CHICAGO MARINE Band.


CHICAGO MARINE BAND.
The organization of a great military
band, Of which there are but very few
in the world, is one of the most gigantic
tasks musician can undertake, 1t
usually takes years Of hard rehearsal
and never ending patience to bring an
organization of this kind to a state of
perfection where it can be called a
real high class military concert band,
There have been but very few exceptions
to this, and so notable is the case of
Mr.. T. p. Brooke, the magnetic conduc-
tor of the Chicago Marine band, that it
Is worthy of mention. About the be-
ginning of the worlds fair season in
Chicago Mr.. Brooke was called upon to
organize military band to be attached
to the Illinois Naval militia. Mr.. Brooke
quietly gathered around him a corps of
artists who. as an organization, had
never been eXcelled in America, and the
critics after the first concert were a unit
in declaring the Chicago Marine band
the equal of any that had ever been
heard on this side of the Atlantic, and
with possibilities far beyond any other
Mr.. Brooke, who more closely reaches
the heart of his audiences than has
anyone since Gilmore's time, is said to
be possessed of the magnetism, to an
extreme degree, without which none
can scale beyond the middle heights of
fame. Brooke and his famous band

let, Mr.. Perlet composed the music for

MARRIAGE BY LANTERNS.
The early part of Lent is always a

Only Two thousand Places Left Out
side Civil Service Rules.
The great majority Of the seekers for
Office under the Mckinley administration
are bound to be disappointed. Every con-
gresham who has been spoken to on the
subject testifes that, 50 far as he Is able to
Judge from letters received, the pressure
for Office IL greater than for any time since
the foundation of the government. The
mail of senator's and representatives is
heavily burdened with letters from appli-
cants for once. All that can be done with
them for the PRESENTS to acknowledge their
receipt and file them away for reference.
1t seems to be forgotten by these Repub-
lican patriots oil over the United States
that only few months ago President
Cleveland issued an order putting about
$1,000 additional employees of the govern
ment under the protection of the civil
service law. It Is said to be fact that
there are not now 1000 officers of all kinds
in the United States left outside OF the
operation Of the law t. which appoint
ments can be made by oflicials of the in
coming administration. 1t is a somewhat
singular fact, too, that congressman are
utterly unable to convince their ambitious
constituents that the civil service law is not
all joke and that congressman and gov
ernment officials are under obligations to
treat it seriously.

THE BUTCHER QUITS
WEYLER FORWARDS HIS REsiG.
NATION TO SPAIN.
He Was Ignored in the Sanguilly
Negotiations Expects to Leave the
Island In About Three Weeks.
Wcyler Hos Resieued.

A dispatch to the New York Herald
from Havana says that it is learned on the
very highest authority that Capt. Gen.
Weyler has forwarded his resignation to
the Spanish government at Madrid. The
captain general, it is said, will leave the
island as soon as possible, probably in
three weeks. This decisive step Gen.
Weyler decided to take as soon as he heard
of the release Of Julio Sanguilly. The
captain general frequently said he would
resign II the crown should interfere with
his policy in regard to prisoners, especially
Americans. He was incensed beyond
measure at being ignored in the negotia-
tons carried on by the Spanish govern
ment in the case of the notable captive,
Sanguilly, who was released Friday. 1t
is reported that Gen. Ramon Blanco Y.
Arenas, marquis Of Pena Plata, may be
app ointed to succeed Weyler.

During the short time the bridgetender

Three passengers were in the car
just before the accident, but they
had sufficient warning and jumped
tn time to save themselves.
The motorman and conductor also
deserted the car and escaped injury. A
butchers wagon was crossing the track
just as the motor approached, and the
horse and vehicle were carried over the
edge into the water, the driver managing
to scramble from his seat and avoid the
wreck. The horse was borne down by the
weight Of the wagon and drowned. Just
before the Twelfth Street electric cars

state Revenue Laws Invalid.
The state revenue laws, after being in
force since 1891, are now found to be void,
and it is said the railroad companies that
have not paid taxes will now refuse to do
SO. This defect was discovered q year ago,
when the state brought suit against the
Western Union Telegraph Company to re-
cover back taxes. Judge Sanborn of
Minnesota, at that time advised Attorney
General Crawford that the revenue law
under which South Dakota was collecting
taxes was unconstitutional, for the reason
that the bill was passed by viva voice vote,
when the constitution declares that all laws
shall Ike enacted by recorded roll call.

A terrible mining catastrophe at Som
brerete mine at Zacatecas, Mexico, was
occasioned by the breaking out of fire in
the working of two of the company's
mines in which Isl miners were employed
at the time of the fire. Every effort has
been made to save the men and fresh air is
to be forced into all the workings by great
steam ventilatOrs and water has been
turned down the main shaft in torrents,
but it is expected that every miner
is dead. Two bodies only have been gotten
out, and Superintendent Kayster nearly
persisted in an effort to save the men. The
city Of Zacatecas Is in mourning and more
than thousand miners wives and chill
dren are gathered at the mouth of the
mines where the work of subduing the
flames is going on.

A recent dispatch from Havana says:
The Marquis de Palmerola made scam
dalous personal attack on Gen. Lee We'd
nesday night in the palace, in the presence
Of several newspaper correspondents. The
incident arose because the censor refused
to pass dispatch for the correspondents
which said that the release of Scott had
been demanded because he was both ar
rested and kept q prisoner in defiance of
the law.
"Who told you that ?" shouted Gen. Pal
merola, secretary Of state for the island.
"Gen. Lee" replied correspondent,
calmly.
''Gen. Lee is liar, impostor and REBEL"
shouted the little marquis with an oath.
This incident was telegraphed merely to
show how the wind is blowing in the
palace, and to let everyone see what must
be the treatment aud position Of an or
binary citizen there when our consul
general is revilcd openly in such manner
by one of the heads Of the government.
