DAVID BIsPHAM's VOICE.
RejOiced a Large Audience at Park
Church Last Night.

ReJO1ceu "a Large Au0leRce at Pdrk
Church Last Night.
There is a temptation to give way to
wild eXtravaganceS when, instead Of
the method-ridden, consciously artistic
singing, one hears a man who, in the
love of his art, forgets the artist and
the method and the master and let's the
big, cultured Godgiven tones out in all
their natural beauty. Such q treat did
David Bispham give the five or six
hundred people who gathered in Park
Congregational church last evening
The concert was the second of the
series Of five which the st. Paul Musi-
cal club has arranged for the season.
Mr.. BiSpham'S first two numbers were
IAN die Musk" and Der Erlkoenig,"
by Schubert. The first selection SEEM
ed just to stir the audience up to the
realization of what was before them
and to prepare them for the strong,
Independent and dramatic rendition of
1.-The ErlKing." Here the artist showed
himself a master and not slave to his
art; he chung to the Interpretation of
the thought and made the music sub
servient to that end, even though it
seemed necessary to quite dispense
with tone at times. For instance, when
the child is found to be dead, the dis
tress and agony of the parent finds
imaginingS Of the sick child and his
frenzied cries to his father were given
as excellent tonal expression as the
strong, yet tender and soothing assur-
anceS Of the father. 1t was a fine
piece of work, and that the audience ap-
preclated 1T was attested by the per-
sistent applause that followed Mr..
Bispham from the room. The next two
numbers were from Schumann, being
the ''Widmung" and Der Hidalgo." In
these numbers, as we'll as in the others.
the artist revealed one of the most
pleasing characteristics of his voice.
viz, that of changing it's power without
changing its quality. In the "Quand
ero Paggio," by Verdi, there was a
CHEEKY, jovial spirit in the rendition
that gave a faithful Interpretation to
the selection, and pleased the audience
so much that they would not be quiet
ed save with an encore. After an in
PERMISSION of five minutes the singer
gave six selections in succession, be-
ginning with the pathetic Somebody,
following with the saucy ''Naebody,"
"Naebody Cares For Me Nor Care I
For Naebody." The third when
thro' the Piazetta,' seemed to affect
the audience as the Irishman who was
not surprised at falling, but was some
what beWildered at stopping so quick.
They were ell full Of expectancy when
the number suddenly ended. eff we
took half the pains for heaven above
we take below for woman's love, what
angels we could be- are words of much
truth, but with all their truth they
were not more truthful than musical as
Mr.. Bispham rendered them. The last
four selections were pieces of feminine
composition and were given with the
same pleasing dash and confidence as
the others. Mr.. Bispham goes from
here to st. Louis to fill an engagement,
after which, it is said, he will join Mr..
Damrosch.

NEVADA TRAGEDY.
Whole State Shocked by a Carson
City Murder,

City Murder
CARSON, New, Nov. 9.-The entire stats
Was slartled and shocked at the murder late
this afternoon of Charles A. Jones United
states district attorney, by Julian Gilman
the 16-year-old son of a well-known local
physician. The prominence of all connected
with the affair, the attendant circumstances
ana the suddenness Of the tragedy make IL
one OF the most sensational happenings In the
history OF Nevada. Jones' death was caused
Dy bullet wound in the head and for a
time mystery surrounded every circumstance
connected with the killing. At first Il was
supposed that Jones had committed suicide,
out no weapon being found on his person
or near the scene of the shooting It became
evident that his death had been caused by
another, and an hour later young Guinan
surrendered himself at the sheriff's Office
and confessed to the killing.
The statement Of the youth, who is now IN
JAIL, Is to the effect that Immediately prior
TO the shooting he had observed his sister
talking to Jones with whom his father had
forbidden association, when he saw DIT. GUT
nan approaching. BELIEVING trouble TO be IN
evitable when the two men should meet the
boy procured a Winchester rifle and stationed
himself at a window for the purpose, as he
says OF protecting his father. Upon en-
c0untering Jones, DR.. Guinan said to himi
This is the last time l shall ever warn you
against keeping company with my daughter"
Jones 1eered at the doctor in comment upon
his warning, and slipped his hand into his
right-hand pocket. Guinan states that, having
often heard his father threaten to kill Jones,
and having been informed that the district
attorney always carried q revolver, which ha
believed from Jones motion that he was about
to draw. the boy fired at Jones In anticpa-
ton of an attack upon his father. Jones'
fell forward dead, the bullet from the rife
having entered above his right eve and
passed out at the neck behind. Miss Gut
nan, seeing Jones fall. threw herself upon
him and embraced the dead body

