WINDY WEATHER RAISES ROOF
ESPECIAL to The Republican

TABER-The heavy winds last
Sunday played havoc with buildings
in Cerro Grande, according to reports
received here, and several acts of
mathematician were performed. The
roof was lifted clean off the dwelling
of Mr.. Mcintyre, and the stone walls
left uncovered as if in awe before
the powers of the elements. The
front windows were torn out of the
post office building. The citizens, no
doubt, are beginning to think of
storm cellars.

SENATOR THOMAS
WAS RIGHT

When the legislature was consid-
ering the matter of sending commit
tees to visit the state institutions,
Senator Thomas vigorously opposed
the plan, representing it to be a
waste of public money from which
little if any good ever comes.
The senate recognized the value
of his views and killed the measure.

Camp Dodge, Iowa, Dec. 4.-This IS
the romance of Morris, the dashing

For realism, there should be some
fine cuts of beef, beautiful heroine

and two or three wedding bells to

this drama, in which Morris Rakiefe,
Company Five, Three Hundred and
Thjrtv-eighth machine gun battalion,
Camp Dodge, and Miss Irene De
LANCE, Moline, H., take the Leading
parts.
The stars were married last week
AT Moline. and Morris returned TO the
cantonment Saturday, a blushing
bridegroom. His romance should
cause an amateur scenario writer TO
shout with JOY.
Until six years ago, Mr.. Rakiere
lived in Bruges, in West Flanders,
AT that time his native country had
been undisturbed by invading Ger
man hosts. His people lived quietly
ON their little farms with no pre-
monition of their impending fate.

vorable Impression at Con-
cert

The third concert Of the season of
the Tri-City Symphony orchestra Civ
en- last evening at the Burtis theatre,
Davenport, was, like the preceding
concerts, a complete success. An al
most capacity audience showed its de-
light In extended applause of all num-
,bers of the program.
Miss Frances Nash, soloist Of the
evening, received enthusiastic ap-
plause following her excellent rendi
ton Of Saint-Saens' Concerto in G
Minor on the piano, with orchestral
accompaniment. Though she has been
heartily received before by tri-city
audiences, she gained more admirers
following her presentation last even
ing. Three portions, Andante Sosten-
uto, Allegro Scherzando and Presto,
were given. and Miss Nash's work
technically was splendid and at all
times alphabetically in accord with
her accompaniment She was pre-
scented with a bouquet Of American
beauty roses.
Ludwig Becker, leader of the sym
phony, is developing the orchestra
into q band of musicians whose every
move is in sympathy with its leader
and it responds with readiness to
his leadership. Such a unity can come
only through masterful leadership and
constant work.
The first number, "Sakuntala," over

wealth of orchestral coloring is one OF
