WJiil« the object o f the company furnishing t h e « pictures fo r exhibition is to make « l a s for the furnishing of pictures such as are required for a standard school, the movement is none the less educative and commendable on that account. Those who were at the corn show here last Saturday had an opportunity to see the full exhibit which Miss Ijund has been packing over the county at no small inconvm- ience to herself. To bring good pic tures and show what art really is to people who have scant opportunity to enjoy such semes is worthy o f all praise.

Attorney The Bart Concert Ever Judge John & Coke Monday ap pointed Dwight E. Bodge, a Marsh field attorney, as special prosecutor to assist the Coos county grand jury in investigating Coes cqpnty affairs. He will take ap his new duties st onso and work in conjunction sritiT J. W. irgoson, « p e r t accountant and former insurance commissioner, who on that day started auditing tip books. The appointment of Mr. Ho^ge as special prosecutor was based on the fact tlp t the investigation is to cover a period o f six years, if found neces sary. Two years of this time was during the incombency of John F. Hall, now district attorney, as county judge, which disqualified him from aiting and necessitated the appoint ment by Judge Coke. In making the appointment Judge Coke announced that the compensation of Mr. Hodge would be fixed by the court later. Lewis, the prominent Welsh who has bean heard la concert in aU the leading cities o f the coun try, is to be hare Monday, March 10, at the head o f his own company, ap pearing on the Lyceum course. Mr. Lewis has undoubtedly one of the fin est tenor voices o f the younger gener ation o f singers, powerful in quality and glorious in its wine-warm tones. To his almost perfect technical finish is added a power of interpretation ir- reastible in its appeal to audiences. And back o f bis deep, rich mellow tone», always controlled and disci plined, is a temperament and refine ment that stamps his work as of the highest character. Signor Saeerdote, Assistant Conductor o f the Chicago Grand Opera Company, says, “ Mr. Lewis has a voice of such luscious quality that he is able to sing any style of music.” Assisting artists wrth the Welsh tenor are; Ruth Lavery, the Chicago violinist, who last year was awarded the first prize in the violin contest by the Associated Musical Clubs o f Illi nois; Irene Harruf, accompanist and pianist, whose charm and musical ability have given her a permanent place in concert work; and Amber Hopkins, whose high attainments as an entertainer make friends for her everywhere. This is a $160 attraction, the high est priced ever brought here.
