lish tenor, will share with Lucien
Muratore the position of first tenor
of the Ellis Opera company, which is
to give a series of performances OF
III TroVatOre" and Carmen"

and at Tulsa on october 80 and 81
While Mr.. Muratore will sing Don
Jose in Carmen. Mr.. Kingston has
been especially engaged to sing the
part of Manrico in al Trovatore".
The engagement of Mr. Kingston is
due primarily to Mr.. Cleofonte Cam
panini. the general and musical direc-
tor of the company who told Mr..
Ellis that Kingston undoubtedly was
the greatest Manrico now living and
one of the greatest tenors OF the
world
Mr.. Kingston came to this country
four years ago as principal tenor of
the Century Opera company. organ
lied by Mr.. Otto Kahn in New York
to give opera in English at the Cen
tury opera house. He was the one
great success Of that company and
while he has devoted himself almost
entirely to concert since that time,
the coming season he will be one Of
the principal tenors of the Chicago
opera company.
Critics Liberal.
Mr.. Kingston has been heard in
many American citie and critics are
unanimous in their praise of his work.
Olin Downes of the Boston Post has
said:
Mr.. Kingston was easily the star
OF the occasion his voice is manly
and sonorous and he uses IL with
much dramatic feeling"
The st. Louis Republic acclaimed
Kingston as very great tenor. At
the Cincinnati festival last spring Mr..
Kingston carried off all the honors
and with the New York Oratorio SO
ciety last winter in the first American
performance of Joan of Arc" he !
made n very deep impression. Mr.. !
Ellis believes that in Kingston he will |

LOSS TO The SERVICE.

1t is regrettable that an undercur-
rent of satisfaction runs beneath the
comment of a few Iowa on
the resignation of Clifford Thorns from
the railroad commission. regrettable but
natural enough. Generally speaking,
however, the press of the state ac-
knowledges the ability and great serv-
ice of Mr.. Thorne and sincerely re-
grets hat he is to leave the service of
Iowa.
Thorne, however. ran leave with dig
NIFTY n secure in the estimate the fu-
ture shall! give to his work as a public
servant He has accomplished great
things for Iowa and the general inter-
ests Of Iowa. Too much can not be
said Of his sincerity and in praise of
his purpose. Moreover Iowa had an
expert. one of the greatest experts in
the United States serving at a meager
salary on her railroad commission be-
cause there was work to do that should
be done and adjustments to be made
that needed a nan like Thorne to &C
complish the task. tThorne has saved
the shippers of the state millions with
out injustice to any interest.
Like all purposeful men with courage
and determination Thorne made enc
mics, business and personal enemies.
He was not particularly careful of
corns or particular as to whose corns
were in the way of needed reform, a
very poor respector OF persons and of
p~ersonages. But he did things and re-
fused TO do other things. He measured
up to the time and it's needs and Iowa
Will long be grateful to Thorne and the
work he did as railroad commissioner
of Iowa and for the Iowa shipper.
1t was inevitable that he should
leave the commission. The time al
ways comes when men must think OF
themselves and the future of them
selves and their families. Thorne is a
valuable mar as paid service goes
And he has finally gone to a better paid
service and one where he Will be able
to exercise his extraordinary talents ef-
fectively.
However the time will come wher
Clifford Thorne and his service to his
state will stick out Of the history OF
Iowa railroads and of Iowa shippers
like a spike out of a clapboard.

If the story that comes 70 Iowa of

for scanty enlistments in the
United States army is plain and the
openly voiced charge hat regular army
men are ~endeavoring TO destroy the

have on. even to their underwear and

highest honor. It answered the call

took up arms voluntarily in the service
of their state and country. They made
repute for Iowa wherever they ap-
peared. It is a humiliation to them and

as indicated by the news reports
