Mr.. LaFollette hurries to explain that
it was all an oversight and that he

that he would have time to write an
amendment before the war resolution
was voted on. Evidently the Wisconsin

ESTABLISH An OFFICE
office of Kenosha Chamber of Com
merce to Be Used by Fund Milton L.
Dowse Appointed to Help In Work
of Collection Of Fund.

Another chapter was written in the
history of the now famous "Kenosha
Plan" at the meeting of the permanent
committee at the Chamber of Commerce
Building Monday evening, when the
members took the first steps towards
making the first disbursements of the
great fund. The demands Of the Red
Cross, the Y M. G. A., the knights of
Columbus and the Salvation Army, as
they are based on membership and
population will have the immediate at
tention of the committee and soon some
part of the money willingly donated by
Kenoshans will be on it's way to allevi-
ate the discomforts and suffering of the
soldiers in camp and trenches. The
large number of demands and the appar-
emit uncertain bases that the various
funds are using in asking for appropri-
ations caused all other disbursements to
be held up for more careful investiga-
tion on the part of the committee
The meeting, which was attended by
almost every member of the committee,
was presided over by Chairman A. III.
Lance. The investigation committee
made a complete report of all of the
demands for appropriations and the
consideration and discussion of these
funds took the major part of the time
Of the meeting. After taking action
on the four major funds, as stated
above, the balance of the funds will be
classified and appropriations made on a
scientific basis
The office Of the Kenosha Chamber
of Commerce was adopted by the com
mittee as the general office Of the per-
manent committee. Milton L. Dowse
was appointed by the committee to
have charge Of the handling Of this
fund, assisting Joseph Funck, treasurer,
and Clark S. Judd, secretary. On ac-
count Of the immediate demands for ac-
tion on the several funds Chairman
Lance has called the next meeting of
the committee to be held next Monday
evening at the offices.
A resolution thanking the people for
the splendid support of the movement
is to be considered by the Committee
on Resolutions, appointed at this week IS
meeting. A comprehensive report of
the various demands on the fund and
on how the campaign was handled by
the various committees will also be
made public within very few days.
"The committee is more convinced
than ever that the Kenosha Plan is the
only solution Of this tremendous prob
lem y, said one member Of the commit
tee at the close Of the meeting Monday.
THE multiplicity of demands upon Ke-
nosha for funds shows the wisdom of
n systematic method of collection and
disbursement. The many pitiful and
urgent demands for funds should have
the serious consideration of Kenosha
patriots. Many of these are, immedi-
ate and pressing and where possible
the committee would like to have as
many pledges as possible paid promptly
and in full and where this ID not nos.
sible to have regular monthly pledges
paid promptly. If it were not for the
efficient system which we have in on.
GRAFTON now, do not see how we could
hope to do our part in safeguarding
the men who are fighting for us. -

VILLA ATTACKS
CHIHUAHUA CITY
Loses 500 in Prisoners and
$50 in Killed and Wounded
in Futile Attempt.
MEN FLEE IN DISORDER

Chihuahua City, March 3l.-Fran-
cisco Villa, at the head of cavalry
force OF $500 men, made determined
attempt today to capture Chihuahua
City, but was driven back with the
loss of 500 prisoners and $50 in killed
and wounded.
The attack, which had been ex-
pected by the garrison, was launched
at $50 o'clock this morning in the
direction of Quinta Carolina, north Of
the city, and spread rapidly to the
Santa Nino railway station. the store
houses OF the Pierce Oil company.
and the abandoned city cemetery.
From an order of the day found on
a prisoner, Villas expeditionis shown
to have numbered $500 men. all cav
airy, which was only half the size
of the defending Carranza forces,
whose losses in dead and wounded
amounted to the comparatively small
number of l20 men.
The Carranza officers here do not
assert that the victory was decisive,
although it caused the enemy to flee
in disorder.
Villa was reported to be in personal
command of the attack, but remained
at a safe distance from the scene Of
fire.
Villas men were we'll provided with
ammunition, but lacked food and
clothing and suffered on the battle
field from need of water, as all of the
streams are dry at this season of the

