In order to get Z perfect evenness. He
advised as daily studies the etudes Of
the Schulz der Fingerfertigkeit" OF
Czerny, especially the first three stud
les, which ought to be played every
day, slowly and with large tone. In
his choice of pieces to be played he OBJ
himself to a special composer or spe-
cial school of composers.
Generally while his pupil played for
him he was sitting at another piano,
sometimes letting her play the given
work all through, in order to judge of
its general conception, but more often
stopping her very frequently, making
some remark or playing himself the
phrase he wanted to correct and max
ing her repeat it over and over again
until she understood perfectly his idea
and gave to It the correct intefprota-
ton.
He advised studying pieces page by
page and measure by measure, very
slowly, with a big tone, with each land
separately, not going any further be-
fore one had perfected, or, rather, al
most perfected, the preceding part of
the work
Paderewski is also most careful in
the way of using both pedals, which he
considers an art In itself. His pupil
adds: 1T is the nature of this man to
do good everywhere he possibly can.
1t seems vital necessity to him, and
l think this nobility of nature is one
Of the chief characteristics of his art
also and makes his playing so excep-
tional, SO great and so noble"

The President elect Of Brazil, SENIOR
Campos SALES, whose inauguration Will
take place in November, is now travel
ing through Europe, and he may return
to Rio Janeiro by way Of the United
States, for he has often manifested his
desire to be acquainted with the great
sister republic of the north, which has
much assisted the new republic Of Brazil.

commerce and industry recently rendered
Senior Campos Sales a. grand banquet

Respectfully,
w. e PATTON,
Ex-Manager Mitchell Opera House.
Mr.. Patton's letter head suggests
that the competition which has thrown
him out OF theatre management has its
compensations, as he is thereon desig-
mated as "City Bill Poster, Distributor
and Sign Tacker."
1.-THE Turtle" a musical comedy to
be produced in America shortly by
Florence Ziegfeld, has had run in
Paris two years. at gets it's peculiar
name, said Mr.. Ziegfeld 'The Turtle, y
from the fact that the principal come
dy character buys turtle for his wife,
with whom he is constantly quarreling.
In the first act he carried the turtle in
his pocket. He quarrels with his wife,
who always wanted a turtle as pet,
and in disgust throws it through the
window. 1t goes straight on into the
window OF friends house, and alights
in soup tureen-probably filled with
mock turtle soup. The friends picks
the turtle up and throws it back. 1t
strikes the original thrower in the
face. This is merely an incident that
leads to the separation Of husband and
wife, and hubby then goes on a chase
for another woman. The complica-
lions that ensue are rather risky, but
not vulgar" How about the disrob-
ing act that Sadie Martinez is to do?
<Ja,o CHI %ol of
WELL" replied Mr.. Ziegfeld, miss
Martinez will have to take off "a great
deal, If she plays her part as her
French prototype does. She has to
undress and go to bed in full view Of
the audience. Yet the act is not OBJ
jectionable."
There was a rumor about town yes
terday that Ignace Paderewski, the eel
ebrated pianist, had lost the use of two
fingers, and that he would probably
never be able to play the piano again.
The report appeared to come solely
from an English provincial paper. j.
Ignace Paderewski was born in Kuri-
lowka, in Podolia, Poland, on Novem-'
Der 6, 1860. He attributes his musical
talent to inheritance from his, mother.
He began learning to play the piano
when he was six years old, but his
teachers were not good ones, and he
suffered under other disadvantages,
which would probably never have been
overcome but for the wonderful abili-
ty which was a part of himself and
quite above all teaching He went to
the conservatory at Warsaw when he
was twelve years old, and he had the
honor of being expelled from that in
stitution three times. But he went on
studying, and he made concert tour
in Poland and Russia when he was six
teen years old This probably helped
him more than any corresponding
amount of study In school would
have done But he got diplomat at
Warsaw and was elected professor OF
music there when he was eighteen. A
year later he married, and another
year later his wife died From this
time he devoted himself exclusively to
music. He was professor of music at
the Conservatory at Strasburg when he
was only twenty.

PadereWski's Female Rival.

Mrs Fannie Bloomfield-Z of
Chicago, has mild grievance against
the musical appreciation, or rather the
lack of appreciation, of her fellow coun-
trymen and women. She had played
at concerts and recitals in many of the
important cities of the United States,
and while it was generally conceded
that she was possessed of great ability
as a performer on the pianoforte the
praise was in most instances so grudg-
ingfy given as TO leave the impression
upon the reader that it was not thor
oughly sincere. She is now in Eur
ope, and to say that she has created

stress upon producing beautiful

would be putting it mildly. There are
those who declare that she is the great
Paderewskis equal, and whether this
be so or not it is certain that the
Chicago lady was considered a worthy
substitute for the Pole with the
chrysanthemum locks when that artist
was unable to fill an engagement at
the recent Lower Rhine festival at
Cologne. Now that Europe has set
the seal of its enthusiastic approval
upon Mrs. Observation-Disclosures work.

Most Mated Indian Of the Century

old Geronimo, chief the Apaches, is
| the most noted Indian of the wild tribes
of Nortk America He is 80 years of age
and as asatraight as an arrow. His eyes
are keen, piercing and cruel. His feet
'sre very larg-.
When at the post, old Geronimo plays
monts, a game oil cards liked very much
by the Indians, but whenever he can get
permission to leave the reservation his
time is spent in hunting, of which he is
stillvery fond.
Geronimo was with Victoria in the
Indian uprising in 1882, when SOC
Apaches We're led by her against the
whites. who llaG settled in Arizona and
bordering states.
'sihey were pursued by Lewis Terasraz
with a regiment of Mexican soldiers.
Victoria was captured and beheaded and
more than one-half of her band were
killed. Gero.5i1.o escaped, but after
bearing that Victoria had been beheaded
surrendered
He was released and became the great
war chief OF the Apaches. His band was
& terror to the early settlers of Arizona,
Mexico and New Mexico
In lSS4 Ien. tIeOrge crook was de-
tailed by the Government to capture
this band. After two years of unsuccess-
fu pursuit, Gen. Crook esigned and
Gen. Miles was given command of the
troops in pursuit
March %, 1886, Gen. Miles captured
Geronimo and his band. Terms were
made whereby they were to remain on
the reservation at Fort Bowie. Four days
later the chief and his band escaped and
began further depfedations on the whites.
Capt. Laughton was sent in pursuit and
the band was again captured The Terri
tory of Arizona letitioned the Govern
ment to have the Apaches moved to dis
tant fields After some time it was de-
cided to send the old chief and his bands
to Florida. They were closely guarded
and were not allowed to leave the post on
any preteXt.
The warm climate OF Florida and the
close confinement in the fort killed off
most of the band, and to prevent exter-
the remainder of them were re-
moved to Fort Sill, /. T.
