brother of the groom. The rest of the

Miss Fairs wedding gown was made
in Paris. The foundation was ivory
satin, cut with long train. This ma
terial was covered with fine point
d'esprit Of creamy tint, correspond
ing to that of the satin. Instead of
point lace, old cream colored Irish lace,
which is somewhat heavier in texture,
was used in appliqued designs all over
the gown. Lengthwise insertions
trimmed the front of the skirt, the
train was bordered with deep edging,
and the upper part of the corsage was
entirely of the lace. The sleeve
reached barely to the elbow and was
partly of lace and point d'esprit. She
wore a veil of tulle.

SCHUBERT Club PROGRAMME.


Whatever may .ba said in detraction OF
st. Paul I'M directions which relate to ar
tistic CULTURE. 9Re can I fattfuiFy say
that in the cultivation of music our PEG,
pie will not compare favOrably With those
of any Western city of equal population.
For this gratifying. condition we are In
great measure indebted to the ladies and
gentlemen who constitute the active
membership of the Schubert club.
The official circular of that admirable
organization, published in these columns
today, outlining the programme of the
organization for the next year, should
receive the enthusiastic attention of our
music-loving society. 1t is such pro-
ssra,nrnc as is worthy of the most adj
vanced condition OF musical cultivation
IL presents the members Of that organi-
cation to view. not only as devoted to
The divine art. but as citizens who are
ready to sacrifice themselves in the cause
If the enjoyment and artistic develop
,nent of the pedp1e.
There are too few OF us at best willing
to give our enerrgiePs and requirements to
any public cause at any great sacrifice
of personal interest OF convenience. The
ladies and gentlemen of the Schubert
club show an example in the zeal and
seif-sacrifice Which they manifest in
their arrangepaents for the forthcoming
series of concerts such as Is worthy
If emulation BY every class in the COM
,nunity which has any sense Of devotion
to the eeneralg we'll being.
1t will he noted that the circular Is
sued does not bespea's any serious demand
OH the resources of our people. The prices
announced for season tickets are such as
ss,ew- the pecuaiary sacrifice involved 10
ba entirely on the side of the members
ard patrons of the CLUB. Rarely i'll any
community, and never through the usual
channels Of private enterprise Is such an
opportunity given to the lovers OF music
to erisy the highest expressions of NIL
steal art as afforded through the pro-
erarnme OF the Schubert club.
The G o b e most cordially unites with
the members of the advisory committee
In commencing tosthe people of st. Paul
the admirable series Of concerts which
have been announced to take plaee~during
the approaching winter and spring, and
in urging the public to extend to them
their most generous Faro mage. 1t rep
resents an effort on behalf of public cu!-
'ture, and an interest in the higher forms
of public enjoyment, which should receive
tire largest measure of appreciation The
community wEaith is not willing to re-
.spond in a sniqlssff spirit to such devotion
and pubic spirit gas is shown by the Schu-
bert club in organizing these concerts
reflects seriously on its own worthiness
of the enlightened devotion of its mem
hers.

HONoRING DEWEY.

The magnitude of the scale on which
the arrangements are being made for the
reception of Admiral Dewey on his return
home is a splendid reflection of the ma
tional disposition. 1t bespeaks gratitude
unlimited, patriotism which fails to meas
ure cost, and admiration of high personal
achievements such as only an entirely
generous people could put in execution.
The occasion is truly a great one, and
the man is equal to the occasion. Prompt
ly on the call of duty, without thought
Of cause or consequence, the hero of
the hour turned the prows of his squad
ron toward Manila, and in a few brief
hours destroyed the naval prestige of a
nation with whom the world up to that
time had declared we were navally unfit
ted to contend. Confronted by the pres
ence of submarine mines in river and bay
he serenely gave his order to advance,
quietly remarking in answer to spoken
warnings: This Is another case of Mobile
bay"
Events at Santiago, so soon following
Oh the wake of Dewey's victory at Man
liza, have in no degree dimmed the glory
of that victory. 1t will live in naval his
tory as one of the greatest recorded
triumphs of skill and heroism.
Only residents and visitors will partfci-
pate in person in the New York .celebra-
ton of the great event; but. everywhere
thrC ughout the land, the hearts Of the
masses will join in the spirit of gratitude
and pride from which the celebration has
sprung.
There may be men whose personal
worthiness is disregarded on such occa-
sions as this. The achievement honored
is taken to represent the man. and no
account made of the personal character
istics of him who is sought to be honored.
1t is not the case in this instance. His
cCurtrymen, of all ranks, classes and
forms of opinion, politically and other
wise, recognize that George Dewey is
typical of all that is most admirable in
American character. Coel-heaGed and
modest, rising to the requirements of a
situation which called for the highest
craftsmanship, as well as for the highest
moral and physical courage, he has never
at any time spoken word or assumed an
attitude which the nation was not ready
to ratify Internationally.
The people which holds out such re-
wards for faithful service in great ma
tional crises deserves to be well served.
It fittingly recognizes its own ado, ] pres
tige. as the result of its citizens caring,
while setting premium on the display
of heroisrl and loyalty, when the occa-
sion calls for such display.
