Luther College Musical Union VIII
Give Fine Program April list.

We expected to be able today to
publish the program for the annual
concert of the Luther College Music
al Union, which will be rendered at
the Grand opera house on FRIDAY
evening, April LIST. A special feat
ure of this concert is the fact that
each number Of the program is new
and has never been heard in De-
corah. Among them will be "Pas
de Fluer," an intermezzo from L.
Delibes ballet "Niola" arranged by
Theo. Moses Tobani; a grand Sc
lection from "Herodias," written by
the French opera composer, J.. Mas
senet; the overture to Ameber's
opera Fra Diavolo." Also a Sc
lection Creme de la Creme and
a grand closing finale selection. a
realistic tone picture, THE Civil
War;" with a delineation in music
of battle, etc. 1t will be alto
gether a splendid program, and
promises to afford one of the best
musical entertainments ever heard
in DEBORAH.

= Getting Ready 10 Build.

Messrs. Cox & Price of the De-
corah Granite Works have a force
of several men at work tearing
down the old buildings on the cor
ner of Washington street and
Broadway, preparatory to the con-
struction of a fine modern marble
works plant. The plans for this
new establishment were described
in detail in these columns a few
months ago, and will not be re
peated at this time, save to state
that it will be a modern, up-to-date
plant in every way, built of brick
of ample capacity, and equipped
with every facility for the rapid
handling of monuments. Work viii
not be started on the new building
for perhaps a month yet, until the
spring rush is over, but they expect
to push it forward as speedily as
possible, and complete it this sum
mer.

WON FAST GAME.
Valdez College Basket Ball Team
Defeats Oliver College to the
Tune of As to % i'm
Whirlwind Game.

Last Thursday night at Steyer's
opera house one of the fastest and
best basket ball games of the sea-
son was played between the Valdez
College of this city, and the Oliver
College of New Hampton. The
Oliver boys were all husky, ag-
gressive fellows who knew the game
pretty we'll, and were undoubtedly
sure of winning, as they had de-
feated Valdez on their home floor
this season. But when the game
started you could see their hopes go
glimmering, because the Valdez
boys from the start of the whistle
played them completely off their
feet, making them realize that they
were up against a basket ball team
that could deliver the goods. The
game was exceedingly rough
throughout, both sides contributing
their share of it.
The score of As to % showed
pretty we'll the relative merits of
the teams; the Oliver boys were
clearly outclassed in every depart
ment of the game, for try as they
might they couldn't beat the Val
der boys to any trick of the game.
The second half showed plainly
that the Oliver boys were mad,
(well, they had reason to be, &C
cording to the beating they were
getting) and they decided to mus
ter up all the strength there was in
them, but before the half was over
they must have felt like they had
been struck by the tail end of
Haley's comet, as the Valdez team
opened up their batteries and pour
ed an awful broadside into them.
The game was cracker-jack and
much enjoyed by the large audience
present Ralph Oliver was at the
head of his team and showed excel
lent ability.
The Valdez team this year was
one of the best this popular school
ever had, and was composed of the
following players: Leroy Werges,
Mgr, E. Wepler, l.. Wepler, (both
star players) l.. Johnson, Ed.
Schrubbe and Spencer Harrington,
sub. They are all strong, excellent
players, and conducted themselves
throughout all the games in a most
exemplary maner. Manager Werges
is to be congratulated on the sue
cess his team acquired during the
season, having won eight games out
of eleven played. Following are
the games won and lost.

70 WITNESSES FOR BROWNE.
Defense Will Try to lmpeach Testi-

Chicago, III. - In a vigorous at
tempt to break down, if possible, the
case of the state, which is completed

defense will next week place 70 wit
nesses on the stand in the trial of Lee
O'Neil Browne, legislative minority
leader, charged with buying votes for
the election of William Lorimer to the
United States senate.
Brownies lawyers will use this large
number of witnesses in efforts to i'm
peach the testimony of Representatives
Charles A. Write, H. J. c.. Beckemeyer
and Michael S. Link, each of whom
said on the witness stand that he had
received $1,000 or more after voting
for Senator Lorimer.
When court opens Monday morning,
the first step of the defense will be to
advance technical arguments in an at
tempt to have the case taken from the
jury and have a verdict of not guilty
entered by Judge McSurely.
Browne may take the witness stand

BROOKINS GETS RECORD
ASCENpS IN BlPLANE 4,5o3 FEET
AT INDIANAPOLIS.
Motor Stops and He GIides Smoothly
Two Miles Into Wheat
Field.

Indianapolis, Indiana. Walter
Brookins, in a Wright biplane, broke
the worlds %aeroplane record for alti.
tude here when he scared to a height
of 4,503 feet, according to the meas
urement of the altimeter. His motor
stopped as he was descending and he
made a glide of two miles, landing
easily in a wheat field.
Brookins started at the speedway at
$50 p. m. and, flying in wide circles,
reached his highest altitude 40 minutes
later. The machine was then but a
speck in the sky, at moments lost to
the view of the crowd below.
The biplane seemed to pause for sew
eral minutes and then it began a slow
descent, sweeping five miles east of
the speedway in its downward course.
Drawing in his circle to a point
three miles nearer to his starting place,
Brookins found himself hundreds of
feet from the earth and flying over
woods, meadows and creeks strange to
him. Because of the falling darkness,
he could not see the automobile track
from which he had risen.
At this stage the motor clogged and
stopped and Brookins' only chance was
to hold his steering planes true and
glide to earth. For two miles he flid
down through the air in the general
direction of the speedway and when
it's stone wall doomed white before him
he knew that he could not cover it.
Slipping over the tops of trees he
came luckily upon a wheat field and
dropped lightly to the ground.
Brookins landed at s o'clock. The
previous altitude record was 4,3S4k
feet, which he had set at the speedway
last Monday.

NATION GREETS THEODORE
ROOSEVELT ON HIS RETURN
Monster Reception for the Former President at
New York---Spectacular Parades On Wa
ter and Land---Mayor Gaynor We'll
comes the Traveller.

So 1t went all the way up to Twen-
ty-third street, where the parade
turned and made it's way back to the
Battery. At that historic spot at the
lower end of Manhattan island Col
onel Roosevelt landed to receive the
formal welcome home.
Welcomed by Mayor Gaynor.
In an enclosure in the center of Bat
terry park were 200 distinguished
guests, including senators, represent
atiyes, ambassadors and close per-
sunal friends of Mr.. Roosevelt. Sur
rounding this enclosure was another
reserved space which was occupied by
about $500 prominent men and mem
bers Of the big reception committee.
The cheering and music were al
most continuous as the colonel en-
tered the park, but finally quiet was
restored and Mayor Gaynor stepped
forward and delivered a cordial ad-
dress of welcome on behalf of the ma
ton and the city. Mr.. Roosevelt re-
sponded briefly but feelingly, and
short speeches were made by several
other prominent men. Much as he
would have liked to be present to
greet his predecessor, President Taft

New York.-No such welcome was
ever before given an American citizen
as that which was accorded Theodore
Roosevelt when he returned to the
land of his birth on June IS. In ac-
cordance with his request, the greet
ing was wholly free from craftsmanship,
and indeed his injunction was scarcely
needed, for 1t seemed the entire ma
ton was eager to welcome home the
former president.
Since emerging from the African
Jungle the latter part OF March, Mr..
Roosevelt has been the guest of e IA
ly every European ruler and almost
unprecedented honors have been
heaped on him. The reception by
his fellow citizens was a fitting eli.
max to his triumphal tour and must
have been the most satisfactory event
connected with 1t.
