guished their company as a notable or

scented is considered the best effort of
one Of the brightest Of American
dramatists, and has already won great
favor in other cities. Clyde F1tch's

is a brilliant society drama dealing
with incidents, humorous and serious,
among New York's 400" There is
surroundings, contrasted strongly with
the seriousness and even tragedy of

In Mus,c's Realm.

Every effort is being bent by the
management of the Library Schubert
club concerts to make the series,
financially, a success.
1t Is necessary that 1000 tickets, COW
ering the series of concerts, should be
sold. The price at which these tickets
are placed on sale-S6. 25-should call
out q ready response. This places each
concert at about 80 cents. These tick
cts are on sale at the music stores,
and the purchaser, beginning Monday,
will be able to reserve seats for the en-
tire season If he or she so desire.
The Thomas concerts will open the
concert series. The first concert, Dec.
i, will be under the Library Schubert
club agreement, and two extra con-
certs will follow, Dec. and 8.
Manager Feldhauser reports that
there has been a favorable reception of
the announcement Of the Thomas or
chestra concerts and that tickets are
selling readily. He has personally dis
posed of a large block and Is work.

cess of the seasons enterprise. This
will be more than assured If representa-
tive audiences can be got out for the
three Thomas concerts. Every effort
will be made to accomplish this end. If
citizens cannot De got OUT from purely
artistic motives. then their patriotism
will be attacked.
The reserve seat ticket sale for the
concerts are obtainable at Howard,
FarweM & Co.'S, where beginning
Monday, it will be possible to obtain
tickets for one or more concerts of the
Thomas orchestra The tickets. pur-
chased In this way win, however, be at
a higher rate than purchased in con-
nection with a season ticket.
1t looks as If st. Paul alone was to
have the best musical features this sea-
son. Up to date Minneapolis has not
made any announcement. A series Of
entertainments OF minor note have
been announced by the Institute OF Arts
and Letters, and the probability Is
that ST. Paul can, under the manage
ment of MIR. Feldhauser secure the DO
sition which the city merits, that of
being the musical and art center of
the state. A block of seats for the
Thomas concerts will be placed on sale
in Minneapolis.

that the ball VIII be kept rolling.

sOUsA AND HIS BAND.
They VIII Be at the Metropolitan
Next Sunday.


Sousa and his peerless concert band
are again embarked upon another of
those remarkable transcontinentaA
tours. Before the end Of the season
late next May, the band will have play
ed in every town and city of any con-
sequence in the United States and Can
ada No musician is more generally
known or enjoys greater popularity
than John Philip Sousa. Musicians ad,
nire him for his originality and his
thorough knowledge of his art; the
members of his organization for his
complete musical mastery over them
The concert going public regard him
highly for his musical tact and felicity
in ministering to the tastes of all
classes, and also as the composer of
original, catchy and easily comprehen-
sible marches and other compositions
of a more pretentious character. His
operas of Gel Captain" '"The Bride
Elect" and 1.-The Charlatan" have been
more widely and generously applauded
and enjoyed than almost amy comic
operas in Americas musical history.
Tt is because Sousa is so near to the
public heart in all he does that his
annual advent in this city Is always
the most welcome musical event of the
season. The people who patronize the
Sousa concerts do so with the full con-
viction that their favorite conductor
will give them such music as they like
to hear, and he never disappoints them.
1t is announced that Mr.. Sousa, will
conduct his famous band in grand con.
cert at the Metropolitan Sunday, Nov.
Is, matinee and evening, with Miss
Maud Reese Davies, soprano, and Miss
Dorothy Hoyle, violiniste, as principal
soloists. These young ladies are said
to be artists Of pronounced abilities.

with so much enthusiasm that he soon
completed one act and part of another
AT this point the comedian and the
composer disagreed upon terms and
arbitration was found impossible. VIII
son has never been accused of being
a spendthrift and his lnvariable rule
was to purchase outright and never
pay royalties. Sousa refused to take
less than $1,000 for three-act piece
and Wilson refused to pay more than
$1,000. Accordingly they agreed to dis
agree and Sousa put his music back
in his portfolio while Wilson secured
another composer. The opera was fin
ally produced under the title of 1.-THE
Devils Deputy" and has been forgot
ten now for some years. About this
time Sousa signed a contract with
