While this last statement Is perfectly
 true, it is doing the old chorales an in-
 justice. when we lay the modern hymn at | their door, for the latter is, in general, ! a very unworthy descendant of noble an- cestors. We do not mean to say that
 there are no hymns composed today that
 can compare fayorably with the old mas
 terpieces in this line, but 1t is fact,
 generally admitted, that while few no-
 ble consecrated men like pr. Lowell Ma
 son. have given us hymns like "Hebron,'
 Ward" Naomi" etc, which are as
 immortal as any musical composition
 o' that class can be- and which will, in ages to come. weld their powerful in-
 feuence for good to the human race; there are a thousand so-called hymn writers
 who flood our Sunday schools and
 ch urches with their trashy song books,
 which are so low, from ra usical point of view, as to become laughable and abso- lutely sacrileglous at times, without such
 intent. Who but 0 musical barbarian
 would have put the beautiful words of
 At the Cross" to the jig-tune which we h ear in our Sunday schools? It is not only sad commentary upon the musical sta tus of our people that such hymns arc used, but 1t degrades our religious ser wees and creates material for scoffers.
 When one has heard the chorales which H andel and few others have immortal i'd in their oratorios, with their majestic he Tmony and inspiring rhythm; and then ho ars, in contrast. in some of our modern ia Shionabe churches a thunderous or gsIn succeed In drowning out four little vofces at its base and whole lot of gen. ui.p,e devotion In the congregation, with shallow so-called hymn of the kind above mentioned, he feels that the twen- tiet1l century advancement cannot be ap- phi al to hymns, excepting in the sense of tempo
 Nowadays we rarely hear expression, | and almost never hear feeling in hymn
 gin Etng. It is getting to be a fact that
 the hymns being sung more by the
 cht Lirrs, and less by the congregations, wh D should do the singing. We agree l hea artily with the late 1amented Dr. Tal- | maiEa, who was extremely optimistic; but
 who maintained that this part of church
 mus kc" was certainly an exception to
 the general betterment of the world
 1 Almost the only place where the good ! old hymns can be heard in their original 1 insp iring purity is in the churches of the | sma u country towns where no ambitious l paid quartettes and noisy organists com l bine to discourage the devotion of the l mem Isers by drowning them out and 1 run utng away" from them. We do not | mean to get into line with those who | never progress; on the contrary, artistic, l cultivate voices and good instruments | are absolutely necessary to modern 1 church; but should they monopolze the
 musical part of Gods services? Why
 not let the congregation sing their hymns withouA. being hurried and hustled on to | the erd, in what our MT. Guckenberger
 was prone to call "cow-running-down hiil fashion? We are almost tempted to believ 9 that if we could get back again
 to the simple but inspiring "psalm-tune' of our forefathers, our reAgion would take ou a new dignity, and our church members would be better Christians.

MIR. JACKSON TALKS
 ABOUT CHURCH MUSIC,

MT. George P Jackson, who is as well known as church singer as he is an orchestra musician contributes this dis cussion on a timely topic:
 Hymns are, rightly speaking. cantcles of praise or prayer addressed to the Di- vine Power. They are very ancient in origin and we know they have been used in the earliest days of Christianity.
 It is the impression of many persons that Hymns are purely of Protestant orgn. This Is mistake. The Catholic church nurtured, many centuries before the reformation, what is known by the Germans as the "Chorale." Many of these old melodies, for instance St. Ambrose s Hymn of Praise,' are still retained in the Lutheran and Eyangelican churches, and the modern hymn is the direct des- cendant of these old German chorales.

Couldn't Expect a Tenor's Song.

From the New York Herald.
 While travelling from Toulouse to Bor- deaux, the other day, an inspector of the railroad fell fast asleep and was not aroused until the conductor called out the name of a station. As he did not hear the name very distinctly, he summoned the conductor and asked him what sta, ton it was.
 "Castelsarrazin." was the reply, whereo upon the inspector said, rather angrilyt Why didn't you call it out more distinct. ly? No one could understand what yoG said"

that the proposition submitted by the
state department was in no wise an
ultimatum, and the matter is still
open to adjustment. Generally stat
ed, the Cuban objections are based
on a belief that the United States
has demanded undue concessions in
