BEAUTIFUL MUSIC AT ST. JOHNS
Dvorak,s Grand Communion Service
Sung Last Night.

The st. Cecilia Club, of st. Johns p.
e. Church.. gave a sacred recital last
night of unusual excellence, and everyF
one in the large attendance keenly en-
joyed the choral work of a programme
rich in selection AS Rev. DR.. E. L.
Stoddard said. the choir had chosen for
it's recital one of the most difficult and
one of the most charming of compositions
in modern music, the great communion
service in d, by Antohin Dvorak. DR..
Stoddard. who is himself a efine and
cultured musician, accurately describes
the services in the following language
The "Kyrie Eleison'' opens with a grace
full movement in GA time. In the small
intervals of this rhythmic movement will
be noticed one characteristic of Hungar-
ian music: the English ear wishing a
larger interval and one more easily APP
preciated. It the Christie Eleison.' the
flowing melody ceases. the time is
strangely and wierdly broken, a new
theme is brought in, and startling har-
monte progressions are heard. Following
the "Kyrie," the "Benedictus'' will be
sung by a quartette. This movement is
delicate and p a;nd as a. the signing q
non breathes its way.
The s"Creed" Is perhaps the most or
iginal, the most dIfnculL and the most
beautiful of the six parts of the Service.
The Altos give out the theme through
almost the entire Greed in a delight
full melody. and are answered by a full
forte chorus. Al most graceful and
charming effect will be noticed in the
words, "and was ~incarnate,1 in which the
parts entwine like amusical vine. This
is foll0Wed by a startling chorus.
The .Agnus Del" sung by four voices,
is very tender, and one can fancy. that
there are constantly breaking forth cries
for mercy and sobs of penitence. The
Agnus ends with a fine Gregorian tone.
The Gloria is very striking and beauti-
full. It opens with q superb bust Of
abounds. with subtil effects which it re-
uuires a musician to appreciate.
All this delicate and beautiful music
was sung in a delightful manner. Shading,
color n refinement of sentiment were
everywhere noticeable. Before the SER
vice opened Mrs. Let's and Miss Stratter
sang that famous duet, .sQuis est homo.
from Rossini's Stabat Mater. The well
known and extremely difficult duet was
adrnirqh1y sung.

The reduction from 1895 to 1896 is just
sS1, $685. 81. But disseminating the ~publica-
ton of the laws in the newspapers caused
an economy of about $4,000 Therefore,
the other expenses must have been about
$4,000 more extravagant in 1896 than in
1895.
The reason why the State u n for
1897 is about so much is that the
figures published so far do not give it
exactly. 1t ds Jumped with the school
fund. and we have not accurate figures
available to dis~entangle the two accounts.
The figure we give is reached by esti-
mating this years school money at
about the same as last years.
We further make the 1897 appropriation
thus, ito date" This is because the de-
icaency bill is yet to come. 1t will come
at next years session of the Legislature.
This years deficiency bin is s2SS, 677.03 for
the General Fund. A similar addition to
the 1897 appropriation will make the ex-
penses of the year about $780, 0O.
The explanation given for this years
heavy appropriation is that the extraor-
binary expenses are heavy. They are.
Here are some very pretty as well as
extraordinary expenses for a "Presiden-
tial year.: 100000 for a Camden Armory;
$4,000 for more building at the Morris
Plains Asylum; $4,000 for the Reform
atory building job at Railway, and $4,000
for an emergency fund.- for the Gov
ernor.
Economy n reform, according to the
Republican dispensation. are truly great
things.

Cur Representatives.


The people of Nevada have a two
fold reason for giving their earnest
support to the effort now being made
in behalf of bimetallism. They have
the aliruistic and humanitarian reas-
on looking to the general revival that
we believe will come to the country,
now in a dry rot Of inaction; the reason
that such governmental action will in
the opinion of those who favor an ex-
pansion Of the currency. result in a
reopening Of factories; in the EN-.
p,oyment of the idle millions now
walking the streets of America look
ing for work. and in a general stimu-
lus of tho narcotized industries Of this
country. And they have the special
and more selfish reason that results
from adesire to see one overshadow-
ing industry of Neveda meet with it's
just protection, as we'll rs the in.
dustries OF the East whose protection
Is so earnestly demanded by the
Republican party. If Massachusetts,
has its WOODEN factories and it's shoe
shops; if Pennsylvania has it's iron
works and its coal mines; if the South
has it's cotton fields and it's cotton
mills; and If California has it's orange
orchards, Nevada who poured her
treasure into the lap of the nation in
the hour OF it's traVail-Nevada has
her silver mines, and her brave silver
miners; miners WHO have today but
the memory OF the days that are gone
to recall her glory. Thee can be
nothing in the doctrine Of protection
unless such protection is universal and
equitable in this country of ours. II

through all Of the occupations that
go to make up our high type OF civil.
cation. And where efforts is to be
made; where bravery if to be re-
warded; there stands the miner and
asks for his quota Of protection. In
out State of Nevada it is hardly con-
ceivable that there should be any
honest opposition to the rehabilita-
ton Of silver as money metal.
There can be no. doubt that Nevada
will cast her electoral vote over
whelmingly for Bryan and Sewall,
and 30 add her mite to what now
appears will be tidal wave of public
opinion and cyclone OF disapproval
OF the Eastern goldbugs. And in as
sisting in that censure the voters of
Nevada should not fail to remember
that to elect Bryan and not send Il
delegation to Congress who not only
are heartily in favor Of the move
ment, but who have the ability and
the experience to assist him in ouch
efforts, would be but half victory
and another exemplitication Of aLove's
Labor Lost" Such represe tatives
Jones aud aud Newlands have proven
themselves to be. Newlands has

MEXICAN DOLLARS VS.. GOLD BONDS.
From the Denver Times.

From the Denver Times.
CAMP SILVER, Colorado, Aug 10.
Messrs. Phil Armour Co.. Chicago. I'll.
DEAR PHIL:-Your offer of fifty
cents worth of meat and a Mexican
dollar in exchange for an American
dollar received, but can do better
with our heme butcher. lie offers
fifty cents worth Of meat and two dol
lars worth OF Portuguese three per
cent gold bonds in exchange for sill
yer dollar.
Our butcher says the bonds must be
good, as Portuga, has been on gold
standard since 1858 (twenty years be-
fore the other enlightened nations OF
Europe) and its national debt has only
increased 100 per cent since that date.
Average wages paid all artisans in
Portugal is seventeen cents per day.
In your fermer letter you told me
that all we needed was little gold,
improved 'banking facilities" and
confidence"
Portugal has a "little gold" the
world has had its improved banking
facilities" since 1853, and can supply
the confidence" SO the bonds are
certainly good.
Our home butcher says he will con
tinue to give fifty cents worth Of meat
and two dollars worth of Portuguese
gold bonds for an American dollar az
ter Bryan is elected. Will you guar
antee to give fifty cents worth OF meat
and a Mexican dollar in exchange fol
an American silver dollar after Bryan
is elected? Yours truly,
JOHN FAIRPLAY.
P.S. see that the London Times
quotes Mexican bonds at 94i, Portu
guese per cent gold bonds at 26t.
