cording to Northwest Side bulletin.
I'D. Dempsey's attention Is called to
the fact that council subcommittee
last spfing made a visit to the base
meIt in question and they found that
the ventilation system was not
woriing" The ight-hearted way
4 Aid. Dempsey talks about sub-base-
mems is touched off with this con-
trzst:
Ear different Is the exclamation
made by former Fire Chief Koran
when he said: For Gods sake, don't
permit second basement salesrooms.
We have chance to get people out
when theXEare above ground. But it's
a hard fighting chance in basement
and far worse when they're in sub
basement"
The ordinance legalizing the use
of Mandel Bros subbasement as a
salesroom did not come up for pas
sage in the ci ty council yesterday.
One of the points to be used in the
fight on the ordinance is the claim
that it is granting special privilege.
Mandel Bros. say they do not want
special privilege. They want to
make the ordinance general amend
ment instead of specifically applying
to the sexisting Easements"
Even if the ordinance is made a
general amendment some aldermen
claim still that it will not get away
fro mbeing a special privilege, for
only five loop stores will benefit by it.

AUSTRIA GRANTS ALL DEMANDS
OF U. S. IN ANCONA CASE


OF U. S. IN ANcONA CASE
Washington, Dec. 31.-Danger of
severance of diplomatic relations be-
tween Austria and U. S. is past. Aus
tria has substantially" complied
with U. S. demands regarding An
coma case. This was official view
taken in Washington today.
The three demands of the U. S.,
disavowal of Ancona's sinking while
passengers were still aboard, punish
ment of submarine commander and
reparation for American lives lost,
officials declare, have been in effect
granted by Austria.
Officials were especially elated
over fact that Austria went even fur
Their than U. S. demands-by giving
assurances for future conduct of her
submarine warfare according to in
ternational law.
Officials are agreeably gratified
over Austria's willingness. to pay for
American lives without proof of
whether they were lost in shell fire
or torpedoing or from negligence of
Aneona's crew.

Treachery
(By Associated Press }

PRETORIA, B. S. A., Feb. 10.-Lo-
cal newspapers today publish a report
that Lieut.-Col. S. G. Maritz, the former
Boer officer actively commanding the
rebellion against British authority in
South Africa, has been executed by
the Germans for treachery, after trial
by drum-head courtmartial.
Maritz had the open support of many
Germans in his rebellion, which col
lapsed several weeks ago, and finan-
cial backing of the adventure is be-
lieved to have been furnished by the
German government.
A diligent inquiry is now being made
in the effort to confirm news of Ma
ritz's execution, but thus far no official
information can be had touching on
the incident.

Splendid MALE'7
QUARTETYE

With Coburns Greater Minstrels
next Monday at the Opera House, one
of the feature musical offerings of the
season is the Metropolitan Singing
Four, the best quartette in minstrelsy.
There probably is not a patron or
yer of minstrelsy and vocal music
whose preference would not be quoted
in favor of this enjoyable form of mus
ical entertainment. Lester Lucas, Bas-
so, whose powerful voice has been
heard and enjoyed with this attraction
in past seasons, has been promoted to
the position of interlocuter in the big
new first part production, in which ca
pacity his pleasing personality, clean
ennunciation and dramatic ability in
dividualize him as a master of cere-
monies. William Church, counter
tenor, with splendid and powerful
voice having 4 range of "E" above
high C, makes him star soloist and
top tenor feature. billie" also is the
comedian of the quartette as well and
fills it capably, Justin Mccarthy, Gel
tic tenor lead and soloist, whose Swiss
Yodels have been heard with Man
ager Coburn and Joseph Mcguire, ro-
bust baritone soloist and the latest
addition to this pleasing spec
ialty, complete the quartette. The
solos, harmony numbers and comedy
bits used this season by these singers
demonstrate their right to the title
claimed for them, and no patron of Co
burns Minstrels will be disappointed
in the result of their combined eff
forts to please next Monday, Feb. 18th.