diaeval character in the music"
brought a great deal of pleasure and
enjoyment The four movements are
connected by the episodes OF the bal.
lad, and work up to dramatic and
ghoulish climax in the closing one.
The "Andante Quasi Larghetto" is
full of amorous suggestion, the IA
miliar March a brilliant and most
melodious portion, was given a broad
climax and vital performance, while
the ghostly suggestions in harmonies
and woodwinds in the last movement
quite thrilled with their unearthllness,
Gained at last by the closing chant.
In the absence of program notes Mr.
Damrosch told the story of this bal
lad of the maiden whose lover went
off to the war. When his regiment re-
turned he was not there, but that
night his ghost came to her window.
and calling her to mount ghostly
horse, he rode with her to the grave
yard, where they, horse and all, leaped
into all open grave. while ghostly
voices chanted for the safety of their
souls, as the earth closed over them.
After this terrifying musical expert
ence, /the soothing breadth of the
Bach "Air on the G string" which
most effectively featured the excellent
tone OF the first violin section, was
welcome contrast and its playing a
great credit to the artistic skill of the
entire string choir A we'll known and
straightforward Gavotte by the same
composer was also played by the
string choir with broad tone, vivid
rhythms and atmospheric sincerity.
Other orchestral numbers were the
prelude to "Lohengrin," by Wag-
ner; "Roumanian Rhapsody No. H.
by Encsco, a big, fiery work, full Of
color, and folk-tune suggestions, with
many novel orchestral combinations,
and flashing strongly with rhythms.
Among the encores given by the or
chestra was an operate medley, and
at the last, "The Star-Spangled Ban
ner,' which received rousing cheers
and brought both orchestra and audi
ence to their feet.
Efrem Zimbalist, the soloist, gave
brilliant and clean-cut Interpretation
of the always welcome Concerto for
Violin with Orchestra" by Max
Bruch, obtaining a broad and singing
tone in the lovely Adagio, and strong
rhythmic swing and dazzling climaxes
in the finale ALLEGRO Energico). He
is a well equipped and assured violin
list and made a decided impression in
the concerto, responding after some
coaxing with "Orientale," by Cesar
Cu, also with orchestral accompani-
ment, which number is so pronounced
in coloring and atmospheric effect
that many would have liked it re-
peated, had Mr.. Damrosch consented.
Mr.. Damrosch conducts easily and
with definite musical intentions, and
he gains many and varied effects. His
orchestra is good one and it would
be nice to hear it oftener. H. NJ. r.

Damrosch Orchestra at Auditorium.

Omaha is growing into very en-
thusiastic city, if one is to judge by
the heartiness and duration of the ap-
plause in general at the recent mu-
steal attractions, and in particular at
the program given at the Auditorium
last evening by the Symphony So
ciety of New York with Walter Dam
rosch conductor. Prolonged enthusi-
asm prevailed after each number, and
the audience, which was of very fair
proportions, listened attentively and
interestedly throughout The Audi
forum presented most attractive
sight, decorated as it was with a vast
number of American flags, and with
one mammoth flag forming the back
ground behind the orchestra, while an
illuminated one hung at the front OF
the stage over the conductors stand.
Mr.. Damrosch and his orchestra are
becoming like old friends in Omaha,
having appeared here three successive
years, on their transcontinental tour
The orchestra, numbering eighty
pieces, is we'll balanced and capable
body, ready and able to interpret the
music in whatever manner the con-
ductor wills.
Last nights program was a con-
sentative one as to modern numbers.
1t has been quite a long time since
symphony No. 5, by Kaff. based
upon the ballad of "Lenore," has been
presented here, and its four widely
contrasted movements, all as Mr..
Damrosch said. maintaining a me-
