Much attention is being paid now by
St Mary's German Catholic Church to
the most devotional in church music. At
1O:S0 high mass will be celebrated today,
Marcos Opus ] being selected. At the
offertory will be sung Mendelssohn's
"Tu. Domino. Pars Nostra''-1l4th Psalm.
This is an especially fine setting to this
Psalm. The adaptor. Mr.. j. Gubing.
writes of it in this vein: ''Mendelssohn's
composition on the Psalms rank with
the most classic writer's of such music.
The noble character of these Psalms
would qualify them for the Roman SER
vice were a later text given them set
ting in organ accompaniment. The au-
thor of -Tu Domino has made the
Psalm into one of rythmic form, which
will make the work much sought after
by church librarians"
Mr.. Waldecker thinks out his services.
and when service is sung defects are
not in evidence. He is now arranging
Schubert's Mass in F, with liturgical
treatment for organ.

CUBANs ARE TROUBLESOME.
Attitude Of sullen Hostility Towar.

America.
Santiago de Cuba, Aug. 17.-Trouble
with the Cubans is. breeding. Their
attitude is one Of suIlen hostility to-
ward Americans. The better class in
Cuba favor the annexation Of the is
land to the United States, and ma
Jorlty OF the masses are ready and
anxious to work and accept the shelter
and protection afforded by an Ameri-
can protectorate, but they are in
Huenced by a certain class of rabid or
ators and breeders of sedition and re-
belllon against anything smacking of
law and order. This inflammatory
class demands and urges the recogni-
ton Of Cuba for Cubans and spurns
all offers or suggestions tending to
prosperity under an American protec-
torate and excites popular discomfort.
This is exactly the class that pushes
itself most into evidence and whose
views and opinions are most over
heard and published Their advice to
the Cubans is to repudiate
All Offers of Peace
or a cessation of hostilities and to
look upon an armiStice as an agree
ment between the United States and
Spain on their own account and not
binding upon the free and Independent
state OF Cuba whose liberating army
not only repudiates pacifcation but
will ignore the armistice to the point
OF continuing to wage war and shoot
ing every Spaniard in the field. A
wild rumor is atioat to the effect that
the Cuban army will attack Santiago
and capture it to the glory of the
Cuban arms as soon as the American
garrison is weakened. This is directly
traceable TO the same source. The in
fluence exerted by such body of men
against law and order is formidable.
This hysterical people demands sup
preston with an iron hand. While
still in embryo, this influence is al
ready felt among certain classes who
refuse to work or serve the govern
ment until a clear statement of the
freedom and independence of their
country is made clear. A knowledge
of this condition is imperative to the
holding Of future policy and to ex-
plain whatever harsh steps may be
rendered necessary in dealing with the
insurgents.

Mounting Photographs,

Amateur. photographers are often so
situated that they must mount their
own prints or leave them scattered
lost, torn or disfgured. The proper
paste for mounting them is supposed
to be unobtainable, save through ex-
pert hands, and for this reason many
valuable and interesting prints are
wasted. The very best paste for mount
ing prints is made from ordinary laun-
dry starch, not the sort that comes in
packages and is recommended for
CLOSING, but the common kind Put a
heaping teasroonful of this in a tin
vessel, pour on a very little cold water
to dissolve it, then add water enough
to make it quite thin. Have ready
little boiling water, then stir this into
the starch paste until the mixture first
grows milky-looking, then transparent
and thick. Allow this to stand until
it is cool and use at once as paste
for mounting prints. Apply with a
rather thin, fiat brush. Do not use any
more than is required to coat the paper,
and be specially careful to leave no
Jumps or puddles on the surface. Lift
the print carefully and place it on the
card in precisely the position required.
Commence at one edge and gently press
the print with paper cutter, or, for
lack of that, silver knife. This will
remove all air bubbles and cause the
print to adhere firmly to the card. Some
paper REQUIRES rolling and Furnishing.
this may be done at any time, but it is
better to use paper than does not need
this process.
