Sutton & Hollowbush have moved into
the corner store under the Funke opera
house. The corner has a holiday as
pect now. The children stand about the
window flattening their noses against
the polished plate-glass and wishing
they had money enough to buy a good
sized stomach-ache. Sutton and Hol-
lowbush make good candies, fresh every
day. OF late years their trade has ex-
tended all over this part Of the state.
Through the winter they will serve
hot and cold soda, and make all kinds
of fancy cakes to order. No hostess will
regret it If she gives their frozen pud-
ding or angel food a trial at her next
party.

IN RELATED KEYS
HERBERT BATES

At the Universalist church Sunday
afternoon the audience was the larg-
est yet, filling both galleries and ev-
cry accessible corner. There were two
solos. one by Mr.. Charles Hagenow. the
Andante from De Beriot's violin con-
certo, the other a vocal solo by Mr.. Ket-
tering, From the Depths" by Cam
pana. Mr.. Charles Hagenow's solo two
weeks ago showed fine tone and ex-
preston but called for a little command
Of rapidity and technique. DeBeriot's
concerto made more demand and Mr..
Hagenow gave an increased impress
sion Of technical skill and artistic con-
troll The tone seemed little thin,
lacking in richness: it had, however,
great sweetness and fine singing quail
ity. In the more difficult passages the
technique was very brilliant.
Mr.. Kettering's voice is the voice OF
a singer. 1t has faults, among which
is the exasperatingly persistent tremolo
Of most Lincoln singers. But 1t does
sing. 1t gides; it does not like too
many voices we hear walk, and walk
apparently over rough ground. 1t de-
livers not separate notes, but sustain
ed and unified song. 1t is one OF the
most lyric male voices in the city, a
voice that can rouse, a voice that one
can look forward to hearing.
Another soloist, not on the program
should be named. That Is Miss Hage-
now. Her piano playing in the Mozart
quartet, while, of course, lacking the
mower that will come only Of maturer
strength, showed sympathetic musicai
insight and musical intelligence that
might well be envied by some OF the
ouick-fingered virtuosos who ROBUST
iously bluster through passages quite
as unintelligible to them as to their
open-mouthed audience. Understand
ing is the important thing. Miss Hage-
now has it.

It is a pity that congregations cannot
sing hymns with some life. some force.
It is not that some do not sing. The
trouble is that those who do sing seem
to have the wrong idea Of the task
that is set before them. Hymns are not
bad music, unless they are really badly
written alm-tunes, or Gospel Hymns.
Most Of our graver church hymns are
excellent music Many have melody,
but their chief strength does not lie
in melody. 1t lies in the deep chords,
in their rich, rolling strength, their
slow procession through simple, but
massive, cadences. They are chorales,
and one who has ever heard a chorale
well sung by a great chorus knows
what force it may have. But how are
they sung in most Of our churches? In
the first place, the time drags. 1t Is
meant to be slow, but 1t is also meant
to be steady, not to go slower at each
step. Then, to make it worse, every one
sings the whole melody, after the SIM
pie fashion of a negro prayer meeting.
So the chief merit Of the hymn, its har-

ENGLAND IS FOXY.
She Intends to Keep an Eye on the
Nicaraguan Canal,
And May Accept Corn Islands from Nicaragua
Instead OF indemnify.

Washington, April 19.-Ofieial con-
firmation of the London dispatches that
Nicaragua has been informed that her
counter proposition is not regarded as
satisfactory by Great Britain, was received
here, today. Nicaragua's present plan, IL
is understood. is to endeavor to reach a
compromise with Great Britain respect
ing the ultimate settlement of the lndem-
nifty of $4,000 to Pro Consul Hatch. In
pursuance of this purpose, special repre-
sentative may be sent to London, who VIII
probably be General Barrios, who recently
returned from England, after an unsuc-
cessful attempt to settle the difficulty. 1t
is not doubted that in the end Nicaragua
will pay the indemnity demanded, or offer
Great Britain in lieu of the So, 600, part
of her territory.
The report reaches here from Managua,
that Mr. Costing, British minister to
Central America, declared in Guatemala,
u few months ago, that England especi-
ally wanted some interest In Nicaragua
with a view to preventing the Yankees
from controlling absolutely the Nicaragua
canal. ="
This statement. it is said, was made
publicly and without reserve 1t was
printed in the Guatcmalan newspapers at
the time, and high authority asserts that
Minister Costing never yentured to deny
it. The particular patch OF territory most
available for this purpose would be the
so-called "Corn islands, ''the possibility OF
whose preferred session by Nicaragua to
Great Britain, in lieu Of q money indem-
nity has been more than once suggested
lately. These islands are in the Atlantic
ocean about 40 miles from Grey town.
They would BIC Of great value to Great
Britain as Il coaling and naval station and
an effective British sentinel over the
Nicaragua canal.
There are those who suggest that if
Nicaragua should propose to cede Corn
islands to Great Britain as an equivalent
for the "smart money" the Immediate
payment of which is demanded, this pro
posal might be regarded rs a shrewd move
to force the hand of the United States
Nicaragua is not suffering for lack OF
diplomatic adrotness in representatives
either abroad Or at home.
