ADJUSTMENTS.
The Ellis Concert Last Evening a
Delightful Occasion.

Delightful Occasion.
The Ellis club was greeted last even
ing by as pretty an audience as ever
was gathered in Los Angeles, and one
wlthal whic h keenly appreciated the
feast of harmony provided. Mr.. Chas.
S. Walton conducted. The exactitude
and expression with which he controls
the many voices before him is almost
wondrous. 1t evidences both the highly
developed perception of the leader and
the perfect control over their voices by
the chorus. An orchestra could not
have been more responsive to the batons
wave than were the skilled singers be-
fore Mr.. Walton last evening.
The first part of the programme was
given up to rendition of Dudley
Bucks The Voyage OF Columbus !;
most difficult piece in construc-
tion, combining much descriptive work
with involved harmonies. 1t was sung
in mastery way. Mr.. F. A. Walton,
DR.. M. Fernandez, J. r. Osgood and
Mr.. Ellis sang solos most acceptably.
The second part commenced with
Dearest, Awake, by Stouch, with a
solo quartet consisting of first tenor,
Mr. Dupuy; second tenor, Mr.. Fisher;
first bass, DIR. Buell. second bass, Mr..
Wallace.
This was followed by comic chorus,
Catastrophe.
The remainder of the programme was
as follows:
Polonaise de Concert, Kuchenmeister;
Brier Rose, Debois; Hunters JOY, Ast-
holtz; Suite for Violin, Franz Refs;
Chorus OF Priests, Mozart; Were the
Atlantic Main, Zollner; first tenor, Mr..
Smith; second tenor, Mr.. Sias; first
bass, Mr.. Fennimore second bass, Mr..
Byram.
Mr.. j. Bond Francisco's s performances
upon the violin were listened to raptur-
ously and applauded with enthusiasm.
His execution was simply above criti-
cism. Mrs. Chas. S. Walton and Miss
Beatrice Francisco presided at the piano
as accompanies, adding greatly to the
success of the evenings entertainment.

THE FEDERAL BUILDING.
Work on it's Construction Has Recon-
menced.

Work has been resumed on the federal
building, at the corner OF Main and
Winston streets. This meets with gen
eral appreciation from the public. The
building is badly needed, and it is
thought it will be better to have small
one than none at all. AS matter of
fact, the building will be much more
commodious than would appear to be
the case from a cursory view Of its be-
ginning, and it is SO designed that at
very little additional expense another
story and another wing can be added. If
an additional appropriation can be Sc
cured at the next session OF congress this
will Undoubtedly be done, and then no
fault can be found regarding want of
space.

The War of Types.

1 suppose I ought to apologize for men
tioning newspaper matters SO often, but
really they are the most interesting devel-
opments in New York at present. The fight
is bitter and remorseless. Joseph Pulitzer,
called by cable from a cruise on his yacht
in the Mediterranean, has come flying home
like an old lion ready for the fray. Col.
Cockerill, who gets great credit for making
the World, put on his hat one afternoon,
melted thereto, 1t is snid, by a eablsgram
ordering him back to st. Louis, went over
to the Aston house rotunda, and in three
hours raised the capital to back his new
venture. Some state the amount at 50, 000,-
600, and say that part of it will be used to
put up the finest newspaper building in the
country. Col. Cookerili had not intended
to begin operations until fail, but Il chance
to buy ths Continent and Advertiser and
merge them under the latter title was too
tempting to miss.
Mr.. Turner, the former business manage
of the World, is also out and has taken hold
OF the Recorder, putting in not only money,
of which there was plenty before, but a rare
executive ability, which was quite as much
needed. Col. Taylor, of the Boston Globe,
one of the Drainiest men in the business, is
also said to have an interest under the new
deal with Mr.. Turner and Mr.. Duke. II SO
colonies will be thick on Park Row. Mean.
while good newspaper men familiar witt
New York conditions arc making lots Of
money.
> There is really no reason why all tn,
present papers shouldn't do we'll. Tht
number is not excessive and the newspape
reading habit is becoming constantly nor,
fixed. AS for myself, | don't believe it's
good plan to read newspapers too much
Be brief-cut it down-no long-windet

ism of the future, and the man who tries i

Eiction In NeWSpaDerk.

The practice of publishing fiction in
newspapers has evidently come to stay. A
few years ago publishers were afraid of
serials and confined themselves to printing
short stories, usually borrowed bodily from
some English publication. By the way, the
process works both ways. / have seen in
an English newspaper office Il fiction editor
in the very act of transferring an article
from Puck, pictures and all,
Now, serials are freely used by all the
publishers. Within the past few weeks
readers of the Sunday papers, have had their
choice between serials by William Black,
Conan Doyle, Frank Stockton, Haggard,
Kipling and many lesser lights. One of
the very best of these serials is Irving
Bachelors Master of Silence" which
has been running in the Herald. 1t
has a subject and method of treat
nlent in which many readers would feel
no interest, but no one who has ever specu-
lated upon the occult forces of the natural
human mind could lay down An install
ment unfinished. Mr.. Bachelor had good
opportunities to publish the story in book
form, but deliberately preferred the news
paper medium as opening for him a far
wider circle of readers than any book could
DO.
The magazine people needn't fear. This
is a reading age, and there will be plenty of
room for them.

The Shatchen.

The Shatchen.
Did you ever see q ''~shatchenT
Not on the stage; a real shatchen. | mean,
walking along the streets. wearing good
clothes, advertising in the newspapers when
they will let him, looking like a prosperous
merchant and taking his queer business
quito as a matter OF course? Chance threw
me in the way of such a man the other day.
Ha was a strongly built man, past middle
age, with a kindly and benevolent counte-
nance which scarcely betrayed his Hebraic
extraction. He had been i n the country but
q short time and was amazed to find that
the business of running q matrimonial
agency was regarded here as a little ''off
color" Il
OF course this %shatchen comes from Ger
MANY, where matrimonial brokers flourish
much better than with US. l know a wealthy
landed proprietor in the khenish Palatinate
who remains a bachelor for some romantic
reason. He is fairly pcstered by shatchens
who persist in coming to him and saying;
II know a lovely girl, beauteous, young,
accomplished. kind, sprightly, and heiress
to a hundred thousand marks. You can
marry her if you will. Come. Why not?'"
All of which seems very strange in this
land of freedom and Sunday evening court

MIR. Howells' Return.

Mr.. William Dean Howells' decision to
return to New York to live is not surpris-
ing. Boston still remains the best city in
the country to sell books in, but hardly to
write Or publish them. It is a little incon-
venient to have to Cross two states to get to
one's Office, as Mr.. Howells has found.
The nutor of "a Modern Instance" is a
thoroughly good fellow n with scarcely a
trace of the cynicism, and none of the snob-
bishness. which people fancy they see in his
work. He is very witty, courteous and
companionable and, withal, a sincere 80
~cialist, who believes in nationalism in
everything and is always ready to go as far
in its advocacy AZ his publishers will let
him. as those who remember Conrad Dry
foos and Minister Peck will readily amt
Some of the more advanced socialists are
inclined to find fault with Mr.. HoweIls fol
not beng more bold in his advocacy, but
he has a family to support and, really, a
man must live.
It's very easy to call a man a ~literar,
dude when you haven't seen him.
