pEopLING A DESERT.

The redemption of the desert of Sa-
hara has long been pet project of those
Missionaries who are looking for new
worlds to conquer through glasses that
do not permit them to notice the waste
places nearer at home. One of our own
Saharas, vast tract OF arid country,
held for many years as less habitable
than the famous bad lands of the plains,
is now undergoing redemption that
ought to attract the attention of the
whilom saviors of the African desert and
possibly teach them such valuable les
sons that their plans may come to a
head and that they may civilize corn
try that has needed the attention Of a
fusion campaign committee for consid-
erably more years than has New York.
This desert redemption now going on
in the United States has taken the
form of rescuing about a million acres
of land in Southwestern Arizona, South
eastern California and Northern lower
California, a section of the country best
known through tales of suffering
brought from 1t by exploring parties and
naturalists. The beginning of the work
lies In the carrying of water to this
great, dry tract of sun-baked land. And
the progress of the irrigating works
since June has not only brought hun
dreds of families to the country, but has
matured crops on 800 acres of ground.
BY Jan. $4,000 acres of land will be
within reach of irrigation, and within
three years this area Is to be increased
to 500, 900 acres, of which more than a
quarter has been fled on under desert

But this bare enumeration of the art
lists and the programme can give no idea
of the spirit, the atmosphere of the
evening. The composers were there Of
fering their best wares, the artists Were
giving them their best Interpretation.
There was a keenness, sparkle about
the entire programme that was delight
full.
Then, too, the place lent an artistic
air to the programme that has always
been missing when these meetings have
been held in bare concert halls The club
rooms are most tastefully decorated and
it SO happened that on this evening the
walls were hung with oils and water
scolors from the brushes of American
women, and this artistic idea was carried
out even to the selection Of the piano and
music desk. Messrs. Steinway & Sons
sent one of their art pianos, and Mr..
John Friedrich sent an art stand to
match. The programmes were decorated
with selections from the manuscripts
presented signed by the composers, and

FROM TO A CROW.

Thy breast triumphant 'gainst the wintry
blast,
Or the snow, following fast,
Thou cheerily dost sound thy trump for
From the dead field of corn.
Naug1nt daunted by the rough and frozen
ground,
Thou takest thy way around;
Grotesquey waddling, loudly triumphing!
Descanting on the spring -
What solemn conclave of thy kind shall
stand,
That day, on the arabic land.
Cooking wise eyes where once the scare
crow stood,
Sentry on hardihood
What comic copies Of myself shall wait
On the crealzing pasture gate!
What a watchful eye, art on them ana
thee,
Thy mate in the sycamore tree! -"
Adieu, brave bird adeu! . - . and as thy
fight
Hastens to meet the night.
So may our hearts, triumphant, spring 10
Fate's dark, swift coming feet.
SO may our souls, unfaltering, rise serene
Where doubt and death have been,
Into the night and silence; our last cry
A jubilant song as life goes hurrying
by!

eases like scarlet fever sometimes cause
deafness. But by. far the most common
cause of loss of hearing is catarrh Of the
head and throat.
A prominent specialist on ear troubles
gives as his opinion that nine out of ten
cases of deafness are traced to throat
trouble; this is probably overstated; but
1t is certainly true that more than hale
of all cases of poor hearing Were caused
by catarrh.
The catarrhal secretion In the nose and
throat finds it's way into the Eustachian
tube and by c1ogging it up very soon af-
feets the hearing, and the hardening Of
the secretion makes the loss of hearing
permanent, unless the catarrh which
caused the trouble is cured.
Those who are hard of hearing max
think this q little TAR fetched. but anyone
at all observant must have. noticed how
a hard cold in the head will affect the
hearing and that catarrh if long neglect
ed will certainly impair the, sense or
hearing and ultimately cause deafness.
If the nose and throat are kept clear
and free from the unhealthy seeretions
Of catarrh, the hearing will at once
greatly improve and anyone suffering

Themselves on n Leader.
Here is a good story which the Seattle
Times tells of Sig. Guiseppi Creatore, the
director of the Royal Italian band, which
will be seen in st. Paul, Dec. rs, n

The Royal Italian band this year pre-
Sig. Creatore He is comparatively a
foremost musicians since he was twelve
years old. At that time he was play
ing trombone in the Municipal band of
Naples, his native city. He has been
leader since his eighteenth year. He
finally came to the conclusion mat he
could never make more than bare living
in Italy, and decided to seek his fortune
in the land beyond the seas
Borrowing all the money he could he
set sail and landed in New York about
fifteen months ago, with about so cents
in his pockets. He had not been here
long when Manager Ellery heard of him
and engaged him as solo trombone for
his band. One evening at Atlantic City
the leader became sick, and young Crea-
tore volunteered to see the musicians
through the night. From the moment
he first lifted his baton the band was
his.
Never in their history" said Mr.. Ell
lery, did they play as well. That settled
it. The old leader must go. The boys
all threatened to strike unless I placed
Sig. Creatore at the head of the band,
and 1 was, willingly, however. forced to
do so. From that time there has never
been the slightest doubt as to our sucr
cess

NORDICA'S RECITAL
THE PROGRAMME SELECTED FOR
ST. PAUL WILL PLEASE
ALL CLASSES
OTHER MUSICAL EVENTS
A Number of Local Concerts Are Be-
Ing Planned for This Month
The World of Music
Active.

The event of the week, indeed, of the
season. in St Paul musical circles will
be the Nordicas recital to be given next
Tuesday evening. at the Peoples church.
Looking over the programme, which IS
given below, one is forced to the con-
clusion that Nordca is not only a great
artist, but sensible and shrewd bust
ness woman as we'll. 1t is a fact-a Ia
mentable fact, perhaps, but a fact for all
that-that the greater part of the audi
ence that will attend the recital Tuesday
night will be made up of those who. how
ever they may appreciate good music.
will not be able to enjoy the severer
class OF musical literature. Much has
been said and written about educating
the musical tastes of the public, but
after all people who purchase tickets for
the Nordica recital are not looking for
ward to an evening OF education, but
to an evening of enjoyment, pure and
simple. These people are just as worthy
of considerat ton as that smaller class
who decide from an Intellectual stand
point what they shall allow their emo
lions to enjoy. fortunately there are
sorgs written that appeal to the hearts
of the plain people and are good music,
too and some of these will appear on
the Nordica programme. In the two
Wagner numbers that will be sung.
"Elsa's Dream" from ''Lohengrin,' and
"Brunhilde's Call" from 'Walkure,"
musical epicures will find their special
enjoyment, although even those two num-
beers are not beyond the plane of ordi-
nary peoples musical perceptions.
Should a vote be taken after the recital
Tuesday night it would be safe to wager
that Rogers "At Parting would re-
ceive majority vote for popularity, for
st is claimed that the great singer puts
more of herself into this simple little
song that lis nothing in particular than
into anything else she sings during her
recitals. The common people should be
grateful to Nordica for considering them.
Such consideration is not common
characteristic of the great ones of the
world

the best numbers Of the group, and now
that these two have been sung trust
the others will follow. l have often
wondered why, in this day of cycles of
all kinds this little group of beautiful
songs had been neglected. Written to

to commend themselves to every lover of
English song.
