MUSIC FIT FOR Lent
Gounod's Redemption Per
formed by the Local Ora.
torio Society.
Many Church Members Gather in
metropolitan Temple to Hear
the Oratorio.

/ Gounod's Redemption" was given for
the first time in San Francisco with or
chestral accompaniment by the San Fran
cisco Oratorio Society and the San Fran
cisco Symphony Orchestra last: night in
Metropolitan Temple. There was large
audience present, among which were many
prominent clergymen and church mem
bers.
The "Redem ption' was a very ambi-
tious departure for choral society which
is not yet year old, and on the whole Its
rendering reflected credit on the perform
erS.
The choruses were not all on the same
plane of merit-some of them, particu-
larly those which gave scope for clashing
TO rte passages, went with good swing,
others were little uncertain. Shading
was not attempted, but finished shading
seldom comes to choruses without long
experience.
A numb ber OF cuts were made in the
score, particularly in its orchestral por-
tions. The San Francisco Symphony
Orchestra was not so we'll represented last
night as 1t generally is at the symphony
concerts. and the audience did not miss so
much from the cuts as it might have DONE
The most interesting number was the
soprano solo and chorus From thy
love as father in which Nine. Yda de
Seminario sang the soprano solo with
charming grace and effect, taking the high
G with the almost ease. The chorus also
did good work in this number. The audi
ence insisted on the number being re-
peated.
The chorus and solo, "Unfold, ye por-
| tails" aroused considerable applause.
! Both the male choruses, "Can he not save
himself?" and Christ is risen again" were
we'll sung. James Hamilton Howe was
the conductor.
| OF the solosts Nine. de Seminario and
George Mcbride distinguished themselves
most The former did not SHOW any spe-
clal ability for recitation, but she has a
mellow, ringing voice and sang her arias
well. George Mcbride is gifted with a
voice of such extended possibilities that
one regrets he is not making
more rapid progress toward becoming
finished artist. He has not made
any remarkable progress lately, bur
| nevertheless he sang the my God Why
Hast Thou Forsaken Me?" in excellent
style and without any of the tremolo for
which he showed too much affection in
some OF his numbers. E. D. Crandali, the
tenor, has pretty lyric voice, but it was
| too weak for The Redemption" Robert
| Duncan, basso, was able to fill the hall
| Mrs J. ID. Sibley also sang; Henry
Brethericn was at the organ and Bern

A. Paulden, bookkeeper for J. K. Armsby,

the burning fluid went down her throat,
and running into the apartment found her
unconscious. He quickly summoned Drs

only short time.
According to the statement of the be-
reaved husband sitting with his two little
children in the now motherless home, she
had long been in i'll health and was often
hysterical from her sufferings.
Her aftiction worked on her mind,''
said he, land she would cry frantically
over real or fancied injuries. The stories
of crimes and suicides In the papers ALWAYS
made her sad and she would brood over
them for hours. | know no reason Whv
she would kill herself.
''She was cheerful up to a minute before
she went into the parlor and swallowed
the acid and had been talking 10 Mr..
Bridges, one OF our ighbors, of trip to
the beach tomorrow. l don't know any
reason for it.''
Paulden is a nephew of Charles Ashton,
the real-estate man, and is known as a
sober, industrious man and exceedingly
Kind to his family. The suicide was native
OF London, aged 32 years. The little bows

Two Silver Champions.

Doubtless many ofour readers, who
appreciate the Importance of the
restoration of the bimetallic stand
ard, would like to subscribe for and
support farm paper which, while
unsurpassed in its agricultural, house
hold and other departments, at the
same time has been the leading ex-
ponent of the bimetallic principles of
finance. With a view to supplying
this want, we have made liberal
clubbing arrangement with the Farm,
Field and Fireside of Chicago. For
many years this great paper has been
pointing out to the farmers that low
prices were the result of a contrac-
tion of standard money to the gold
basis and urging them as patriotic
duty of self defense to vote for the
restoration of silver.
So effective has been its wo rk,
especially during the late campaign,
that Chairman Jones acknowledgment
VIM. j. Bryan that it had done more
towards the restoration of bimetal-
lism than any other single agency.
AS will be seen by our combination
offer on another page, we can give
this paper in combination with the
NORTHWEST, both one year for the
low price of $1.65.
This offer also includes twenty
packets of the best seeds in the mark
ct from the Farm, Field and Fireside's
free seed distribution, where 10 cents
extra is paid forpostage and packing.

ED. NoRTHwEsT:-We wish to make
a correct statement as regards the il
lustrated lecture, ''The. Pacific North
west" by o. B. Whitmore, Portland,
Ore, which was delivered in the M.
E. Church, Liberty Center, o. The
editor of the Liberty Press in last
weeks issue breaks forth in an unjust
soliloquizing editorial paragraph and
says: The lecture at the M. E. church
Tuesday evening was rather a disap-
pointed affair. II Mr.. Whitmore is
by no means fluent talker. Mr..
Whitmore comes recommended as be-
ing speaker of more than ordinary
force and eloquence. He also proved
himself master of his subject, both in
pulpit and lecture. Our audience
was delighted and pleased with the
effective manner of both addresses.
We have no doubt but the editor was
in one of his soliloquizing moods, as
we understand through his soliloquy
that one of his would-be best girls
was so captivated by the beautiful
description of ''The Pacific North
vest that she now longs to sail the
beautiful Columbia and climb the
snow-capped mountains. All flow
ye tears, flow down those unpassified
cheeks. He also sees goats or kids
all dressed up in masquerade suits at
a birthday surprise. He says 1.-The
costumes were very pretty; the fact
is most of the kids were so we'll dis
guised that we could not recognize
them" David, shake off your dreamy
lethargy. Those figures you did moi
know were not kids, attending g
