Success with a book is something like
having lightning strike you. Up in
Mackinac last summer Gen. Wallace
told me how narrowly "Ben Hur' es-
capped publication. 1t was examined by
two of Harper's readers, who reported
rather adversely on it, thinking it
would not be good seller. Finally Mrs.
Harper, a lady Of strong religious tend
encies, read it, and advised her husband
to risk the expense of printing the
book. Then there was ''Dr Jekyl and

HOW WILL SOUND?
Much Speculation About Indoor Con-
certs of Banda Rose

There was a great welcome awaiting
the return to Minneapolis this week Of
the Banda Rosa. which is to be at the
Auditorium here for three days begin
ming two weeks from today A1inneapol-
itans had heard the band for seven weeks
at Lake Harriet this summer. but they
had never listened to it IN a building.
There was quite a curiosity to learn how
the music SCREENINGS crack Italian Or
ganization would sound indoors, using as
it does more brasses than any band now
travelling That the Instrumentation is
adapted to indoor work in such buildings
as the Auditorium. this paragraph from
the Minneapolis Evening Journal of Tues
day indicates;
''The Banda Rosso began its return en-
gagemenr in Minneapolis yesterday with
two concerts under very favorable cir
cumStances. All doubt as to the deSira-
biiity of the Exposition building for the
purpose was dispeued, for the lovers OF
Italy's red band discovered SO many
new beauties in the music heard in the
Auditorium that they felt as If they were
becoming acquainted over again The
spaces are SO vast that even the heaviest
not unpleasantly heavy. and the delicate
passages are brought out In their true
relation.
Persons who have been out of town
around Topeka lately have found that
there is big interest in the forthcoming
musical festival in the Auditorium. PeO-
pie as far away as Cottonwood Falls and
Strong City, out beyond Emporia, are
planning TO come.

CHANCE FOR RATE WAR
Wabash Takes a Stand on Kan
sas City to Buffalo Business.

st. Louis, No, Sept General Pas
senger Agent Crane of the Wabash, has
notified Chairman Mcleod, of the West
ern Passenger association that the Wa
bash no longer consider itself bound
by the ruling of Arbitrator Martin in
the matter of rates to be charged from
Kansas City to Buffalo and points east
thereof by it's fast mail train via Han
nibal. The wabash takes the ground
that its competitors have not observed
the spirit of that ruling and are not liv-
ing up to the agreed basis for rates
eastbound from Kansas City. In self
protection therefore the Wabash will
charge the differential rate from Kan
sas City by it's fast short line train to
Buffalo and points beyond when the
circumstances justify it.
