st. Louis Post-Dispatch: It has
been wisely said that music hath
charms to soothe the savage breast"
Verify harmonious sounds have power
to affect the kissing bug" in that di-
rection to the superlative degree, as
Mr.. Charles Colley, cornet soloist in
Prof. Guido vogels band, can testify
and give ocular proof Of Mr.. Colley
was on the program for a solo during
Prof. Vogeps band concert at Benton
Park Thursday afternoon. For his
subject he selected the kiss Me"
waltz from Merry War" The crowd
at the park admired the selection
greatly and settled comfortably on the
benches to hear the sweet-voiced cor
net send melting strains into their
ears when Mr.. Colley arose. Mr.. Col
ley stood erect and bowed in response
to the plaudits. He threw back his
shoulders, placed the cornet at the
proper angle, with the mouthpiece to
his lips. Leader Vogel tapped his
vic,in bow on the music stand in front
of him, beat the air slowly few times
and kiss Me-" softly, sweetly issued
from the cornet in a cadenza. The
strains rose and swelled in volume, the
hearts OF the listeners swelling toward
ecstasy with the music. when-dlscord
A high note jumped the track and ran
of in wall like cat call. Mr.. Colley
yanked the ccrnet down with one hand,
slapped his mouth vigorously with the
other and stamped on the floor. Prof.
Vogel stopped beating time. The other
musicians turned toward the soloist In
surprise. The audience Uttered, or
some of IT did Mr.. Colley retreated
to the rear Of the stand and was hast
lily Joined by Prof Vogel The solo
lists lips were rapidly swelling and
there was a tiny. blood-red spot visl-
bic in the center Of the swollen place.
He had been kissed by kissing bug.
Further playing on the cornet was
impossible for him. Prof Vogel made
explanations to the audience, and Mr..
Cooley sought physician.

They Are Not Rumbiing or Rapid. bnt
PIaneent and siivery.
Niagara has many voices, and some
of them are thus described by Mrs.
van Rensselaer, in the Century; "And
the noise Of Niagara? Alarming
things have been said about It, but
they are not true. 1t is a great and
mighty noise, but 1t is not, as Henne-
pin thought. an Outrageous noise 1t
is not a roar. 1t does not drown the
voice or stun the ears. Even at the
actual foot of the falls it is not op-
pressive. 1t is much less rough than
the sound of heavy surf-steadier,
more homogeneous. less metallic, very
deep and strong, yet mellow and soft;
soft, mean, in its quality. AS to the
noise Of the rapids. there is none more
musical. 1t Is neither rumbling nor
sharp. 1t is clear, plangent, silvery.
1t is SO like the voice of steep brook
much magnified. but not made coarser
or more harsh-that, after we have
known it, each liquid call from for
est hillside will seem, like the odor OF
grapevine, greeting from Niagara. II
is an inspiriting. an exhilarating
sound. like freshness, GOODNESS, vitality
itself made audible And yet 1t is
lulling sound. When we have looked
out upon the American rapids for
many days, it is hard to remember con-
tented life amid motIonless surround
ings; and so. when we have slept be-
side them for many nights, it is hard
to think OF happy sleep in an empty
silence. Still another kind of music is
audible at Niagara. 1t must be list
ened for on quiet nights, but then 1t
will be heard. 1t is like the voice Of an
orchestra SO very far away that its
notes are attenuated to an incredible
delicacy and are internationally per-
ceived. as though waited upon yaria-
bic zephyrs. 1t is the most subtitle, the
most mysterious music In the world.
What is its origin? Why should we
ask? Such fairy-like sounds ought not
to be explained. Their appeal is to the
imagination only They are so faint,
SO far away. that they almost escape
the ear, as the lunar bow and the fluted
tints of the American falls almost
escape the eye. And yet we need not
fear to lose them. for they are as real
as the deep bass of the cataracts."
