Carthage, Mo-, April 27.-Miss EN-

the distinction of being the first lady
secretary of a county fair in the
United States, has accepted a position
as secretary CT a big fair that is to be

Miss Knell is practically permitted
to name the amount of her salary, and
her record as secretary of the Knell

that she will be worth a good sum.

REAL ESTATE MAN GONE
s. C. Kersey, 1852 Western Avenue,
Missing From Home.

Where is S. G. Kersey of 1862 West
ern avenue, a real estate man whose
once is at 525 Kansas avenue?
And who is the man who was with
him the last time he was seen?
These questions are being asked by
people in the neighborhood of Grant
vile, where the two men mentioned
were last seen, Saturday afternoon
Since then, it is claimed, nothing has
been heard or seen of them, with the
exception of their stopping for sup
per at Perry and there inQuiring the
way to Lawrence. Mrs. Kersey be-
lieves her husband is in ST. Louis.
Both men were in an automob bile.
The real estate mans companion is
said to be a man named Perkins. He
Is supposed to have been looking at
land. He is described as being tall
and to have worn an overcoat. A
story is told that Kersey telephoned
from John KIeinhans' store at Grant
vile to his wife, saying that he would
not be at home that night. but would
stay all night at a house near Grant
ville- However, Kleinhans says that
although the men were in the store
and telephoned, he was too busy to
pay much attention to them and did
not hear what was said over the
phone.
Another story goes that the men
did not stop at Granville over night.
Mrs. Kersey said today she didn't ex-
peet' that they did. She also admit
ted that Kersey had telephoned to
her from Granville, but refuses to
say whether she has heard from him
since then.
81 think Mr.. Kersey is in ST.
Louis now" said Mrs. Kersey.
why do you ?" WAS asked.
Because I have reasons" she re-
piled, "but that is no ones business
except my own"
sHave you heard from your hus-
band since he left Saturday," asked
the questioner.
IF I hadn't I don't know that it
would be anyone's business. Every
one doesn't write home every day. 1t
is very often that real estate men
will go away for several days on a
trip. There is nothing sensational or
mysterious about this.

the fighter attacked his other work,

CONCERT BIG SUCCESS.
Thousands Visit Auditorium to Hear
Minneapolis Symphony Orchestra.

The Tuesday afternoon and evening
concerts at the Auditorium by the
Minneapolis Symphony Orchestra drew
good audiences, and better yet, pleased
them. The violin soloist, Richard
Czerwonky, was the favorite of the
afternoon performance. He played the
solo parts in Brahms Hungarian
Dances, and for an encore played a
serenade, with harp accompaniment
that completely won his audience. In
the evening he played Gypsy Airs by
Sarasat- and was called back twice.
Arthur Middleton, the bass soloist,
sang from Memberships son and
Stranger" His voice is full and rich
with power. He gave for an encore
the Toreador song, and was recalled to
repeat it. In the afternoon concert
Marietta Bagley, contralto, sang from
Les Huguenots," and David Duggon
rendered a tenor solo. The orchestra
played from the peer Gynt Suite and
the "Andante movement" of Bee
thovens Fifth Symphony" These two
great masterpieces keep their grip on
the public favor, and when they are
rendered as they were Tuesday, the
memory of them fingers. Handlers
Largo was omitted. because there
was no organist present, and Conductor
Oberhoffer objected to giving it with
out the organ.
The symphony for the evening con-
cert was Dvorak's z Minor from 1.-THE
New World" The second movement,
the Largo" in which the heavy wind
instruments are held in reserve for the
splendid climax, was particularly
strong.
Lucille Tewksbury, who sang a So
prano solo from 'Herodiade," has a
rich full voice and her numbers were
given with taste and feeling.
