Big ORCHESTRA COMING
ST. Louis Organization Will Fill Re.
turn Engagement.

Dean Horace Whitehouse of the de-
partment of music of Washburn col
lege announces that he is going to try
the ST. Louis orchestra again. "A
great many people did not hear the
orchestra last time for several rea-
sons and 1 am going to give them an
other chance" he says.
Dean Whitehouse is an energetic
young musician recently from Boston.
who has taken upon himself to do
what many accomplished mon and
women have tried to do and failed
to tempt Topeka people to an appre-
citation of classic music. When the
plans for the last appearance of this
orchestra were about to fall through
Mr.. Whitehouse saved it. 1t is doubt
full whether he felt repaid the night of
the performance. Even the announce
ment of the famous conductor, Max
Zach, lost its power here. There was
but a handful-or, maybe, two hands
ful-of listeners scattered broadcast
throughout the Auditorium. which left
the famous conductor and his marvel
Gus musicians to look upon a vast ex-
panse Of empty chairs. That great
company of talent and technique. new
ertheless, played their whole show
through, and superbly, but it was quite
apparent that individually the players
looked out into the room with a hurt
expression. Dean Whitehouse himself
performed on the great pipe organ and
WOn WARM appreciation anu Applause
from his audience. Max Zach and he
parted with a hearty handshake and a
short conversation. That conversation
was half thought to be mutual con-
ISOLATION on having to perform before
so select a crowd.
But perhaps not. The orchestra
management will consider another en-
gagement. Many of Topeka's music
lovers have petitioned for another
concert, and the dean will try it again.
The St. Louis orchestra is one of the
really great musical organizations of
symphony orchestras. Maybe the peo-
pie did not know that before; maybe
they did and just did not care. At
any rate, Dean Whitehouse is an or
ganist of unusual ability and u man of
splendid courage.

The busiest portion of the city as far
as building is concerned is that SPOT
which takes in the new Mills building
in course of construction and the sites
wherein the G. A. r. memorial and
new Santa Fe office buildings are to go
up. AS soon as the weather again
moderates things will be IN readiness
for work to start in connection with
the putting in of the concrete founda-
lions for the latter. and the excavating
for the memorial building is being
pushed ahead rapidly.
The steel frame of the new Mills
building at Ninth and Kansas avenue is
going up almost as If by magic, at least
in comparison to the speed Of construc-
ton work as it is generally seen in To-
peka. This building which will be
seven stories high above the basement
is being built along true skyscraper
lines.
The structure will be as nearly fire
proof as it is possible to make a build
ing. The floors will be of concrete
throughout the structure and the walls
between the steel girders will be of the
same material The outside material
to be used is brick and terra Gotta.
The ground space which the building
will cover is 150x100 feet. 1t will be
equipped with every modern comfort

First Methodist Church Packed to
Hear Him.

Last night the First NJ. E. church
was packed to the doors, Bishop Will
lam A. Quayle who presented his
:.lasterful address. Hall Game and His
Island being the attraction. AS the
big audience filed out of the church
praise heard on every hand and they
were given in no uncertain manner.
In speaking of the novelist Bishop
Quayle pronounced Hall Game to be
the most sincere friend of the liberty
ter.
He described in a graphic manner
the little Isle of Man. the home of the
Manx people. During the course of his
address Bishop Quayle brought forth
some gems of thought which are well
worthy of remembrance.

the operation of the big steel boom"
which swings the heavy girders into

there are interested onlookers on the

The real estate market in the course
of few weeks will be running full
blast. The inquiries for vacant lots are
coming in thick and fast at the present
time and it looks as though there is not
likely to be any let up in the building
of residences in Topeka. There are
many persons who intend to build
homes during the coming season as a
matter of mere speculation. while there
are scores of others who are planning
new homes of their own.
A big advance in lots is looked for
after the market fairly opens and it
seems that now is the time to buy as ii
doesn't look as though there is any
possible chance for prices to remain
stationary. During the past three years
there is hardly a section in the city in
which property has not almost doubled
in value.

ONE YEAR AGO IT
SHOWED IN Ell PASO
There Was Ice, Too, and
Shivering People Where
Now Is Sunshine.

At 10 o'clock Tuesday morning the
United States weather bureaus thermo-
meter registered 4S degrees fahrenheit
Not altogether wonderful thing for II
Paso, but hsteni One year ago that
same Thermometer registered % degrees
brrr h-shiver my timbers, but it was
cold. That was at $3.50 a. m one year
ago. The coolest this blessed day was
$50 degrees at a m.
This year all are basking in the sun
shine here and there are but few stoves
working over time. One year ago
everybody was cold. A blizzard swept
through Kansas, rain and snow fell
through New Mexico and parts of Texas
and FL Paso was in the throes OF a cold
wave There was ice, real ice gathered
around front yard standpipes and in
little buckets that had been left out
over night while the milkman who called
before sun up heard complaints that the
cream was frosted when it was taken in
for breakfast, but that was a year ago.
Trains running into FL PasO on this
day year ago were delayed by snow
storms and heavy rains which caused
washouts but it is oh, so different to-
day, everybody is out without his over
coat, the birds are singing in the plaza
and the public of Fl Paso is laughing at
the coal dealer with fiendish glee, as he
laughed while the shekels rolled into his
Golfers on this day one year ago.

ANTARCTIC EXPEDITION
A PRODUCT OF THE SOUTH.

Cotton has always been one of the
main resources of the South. In for
mer days, only the cotton lint was
preserved; the seed was thrown away
as worthless. In recent years, however,
this once waste product has been de-
veloped until now cotton oil adds mil
lions yearly TO the wealth of the South.
! Foremost in perfecting methods of
sehning the oil have been The n. K.
Fairbank Company. In the manufacture
of Cottolene they have changed cotton
oil into cooking fat as wholesome as
olive oil, yet so pure and neutral that
it is preferable to butter in making fine
cake and pastry.
