ARTISTS OF MERIT TO
APPEAR IN AMERICUS
Olive Mead Quartet Com
ing Monday.

The announcement in the Times
Recorder yesterday of the appearance
here on Monday night next of the
widely known Olive Mead Quartet was
hailed with delight in higher musi-
cal circles, where the work of such
well known artists is known and APP
preciated to the fullest degree
No company in America stands
higher for rare excellence and the
city is due thanks to Miss Annie
May Bell who secured this meritor-
ious party of ladies for her musical
course
And very appreciative audience
will greet them at Miss Bells studio
on Monday evening next.
The Olive Mead Quartet has charm
ed audiences in every city of impor-
lance between the Atlantic and Paci-
fic oceans, besides having appeared in
concert at Harvard, Princeton, and,
in fact, all of the universities and
clubs in the country.
Of this superb organizations the
New York Sun says
The close of the Olive Mead Quar-
tets season must not be permitted to
pass without an expression of pleas
ure at the achievement of these four
women. They constitute an organi-
cation which has gained and fully
earned high place among chamber
music bodies in this country"
The press notices, generally. be-
speak highest praise for the Olive
Mead Quartet

HEAVY EXPLOSION
WAS. REPORTED

Rev. ]. w. Connors, of Omaha, was
in the city yesterday and while here
told of a severe defamation or a mild
earthquake observed in the west and
southwestern sections of Sumter
county on Monday afternoon He
was driving near Preston about 1870
O'Clock in the afternoon when he
heard what sounded like cannon be-
ing fired. AS there was a circus in
progress at Preston he supposed that
that noise was part of the show
Later when he got to Plains he was
told that the noise had been heard
there and the windows of houses
had been Jared in many instances.
The next day he was in the south
east section of the county, and heard
the same story Mr.. Connors was
unable to explain the phenomenon,
but thought it might have been
meteor falling. Had it been an erup-
ton of explosives, it would have been

SMALL AUDIENCE
HEARD GOOD MUSIC

A small audience greeted the U. S.
Indian Band at the opera house last
night, but those who came were re-
warded by hearing an unusually good
program. 1t is the only professional
Indian band in the world, and its
members attract attention merely
by their race in addition to their
skill. Conductor Wheelock waved his
baton with precision and his move
ments were closely followed. The
program included a variety of num-
bers, American and foreign. The In
dian number presented was especial
