HAVE PLAYED FDR THE KING. -- Director, a Former Master of Cres tore'*—There Are Graduates From the Royal Conservatory in Naples, the Well Known Royal Corservatory in Naples. If there can be said to be a featur ing of any one thing in the Chautau qua program to be here this summer, it certainly is in the musical offer ings There will be five companies on this five-days' program. And that !s unusual. The average old Chautauqua program would string along for a week or ten days with but three or four musical companies, because each one was contracted for three or at least two days. Our Chautauqua is going to have variety, and there is no question about that. a amerent musical company eacn day. And often the appearance of these musical companies is only a half of the afternoon's or evening’s pro gram. The program usually runs something like this; Afternoon, prelude. So-and So Concert Company; lecture or en tertainment, So-and-So Lecturer or Entertainer. And the evening pro-* gram in the same order, with a differ ent offering. There are nine distinctly different attractions at least. Hut referring again to the music. The big attraction in music, of course, Is the band from Italy. The Imperial Guards is not the largest band in America. That is not claimed, even by the most enthusiastic of Chautauqua supporters. But it is claimed most persistently that the Im perial Guards is an organization ol very celebrated musicians—men of wide fame in tfcetr own country. It is a band of soloists. The organizer, Victor, the great New York musical organizer, has built this band on the theory that quality in the character of work would be emphasized rather than the number of men. and yet there has been no sacrificing of numbers. The Right Plan. It was the right plan. ■The band has been brought all the way from Venice ig Italy for this ten weeks' Chautauqua engagement. It is filling a ^eries of sixty-five engage ments In towns like ours—good, pros perous towns in Nebraska, Kansas and South Dakota. Most towns in this list have bands of their own. And there are a lot of fairly good bands in these towns. Why should a band be brought from Venice that is not better than all of these others put together? But this Is a better band. Why. the director of this band—he has a very difficult Italian name—was at one time the assistant director of Creator's band, recognized everywhere as one of the largest and most cele brated bands in the world. This band director has played for the King of Italy—“a very great indeed honor,” as he proudly says. And the men playing with him in the Imperial Guards, have played in the King’s court on many a notable occasion, in a land In which music—and pa-ticu larly band music—is & recognized pro fession. There are graduates In this band of the Royal Conservatory at Naples, and *hat means fifteen years of hard study, and it is the highest honor in musical scholarship in Italy. This is not an ordinary band that is eoming here to the Chautauqua this summer. There never was such a band in this city, and you'll be making a mistake If you miss hearing it. Some of the fifty men on the Red path-Horner Chautauqua tent crews are training for college athletics. They handle the big tents, drive stakes and put up canvas. They sell tickets at the gate and see tg the gen eral comfort of Chautauqua patrons. They are college men off on a vaca tion. They sleep in a tent within the Thautauqua enclosure, which they call the "dog” tent. Of course everyone supposes they lead a merry life, and it may l>e they do. With a playground expert from West Virginia in charge of the Junior Chautauqua, the boys and girls are promised a big time Chautauqua week. There will be a big crowd in to. j Chautauqua week. Get the Chautauqua season ticket today. At the Chautauqua we have the of ferings of a whole summer’s amuse ment park crowded into one week. And it is a better class of amusement than the big city offers. A thing that puts this city in th« class of progressive towns is the Chautauqua. I i _ I Republican County Convention The republican county convention was held in Loup City last Saturday for the purpose of electing delegates to the state convention and selecting a county central committee. The convention was called to order at 11 a. m., by County Chairman Wall and a temporary organization was effect ed by the election of Geo. W. Wolf chairman and J. W. Burleigh secre tary. A committee on credentials com