VIOLIN PLAYING.

arrangement of the left Eand--Fiayins
In Tunc-In Regard TO Strings.
After reasonably good bowling has
been acquired, says writer in The La
dies Home journal, the study Of the
left hand should be taken up. The neck
Of the violin must be held between the
thumb and the first finger where it joins
the hand. The entire length Of the fin
ger must be held above the edge Of the
finger board, a2d the fingers must fall
double jointed and like the hammers of
piano on the strings-the very ends of
the fingers touching the Strings In or
der to produce clear tone the fingers
must be pressed very hard on the strings
"Strong with the fingers, light with the
bow is the constant refrain Of one of
the most celebrated teachers.
The first difficulty encountered is that
Of playing in tune. AS the violin is not
supplied with frets like the guitar or
mandolin the ear is the only guide.
Important as the practice Of the scales is
on other instruments, it is doubly inn
portant on the violin, as it is by scale
study principally that the ability to
play in tune is acquired. The playing
of familiar melodies is also of very
great advantage to the beginner, as he
can tell when he is playing out Of tune,
where i'll the case of an exercise with
which he is upaCquaintod he cannot so
easily distinguish this fault. In playing
scale passages the student must con.
stantly ask himself whether the next
90 lnI H. IL,
tant before he plays it. If he will go
through the exercise beforehand and
mark the whole steps and half steps, he
will execute it in much better tune
when he comes to play it.
In regard to strings, the best are the
cheapest, as they last longer and give a
better tone. The G. should be of gut
wrapped with pure silver wire. The A
and d should be Of Italian gut, and the
L can be Of either gut or silk. Silk i
strings give poor, dull tone, very diff
ferent from the singing brilliance of
good Italian gut Els. They arc good for
warm weather playing or for persons
whose fingers perspire very freely. The
hair Of the bow should be renewed ev-
cry two months in the case of players
who practice very much, as it wears
smooth and will not take hold Of the
string. The violin should always be
kept strung up in pitch. Do not let
down the strings of the instrument with
the mistaken idea that you will save
some of them thereby. Never neglect an
opportunity to hear good violinists.
Something can be learned from each. A
student learns as much from hearing
others play as from private Lessons with
a teacher. If you can only'take few
lessons, let it he from tho best teacher
you can find.

Hanna climbed on his chair just in

kerchief held aloft; $1,000 people in
the galleries rose simultaneously and
$1,000 throats gave forth their wild
enthusiasm. The black mass of dele
gates and alternates in the pit seemed
also to rise en- masse, save for here

ton. Silk American flags and long,
tri-colored plumes waved frantically
while the noise was like the deep
steady roar of Niagara.
An Ohio delegate seized the Buck
eye standard and held it aloft until it
was seized and carried to the platform
and opposite the stand an enormous
portrait of the choice of the conven-
ton was hoisted to the gallery. The
minutes passed, but the delegates and
the spectators did not weary. Just at
the close, as the shouting thousands
were ready to sink from sheer ex-
haustion, man wearing q Napoleonic

out from beneath the galleries and
pushed his way over the press benches

vaIedictory Read by Senator Cannon In
tho st. Louis Convention.
AS soon us the platform bad been
adopted, Mr. Teller arose to ques-
ton of personal privilege and asked
to be allowed to file protest
Permission was granted, and Sena-
tor Cannon read lengthy declaration
of withdrawal from the Republican
party. Following is the protest in
part:
"Hstory, philosophy, morals, all
Join with the commonest instinct of
Misrepresentation in demanding that
the United States shall have a just
and substantially unvarying stand
ard composed of all available gold
and silver and with it our country
will progress to financial cnfranchise-
ment. but with single gold stand
ard the country will go on to worse
obstruction; to continued falling prices
until our people would become hewers
of wood and drawers of water for the
consumers in creditor nations of the
earth.
ITO such an unholy end we will
not lend ourselves. Dear as has been
the Republican name to its adherents,
that name is not SO dear as the faith
itself. And we do not sacrifice one
jot or title of the mighty principles
by which publicanism has uplifted
the world when we say that at the
the parting of the ways we cling to
the faith, let the name go where 1t
will. We hold that this convention
has seeded from the truth; that the
triumph of such secession would be
the eventual destruction of our free
dom and cur civilization. To that end

