The Use of the Pedal.

An important point i'll piano playing
is the knowledge of the pedals, which
seldom forms part of the initial train
ing. The sustaining power of the loud
pedal is unknown or uncalculated and
is often roughly used by many who know
the use of it. The study of the pedals
ought to begin as early as the age of
the pupil will allow. It must become
as a third hand, to be carefully practiced
together with the other two. 1t is told
in The Etude that the pedal is an essen
tial part of the piece and must grow
with it. 1t is an art which becomes
habit, and which must be felt and di-
vined moro than taught after the gen
eral rule is known of holding the pedal
down as long as notes belonging to the
same chord are struck.
Chopin has been the greatest Of all
in the use Of the pedals. He knew with
the utmost perfection all the resources
of them. The manner he has marked
them in his works shows how much he
wanted to impress us with the necessity
Of constant practice of them, changing
the pedal almost at every note.
In the best editions of Schumann's
works the pedal is left out almost en-
tirely. That is because one ought to
know how to use it, being more a mat
ter of feeling than of technical knowl-
edge.
The soft pedal may be used occasion
ally and with great discrimination; 9TH
erwise the effect becomes vulgar and
pretentious as an artificial lightness of
touch. Bad tastes in this case may go
very far. The fingers must be educated
to the utmost delicacy of touch, SO as to
make use of the second pedal only in
order to obtain some peculiar effects of
shade on background of semidarkness.
In fact, the clumsy handling of this ped
al makes such an alteration in the quail
ity of sound that only finished artist
knows its real value and may venture to
employ it at all.

play had up his spike to do me. I may be
mistaken, but thought they had all been
instructed to give it to NO. I don't know
why they should, for never Intentionally
injured player in my life. The only way
to get back at them is to fight them with
their own weapons. The first thing the
Pittsburg players know, the rest of the
teams will begin to lay for them, and
give them the spike all along the line, If
it comes down to an issue, there are a few
other players in the country who can play
dirty ball as well as the Pittsburgs."

TRACED 70 MERlDEN.

Safe In New York.
The trip of Detective Egan and Inter
prefer Brenna to Meriden yesterday in
search of Murderer Manfredi proved un-
successful. The officer and his companion
arrived there only to learn that the Merlden
papers knew of their coming and had
printed the news in their evening issues.
They did find out one thing, however, that
Manfredi had been in Meriden the night
before and possibly since the crime was
committed. Right here are where the
Meriden police force are blamed. The
night of the crime or the day after tele-
phone message was sent from police head
quarters here to Meriden police head
quarters asking the Meriden officers to be
on the alert for the assassin. They were
also told that Manfred had friends over
there by the name of Venastro and were
requested to keep watch on the home of
these people. The Meriden police failed
to do this until they received another mes
sage yesterday, when a search of certain
premises on Pratt street, by Chief Ford,
Lieutenant Bowen and Patrolman Sanford
failed to discover the murderer. Detec-
tive Egan was confident that Manfred was
in Meriden and soon found the Venastro
family, who at one time lived in Waterbury.
The aged mother of the family at first de-
MED knowing anything OF the man, out
her agitation in the presence of the officer
convinced him that she was concealing
something. She finally broke down and
told the italian interpreter that Manfredi
was very dear friend of hers, in fact was
at one time engaged to be married to her
daughter. He had been at her home the
night before, but went away that morning,
she thought towards Waterbury. She did
not say SO, but it was cleaned from her
conversation that she had given Manfredi
money. There the case rests, and it is
liable to rest there as Meriden is very
easy center to catch flying express for
New York, and once there murderer
from Connecticut is comparatively safe.
There is no doubt in the minds of the
local officers but that Manfredi has been
in Meriden since the crime. and they feel
very sore that Meriden officers should let
him slip through their fingers and also
lose that $500.

The Care of Sponges.

Among the thousand and one things
over which the housewife must keep a
watchful eye is the bath sponge. Tt is
an expensive article, to begin with, if
one buys the best, and only the best are
worth buying. When once a sponge has
become malodorous from want Of care,
repeated scalding will often fail to make
it sweet, but try the ounce of proven
ton in the first place. Free it from
soapsuds each time after using and hang
it where it will dry, and you will never
have sour sponge. In summer dry in
the bright sunshine; in winter hang neal
q stove or register. A wire basket placed
near the bathtub and at the same time
near an open window is the best recep-
tacle
