Before the curtain rose Dr. Barr made a ten minute talk in which he spoke of the next attractive number of the course which will be on next Friday evening, as, Jas. E. Watson of Indiana, the governor nominee of In diana this term. Dr. Barr spoke of Mr. Watson as an old college chum and spoke of him as one of the strong est lecturers today. He is a man well fitted to address an audience on what ever subject he might choose and all who were present at last evening's en tertainment were requested to be pres ent at this next number of the star course as a treat would be missed should one fail to ihear Mr. Watson. His theme will be chosen the even ing before he arrives in Keokuk and something out of the ordinary is prom ised in this line. When the curtain rose at 8:15 the ladies orchestra was seated on the etage. The instruments played by this wonderful ladies' orchestra are first and second violins, cornet, cello, piano, clarinet, trombone, base and snare drums. Each one taken sepa rately would be an evening of the most enjoyable knd of entertainment by itself. The first number on the) program was given by the full orcthes-1 tra and was a march which was heart-' ily reeived by the large audience. As a second number a melody in was played and was a charm of the mu elclan's art. The third number wrr- a trombone solo by Mr. Runner of the company in which .he played "Rocked in the Cradle of the Deep," and as an encore he kindly consented to play,: "I Wish I Had a Girl," and which' sounded rather peculiar as. to title as there were seven charming ladies on the platform at the time he played this piece.,and he need not lack for a girl- This wis followed by a selection from "Carmen," by the orchestra in full and was beautifully rendered.

The solos rendered were "The Gypsy Trail," "Love Has Wings" and the encore, "The Little Iris.- Girl." An orchestral selection, "Tae Blue and the Gray," was then rendered by the musical company and was follow ed by another reading by Miss Da vault. Miss Whlston, the fine violinist of the company is in possession of one of the finest violins In the world and has refused offers of a thousand dol-! lars for the instrument from which she draws such cnarming music. Four violin solos were rendered as the next number on the program and were especially beautiful because of the fact that Miss Whlston Is one of the best solo and orchestra workers in the country today. She started studying the instrument when but seven years of age and is a wonderful prodigy of the instrument. Encores greeted this number and the vast audi ence s.howed its appreciation of Miss Whiston's work by calling her out for the fourth time. The last number on the program and one of the best of the entertain ment was a selection by the orchestra, Miss Mae H. Taylor the clarinetist! of the company is a cousin to William H.

SATURDAY, NOV. 14,1908 H. S. OFF TO (IKY AT 8.40 The Team Left This Morning With Manager Vestal and Coach Merrill Accompanied by Rooters.' CONFIDENT OF VICTORY Quiricy Exchange Comments Favor ably on Keokuk Team and Are Not Sure of a Victory. This morning with Coach Merrill and Manager Vestal the K. H. S. team left for Qulncy on the 8:40 where this afternoon the local boys hope to de feat the Qulncyltes on their own grounds though the boys will have to play for their game. ,v With the team were a number of rooters among them Yellmaster Ed. Kledaisch, who will lead the rooters' bunch on the Qulncy field in shouting the boys to victory. Coach, manager and captain were optimistic this morn ing as to a victory as were the mem bers of the team who are confident that they will return victors on the 7:20 this evening. A number of the boys will remain over in Qulncy to visit and will return to this city to morrow. Captain Parsons will be seen at full back in the game at Qulncy this after noon, this change being made on ac count of McFarland being out of the game with an Injury to his knee which has bothered him for the past two years, having had It Injured two years ago playing full back. On the first game of the season, October 10th, with Quincy. neither side was able to defeat the other aiid the score for the two halves at the call of time was 5 to 5. gk. A Quincy exchange has the following to say of he Gate City team A Good Notice. The fact that the team held Car thage to a 9 to 0 score on the Car thage grounds, where the Qulncy team was defeated two weeks ago 22 to 11. shows that the Gate City eleven is not so slow nor so weak as the Ottumwa-Keokuk scores seem to indicate. Ottumwa has a team of champions, and no doubt would be able to defeat Quincy, Carthage or •Jacksonville nearly as badly as Keo kuk. Burlington won by just one point, and in the game played last Saturday at Keokuk, Ottumwa made .iust about half as many points as in the first game, besides finding it ut terly impossible to prevent the Keo kukians scoring. The lineup of the K. H. S. at Quincy today is: Horn, center: Bickle and Nelson, guards Melnhart, Lewis and Hawkes, tackles Hayden and Weis man, ends Peclistein, quarterback: Duncan and McManus, half backs, and Capt. Parsons, fullback: iii Game at Warsaw/" An amateur team from this city left for Warsaw today to play football with an aggregation in that city. Those who will compose the Keokuk team are as follows: Leasum, center: Drowning and Spaan. guards Wyckoff and D. McGrat.il, tackles R. McGrath and Riley McManus, ends Tom Mc Manus, quarter Bowlby and Devero, halves Breitenstein, fullback. Man ager Edwards of the Warsaw team promises the,boys some lively playing on their grounds today. ATTEMPT MURDER IN COURT ROOM (Continued from page 1.) Knormous crowds waited all night! about the bulletin boards of the news papers discussing in threatening tones, the cause and effect of the shooting. A strong cordon of police are about the jail to prevent any attempt on the life of the assailant of the dar hig prosecutor. The citizens 1- gue, the one prime mover of the prosecu tion of Ruef apd ills cotorie of city officials took Initial steps today by is suing a call for a mass meeting of cit izens for tonight. At this meeting the Probable outcome of the trial will be discussed from every possible stand point. Preparations have been made to offset any serious tangle that may lesult and prevent the tense situation. Hiram Johnson, a towering figure in the legal profession of the Pacific coast and Mat Sullivan, one of the 'est known criminal lawyers have stepped into the breach, dedicating themselves to Heney's unfinished work. Ruef is Cringing. Ruef crouches in his cell, desperate between fears of future prosecution and probable violence at the hands of unpry citizens who refuse to believe Politics are not behind the shooting. The bar association and citizen's one of the most prominent civic Institutions of the coast met today and passed resolutions of sympathy which may plan a campaign for the assistance of masterful legal minds w.Uo iiavc taken up the cudsels laid down by the stricken Heney. District Attorney Langdon leaves no doubt of his state of mind that "hired press" is lesponsible for the conditions which' made possible the shooting of the prosecutor. While a state of riot pre-1 vails in the cafes, boulevards, and business houses, Heney is at the hos-! pltal attended by sympathetic men. Often during the night he awakened and kept predicting that he will re cover and continue the fight against the ring. Physicians are confident of Ilency's recovery.
