THE KREISER CONCERT
To listen to a Musical Treat.
The organ recital given by Edward Kreiser Thursday was fully up to the expectations of the people. The young musician showed the people of Lawrence a few things about the organ that they did not know before. Mr. Kreiser has lately returned from Paris where he has been studying in this line of music and his superior instruction as well as his natural talent was shown in his playing Thursday night. He manipulated the stops and the three key boards with a wonderful degree of dexterity only possessed by a master of the complicated instrument. His technique was very fine and showed the works of long practice and study. In working the pedals he showed wonderful proficiency, the pedal variations in one of the pieces being remarkably smooth and even. He was assisted by Prof. Farrell, comment on whose musical powers need not be given as everyone in Lawrence knows what a wealth of richness and fullness is contained in his voice. The audience showed it appreciation of his number by the encourses given both his numbers, only one of which was responded to. His performance only emphasized the fact that his voice has been vastly improved while in Europe. The first number on the program was "Tocata and Fugue in D minor" by Bach, the fugue especially being brilliantly executed. The second number consisted of two parts: "The Question" and "The Answer" by Wolstenholme. The themes of both these compositions were delightfully simple and masterfully amplified. This was one of the most thoroughly enjoyed numbers on the program. At the conclusion of "The Answer" he was vigorously encored and responded by playing a short but beautiful selection. Mr. Farrel next sang a Recitative and Aria from "Julius Caesar" by Handel and responded to a vigorous encore.
The Military March by Gound was a grand piece and put the audience in a good humor before going home. It served to leave pleasant memories in the minds of the audience. The concert was the best thing the town has heard for some time and those who did not hear it missed a rare treat.
Mr. Kreiser's next number was in three parts. "Lullaby," "A Shepherd's Tale," and "Narcissus," by Nevin. These pieces were arranged for organ by Mr. Kreiser and showed great skill. In the third port on "Narcissius" was familiar to all and therefore much enjoyed. In one place, however, where canonic imitation was brought in the effect of imitation was partly on account of several false notes struck. The variations on "The Star Spangled Banner," was very finely played and the pedal effects executed perfect, but to a great many of the audience the theme was completely buried in the voluminous chord and endless runs. The Sonota by Guilmant was a little long for the audience which showed its feeling by restlessly moving about. The composition was a wonderful air consisting of the introduction Allegro, Pastorale and Finale. The climax was grand and brilliant. The "Shadow Air" was a pleasant relief from the heavy work of Guilmant, it being light and simple. The next number by Mr. Farrel who sang three short songs with great feeling and accuracy. To these he was encored, but did not respond. The last three numbers of Mr. Kreiser's were much enjoyed. The Andantino by Lomé being rendered with great expression.
OUR OLD RIVAL BAKER.
BALL GAME WITH HER BERE ON TUEYDAY.
A Crowd of Baker Rooters Will Accompany the Team.
TUESDAY
The last game of the quadrangular baseball league to be played here will be called at 3 p. m, sharp next Tuesday afternoon. At that time if the weather bureau will permit, the twice postponed game will take place.
Baker is said to have a strong team this year. They have taken Washburn into camp and while the game here Saturday would indicate that Washburn is quite easy on the other hand the score by which Nebraska beat them Tuesday, 14 to 12 might go to show that the Washburn men had an off day when they played here however that may be to anyone who has ever seen or heard anything of the traditional Baker-K U. rival the announcement of an athletic contest between the two colleges is sufficient prophecy of a rattling good game.
It is announced that the Baker team will be accompanied by a train load of rooters who hope to rattle the 'Varsity 'colts' by their noise.
Shot at His Ecme in Top ka Friday Morning.
The University world was shocked yesterday morning to learn of the murder of Mr. Collins, father of John Collins a prominent member of the local chapter of the Beta fraternity.
JOHN COLLINS' FATHER MURDERED.
Mr. and Mrs. John Collins, well known residents of this city, were shot at their home this morning by a burglar who had intered the house to loot it.
