MUSIC AND DRAMA.
MOZART SYMPHONY CO

MOZAEI SYMPHONY co.
Y. NJ. c. a. benefit concert at the First
Methodist church, Saturday evening. April
q. Below is given something of two Of
the members:
Mr.. Richard Stoelzer-This well known
artist was born in Leipzig, Germany, and
IS graduate Of the conservatory Of that
name, Very few musicians graduate with
more marked ability than this gentleman,
and surely none have become more dis
tinguished, for shortly after his conserva-
tory course we find him a leading soloist
in the Crystal Palace symphony Concert
and Enterpe Concerts.
Under the direction Of such eminent
directors Slit, Nickisch, Rheinecke, Wag-
ner and other renowned composers. Herr
Stoelzer came to America some years ago
TO look over the musical field and was so
pleased by the manner IN which first class
musicians were appreciated in America
that he concluded to accept one Of the
very important engagements offered and
become an American, since which time
he has performed valuable services under
Thomas. Ardid, Damrosch and Seidl.
For many years Herr Stoelzer was princi-
trail club, which position he only recently
resigned to become interested in the
Mozart Symphony club. He is an ar
dent worker in the musical world, and
one whom everybody throughout the
land admires for the excellent technique,
shading and expression he displays on
that most difficult of instruments, the
Viola glamour.
Herr Theodor Hoch-Graduate of the
Musical Conservatory at Berlin and bearer
Of a special gold medal bestowed upon him
with honorable mention by Emperor Ma
poleon III, for his wonder work. on the
cornet during a series Of grand concerts
in the French capital He was soloist in
the famed Kaiser Frank band, of the Ger
man empire, and leading cornet soloist
with Johann Strauss Laganback band.

took part in a tour through Hungary. and

THREE DAYS OF MUSIC
0ratori Messiah to be Given
in Wichita
DURING THE CONGRESS
Of Trans-MissiSSippi States
Which Meets May 81.

Arrangements are being made now to
have the oratorio Messiah" given in
Wichita at least two, and probably three,
evenings this year, while the Trans
Mississippi Commercial congress Is in ses-
sion. The congress meets May 81 and
June l, and 3, and the rendition OF the
messiah would add greatly to the coca
sion. There Will be probably thousand
visitors in the city at that time, owing to
the reduced rates on railroads, and II
President Mckinney comes, which seems
probable at this time, there will be 21Vb
people here. If the oratorio is given it
will not only add to the entertainment and
pleasure of the visitors, but it VIII adver-
tise the city as no other feature Of a three
days meeting can.
The proposition now is to give the
oratorio for three nights in succession, but
quite a number are of the opinion that it
will be risky to undertake three nights,
the second year, unless a guarantee is Sc
cured, or unless it is definitely known that
President Mckinley is coming.
The expense of the singers this year will
be a thousand dollars or more, depending
upon the time for which they are secured.
Mrs. Geneva Johnstone Bishop has prom
Used to be here without faE this year. and
other singers Of equal note have been Sc
cured already. II is probable that the
chorus viii be increased this year, SO
that the great success of a year ago Will
be even surpassed. The Trans Mississippi
congress win bring hundreds Of the lead
ing men from all over the west to Wich-
tia for the first time. and the advantage
OF having the oratorio given at that time
is apparent.

In NenlOFian.

Mrs. Laura Buchanan, who was brought
to Wichita some weeks ago from her home
in Oklahoma for medical treatment, died
last Saturday at p. m, and her funeral
occurred Monday at 2:SO p. m. from the
home Of her parents, Mr.. and Mrs. Dod-
son, who live at 324 North First street
The funeral was conducted by c. H. Ware
ham, pastor of the First Baptist church,
assisted by ]. II. Fazel, pastor of the Oak
Street Presbyterian church. The choir of
the Oak Street church was present and
had charge Of the music. Mrs. Buchanan
was a Baptist and died in strong gospel
faith, mournad 10y husband, father,
mother and six sisters. The funeral was
largely attended and she was buried in the
Eggleston Post lot in the west cemetery.
Mrs. Buchanan was born near Danvlne
Ind, and was at the time of her death

