MUSICAL MENTION.
(JoHN RANDoLpH.l


On Monday, M. Harry flames made
what was practically his second public
appearance IN Lincoln, being heard at
the Matinee Musicale rooms and under
the auspices OF that organization. Mr..
Eames was heard with ardent pleasure
BY an audience which included nearly
all the prominent musicians OF this city.
The topic OF the lecture was the music
OF RussiS; it was somewhat informal in
character and was illustrated at the
piano forte by the lecturer himself. l
found the lecture both informing and
agreeable. calculated to awake an in
terest in field OF knowledge but little
titled. 1t 10 pity that it was not heard
by a larger number OF students, for it
would undoubtedly have been useful to
them. The average student OF music is
too often satisfied with six hours Of
piano forte technique when he may need
broader acquaintance with the litera-
ture of the art he strives to lean. Per.
haps the most delightful feature OF the
program Of piano forte music given by
Mr.. Eames during and after his re-.
marks was its almost unique freshness.
The blase concert goer has learned to
anticipate just so many pieces Of Chopin.

table List "Hungarian Rhal sody."
1t was refreshing to see the unfamiliar
names-Glazounow, Balakirew and
others. Moreover the compositions are
evidently we'll worthy Of study, although
at first hearing it is most obvious that
Peter Ilyitch Tschaixowsky stands
head and shoulders above the rest in
almost every respect. Nevertheless the

For His Army
Before He Will Consent to Dis
band the Men.
M'KINLEY'S OFFER
Of So, 100000 Agreed Upon
With General Garcia
Is Spurned and the Whole Ar
rangement Repudiated.

New York, Jan. 31.-A special to the
Tribnue from Washington says:
Maximo Gomez the Cuban command
sng general has demanded nearly $780,
900. 600 from the United States and re-
fuses to discharge his army until the
money is paid. He has repudiated the
arrangement made by Calixto Garcia,
who came to Washington with author
ity from Gomez to provide for the re-
turn of the Cubans to their peaceful
pursuits and whose work was barely
accomplished before his sudden death
on December IL. 1t was then agreed
that the United States, in order to Sc
cure the prompt resumption of labor on
the plantations of the island, with a
view to promoting the speedy revival
of prosperity and settled conditions,
should distribute about $30OO,O 900 among
the 10000 said to be still under arms,
in the ratio of $100 d man, the officers
in proportion to their rank to receive d
greater amount, the ordinary enlisted
men to be discharged with sums less
than 800, depending on the length Of
service and other considerations.
For over a month the pay corps of
the army has been making ready to car
ry out this arrangement, the national
defense fund being available for the
purpose Accurate lists of the soldiers
entitled to compensation had to be pre-
pared and other formalities gone
through 1t was intended that the Gu
bans at the proper time should apply at
established American garrisOns in the
various provinces, where, on throwing
down their arms and presenting the
proper credentials, they were to re-
ceiVe their quota of the allotment from
the pay officers at the stations. In the
meantime Gen. Brooke and his chief
subordinates have been endeaYoring to
give employ ment, mostly of a perma-
uent character, to large numbers of Gu
bans in order to reduce the number
time to give the inhabitants opportunity
to begin governing themselves.
WANTS THREE YEARS PAY.
Gomez has come out against this
scheme, which was operating satisfac-
torily to most Cubans, and has struck
for greater stakes. 1t is officially known
here that he is endeavoring to dissuade
Cubans from accepting office under the
American occupation and is urging all
the natives of every grade to stay with
him in the field until the United States
is compelled to accede to his terms of
disbandment
Gomez alleges that his army consists
of 10000 men and he insists that most
OF them shall be paid for three years
service at the rates which prevail in
the United States army. He fixes the
date of the Cuban declaration of inde-
pendence as Feb. "a, 1895, the begin
ming of the period for which himself and
his forces are to be remunerated and for
himself, with the rank of lieutenant gen
eral, he will be satisfied with 81, 900 an
nuallys the American rate for that
grade.
Gomez also has about twenty major
generals for each one Of whom he wants
1900 annually, and his army is
equipped with nearly 200 brigadier gen
erals, each rated according to the

Who Protest Against Resub-
mission of Prohibition.

The 500 mark has been passed in the
house in the introduction of bills. The
adjournment over Sunday had given
the members a, chance to think of a few
subjects which had not yet been touch
ed by legislation, and to prepare new
bills upon old subjects. The number
was run up during the afternoon from
479 to 507.
The legislators also brought back n
flood of petitions with them when they
returned from their respective districts.
There were ten protests against resub-
mission, some of them presented by
some of the most pronounced resubmis-
sionists in the house. Glenn Fairchild
had two such protests.
There were dozen or so petitions for
the passage of anti bill,
several for the barber bill, a protest
against the Benefiel medical bill. and
also some local petitions.

Senate Devotes Forenoon to Passage
of Proposed Laws.

There were no new bills introduced
in the senate this morning and but two
petitions. One by Senator Ryan re-
questing the passage of the bill to regu-
late the sale of patent medicines This
bill bears every appearance of being
one to hold up the patent medicine
companies and b1ackmail them into
paying for keeping the bill from pass
ing.
The other petition was by Senator
Caldwell, protesting against resubmis-
sion.
The senate then passed the following
bills, which have gone to the house for
considerations:
