DIXIE MINISTRELS
Good Minstrel Show to be Put
On at City Hall

The Dixie Minstrels, which will ap-
is no doubt an attraction of merit, as
they recently played Butte, Montana,
on Christmas, and the following is
an abstract taken from the Butte
Standard, December 26th, and the same
was presented to the editor of this pa
per who will confirm the following.
having read same:
"The Dixie Minstrels give a good
show The Dixie Minstrels, which ap-
peared at the auditorium last night
gave performance that was we'll re-
ceived. The two blind men, Johnson
and Mackey, are wonderful musicians.
The first of the program Is a real old
fashioned minstrel with some novel
dances. The second part consisted Of
songs and dances and the feature act
was a saxaphone and clarinet solo,
both Of which called repeated encores
This part closed with clever girl
sketch. The last part of the program
afforded johnson and Mackey an op
portunity to display their cleverness,
though both are blind from birth they
are wonderful musicians and singers
and are supported by company Of ten
people who give performance that
would even be creditable to much
larger company"

SCENERY CONTRACT LET
City Council Secures Services OF
Noted Painter for Scenery

George Schroeder, of Hepburn, was
in Richfield, Monday, on business with
the city council. They hope to secure
him to paint the scenery for the city
hail. and while the price is high, it is
not every place that can have the work
of real artist for such service. Mr..
Schroeder was house painter, once,
but felt the stirring of the artistic spirit,
and took up landscape painting. He is
not product of the conventional schools
of art; he took his lessons from the
winds, the waves, the great outdoors
land when he was in Italy last sum-
ner, working, studying, enjoying the
artistic triumphs of the Old World,
there were not few of the greatest
amoung them who were unsslfish and
discerning enough to predict that some
day he will be one of the real masters
of the whole world. 1t may be recalled
that several of his works were shown at
the Woman's Art Club exhibit last year
when they easily overshadowed in in
terest and appeal the most famous
paintings of the $25, 900 loan exhibit A
year in Europe, the home of painting,
has brought him some technical skill
and judgment of art standards as others
see them---but it has also intensified his
belief that Idaho, and the Great Out
doors of the West, is greater teacher
than them all.
Mr. Schroeder, who is literateur as
we'll as pain. er has always felt the ap-
peal of Gray's "Elegy in Country
Churchyard. ''It is the greatest piece
of literature in the English language,
in his opinion; and he has planned SER
les of panel paintings, representing the
whole story of that matchless poem,
which he hopes to finish up in the next
three years. There will be nothing
finer in American art, than this noble
series of Idaho paintings. Mr. Schroed-
er is an Idahoan, homesteadsr down
at Hepburn. where his little studio is
coming to be noted wherever people |
talk of true American art

Hope When Girl Hits
Deliyeryman.

The automobile belonging to Frisco
locomotive engineer, L. L. Butler, yes
terday afternoon collided with the de-
livery car of the Rage Grocery Com
pany, giving the occupants of the re-
spective machines thorough awaken
ing, and scattering groceries in confu-
sion over the area surrounding the
point of contact.
The Butler car was driven by Miss
Ellen Gill and the delivery car was in
charge of Jesse Hahn.
As Miss Gill turned the corner at
Good Hope and Lorimier streets she
collided with the groceryman who was
just leaving the Otto Friedrich home
where he had been delivering some
goods.
One of the tenders was badly bent
on the Butler car, and the steering
gear was put out of commission on the
grocer'S machine.
Neither of the drivers was injured.

young mule, while in a playful spirit,
kicked at her as he passed, striking
her on the hip and knocking her down.
She was injured so severely that she
was unable to rise until her husband
arrived and helped her to her feet and
supported her while she made her way
to the house.
At first it was feared that the hip
was broken, but an examination yes
terday revealed no broken bones.

WILLIAM LAMPE'S FRIENDS
CELEBRATE HIS BIRTHDAY
Fiftieth Anniversary is Commemorate
ed By Surprise Party at
His Home.

William Lampe was given a pleas
ant surprise last Sunday when large
party of friends and relatives from all
sections of county paid him an unex-
pected visit at his home, five miles
west of this city, where they spent the
day in helping to commemorate his
fiftieth birthday.
Mr. Lampe had been kept in total
ignorance of the arrangements that
were being made for the occasion, and
at. first was at a loss to understand
why so many of his friends from va
rious localities should happen to be
coming to see him all at the same
time. Finally the secret was exposed
and Mr.. Lampe shared in the enjoy
ment of the joke that had been per-
petrated upon him.
The day was spent in delightful
manner and despite the stormy con-
ditions in the afternoon, everybody en-
joyed the day.
A large number came in automobiles
and after the heavy rain in the after
noon, the road became impossible and
the autos could not return from town
to get them. Wagons and teams were
pressed into service and in that man.
ner many of the guests were conveyed
back to their homes.
Those present were:
Mr.. and Mrs. Henry Althenthal, Mr..
and Mrs. Albert Lampe, Mr.. and Mrs.
Gus Sanders, Mr.. and Mrs. Frederic
Lampe ST., Mr. and Mrs Jacob Busch,
Mr.. and Mrs. John Busch, Mr.. and Mrs.

AUTOS BUMP IN THE COUNTY
DR.. DaltOn's Machine and G.. H. Han
fOrd's Collide, But Neither
Is Damaged.

In rear end collision on the Jack
son road yesterday afternoon, the car
driven by Dr. r. P. Dalton was struck
by a machine driven by George S.
Hanford, and both autos were given
strenuous test of their staying quail
ties.
DR.. and Mrs. Dalton were driving
toward Jackson, and Mr.. and Mrs.
Hanford were following close behind
in their machine. When they reached
a point a short distance beyond the
five mile stone, DR.. Dalton swung his
car to the left side of the road and
started to turn around.
While he was still in the act of turn
ing, Mr.. Hanford's machine dashed in
to the rear wheel of the Dalton car,
raising it off the ground and almost
turning it over.
The ladies became greatly alarmed
and were almost hysterical with
fright. Their husbands Gained them
with assurances that the danger was
over and that no serious damage had
resulted from the unexpected mishap.
The tenders on both cars were bent
and a few other minor injuries were
inflicted, but no material damage was
done.
Mr.. Hanford explained that when
the doctor turned to the side of the
road he was under the impression that
the physician was making room for
him to pass, and he did not realize I'M
til too late to avoid the collision, the
real purpose of the movement.
