1T Is HEAVENLY MUSIC.

EOuard Strauss, the Waltz Wiz
ard, a Success---St. Paul Night.
All over the city in musical and
amusement circles, everything is
Strauss, and nothing is talked about
but the wonderful music that the great
Vienna orchestra is giving its Mime
apolis patrons. There was bold at
tempt made to prejudice the minds of
the Minneapolis public against the
great leader and his orchestra, but it
failed signally, and now immense crowds
throng the Exposition each evening to
do honor to the composer and leader and
listen to the wonderful music that he
gives in the line of beautiful WaltZeS
and stirring polkas.
There is something wonderful in this
mans power to move audiences. The
great musical family of which he is a
member seem to have in their individual
souls veritable poem in the way of
motion, and it is with that he achieves
his success. One who hears the airs of
the Danube played by his orchestra
could hardly tell why it is that they are
reused to the pitch of enthusiasm.
There is no specially grand feature that
Individually, it is doubtful if they are
any of them wonderful musicians, yet
when the cue of the master leads
them the plaintive strains certainly find
their way direct to the hearts of the
listeners.
Last evening another immense crowd
aOcked to the building, and were given
treat in the way of a splendidIy ar
| ranged programme. There were plenty
OF the Strauss compositions to please
all, and little of the more difficult
pieces, among others the overture to
Der FrieSchutZ," by Weber. Chopin,
| Shubert and Schumacher were also rep
| resented. The great leader scored as
| great success as ever. the applause
| after each number being something un-
| usual to Minneapolis audiences. There
| is not the least doubt now but what the
| Exposition will be crowded during the
| remaining evenings.
| Tonight is to be ST. Paul night for
| Strauss, and it is expected that there
| will be large number of people from
there to hear the music. The same
train arrangements have been made
that were in use during the Pompeii
! engagements, and there will be no
trouble in getting home. The St. Paul
| people were liberal in their patronage
| of the great spectacle, and it is thought
that they will be fully as liberal in their
| patronage of this greatest of all musical
events. There are but two days more
in which to hear this wonderful music,
and everybody should avail themselves
| of the opportunity. <
