PORTLAND. July THE petition Of

Caprivi. IN long address. introduced the
amended army bill. He said il repre-
sented the minimum that the government
would accept in either men or money, and
was the lowest possible consistent with
the safety Of the empire The galleries
were crowded. many prominent people be-
ing present and Chanceilor Won Capriyi's
speech was frequently interrupted by ap-
piause. The key note Of the speech was
that foreign countries, not knowing the
German character intimately, had been
led to believe that Germany had lost con.
fidence in herself. and that the countries
comprising tho German empire were no
longer united. This, the chancellor de-
clared, was erroneous and should be
quickly dispelled by the adoption of the
new bill. The chancellor referred to the
action Of Russia in increasing the peace
footing Of her army by 9400O since iSS9,
and he said she had not yet exhausted her
resources. Germany. he declared, must

Is Niagara Wearing Out?

Formerly the Canadian side of the Nj
agara falls was U shaped, which caused
the name Horseshoe falls to be given it.
For the last 10 or IL years, however, that
side of the falls has been V shaped instead
of . shaped: the change being caused by
a wearing away of the ledge over which
the waters pour. On Jan. 4, 1889, Il great
displacement of rocks again took place,
and now the Canadian side of the great
cataract is known as Horseshoe falls.
It is pretty generally known that the
falls OF Niagara are moving to the south.
A deep cut through the solid rock marks
the course they have taken in the back
ward march.
It is a wonderful excavation, d mighty
canal dug out by the sheer force of fall
ing water. Not less astonishing is the
removal of all this debris. The rocks
have been thoroughly pulverized and
swept out into Lake Ontario. Onceit was
believed that the falls would ultimately
wear back to Lake Erie and degenerate
into a second class rapids. The latest
idea is that the falls will recede two miles
farther to the southwark and then stop
still-that is, as far as the background
tendency is concerned. The cause of this
will be that at that point a solid founda-
ton for the limestone ledge over which
the waters pour will be found. Two
miles Of a wearing back will make the
falls only 80 feet in height instead of 100.

Julius Eichberg writes: Sat the occa.
sion of a musical festival in Dusseldorf
I witnessed a scene that produced gen
eral and not unjustifable excitement
among those present. 1t was at the last
rehearsal of Beethoven's ninth or choral
symphony, and the great hall was filled
with people from near and far anxious
to hear the then but little known work.
While the orchestra played the first
movement we noticed a dark bearded,
specialized, middle aged man in the au-
dience, who had a score before him and
was gesticulating wildly, being evident
ly very much dissatisfied with the per
Torrance. Suddenly he arose, advanced
toward the orchestra and began to shout:
"'This is all wrong. 1t was not thus
that my immortal friend, Beethoven,
wanted his masterpiece to be played
You ought to play it much slower. and
in this way He began to beat time Wig
orously to the astonished musicians, en-
tirely ignoring Mendelssohn, who con

several people forcibly elected the dis