Thou art gone to the grave, but We will
not deplore thee,
Since God was thy ransom, thy guardian,
thy guide;

OF the ruling of the court on the admitted
documents.
Mr.. Rothermel read the letters which
were written to Hopkins by Mr.. Quay, and
which have been printed. giving the cash
Ter instructions how 10 proceed in certain
stock transactions and requesting him in
some instances to obtain the money neces-
sary to purchase other stock. To each OF
these letters the defense formally object
ed, on the ground that they are irrelevant
under the Indictment The objection was
ovrru.ed and an exception noted in each
instance.
An agreement between counsel followed
the offer of the letters dated July 81, 1886,
from State Treasurer Haywood to Presi-
dent McManes, OF the bank. and found in
Hopkins desk. the defense Directing on
the ground that Haywood was dead and
was not a defendant. and that it was in
admissible because of the statute of limi-
tations. The letter in question advises the
bank that upon the granting of loan Of
100000 to Richard R. Quay the state de-
post will be increased from 100000 to
100000 and not reduced until the Quay
debt is paid. Accompanying the letter is
a note for 500, 900 signed by State Senator
Arthur Kennedy and Richard r. Quay
and Endorsed by Senator Quay, and Mr..
Rothermel proposes to show from the
minute book of the bank that the direc-
tors agreed to make the loan upon the
production of a certain letter from Hay
wood, the letter being the one in question.
Mr.. Rothermel said the note was not
paid until after the failure of the bank in
1898 The judge admitted the .etter.
George S. Graham who was district at
torney when the prosecution was first
brought against Mr.. Quay, was the next
witness. He identified two kilograms sent
by Quay to Hopkins, which, he said, Mr..
Quay admitted having sent to the cashier.
One of these is the plum tree" telegram.
Mr. Quay's attorneys objected to their
admission.
Albert L. Tabor, teller of the bank, iden-
titled 217 Of the banks books, which are in
evidence Mr.. Tabor was recalled for the
purpose of identifying the entries in the
bank books. The apparent hopelessness of
reaching the end of testimony of this sort
led both judge and counsel again to make
an effort to adjust matters After half an
hours discussion the district attorney sug-
gested an adjournment until tomorrow. In
the meantime, he said, he would confer
win the counsel for the defense, and both
sides would come prepared to go ahead on
som definite plan. Court then adjourned
at 2:40 o'clock until TO a. m. tomorrow.

IS 1T DURABLE?
A Question often Asked by Those
Afflicted With Piles.

Is a strained joint durable? Is local in
Illumination durable? OF course If prop
erly treated. So are piles.
People become afflicted with piles and
ask some old Chronic" who has always
persisted in the wrong treatment and
naturally discourages them by telling them
that their case is hopeless.
They in turn discourage others and thus
a disease that might in every case be
cured by skiIlful and careful handling IS
allowed to sap the energy of thousands
who might free themselves of the trouble
in a few days.
Pyramid Pile Cure will cure the most
aggravated case Of hemorrhoids in an as
tonishingly short time. It relieves the
congested parts, reduces the tumors in
stanuy, no matter how large, allays the
inflammation and stops the aching or itch
ing at once.
Thousands who have resorted to expens-
i've surgical treatment have been cured
by the Pyramid Pile Cure-in a number
Of instances persons who have spent
months in a hospital under a pile spe-
cialst
1t is a remedy that none need fear to
apply even to the worst aggravated, swoll-
en- and inf1amed hemOrrhoidal tumors.
This remedy is no longer an experiment,
but a medical certainty. It is manufac-
tured by the Pyramid Drug Co, Marshall,
Mich.
Druggists sell it at 80 cents per box. It
is fast becoming the most popular pie
cure the country has ever known and
druggists everywhere are ordering it for
their customers

The Ware murder mystery ut Bucks
port seems to be complicated by rivalry
of detectives. One detective is alleged
to have secured the so-called confession
Of the witness Fogg by threats and prom
ises of reward; and the exposure OF this
tran saction seems to have come about
through the fundamentally of another
detective. The deputy sheriffs, selectmen
and other constituted authorities seem to
be taking the parts of first, second and
third citizen, while the detectives play
the star parts.
