A BIG MUSICAL
feature TO COME?
Minneapolis Symphony Orchestra
May Come to Webster City
This Spring.

1t is said that j. A. Boeye and w.
H. Cook are planning on securing
the Minneapolis Symphony Orches-
ira again for a spring concert. The
orchestra made their first appear
ance in this city last May and pack
ed the armory opera house with an
almost breathless audience during
the entirety of their program. Many
were present from out of the city
and numerous requests. have been re-
ceived by the gentlemen back of the
undertaking last year for a repeti-
tion Of the visit again this spring.
Nothing definite could be learned
from either of the above mentioned
gentlemen but it is not improbable
that May will be the month again
this year. There will be no difficult
ty in filling the armory with an aud
fence to hear this magnificent or
chestra, if the seats are at all rea-
sonable in price.

DISTRICT COURT

District court is grinding away.

finished yesterday, all but the argu-
ments of the attorneys. ra.
Matilda c. Dover was given a d.
vorce from her husband, Harmon
Dover. s 49, ..S
The grand jury adjourned yester-
day, and it is understood returned
several indictments, said to be of a
sensational character, but they are
not yet given out. 7
The will case of C. H. Sexy is now
on trial This is quite an important
case and involves an estate valued
at from $4,000 to $4,000. Mr..
Sexy resided at Ellsworth and was
eighty-seven years of age when he
died. He willed his property to his
wife and two daughters. The contest
is brought by four daughters by a
former wife and they claimed the
aged man was childish and unfit to
make a will when the instrument
was signed. They allege undue in
fuence. ...

extent and showed no discourtesy to
the one who handed in the question.
DR.. Gordon to my mind is a gentle
man of a very high type OF course
he paid no attention to the question
that asked him through the Free
man-Tribune, but he. had his own
reasons for not doing SO, as the doc
tor was wise enough to see that it
was heavily loaded with dynamite.
Preacher Metcalf seems to have a
great adherence of form and cere-
mony, but listen to what Apostle
Paul says in the 9Th chapter of Ro-
mans II and IS verses: But thanks
be to God where as We were the serv-
ants of sin We became obedient from
the heart to that FORM of Doc
Urine where unto We We're deliver
ed, and being made free from sin We
became the servants of righteous
ness But what does Rev. Metcalf
care about what an inspired apostle
OF the Lord Jesus Christ says about
form and doctrine. | would advise
all who read this article to read the
entire 9Th chapter of Romans and
then draw your own conclusions. AS
far as l am concerned this absolute
ly ends all that l have to say on the
subject. T want to thank the editors
of the Freeman for their
generosity in granting me this space.
Yours for a square deal,

PLANNING TO ERECT
A new BUILDING.
Brown Skate Company Has Matter
Under Consideration-The
Location.

The Brown Skate company is con-
sidering the matter of erecting a
new building this summer. The
company is pressed for room and is
working at a disadvantage and hopes
to be able to make more satisfactory
arrangements in the near future.
This is one of the best industries in
the city and gives employment to
about twenty-five men. The business
is steadily growing and when the
company has ample facilities for the
manufacture of the skates it is max
ing it will turn out much larger
business and of course give employ
ment to more men. A location on
the north side of the Illinois Central
railroad track, adjoining the spade
factory, is under consideration. The
people of Webster City will hope
this institution may see it's way clear
to make the proposed improvement
this year.
