METHODS or MUSICAL INSTRUCTION
In the New Haven Public schools Inspeot-
ed by Musical Supervisor Cole of Boston
and supervisor Congdon of st. Paul.

In the New Haven Public schools Inspect-
ed by Musical Supervisor Cole of Boston
and supervisor Congdon of st. Paul.
1t is highly complimentary to New
Haven that musical experts and super
visors of musical instruction from all
parts of the country should frequently
solicit the privilege of inspecting the
musical methods practiced in our
schools, superintendent of schools,
delegations from boards of education
and supervisors of music from other
cities have often visited New Haven for
this purpose.
On Friday last Supervisors Cole of
Boston and Congdon of st. Paul, repre-
sentative men in this branch of educa-
ton, witnessed the work. They express
ed great delight and satisfaction with
what they heard and saw. Each of the
gentlemen addressed the pupils, con-
graduating them on their proficiency.
They visited every grade of school work
from primary to high. In subsequent
conversation with reporters they COM
mended the proficiency in sight read
ing, dictation and transposition. They
praised the quality of tone. especially
found difficult to repress little voices.
They made copious notes for future
reference. Professor Congdon of st.
Paul, who is also president of the mu-
steal department of the National Asso-
citation of Education, eomplimented our
supervisor of music with the remark
that in his school work he had adopted
more of Professor Jepson's musical
methods than those of any other super
visor in the United States
AS result of musical training in our
schools New Haven is fast becoming a
musical center. Whatever praise may
belong to others in this respect, it is
conceded on all hands that to Professor
Jepson must be given the credit of lay
ing deep and firm the foundations of
musical knowledge, without which
teachers of advanced courses would be
unable to build.

GRAND OPERA HOUSE.

1.-THE Dazzler' was presented again
yesterday to good houses at both per-
formances. The piece is an up-to-date
farce replenished with many witty
songs, number of which are new.
Mr.. West in his specialties was royal
ly received and his many friends wish
him many years of success. He has
had little opportunity to display his
talents in the piece. His character
songs were all well rendered. Max Mil
Ter, an old time New Haven favorite
in the class of the concert halls, was
also excellent in his German specialties
Bobby Ralston, the funny little man
scarcely three feet high, is a good dia-
lect comedian. George Leslie in his
grotesque dancing was also well re-
ceived. Raymond Finlay was very
clever. Miss Lottie Burke made a
charming coincidence, is a graceful
dancer and sings well. Miss Ida Marie
Rogers is most excellent and her songs
in the second act were well rendered
and loudly applauded The remainder
of the company is good. The piece will
be repeated this afternoon and even
ing.

JOCKEYS
What AROnies They Suffer "wastluE''
Themselves to Reduce Weight.

What AROnies They Suffer "WaatlnE''
Themselves to Reduce Weight.
A prominent physician, in a discus
sion Of the superiority Of the new meth
cd Of reducing the weight Of Jockeys
by means Of coverings electrically heat
ed, says that probably no one under
goes such labor on such low diet as the
Jockey who Is wasting" himself 90 as
to scale with another lucky fellow
whose nature runs less to fat. In the
hottest weather he piles on clothes and
takes sharp walks. He labors hard,
and the more he sweats the more he
feels he has done his duty. Then comes
the4 muzzle. After the labor there is
appetite; after the sweating there is
thirst-a raging thirst-but the food
must be strictly limited, and the drink
must be of the smallest, or all the
labor would be for naught. The priya-
ton Is horrible. Training for condition
Is bad enough, and has made many a
good fellow throw athleticism to the
dogs; but training for weight Is a far
greater infiction. So many pounds
have got to be got Off, and there are
only so many days or weeks in which to
do It, 1t Is done by physic, by sweat
Ing, by hard labor. and by starvation.
A successful Jockey Is envled by thou
sands; but on the other hand 1t must
be remembered that there are few
occupations which demand so much OF
self-denial, and entail such painful dis.
cipline as that of the jockey. The or
deal comes when he is working himself
down to scale. A man In ordinary con-
ditiOn hardly varies in weight from day
to day, and he may keep his weight
almost without change for months and
even years. 1t Is not so, however,
when training has brought down the
weight far below It's natural level.
Then every cell in the body seems hun
cry and athirst, and a moisture Is
sucked up as by blOtting paper. Many
break down under the strain, the star
walton telling on their nervous system
before 1t affects their flesh, while 9TH
ers throw up the effort rather than con-
tinue the misery Of starvation which Is
involved in keeping the scales on the
right side.

OALDWELIs IDAHO SATURDAY, DECEMBER 2e, 1885,

preached very nearly to the shadow
land Of the great unknown. She came
back from the bOrderland Of eternity,
no longer laughing, thoughtless child,
but woman in mind and feeling. The
shock Of great sorrow, followed by a
great and overwhelming joy, had awak.
ened her sleeping soul, and brought to
maturity the deeper and finer traits Of
character which she possessed, but
which, hitherto untouched by the mold
ing hand Of sorrow, had lain Quiescent
In her and unknown.
Capt. Ferguson averred that ne had
faced the horrors Of war and endured
many terrible experiences, but at no
time in his life had he some so near
utterly losing his presence Of mind as
in that moment when his dead friend,
Gerald Jocelyn, stepped from the train
and laid a hand upon his arm.-St.
