Rev. IT. y. Morrison, of the Church OF

FIVE HOURS PIANO PRACTICE.

AS TO the number of hours that should
be spent in daily practice, LeschetiZky
the famous Vienna teacher, and the in
structor OF Paderewski, says it depends
very much upon the pupils power OF con-
centrating his mind upon what his fingers
are doing-fve hours he would call maxi
mum, and less IS better. Don't practice
so many hours" he is always saying,
but use your brain more while you are
practicing. Learn to listen 10 what you
are playing-to listen! How few there
are who know how to listenw And then,
to illustrate his meaning, he will strike
two notes in succession, say G. and ID, and
show what changes and shadings Of
meaning may be effected by varying the
time and tone quality. little strengthen
ing here a holding back there, the quicken
ing of a pulse, the change of an accent
these make all the difference between soul
and clay. between art and artifce, but it
takes a listening brain 10 feel them. Per-
haps-and indeed, ii is so regarGed-this
habit is one of the most precious of the
many really precious things that Les
chetizky develops in his pupils.
And then there is the habit he is always
counselling of practiceing away from the
piano; not practicing with the hands, but
with the mind, by thinking out a piece.

as to what was the object of his recent
letter TO the State authorities in rela-
ton 10 Confederate cemeteries, General
Marcus j. Wright, of the War Records
Office. said he was not in a position to

direction OF Colonel Ainsworth. OF the

war records, and he referred me TO that
officer for a reply. When | called by APP
pointment to-day, Colonel Ainsworth
said there was no special Significance in
the matter of obtaining information re-
garding the Confederate cemeteries. The
purpose Of the War Records Office was
to have at hand, whenever II should be
wanted. full information on all subjects
regarding the war. Somehow or other
the Confederate cemeteries had been
overlooked, and recent developments. for
Instance, the Presidents trip through
the South, revealed the fact that the

nation as TO the location or names OF

PRESIDENTS SPEECH SUGGESTED
TT

IT.
The chief object of General Wrights
recent letter was to obtain accurate in
formation concerning the cemeteries so
that when u is needed no matter by
whom. the Records Office will BE- in a
position 10 furnish il. He said: 1--WE
have full information about the national
cemeteries. but absolutely none about the
Confederate cemeteries. The informa-
ton now asked for should have been Sc
cured long ago. / don't sec how II has
been overlooked and ] am glad come
thing occurred which showed how neces-
sary IL is 10 have complete statements
and statistics regarding the Confederate
cemeteries and the dead inferred i'm them.
1t is believed, of course when this in
formation is received and compiled I'm a
general statement, that the President
will make use of it in a special message
TO Congress, with view to securing the
necessary legislation to carry out the
views he expressed at Atlanta.
REASSEMBLING OF CONGRESS.
The reassembling of Congress after the
holiday recess was peculiarly quiet and
dull. The Senate, after receiving the
Paris treaty of peace, referring it to the
Committee on Foreign Relations. and pay
ing a tribute to the late Senator Morrill,.
| adjourned in respect TO the memory Of
| that statesman, after a Efteen-minutes'
session. The same body will probably
meet tomorrow and adjourn until the fol-
| lowing Monday, when the business of the
session will begin in earnest.
The House took up the Alaska bill, and
very soon both floor and galleries were
| almost deserted.
Senator Martin was present In his seat
in the chamber during the brief session
| to-day Senator Daniel is absent in Cuba.
DANIELS VISIT TO HABANA.
There is a good deal of speculation as
TO the object Of Senator Daniels visit 10
| Cuba Just at the time Of the turning over
Of the government by the Spaniards to the
| Americans. Some thought IL was to IA
miliarize himself with the conditions
! there. and particularly 10 ascertain the
capacity of the Cuhans for self-govern-
ment; others said IL was 70 post HIM
self thoroughly before voting on the treaty
! Of peace, and still others had al
! together different explanations OF the OBJ
| ject of the Senator's trip. They were
nearly all at sea. Senator Daniel went
| down during the holidays on a visit TO his
son, Lieutenant John W. Daniel, Jr., OF
| the regular army. who is now on duty in
| Habana. He is looked for at home in q
| few days.
Representatives Lamb, Hay. Riyey, and
| Swanson were present I'm the House to-
day. Messrs. Jones and Otey had not
arrived.

The EXCELLENCE OF SYRUP OF figs

is due not only to the originality and
simplicity of the combination, but also
to the care and skill with which it is
manufactured by scientific processes
known to the CALIFORNIA Flo SYRUP
Co. only, and we wish to impress upon
all the Importance of purchasing the
true and original remedy. AS the
genuine Syrup of Figs is manufactured
by the CALIFORNIA FIG SYRUP Co.
only, a knowledge of that fact will
assist one in avoiding the worthless
limitations manufactured by other par
ties. The high standing of the CALI
FoRNIA FIG SYRUP Co. with the medi-
cal profession, and the satisfaction
which the genuine Syrup of Figs has
given to millions of families, makes
the lame of the Company guaranty
of the excellence of its remedy. II is
far in advance of all other laxatives,
as it acts on the kidneys, liver and
bowels without irritating or weaken
