JOHN l.. JOHNSON.

One of the wellknown and respect
last Sunday morning when John l..
Johnson died at his home at 1: so o.
clock. He has been ill periodically
during the past two years, with a
complication of diseases. He was
taken to a hospital at Fergus Falls

mitted the performance of an oper-
alton which was thought would bene-
fit him. He was taken to his home

since resided here. He was a faith
full member of the Synod church, and
took a leading part in it's affairs. He
was serving on the board Of trustees
at the time Of his death, and was a
member of the building committee
when the new church was erected.
The deceased was married to Miss
Lisa Johnson in 1873, who survives
him. Five children were born to them
Of whom three survive their father
and are living at home-Carl, Alma

LUTHER COLLEGE
BAND PRAISED
What a Brooklyn Paper Said Of
the Band That Comes to
Wi||mar Aug. 9Th.

Standard Union, Brooklyn, May s.
1914.-A band and chorus consisting
of sixty-one students from Luther
College, Ia, which sails today for Nor
way to take part in the celebration
of the Tooth anniversary of Norwegian
independence, gave concert last
night in the Academy of Music. II
was the first appearance of the Luth
er Boys in Brooklyn. A large audi
ence greeted them and at the same
time gave them an enthusiastic send
off for their trip.
1t was q strange sight for Eastern
ers to view an undergraduate body
giving a concert of serious music as
the Iowa students did last night
With the memory Of the typical East.
ern College music fresh in ones
mind the earneStneSs and intelligence
of last nights visitors, inspired re-
spect for the West that was increased
to admiration when compared with
the student music familiar here.
But probably too much credit is
given to the geographical division
from which the players come. 1t is
rather, one irlagines matter of ma
tionality. Luther College is not a
distinctly American institution. 1t was
founded by Norwegians, being the
oldest Norwegian educational insti-
tuition outside the mother country
and has always made a point Of devel-
oping music according to Norwegian
ideas. The present band Of the col
lege has travelled extensively through
the West, where it has had great
success.
The playing last night was we'll
done. The boys, a strong and healthy
looking blond assemblage, made
smart appearance in their neat uni
forms. The director, Prof. Carlo A.
Sperati, conducted his young charg-
es with a suggestion of mastery love
and real authority.
The program included the overture
to Saul, by Bazzini; Grieg's Peer
Gynt' Suite, LISTS Second Hungar-
ian Rhapsody the procession of
knights from 'Parsifal, Saint Saens'
symphonic poem, 'Phaeton,' and The
Death of Custer mad and noisy de-
scriptive piece depicting the battle
of Little Big Horn. The finale was
Nearer My God to Thee. The cho-
rus sang Norge, Norge and soloist
Ingolf A. Grindeland rendered two
solos: Bucks ON the Sea- and Kjer-

On Tuesday ground was broken for
the erection of the State Fish Hatch

The complete cost of the plant is
1892.
The size Of the building is 80 by
60 feet with side walls 10 feet high.
In designing the building the archi-
tectural effect as well as durability
have been taken into account.
The building site is located on the
east side of the Minnesota River i'm
mediately south of tho power plant
in the part of the city called East
Granite Falls. This site was donated
to the state by the city of Granite
Falls.
To have this institution located
here will be of much benefit to south
western Minnesota. It will mean
very much to our city and community.
