ADDITIONAL SOCIETY
MISS TAVES IN
GRADUATE PIANO RECITAL

A very interested audience of friends
attended the graduate piano recital of
servatory of Music Monday evening, at
Stones auditorium. Miss Taves, who
gave such a pleasing graduate recital
in voice about four weeks ago, opened
Vote with Variations. by Rameau,
which she played in a convincingly dig
nifed manner, we'll suited to the char
acter of the work.
The Beethoven Sonata, Op. IA No. 10,
contrasted well with these variations,
the young pianist playing it in a mu-
sical manner with due respect to the
Beethoven traditions, and not allowing
personality at any time to overbalanCe
the true Interpretation. This was fol-
lowed by Chopin group, in which her
Nocturne at once made one feel the
Chopin spirit, and the two Preludes
In her closing group, Miss Taves was
at her best. The Schubert-Liszt num-
ber, Am Nicer, appealed especially to
those who like sustained chord work,
and showed her beautiful tone to good
advantage. The March Wind number,
by MacDowell, which followed, a diff
cult number technically, was played in
a dramatic manner. The polonaise. by
MacDowell, formed a fitting climax to
the program, being given in a splendid
bravura style, displaying a full round
tone. In both these numbers, the diff
culties were surmounted with great
ease and assurance.
Andrew Loves contributions to this
program were indeed attractive, as we'll
as finely executed In the Berceuse
and the Prelude. he displayed a beauti-
fully sustained tone of excellent color,
while in the Mozart Minuet, the long
running passages were not hurried,
but were carried out with excellently
controlled rhythm. The Hungarian
Dance, by Kassmeyer, required a dis
play of fire and enthusiasm backed by
techpical proficiency, which Mr.. Love
was able to furnish. Throughout all
his numbers he showed a remarkably
free bow arm and splendid control. He
was accompanied by Miss Viola Larson.
Both are also connected with the con-
SerVatory.
Miss Taves again received many
pretty gifts of flowers. She is one of
the few to be graduated from the voice
and piano departments of the conser-
vatory at the same time.

Planning Booster
Banquet at A. G.
Again This Year.

So pronounced was the success of
held at the A. C. last year, that plans
are now being formulated to hold a
similar event on the evening of Satur-
day, May 81, probably at Ceres hall.
The banquet will be for everyone in
any way connected with the A. c., as
it was last year, and it is desired that
the attendance be as large as possible
The date being considered, May 27, is
at the same time as the interscholastic
high school meet here, and all of the
participants in that are invited to join
in the festivities. According to the
plans, which are as yet only tentative,
there will be orchestra music during
the course of the banquet, and several
speeches following it. The affair will
probably terminate with an informal
dancing party, and an even more sue
is anticipated.

JURY
RECOMMENDS
IMPROVEMENTS

When the grand jury of the May
terms made its report showing 81 in
dictments out of 3S cases, a week ago,
it was considered by officials that the
jury had done it's work in q faithful
manner and that the entire contents
of the report had been given full pub
licitcity. Along with the routine work
Of the jury a report on the condition
Of the courthouse and the county Jail
was filed with the clerk of court, it
being the usual custom of the jury to
investigate the building and tender a
report.
The substance Of this portion of the
report, however, was not generally
known, it not being published with the
indictments The report is an inter
esting one and follows, in brief:
1--WE, the gsand jury of the May
term of the Clay county district court
after making a thorough investigation
of the conditions at the Clay county
jail, report that it is in firstclass con-
dition. ..
1--WE, the grand jury, also inspected
the courthouse, and find that the water
spouts are poorly connected some
thing that should be repaired at once
We also find that the grand Jury room
is being used for a storeroom, and this
should not be. Walls and the lobby Of
the courthouse also need improve
ments.
1--WE further find. after practical ex-
animate for several days, that Ithe
chairs in the grand jury room are
uncomfortable and we recommend
that more comfortable chairs be pro-
vided for the jurors at the next term"

plant for the disposal of garbage and
rubbish that will do away with the
Very Objectionable city dump.
The disturbance that brought the
question up again was q kick register
ed at the last meeting of the commis-
sion when a resident of Taylor's addi-
tlon where the city dump smells and
smells" appeared and registered a
strenuous kick against it's mainten-
ance in it's present condition and gave
broad intimations that unless there is
a change for the better the matter will
be taken to the district court where it
is believed an injunction can be pro-
cured to effectually put a stop to the
dumping of garbage and rubbish in
that vicinity.
The kick was presented by j. w.
Bernardy of the Bernardy-Viel
Realty Co., which is promoting
portions of Tyler's addition with the
intention of putting up numerous resi-
dences in that section west of the.
slough.
The matter was placed in the hands
OF the city attorney and the health
commissioner. City Atty. w. H. Shure
investigated the dumping ground and
a colony of swine that are kept in the
NlSiillly anu WHICH get their llVeunOOQ
from the garbage of the city. Mr..
Shure reported this morning at a
meeting of the board of commissioners
that the conditions were very bad and
that he believed that should action be
taken, the matter would be stopped by
the courts.
Commissioner of Health Alex Stern
then read letter that he had receiv-
ed from the Northern Incinerator Co.,
in which that company offered to
stand the expense of committee of
the commission to go to Thief River
Falls and there investigate the plant
that is in operation.
The. letter was placed on file as it
agreed to furnish one of the units at
cost and operate it for thirty days in
order to make demonstration.
Commissioner Stern and Mayor
Emery will probably make the trip to
Thief River Falls the latter part of
this week for the purpose of looking
over the plant there. The plant at
Grand Forks has been viewed by the
commissioners
There is now enough money ap-
propriated for the purpose to put in
one or two units and the indications
are that should the investigation show
that the plant at Thief River Falls is
working satisfactorily one unit will be
contracted for and others added later
if it works out we'll here.

AS they are without home, they are

So far nothing has been done to err

Chicago, May Thames A. Patten
and few other local traders say the
foundation for a substantial advance
in wheat is being laid by deterioration
in winter wheat prospects in the
southwest in addition to confirmed
losses east of the Missouri river They
predict that it will be effective later
and are content to buy on all breaks.
Bears and traders who have been
bullish, but who unloaded on the break
the last few days, say there may be a
further upturn but are afraid Of the
buying side, as they are unable to see
where the bulls are to unload unless
there is a decided broadening in out
side buying. Corn is gaining more
friends and there is disposition to buy
on breaks. Bulls say the effect of the
big receipts and increase in acreage
has been discounted by the recent de-
cline. Cash market, export sales of
cash grain at seaboard were one mil
lion bushels wheat including $50, 900
