The sudden death OF Anton Scidl in New
York last Monday caused o. profound SELL
vation and much sorrow in musical circles.
An autopsy proved that death was the
result of acute gastritis, the result OF some
Irritant poison, which could not be deter
mined, probably spoiled fish. Seidls body
was buried Thursday from the Metropoli-
tan Opera house, the scene OF many Of his
friumphs.
or his work it was said q short time ago:
"Anton Seidl is probably better musician
than Thomas. AS conductor, he excels In
the music of the German school, toward
which his sympathies and taste Incline. An
intimate associate of Wagner, he under
stands thoroughly the aims and intentions
Of the hero Of Baireuth, and as conductor
Of Wagners scores he is unrivaled, at least,
In this country. OF a thoroughly artistic
temperament, he Is sometimes more OF the
poet than the drill master. A thorough
master of Instrumentation, he knows the
full value of orchestral effects. His read
ings of Beethoven symphonies are not as
acceptable as those of Theodore Thomas,
but among the compositions of Wagner,
Liszt. Bcrlioz, Brahms and their confreres
his dramatic nature has full play"
That enterprising and delightful youth,
Charles w. Strine, who will be remembered
as Sousa's advance man, has commenced
to lombard us with Melba notices. 1t be-
gins to look as If the Melba engagement at
Hazards pavilion at the end of this month
may be realized, but nothing definite has
come to hand at present.

FoR half a century Englishmen hav,
been trained 10 regard any interference
with commercial and industrial compe.
tition as a kind of immortality. Any.
thing in the nature of a bounty Or sub.
sidy or grant to any industry is sure to
meet with very formidable opposition
without reference to its specific merits
The attempt to manufacture sugar from
beet-root instead of sugarcanc is nearly
az old as the century. Napolean pro-
hibited the importation Of cane sugar,
really for the reason that it was kept
out OF France by the blockade, but os-
tensibly for the reason that beet sugar
was better. But it is only within the
last quarter of IA century that the com
petition has become formidable. 1t has
been made So by the system Of bountics
adopted by the beet sugar growing
o)untries, and it has for some years
been SO successful that there is small
profit in raising sugar cane. The sugar
growers of the British West Indies COM
plain of this, very naturally, and ask for
duties on beet sugar which shall count
ervail the Continental bounties. The
effect of imposing such duties would Of
course h to raise the price of sugar to
the British consumer. Mr.. Chamberlain
objects to this because among other
1,asons, the industry that would be pro-
tected produces but 100000 tons, while
the British consumption amounts to
1,5OO,oOO tons. What he proposes is,
therefore, Il bounty to the British sugar
planters to "countcrvai' the bounty
which enables the growers OF beet sugar
to undcrscll them. Nothing is easier
than to say that the British consumer
ought to take the benefit Of the foreign
bountes, and the colonial planter ought
to look out for some more profitable
crop, and in the meanwhile to resign
himself to starvation. But it takes Il
wcll-scasoncd economist to apply this
remedy. 1t seems likely that Mr.
Chamberlain's measure will be adopted
with such prccaution: as will make the
effect OF it not to continue losing bust
ness. but TO soften the transition in the
British West Indies from sugar growing
to some other industries. The British
possessions are no worse off than the
rest Of the West Indies. II is worth
noting that the troubles Of Cuba are only
in part political and in as great part
economical. Free Cuba could no more
grow its former staple to advantage than
can Jamaiaa and British Guiana,

THE Chester Republican says: "Two
men who claim Wilmington, DEL, as
their place of residence, were arrested
yesterday afternoon by Officer Reddng.
The two men were peddling medicine
and calling at Officer Redding's house
insisted upon selling some OF their wares
to the policeman's wife. The men could
not produce a license when arrested, say
ing thai they manufactured the goods.
They were taken to the City Hall and
later were advised to leave town. The
aivice was acted on with alacrity."
When it is recalled that the two men re-
quired no license and that officer Red
ding could be prosecuted for demanding
one, and that the two men could recover
substantial damages for their unwar-
ranted arrest the City OF Chester should
be happy that ''the advice was acted on
with aiacrity."

 There is no doubt" continued Mir. Dobson, that a great many men will go to the mines who have no business to go there, nor anywhere else outside the confines of civilization. Some of them are men who are physically un- able to bear the rigors of the climate and others are men whose moral na- ture will make it hard for them to thrive in that climate. It's the un,- healthiest place on earth for crooks Some way or other, they can't stand the climate-they are of necessity short lived in that section.
 Then, again, doubtless a great many men will go poorly equipped with provisions, clothing and many other necessities, and they will surely suffer. All that go to that country should take in at least a years pro- visions and a full complement of the various articles absolutely indispens- able to a miners life in that region. Those who make the pilgrimage in the future will have a very great ad- vantage in being able easily to ascer- tain just what is needed-thus bene- fitting from the hard experience of the pioneers in Alaskan mining"
