ZOELLINERS GIVE
MUSICAL TREAT
of SERIES OF ARTISTS RE
CITALS PROVES TO BE OF
RARE MERIT.

Mitchell music lovers we're more
than delighted last evening with the
concert by the Zoellner string quar-
tet, the last of the series of artists
recitals given under the auspices of
the Dakota Wesleyan school of mu-
sic. The concert was given in the city
hall auditorium, which was we'll fill
ed for the event.
The quartet played with the per-
%cision, finish and perfect ensemble
that ome only after long years of
playing together. The work of each
member of the quartet was so salts
factory and the four made such a
complete and artistic whole that in
dividual mention is hardly possible.
Amandus Zoellner played violin
solos by Wieniowski and Kresiler
and was obliged to respond with two
encores, the Pierrot serenade by Junr
and the Munuet in G from Beethoven
by Browscki.
At the close of the program the
audience demanded another number
and the quartet responded with the
Andante Cantibile from Op. III of
Tschaikowky.
w. l.. Gray, director of the school
of music, announced that on the pro-
gram1for next season would be Hugo

The trustees also viewed the seven
or eight sites which were offered
for their consideration making the
trip by automobile. Among the pro-
posed sites offered was n by o. E.
Cassem, in Capital addition north
of the Omaha tracks; a track of five
acres offered by DIR. e. w. Heyler
from his farm southeast of the city
but within the limits; several tracts
suggested by T.. H Oche!tree in Sun

the university campus, and one offer

Several other sites were offered to