EIGHTH WARD DEMOCRATS
Hustle to Get Out People for Nat
urnIizatOn TOniplt.

The Democrats of the Eighth ward
held well attended meeting last even
ing at University and Western avenue.
The meeting was called for the pur-
pose of organizing an Eighth Ward
Democratic club, and to give instruc-
lions to those DESTROYS of securing their
second papers. P. J. Metzdorf was
elected temporary chairman and Fred
Smith temporary secretary. T. J. Nc
Dermott was present and explained the
necessary formality to be gone through
to secure naturalization papers. To-
night being the time assigned to resi-
dents of the Eighth ward to secure
their papers, Mr.. McDermott said he
hoped all those who had been given
orders would be at the city clerks Of
flee in the evening.
Precinct committees of four members
were appointed to canvass each dis
trict and give instructions to those who
had not taken out their second papers.
At the next meeting of the club a.
permanent organization will be per-
fected. Future meetings of the body
will be held weekly. after Nov. 49,

TEMPERANCE FEDERATION.
Two Important Matters Under Con-
sideration Last Night.

siderafion Last Night.
The present indication is that Tenn
Perance Sunday, which this year falls
on Nov. %, will be more generally OBJ
served in the SANITY City than ever
before. If it is, it will be the result
of such agitation as has been given
the matter by the members Of the
Christian Temperance federation. At
their regular bi-monthly meeting held
last night in the Y. NJ. G. A. rooms at
Central block, two recommendations
made by the executive committee were
adopted unanimously. The first of
these was that Temperance Sunday
should be as generally observed as
possible, and that ministers of all
creeds and denominations be asked to
call the attention of their congrega-
lions to the fact that date was set
apart for this particular day. The
suggestion also contemplates that
union platform meetings be held in the
evening.
The second recommendation is quite
as interesting. 1t provides for q sort
of literary contest in which the men,
bers of the nine different classes Of
societies in the federation will try con-
illusions in the matter of essays which
will set forth the best methods of en-
forcing the laws on the books relating
to the sale of intoxicating liquor. Eacn
society will hold a competitive session,
and the best one or two essays in each
will come together in the final trials,
which will be when the federation next
meets in two months.
Rev. John Pringle, pastor Of the
Goodrich Avenue Presbyterian church,
made a short address on the general
subject of temperance and the work
of the federation. It's duty was rather
the molding of public opinion on the
subject of the liquor habit than Of
handling individual cases, and there
was, he thought, a grand opportunity
to improve. DR.. Pringle was elected a
member of the executive committee,
vice Mrs. Moore, resigned.

TAXES FOR WATER MAINS.
Supreme Court to Pass on n st. Pau
Case.

The supreme court yesterday heard argu
ments in the suit of Ramsey county against
the Robert P. Lewis company to enforce the
collection of the water frontage tax on
large tract of land on Dale street, between
Front and Maryland. The owner refused to
pay the tax on two grounds first, that the
frontage of the property on the other
streets, and not on Dale, and, second, that
the main in question was not a service main,
but conduit, and that the water works
department had refused to permit 1t to tap
the main in question for use there The
county, and the city, which also appeared in
the case, contend that the frontage tax must
be assessed on property abutting on street
whether the longer or the shorter side of the
tract shall face the street in question. In
this case the tract, they contend, has front
age ON all the three streets and would be
liable to such assessment. AS to the other
contention, the county and city contend that
the owners might have sued the water works
department under mandamus proceedings to
compel them to permit the attachment to. OF
right at this time to default in the pay
ment of the taxes.

mains on Geranium street between Payne
