A Successful Concert.

lHe concert by nome talent un-
der the direction of Mrs. Blanche
M. Tice of Sioux City, was given
in the opera house Monday even
ing. Two circumstances conspir-
ed to reduce the size of the audi
ence-the weather was oppressive
ly hot, and just as the crowd was
assembling the report came that a
man had been drowned in the res
ervoir, and many who would other
wise have attended rushed to the
scene of the accident. AS it was
the hall was fairly we'll filled, the
receipts at the door being over $45.
Mrs. Tice, who was formerly
Miss Blanche Mahaney, spent her
childhood in Scotland. Since leav-
ing here she has gained a consid-
cradle notoriety, both as a singer
and as a musical composer, and
her old friends were delighted to
have an opportunity to hear her.
In the selection of assistants
Mrs. Tice brought together an ar
ray of musical talent that few towns
the size of Scotland could surpass.
AS accompanies on the piano,
Miss Wittmayer, a graduate from
Yankton Conservatory, followed by
two years of training at Oberlin,
and Miss Bertha Schmierer, who
has had three years at Oberlin,
were much appreciated. Miss Ber-
tina Baisch. who is a student at
the Yankton Conservatory, gave q
piano solo in a most skillful man.
ner. Miss Hattie Johnston, who
has been taking special training at
Mitchell in voice culture and elocu-
ton, gave two readings in the rem
dltion of which she showed much
skill. Miss Eugenia Parmenter,
who has had special training in
voice culture both at Mitchell and
at Seattle, Wash, gave a vocal So
10 we'll suited to her voice which
was in excellent condition. A duet
by Mrs. Freeman and Rev. Chas.
Wilcox brought a hearty encore to
which each responded with a solo.
Dream Face" the song composed
by Mrs. Tice, was nicely rendered
by the author, assisted by Mrs.
Freeman and Messrs. Carl Max
and Rev. Wilcox. A sextette, com
posed of Mesdames Tice, freeman
and Marchant and Misses Witt
mayer, Johnston and Bardell, gave
two numbers. In both the voices
harmonized nicely and both were
heartily encored. A duet by Miss
es Wittmayer and Haynes was also
much appreciated by the audience.
Three selections were given by
Mrs. Tice and the hearty applause
which she received showed that the
qualities of voice which have brot
her distinction in other places were
appreciated at her old home.

mu.,,...d stamps Now worthless.

Until quite recently postage
stamp that was half with the
letter writer was good enough to
take the missive on through the
mails, but such stamps are not
good any more.
Under an order recently passed
by the Postofice Department a
stamp that is mutilated in the
slightest degree is worthless, and
this is a fact that should be re-
membered by everybody.
By the terms of the new order,
if corner be torn off, no matter
how small, or the stamp be mu-
tilated in any way, it can not be
used. All letters bearing such
stamps will be held at the post
office two weeks for recovery,
and at the end of that time, if
not claimed, will be sent to the
dead letter Office.
Another phase Of the order is
also interesting. Permission is
given individuals to perforate
the stamp they use with a rea-
sonably small instrument for
identification purposes. Such a
step is intended to prevent the
sending of anonymous letters or
the theft or mutilation of pri-
vate mail of any nature. Gulf

IN MEM ORlAM.

Amid the peals of merriment
and ripping laughter, as we
were about to celebrate the
Nineteen Hundred and Eighth
anniversary of the birth of our
Savior, we were suddenly inter-
rupted to view the opposite
phase of this daily routine of ex-
|istence.
1t was only Sunday, December
the twentieth that our well
known citizen Hon. John T. Sen
ter gave up his duties on earth
and passed to the world eternal.
Mr.. Senter leaves to grieve
and lament their loss a devoted
wife, six children and a host Of
faithful friends and ardent ad-
mirers. To them the transactions
of cruel fate are incomprehensi-
bic, and the why's and where
fores OF this old life are inexplici-
bic, but we must accept in way
|of decree that which is done
through Gods will and ever
trust in his omniscient grace and
omnipotent power to provide that
which is best adapted for our
welfare and in harmony with
His preordained viii.
Mr.. Senter no doubt had his
characteristic faults, as we our
selves. Still when we attempt
to sum up the defects in others,
let us remember what our Christ
said to the multitude on the
Mount when they insisted in
stoning to death the sinful wo-
men. Let him who is without
sin cast the first stone. {"
Many admit and few deny that
Mr.. Senter was endowed with
an exceptionally brilliant intel
|lect; SO, when we justly consider

On Sunday morning, Decem-
Der GOTH, the telegraph wires
flashed the sad tidings that
brave. generous John T. Senter
was dead. He had been in failing
health for some time and went
to Birmingham, Ala. for consul
tation; Saturday night he was
taken quite i'll ard was removed
to the hospital early Sunday
morning where he expired about
$50. His remains were brought
to his home and loved ones at
Columbus, and on Tuesday morn
ing, December p. loving hands
tenderly laid to rest all that was
mortal of this generous soul.
Brother Senter was a man
whom to know was to admire,
in great many respects; the
writer served with him in sever
al capacities having been asso-
ciated with him in the newspa-
per business and first learned to
admire him for the fearlessness
and the courage of his conyic-
tions; then as a member of the
Legislature he was again asso-
ciated with him and during a
peri1d of nearly ten years was
intimately associated with him
in the work of the Order Knights
of Pythias. Brother Senter re-
ceived the first Grand Lodge
recognition in 1900 and later in
1905 he was elected Grand
Chancellor and served during
that year closing very splendid
administrative year when the
Grand Lodge met in May, 1906,
in Jackson. Brother Senter was
a member of the Order Knights
of Pythias, the Odd Fellows and
the Masons, all of whom partici-
pated in the last sad rites He
leaves a widow, four girls and
two sons to mourn his loss.
1t has been said that ''the evil
men do lives after them, the
good is often inferred with their
bones" This in our day of civ
ilization and refinement; in our
day when the better element
prevails, in fact in this, the best
day of the worlds history, such
a doctrine does not prevail for
the reason that it should not
prevail. Today we should say
''the good that men do lives after
them let the evil be inferred with
their bones," so we should say
of Brother Senter. The writer
would not say that he was with
out faults, yes, he was human
and being human he was frail,
but the good in his character so
over balanced that which was
faulty that we like to remember
him for his good qualities and
forget those things that showed
his weakness. Loving to his
family and as an evidence of his
nobility of character he was idol
lied by them as a friend, and his
friends were indeed close to him;
intelligent as a law maker, and
his constituents never had al
more jealous advocate; courage
|ous as man. and no man was
ever truer to his convictions,
and this all being undeniable
true; so the life of such a man
cannot fail to leave its impress
lc' good in the community and
state in which he lived, and
