Anton Seid's Successor
 Euaene YsaQe

Anton Seidl, whose sudden and untimely death a few days ago was such a painful shock to the musical world, is to be sue ceeded by his intimate friend, Wage, the violin virtuoso, as the director of the Wag- ner and Beethoven concerts. Many or Seidls musicians, augmented by number selected by Yzaye, will be immediately or ganized into a magnificent orchestra on the same lines those approved by Seidl. It has not been decided that the Philharmonic society, Seidps orchestra, or the Seidl So- ciety of Brooklyn, will be placed in Ysaye's charge, though 1t Is possible that such will be the case. The orchestra now being or ganized will be called a compliment to the Belgium leader. Ysaye was born at Liege, Belgium, and his first lessons on the violin were received from his father, who was celebrated musician. Later he graduated from the conservatory of his native town. In 1886 Ysaye was made professor of the Royal Conservatory, at Brussels. He was an intimate friend of Anton Seidl, who especially desired to have him associated with him in his musical work. In speaking of his plans, Ysaye says:
 "In organizing my orchestra l shall be careful to have plenty of young, vigorous men.
 'In Brussels I always made it rule to have at least one Belgian composer repre- sented on every programme. When l play here there will always be an American composers work given at every concert Then I shall interpret Wagner and Bee thoven as well. I shall play the violin be- sides conducting. l cannot give up my lh- strument because l am at the head or an orchestra. 1 shall form quartet of the most famous men I can find, including Ger ardy, the 'cellist. I mean to give the Amer ican people the best music that is in my power Musical taste in this country has reached a high state of cultivation, and It demands good music. want to be worthy of the shoes of my dear friend' Anton Seidl."

The Leading Malt Extra ct

Malt-Nutrine is the only really great ex- tract of malt offered on the market. Other so-caled extracts being nothing better than strong black beer with large percentage of alchohol and very small one of extract i've matter. Such extracts should not be given or recommended to convalescents or strength-seeking people, since their merits are all on the label and not in the bottle. Malt-Nutrine is prepared by the famous Anheuser-B Busch Brewing Association, which fact guarantees the purity, excel lence and merit claimed for 1t.

Samuel e. Grey stands at the head of
the Bar of this State of which he is the At.
torney General He, with his brother,
Martin p Grey, now a Vice Chancellor,
were counsel for III. G. Loudenslager in his
suit to resist the repayment Of moneys to
the Woodbury. Heights Land Company.
After the recent decision of the case by the
Court OF Errors and Appeals, Mr.. Grey
made request of the Court TO be allowed
to address il on the verdict. The request
was an unusual and exceedingly delicate
one, but out of consideration for the coun-
sells high official position and standing at
the Bar, it was granted.
The hearing took place last week, when
the learned counsel plead for change in
the verdict, arguing that Mr.. Loudenslager
had divided the profit of the transaction
with DIR. Roe, hence should not be required
to pay back to the Company the entire
amount carried by the verdict.
Justice Collins Intercepted the Attorney
General, and asked him to state some rule
or principle of law to guide the court in
taking such position. He said be know
of no such principle. nor could
recall decision that the Court could take
as guide to warrant it in saying to per-
SON who had taken illegal profits from his
partners, and had afterward voluntarily
divided them with second party, You
need pay back only the portion that
YOU kept. In other words, if yon bad
given il all away, the verdict of the Court
would have relieved you from the whole"
At this point Mr.. Grey gathered up
his papers and abandoned the case.

DEPARTMENT OF SANTIAGO.

General Lawton VIII Succeed Gem
eral Shafter in Cuba.
Washington, Aug. IA new geo.
graphical department of the army was
created last night by direction of the
president. 1t is to be known as the
department of Santiago, and is to con-
sist of all that part of Cuba which al
ready has or may in the future come
under the control of the United States.
Major General Henry w. Lawton
has been assigned to the command of
the new department, with Brigadier
General Leonard Wood and Ezra P.
Ewers as his principal officers Gen
eral Wood will continue to act as mil
itary governor of Santiago city.
The assignment of General Lawton
to the command of the new department
does not affect General Skaters COM
mand in the slightest way. The en-
tire Fifth army corps commanded by
Shafter has been ordered to the United
States, and General Shafter will return
with it. No part of the troops con-
stituting the Fifth corps will be kept
in Cuba. Quite naturally, so long as
General Shafter remains at Santiago
he will be in command of the forces
there. When he leaves he will turn
over the command to General Lawton.
The orders issued to Shafter and Law
ton with reference to the new depart
ment direct them to agree as to the
time when the command shall be
changed.
To the command of General Lawton
will be assigned two brigades of in
fantry, which will constitute the per-
manent garrison of Santiago city and

THANKS FROM DEWEY.
Expresses Gratitude to Congressma
Livingston, of Georgia.

Livingston, of Georgia.
Atlanta, Aug. Congressman Liv-
ingston, of Georgia, has received the
following letter from Admiral Dewey,
under date of July IT:
II have just learned from the last
papers that / am indebted to you for
the Introduction In the house of rep
resentatives of the resolutions extend
ing to me the thanks of congress for
the naval engagement of Manila bay,
May /.
II need hardly tell you that / am
most sincerely grateful to you as the
author of that resolution, bringing as
it does the highest honor that can come
to an American naval officer in his
professional career. But it is a great
pleasure to acknowledge my debt of
gratitude and to thank you in I'M
stinted measure for the part you took
in obtaining for me that greatest dis
tinction.
1T is a source of additional pleasure
to me, a Vermonter, that the mover of
the resolution was not a man from the
north, but one from the far south. This
is one of the good signs of the times.
In the hour of danger there is no south,
no north. but one united country. May
we never hear of sectionalism again.
There are no lines drawn in the navy.
I need not say it may interest you to
know that my flag lieutenant, Lieuten-
ant Brumby. is a Georgian by birth
and apnointment."

They Cannot Eat
FURNITURE
HENCE THE AUGUST TRADE SALE
oyERpRopucTIoN IN FuRNlruRE

UNEkFkUDUCllON AN FURNITURE.
Mechanical power in furniture
making produces too greata quantity
of everything. There are times in
the year that the factories are
obliged to stop until the excess of
stocks is turned into bread and
meat, or its equivalent, to feed the
workmen.
Even the shrewdest calculatorS
among manufacturers come to dull
periods in the year when they must
"shut down their works, " much as
they dislike it. Then merchants
may become philanthropists, if they
choose to assist in converting the
wood and labor into weekly wages
to keep the workmen's market bas-
ket going and the rent paid up until
brisk times come around again.
A PLAN NINE YEARS OLD.
Ten years ago we made this dis
covery, and nine years ago we made
some plans, which we have worked
upon successfully each year. 1t is
an entirely different thing from an
August sale of the odds and ends
of the stock, to galvanize business
in midsummer.
The real thing is novel thing
a worthy thing-a fine thing for our
customers, as well as tine manufac-
turers-this gathering from selected
workers in wood of their best we'll
proven manufactures-Such pieces
and sets, made by their best work
men, between seasons, when their
travellers could not get orders on
the road, and putting them into an
August sale, rated to cover the cost
of wood and wages.
AT THE PRICE OF WOOD AND WAGES
You see the idea. 1t keeps to-
gether and gives wages to the good
workmen, and is a benefit, without
a profit, to the furniture makers,
Nobody, SO far as we know, does
the same thing with furniture that
we do, and our August Trade Sale
is arranged for months ahead.
