recital:
There fsa current opinion that critics
chief delight IL to nnu fault with artists,
the greater the artist, the more 50. AS
matter OF fact a genuine critic Is never
40 happy as when he can lean back In
his seat and drink in the sweet sounds
as hs would the midwinter sunshine OF
Southern California, knowing that there
will be no dismal clouds to mar his en-
ioyment. Mime Sembrich's song recital
at Carnegie Hall last night was one or
those cloudless occasions when critics
could not but forget their usual function
ana become rhapsodists, IL cannot be said
that Mime. Sembrich sings all kinds OF
songs better than any one else liz would
be easy to name certain Lieder, OF the
highly dramatic and emotional type
which such singers as Lilii Lehman ana
Lillian Ncrdica can sing more effectively.
But. In her own domain-which IL q large
and delightful one--Mme. Sembrich stands
&C day alone; and, as she wisely refrains
from Dressing the border, her recltals
verge ON perfection.

WENTWORTH ON MAZzINI
YOUNG CHICAGO ORATOR SPEAKS
ON THE ITALIAN PATRIOT.

Franklin H. Wentworth, of Chicago, oc-
cupied the pulpit of the Peoples church
last evening, giving a lecture upon ''Maz-
zini, the Italian Patriot" The speaker
made a very finished talk of a. semi-po-
Htical character. Enlarging upon the
subject of his address he dealt in prob,
lens Of political economy, and those
principles involved In the document
which gives. to every. American citizen
freedom in every particular-the bill Of
rights. The same hierarchy that sat in
jeWeled palaces and sent men to death
in war because one prince coveted the
mistress of another, was virtually re-
sponsible for the conflict between the
burghers Of South Africa and the
English. He depIored the power that
could send men to kill other men whom
they never saw and against whom they
had no grievance, and hoped that the day
might come when the brutal rule of the
sword would terminate. Patriotism was
too often the tool Of the politician MAJ
zini exemplified the true patriot In the
conflict Waged by Italy to secure freedom
from Austria. His yalor and patriotic ut
terances were such as to entitle him to
q prominent place in history

CALL SIOUX CITY
PREACHER
REV. F. H. sHEDD THE PASTOR
He Occupied the PuIpit. Yesterday
and Made n Very Favorable
Impression on His Com
gregatiOn.

Rev. F. H. Shedd, pastor of the Third
Presbyterian church. of Sioux City, TO-.
preached at the Westminster Presby-
terian church last evening. Rev Shedd
spoke on the subject, Christ the Way"
He said: "All men are searching for the
truth. The boy learning his trade and the
young person getting an education. are
searching for the truth. While men are
satisfied to rest in simply the laws and
facts about them, yet that can only be
temporary. The final search is for God.
Christ is the answer to all those soul
longings, for He is the way to highest
life here and hereafter. This is true In
every sphere Of material things. All Of
the wonderful developments In commerce
and material advancement are due in
some ways to Him who said 1900 years
ago: Go teach
This is true In the sphere of mental
