SEItIINADED IW THE ORPHEANS ,
Shmortly after Mr. and Mrs , itosewater ,
the members of their family and a few in-
vlled guests had returned to the htoueuvater
resltiauce , they were visited by the numbers -
bers of time Orpheus Singing society. Fifty
shigers , led by President Charles Ilerbertz ,
Vice President Spitko , Secretary Mertens
and Trrasurcr A. C. Drelbus , went uD on
the lasvit surrounding the house and there
serenaded the recipient of so mammy honors
that had been expressed it other ways.
Three choruses ender the direct tor of ilans
Albert , numsical director of the society , were
rendered In an admirable mmnner and drew
forth much applause frmu the small crowd
of spectators , which had asseaibied to hear
the inpronmitu ) concert.
Immediately on the conclusion of the last
selection President ilerbertz stepped forward -
ward , and tai behalf of the Orpheus Singing
society congratulated Mr. Itosewater on time
marvelous success that had attended him
during tine last twenty.-five years. He spoke
of time great admiration for The Tice and Its
proprietor entertained by the German cR1-
zens and expressed the hope that they might
be able personally to congratulate the latter
on time celebration of the tlftieth anniversary
of its parer.
Mr. htosewater responded in a few well
ehoseu words. ITu sated that of nil the honors -
ors and coumrtesics tlmat ho hind received dur-
lng the day none had touched ] dm more
deeply than that just extended to hlm , lie
appreciated It all the more because ho be-
IlevCd that it cane right from the hearts
of the givers , Ile Inferred that too honor
w'as conferred upon him not only because
of time twenty-filth nhniv'esary of the cs-
lablishuterl of the paper of which he was
time proprietor , but because the members
of the society esteeneti the principles which
It hind au'aya been the policy of The lice
to advocato. He spoice of The Beo's fight
for the cause of personal liberty and stated
that It stood shoulder to shoulder with the
Gornman Journals 1n standing up for the
rights of time German citizens of Omaha ,
lie expressed the 1101)0 that he night meet
his serenade's again and with them recall
the memories of a pleasant evenhg. )
Mr , hlosewator then extended an invl-
tatiun to tie singers to coma wllhht his
hunto and pni'tnlce of sane refreshments ,
i'residmtt llorbertz , however , expressed the
fear that the singers would be intruding ,
