DISAPPOINTED Girls.
Why So Many Singers Fail Who
Take Music in Italy.

WAsuINGToN, June 4.-George w,
Pepper, United States consul at Milan,
Italy, has made an interesting report
upon the difficulties encountered by
American musical students in Italy.
Mr.. Pepper says that the great majority
of young students who go to Milan to
finish OFF, return to their homes in
few years without having received
great benefit, and dIsillusioned as to
the merits of Italian masters, and he
thereupon proceeds to give some advice
as to how this disappointing result may
be prevented.
The selection of teacher, he says, is
one of the most difficult problems
which cOnfrOnts the new arrival. Now
that the two most famous musicians,
San Giovanni and Lamperti, are dead,
there remain the $50 others. more or
less celebrated, from whom to choose
Young women who are wrongly allowed
to come alone to this country are here
confronted by another difficulty. as So
cial etiquette, which forbidS their tax
Ing a lesson unless third person DO
present, condemns their appearing in
public alone. This custom is grad
ually giving way to more liberia
views, but it has often even recently
subjected several young American
women to the most annoying perSecu-
tionS. Out of the hundreds who have
come to have their voices tested, only
one to my knowledge received an hon
est opinion from tine master to the effect
that the quality of her voice did not
justify her i'll commencing lessons. I'm
fortunately. the majority are led to be-
lieve that they are destined for sue
cessful career. They remain from
month to month and year to year, con-
tinuing their lessons ana waiting for
engagements.
Three cases'have been brought to Mr..
Peppers attention where the capidity
of the master in wishing to keep his
pupils for long time, i'll order to con-
tinue to- receive their money, caused
disappointment that resulted IN the UNI
settling of the reason Of all three.
Wrong ideas with regard to the cheap
ness of living in Italy is also another
reason for the failure OF students, many
Of whom think that board can be had so
cheaply that they bring insufficient
funds. This, says Mr.. Pepper, is one of
the primary causes of final discourage
ment and failure. No one can live COM
fortably in Milan for less than $50 per
month, including lessons. and yet the
majority come WlllI all INCOME lHuCl less
Many hope to enter the royal cOnserya-
tory, where tuition is very low, but few
Ame&canS succeed in doing So as the
conditions for entering are very strict.
No one over twenty-five years of age is
accepted or who has not some knOWl-
edge of the Italian language. Out OF 100
American singers now residing at Milan
not one has succeeded in entering this
year.
The majority of Americans have been
in Milan for more than year; mum
Der for more than five years. New
York, Ohio and California send thl
greatest nun Der. Their quality of thei
voices in purity and range is said to
surpass those of other nations, but the
fact is apparent, said Mr.. Pepper, that
not more than 80 per cent of them at
tain great success on the stage.

GRAND JURY RESULTS.

A cotemporary, in rallying to the de-
Tense of the grand jury system, asserts
that SIN case of all abuse of power by
an official ring, the grand jury may
investigate on its own motion, and give
publicity to abuses that would other
wise be concealed" The history of the
grand jury system in this country shows
that grand jury is as much swayed by
political inclinations as any other body
of men. A grand jury composed of
majority of Republicans in a Repub
lican city will, as rule. devote more
time to finding reason to believe that
the Republican officials are immacu-
late than to hunting testimony to prove
that they are corrupt; and the thicker
and faster the charges come in from
Democratic sources against the officials,
the more vigorously will the Republic
ans OH the. jury work to overthrow it
all. A Democratic grand jury in a
Democratic city will, as rule. do the
same thing for its party. In either case.
il the official ring has become so noto-
riously corrupt that the party in power
is already partly turned against it, then
the grand jury, though it be composed
of members of the ruling party, will
sometimes investigate and make public
damaging facts. In such a case the
body has done nothing Oh its own mo-
ton, and accomplished nothing which
is material benefit to the public. All
that it reveals has been made public re-
peatedly by the local papers, and by the
| substantial people of the city. long ago.
Every man Of affairs We'll knows that
| it is Ule of tire most COMMON things for
Republican grand jury in Demo
cratic city to ba tool i'll The hands of
Republican politicians who are seeking
the overthrow OF the PARTY in power by

pensions from being granted, and sug-
gest that posts be supplied with printed
lists of pensioners in their localities, and
the members be requested to report
such names as are unworthy. This is
very different expression from that of
the Farnham post, and leaves the COM
mander-in- chief in an unenyiable posi-
ton.
But such measures would be product
i've of no good. if the commandments
chief expresses the feeling which doml-
mates the order. The Farnham post de-
clared that only those were entitled to
pensions who. by wounds or disabilities
incurred III the service, were prevented
from earning living, land whose cir
cumStanceS are such as to justify them
IN calling on their country for aid or
support" This the commander-ln-
chief said was ''hostile to the principles
of the order" Evidently, then, the
principles Of the order are to open the
pension list to all, whether disabled in
the service OF not, and whether needing
aid or not. The administration Of pen
sions under TANNER aud RAUAI bears
out this conception of the ''principles"
of the &. A. r. When corns on their
toes are deemed by the pension depart
ment as disabilities emitting the suffer
ers to pensions, it would seem as if any
old soldier need not look for pensionable
disabilities. No one who ever wore those
old army brogans but can produce evil
dences of such disability.
No one who served for any consider
able time in the army but has been
repeatedly beSought by former comrades
seeking a pension to make affidavit to
some incident in the latter's army life
to which they hope to trace pension
able disability. The impulse to help a
comrade out in pinch is strong one.
The memory is strained to recall the in
stance, with disposition to have it re-
called, and the result too often is that
the incident thus suggested gets onto
paper in black and white as a veritable
fact, supported by the oath of the COM
rade, who really recolleetS nothing about
it. 1t is easier TO do what an old COM
rade asks to help him in distress than to
say no, and there comes to make it
easier the demoralizing thought that
everybody is getting pensions anyway,
and why shouldn't JONES have one too?
Of course every old soldier who takes
the right view of pensions, and esteems
his standing as a soldier and his duty as
citizen, should expose every instance
of fraud. and refuse his aid wherever
he was not sure, but the general dis
position is not favorable to such action.

