nights the fsvorite comic opera comedian.
Francis Wilson, and his reorganizcd
company, will present for the first
time in Omaha The Monks OF Malabar. d"
Cheeyer Goodwin wrote the book and the
music is by Ludwig Englander In this
creation Mr.. Wilson has gone back TO the
style OF opera in which he made his greatest
success and the results are said 10 have
justified his return. II will take a pretty
bright work to lead one to forget Err
mimic" The Merry Monarch" The
Oolah, THE DEVILS Deputy" and all the
other pieces which MIR. Wilson has pro-
duced in the last ten years. but that is
what seems to have been done with The
Monks OF Malabar." The music Is catchy
and the combination OF lyrics and dance
delightful. MIR. Wilson has a new com
pany to support him. foremost among whom
is Maria Celeste. The other principals
are Van Rensselaer, Wheeler. Hallen Mos
tyn, Glare Palmer Grace Orr Myers. Edih
Bradford and Louise Lawton. There is a
large and efficient chorus, said TO be com
posed Of the prettiest girls who have ever
appeared here with Mr.. Wilson.
THE Sorrows OF Satan" will be seen for
the first time here Thursday, Friday and
Saturday at Boyd's theater. Those who are
familiar with the story will realize that Il
could not properly be presented on the stage
without an exceptional cast and accessories
OF an unusually costly and elaborate
character, while those who have seen any
OF Mr.. Brady's other productions. such as
Mile. FIN or Way Down East" know
that he would not attempt this, even II it
were possible. Marie Corelli's admirers
may therefore safely anticipate an entirely
adequate presentation OF this strange tale
OF the devil on earth.
II there is one thing more than another
that the people OF Omaha enjoy Il is
comedy-good, clean and sharp comedy.

TIE mistake made in connection with
the chorus choir is this. namely that when
one wants a good choir it is not the time
to decrease the salary OF the organist and
choirmsster Chorus choirs are usually
adopted for economy. II should be re-
versed. They should be considered a val
liable investment.
Beecher alluded to choirs once when
speaking Of the good. oldiashioned hymn
tune sung by the whole congregation. which
seemed to take him up to the very gate
Of heaven. But. yesterday he said, the
singing was done by four people and It
took the congregation up TO the choir

Dr. Frank Damrosch is entitled TO speak
on the matter Of choirs and choral WORK.
for be has done a tremendous work in ad-
yancing the cause Of music amongst peo-

choral unions. and singing societies have

successor Of his illustrious father. Dr.
Leopold Damrosch, and is doing as useful
a work in his line as his brother Walter
is in his widely different sphere.
Today. March 10. being the sixty-second
anniversary Of the birth OF one OF the
very greatest American composers, and
believing in keeping a mans memory green
while he is alive. the First Methodist
Episcopal church choir will present tonight
a musical program made UP entirely Of the
works OF Dudley Buck, who In the year
1889 was born in Hartford, Conn. This
will be the last program in the series
which has been in progress at the church
mentioned, and the chronology Of the pro-
grams has proven an interesting study In
development OF form and composition.
Handel. Mendelssohn Gounod, Dudley
Buck.
Mr.. Buck is still with US, In the body as
well as in the spirit. He Is a strong
factor In matters musical. and Il is hoped
that he will be for years to come. His in
fuence as a composer OF church music has
been powerfully felt and his ballads and
arias for the concert stage have been and
are gems OF the art OF writing a ballad.
His musical-dramatic works have also
achieved distinction. His Golden Le-
gepd" was presented here some years ago
by the Mondamin Choral society, with full
chorus. soloists and orchestra. II was the
prize competition OF the Cincinnati May
festival Of 1881.

the fact that while the value of the
products has increased ass per cent.
and the number of the wage earners
has increased 9.6 per cent there has
been decrease in the number of re-
f1neries. In 1899 there were sixty
seven refneries in operation. While
there were ninety-four in 1889. The
average value of a plant, together with
the live or working capital, In 1880
was $317.741; in 1889 it was 1923, ,57S.
and in 1899 it was 81 1.422,S04, a rise
showing clearly the effect of the con-
solidations made in recent years. Mr..
Rockefeller said while ago that the
mineral oil interests of the country
employed first class labor and paid the
best of wages. The report now pub
lished shows that wages have substan-
TALLY advanced in the past ten years.
While the total number of wage earn
ers has increased only 9.6 per cent. the
total wages have increased 1873 per
cent. There is good deal to be said in
praise of an industry that turns out the
best products of the sort, pays labor
the highest market prices and sells its
output low enough to compete with
rivals in all parts of the world.-New

Scorched. Water-Soaked

Reconstructed.

S75. Investigation showed that there
was $130 in the package, and that
amount was forwarded for the benefit
of the funeral fund Among the re-
ceipts recently was a large package
of the fractional currency in circula-
tion during the civil war. 1t had evil
IDENTIFY been stored away in vault
thai was not over dry, and was badly
disColored, but was yet in such condi-
tion that it could be redeemed. good
deal of this fractional currency is re-
ceved, much of 1t almost as bright
and clean as on the day of issue. The
best is not destroyed, but kept on hand
and sold at face value to collectors. A
week or so ago there was received
number of continental bills, issued by
authority of the continental congress
during the war of the revolution. The
law does not provide for the redemp-
tion of this money, and the bills we're
returned. Ignorant people in the south
and elsewhere, particularly negroes,
frequently send in large quantities OF
confederate bills. believing the govern
ment will redeem them. The govern
ment formerly held that the finder of
money was not entitled to have 1t re-
deemed, and when turned into the
treasury it was kept there for the
owner. This rule has now been
changed, and the finder of money is
the one who profits. A few days ago a
Washington colored man took to the
treasury two $50 notes, which he said
had been found on an ash heap. AL
though badly soiled. the notes were
easily identified, and the negro got the
500. Another Washington negro not
long ago took to the treasury a large
package of bills, which had been
buried in the ground and were badly
water-soaked. The bills were general
ly of small denomination, and the task
of separating the pieces and patching
them together was a big undertaking.
as the amount of the resurrected roll
was more than $500. The negro ex-
planned that he had buried the money
to get it away from an "extravagant
family" and that when he went to the
place of burial to get out a small
amount he found that the entire store
had been ruined. The history of the
redemption division of the treasury is
calculated to explode the theory that
paper money is a great spreader of
disease germs. An average of 81 900 900
of paper money in its very worst
forms of dirtiness is handled and
counted three times every working day
in the year, by a force composed most
ly of young women. The only precau-
tion the clerks take is to wash their
hands thoroughly with soap and water.
yet there has never been case of ill
ness among them traceable to the han
ding of money.-Chicago Journal

The Chinese Pig Tail May Go

1t is stated that the statesmen of
the flowery kingdom are considering
the advisability of altering the Chinese
law which requires Mongolians to wear
cues. The Chinese, it is said, wore
their hair American fashion some 300
years ago. at which time they likewise
wore garments similar to those in use
in this country today. With a new
emperor came an alteration in the
two fashions, and ever since cues and
blouses have been quite the proper
thing.
Now there is great agitation for a
change back to the old style. The Chi
nese are of practical turn of mind
and say that too much time is requir-
ed to dress their long braids. There is
considerable objection to the style now
in vogue. and so persistent for a
change has become the demand that 1t
is likely the law establishing the style
of headdress will be altered. 1t is
stated that the Chinese will not wear
their hair long, but that their heads
will be kept shaven.
