BOSTON, Jan. THE Boston Commercial Bull
letin will say tomorrow of the wool market
The year opens with very firm tone to business,
thanks the fact that supplies carried over have
been shown to be much lighter than was antici-
pated The big four have not been in the mar
ket this week to any appreciable extent, and the
sales therefore represent a good healthy general
demand from the smaller mills. The tendency of
prices here is upward, notably on staple woods,
If which the supply is unusually small. The sales
the week are s. $685. eco lbs domestic and $50 900
lbs foreign, against 7,264,0O lbs domestic and
1897 lbs foreign last week 1877 coo lbs domestic
and ,44S, 900 lbs foreign for the week last
year. Tie sales to date show increase of
Sl55 500 lbs domestic and SIS, eco lbs foreign from
the sales To the same date in 1886 The receipts
to date show an increase of 2512O00 lbs domestic
and a. ia bales foreign

is MUSIC A VICE.
A Cynical View of the MeIodious
Art.
Chicago News.

Chicago News.
When the musical season is at it's height
when the clatter of pianos the Scrapings
of catgut and the wailing of the human
biped are heard from hall and theater it is
not inexpedient to inquire to what end are
all these waves of sound put in motion, says
on iconoclast. For it would sometimes
seem, especially when we are in a morose
mood as if music, though capable OF sooth-
ing the savage breast, is calculated to lead
to nothing but vague and enervating rev.
cries in the civilized human being.
There are cynics, indeed, who argue that
music is not only an immoral art, put that
it is the least intellectual of all the arts
which grace our civilization. AS matter
of fact they say, 1t does not appeal TO the
intelligence at all. Apart from words. or
some theme or story which ii Is supposed 10
illustrate it has no meaning Whatever.
Sometimes, indeed, acknowledging its i'm
potence music becomes frankly naive and
initiates the sounds Of nature, the song of
birds, the falling of rain, the swish OF the
tide or the rattle of thunder.
1t would seem, indeed, from some recent
scientific experiments on animals and rep
tiles, as If music appealed to us physically
rather than mentally, as If 1t affected the
nerves and not the intelligence. That a NOV
ing air, a subtle harmony acts directly on
the spinal cord there is not the smallest
doubt Many people can never hear the
periencng what children call the creeps
down the back As for Wagner. he lays
hold OF the whole nervous system without
ceremony, and under the pretext of telling
goddesses. proceeds to experiment on the
nervous ganglia. with the same ruthless
ferocity with which Ibsen experiments on
the brain and conscience.
And when it is all over, what then? The
musician, to be sure, has had his little
triumph. but what Of the audience that has
subjected itself to this experiment. this
species of emotional vivisection? Are It's
members ever repaid for this outcry of
nervous energy? Do they feel stronger more
virile. better able TO cope with the difficult
ties and anxieties of that real life which has
got to be lived outside the opera house and
the concert room? The cynic would say:
Certainly not. Their nervous systems
have been played on just as much as though
they had been through a course of cleo
triclty or massage. or dOuche and spray
baths. though without any of the good eff
feet of these modish forms of medical treat
ment 1ney have been juggled for couple
OF hours in a FOOLS paradise, in a fictitious
world of spurious emotion.
So we may be told that. while utlitarian
ideals will become more and more the only
ideals. music, with its enervating and SEN
timentaltzing tendencies. will gradually be
looked upon. not as dignlfied and civiliz-
ing art. but rather as one OF the minor and
more amlable vices.
