KRE|SLER SURPRISES
HIMSELF IN CONCERT
Masterful Program SuperbIy
Rendered Delights Crowded
House at National.

Fritz Kreisler surpassed even him
self in his violin recital given at the
National Theater yesterday AFTERNOON
before the usual Kreisler crowded
house with many people standing. 1t
was. too, a masterful program he pre-
scented. with two major Bach compost
tions and a Wleniawski concerto.
The peerless artist among violinists,
Mr.. Kreisler's great gift almost defies
analysis. His technical facility seems
without limitation. and what comes
out OF IL Is an art whose nobleness yet
Possesses in every tone a musical value
that Is sheer beauty.
1t Is as though he yields several vio-
Inns when his instrument alone Is heard
In the Bach adagio and fugue In @
minor. His sustaining of the varied
qualities In this unaccompanied work,
throughout the broadly developed fugue,
was truly unbelievable; while the
adagio was pure and exquisite romance
music. The entire Bach sonata In Il
major. with it's lovely parts that are
heard separately, such az the delight
full "Gavotte." were all given with that
individuality that sets them apart.
Rare indeed were the dimuendoes In
the prelude.

CAMP WILSON. SAN ANTONIO,
Nov. ~. tBy MaiD.--Whlle the Dis

things about the business of soldier

duties held more fascination for them
than the digging OF trenches at night
to prepare for an attack by an mag
mary enemy.
Colonel Young and the other officers
OF the Third Regiment believe this
work was the most instructive and
beneficial the Washingtonians have
had since they were mobilized. Al
though the digging of the trenches
similar to those used by the armies
cradle hard labor. all the enlisted men
professed to like II and hope they

this line before they arc mustered

trench themselves In a field a short

WHEAT TAKES
 SUDDEN LEAP
International News Service.

CHICAGO, Aug. 10.-Reports of great crop losses due to bad weather conditions lately prevailing in the wheat growing districts, caused a startling furry in the market yester- day and before the grain exchange closed the price of wheat had advanc- ed eleven and three quarters cents.
 Exchange reports from all sections of the wheat growing area disclose that there will be decided lessening in the volume of wheat production.
 Mainly due to an excessive rainfall, combined with other adverse condi- tions, there is every prospect that the 1916 crop will fall far below the aver age. Millers and grain handlers pre- dict record price for flour during the coming winter.

Mr and Mrs. R. B. Zehner, with the sailing of the Umatilla, will shake the dust of Nome off their feet and depart for the more salubrious outside to return no more. At least it is not the intention to return again. The departure of the couple, both of whom are known to almost every person in Nome, will be deeply regretted by their large circle of friends and ac- quaintances, most of whom they have been in contact almost daily with for the past sixteen years. The couple intend to proceed to San Diego and contemplate ultimately making their home in that town. Before finally settling down, however, they will tour large portion of the country and ex- pect to be in Washington in time for the next inauguration. They will also visit relatives and expect to take in the next Mardi Gras at New Or leans.

One of the men belonging to the schooner Teddy Bear was the recipient of attentions from the coast guard crew this morning when the dory in which he was making his way ashore was upset in the heavy surf in front of the life saving station. The man had all but reached the beach when a heavy roller caught the frail craft and flung it's passenger headlong into the foaming waters where he was rolled around nt q lively rate before the surf men could reach him. When fished out by the life savers he was found to be suffering from nothing more severe than a good wetting.

letter of interest to owners of antimony deposits from Donald w. Ross, of 319 Birmingham avenue, Pititsburg, Pa, and addressed to s. Simson, was read at the Chamber of Commerce meeting last night. The communication states that the writer has heard that Mr. Smson is the owner of antimony deposits and if they can be made to economically yield either metallic antimony or anti mony oxide, practically free from such impurities as arsenic, iron and copper, he will be pleased to learn what disposition the owner cares to make of them. He also states that if outside money for development is de- sired he would be pleased to know what means are figured on to interest such capital. The interest of the writ CT is, he says, purely to obtain a basis for investment as it is desired to procure dependable American source of antimony if the same is to be had" The deposits must be very large. advantageously situated and yield very pure products to merit interest.

Rumor has it that some parties en- gagged in the trading business are pre- pairing to make a whisky raid on the Siberian coast as soon as it is thought that the Russian patrol boat, now on the farther coast, has returned to the south. Nothing can be learned as to the identity of the parties who are figuring on the transaction but the rumor nevertheless persists indicat- ing that something of that nature is in the wind. It is regrettable that nothing can be done to prevent an affair of this character as it is in com plete defiance of both law and de- cency. Decent trade with the natives lis to be encouraged but interruptions trading such as is apparently contem- plated deserves severe condemnation as injurious to Nome and to all par ties who might be inclined to conduct legitimate trading business.

George D. Schofield and Frank c. Dean was appointed to interview MT Pugh and learn if there is any way in which the traders can be prevented from clearing port with liquor in- cluded in the goods carried aboard their vessels.
 The road committee reported that a wire has been sent to Major Rich ardson, at St. Michael. requesting an interview relative to the development of a system of roads on Seward pen insula which will tend to bring future road construction under a compre- hensive plan whereby the development of the peninsula may be furthered to the best advantage.
 The committee in charge of the cir culation of the petition requesting the pioneer and soldiers home board to establish the projected home on Sew ard peninsula, preferably at the Kruz- gampa Springs, reported that they had secured three hundred or more names within an hour or two and expected to get the signatures of over a thou sand.
