that Is common to Topeka people in
taking young musicians to their hearts
until they are sure their approval would
be no error in judgment.
The singers in the quartet were:

have all scored q good many successes.
and they gave q program OF interest
and variety at the Grand yesterday. A
quartet from Lucia opened the pro-
gram. and the number. being familiar
to about everyone who takes an interest
in music Of the classical order, was we'll
received. The ensemble work Of the
program was good throughout, though
the solos created the greater interest.
Mr.. LindQu1st was unquestionably
the favorite of the afternoon. He had
q good humored, ingratiattng manner,
and his ornamental qualities supple
mented his vocal attainments. The
women liked him immensely and they
encored him vigorously. His first solo
was an aria from La Boheme. and for
an encore he had a solo from Rigoletto.
His tones were clear, his range wide,
and he met the requirements OF the
Italian composers in the sustained le-
cato phrase.
Mrs Cannon had as her solo an aria
from Don Carlos. a Verdi number. She
sang with enthusiasm and dramatic
feeling, and the number offered some
brilliant technical effects. notably In

The bass had two short solos. a Ger

list. and they were the least approved
by the audience. His German song was
the more pleasing Of the two. but his
difficulty in the enunciation OF the
English rather detracted from the eff

Of voice.
The second part Of the program con-
sisted Of two scenes from Gounod's
operate setting Of Romeo and
Juliet" The soprano, Mrs. Butler, and
the tenor. Mr.. Lindquist, took the parts
in the two fragments, from the balcony
and the marriage scenes. The work
furnished an opportunity for solo work
for Mrs. Butler. and in spite of an APP
good deal of dramatic power combined
with lyric sweetness and an abs
handling Of the climaxes.
Taken as q whole, the program was

JOINED DORMAN

Minot, N. D., Sept. At Is under
stood that Nehemiah Davis denies the
story which has been current for sew
eral days that he and d. C.. Dorman
will join issues for reelection to their
present positions.
1t Is well known fact that since
the election and organization of the
present board of commissioners, Mr..
Davis and Mr.. Dorman have been
found voting together on a great
number of questions in opposition to
the other three members ofsthe board.
me time ago when Mr.. Davis caused
the arrest and prosecution Of Chief OF
Police Smith for driving hoboes out of
the jungles without going through the
forn1ality of swearing out q warrant,
Davis and Dorman were the only two
members of the board who voted to
oust the chief from office. The late
street riot forcibly impressed upon the
minds of the people of MiIiot that 1t
was a poor policy to allow hundreds
of hoboes and loafers to eongregate
in the outskirts Of the city during the
day and night and to block the space
in front Of the postoffice and other
sces on the street during the even
