A total Of 1882 for the relief of
the poor family of father, mother
and four children who are about to
be forced out of their home because

of the $25 needed This amount,
however, will only square up the rent
and more than that is required 10 re

Another generation of gold hunt

About so years ago Gilbertsor
brought home from trip on the riy

Started a stampede for the river

His secret died with him. Few
secrets ever are Of value to their pos

JOINT RECITAL
PLEASING EVENT

Several hundred music lovers Of
the city were thrilled aud delighted
Sunday afternoon at the joint recital
of Miss Melva Clark, of Americus,
and Miss Pauline Schaadt, of Allen
town, Pa, at the Rylander theater
at a o'clock. Miss Clark sang and
Miss Schaadt performed on the pipe
organ as we'll as accompanying Miss
Clark on organ and piano.
M SIS Clark was in excellent voice
and was heard in a variety of songs,
her first being haydn's with Yer
dure Clad" from the oratorio, "The
Creation" This tuneful old gem was
followed by Cycil Scot.'s lullaby and
Ronald's prelude, "a Hymn to Life. )"
Three typical Tirendelli songs, Love
and Faith" Hymn to Love-" and
Rapture" concluded her assortment.
She was heartily applauded, and full
filled the hopes and expectations of
her most ardent admirers, Of whom
there are many in her home city.
Miss Schaadt demonstrated her
mastery at the organ in her opening
number by Bach, and the Sixth SON
alta by Mendelssohn, which, however,
were not as tuneful as later numbers
and therefore lacked the same
popular appeal Beethoven's delight
ful minuet in G was exquisitely dain-
ty in her handling, and was followed
by the ever-popular and ,melodious
Traumerei, Zitterbert's Romance"
and Hollins' Intermezza followed in
this group. Wagner's majestic Tam
hauser march was listened to atten-
lively, and the American Rhapsody,
by Yon, with which she closed, prov
ed a fitting finale for the afternoons
program. As the great organ burst
into the "Star Spangled Banner" the
audience arose and as the last notes
died away filed out.