After the decision Of the Platt forces
in New York OF to present the name
of Governor Morton, owing to the war
waged against him by the Warner
Miller faction, the nomination Of Ho-
bart of New Jersey became a certainty.
MIR. Hanna and the Mckinley inhu-
ence was thrown for him, and although
there was an attempt to consolidate
the West on Evans of Tennessee, the
Mckinley influence was too potent.
Besides, it was the general sense Of
the delegates that the logic of the
situation required the nomination Of
an Eastern man for Vice Preside mt.
The nomination speeches were brief.
Buckley, of Connecticut; Tipp, of
Rhode Island, and General Walker, of
Virginia, were also placed in nomina-
ton, but it only required one ballot
to determine the contest. Hobart re-
ceived 530]9 votes, 80 more than ma
jority Evans, his nearest competitor,
received 2S01l. There were scattering
votes for Reed, Thurston, Grant, De-
pew, Morton and Brown.
Kansas voted solidly for Hobart and
Missouri gave Evans L. and Hobart 81.
Committees of one from each state to
notify the nominees were appointed.
Nathaniel Barnes, of Kansas, ]. b.
Haughawont, of Missouri, and John
A. Buckler of Oklahoma are on the
committee to notify Mckinley; and
Frank Vincent, of Kansas; b. f. Leon
ard, of Missouri, and William Grimes
of Oklahoma on the committee to no
tify Hobart.

Teller had made his final appeal to
the convention not tc take the step
which would drive him and his col
leagues out from the ranks of the
party which in the past honored them
and they had delighted to serve, and
the convention had voted. SisN to
1861, to stand by the gold declaration
In the platform, no one who wit
messed the scene will forget to his
dying day the picture of Senator
Frank Cannon of Utah, facing from
the platform 10, 900 irate, kissing, jeer-
Ing people as he read the valedictory
Of the silver men.
He stood erect and defiant, his pale
face set in grim determination as
those before him tried to cry him
down until the very courage he dis
played won for him the admiration
which compelled silence. When he
had finished the reading the crowd in
the galleries burst out again with
their jeers and cries of disapproval,
but in the most courtly fashion he
turned and shook hands with Senator
elect Foraker, the chairman of the
committee on resolutions. Permanent
Chairman Thurston and other friends
on the platform. Then, locking arms
with Senator Teller, the two men left
the stand and moved down between
the walls of yelling delegates to
where the standard of the Idaho dele
cation stood. There they were joined
by the handsome, stalwart Dubois,
and the three men continued their
march to the main door, their fol-
60 ~, 10,
moved along.
The Silver Walk Out.
1t was small band several of the
delegates from the states of Utah and
Montana, notably Senators Carter and
Mantle, of the latter state, preferring
to subscribe to the platform than to
sever their allegiance to their party,
and the delegates, only few of whom
displayed any bitterness toward what
they believed to be the misguided
course of their colleagues. breathed
sigh of relief when it was over,
The silver men who bolted immedi-
ately perfected plans to place Senator
Teller in nomination as an independ-
ent candidate for President, in the
hope the Democrats ut Chicago, if con-
trolled by the silver men, would place
his name at the head of their ticket
After this sensational incident, the
convention turned to the work of Sc
lecting the standard bearers. 1t was
q foregone conclusion that Mckinley
would be nominated, but the pent up
enthusiasm of the friends of the Ohio
candidate found full vent.
Nominating Speeches.
The speech of Baldwin of Council
Bluffs, nominating Allison; of Senator
Lodge, nominating Reed; OF Hastings,
nominating Quay, and of Depew, NOM
mating Morton, were eloquent. and
mastery efforts, and were received
with the greatest enthusiasm by their
respective supporters, but it was the
nomination of Mckinley by Foraker
which turned the convention into bed-
lam.
Save for the wild tumult that fol-
lowed Senator Wolcott's speech plac-
Ing Blaine in nomination at Minneap-
oils four years ago, the demonstration
had no parallel in Republican ma
tional conven tion-at least in length.
The Minneapolis demonstration con-
tinued for twcnty-sevcn minutes. That
of yesterday fell short of that record
by thirty seconds. Ofcourse, it lacked