posed of Aaron Wall, W. M. Hurlbert, and James McBeth was appointed and recess taken till one o'c.ock p. m. Convention was called to order at 1:15 and the credentials reported de legates present from the following townships: Clay, C. W. Burt, J. A. Peugh. Jas. McBeth, and Fred John son: Harrison, F. F. Richmond, G. W. Wolf, W. M. Hurlbert, V. Engleman, A. E. Marsh, E. S. Chipps and J. C. Wall: Loup City, J.W. Burleigh, C. H.JFrench, S. A. Allen, J. S. Pedler, W. I>. French, R. P. Starr, ^ Aaron Wall, C. E. Lundy, T. A. Taylor, L. Bechthold, A. J. Johnson, O. L. Swan son, L. A. Williams, F. M. Henry. A. B. Outhouse, L. Hansen and C. C. Carlson: Rockville, M. Wizorek, Ben Von Krosigb, Emil Cords and John Hehnke: Logan, E. E. Tracy, and Wm. George: Webster, W. Hawks and S. S. Reynolds. The matter of the resignation of T. Hermanson of Kearney as candi date for state senator, on account of leaving this district for a home in the west, coming up for hearing and ree ommendation of the convention being asked as its choice for a candidate to succeed him, the selection of such man by law being left to the chair man of the county central committees of this senatorial district, the con vention recommended the candidacy of R. P. Starr of Loup City, as its choice of candidate for above office, and so recommended to tbe chairman for their reconsideiation. The following gentlemen were unanimously chosen for the coming year as our county central committee; Aaron Wall, chairman; Oak Cieek, Mike Kominski: Logan, J. Q. Pray: Washington, L. W. Callen; Elm, Adam Zalin; Webster, Fred Pinchney; Loup City, H. S. Nightingale; Ashton, A. Wanek; Rockville, Ben Von Kroseigh; Clay, James McBeth; Harrison, Geo. W. Wolf; Scott, John Witt; Hazard. Walter Fletcher; Bristol, Wm. Jacobs, Sr. There being no further busines be fore the convention, adjournment sine die was taken. Democratic Gounty Convention Our unterritied democrats of Sher man county met in convention in Loup City last Friday afternoon and selected seven delegates to the dem | ocratic state convention, to be held in Grand Island the 30th of July, as follows: Henry Beck, E. Dwehus, S. S. Polski, C. p. Beusehausen, R. H. Mathew-, Hiyn» and Hans Johnson. The convention was a warm Bryan output, and some democrats, who were not in attendance claimed the Bryan steam roller worked with such smoothness that they did not hear it coming till after the caucusses. hence could not be present to be mashed flat, as they undoubtedly would have been had they put on their lighting togs and got into action, as the Bry anites had the roller in perfect run ning order. They also selected the follow ing county central committee: C. F. Beushausen, Chairman; Oak Creek, Rensei Rewolinski: Logan, Wra. Jung: Washington. A. E. Charl ton: Elm, R. E. Dale: Webster, J. A. Mcllravy; Loup City, R. H. Mathew: Ashton, S. S. Polski: Rockville, E. Dwehus; Clay, Albert Snyder; Har rison, C. C. McCormick: Scott, J. J. Else; Hazard, John Beockiug: Bristol, Mike McKime. HERMANSON OUT OF RACE Word w as received here last week that Mr.T. Hermanson, who was nom inated at the late primaries as candi date for state senator from this dis triat, had tendered his resignation as such candidate, as he was about to move to the Paciiic Coast. Mr. Her manson has for several years been the official stenographer for Judge Hos tetter. and genuine regret will be ex pressed over both facts—his resigna tion from the senatorial race and his proposed removal from this district and from the state, as he has proven one of the most popular of men in [ his official position which has placed him within the knowledge and gained the warm friendship of a large num ber of our people. It is to be hoped he may prosper in every way over his removal to the far west. A Judge Gaslin Story A Lincoln lawyer says the political squabble reminds him of an incident which occurred many years ago in the court presided over bv the late Judge Gaslin in one of the western counties of the state. A criminal case was on trial and the attorney for the defendent was making his argument to the jury. The judge with his back to the jury was looking out of a window, appar ently paying no attention to the ar gument. Presently an altercation arose between the attorneys during which uncomplimentary epithets were passed. Suddenly the judge wheeled about in his swiyeled chair, hit the desk a resounding blow and shouted, ”Sit down! I never