eminent Of the pupit-poitical orators Of Glasgow,
Scotland, has just expired at his residence, Pros

him of was chronic bronchitis and congestion Of
the lungs from which he suffered for months but
had only been confined to bed for ten days. With
but slight exceptions he retained his consciousness
to the last, and died In the full assurance OF hope,
saying that 'while thankful In his closing hours he
felt no pain, he lOnged to get home"
DR.. William Anderson was son OF the Rev. John
Anderson, Relief Minister, Ktlsyth. He studied at
Glasgow University and was called to John street
church, his hrst and only charge, In 1921, although
owing to hndrances placed In his way by the Pres
pulpit, he was not ordained till the following year.
His jubilee was celebrated in March, 1871, when he
was presented by the congregation and friends
with II 200, which he generously devoted to found
Ing scholarships In connection with the United
Presbyterian Church. He was noted for his Milen-
marian views, and was powerful and popular ad-
v0catc OF civil and religious freedom. Besides two
volumes or diScOurses Lectures on the MaSs,n
ne was author or weliknOwn work on Regenera-
ton, pronounced the best in the language. He re-

advance movement for progress in Glasgow dur
ing half century. He fought for the cause Of edu
cation Tor the voluntary church principle for the
anti-slavery movement, for the Reform bill and
other popular measures, and for these long before
they became popular and when they were every
where spoken against. From his pulpit usually
came the first peal which awakened Glasgow to
any new liberal movement. Those who have heard
him Introduce K0ssuth denOunce Pho Mono, expose

OF the Westand People.

the representation of foreign art will be

Representatives..
The profound impression created by the three
first concerts of the renowned pianist Rubin
stein, and the scarcely less famous Polish vio-
linist, Wieniawski, is likely to be productive of
remarkable results in the cause OF art In this
city. There were o few cavaliers at first who
expressed doubts about the appreciation of the
and severe as these eminent artists introduce
1t was said that the public do not understand,
and therefore would not support concerts
which were not devised in what is called the
popular vein. This word popular is term
often used but seldom understood. AS far as
it relates to music it means to some the
absence of all art and the constant introduce
ton of popular ditties and dance tunes
People of this kind would prefer ''Shoo Fly"
to "Bel Raggio," or polka mazurka to a
Chopin concerto. But the true aim of the
artist should be to educate the public
until they can appreciate and find
pleasure in the best forms of music. This
was the task undertaken by Theodore Thomas
years ago, and be never faltered in his arduous
labors until he popularized the names of
Beethoven, Mozart, Haydn, Mendelssohn and
Wagner. Earnestness of purpose and unre-
hitting perseverance, on the part of director
can make any musical work popular, and
when this work possesses real merit its popu-
larity will be lasting
Nothing can be more gratifying than the
prospects of the opera season, which opens to-
morrow with Meyerbeer's last work, Ell Afri-
caine." Nine. Pauline Lucca, the reigning
star of London, Berlin and st. Petersburg for
many seasons, will make her American debut

eminently suited to her. With her Signor
Vizzani makes his debut. The company is
completely new, and selected from the two
opera houses in London. Even the minor
parts will be filed by new corners, the
excruciating singers OF former years
being dispensed with this time. The
chorus and orchestra are unusually strong,
and many novelties are promised in the mise
en- scene and appointments The subscription
has already reached. higher figure than ever

season, and everything points towards a bril-
liant and successful term of Italian opera.
