee is Elected to Attend the
Municipal League in
St. Paul.

At the regular meeting Of the Com.
mercial Union that was held Friday
evening. some important questions were
brought up which called forth some ex-
cellent suggestions, chief among which
was thequestion Of the care OF the streets.
The opinion of those present was the
city is paying more for the service that
it was getting than was necessary and
that with the money expended much
more could be done if the matter was in
the right hands. Considering the great
natural advantage that he city has, it
was argued that under the present man
agement were 1t otherwise the streets
would be in a deplorable condition.
There is no doubt of the fact that it is
easy to keep the streets in fair condl-
ton in this city with little labor and it
is also true that there are many improve
ments that could be made if the right
man was at the head of the department,
and to further this 1t was decided to APP
point committee to wait on the coun.
Gil and present the wishes of the Union
in the matter, urging the appointment of
one competent man whose duty 1t shall
be to look after the streets and dictate
the work that shall be done, and also
suggesting the name of the man who
would take the place and be competent
to fill it. The suggestion was made by
J. A. Ecksteln, and in accordance with
his wishes the following men were named
as the committee: Phil. L1esch, F. H.
Behnke and B. Juni.
The matter of the condition of the
street leading from the city north toward
West Newton was brought up and it was
stated that it is in many places al
most impossible and that immediate
steps should be taken to have it remedied.
To further this committee composed of
Ferd. Crone, L. J. Buenger, F. H. Behnk e
and B. Juni was appointed to bring the
matter before the city council, asking
that the street be fixed.
The matter of the Cannon Falls con-
vention Of the city authorities and the
business organizations, at st. Paul on
the 18th, was taken up and it was de-
cided that the Union would send two
delegates to the convention and Phil.
Liesch and III. Buenger were appoint
ed. These men representing the Union
are to act in conjunction with the mem
bers of the city council appointed for
the same purpose, and as result of the
meeting at St. Paul it is expected that
an organization will be created that will
have great weight in influencing ques-
lions that will effect the welfare of the
cities in the state.
The question Of sprinkling the streets
was brought up and attention was call
ed to the fact that the city had decided
to assess the entire cost Of sprinkling to
the property owners instead of two
thirds as last year.
A Recommendation was also made that
the Union bring to the notice of the
council favorable report on the sug.
gestion of the mayor that the city have
two day police. The resolution had only
one Dissenting vote.

Wide Sheds.

A bill intended to improve country
roads by encouraging the use of bob-sleds
of the same gauge as farm wagons was
introduced Yesterday by Representative
Sven Magnuson Of Washington county.
The bill provides that persons using
sleds whose runners are the same distance
apart as the wheels of farm wagons shall
be allowed reduction of So per year in
their road and bridge tax, provided such
reduction does not exceed one.half Of
the tax.
The runners Of sleds usually are near
er together than the wheels of wagons,
and the result is that during the beginn-
ing and end of sleighing the roads are
cut up and rough, and there are two sets
of tracks, instead of one we'll beaten
wheel and sled track, as would be the
case if sleds and wagons were of equa
gauge.
