CANTATA ARTISTICALLY
sung AT The NORMAL

A goodly audience greeted the Nor
NAL School chorus, which was assisted
by four s~oloists and orchestra Of ten
| pieces, last night when the beautiful
and tuneful cantata, The Rose Maid
| en-, by Frederic w. Cowen, was pre-
sented under the able direction of J.
Harold Powers, supervisor Of music
at the state normal school. This pro-
duction was fully up to the standard
Of the musical events given annually
at this institution n last night the
music lovers present heard an ensern-
Bile of young voices, especially So
pranos and altos, which was perfectly
delightful and there were about 800 of
them. The male sections were g. little
weak, but the number Of males in the
school enrolment is not large so than
the director had no alternative. >
The assisting s~oloists were Mrs.
Jessie Hazelton Askegaard, soprano;I
Miss Lillian G. Wright, c~ontralto;
Henry Houglum, tenor; and Frank W
Steele, basso. The personnel of the
orchestra consisted of Miss Bentley
A. J. Stephens. Miss Jean Russell and'

Mrs. Askegaard and another n was
a duet for the soprano and bass,
Mrs. Askegaard and Mr. Steele whose
voices blended charmingly and they
seemed to perfectly understand the
spirit OF the composer. The same
voices with Miss Wright In the trio,

great advantage and it was no wonder
the applause was so enthusiastic. Mr..
Houglum scored a success in his sing
ng Of So Spake the Spring and Alas!
The Hand is Thine.
The singers gave great pleasure in
the singing of the three final numbers:
What Sounds There So Softly? Fare
we'll. Sleep Thou Lightly, and the
finale proper, Yea Fen as Die the
Roses, in which Is @ beautiful solo for
the tenor. Not too much can be said
about the work of the chorus. 1t was
admirably done in every particular and
congratulations are due Mr.. Powers
for his excellent training of the voices
and to the members Of the chorus for
the evident interest they have been
taking in the work of the Tehearsals.

JUDGE AMlpoN SPOKE PLAINLY.
His Remarks at Close of Conspiracy
Case and Defraudinq Indians.

~~S~ ~''Ns
At the close, last Saturday, OF the
conspiracy case, tried before Judge
Amidon in the United States court for
this district Of Minnesota at Fergus
Falls. in which NJ. J. Kolb and J.. r.
Perrault were charged with conspiracy
in the efforts to deprive certain
Indians Of the White Earth reserva-
ton of their lands and after listening
to remarks Of counsel for the gov
eminent and M. J. DAILY for the de-
PENDANTS and after denying the usual
motion for the arrest of Judgment and
to set the verdict aside Judge Amidon
opened his remarks by saying that the
wrong done the government consisted
of the wrong done the Indians.
The government had been defrauded
because the Indians were deprived Of
their property. He had felt, while
the proceedings were progress h a
the trial Of the case was almost a
futile ceremony; that = was locking
the door after all of the horses had
been stolen, and he was very glad to
know that those who had suffered
wrong were 10Y to have r~est1tutlon;
that in the passage Of the law giving
mixed hloods the right to sell, a bene-
icent purpose was doubtless intended,
but viewed after the event, it had
proven a serious mistake; that 1t was
now held that a. man with one-th1rty-
second part of white blood in his veins
and that the worst white blood there
was to be found-was authorized to
receive lands and sell them the same
as a white man.
The looting Of the Indians seemed
hardly less than cruelty to children.
He realized, of course, that the Indians
wanted cash, and that in order to OBJ
tain it, they had in many instances
represented themselves to be mixed
bloods. He also realized that the
white man had no definite list which
