CHIMNEY FIRE is STUBBORN
Firemen Fight Nearly Three Hours
Against Slowly Creeping Blaze
in Ebensteiner Home.

The fire department answered two
chimney fire alarms on Tuesday. The
first was shortly before noon from the
home of ]. M. Brown where the fire.
men quenched the flames with prac-
tically no damage. The second alarm
came in few minutes before nine
o'clock at night from the home of Ig-
natius Ebensteiner on East Third
street. This proved a stubborn blaze
to extinguish. Breaking through a
defective chimney, the slow fire spread
into partitions and down into the
floor, requiring chiseling out of holes
and gradual drowning with chemicals.
The fire had undoubtedly been burning
several hours before discovered. In
surance agents appraised the loss at
$1OO.

Mr.. Bergquist repeats his text too
much, stringing out a simple four-word
sentence frequently over a page or
more. This. however, does not detract
from the intrinsic merit of the work.
The treatment of the chorus 1t is Fin
ished is very skillfuI and creates quite
the right mood. The fugue is effec-
lively managed and the final chorus
Alteration contains much that is pure
and beautiful.
THE text is printed in English and
Swedish 1t would seem that there is
a place in choral literature for this
work, one of the most logically con-
ceived oratorios by a contemporary
musician published in this country for
some time
