rowing husband and little son,
who besides the many friends are
left to mourn her death.
Mrs. HOrnbeck had been suffer.
ing for some time with a tumOr
and weakened heart, and it was
finally found that an operation
would be necessary. A week ago
last Tuesday she was taken to
the hospital to remain until con-
sidered able to undergo an opera
ton. No operation had been at
tempted yet, and she was thought
to be improving in health when
her sudden death occurred.
She was a. woman who had a
large circle of friends and who
was loved and admired by those
who knew her. A faithful and
loving wife whose chief care was
for her home and loved ones, the
death is indeed a sad one. The
husband has been nearly heart
broken since it was found that her
health had been so impaired and
the home has been a sad one for
him since her departure.
She was a member of the Pres
byterian church and always took
an interest in its affairs. Besides
her husband and little son, she
leaves a sister, who lives in the
state of Washington to mourn her
loss. She was about forty years
of age.

The Music Club of Great Bend.

The citizens of Great Bend
may well be proud of the effort
of their Music Club, as public
spirited, educational feature of
the towns development. We are
growing commercially, in civic
pride, in every way, and our
growth in appreciation Of beauti-
full music should correspond with
this.
The Music Club has two objects
IN view-One, to further the audi
tOrlum movement, and so furnish
a place r such entertainments
as The Fritz Huffman Co., and
the other to establish a sinking
fund so as to be able to bring
such companies here at popular
prices within the reach of all, ma
ing special concessions in favor
Of young musical students.
Whether or not they can do
these things is for the citizens of
Great Bend to decide. If they
wish their sons and daughters to
grow up intelligent musicians,
they must certainly hear good
music. If the club meets with
the encouragement they conf
IDENTIFY expect at the hands of
tho public, they will from time
to time bring the very best tai
ent here.
