The Missouri Girl" Next Week.

The character of ''Zeke Dobson, .
the country boy, in 'the Missouri
Girl is one of unique conception.
Among the many representations of
the rural types offered to the theatre
going public, there are but few
limited cases where the author has
even attempted to portray this interest
ing character as he is seen in real life.
The stage character of the farmer
is so thoroughly impressed on our
minds that it is almost impossible for
us to imagine a rural play without the
usual impossible characters, that are,
in many cases, serious drawback to
an otherwise good play.
"Zeke" as played by the droll
comedian, Mr.. Joe Weaver, is a true
portrayal OF an honest bright, in
telligent country boy; his dialect
and actions are both peculiar and
droll and he says and does what is
natural. When in the city he makes
ludicrous mistakes and his idea of
city folks and the remarks he
makes about them are extremely
comical, but at the same time true
to life.
The Missouri Girl will be seen
at Hatch's opera house Wednesday
evening, June 25.

ANOTHER LANCASTER BOY
RECEIVES PROMOTION
Prof. Fred Duncalf, in the University of
Texas, Gets Advanced Position
and Larger Salary.

Fred Duncalf, adjunct professor of
the University of Texas, d son of Mr..
and Mrs Thomas Duncalf, of this
city, has been offered the very desir-
able position of assistant professor of
the University of Illinois at a salary
Of 50, 200 per year. Considering the
location Of this institution, with its
high reputation and its splendid
library, the offer was very attractive
one and he thought Texas could not
offer him anything so good, but he
learned that the president and dean
had decided TO raise his salary to
$4,000 for next year. and when they
learned of the Illinois proposition they
increased their offer also to $4,000
coupled with a proffer Of an associate
professorship and other inducements
of a nature that decided him to re-
main in Texas, where he has his
plans all organized and can work out
his own course in his chosen field, that
of medieval history. The Illinois
offer no doubt came as q result of the
book Parallel Source Problems in
Medieval History published by
Harpers, of which Prof Fred Duncalf
and August G.. Krey are joint authors.
This book is the first of its kind pub
lished in the English language and
has received very favorable comment
from the press and instructors in
history in number of the leading
universities. It is already used as a
text book at Bowdoin and Cornell in
the east and Indiana Illinois and
other leading colleges in the middle
west.
Prof. George Burton Adams. Of
Yale, author of Civilization During
the Middle Ages, and other works of
international note says: :'The book
abundantly justifies itself: for the
teacher who wishes to give his pupils
an idea of the way in which history
must be constructed from the sources,
of the nature of historical evidence
and OF the validity of historical con-
illusions there is 20 source hook know
of that is so good I think also the
claim that this is the best book for the
training Of the critical judgment from
historical material is warranted. ;"
Mr.. Krey has accepted position in
the University of Minnesota.

CASSVILLE PROPERTY
WANTED BY RAILROAD
Appraised by Commission in
Condemnation Suit
After Viewing Property In Dispute and
Hearing Evidence, They Offer
Basis For Settlement.

