discovered to be on fire by the cook,
who raised the alarm. But by the time

Icelandic Chorus,

1t is now an assured fact that the
chorus of the Icelandic Singing asso-
citation will appear in Grand Forks,
at the Metropolitan opera house, on
October S. The music loving people
Of Grand Forks may we'll congratulate
themselves for having an opportunity
to hear this splendid band OF singers.
They come here with an enviable rep
utation. and it Is interesting to note
what press notices they have receiv-
ed In cities where they have appear
ed. For instance, in Winnipeg, where
they sang on the 9th of June this
year, the Winnipeg Town Topics de-
voted two columns to commenting on
their singing. The article is written
by an eminent musician, and the most
severe critic in the city of Winnipeg,
a man who is fearless in faultfinding
If there is anything to criticize in con-
necticn with any musical performance,
and this man, in his article, has no.
thing but words of praise for the men,
bers of the Icelandic Singing assoc
citation, both in regard to their solo
work and the work of the chorus in
general. Among other things, he says:
There was chorus OF 100 excel
lent singers at the second annual fes-
tival held at First Lutheran church
last Thursday evening, when an ex-
celle.nt program was sustained.
| The large chorus sang remarkably
we'll considering that this was the
first time they had met together, hav-
ing only just arrived from various
parts Of the city, and places in Man
itoba. They sang throughout from
memory. riveting their attention upon
the conductor, and interpreted his
signals promptly and with effect.
Their pharsing was excellent, their
tone pure and youthful, for in truth
all the members were this side OF the
halfway mark, and many Of the al
tos and sopranos were in their teens
The singing was entirely characters
tic of the null, broad choral style,
and was produced apparently without
the least effort on the part OF the,
singers; it was surprisingly free from
those forced tones and noisy singing
which are often found in too many
choirs in the city. The evidence Of
strain in the voices or on the faces
Of the singers not only creates i'm

WHAT THE ADVANCE
AGENTS SAY
George Ade's Latsset Play

Tomorrow evening ct the Metropoli.
tan theatsr will be presented one Of
the latest. and said to be the wittlsst
and most laughable comedy the "a
nous humorist. George AIDE, has YET
written. Since Mr.. AIDE came into pub
lie notice as a humorous writer for
the American press, he has attracted
to himself no little attention. His
humor is altogether different from any
Of his predecessors. His County
Chairman" and 1.-The College Widow
have each been seen here and they
left behind most pleasing impress
sion. These two comedies are wholly
different In theme and text from that
which he has employed in his present
offering, "Just Out of College," The
hero of the play is young man who
has just completed his course at col
lege. He is without money, but what
he is minus in this respect, he makes
up in nerve. He wants to get into
business. He is going to do great
things when he gets the opportunity.
He is in love with the daughter of the
man who is at the head of the pickle
trust. The promoter and director of
the octopus gives the young man a
chance to do something. He lends
him 100000. With this he starts a
rival pickle concern with a co-part-
ner who knows all about pickles.
When the new industry is in the hey
day Of its prosperity, the would-be
father-tn-law is brought to the firm
realization that he has q formidable
enemy and buys out the opposition at
a figure which leaves the youth a
handsome profit and in the end he
marries the daughter.

cided to take a trip by easy stages
around the world. 1t was only Friday
last that his symptoms seemed to be
alarming, and even then it was not be-
lieved that his condition was serious.
Mr.. Falk is survived by his wife and
four brothers, Gen. Otto H, Herman
W., Clarence r. and Louis w. Falk,
and one sister, Mrs. Paul D. Carpenter.
His wife was daughter of Col. William
Jacobs, a pioneer resident of Milwaukee,
and at one time president of the Second
Ward bank.
Mr.. Falk was born in Milwaukee coun-
ty in 1854. He began his long and sue
cessful business career as a clerk in the
Second Ward Savings bank. Later he
was made president of the Franz Falk
Brewing company, which was founded
by his father, and when the Falk, Jung
& Borchert Brewing company was
formed, Mr.. Falk became president, be-
ing associated with his brothers. After
two disastrous fires, which destroyed the
plant of the company in the Menomonee
valley, the stock of the concern was alb
sorbed by the Pabst Brewing company,
and Mr.. Falk became treasurer of the
latter company. He had been retired
since leaving the brewing company
spending much of his time abroad. He
was a man of most genial disposition and
enjoyed an extended acquaintance among
business men.

MUST HIT THE SAWDUST
Fond du Lac (Wis.) Aldermen Are Pro-
hibited from Smoking and Spit
ting on the Floor.

FOND DU LAC, Wis, April 6.-[Spe-
cial. l-After passing an ordinance to pro-
hibit expectorating on the streets and in
the public places of Fond du Lac, the
aldermen have been caught violating this
city law.
The chief of police has been instruct
ed to post a notice in the council rooms
telling the city dads that they have been
prohibited from smoking and splitting on
the floor. Cuspidors and sawdust boxes
will be provided, and plug cut will be
tolerated as long as the receptacles are
in line. but smoking-never.
1t is not known who is back of the or
der to enforce the ordinance. Wise ones
say that the chief of police, who always
attends the council meetings, might have
arrested a number of violators of the
law, but he has confined his duties to fill
ing the water pitcher on tho press table
and arguing spring shooting with City
Clerk L. A. Pettibone in the small room
adjoining the council chamber.

DRIFT ON ICE 36 HOURS.
Peshtigo Harbor Fishermen Carried from
Shore-Suffer Hunger and
Exposure.

MARINETTE, Wis, April 4.-[Spe-
cial.]-Four Peshtigo Harbor fishermen,
Hans Opsahl, William Johnson, Nicholas
Nelson and Charles Lubas, while lifting
nets on the ice south of Peshtigo point
Thursday afternoon were blown out on
the lake.
The field of ice began to separate into
small pieces and started to blow out into
the lake. The current was so swift that
the four men were being carried out
rapidly and with apparently no chance
of getting back The ice, breaking into
small pieces, increased the danger
against them. Fortunately they had with
them some ice cutters and these they
used to detach small portions Of the ice
field. Each man, in this way, managed
to cut off enough of the ice to float with
and succeeded in successfully crossing
the open spaces and finally i'll reaching
the shore last night, after thirty-six
hours. The men had nothing to eat and
had to brave the wintry blasts and when
they finally managed to reach shore
they were almost exhausted.
In the meantime their friends on shore
had become excited about them and had
procured gasoline launches and set out in
search. The boats were unable to make
any progress and had to give up.

THREE BADLY SCALDED.
One Man Fatally Burned in Marinette
Paper Mill by Explosion of
Digestor.

MARINETTE, Wis, April 4.-[spe-
cial. lin an accident in the digester
room of the No. paper mill Of the
Marinette & Menomnee Paper company
st night. three men were badly burned.
Cornelius Borse will die and Frank
Reinke and August S. Bohr are in
critical condition and may not recover.
The plate on the valve leading from
the digester to the pipe which conveys
the stock, blew off, due to a weak clamp.
There was a pressure of 10 pounds of
steam on at the time, and the steam
and the stock hurled with terrible force,
struck the three men who were working
in the digester room. They were blown
up against the brick wall. All three man
aged to crawl out of the room, but were
terribly burned. Borse was the last to
leave the room. 1t is supposed that
when he was blown up against the brick
wall, he became stunned and lay in the
room until the flesh became boiled in
places His face was unacceptable.
The cause of the accident was the
failure of the clamp to keep the plate
on the valve
