IN CASPER

More than 5000 people have
enjoyed the six concerts given

day in celebration of Music

universal appreciation. The free
concerts here have attracted
packed houses every day. and the

to the efforts of the participating
artists. The best in amateur and
professional ranks among the
local musicians have been heard
during the various concerts as
we'll as outside artists, and the
event has served to bring before
the Casper public the almost I'M
limited talent along these lines
which the city possesses.
Mrs. B. f. Klein. Mrs. Madeline
Treber and the others who ar
ranged the series of concerts, the
artists who gave their time and
energy and the management OF

The same spirit that the French
breathed and lived when they shouted

upon Verdun. brought Criqui through
a most convincing and pleasing VIC

For four rounds Criqui was taunt-

NO KICK, SAYS
SMITH Of WIRES
ON WET ACTION
Governor Announces He Has
Had Congratulation Mes
sages From Whole U. S.
BY p. b. SCOTT,
United Press Staff Correspondent.

ALBANY. N. Y, June "A boy
from New York city's Oliver street,
who grew up to be governor" stood
in the spotlight Of the prohibition
stage tonight and refused TO vince.
The hero of 1.-THE sidewalk. OF New
York" his campaign song. declared
he felt like n new man after having
signed the Mullan-Gage repeater to
the state dry enforcement law.
He professed satisfaction over the
way the court responded to his act.
His secretary said Smith received hun
dreds of kilograms congratulating him
for his act, and declared the wires
contained no ensure
The messages came from all parts
of the union, the division being equal
between those within the state and
those from out OF the state. The send
ers ranged from bankers to wage
carners. Half a dozen came from
points in California. and others from
Texas. and other states west of the
Mississippi. In fact, the only part
of the United States not represented
in the kilograms was the outlying pos
sessions.
The governor came to his office at
IL o'clock today n Immediately set
tied down to cleaning up the remain
ing 30-day bills awaiting his action.
Shortly before 3 o'clock he sent for
several newspapermen who were his
personal friends. and discussed his
action with them.
He was obviously pleased that no
word of criticism had been received
in his office. He read the kilograms
when they were received, sometimes
grabbing the envelope from his sec
retaries hands before the latter had
time to open It.
We'll" he said, when the last
batch was delivered to him at 5
o'clock, there ought to be a kick In
this bunch"
But there wasn't.
Efforts to induce him to make pub
lie the contents of the messages We're
futile. He held they were personal
and 1t would not be fair to the senders
to release the texts.
The governors action on the re-
pealer was the chief topic of CONVEX
sation at the capitol today. Few
there were who could be found who
would venture to predict the conse
quences OF his approval on any poll
teal ambitions the governor might
have. Some held that II he had an
eye on the presidency his action
would be sure to cost him the ap-
proval of the western states and
many of the southern states.
NEW YORK. June 2.-The expect
ed tidal wave of booze, looked for as
a result Of Governor Al Smiths ac-
ton repeating the state enforcement
law, failed to materialize mere today.
Police said they had received no
official notice that the state dry law
had been wiped from the statute
books and declared they would con
tinue to arrest all violators until they
were given orders to the contrary.
Reports wero that a swarm of
federal dry agents was ready for
descent or Broadway. They are be
ing rounded up in all sections OF the
country where they best can be
spared to take up the work where
state n municipal agents leave off.
