kELLoee-HAINEs PARTY.
OF Singers Entertains Large and
Gratified Audience at Morenci Club
-Renditicns Embrace Many Ranges
of Music and Artistry of Players is
True.

The Kellogg-Haines singing party,
the first offering of the series of enter
tainments to be staged at the Morenci
Club during the present season,
through the Redpath entertainment
bureau, on the evening of Thursday,
through a long and brilliant program,
gratified an audience that occupied
every available chair of the Clubs
auditorium.
The company, consisting of five
members, one of whom is a pianist,
with four voices in unison, rendered
selections from many grades of music,
and with such response from the
audience as evidenced their true artis.-
try in music and their long experience
in company. The voices were admir-
able, and all renditions denoted that
no composition was attempted which
was above the singers conception,
and applause greeted their every num-
Der. Especially pleasing was the
voice, and grace of the baritone of the
company, who in the execution of the
comic opera Lovely Galatea' proved
power as an interpreter of both
thought and song. In this opera
which is founded upon Greek mytholo-
gy, and which was rendered in full
by the company, striking scenes are
to the fore, and the audience is car
tic with a grace that could only mean
the ability of the players.
Strikingly sung was the Sextette
from Lucia, upon an arrangement for
the four voices. Songs of the Six
ties" including the favorites of many
of the older members of the audience
were sung in costume and spirit that
accorded we'll with the memories of
the listeners.
Should the Kellogg-Haines party be
taken as indicative of the Redpath
series in full, then indeed are Mo-
renci's lovers of music and play aus
piciously beginning the season.

Registration Ends

Registration Ends
At the close of Thursday, October
18th, the registration of voters ceased
with probably very few of the quail
fed citizens of Morenci outside the
lists, as Judge Lally, registering Off
Ger of the precinct, states that the
|registrants at the close numbered nine
hundred and twenty-eight, sixty of
whom were registered after the pri-
maries of September 8. The elections
of November promise to be of suff.
cient interest to attract many of the
voters to the polls, the prediction be-
ing made that more votes will be cast
at the coming election than we're cast
at the September 9Th primaries.

Licensed Hunters

the granting of hunting licenses, states
that already he has issued approx
mately one hundred and fifty of the
certificates to the Nimrods of Morenci,
many of whom are taking advantage
of the opened season to disturb the
fauna of the Eagle Creek and other
sections surrounding Morenci. The
opening, on October 18th, of the
season for quails, drew many hunters
on that date to the haunts of the
birds, which are said to be plentiful
this season.

Monday, November 2, at the Morenci
Club hold a grand free dance to

inclined Of the democratic nominees
and leading democrats of the rank and
6le.

demonstrated at the appearance. on

GERMAN STATEMENT
ADMITSSHARP FIGHTING
But NO DECISIVE GAINS
No Official Announcement of Victory
Made by French but JubiIation III
Military Headquarters Not Dis
guised---Losses on Both
Sides Enormous

BY United Press.
Paris, Oct. 1.-The battle of the
Aisne is already being claimed as a
sweeping victory for the French.
There is no Disgusting the iuhiIation
at mlitray headquarters but still
there is no official announcement that
the allies have won because the war
office, It is believed, wants to make
sure that no premature announcement
Is given out.
The British terrirtorials and the
troops from India are credited with
turning the tide Of battle in favor Of
the allies.
The losses on both sides have been
enormous but no definite figures h
regard TO them will be disclosed for
the present. It is admitted that many
French regiments have been wiped cut
but It is declared unofficiaiIy that the
German army has been routed.
