COTTON MARKETS.

NEW YORK, Feb. 11.-COTTON-Th
operations in cotton futures We're restrict
ed to unusually small proportions to-day
and prices kept within marrow bounGs.
Taken as a whole, it was a day OF pro-
fessiOnal settlements in view of to-
morrow's holiday. The public contributed
a few struggling orders only, and foreign
professional interests We're small at most.
On the first call the market was steady
al 3 points higher to > points lower \
brief period of nominal steaG<eSSs was
followed by Il gradual Gacline under SELL
ing for both accounts py pit operators
and absence of support from any quarter.
Conditions We're rather favorable to q
higher market at the start. but the trade
was Indifferent. Bullish Liverpool cables
and small receipts were disregarded. In
terror towns receipts were rather larger
than expected and mill reported indi-
Gated Il disappointment among splnnerS.
These latter influences caused unloading
of cotton and scalping of short sales.
Under this pressure values worked quite
steadily, though slowly, downward. and
no time during the session was there
recuperativc energy. Speculation was
slow during the afternoon. with a virtual
truce in observance between room longs
and shorts.
The market was finally barely steady,
with prices net to II points lower.

ACTRESS AT METROPOLITAN

fractions.

The only appearance of Mrs. Leslie Car
ter as ''Zaza" are announced for Monday,
Tuesday and Wednesday at the Metro
politan, and as the Easter engagement
IS to be the only one she can play here
as 'Zaza," there are few who will permit
themselves to lose this farewell oppor-
tunity TO enjoy Mrs. Carriers thrilling
work as the heroine of David Belasco's
play. 1t is said to be a revelation of the
possibilities of acting. The emotions are
varied yet consistent with consequently
aordinary demands on the skill Of the
star With equal power and persuasion
Mrs. Carter portrays the ecstasy of love
and the abandonment of despair. With
DELEGATE charm she shows, too, the refin-
ing influence of love and the softening of
the woman under its spell
Then comes the climax, in which
ZaZa finds herself deceived by her lover
Perhaps it is this scene that has carried
Mrs. Carriers fame throughout the Eng
disappearing world: for terrible as 1t is,
Mrs. Carter acts it with 50 firm a touch
with such tremulous force, with such nat
ural pathos, that the audience sits spell
bound and breathless. 1t is great scene,
and in it the actress rises to her height
such q height as few artists of her kind
have ever achieved.
The admirable company that supported
Mrs. Carter last season, and which shar-
ed with her the recent London triumph,
still includes such capable players as
Charles A. Stevenson. Marie Bates, Mark
Smith, Hugo Toland, Downing Clark
Harold Howard Helen Robertson Maud
Winter, Marie Davis. Marjorie Bond
Eleanor Stewart, Corah Adams, Herbert
MlIward. Therese Berta and others
The statement that Mrs Garter has
six new plays in reserve, ready for
elaborate production, is quite true; the
only difficulty being that Mrs. Carters
''Zaza" has been so successful and the
demand to see her in the part so great,
that there has been literally no chance
to undertake new things until the pres
ent demand of managers and public
shall have been satisfied
Mrs Carter Will doubtless be seen
shortly in her latest Ibsen play.

musicians; in uncovering hidden talent,

1.-THE growth of women's musical clubs
began about the same time the first
steps were taken toward the development
Of the association, the oldest known club
being the Bossini Club Of Portland, Me-,
which was organized In 1871. Today there
are between 300 and 400 of these clubs
working each in It's own way, but all for
the advancement of its individual mem
bers and for the upbuilding Of music in
their respective communities Now 1t
would seem from this that clubs are not
a present fad, as some maintain. but the
result of demand which in its beginning
was hardly conscious of itself
''Of the late organizations perhaps the
most important is the International Musi-
cal society, now in the third year of it's
existence This society has a member
ship of some 500, representing the lead
ing musical societies and musical writers
of the world. It's music object is the

IN musical journals and elsewhere, as to
the rapid spread of music and the gem
eral Improvement 1t Is everywhere under
going, there is still much to be accom-
plished. While we are glad to note this
general awakening, yet those OF us here
tonight are more particularly interested
In ST. Paul The revelations of history
furnish us with satisfactory evidence of
progress, for, comparing the existing con-
ditions of music in ST. Paul today with
the conditions that existed ten years ago
we can see that a higher plane has been
reached
And yet any thoughtful observer, not
Ing the disgracefulIy small attendance at
concerts given by artists of world wide
regulations might well have questioned
as to whether musical taste was degen-
Grating In st. Paul Now, why this lack
or interest? We hear much Of the con-
servatism of St Paul. I am sick and
tired or that plea. Conservatism Is but
another name for egotism which. in
turn, may mean ignorance as to the real
value of existing conditions 1 believe We
have as earnest a body OF musicians in
st. Paul as can be found anywhere as
evidenced by the students sent out, who
are attracting attention and admiration
IN our large cities, where they have to
compete with foreign-trained artists. We
leave no stone unturned to better our
teaching abilities. Are we as much in
earnest in endeavoring to better our mu-
steal environment? Do we as individuals
give our hearty support to every effort
made which means the elevation of pub
lie taste?
1T would be difficult for any one indi-
vidual to bring about a decided change
but united effort could accomplish much.
We all realize, as one writer says, that
the curse of modern life is sham art.
and the watchword among us is down
with sham But what of the general
public? The past failures to call forth
large enough audiences to warrant artists
coming to this city might be due to sew
eral reasons such as poor management
lack Of general interest, or dissatisfac-
ton with the management.
with all due respect to church socie-
ties or private individuals instrumental
in giving US series of concerts, 1t must
be a well recognized fact that series
of concerts or entertainments given for
the benefit of a society which represents
the whole city in its special mission are
