Inheritance Helps
Fritz Kreisler Be
Master of Violin

Fritz Kreisler, the great violinist, whose
concert is announced for Tuesday even
ing, February 10, at the Auditorium, the
fifth and last of the charity concert
course, inherited certain qualities which
have gone far to make him the supreme
master that he is. By race he lie a Czech
and as such has inherited that interest
ing mixture of dreamy languor and fiery
romanticism which are the peculiar
artistic attributes of the Slavic race. BY
birth he is a Viennese and having re-
ceived his early training and education in
that city he has absorbed the almost
gallic vivacity and sparkle Characteristic
of the Viennese. In his life he is thor
oughly cosmopolitan. thoroughly at home
in Vienna Berlin, Paris, st. Petersburg,
Rome and New York. And this cosmopli-
tanism has given him sure balance OF
feeling for proportion and a sense of
fitness which very few artists have.
His Omaha concert has been announced
as follows:
(a) Sonata, A major. Handel

JOKESTERS BEFORE
 KANGAROO COURT

Several of the young men of King man thought it a capital idea to ride out to the Mays Wells ranch a few nights ago and play a joke the cowboys who, being temporarily em- ployed in that neighborhood, were housed at that place. The joke, so far as learned, consisted of the pulling of an empty flask on the dry bunch.
 It so angered the otherwise perfect ly harmless crowd of cowmen that a kangaroo court was immediately de- clared convened and the jobers were each in their turn treated to a dose of the chaps. One of the visitors thought it wise to run from the of ficials of the court, making necessary the appointment of extra deputies for his apprehension. When he was caught and brought to justice, according to good authority, he received a number of extra slaps, such a number, in fact, that for the few days following, he was compelled to eat from the mantel.

MAN SUPPOSED DEAD
 Is VERY MUCH ALIVE

The dead has come to life. That is a broad statement, but one which is seemingly true of an old-timer of Oat- man. The old timer is Frank Boyd, former proprietor of the Mohave and Mohave No. 2 restaurants. A short time ago a telegram was received here from a San Francisco hospitals saying he had passed away.
 The telegram was accepted as cor rect, and Mir. Boyd's friends have been mourning his loss for some time. But the cat came back. He returned to Oatman yesterday, looking and feel ing better than for several years. He has gained 30 pounds and his cheeks resemble the color of apple blossoms.
 ''No, I am not dead" he said, ''but I was very near it while undergoing an operation in a San Francisco hospital some time ago. I am in Oatman to stay, and it is likely that another Mo have eating house will be in evidence within a short time"

While there he was operat- ed on for appendicitis and, though he is still weak, he is recovering rapidly and will soon be as strong as ever. He has nothing but praise for the fa- nous surgeons, as they succeeded in removing a trouble which has caused him much suffering for many years Jerome Carrow, his brother, accom- panied him to Minnesota and returned with him.

SUN DIAL PLANS
 ID RESUME SOON

President George H. Nolan of the Sun Dial Mining company stated yes terday that the annual meeting of the stockholders of that company will be held in the near future. He also stat ed that it will be but a short time until the company will resume opera tions with sufficient capital to thor oughly explore it's holdings.
 The Sun Dial adjoins the Oatman Amalgamated and is known as one of the most promising properties in the northern part of the district. When operations are resumed the shaft, which is 150 feet in depth, will be sunk to the 3O0-foot point before cross cut ting is started. Every hundred feet thereafter a crosscut will be run to the vein.

BIG BOILER ARRIVES
 AT IOWA PROPERTY

The long looked for 60 horsepower boiler arrived at the Iowa yesterday and is being installed with all possible speed. The pumping equipment ar rived some time ago and is in place and ready for operation. As soon as the boiler is placed, unwatering of the shaft will begin and it is expected that within a very short time sinking will be under way.
 The Iowa is an old property, a shaft having been sunk to a depth of 200 feet several years ago. The present company has had some difficulty owing to a large flow of water. When the shaft was sunk it was found that the water flow was so great that it was impossible to go to a greater depth without the expenditure of a large amount of money. Consequently de- velopment ceased and it was not until the past summer, when the present company took hold of the property, that work was resumed.
 The first difficulty which confronted the new company was the handling of the water. Machinery was ordered soon after the resumption of opera tions, and the delay in its arrival has been big drawback. When the water is under control it is planned to sink to a depth of 600 feet. Crosscutting will be done every hundred feet, and possibly at lesser intervals.
 The Iowa adjoins the Lazy Boy and is said to be one of the most promis- ing properties in that part of the dis trict.

