Wagner's Productions Only Enjoyed
When supplemented by Suit
able scenery.

The strict Wagnerite refuses tC
hear the music of his favorite com
poser in the concert-room. 1t was
never intended, he will tell you, to be
performed by itself, but to be played
as an accompaniment 70 the action
for the purpose of heightening the
effect of the intensely dramatic situa-
tions coupled with gorgeous stage
pictures that are inseparable from
Wagner's famous art work, says the
London Mail,
The most important part of Wag,
ner opera, according to the composer
himself, is not the music, but the
drama, which, indeed, the beginner
should closely follow with the aid of
the book of words, since the music
is usually sung in German words.
The intending Wagnerite should
also begin with the masters most
popular works, "Tannhauser" and
"Lohepgrin." He viii then at once
recognize the familiar music he has
already heard so often at concerts,
and, struck by its beauties, he will
attend many performances of these
two. Next year he will want to hear
these again, supplemented by tIris-
tan und Isolde" that wonderful music
drama so charged with intense emo
tion and passion. Having heard "Tris-
tan" and liked it he thereupon be-
cones a fpll-fledged Wagnerite in the
true sense, aad the season after he
attends performances of the "Riug
des Nibelungen," or he may make a
supreme effort to get to Beyreuth.
From Beyreuth he returns the ar
dent disciple of a musician whose
name he terrifes his friends by pro-
nopncing in the German fashion, not
Wagner. but "Yaachkner."

1900, the above reservation is to be opened
10 settlement. On the north side OF thls
reservation is another known as the Wichita
reservation, which may be included at the
same time, but tins is not yet known. Ihe
Law opening the reservation, provides That
the allotments shall be made in from three
to six months, and makes it lhe duty OF the
President to issue proclamation opening
the country within six months after the al
lotments are made. 1t is not likely that
the President will take the six months, and
and he may issue his proclamation immedi--
eteIy after the allotments are made. Thus
it may be seen the lands may be open at any
time from the early spring to summer oil
next year.

Lamartine.. Barber stu Alive.

Lamartine's barber, certain NJ.
Isopy, is (says Paris correspondent
still alive. He is just ninety-two, and
his greatest delight is to talk Of his
hero. He treasurers up faded daguer-
reotype of the sentimental politician,
who, having been the dominant figure
in France, died In obscurity. NJ. Ispoy's
show was the favorite gathering place
of the celebrities OF '4S. 1t is prob
able that N. de Lamartine, who used
to summon his hairdresser to Macon,
employed him as an emissary in those

A Dangerous Occupation.

Much time and labor have been be-
slowed by scientific men in expert
ments relating to the use Of phosphor-
us in the manufacture OF lucifer
matches. 1t is found that while the
present factory rules in England have
led to improved conditions and less
ened risk, further advances are i'm
peratively necessary. Some of the
works in that country are old and
lend themselves with difficulty to the
improved structural arrangements
found in the more efficiently equipped
establishments, and in most of them
methods now shown to be obsolete
are in use, involving unnecessary risk
to the operatives, and the dangerous
processes are said to be largely carried
on by persons in whom the danger is
further aggravated by unsound teeth.
The fact is particularly noted of the
neglect in substituting machinery for
hand labor in the dangerous processes,
in the want of attention to the condi-
ton of operatives teeth and Neglect
ing to report we'll known cases of
phosphorus poisoning, or even watch
ing for their occurrence--deliberate
and long continued concealment
being practised in the latter.

Singing Spiders.

A naturalist who has given many
years of study to some OF the smaller
forms of insect life has discovered that
certain sorts Of spiders are possessed
of organs for which there seems to
be no use save to create sound. They
are mostly used when the little crea-
lures are alarmed, although the opin-
ion is held by some that this is their
means OF calling to their mates. The
alarm idea, however, has some support
tn the case Of the rattlesnake, which
is provided with the means Of making
its presence known whenever an enemy
approaches. Whether the possession Of
organs for creating sound is designed
merely as a protection or warning is
a point to which naturalists are giving
careful and enthusiastic attention.

Reading Aloud.

An accomplishment that receives too
little attention among trained nurses
is the art of reading aloud. Only
those who have had to lie on sick
bed through long weeks and months
can appreciate the comfort of being en-
abled to listen to intelligent reading.
A gentle, pleasantly infected voice, a
clear and distinct articulation, and an
intelligent comprehension of the mat
ter read have a soothing effect upon
the most irritable nerves, and for that
reason should be considered desirable
qualifications in a sick nurse. There
are many people who cannot afford the
expense of having both a companion
and a nurse, but nurse who can be a
companion as well must be considered
an ACQUISITION indeed.
