on the Fargo college campus. Here
work In this narrow way was contin-
ued for a few years with few students.
In 1899 Prof Ira B. Penniman came
to the institution and the work was
given it's first notable impetus in ex-
pansion. Theoretical study was intro
duced although in a small way and
advancement was masle from simple
music teaching to conservatory in
struction. Prior to this time the insti-
tuition had moved to Jones halr where
it remained untE 1901 when IT moved
into the business section OF the city,
occupying it's present quarters in the
Stone block on First avenue nortn..
Era of Great Development.
y In the fall OF 1905, Prof. Wallace w.
George assumed the dictatorship of
) the conservatory and since then the
sinstitution has seen its greatest era
of expansion.
When Professor George assumed
charge the conservatory occupied a
few rooms in the northeast corner of
the Stone book. The equipment was
comparatively small and teachers were
few. The school began to be recognized
dis a VITAL IpLC0 III Lie iAuSACGl WONhu
and students began TO pour In from
all parts Of the northwest and constant
expansion has been necessary.
In the past four years 1t mas devel-
oped ten fold. The curriculum has
expanded until the school is now
teaching all Of the subjects in as full
a form as is to be found in the coun-
try's largest musical schools.
# The Equipnrent Used. IN
The equipment used In the training
of the conservatory is most complete
and all facilities are exceptionally fine,
The building used Is constructed on
plans which are admirably fitted for
the work in hand. There are large
number of studios, reception rooms
and practice rooms. Two large recital
halls are provided, the largest with
a seating capacity OF roo people II is
in these halls that the faculty and
stm0ents give their recitals which have
becwme notable affairs in the city.
These recitals not only attract the
students and their frtsnds but seats

/ teachers are required to persue those
theoretical subjects which are neces-
sarg to their particular class.
III a person were studying mathe-
matics alone he would become a
narrow man." said Professor George
/ in speaking OF the necessity for teach
| ing more than music alone. I'm fact
he would be compelled to study other
branches in order to persue mis- chosen
1 course. II is the same in music and
students are required to take the
/ theoretical work to broaden them out
as musicians"
1t is In this respect that a conserva-
tory course is far superior to private
training. 1t also has the added ad-
vantage of inspiring a rivalry among
the students, by bringing them to-
gether In recitals.
They are also given the opportunity
of hearing the best musicians in this
and Euroean countries. Each year
the management of the conservator
engages a number of noted musicians
to give concerts at the conservatory
and great benefit is to be derived la
| this way.

Two General Courses.
The work of study in these branches
is arranged into two prime courses

course but gives training in such a
manner that the pupil can secure a
general knowledge of music and lay
the foundation for more advanced
study.

student in the New England con-
servatory from 1895 to 1898. From
1898 to 1900 he studied voice with
Signor Rotoli and VIM. Whitney and
theoretical studies and composition

ent in the art. About $1,000 is given
annually in this way.
A Teachers Bureau.
Three years ago the institution es-
tablished as part of its work a teach
er's bureau. In this way it mas done
much toward furnishing names and
references of competent teachers or
supervisors OF public school music
drawing, piano, voice, violin and other
musical subjects.
i All over the country there is great
demand forfmusic teachers In the pub
lie schools. To fit students%~to fill
these positions. the conservatory has
made special feature of this de-
partment of work and it is proving
very popular.
Another course which Isl proving an
advantage, is that of, piano tuning.
There is great demand for piano
tuners of ability and thetcourse of one
year at the conservatory turns out
number of skilled piano tuners an
nually.
The Conservatory Faculty.
AS has been said before the faculty
of the conservatory is composed of
teachers equal to the best in the
country. At first glance it will seem
that the corps is rather small but when
it is taken into consideration that
every teacher is on a salary the force
will be seen to be large.
Most of the @conservatories take
teachers on the commission plan and
they may teach lin several institutions
at the same time. Those with the
Fargo college conservatory devote all
their time to work in the Institution.
1t is to this corps of teachers under
the ef1ictent directarshipof Prof. w. w.
George that vast credit must he given
for the phenomenal success which at
tended 1t and the proficiency which II
has reached. 9
Professor George spent ten years In
voice training under the masters Of the
art He has also had large practical
experience in oratorio, concert and
opera work and has. taught In some Of
the principal schools Of the country,
From 1889 to 1898 he was q private

PAINT EVERY YEAR.
No One Wants to Do It, But Some
Paint Will Wear No Longer.

When you have a Job of painting
done you don't expect to have it done
over again very soon. But to make
lasting job, several things must be
taken into consideration-the proper
time to paint-the condition of the sur.
face-the kind of materials to use. etc.
All these matters are fully covered IN
the specifications which can be had free
by writing National Lead Company
1902 Trinity Building, New York
and asking for Houseowner's Paint
ing Outfit No. 40. The outfit also in.
cludes a book of color schemes for
both interior and exterior painting,
and simple instrument for detecting
adulteration in the paint materials.
The outfit will solve many painting.
problems for every houseowner.
Meantime while buying paint see that
every white lead key bears the famous
Dutch Boy Painter trademark, which
is an absolute guarantee of purity and
quality. If your paint dealer cannot
supply you National Lead Company
will see that some one else will.

JURY CONVICTS SIX OF
"BUCKET SHOP" FRAUDS
Immunity in Business Which
Melted Millions.

Cincinnati, May 1.-THE jury in the
case of Louis w. Foster and five 9TH
ers who were charged with using the
mails to defraud in the running of a
so-called bucket shop" returned a
verdict of guilty in the United States
district court here yesterday.
The men found guilty are: Louis
w. Foster, John German, w. J. Camp
bell A. C. Baldwin, John M. Scott
and Edwin F. He'll.
The defendants were found guilty
on the charge of using the United
States mails to further a scheme to
defraud. The penalty is fine of from
81 1000 to $4,000, 10 months in the pen
itentiary, or both.
Judge Miller Outcalt, attorney for
the defense, gave notice that he would
file motion for new trial. In the
meantime the defendants are given
their liberty under bond.
William J. O'Dell, who died here
several years ago, left an estate esti-
mated at 100000. He amassed this
fortune by running a bucket shop on
larger scale than ever before known
in this country, having branches in
all the principal cities and towns in
the west and south. At his death the
defendants found guilty continued the
O'Dell Brokerage Company. Defend
ants German, Baldwin, Scott and He'll
were formerly telegraph operators in
the employ of ODell. William Dud-
ley, telegraph operator, and Attorney
Thomas Shay, both OF whom are dead,
were interested as partners with the
defendants at one time All these
men are credited with clearing up
81 100000, most of which, however,
German and Dudley and Shay re-
tanned.
Foster, the broker, was arrested by
Constable Brown of Magistrate Boian-
inger's court on an embezzlement
charge. Louis G. Widrog, Newport
druggist, was the plaintiff. He
charged that Foster appropriated to
the use Of himself and concern $2,025
which he gave Foster to negotiate a
purchase Of certain stock for him.
Widrig alleged during May, 1908, he
gave Foster $1,025 to bind the negotia-
ton, and later gave him $1,000 to pur
chase the stock These two amounts
Widrig declared were used by Foster
for his own benefit.
Foster denied that he is guilty of
the charge.
