' SAENGERFEST WINS OUT FINANCIALLY Larg-e Sum to Be Cleared Abore All Expenses Huge Attendance Makes the Money. t UEXT MEET AT KANSAS CITY Kansas City will be the meeting place of the next national saenger fest. In July. 1817. The present saengerfest has been so successful that It will yield a profit of about $4,000 over and above all expenses. These two important facts became known Friday. It will be the first time in all the history of the saengerbund that Kan sag City has succeeded in getting the national saengerfest. The financial success of the present fest waa the occasion of much jubilation among the directors and the local com mittee. These men have worked untiringly day and night for months and feel a natural pride and elation at the successful fruition of their efforts. Attendance Make lor Saeeeee. The musical succ.ss of the big affair was assured at the two tremendous Thursday concerts. Ita financial success adds another victory to the successful record of the local Qerman-Amerlcen singers. For the saengerfeat held here In 1910 waa also a financial as well aa a musical success, clearing about (3.000 above all expense. "The actual expense for our muato alone was about $15,000 said Peter Laux, one of the directors of the local association and chairman of the muslo committee. "Thla Includes payments to the orchestra and soloists and rent of tbe Auditorium." From this some Idea can be seeured of the magnitude of the saengerfeat propo sition. , Delighted with Omaha. . Mr. Laux voiced the universal delight of the alngera and visitors with their re ception In Omaha. "They can't say enough," he asserted, "about the hospital ity of Omaha and their fine entertainment here. They are delighted. The weather has been so good. too. Five years ago we had clear weather, but It waa awfully hot. This year It has not been hot." The time of visiting and good fellow ship has been extended to Include Bunday aa well as Saturday. Thla morning there Is to be a big parade. The afternoon and evening will be devoted to a grand plonio at the Ger man home and park, 4403 South Thirteenth, street. Sunday there will be a special festival and reunion at tho German home and park.

First Director Kelbe drilled the mass male chorus In the songs to be rendered at this even ing's concert. Then Director Reese took the stand and drilled the chorus of the Nebraska Raengerbund In the songs of the afternoon. The soloists came on for their final rehearsals. And through !t all the orchestra worked. Prof. Reese worked In his shirtsleeves and mopped the perspiration from his brow from time to time. When Henri Scott came up he took off hie light coat and appeared In the coolness of his tan shirt, soft collar and green tie. cott Is the personification of good nature. He smiled upon the tnuslrlanst he shook hands with Frof. Reese; he had a copy of a noon newspaper In his hand, and at times In the midst of his song ha would read from it Singing seemed the easiest thing In the world for the great basso. At the end of hi gong there was ap plause from the few onlooker Mr. 8cot made a mock bow. As he left the platform he met Mmj Marie Rappold-Berger. He shook hand) with her and did a final bit of opersj bouffe by kissing her hand with great ceremony. Then he came and sat In the Auditorium and gathered about him a crowd of Greek and Italian "newsies," who were selling German newspapers at I cents each, and almost producing a panto In newsboy circles with this get-rlch-qulck scheme. Mr. Scott showed them various wondera that he had In hla pockets. Oh, a Jolly dog Is Henri Scott. Irene theas loie Back. Helps Kldneya.
