WHAT RALPH M. HIX SAYS
Letter Of Praise For tho Hinshaw

Course.

Course.
The following letter was received by
Mr. H. E. Wilson, secretary Y. M. C.
A. in regard to the Hinshaw company,
which is published with his full con-
sent. The letter is as follows:
My Dear Mr.. Wilson:-It has been
my fortune to know Mr.. William Wade
Hinshaw personally and to accompany
him in song recital, and am very glad
of the opportunity to tell you what /
know of this remarkable artist. In
the first place. the singer is a veritable
giant in stature, and possesses a bass
baritone voice entirely in harmony with
his extraordinary physique. Indeed, so
unusual is the power and range of the
voice that it has become standard
of comparison in many instances; and
in Chicago. where Mr.. Hinshaw lives
and conducts his school, it is not I'M
usual to hear the comment when
some promising young baritone is heard
for the first time, HE gives promise Of
developing, in time, a regular Hin
shaw tone" That is prediction seldom
fulfilled, however, and Mr.. HinshaW
may be said still to hold monopoly,
so far as his voice is concerned. His
wide success as an opera singer. and
particularly as a trainer of singers for
the operate stage, is a matter of COM
mon knowledge and an important
chapter in the musical history of Chi
cago.
Personally ann looking forward with
J the keenest anticipation to hearing the
coming concert, and / have taken the
liberty to write to Mr. Hinshaw, ask
ing him to include in his Marshalltown
program a group of his numbers
that have given me particular pleasure
on former occasions.
With best wishes for a large and ap-
preciative audience on New Years
night, I am
Very truly yours,
RALPH NJ. TiEx.

THIRTEEN BELOW ZERO.
Gold Wave Sends Temperature to Low
est Point Reached This Winter.

est Point Reached This Winter
The cold wave of Tuesday, which
was accompanied by a bitter northwest
wind, drove the temperature down to
1S below zero during the night, max
ing it the lowest mark of the winter
At I o'clock this morning the tempera-
ture was still at 49, and altho the wind
was not SO severe, there was little in
dication that the temperature would
get any above zero during the day.
The highest point reached Tuesday
was 9 above zero, compared with 81
Monday.

The contractors having the con-

cells In their respective positions.
There will be eighty-four cells for
the Incarceration OF law breakers. but
four OF these. however. will be for in

and these cells will be padded so that
In case either of the inmates in this
department become uncomfortable
they will not do damage to themselves.
Eight living rooms for the sheriff
have been provided and the general
arrangements OF the building are such
that NO prisoner can make any dis
turbance or try to break his way
through the heavy corridors without
the sheriff or his assistants hearing
the noise and the attempted escape
can b thWarted without much diffi-
