to speak Of the intrinsic worth of the former OPERA
colossal throughout, Haevy embodied the essence of
his genius, and the praise accorded it by masters
truly bespeaks his remarkable talents.
Among the innumerable operas OF the maestro,
these should be mentioned: "Charles w." La Magi-
cenne,' "Le Juf Grant "Guido ct Genevra,'
and LIE Refine de Chypre; the last named regarded
by Wagner the embodiment of the French spirit.

appeared in Paris together with LIE Val d'Andore"
(1848), shows slight decline in productive power,
ascribed by some to his carelessness in selecting
lbrettOs not for their artistic worth but for their
financial value. Among Halevy's best piano compo-
stions is sonata for fonr hands an rondo and
caprice.
AS operate composer, Haevy was of the
last great products of the French opera school, AS
the erudte scholar and indefatigabe worker

number OF works emanatng from his pen, each

Halevy. In 1886 he was appointed Member de

composer who died in 1886. He became vice presi-

and in 1915 accepted the position Of recorder. In
this capacity he has presen ted the world with mas

THE L. & n. r. r. has decided to in
crease the salaries and wages of all
officers and employees on July LIST. This
goes to show what can be accomplish
ed between capital and labor when the
good-for-nothing ''agitator" is ignor-
ed by the men. Had they gone on a
strike and refused to accept the cut,
many of them would have been with
out work eyer since. In 1893, the
times were fearfully hard and the l..
& n. was compelled to reduce expen-
ses. The salaries and wages of all
who were receiving $4,000 per year and
over were reduced 20 per cent. and
those receiving less than $1,000 were
reduced 10 per cent On July LIST. Ito
day. one-half of this cut will be res
tored. That is, those whose salary is
$1,000 and over will be increased 10
per cent and those under 81 900 will
be increased per cent 1t is said
that on January l, 1899, an additional
increase of 10 and per cent. will be
made. The L. & n. can always be
counted upon to do the right thing
and the employees will lose nothing by
having stood by the road in the hou,
of its trouble.

IMMAGINE the feelings of an army

THE manner in which Roosevelts
Rough Riders ran into a trap at La
Quasina, is fair sample of what may
be expected of a lot of over-enthusias-
tic, green soldiers, commanded by an
equally over-enthusiastic and green
mmander. Reports say these men
rushed pell-mell toward the enemy
without orders, and. more than likely,
against orders. The trouble with the
volunteers is that each one cherishes,
deep down in his heart, the hope of
being a Dewey or Hobson, and his
fondest dream is to accomplish some
thing which will bring his name be-
fore the people. In his mad desire the
average volunteer soldier does not
stop to think twice before going into
anything, and there is where the rub
comes in. We have been told by Off
GERS and men of the regular ar my that
the first lessons taught in the service
are those of taking care of and pro-
tecting ones self. TIE mode of fight
ing and pecuiiarities of the soldiers of
every nation of the world is next TAX
en- up. Having thus picked advanta-
geous ground, and knowing from
where to expect the enemy's fire, it is
an easy matter to load and shoot.
Roosevelt's, and nine out of every ten
other volunteer commanders men
know absolutely nothing of these fun
damental principles and rush in,
school-boy like, fist and skull, to wipe
the enemy off the earth. Unless these
hand-me-down colonies and generals
are relocated to the rear, it is only a
matter of a very short time until an
other butchery of American braves
will take place.
