Naturally, there was some diversity OF
opinion regarding the result of the quar-

There is some doubt as to whether Pro-
fessors Radcliffe and Krouse will accom-
pany the regular excursion train to the
white city owing to the illness OF Mrs.
Radcliffe and the pressure Of business
upon Professor Krouse. Both gentlemen
may conclude to go on later, however,
and may be present at the celebration Of
Utah day, on Sept. g.. Professor Krouse,
it is understood, will also play for the for
eign officials in the Utah building.
There are some musicians who think
that whatever they do is above criticism,
and resent any mention OF them that
is not in the nature of homage. The only
way these individuals can prevent this Tor
perhaps the singular would be better is to
withdraw from the professional ranks and
cease appearing before the pub
lie. A musician who is not
either too thin skinned or ssbig headed''
to stand fair criticism, whatever his
merits may be. has no business before the
public.