heard such a hell of a row In my life: neither of you fellows know what you are talking about .and I don’t either.” STILL VOTING R. R. BONDS Several More Localities Give _ Overwhelming Majorities for the New North and South Road Last Tuesday special elections were held at Franklin for the purpose of determining whether bonds should be issued by that city in support of the new north and south railroad and the vote was overwhelming in favor of the bond issue of $10,000. The vote in favor of the bonds was 197 to 33 against. At Beloit a special election was held the same day and the vote in favor of the bond issue was about as unani mous as it was at Franklin, the vote in favor of the issuance of $20,000 was 251 to U0 against. So far as our knowledge extends there has not been a single failure in securing an overwhelming majority in favor of granting bond aid for this road wher ever asked along the proposed line. ( BOOSTER TRIPS Next Tuesday will be the first ef the booster trips of the Loup City Commercial Club and those citizens outside of the ciub. who have given subscriptions towards financing the Harvest Festival, to boost the Festi val. The trip will be made with auto mobiles. taking in Ord, Sargent, Comstock and Arcadia, returning home in the evening. The start will be made from Loup City at 7 a. m. sharp, and some thirty-five autos have been engaged to carry the boosters, some ninety odd in number. The second trip will come off Thursday following, with the same number of autoes and people and a 7 o'clock in the morning start. The second trip will take in Ashton. Rockville. Ra venna, Sweetwater, Hazard and Litch field. All those intending to go with the boosters are w arned to be on hand at 7 o'clock a. m. sharp, or they may get left. The band will be taken along and several thousand tags will be distributed, besides plenty of lit erature. relating to the Harvest Fes tival. A great time is anticipated and a Whoop-'er-Up crowd wilt ui«ke big advertising for the coming big Harvest Festival. __ . __ U. P. to Build from Hast ings to Gibbon . It is announced in Thursday morn ing papers that the U. P. w ill build from Hastings to Gibbon, a company having been incorporated under the name of the Hastings and North western Railroad Co., with A. L. Mohler. W. B. Scott, R. L. Huntly and other prominent Union Pacific officials as the incorporators. The new line will form a short-line con nection between the U. P., and the Grand Island and St. Joseph line, and the effect will be to divert a good deal of business from Grand Island, where the junction is now maintained. Obituary. Kristina Victoria Kron, wife of E. T. Kron, died suddenly Saturday, the 29th, and was buried Sunday, the interment being made in the Evergreen cemetery, Rev Blom con ducting the services, Mr. and Mrs. Kron came to Loup City in the spring of 1911, locating on a farm northwest pf town, where they have made their home ever since. Mrs Kron leaves a bereaved husband, an aged fattier and four brothers and sisters in Sweden, and a brother in this coun try. That the Kron family is highly esteemed by neighbors and friends was manifest at the funeral, there being a large attendance and a liberal floral offering. The profound sym pathy of the entire community goes with Mr. Kron to his home made deso late by the loss of his beloved wife. If you are interested in political speculation, here is an interesting problem: If Roosevelt goes through with his third party scheme and be comes its candidate, will he hurt Wilson or Taft most? There are several arguments to be presented on either side. If he and Wilson run as simon pure progressive candidates with Taft as the conservative candi date, will they not divide the progres sive vote and make Taft's election certain? Or will the progressives wait until it is seen whether Roose velt or Wilson develops the most strength and then vote largely for that man, who will undoubtedly be Wilson? Or will Wilson, holding the progressive democrats, be an easy winner because Roosevelt's candi dacy will deprive Taft of flie united republican support? Or will Wilson while running as a progressive, drive the conservatives of his party to Taft, thus overcoming the defection from the republican party due to either Wilson or Roosevelt’s appeals to the progressive republicans? Or are there so few conservatives left in the | country that if they do unite on Taft it will be Either Wilson or Roosevelt.
