Artist.

Mics Henriett Weber, pianist OF
eastern reputation. gave q most enter
tanning piano concert at the opera
house last Wednesday evening under
the auspices of the Episcopal church.
Mss Weber won her way into the
hearts of all by her unassuming and
graceful manner. when she first APP
peared and gave an explanatory talk
on her first group. After her first
number we knew her to be true
artist. Whether in the difficult

rewiske. the Carnival Mignon" by
Schutt. or Chopin's S sad Nocturnes. -

probation, perfect technique. and tenn

and dance of the Elves from mid

almost phenomenal. and although it

j. w. Barborka. of Clinton, has
purchased of DR.. L. M. Coon the
stock of the Main Street jewelry
store. Mr.. Barborka is AN Iowa City
boy and as young man was we'll
known to number of Denison peo-
pie. His father under whom he
leaned his trade was one of the best
known men in his line in Iowa. He
was not only watch repairer. but a
watch maker and builder of tower
clocks. The entire family is musical
and in our student days we remember
that the Barborka orchestra was the
standard all over eastern Iowa. Mr..
Barborka is an expert on the violin
and on the harp and his beautiful $500
instrument will be an innovation
which Denison people will greatly en-
joy. Mr.. Barborka appears to be an
energetic young business man and he
will be welcomed to Denison business
and musical circles.
His family is with him and will
soon be settled in a Denison home.

HOTEL LEASE
FALLS THROUGH
NEGOTIATIONS WITH MINNEAPOLIS PARTIES
AT A STANDSTILL
THE DIFFERENCES ARE SMALL
And it is Thought that Dunn and Sons will
Soon Complete Lease Of the Big Hotel

Messrs, Voss, Naeve and SERVER
who were committee of the stock
holders to arrange lease of the new
hotel with w. F. Dunn and Sons, of
Minneapolis. have returned from a
visit to that city with the report
that at the last moment minor
differences prevented the completion
of the lease. Mr.. Naeve tells US that
the matter is still open and he has
faith that within the next twenty four
hours the deal will be tinishend up.
Mr.. Dunn and his sons are ex-
perienced hotel men. They have
sufficient capital to carry through
their project and they have high
ideals of the manner in which such
an hotel should be run. Business men
|of Minneapolis speak of them in the
highest terms and there is no question
but that in their hands the Denison
Hotel could be one of the very best
in Iowa. The difference between the
parties is only a detail as to the
furnishing.
At reasonable rent such as the
citizens offer the building. there is
no question but that good hotel can
be made to pay the proprietor fair
profit. Denison has goud railroad
facilities. 1t is the finest hotel build
ing from Council Bluffs to Cedar
Rarids on the Northwestern and to
Dubuque ON the Illinois Central. 1t
will undoubtedly attract trade from
commercial travellers all over this
part of Iowa. 1t will be finer hotel
than can be boasted by Fort Dodge.

THEY RECEIVED $4,000
The Parents Of Joe Hird Receives His Insur
ance from Modern Woodman

Joe Hird. whose death stirred our
community so, was thoughtful enough
to have policy of insurance in the
Modern Woodman Of America and on
Tuesday of this week an order came
on C. H. McNider, Of Mason City,
authorizing him to pay two thousand
dollars to MIR. Hird's mother. The
policy had been kept up for the past
two years by his brother Isaac of
Manila. The man who is yet young
enough to get some insurance. and
does not do so. is not treating his
Family right. The money coming to
the Hird family will pay the ex-
penses Of the sons sickness, and
leave some for the aged parents.
This Thought was without doubt
comforting to Joe. whose brain was
active to the end.

After the marriage ceremony and

of bounteous wedding supper which
had been prepared by the mother and

but they had counted without reckon
ing on the bad roads and the big red
car was soon stuck in the mud. It
was stuck firm and fast and it seemed
as if the beautiful gowns of the bride
and bridesmaid were to suffer. but
finally the party was rescued by team
and arrived at the church an hour and
a half late.
1t speaks volumes for the sweet
tempered groom that he came in look
ing as happy as could be and the
bride smiled as serenely as if Boyer
valley mud did not exist.
The ceremony was pretty one.
The charming bride was beautifully
gowned in white, princess style and
wore a veil and carried shower
bouquet of white roses. Miss Mollie
Foley. of Clinton. acted as brides
maid and Mr. j.. F. Denahy. of
Sioux City, as best man. After the
ceremony delicious wedding break
fast was served at the home of Mr.
and Mrs. Joseph Hederman and then
the happy young people left for a
brief honeymoon journey via Omaha
to Kansas City and Chicago
Mr.. Duffy. the groom is in the
hardware business at Vail and has
proven himself to be young business
man of ability. energy and integrity.
He has wide circle of friends who
congratulate him upon the delightful
bride he has won.
The bride is one of the brightest.
most lovable and most capable of
Crawford county girls. For a num-
ber Of years she was the one who
made bright and happy home for
her aged parents and in this she
showed herself to be faithful. true
and loving After their death she
made her own way as stenographer
