ONE of the latest arguments advanced
not publicly but quietly, as reason why
Catholics should vote for Blaine is that
he has niece who is the Mother Supe-
rior of a Convent at Wilkesbarre Pa. A
New York SIN correspondent writes from
that place as follows:
The labor vote in this great county of
Luzerne represents seveD-tenths OF the
full poll, of which six>tenths are Irish
Catholics. There is not man of them all
who is not to>day acquainted with the
fact that Blaine's niece presides over the
convent here. Thousands have been ig>
norant of this until quite recently, ais
though the lady has been Mother Supe>
rior for many years. Just now the most
heroic efforts are making by the Blaine
managers to convince the little world of
Catholics in this vicinity that the repub>
lican candidate for President is himself a
Catholic. Your correspondent has been
informed that if it were possible to secure
the letters received by certain prelates in
this vicinity within the past few weeks,
some startling disclosures would be made
concerning promises presented by the re-
publican candidate, in case of his elec>

the newspaper office, and tried to explain
the circumstances, which were, he though,
embodied in the sensation. The wicked

Stevens up, using the information he had
so kindly given them, supplemented by
more, which they were enabled to reach

Herr Dvorall frequently seems to care as
little about the meaning of his words rs he
does about their accent. He Will set such
Il pathetic theme as Tui Natl yulnerati
to gentle tune of pastoral character in
the orthodox siX-ei9ht time, for no other
apparent reason than that after so much
that has necessarily been mournful a cheer
ful melody in a major key might he agree
able; and in many other instances the.
connection between words and music is
equally slight Altogether he has con-
ceived his subject i'll the spirit of absolute
as opposed to poetic" music. In the lat
ter, rs was previously pointed cut in con-
nection with this work, the poetic basis is
all-important Melody, and with it har
mony. grows from the words with organic
necessity. In the former the poet is al
lowed to supply little more than general
idea of sentiment or passion. The musi-
clan treats his theme i'll accordance with
the rules of his own art, and fits the words
to it in more or less arbitrary fashion,
with such results as may be too frequently
observed in the Stabat Mater" Herr
Dvorak's shortcomings in this respect are
the result of inexpcrience. He is too in
telligent and gifted musician to remain
much longer in the leading strings of Jo-
hames Brahms and other self-appointed
upholders of the so-called classical" prin-
ciple. If he had to set Jacopone's HYMN

mar the beauty of its lines by slipshod
defamation. Neither would he destroy
its continuity of pathos by emitting it mp in
different movements with no organic con-
nection between them DIR. Huefer, in
