Triumph Scored
By Sousa's Band
In Concert Here
"March King" Compositions
Win Hearty Applause From
Packed House Encore
Exceed Selections.
Omahins' 'regard for Sousa and
Jlis band was displayed Wednesday
evening at the Municipal auditor
ium when the audience filled the
' building and cheered the "Mach
King" to the echo.
The tired business man was there
In vast number, enjoying the pro
gram and the innumerable encores to
the fullest. In fact, there were more
extras than there were scheduled
selections, for each of the latter
brought two or rr.ore encores. These ,
were usually favorite Sousa ,
marches, and frequently the first !
. a. .1 j
ipplause which accorded recognition
3f the piece.
Sousa is the samk gentlemanly,
polished band leader he has proved .
to be in past visits," and his band is
a large and carefully selected body
of players, including a splendid choir
pf brasses, woodwinds of excellent
quality Tmd drummers of versatility.
The clalrlnets and woodwinds
found many opportunities in the new
'Suite," "Camera Studies," composed
by Mr. Sousa, consisting ' of two
graceful and ono humorous number,
and in a musically interpreted 'ar
rangement of the "Andante Canta
bilc" from the string quartet by
Tschaikowsky.
Marches Inspire Enthusiasm.
The brasses, naturally had
star parts in the irresistible
inarches of tho famous leader,
and ihe v new march, "Com
rades of the Legion," "Whose's Who
in Navy EJueJ' "Field Artillery,"
and many others of the extras in
spired the listeners to rousing en
thusiasm. ' The Rhapsody, "The American
Indian," by Orem, built upon themes
recorded and suggested by Thurlow
Lieurance, and the "Dale Dances of
Yorkshire," both had much distinc
tive characters.
Miss Mary Bakt-r. the possessor W
the powerful voice of lovely quality,
prejenfed. two attractive solos, and
Miss Florence Hardeman won two
encores with her brilliant and fiery
interpretation of the showy First
movement froni the F sharp minor
Concerto by Vieuxfemps. .
Cornetlst Wins Applause.
Mr. John Dolan, vcornetist.. is a
master of all the difficult feats pos
sible on hisr instrument, and . the ac
curacy of tone, fluency of irunning
passages, and careful phrajsing he
achieved mark lim as on of the
greatest in his 1-ne. His solo was
musically presented, and an encore
added.
- Mi. George J. Caey, xylophone
player, dazzled 'with his proficiency
in a. composition of his own, and
''Dardanella," plaved as an'encore.
The climax of the evening came
with the playing of the "Stars and
Stripes Forever;' when th flutes,
cornets and trombones marched to
the front of the stage for the; inspir
ing melody and red, white and blue
lights suddenly "bursi" into view on
the ceilinu of the Auditorium.

cording td the story despite the fact
that he had "gone- dumb."
This - man, at whom three shots
were fired one night in October, the
story declared, was Raymond Clark,
chief foreman of a gang of house
wreckers who were tearing down
the Stock Exchange annex. Clark,
it continues, is a "Brindell lieuten
ant," though employed by a firm
of building contractors. -
"Within the present week, the
story continued, the Evening World
has found two business men of high
standing to whom Clark told it the
afternoon of the explosion and to
whom he mentioned It again when
explaining to them the attempt to
assassinate him three weeks ago.
And so certain arc these two men of
the justification for Clark's frightened
silence that they would not talk to
the investigator at all until they had
a promise guaranteed by higher
authority than that cf the reporter,
that their names vould not be
published." v

It told of the circumstances sur

foreman was accompanied on the
night of October 1? by a foreman
subordinate, James Reilly Coming
out of the garar.e" at Reilly's Long
Island City nom whtre it was quite
dark, the two were confronted with-
out warning by three strangers, one
of whom asked:
"Which of you is Reilly?"
"I'm Reilly was the reply of the
assistant foreman.
"Then you are Clark?" sharply in
terrogated the first speaker. -
"I'm Clark," answered the man
who had repeated the tale of the cart
driver. " . . '

Launches Into Sarcasm.
Rosenblum in his arguments
launched into sarcasm over the many
visits of Kent to the Boeke home on
Friday, July 23, the day of the al
leged birth of the twins.
"All of these visits and all this
trouble just to give a girl an ordi
nary bit of medicipe for what he
says was an ordinary stomachache,"
Rosenblum said.
"Stomachache, gentlemen of the
jury, is consistent with the nature of
the clothes on tne tJoetce ciotnes-
line that day. the nature of than
which was found buried in the rear
of the, Boeke home in a newspaper
bearing the date of July 23. Tho:e
thinge don't go vith stomachace."
"And remember that Kent doesn't
deny an iota of our testimony, ex
cepting that part which incriminates
him. He couldn t do it.
Rosenhhim stressed the last-min-
liifc tpetimnnvinf the Drosecutionby
fectionery store at Ihirty-tnjra ana
California was darkened at 8 o'cloclc.
, Ridicules Kent Claim.
"Why," he asked, "would it bs
necessary for a woman with an ordi
nary stomacnacne to uc
the home of mm. Anders
a nervous breakdown if
nary stomachache to be removea xo
erson to avoio
the police,
endeavoring to find the mother,