The following are the particulars as given by a Topeka dispatch to the Lawrence Journal:
The murderer stood near the foot of the bed. The first shot was fired as Collins raised up in bed. The second was fired evidently after he fell. When found he was laying across the bed, Mrs. Collins was in the same apartments. She was awakened by the roar of the gun. The two shots came in such quick succession; she could not distinguish between them. "Helen, Helen" cried Collins, "I am shot in the back. Get camphor Helen, quick and rub my back."
Mrs. Collins bended over the prostrate form of her husband and saw the blood gushing from a wound in his shoulder. A daughter and son soon aroused the neighbors who telephoned for the doctors. The children returned to the father's bedside in time to see him expire.
It was at first thought a burglar had committed the act. This is debuted, however.
Chemical Seminary.
At the Chemical Seminary on Thursday afternoon Prof Sayre referred to some of the recent investigation in the Pharmaceutical laboratory with reference to Echinacae root from Edinacae angustifolia a common plant of Kansas, the vulgar name of of which is nigger-head. It was stated that Mr. S. R Royce, several years ago extracted from the root a volatile oil, about and four tenths percent
Reference was made also to the new application of cresose in medicine, of the local anaesthetic Cocaine B. It is claimed for this' that it is less poisonous and less harmful than the popular cocaine.
Prof. Sayre commented upon these, and also upon the growing popularity of the root of this plant in medicine, at the present time there being collected and sold in this state several hundred pounds annually.
The formal presentation and acceptance will take place Friday May 20. Mrs. A. C. Brooks will present the picture and Professor Blackmar will receive in behalf of the board of education. Appropriate music has been arranged for the occasion.
Recently Mr S C Kirkland has succeeded in obtaining a crystalin+ principal which represents the activities of the drug.
Mrs. Robinson has presented to the Lawrence high school a picture of ex-Gov Robinson painted by Prof. Clark.

AFTER RECRUITS
Watson Junior Law Case to Lawrence to Secure Them.
The Kansas university company seems to be sailing on a troubled sea and are having more difficulty in organizing than they will have in routing the Dons; after they have gone to Cuba or the Philippines. Mr. Watson, a junior law went up to Topeka Tuesday to see the soldiers parade and feeling ashamed of the small number enlisted from Kansas University fett it his duty to also become a soldier to do honor to both Kansas university and his country.
Last Thursday morning he turned up in the junior law class, being sent, as he said by the adjutant general, to muster new recruits and during the course of his remarks which verged on a fourth of July oration, took occasion to cast some reflections on the patriotism of the Kansas university students by saying that "our demonstrations had been louder and our flag had floated higher than at any other school in the state and now we were unwilling to go when our country has called."
The oldest dry goods merchant in Kansas
Mr. Wheeler an ex-captain of the S.A.C. made a few remarks to the contrary who stated in substance; that patrioti sm did not consist in enlisting to help elect an officer and the class adjourned without any new recruits. The same evening Mr. Boyd came down from Topeka. His story is that Watson was not sent by the adjuant general but came on his own responsibility and that he (Watson) had been trying to get the Kansas university delegation to compromise on him as the officer from Kansas university for which place Kising and Boyd are candidates. In this case Mr. Watson's ardent patriotism can be accounted for.
A CARTER, TOM P. WY NEEDED
My goods are all in now. New fixtures have arrived and we are in shape to wait on trade better than we have been doing for want of fixtures. Remember, everything is strictly new, up to date, and cheap as Kansas City or Lawrence prices. I wish to extend my thanks to my old customers both in country and city, who are coming in squads, companies and some days by regiments. I don't feel that I can thank them enough for their very liberal patronage and to my brother merchants who have extended to me the right hand of friendship and welcomed me back to their ranks again (all but one of them.) I wish them success beyond their expections, the farmers abundant crops and high prices, the mechanic and laborer plenty of work at advanced wages, that the United States may keep all she gets and get all she can in this war with Spain.
