This song was written by the famous Ger
man composed and dedicated expressly to
the Omaha Mannerchor. Under the title on
the printed music is the dedication an
nouncement, and this goes all over the
world wherevever Germans gather to sing,
spreading the name OF the Omaha organi-
zation. The members are particularly proud
OF the song and the honor paid the society.
Perhaps the most generally popular num-
bers on the program were those of the Gem
ischter choir, or mixed chorus. Folksongs
and simple ballads, such as "Fruhlings-
zeit' and "Hoch vom Dachstein An" were
rendered by the male and female voices
combined, with pleasing effect.
Herr Karl Peterson directed the singing
and the entertainment After its close the
hall was cleared for the dancing.

Its Recent Discovery Will Relieve the

Meerschaum, which has heretofore come
from Turkey, in Asia Minor, has recently
been found In New Mexico, and the scare
ity which has characterized it's produc-
tion during the past few years will, from
present indications, soon be at an end.
The mines are in the Diablo range or
mountains, about twenty miles northwest
of Pinos Altos. to which branch of the
Santa Fe railroad runs from Deming
Two veins have been stripped for 1900 feet
each; in them there is carried, between
strongly defined walls, meerschaum in
widths of twenty inches. The veins are
vertical and give evidence that they were
formed through the splitting apart OF
volcanic conglomerate. theory still fur
ther confirmed by the blowouts and de-
posits of float that have been thus far
discovered, and finally by the fact that
kidneys of pure meerschaum in various
sizes are obtainable from this surface
material, although it has been subjected
to the decomposing effects of the ele-
ments, impregnation of vegetable matter
and the seepage of other minerals in So
luton into 1t for centuries. A wagon road
Is now being built from the mines to
Pinos Altos, a distance of twenty miles,
and when this is completed the meer-
schaum will be marketed.-Mining and
