FAIRLY DEDICATED.
The Great Auditorium Sue~
ceSsfully Launched on
Its Career.
Nearly Three Thousand Peo-
pie Enjoy a Taste Of ,
It's Quality.
Artistically the Success OF
the Evening Was Un- !
qualified.
Plunkett Green's Fine Work
the Hit Of the Dedi-
cation.

The great Auditorium. with its capac-
ity to comfortably seat 5000 people aud
afford standing room for half as many
more, was formally dedicated to the
public use last night. For the first time
the great structure lOOmed up in its
vastness as much needed addition to
st. Paul supplied. 1t is not complete.
and the barn-like air is there in all its
strikingneSS, but it formed a comfort
able shelter for the 1000 people
it enclosed, and was well lighted
and with perfect acoustic properties,
so that it entirely satisfied
all and was successfully launcned
as popular place of great entertain
ments. There were something over
1000 people there, perhaps nearer 5000;
but with that multitude, there was an
unmistakable air of emptiness and the
feeling that twice as many more could
safely have been slowed away in its
Vastly depths. This number of the at
tendance does not include the several
hundreds who thronged the outside
balconies, and by peering through the
doors and windows were enabled to
enjoy the proceedings gratis.
1t was fine audience, withal, that
dedicated the building, and certainly
pleased one. There is distinct nov
city in ST. Paul hall in being so far
away from the walls OH either side as
to be unable to recognize friends across
the hall, and opera glasses and lor-
gnettes were used as never before. The
grand chorus occupied the balcony
above the stage, and enjoyed the felicity
of observing the entry of the crowd and
its surprise upon finding that it faced
the seated audience on coming in and
fguratiVely ran the gauntlet of every
eye.
Musically the evening was success.
Some fault might have been found with
the orchestral rendition of the BeethO-
ven symphony, and perhaps with the
choice of selections Materna made, but,
nevertheless. it was a success. The
singing of Green would have stamped it
success, with nothing more.
Frau Amalia Materna was heard here
nine years ago, when Theodore Thomas
and his orchestra made tour of the
West. Their coming marked an epoch
in the music world, and was the Begin
ming of new dispenSation. Frau Ma
terna is still the powerful singer
who filled the Coliseum at Min
neapOls, and her voice has lost
none of the breadth and nobility of tone
which marked her first appearance. AS
an interpreter of Wagnerian music she
holds front rank among the singers Of
the world, and properly the greater
part of her songs were taken from the
works of this master. There IS sweetness
in the tones, but they rise into a
grandeur in the climax which brings
out the full splendor of her powerful
organ. A sympathetic fervOr ana dra-
matte rendering add to the completeness
of the performance.

awaited with warm anticipation, and he

Commissioner Blount Will Be
Minister to Hawaii.
WASHINGTON, May 9. = Officials Of
the state department tonight confirm
the predictions heretofore made that ex
Representative Blount would be ap-
pointed minister resident to Hawaii. 1t
has been supposed that Minister Ste
vens would remain in charge of the
legation until the 24th OF this month, at
which time he had announced his in
tention of sailing for San Francisco. 1t
is now known that Mr.. Stevens was in
struct6d to forthwith turn over the lega-
tiCn to Commissioner Blount, who has
been appointed his successor. There is
reason to believe that Mr.. Stevens was
nOC allowed to remain in charge Of the
legation until the oath inst. because OF
his activity in behalf of annexation.

mission, expresses the belief that
the law was Intentionally made uncon-
stitutional.

WASHING hoN, May 9.-The pension
bureau has just unearthed fraud of
colossal proportions at Norfolk, Va. A
pension attorney named Drury forged
the papers in about 100 cases, securing
pensions for colored women whose hus-
bands were alleged to have been sol
diers. OF :he entire list only two are
bona fide claims. Seven special agents
were sent to Norfolk this evening to
make a thorough investigation. This is
the first result of the order of the new
administration made by Deputy d. l..
Murphy about two weeks ago, in which
all people who knew of fraudulent
claims were invited to send the facts to
the pension bureau.
Judge Lothren took the oath of Office
today as commissioner Uf pensions, and
then devoted some time to learning the
details of tile work OF his office from
Deputy Commissioner Bell. Later he
held q RECEPTION, at which about LOGO
OF the empl4yes of the bureau were in
troduced to- him. In the number he
saw many familiar face of an old SOL
der. The Judge is making no move
ments without knowing

having made UP his mind to devote sew
eral weeks UD posting himself on the
situation. The first deputy, d. l. Muir
ply, is at ptesent absent, and as he is
the man updn whom both Judge Loeb
ren and the president will rely prin-
cipally, nothing will be done until he
returns.
81 have not been in position to give
any time TO the consideration of pension
matters, or any other governmental
affairs, except in the most cursory way,
owing to the eXacting nature Of my ju-
GicIal duties" said Judge Lochren.
ICONS equently | have outlined no pol
icy and formulated no theories. All L
have to do is to carry out existing laws"
Allusion being made to the immense
aggregate sum of money that was now
required for pensions, Judge LOchren
aSsented, saying it was rather odd, too,
considering that the war had been over
nearly thirty years. He also referred
to the fact that within very few years
the total pension payments had been
doubled in volume, though this was
natural result of the liberal legislation
of 1890. He thought tnat there Was a
growing sentiment in the country in
favor of reform in the matter of pen
::sions, sentiment that was reflected in
many influential newspapers, Repub-
llcan as wei, as Democratic.
