MISS BRINKMAN BETTER

The appearance Friday evening of
Brinkman, pianist, in concert at the
Unitarian church was the most impor-
tant musical event Of the season in
Keokuk. The audience which greeted
the performers was fully representa-
tive of the musicians and the music
loving people of the city, and was en-
thusiastic in its appreciation of the
splendid program given by the two ar
lists. Not since Herbert Witherspoon
sang here several years ago has this
city heard a baritone of the rank of
Mr.. Towns, nor one whose singing
was SO thoroughly enjoyed. All of his
songs were received with genuine
pleasure and with several numbers
he thrilled his hearers to an unusual
degree Throughout. his work justified
the high position he holds among
American concert singers. Keokuk
people who have heard Florence
Brinkman in former public appear
ances were delighted Friday evening
to note that another season of hard
work has given her increased mastery
of the piano, and has broadened and
strengthened the artstia perreption
which always has made her playing
remarkable. In the thoroughress OF
her technical equipment. and The ex-
IRENE brilliancy of her interpretations
Miss Brinkman possesses the prime
requisites of the SUI ,ccssf'll concert
player; and in this field she already
is attaining distinction.
Mr.. Towns voice is rich bari
tone of splendid quality and abundant
range. At whatever pitch or with

UNI durch die Daemmerung" was pre-
eminent among the more subdued Of
ferings. Continued applause followed
each group, and in response Mr..
Towns graciously rendered encores
which were among the most pleasing
numbers of the evening. The PRO
logue' from "Pagliacci" magnifcantly
done, came after the final group and
was particularly enjoyed.
Miss Brinkman played two well bal
anced groups, the first including two
Rhapsodys by Dohnanyi and Paul
Stoye's wonderful ''Bravour Waltz, >
while the second comprised three
standard List compositions Stoye's
waltz easily was the most spectacular

Jeffersonville, Ind, on the Ohio
river. During the entire construc-
ton Of the boat Capt. Streckfus KEEP,
the public guessing as to what would
be its name. So intense did interest
become in the matter that the owner
was offered munificent sums II he
would reveal the name to certain par
ties. But no amount of money could
influence him and not until the gov
eminent inspectors had measured up
the new craft preparatory to issuing
a license, was the name ~ S. reveal
ed. Two hours after the name hao
been put on. the boat steamed down
the Ohio river to Cairo and into the
Mississippi. 1t was by far the finest
and most magnificent excursion boat
that had ever entered the Father of
Waters. Proudly it steamed up the
Mississippi and landing in Dayen-
port and Rock Island was greeted by
brass bands and the firing of cannon.
Its destruction by fire rs miles below
La Crosse, Wis, year ago this
month, is still fresh in the memory Gi
The public.
Buys Diamond 10 Line.
Capt Streckfus was not dishearten-
ed by the loss of the y. S." He
placed the comfortable steamer wv.
W. in the excursion business and at
once started plans looking to building
of new boat to replace the ~. S."
He learned that such boat as he de-
sired could not be built in less than
two years. He then resolved on other
plans.
1t was the dream of every ambi-
tionus riverman to some day be the
successor of Diamond Jo'' Reynolds
in the ownership of the line Of boats
which bears his name. Capt. Streck-
fus realized this dream during the
past year when he purchased the en-
tire Diamond Jo' fleet, including the
steamers ST. Paul, Dubuque, Quincy
and Sidney, and all the warehouses
and wharf boats extending from st.
| Louis to st. Paul. The magnitude
of the transaction may be inferred
from the fact that 1t would require
/ $150,000 to duplicate the construc-
ton Of one of these boats today.
On Sept Is st. Louis-New Or
leans service will be inaugurated
Introduces Innovations.
Capt. Streckfus was the father OF
numerous innovations on the Missis
sippi steamboats,. The first caliope
was placed on the CITY of Winona,
owned by him. On the Verne Swain
he installed the first system OF mean
descent and arc lights whose current
was generated from one dynamo
The first soda water fountain, the
first telephone system and the first
running water on steamboats,, were
coincident to the building of the
| -. 81.
Forty years ago the name of "Dia
mond 10" Reynolds and the diamond
10 line of boats was almost synono
nous with navigation on the Upper
Mississippi. SO today the name Capt
John Streckfus and the Streckfus
line of boats stand as their worth,
successor.
A king Of the Mississippi died il
Diamond 10" Reynolds. The kins
of the Mississippi lives in Capt. Johr
Strecl1fus. Long live the king!

