It was really sad and solemn rite.
the song recital Nine. .Schumann- -Heink

sorrow OF motherhood in these days.
Nor were there many dry eyes when
at the end OF her program she gave

its feet, and IL was kept standing

Country, 'Tis of Thee" that brought
her recall after recall.
Singer I'm Tragic Mood.
Il was a sadder and more serious
Schumann-Heink than we have known
before. and her tragic mood was but
little relieved and that only by the de
lightful Delibes Good Morning, Sue"
(.5onjour, Suzon) done in English, and
by request, as an encore. the German
folk song, "Spinn, meine liebe Tochter."
Again, with almost epic splendor she
gave the "Agnus Der OF Bizet with
heart-breaking ''Miserere' and she
spoke to the heart when. also by re-
quest, she sang the holy Christmas
"Stille Nacht. heilige Nacht."
IN four languages Mime. Schumann-
Heink's opening group showed the artist
of dramatic power and diversity. She
gave the Handel "Armida aria from
"Rinaldo." Bach's My Heart Ever
Faithful" a lovely Beethoven and with
deep feeling the 'Ah. mon fills" from

the great depths Of her sonorous voice

ever, the horror in the Salter Cry Of

As assisting soloist. Vladimir Du-
binsky, 'cellist, played the Boellman
Variations SymphOnique" and several
Russian selections. His encoTes were
the Chanson IndQue" of Rimsky-
Korsalloff and a Spanish Serenade by
GlaEounoh. Edith Evans, a young
accompa mist, was ever sympathetic,
playing with much nicely Of execu-
tion and delicacy.

6. AR. to Honor
Civil War Officer
on Memorial Day

Thru the Masonic fraternity of this
city there has been discovered in
Riverside the grave of man long ago
forgotten locally, but one who, during
his life was prominent In this state
and nephew of a United States sen
ator. He was Thomas Hart Benton,
Jr., nephew OF the famous senator
from Missouri, whose name the nephew
bore. Senator Benton represented his
state in the senate for more than thirty
years.
At one time Thomas H. Benton. Jr..
lived in this city, and was a member
of Marshall lodge and Sisnet chapter
of Masons. Accident led to the dis
covery Of the name on the Masonic
rolls, and when st. Aldemar COM
mandery recently held its Ascension
day exercises, the grave of Thomas
Hart Benton, Jr.. was decorated, altho
he was not a knight Templar.
Mr.. Benton was more than an or
binary man and in addition to his SER
vice as an officer of the Twenty ninth
Iowa volunteer infantry, he was prom
inent in public life. He was made
colonel of the Twenty ninth in August,
1862, and brigadier general by hrevet
Dec. Is, 1864. He was mustered out
Aug. 10, 1865. Because OF his army
service the G. A. r. will pay especial
attention to the decoration of his grave
on Memorial day.
Mr. Benton was a native of Williah;-
son county, Tennessee. where he was
born Sept. 5, 1916. In 1899 he caiae
| to Dubuque became a school tea2iier,
and later a merchant. In 1916 he was
elected to the Iowa senate of the first
general assembly. Two years later he
was elected on the democratic ticket as
state superintendent of public instruc-
| ton. and served six years. After he
became a resident of Council Bluffs
Mr.. Benton was chosen secretary OF
i the state board of education, serving
from. 1858 until 1862. In 1860 he was
elected grand master of Iowa Masons,
serving one year. In 1865 Mr.. Benton
was the democratic and anti-neSro
suffrage candidate for governor, but
was defeated. In 1866 he was APP
pointed by President Johnson as as
SCISSOR of internal revenue.
Mr.. Benton died in st. Louis April
10, 1879. His body was buried in the
family lot. which is near the Wood
bury monument. On the same lot are
the graves of Mrs Benton one of hel
children. and that of Nathaniel Greene
