FINANCIAL GOSSIP

regarding exchange and money should pervade
the tone of business. On the declines the grad

continues. Manipulation has been much less
apparent and we rather think that. operations
by room traders have been curtailed owing to
their fear of disturbing elements in the presl-

1t must be admitted that 1t is conservative and

1t Is rational in tone and we think it better
for the country that no stirring issues should
be presented at this time calculated to unsettIe
confidence and promote discussion. Certain evils
which exist must be remedied, but the process
of such correction should be slow. One of the
most vital recommendations in the message,
that which refers to the elasticity of our cur

THE SEAGLE CONCERT

Owing to the inclemency Of the weather
there was but a small attendance at the
Seagle concert at Plymouth church last
evening. Those who .braved the storm
were richly repaid for the effort, for the
entire program was wholly admirable and
thoroughly enjoyable The interest of the
occasion, Of course, centered in Mr.. Sea-
gle, and it is but just to say that his sing
ing was: a surprise to many of his friends
!; Mr.. Seage's Voice is a smooth and SYM
pathetic barytone, of fine, resonant tim
bre, and having remarkable range. He
Is undoubtedly at his best. in lyric singing,
but 1T is a question whether there is not
much that is better and beyond that livery
desirable capacity in a singer, for Mr.
Seagle, endowed as he is with voice,
physique and temperament. His rendi-
ton Of the aria TT Is Enough from
Mendelssohn's Elijah" was good, al
though not remarkable, but his singing Of
the, two groups Of ballads including Schu-
bert's Shepherds Lament and Tschai-
kowsky's Pilgrims Song" was remark
ably good. 1t was in the .tPagliacci'
numbers, however, that Mr.. Seagle gave
evidence Of the possibilities before him,
and in the Prologue he almost arose to
the heroic. In. Sodermann's Birding
Song he was assisted by double octet
Of his old confreres from the Apollo club,
and the number was we'll sung.
Of the other numbers on the program,
Mrs.sJones sang two ballads and a duet
with Mr. Seagle from "Pagliacci.'' Carlo
Fischer played three cello numbers,
arousing much enthusiasm. His technique
is wholly adequate and his bowling broad
and convincing. H. S. Woodruff intro
&duced the program with two organ num-
bers, Rheinberger's Visions being espec-
tally noteworthy from the remarkable
rendition it received. Tosti's Help Me to
Pray sung by Mr.. Seagle with Mr..

Woodruff playing the organ accompani-
ment was aso a remarkable number and

farmer and wheat grower Of Sumner
county Kansas, says that Kansas lis
going to produce a wheat crop next year
which, will beat all former records, IF
the present indications count for any
thing. He said: 1T looks as though all

wheat extends for miles in each direc-
ton. and it certainly presents one Of the
most beautiful sights that man could
run across in this western country. The
present condition of the wheat could
hardly be improved. $