"Why," he asked again, "should
an ordinary case of stomachache
ranse "Doc" Kent to leave his busi
ncss so many times that day, and yet
the sensation half, a block from Ins
store, which drew people to the well
like flies by the hundreds, didn't at
tract this one man, who said he didn't
co wear the well because of busi
ness?" v. '
In closing Rosenblum cautioned:
"Don't be moved to sympathy by
the gray-jstreaked beard of that man
over there. You don't know what is
behind that beard and hidden in the
recesses of that mind."
The iace of "Doc" Kent didn't
move a muscle Ss Eugene O'Syllivan,
his one hope against spending his
last years behind the bleak walls of
state prison at Lincoln, arose.
But the face of LouiselBocke took
on color and continued to take qn
sunshine as O'Sullivan began pick
ing loop holes in the prosecution.
O'Sullivan described in' detail the
situation of the home occupied by
'.Mrs. Mary McElheny, the next door
neighbor to the Boeke's, whose testi
mony he said was star testimony
of the prosecution. O'Sullivan said
the. rear of the McElhenny home
was almost in line with the front
of the Boeke home.

O'Sullivan .said.
"That wouWthrow her at least 30

would put the wall of her home' be

front of the Boeke home and put the
wall of the Boeke home and her own

Boeke home.
"Yet," shouted O'Sullivan, "this

Then, O'Sullivan described Mrs.
McElheny as a woman who had de
fied law and society and read ex
cerpts from testimony relative to
her past life. Part of the questions
Mrs. McElheny refused to answer.
Concluding Testimony,
The prosecution this morning
placed Mrs. Emma Flias, 2.414 Nonkh
Sixtieth street, on the stand.
She testified that she was working
in the California ipharmacy, ' across
the street from Kent's confectionery
store at Thirty-third and California
streets, on July 23 and was alone ex
cepting for John Rinn and Harold
Houston, 11-year-old aoda fountain
and'delivery boys.
She testified that one of the boys
remarked that "Doc's place was
closed," -and they all lookedsat the
clock and it was 8.
This substantiated the testimony
of the two boys yesterday afternoon
and concluded the prosecution.

U.S. for Defeat in
World Struggle
Ludendorff, Ilindenburg and
P Others Write History of War,
Entitled "Unconquered
In the Field."
, By GEORGE SELDES.
ST.w York TinKM-rhlrafo Tribune Cable.

Berlin,. Nov. 11. Coincident with
Germany's celebration of the arm
istice anniversary and the revival of
the question "who won th war,"
with Germany's answer "we were not
defeated, our civilian population lost
its morale." there appeared this
week, a-pretentious war history, to
which Hmdenberg. Luxlendorff and
a score of other leaders, have written
chapters. The history bears the title
"Unconquered in the Field"
This title aptly sums up the trend
of public opinion in Germany, which
first blamed the British blockade,
then the American participation, for
the dlfeat, but now takes the pre
armjstice view, thatthe crumbling
climax of which was the Novemberl
9 revolutionary outbreak, and not the
fresh American army, overwhelming
artillery and continued allied offen
sives, was responsibly for it.
Recently I put the question to
Field Marshal Hindenburg himself.
At the very beginning of-the inter
view he said, ''what shaN I tell yeu?
That we were defeated in :he field is
a question beyound doubt, but my
men fought to the last day as brave-ly-as
ever, without losing courage or
morale." 'I i
"What actually led to Germany's
defeat?" I asked.
"Twc things," replied Hinden
burg. "First, it was impossible 'for
us fo win after 1918, on account, of
the British blockade, as otir sharpest
submarine warfare failed to relieve,
our,fdod requirement. Second, it
was the arrival of American troops
which broke ' the west f rout' dead
lock, added overwhelming power to
the allies and made possible their
winning of the war. American at
tacks in the Argonne, our main line
of retreat, when we were shortening
the line in Belgium and northern
France, actually won the war." -
Of course these facts are known
in German military circles, but the
general public is either ignorant of,
or does not want to know about
them.

American Legion to
Urge Better Method
Of Curing Wounded
Lincoln, Nov.' 11. (Special.) "If
the American Legion does nothing
else the commg year but consider
the problem of the disabled veterans
with the idea of bringing about a
more successful method of taking
care of them, it w'll be doing a great
service," said Frank, B. O'Donnell,
state adutant of the legion, who re
turned from a conference at Indian
apolis. Ihe country, and especially Lali-
'fornia, Colorado and some other
western states, is full of veterans
suffering from tuberculosis and other
lung diseases and in many cases not
even able to find places to sleep.
Soldiers suffering from -shell shock
are confined in insane asylums with
patients who arey ncurable and no
particular attention paid to them,
said Mr. O'Donnell.-
According to Mr. O'Donnell this 1
is not caused by lack of interest by
the people, but by stupidity on the
part of government officials, who
have provided insufficient means for
the care of the men who have been
made physical wrecks because of the
war. - , ,
