This is emphatically the era Of woman.
Woman in literature, woman in art.
woman in statecraft is making Ter pres,

there are at present not only interpreters
and executants of the very highest
order such as Teresa Carreno and Adele

even PLAYERS OF other orchestral instru-
ments. besides the lovely choir OF sirg-

opportunity to compete have constantly

NAV say in truth that in the department
of vocal music the superior fiexIbility OF
the vocal mechanism OF the female has

tone production at least. always the
superior Of her brother. Nor has her
success been confined to the in .erpreta-
tion alone. Woman in music means no

AN ANDREE PIGEON
Brought a Message Which Cannot
Be Read

LOGANSPORT, Ind, Sept 13.-Excite-
ment prevails in this vicinity over the
capture of carrier pigeon with mes
sage signed "Andree." The writing is
in English, but it is thought that the
explorer sent out the message in all lam
suages. The bird was first seen to fly
over a small town called Idaville, near
here, and was next seen whenit alighted
on Farmer Weekmans house in an ex'
hausted condition. ItScapture was easy
but in getting the bird down it was in
jured and died this morning. Its righ.
foot had a small aluminium band around
it, on which was inscribed mo. 21' and
the letter "a" Under the left wing was
a parchment containing some badly dis
figured writing, of which only the fol-
lowing could be read: August 20. Pole
and the next was erased. Then came the
signature, "Andree." The action of the
wing had worn the parchment and
erased the writing. The whole had beer
tied on the body Of the bird, and while
not loose, had evidently been in all kline ds
of weather
At first it was thought that practical
joke had been played, but the exhausted
condition of the bird disproved that.