HE WILL
 CUT LEDGE SOON

At the Oatman Combination cross cutting on the 500 foot level con- tinues. Manager W. P. Mahoney states that it is his opinion that the vein will be disclosed in the south crosscut in a short time. A change of formation was recently noted, and, according to MT. Mahoney, every round shows better indications.
 The Combination adjoins the Big Jim and the Black Eagle claims of the Tom Reed, and is looked upon as one of the most promising properties in the district. The company is well financed.

Active development of the prop erty of the Oatman Gold Monster Mining company was inaugurated recently, under the direction of Dan Murphy. A tunnel is being driven on what is known as the Darcy claims.
 A well defined vein on the property is visible for a great distance. The vein, it is expected, will be disclosed in the tunnel when it has been ad- vanced 800 feet.

NEW BASE FOR J. [.
 COMPRESSOR ARRIVES

The new base for the big electrically driven compressor at the United East ern arrived recently and is now be- ing installed. When the compressor provements in and around the shaft. it was broken, and is has been a diff ficult piece of engineering to keep it in working order pending the arrival of the new base.
 During the installation of the new part it has been necessary to discon- tinue sinking, and the management is using the time by making other i'm provements in and around the hsaft- One of the most important of the i'm provements is the placing of two new cages in the shaft. In the past buck cts only were used.

ASKS DAMAGES OF $4,000.
Two Suits Filed Against L. j. Curran
as Result of an Automobile
Accident Last November.

Two suits totaling in their demand
for damages ten thousand dollars, were
filed in the circuit court this morning.
l. j. Curran is named as defendant in
both Of the suits. They are based on
an automobile accident which occurred
at the corner Of Elizabeth and Pleas
ant streets on November 18th of that
year. On this date an automobile
driven by Curran struck Joseph Mora
eito, seven year old boy. He was
very badly injured and in the action
for damages it is alleged that he suf-
fcred injuries to his head and BODY
which are of permanent nature The
first suit against Curran is brought by
Dominenci Morabito, as guardian for
the boy, and the demand in this action
is five thousand dollars. There is sun
Elemental action against Curran
brought to recover the value of the
services of young Morabito to his faith
er. This amount is also placed at FIVE
thousand dollars. Both of the suits
have been noticed for trial at the next
term of the circuit court.

CITY MUST DEFEND AWARD
Property Owners on the Street Are Anx.
ious to Get Action in Court in Order
Not to Delay Likely Fight for Sub
way in Connection With Elevation.

The question of the opening of South
street to connect with Pleasant street
reached the dignity of a circuit court
artion this morning when the formal
appeal of Mrs. Fanny M. Hough from
the award of the commissioners was
filed by City Clerk Harrington with
the clerk Of the court. With it the
clerk filed a complete statement of all
the transactions Of the council in con-
nection with the proposed street open
ing. The award of the commissioners
to which Mrs. Hough has filed an OBJ
lection was confirmed by the council a
month ago but no attempt has been
made to carry out the recommendations
of the commissioners in connection with
the opening of the street and it is i'm
probable that any action will be taken
until after the circuit court has passed
on the appeal. In her formal appeal
Mrs. Hough demands that the court de-
termine the necessity for the opening
of the street and further that it determ-
inc the amount to be paid as damages
to the various property owners and the
amount to be paid as benefits by them
to the city. Mrs. Hough is the only
protesting property owner.
The city is going into the appeal of
the case with confession of Judgment
as before the award of the commission
ers was confirmed members of the coun-
Gil admitted that it was not fair to Mrs.
Hough. The suggestion was made that
the property owners raise fund to
make up any deficiency in the amount
allowed to Mrs. Hough as damages but
only small sum was raised and if the
court awards her further damages it is
probable that these must be paid by the
city. The possibility of early elevation
of railway tracks has brought the
South street matter to a crisis. People
owning property on the street appear
to be anxious to have the street extend
ed regardless of the fact that the eleva-
tion plan does not provide for subway
at South street. It is pretty. certain
that the property owners on this street
will be one of the strongest protesting
factors against the elevation plan.
The hearing of the appeal will prob
ably be taken up in the circuit court at
the June term and it is improbable that
the council will act to extend the street
until after the court has decided on just
how much is to be paid as damages.
