BADGER SHERIFF
IS SHOT DOWN
HARRIS OF ST. CRoIX MURDERED
BY UNIDENTIFIED MAN.
Tragedy ON Train Out of Eau Claire
Stranger Arrested on Suspicion
Kills the Officer and Escapes Be-
fore Hand Can Be Lifted-Armed
Men in Pursuit.

Eau Claire, Wis, June 20.-Several par
ties of well-armed citizens and one COM
pany Of the Wisconsin militia are search
ing the country in the vicinity OF Little
Falls and Augusta, Wis, for the man who
shot and killed Sheriff Harry Harris OF
ST. Crnix county, Wisconsin, on an Omaha
- <,In3near Little Falls. 1t is believed the
fugitive cannot long elude arrest.
J The sheriff started from Hudson Sat
urday evening to get man who was
wanted for some offense at Roberts, Wis,
and as he passed thru Roberts heard or
O robbery at one Of the hotels.
When the description Of the hotel rob-
Der was given to him, he was struck at
once by the fact that it was Identical IN
almost every detail with the description
Of man accused Of a recent murder at
Hayre, Mont.
Sheriff Harris made inquiries at Eau
Claire when he reached that place. A
police officer told him that such a man
had spent the day In Eau Claire, and ne
AOlieved was about to leave on the same
train by which the sheriff was travelling.
The police officer volunteered to go thru
the train with Harris to look for the man,
but Harris said he would search the train
after 1t had started.
In the smoker Harris found q young
man whose appearance closely CORE
sponded with the description he had in
mind. He began to question him, but the
fellow soon became impatient ana started
to rave. Harris then announced himself.
and, taking hold Of the man by the lapel
of his coat, was about to push him back
into the seat, when the suspect suddenly
drew a revolver and fired three shots.
The first struck Harris in the face at the
side Of the nose; the second in the back
Of the head, and the third in the left arm
Altho there were perhaps twenty men in
the smoking car, the shooting was done
so quickly that before any one realized
what had happened the murderer had
jumped from the moving train.
1t has been learned that he stole a
horse and buggy and drove to Augusta,
but there all trace is lost.
Company G Of the militia, stationed at
Hudson, has been ordered out to hunt for
the murderer.
Harris was a resident of Baldwin, Wis,
was Al years old and popular. Funeral
will take place Tuesday.

Special to The Journal.
Inside Inn, st. Louis Mo-, June 20.
In the finest display of butter ever
made, Minnesota was awarded the
highest scoring Of any state at the
competitive exhibition in the dairy de-
partment at the Worlds Fair. Elk
hibitors from the state received the
highest scoring, not only in creamery
and print butter, but also In the dairy
article.
In the entire display, 355 samples
scored 90 and better, ninety scored 95
and better. More than half of those
scoring 90 and better were Minnesota
products. This shows that victory was
not alone to the individual, but was
general.
The five individual exhibitors who
received the highest markings We're:
M. Songegard, Hutchinson, 9Sh; w. +.
Stahman, Loretta, 98h; l.. Karson,
Darwin, 98k; L. B. Anderson, Albert
Lea, 98A; H. H. Jensen, Clark's Grove,
98A, all of Minnesota. Other honors
were scattered widespread over the
Gopher state and represent many eff
ferent counties.
Such a complete victory for Min
nesota gives it the claim to being the
finest butter-making state in the coun-
try.

SUIT HAS BEEN FILED.

Morgantown Tin Plate Plant tine
Cause Of the Snit-What is lnvolyed
In it-Company has Been lfampered
by Differences Among Stockholders.
A petition 10 bankruptcy has beer
filed against the Morgantown Tin
Plate Company whose plant is located
above town and in which the fires
have never been lit. This action wa,
taken by the common creditors.
Among the largest creditors are the
Cerliss Engine Company, the Dunbar
Fire Brick Company, the Canton Rol
& Engine Company and the Northern
Electrical Manufacturing Company.
The company has expended about
$780, 900 en- the plant which was Sc
cared from the sale Of $3.50, 900 worth
of stock and an equal amouht Of bonds.
1t will take aboat $50, 600 more TO get
IL into operation.
1t is stated that an effort win be
made TO settle the suit before it pro
ceeds far. The plant was built by
the Rolling Mill Company Of America
and recently turned over by them to
the Tin Plate company.
Had it not been for d.sagreements
among the stockholders it would have
been started long ago with no fnan-
cial difficulties to hamper it. These
are expected to be removed before
long, and the concern will then be en-
abled to begin work.

