One lady, who has in the past heard Paderewski, insisted that Prof. Magendanz had the same delicate touch and the exquisite rendition of the great Paderwski, and was equally as good, and she has heard many cele brated pianists as well. A lover of violin music and knows what the music on that means in its best sense claimed that of Prof. Stechele to be the equal of any violin artist he ever heard, while musicians especially conversant with the vocal kind, gave as good word for Prof. Movius, who gave evidence of a thorough student of voice culture. While the concert in all its parts was of the very best art could produce it is certainly not speaking the very best for the many who failed to hear it, as the audience was comparilively small, where a crowed house should have greeted the musicians. Some fifty to seventy-five turned out Tuesday evening at the opera house to hear the first number of tlip Socialist lecture course and Rev. Fred J. Warren of North Platte elucidate the tenants of that political party. The gentleman was a very fluent talker and received the most respect ful attention of all present as he ex pounded the good the party proposed doing, informing his audience that there was one to come after him who would give the remedies for existing conditions, he only sttrring up senti ment over the awful competitive conditions of the day, paying his re specie to tne capitalistic system ana the preachers, editors and other ed ucators of the day who looked more to the almighty dollar, their salaries and perquisites than they did to the humanitarian standpoint. Rev. War ren, like all Socialists speakers, we have heard retailed and detailed the worst conditions that exist today, claiming Socialism as the panacea for all ills, which would stop the war of competition and make of all men one common brother-hood, give every man a job ana put to work the mil lions or less who are today cathaul ing for each others’ Jobs like animals confined in a pen which ended in the stronger overcoming the weakv Just how the conditions could be improved to gi ve all who now Itave work and add to the Itst all those out of work, would be interesting to know, bat as tire old time populist, who was never able to get a dollar ahead, was able to talk volulabl / of bow to finance the country, just so’ perhaps, our Socialist friends may be able to tell us how to make two apples grow where one grew before. The next lecture will be on March 19th by Dr. W. T. Jeffries, who will take up the cures for the ills advanced by the above speaker. Lost Lost Pocketbook—Containing some few dollars, by Mrs. R. H.
