SChIey Detached, and Likely to Re-
main so Until He RetireS From
the NAVY.

Rear Admiral Schley is now detached,
according to the request made by him
self, his health being so impaired by
service during the war as to make rest
seem imperative. He could take com
mand OF a squadron, however, If 1t
We're necessary. and it has always been
agreeable to him to xerve at sea rather
than on sfere. sIntimations have been
made from time to time that he was to
be given the European station as soon
as it was considered expedient to re-
organize that squadron. 1t is possible
that when the maneuvers of the North
Atlantic squadron are ended some of
the ships of that squadron will be de-
tached to become the units OF the
squadron on the European station.
There is no present need of a force
on that station, since it is known that
the Sultan has ordered the settlement
of the American demands for idemnity
for losses to missionaries in Armenia,
but as soon as the condition of affairs
in Cuba make it plain that it will be
unnecessary to maintain large naval
! force near The islands of the West In
dies, and all the vessels that can be
possibly needed in the Philippines
have been sent to Admiral Dewey, the
European Squadron will be revived.
| Il n Admiral Schley has intimated,
1t is understood, that he would like to
have that command before he reaches
the retiring age. Unless the Secretary
Of the Navy and Bureau of Navigation
are willing to grant his desire, or un-
less the President commands that he
be assigned to the European station, it
is believed by many naval officers that
he will retire before he has enjoyed
the coveted honor His last tour at
sea began only last March. He has
not yet served a year under that as
signment.
There are other Admirals who would
like to have the European station.
With IS of them to be provided with
commands some of themETAOINETA
commands some must be disappointed,
and the difficulty of giving commands
to each of them will make it easier to
thrust Schley aside and please another
possibly one who has not been so
great annoyance to the Bureau of Nav
igation,

The following is an extract from a
comparison of DR.. Minor C. Baldwin,
concert organist, with the famous II.
Clarence Eddy.
DR.. Minor G. Baldwin, assisted by
Miss Ana Wilkens, gave an organ re-
cvital at the first Presbyterian church
last night with the following program:
/. Great Tocata" (pedal solos). Bach
2. Nearer My God to Thee" -. e..
........... Arranged by Baldwin
Miss Anna Wilkens.
4. "Pilgercsang" (Tannhauser)

5. Overture-"Tancredi" ..... Rossini
6. a. "lntermezzo" .. ....-

|. pheteI .,l,,.. a.. .,.i. Iu.,s Meyerbeer
| One afternoon in, November a year
ago pr. Baldwin handled the keyboard
of the new Hook organ in the Presby-
i'terian church and gave the members of
the congregation an idea as to the
wonders concealed behind the barri-
cade of silver pipes. Then came H.
Clarence Eddy. Eddy has reached
the point of fame where the ''Mr." is
left off his name. He stands at the
head of organists in this country But
his recital did not please the people as
well as DIR. Baldwin's. Eddy's tech
nique was magnificent. He gave a
program intolerably heavy. He sat be-
fore the keyboard and ground out
noise by the yard. 1t was good, but 1T
was monotonous. He played with no
, soul. He was mechanical, metallic.
A second visit of Dr. Baldwin does
not change my opinion of the two or
ganists. Notice the variety of the
/ Doctors program. 1t is full of light
and shadow, sunshine and clouds,
praise, prayer, love, devotion and pat
riotic sentiment. l have rot space for
a detailed criticism. but the arrange
ment of the program showed an under
standing of an audience The heavy
pedal opening maze a magnificent
background for the variations on
Nearer My God 10 Thee" 1t was a
sharp contrast and a pleasing one.
! The heavy Wagner number was fol-
/ lowed by the bright, quick eXhilarating
Tancredi. Then the spectral inter
mezzo from Mignon, followed by that
/ bit of daintiness, Gillet's ''Loin du BALI
with the soft enhancing waltz move
ment which floated through the Pres
byterlan atmosphere like stolen in
cense.
| he spectacular part OF the perform
ance was the storm. And it was a
! good storm, though a bit eXasparating
to sensitive ear drums. The lights
were put out by degrees until the
/ church was iii darkness. The wind
| howled, the lightning played, the rain
descended in sheets, trees swayed and
! snapped-it was very clever. How
real it was is best told by the fact that
little one in the center of the church
! threw its arms about its papa's neck
as the storm increased AMI exclaimed:
| "Oh, papa is it doin' to Wain?"
! The coronation march from "The
Prophet" the closing number on the
program, was followed with pretty
/ ewell-"God be With You Till We
Meet Again"
Mr.. Baldwin, assisted by Miss Evelyn
Maud Webster, vocalist, will give an
! organ recital at the First Methodist
! church Monday evening, March 18Th
at o'clock.

New Double Track,

One of the results of the recent in
spection trip of the Baltimore & Ohio
railroad lines west of the Ohio river
is an order for a double track on the
Central Ohio division from Bellaire to
Cambridge, o., distance of SO miles
This portion of the road is very much
congested with freight at all times and
the proposed improvement is in the
nature of a necessity.
1t is estimated that the second
track will cost in the neighborhood OF
one and a quarter million dol lars
There are a number of heavy grades
between Bellaire and Cambridge which
will be cut down and all of the bridges
will be replaced with new double track
steel structures. 1t will take at least
a year to complete the work.

as to always captivate their audiences.

dress scenes from the grand opera