HOW He WORKS.
Contrast Between Methods of stranss
and Those of Other COmpOsars.

No one has realized better than
Strauss the exact value OF each instru-
ment as an element in the production
OF tone color. 1T is interesting to ccm-
pare his Instrumentation with that
of another great master, Tscbaikow-
sky. There is as sharp contrast be-
tween the style OF the two musicians
as between the painting Of Sargent
and Lord Leighton. Richard Strauss
music can affect our ears; much as
Sargent's Carnation, lily, rose"
or his "Clrmencita disturb yet
withal fascnate our eyes. Whereas
10 listening to Tschaikowsky, with
few exceptions; we retain an impress
sion Of much the same mingled rich
ness aud velyety softneSs of colorin1
Which satisfy as In Lord Leighton's
pictures.
That Strauss has also greatly ex-
banded the orchestra is indisputable
With but very little alteration the
different parts OF his scores might
each be rendered as the solo part of
concerto; style of composition
which points to au orchestra Of the
future in which each player will be
finished virtu, so. The cello title
role OF his "Don Quxote' tone poem,
together with the lass tuba part Of
the same score, are examples Of what
he expects his performers to accom-
plish. When this score was finished
he had to search Germany throag ii
before be could find players capable Of
rendering these two adequately
His plan of musical characterization
is to treat the different instruments
as If they were singers in an opera,
and to make each define a certain
character or certain train Of thought.
Not only he created great school of
orchestral virtuosity. but in his melo-
drama "Enoch Arden he has given us
the NEST satisfactory attempt which
has ever been made at combining mu-
sic and speech.

MUSICAL TRIUMPH.
Appearance of Strauss in New
York Brilliant Success.

The World Is lavish in Its Praise OF
His Musical Ability-Eyents of the
Evening Barbarian YaWns During
Thrilling Passage.
Richard Strauss, greatest Of living
composers, made his first appearance
in tilis couatry last night at Carnegie
Hall The concert was the arst one
Of the Richard Strauss Festival a
series OF musical events devoted ex-
clusively 20 the production Of conpo-
sitions. by Strauss.
He was greeted last night In so en-
Lhusiastic q manner that it must have
been revelation to him. It is com
monty taken fol- granted across the
water that we benighted ones over
here are musical barbarians, says the
New York World. But Strauss, at
least, saw and heard enough to dissi-
pate this rumor. After the close q
the frst number, that colossal study
of mastery musical Intricacies, "Thus
Spake Zarathustra,n the audience
vented its sentiment Of appreciation
in one fervent burst of applause after
another AT this point the composer
appeared on the platform, bowed his
thanks to the audience, congratulated
Conductor Wetzler and admitted bis
Indebtedness to the orchestra, which
broke out in greeting fanfare.
strauss only arrived in this country
on Wednesday, and since then both
he and Wetzler have busted them
selves rehearsing the large orchestra
needed TO perform these works.
At last nights concert, which was
the final one Of The Wetzler Symphony
series, Strauss conducted his tone
poem, "a Heros Life" This gigantic
work has been heard here several
times before, but this seemed not in
the least to diminish the public's in
terest. 1t was keenly anxious to hear
the composers own interpretation of
one of his most complex compositions
and also to make his acquaintance as
a conductor
As the latter he is famous both as a
leader OF operas, being the first con-
ductor at the Berlin Opera House, and
as the head Of symphony orehestras.
His attitude at tne conductors desk
is entirely free from airy pose. lie
holds himself strictly erect save when
ceaxing climaxes, then clenched fist
at certain orchestral chairs and a
slight nervous bending Of the knees
conveys his eager desire.
To go into a detailed account Of his
reading world be an endless task
Suffice it to say that he is an efficient
leader, who unrayelled the complica-
lions of the most involved passages
of this tone poem With remarkable
skill. Over certain other parts he
fingered fondly, and one forgiyes him
this, as the work is one Of his beloved
musical children.
AT the close Of the work Strauss
was rewarded with cheers and en-
plause, being called out to bow his
Acknowledgements numberless times.
1t was most gratifying beginning Of
the Strauss festival. The one ludic-
rous event Of the evening was the de-
parture Of staid citizen during the
tumultuous battle music in GA Hero's
Life" This individual forced ms way
to the aisle, UP which he traipsed,
yawning publicly.