= WILL HAVE A STEAMBOAT

9IT WILL HAVE A STEAMBOAT |
OF MY OWN SOME DAY!"
Such was the retort Of a bare
foot boy of six years when thrasheG
by his father for stealing ride on a
packet some fifty odd years ago,
The half-threat, the half-boast, has
more than been realized. The bare
foot boy was Johnny" Streckfus,
now known from Lake Itasca., the
source of the Mississippi, to the Gull
of Mexico, its outlet, as Captain Johl
Streckfus.
Capt. Streckfus Is today the most
| notable figure on the Mississippi ano
its tributaries. In acquiring ownel
ship of the Diamond 10 line, the mosi
colossal fleet Of boats on the river
and the only through line from st
Louis to st. Paul, he occupies an
unique position in fresh water naviga-
ton.
Instinct For River.
Capt. Streckfus was evidently born
with an instinct for the river, al
though his early environment did not
tend in that direction. His birth
place was not even within sight of the
river, being fully three miles away.
His father was In the habit of cutting
cordwood and selling it to the boats
as they passed up and down the
stream. Wood was then the chieT
! fuel for steamboats,. The only oppor-
family Johnny" had of seeing the
river was when he rode on top of
load of wood with his father to meet
steamer.
On one Of these occasions the lad
concealed himself on board packet
loaded with wheat and other mer-
chandise. Crouching among the sacks
of grain, he remained concealed until
the boat cast away from its moorings.
Then his youthful dream, a ride On
the Mississippi, had come true. But
the dream had sorrowful awaken
ing. In the meantime, his father
noticed that Johnny had disappeared.
Suspecting that he had gone aboard
the boat, he whipped up his team
and drove to the next landing. The
father boarded the boat and dragged
Johnny from his place of conceal
ment. To this very day Capt. Streck-
fus winces as he tells of the licking
that was his punishment.
The "Boy Wonder"
From that time on it kept his par
ents busy keeping watchful eye on
him, lest he run away to the river
and board one of the boats. When 10
years old, Johnnys heart was glad
dened by the decision of his parents
to forsake the farm and move TO
Rock Island. Here he could see the
river and watch the boats every day
Once again his natural inclination
for the water was manifested by the
ease with which he was able to dis
tinguish every boat on the river by
it's whistle. His knowledge of the
river and boats while yet mere
lad in his teens was SO phenomenal
that he gained the sobriquet OF The
Boy Wonder" among rivermen. He
knew the location of every sand-bar
every twist of the channel, the names
of all the boats, their owners and
captains. In fact he was human

to the river
His father, insisting that he should
follow a land occupation, the lad
found his first employment in flour
mill and until 25 years ago was mil.
Ter. Then fate served as an accom-
plice to his natural inclination for
the water, as the close confinement
of the mill proved injurious to his
health Almost a physical wreck,
upon the advice Of his physician, he
sought the open air, and soon regain
ed his health.
Buys First Steamboat.
His first venture in steamboating
was the Verne Swain, of which he was
both master and engineer. The boat
piled daily in the packet business
between Davenport and Clinton. 1t
was one of the fastest boats on the
tested with the steamer 10 Long for
supremacy in this direction.
| Fifteen years ago Capt Streckfus
purchased the City of Winona and
entered it in the Davenport Clinton
packet trade with the Verne Swain
In 1895 he bought the little steamer
Freddie" built at Kahlke's boat
yards in Rock Island, and started q
daily packet service between Daven
port, Rock Island, Buffalo and Anda
lusia. Two years later he sold the
