acterize the grand old hymns it seeks to re-
place.
Unless the tune breathes a devout spirit
appropriate to the hymn, it were better to
have the words read; their musical setting
det-acts from their effect and meaning.
The typical "Gospel Hymn" does not stand
on a musical plane at all comparable to the
poetical standards of the accepted hymns.
1t is a positive drawback to devotion or
worthy praise and has intruded widely into
associations for which it was not designed
and is not fit.

The Polish Pianist in New York.
Paderewski's conquest of New York is

Polish Dianist-composer an intense, original
individuality, with q complete, modern

Rubinstein, but go higher still, as witness

THE PoPE's EXPRESS ION
On the Labor Questionable Talk to the
French Pilgrims.

French Pilgrims.
ROME, September l9.-The Pope to-day
received in the vestibule of St Peters the
first contingent of the pilgrimage Of French
workmen, which was announced recently
as having been arranged. The pilgrims
numbered 1000. The majority of them
looked like workmen in Sunday attire.
The Pope was received with fervent ac-
CARNATIONS by the pilgrims. He seemed
exceptionally we'll The usual palor Of his
face was replaced by flush, evidently due
TO the excitement.
Cardinal Langeniux, who headed the pill
grims, read an addrest, IN tho course OF
which il wrs stated that in all twenty
thousand workmen were coming TO Rome.
In reply TO the address the Pope, in q
voice which although weak, was clear and
penetrating, said: Great is our Joy az
witnessing the ardor Of Christian
France. We are happy that our en-
cyclical has assisted worklngmeR. So
cial and labor questions will
never find their true practical solution In

precepts of perfect justice, which demand
that the rate Of wages shall adequately cor
respond with the labor done, and lise there

ward acts OF man cannot compre-
bend the direction Of consciences
The question dmands also the aid Of
charity going beyond justice. Religion
along with its revealed dogmas, and other
precepts possesses the right 10 impose on
consclences that perfect justice ard chari-

therefore be sought In the action OF the
church, combined with the resources and
efforts Of public powers and human Wis

Indisputable principles must be applied,

The Pope spoke for twenty-five minutes.

A RACE FOR HOMES.
The CimarrOn Valley the Point Of
Home Seekers.
TROUBLE LIKELY TO OCCUR.
The Negro Colony Hasscd at Langstop on the Border
Will Move on the Promised Land-OOwbOys
and Indians Against Th.m-Stia
Provisions Oh the Sac-Fcx Treaty.

GUTHRIE. o. T., September 19.-The ex-
citement grows hourly greater among the
people who will make the race for homes in
the indian lands which will be opened TO
settlement next Tuesday. There are sew
eral causes for excitement, chief among
them being the large number of negroes,
who have gathered by hundreds at Langs-
ton, the Oklahoma negro colony, and who
intend to move en- masse upon the Cimma-
ron valley, the best perhaps of all the new
lands, and settle there to the exclusion OF
ali other settlers. Many white set
tiers, among them being numbers
of desperate and unscrupulous cow
boys, object to the negroes plans,
and will take desperate chances TO pre-
empt the choice of claims in the very
face of the negro hosts. The most desperate
say they will oppose by force the wholesale
settlement Of the negroes in the valley. The
cooler heads, however, know that the race
will be to the swift, no matter what his
color. II the negroes get there first the
landis theirs. If the whites outrun the
negroes, the latter must look elsewhere for
claims. The excitement caused by the
hostility of the cow boys to the negroes has
been of such long standing now that it is
believed it will have nearly died out when
the hour for the rush occurs.
Langston is several miles from here and is
without telegraphic facilities, so that no
official news has been received from there
since the deputy marshals went there yes
terday TO prevent the threatened distur-
Dances.
Another cause for excitement is tho
hatred of the Indians for the negro. The
Sac and Fox claim that their lands were
sold to the government under distinct
agreement that they were 10 be opened 10
"White Settlement" They know that
they themselves cannotprevent the negroes
from settling on the lands. but they hint in
unmistakable terms that they will make it
very uncomfortable for the black man II he
settles.among them.
Still another cause for excitement is the
uncertainty as to just what lands may be
claimed by the ordinary settler. The set
tier may be the most deserving and most
desirable sort of person. He may make
a successful race for certain section OF
land and may claim it, but when he goes
to the land Office to file his claim he may
find that he has claimed an Indians allot-
ment or an old soldiers pre-emption.
The land office here Is besieged by
veterans or their representatives. Before
the arrival of the morning trains to-day
the city was almost deserted. Every one
who intended to claim homestead in the
new lands had gone yesterday afternoon
or last night to the border of the new lands
to find a favorable starting place for