In carrying on their plans for
double tracking their railroad through
this county. and Burlington railway
company found it necessary to acquire
considerable land in the village of
Cassville, lying between their present
tight of way and the Mississippi
river, their purpose being to run the
tracks considerably nearer the river
than they are at present, and do away
with the present arrangement of
running the tracks through one of the
streets and parallel Herewith.
To that end they have been able to
secure the greater portion Of what
land they needed. by purchasing it
from the owners thereof, some of it at
what would ordinarily be considered
a very high price.
From another point of view, how
ever, where the owner did not for
any reason want to sell, what might
seem like a high price to an outsider
might not seem very attractive to
the owner.
Thus a situation arose where a
price could not be agreed upon for
certain pieces of property wanted
and proceedings at law were institut-
ed by the company to have the
property condemned and appraised
by commission Of disinterested
men.
Joseph T. Bennett, of this city,
Geo. Brown. of Millville, and Chas.
j. Nienaus. of Fennimure. were ap-
pointed by Judge Clementson as a
commission to hear evidence in the
matter and appraise the property in
question.
They went to Cassville on May 81,
where they inspected the property and
! its surroundings and heard testimony
in the matter, the citizens and the
railroad being severally represented
by attorneys. Meyer & Burgess, of
THE city and Lees, of Lacrosse, APP
peared for the company, while Brown,
Brennan & Carthew and Witherell, Ct
Lacrosse, represented the property
owners
After carefully reviewing the situa-
tion for a couple of weeks, the com
mission met here last Friday after
noon and. evening and fixed the vaIua-
tions at such figures as in their judg-
ment was fair to all concerned. Such
values, as shown in their report, are
IS follows:
The Baumgartner residence property,
So, 800.
A vacant lot lying diagonallT across
the street from the Deniston hotel
and belonging to Mrs. Agnes Grimm.
ST, 200.
Residence property of Mrs. Rhoda
Ishmael, brick house, directly opposite
hotel, s. 500.
Warehouse property belonging to
the Klindt-Geiger Co., So, $50.
Two vacant lots known as the
creamery property, owned by the
Klindt-Geiger Co, $1,000.
This action Of the commission is
subject to appeal in the courts by
either party interested in case it prove
unsatisfactory, but is thought to be an
equitable basis for settlement.

BIG CYCLONIC STORM
HITS BOICE PRAIRIE
Farm Buildings Destroyed and
Much Damage Done
Destruction Was Most Severe at the
Farm of w. P. Richardson Whose
Loss Was Heavy

The Boice Prairie portion of South
Lancaster was in the path of cyclonic
storm of wind and rain which passed
over that section last Saturday even
ing just before dark, destroying
great deal of farm property,
Many who saw it say there was
funnel shaped cloud of dark greenish
color which came from the south west
The most serious damage was done
on the farm of W. P. Richardson,
about six miles south Of the city, on
the Potosi read His barn and all of
the other buildings except the house
were destroyed Portions of the
buildings were carried a half mile or
more and pieces Of wreckage scattered
over the adjoining fields One build
ing was swept up by the wind and
carried over the house and a AKA
scantling driven down through the
roof and ceiling of the house. A
heavy piece of timber on which was
the iron track for hay carrier in the
barn was crashe ed through the side of
the summer kitchen and wood shed,
which was practically demolished.
The 60 foot hog house was sucked up
by the wind and no traces Of it can be
found. The garage was twisted from
its foundation and carried away but
the automobile which was in the
building at the time was left I'M
harmed. The orchard was practi-
cally ruined. Mr.. Richardson 6 loss
is very heavy and what insurance he
had did not provide against cyclones
or tomatoes.
At the farm of George Bailie a hay
shed, corn crib and wind mill were
destroyed and the cupola blown off
his barn.
To the yard Of VIM. Bailey near by
six or seven large pine trees in the
front yard of his splendid farm home
were snapped off by the wind and
scattered in heaps Of wreckage over
the place. The cupola on his barn
was also blown loose and number Of
concrete fence posts either broken off
or wrenched from the ground.
The barn of Christian Vesperman
was moved on it's foundation but not
seriously injured,
More or less damage was done in
the Boice Prairie cemetery where
several monuments are said to have
been partially blown over.
In other sections more damage was
done by the heavy rain than by the
wind, and torrents of water poured
down the hills with much injury to
the roads and fields. In some fields
the crops Uf growing corn were COM
pletely submerged in places and
gullies washed out across the fields.
1t was one of the hardest rains we
have had here in long while, but
only lasted short time. No partic-
ular damage is noted in the city,
but in places the water accumulated
in the cutters much faster than it
could be carried away through the
sewers and swept over the concrete
walks and onto the lawns of adjoining
residence property.
Writers of cyclone insurance have
found buinesss quite good for couple
of days as the result of the storm.
