AN 0PERATIC
PROGRAM
ST. Paul Symphony Orchestra
Concert Charms Willmar
Audience.

The concert by the St. Paul SYM
phony Orchestra last Monday even
ing was the greatest musical treat
heard in Willmar for long time. In
fact, nothing of it's particular kind
has ever been heard here before. Fiji
ty-five artists, with string instru-
ments predominating, under the di-
rection Of Walter Henry Rothwell
and assisted by such eminent SOLO
lists as Nine. Rothwell- Wolff, Mar
Gus Kellerman and George Harris,
with a we'll selected operatic pro-
gram, held the audience enchanted
turnout the evening.
The program began with an Over
ture to "Oberon" by Weber. Then
came the Third Movement from "Pa-
thetic" Symphony by Tschaikowski.
Nine. Rothwell sang the Aria from
'"Tannhauser," "Oh Hall of Song, I
give Thee Greeting" by Wagner, and
as an encore gave Strauss "Zueig-
nung." To the great delight of the
Scandinavian portion of the audience
the "Peer Gynt Suite" by Grieg was
interpreted by the Orchestra in a
mastery manner. The different
movements, ''In the Morning."
"Aase's DEATH" "Anitra's Dance"
and "In thu Hall Of the Mountain
King" were all given very effective
ly and an encore was generously CIV
en- to the applause which followed.
After an intermission Vincent Fam
ELI gave a solo on the harp, Hassel-
mans "Gitana" Caprice. He also
responded to the applause with can
nie Laurie" very charmingly given in
variations. Next came the Trio from
"Faust" by Gounod by the three solo
artists, Nine. Rothwell and Messrs.
Harris and Kellerman. The crowded
condition of the stage gave no room
to the singers and Of course the Co.'S
tunes were lacking, but nevertheless
the rendition was very effective and
the trio responded to the insistent
applause with an encore. The sew
enth number on the program was the
second suite from the most beauti-
full of all operas, "Carmen." The vio-
lin solo in 'Nocturne" was rendered
| by Concert Master Herman Mar
| tonne. In the next number Keller
man sang the Prologue from "Pag-
iacci" by Leoncavallo, which was ont
Of the finest numbers on the pro.
| gram. He responded to an encore
by singing the Toreodor song from
| "Carmen." The concert closed will
a march from "Tannhauser."
The concert at Willmar was give1
under the auspices Of special com
.nittee of ten from the Willmar Com
mercial Club who had guaranteed tn
sum necessary to secure the attrac
ton. The orchestra arrived on .

Penn 6-Centrai L.

With company of about $50 root
ers together with the college band,
the Penn college football team jour
neyed to Pella yesterday afternoon
and beat the Dutch TO the tune of
6 to 0. The idea of every enc of the
large coterie was that they were go
ing to see their team beaten, but that
they would show the Penn spirit and
do what they could to make the team
fight. This was what undoubtedly
won the game for Penn. The team
never before this year has showed
such a fighting spirit as was shown
Yesterday. Every man went into the
game with the intention of showing
what he could do and was in the
game every minute of the time.
The teams were about matched in
weight and speed and it was fight
to the finish. Penn, however, had
little the best of the argument all
through the game. There was no
time that her goal was in immediate
danger although several times when
Central got the ball they would start
down the field with a series of con-
sistent gains that would sweep Penn
off its feet for while. Then a brace
would come and Penn would hold
them for downs with little apparent
effort. The defensive work of the
Penn team has considerably strength
ened since the Leander Clark game,
and her line is almost impregnable,
while to get around the ends is out
of the question. On both the offense
and the defense Capt Pierrel was the
star of the team. His playing was
first class in every way His great
est showing was in his tackling, not
"a man getting around him in the
field. Dodds at quarterback was also
in his best form, running the team
and handling the ball perfectly.
Bogaard was the mainstay of Cen
trails team and was in the game ev-
cry second. Pella says that they will
show the Penn people that they are
game and will come down here on
Thanksgiving day with a larger bunch
of rooters than Penn had there yes
terday, and get even.

GIVES OLD time TALK
Senator Adams Just a Plain Re-
publican Without Isms.

Senator Henry l.. Adams of ALA
makee and Fayette counties, and
resident OF West Union, addressed a
republican meeting Friday evening at
the court house. County Chairman
w. T. Martin called Hon. W. ]. Beans
to preside and the speaker of the
evening was by him introduced.
Mr.. Adams stock in trade is good
old-style, Simon pure republicanism,
and he gave his audience an insight
of men and affairs such as has not
been heard before this season. II
was pleasing address for the old
line republicans and it put stamina
in the backbone of the, shaky ones.
Mr.. Adams did not dodge issues nor
run around the bush. He came out
fiat footed and said what he thought.
The address was not TRADE against
men, it was an argument and an APP
peal to good common sense. Mr.
Adams made a comparison of the rec
ords of the two parties from 1856, the
birth of republicanism, down to the
present time, and pointed out what
had been done by both sides Re
publicanism has nothing to retract.
! 1t stands upon it's record which has
ever been one of advancement. De
mecracy on the other hand has re-
pudiated practically everything it has
stood for and its record is not 10 he
discussed" d..
Tariff issues were discussed and
lni, ne Nl.n
parties analysed. President Taft's
record was shown and the candidate
was lauded for what he had accom-
plished in his administration and be-
fore.
( Mr.. Adams is young man, an able
talker, a deep thinker and he lays
down the gospel in unmistakable
terms. Mr.. Adams was at Sigourney
in Keokuk county, Saturday.
