the central and eastern parts, Ameri-
can classes have been forced from
their homes into the nearest towns,
where they were without work or
money. Local authorities in the sev-
eral towns, however kindly disposed,
are unable to relieve the need Of the
common people and are pOWerleSS to
aid our citizens. The latest report
from Consul General Lee estimates
that from six TO eight hundred Ameri-
Cans are without means Of support. l
have assured him that provision will be
made immediately to relieve them aud
to That cod l recommend that Con-
gress make an appropriation of fifty
thousand dollars, 10 De Immediately
available for use under the direction
Of the Secretary IF State 1t is de.
sirable thar part Of the sum which
may be Appropriated by Congress
should be III the discretion OF the Sec
rotary Of state to be also used for the
trans pOTtation OF American citiZ ,Es
who desire to return To the Ullted
States and are without means to
do so.
Following the reading of the mes
sage, a resolution enactiug the PTesi-
dents recommendation was prepared
by the Senate Foreign Relations Com
mittee and was considered Immediate
ly and passed
There was no debate, except brief
speech by Senator Galiver, who said
the government ougnG to recognize
belligerency.

DELIGHTFUL CONCERT.
Salem Orchestra, Miss Rondthaler
Salem Philharmonic Society.


Salem Philharmonic Society.
a very delightful concert was that
given, Friday evening, in the fine As
sembly Hall of the new Salem Boys
sisted by Miss Alice Rondthaler,
soprano, and the Salem Philharmonic
Society. with Mr.. w. j. Peterson as
director, and Miss A Van Week as
accompanist.
With such a combination of musi-
cal talent it was very natural that the
audience should expect an entertain
ment OF unusual merit, and that this
anticipation was fully realized is at
tested by those who were so fortunate
as to attend.
While the different features of the
programme were subjects Of appre
citation aud applause, the sweet, strong
and flexible voice of Miss Alice ROnd-
thaler was the special object of ad
miratiOn and elected strong encOreS
Cultivation has bestowed additional
charms to the naturally fine voice of
this talented young lady, and, doubt
less, high reputation as soprano
singer is within her grasp
The following was the programme
Of the evening:
Schlepegrell. ''The Golden Sceptre" Over
ture.
Dancla. ''Petites Symphony" Violin
Duet.
Messrs. S. E. Peterson and G. E Butner.
Shafer. Battle Song.
Male Quartette
Gungl. "Die Hydropaten." WaltZes.
Meyerbeer. Aria from 1.-The Huguenots.' -
Soprano Solo.
Miss Alice Rondthaler
Gounod. Faust Selection.
Bocherini. Celebrated Menuet
Horn. Cherry Ripe" Soprano Solo.
Miss Alice Rondthaler.
Kuecken Expeci alton Song. Cornet Solo.
Mr. Jas f. Peterson.
Sullivan. '.Sun of Peace Shine Full and
Far" From Sea and Shore"
Philharmonic Society and Orchestra.
The Salem Orchestra is one of the
finest in the South and sustained its
well earned reputation upon this occa-
sion.
The violin duet. by Messrs. S E
Peterson and G. E Butuer, aud the
cornet solo. by Mr.. Jas. E Peterson,
are deserving of special merit.
The DEMONSTRATION of the last, num-
Der was the work of a home musician
and reflected much credit upon the
composer.
Another feature of enjoyment was
the Battle Song" by the double
male qudrtette.
The attendance upon the Concert
was not at all commensurate with the
merits of the entertainment, but this
is accounted for, in part at least, by
| the Indictment weather.