MILLED PRODUCTS.
An Interesting Exhibit to Be
Made at Mainz, Germany.

WASHINGTON, June 4.-The depart
ment of agriculture is informed that
the exhibits of milled PREDICTS to be held
at MainZ, Germany, in August next,
is matter that will be of great interest
to mlllers in this country. 1t is eX
pected to bring together thousands of
bakers from all parts of Germany and
continental Europe. At the same time
the National Association of Bakers will
meet there, OF which association three
fourths of the bakers in Germany are
members, and to which Holland, Swift
zerland and Austria will send delegates.
An excellent opportunity will be
afforded to exhibit American
cereals, in view of the recent
modification by Germany of the
discriminating tariff imposed upon
milled as compared with unmilled
products, which was an almost effectual
barrier to the Introduction Of American
flour materials, ETC., into that country.
The duty is now the same OH cereals,
whether milled or unmilIed; and this
duty is considerably less than that
levied Oh Russian cereals. Before the
reduction was made the tariff was about
three times as great as it is at present.
A baker in Germany, writing to the
department, says he uses American
wheat flour to a great extent. and that
other bakers in different cities are also
using it extensively.

A TRIUMPHAL WEEK.

This is the beginning of triumphal
week for st. Paul. 1t will be the grand
est milestone in the career of the To-
cality-a monument to the wonderful
development of the Northwest and the
happy part our city occupies in it. We
will be the center of attraction from
Wisconsin to the Pacific coast, and
mark of observation all over the nation.
The parade will present striking
picture to the thousands of observers of
the entrance to the wilderness of the
French voyageurs, the Indian life. the
traffic by dog teams, the Red river OK
cart, the prairie schooner period, stage
coach period, the beginning and devel-
opment of the railroad period. The
most vivid panoramic presentation will
fall far short of arousing most people to
true conception of the marvellous growth
which mas been accomplished. This
conception can only be gained by COM
parison with what has been accom-
pliShed in SO short time in other coun-
tries. The majority of the millions of
people of the Northwest are Western
born, land so used to rapid transition that
they will look upon the designs of such
parade more from an eye for the beau
tiful than from an understanding of
their true greatness of meaning.
Within less than ten years st. Paul
has become the eastern terminus of
two transcontinental lines of railway.
Both Of these traverse vast areas of
country which were only so few years
ago the exclusive domain of the Indians.
When the golden spike of the Northern
Pacific was driven, in September, 1888,
Dakota was the frontier of the broad
wilderness that extended to point near
the coast. Since then the population OF
the territory of Dakota has grown into
two states. and Montana, Wyoming,
Idaho and Washington have been pop
ulated so rapidly that they have also
become states.
Since then the Great Northern rail-
way has found broad and fertile will
derness long way to the north of the
former line and built upon it. The ter
ritory traversed is one of the richest in
agricultural and mineral resources in
the world. The road opens new ELL
pire, which will soon be occupied by
millions of civilized human beings.
More than that, the road opens a new
and one of the greatest avenues to the
Oriental world. 1t will obtain a large
share of the import traffic from that
country, and st. Paul will be the chief
destination of the consignments of teas
and other products.
The city is already arrayed III splen-
dor, though the work upon the arches
and of decorating the public buildings
is not quite completed. The profusion
of flags, festooned and otherwise artistic
ally arrayed; about the windows and
doors of the buildings in the center of
the city, is one of the most beautiful
sights ever seen anywhere. The arches
| are the grandest ever erected in St.
| Paul, and it is doubtful that more costly
and artistic were ever seen in any city.
1t will be the most glorious and men,
orable week in the history of the
Northwest and of the Mississippi valley.

PAN-AMERICAN MEDICs.
A Great Congress to Occur in
Washington in September.

WASHINGTON, June 4.-The first Pam
American medical congress will as
semble i'll this city Sept. next, and
continue in session for four days. 1t
will probably be the largest gathering
of physicians ever held III the history
of the medical profession. The Ameri-
can Medical association, at its session
in this city in June, 1891, passed a
resolution extending an invitation
to the medical profession of the
Western hemisphere to assemble in the
United States in an inter-contiuental
American medical congress, and it was
arranged to have the government send
out the invitations to the sister repub-
lies of the South. The object in calling
in convention representatives of all
medical societies of the new world, was
10 bring about more thorough famil-
iarity between physicians prac-
ticing from Alaska TO Pata-
gonia; to lay the ground for
quarantine restrictions among the
various countries; to demonstrate
the facilities for studying medicine IN
the United States. and to open fields for
work for American graduates III the
South. Papers will be read on wide
range of medical topics. Ii IS thought
that 1900 physicians will be in attend
ance, of whom fully One-half will come
from Spanish America. At the con-
clusiOn OF the session grand tour will
be made of the chief hospitals of the
United States. Congress has appropri-
ated $4,000 towards defraying the eX-
penseS of the conference.
