Musical

Now is the time when pupils will be
looking for teachers in the various lines
Of work in music. II may not. therefore,
be smiss for a critic to draw the attention
Of the neophytes to the things to be de-
sired Of their to-be teachers.
First Of all, let 1t be understood that no
matter which teacher is chosen, there will
be impertinent but well-meaning friends
who will say that you ought to have chosen
another teacher.
l am now writing, however, for those
people who have judgment enough to in
vestigate thoroughly the claims Of several
teachers before deciding upon one; pupils
who are looking for results in an artistic
way.

There are many things to be considered
in the selection Of a teacher. The first
question to be asked is. What has he done?
Be careful in the choice. Let no glim-
mering advertising or baseless promises
Of future financial gain sway you. II you
do you will be one Of the disappointed
ones. Look for results. Ask for proof.
There are many teachers whose prom

Then one should choose a teacher who
is a constant and consistent champion of
the higher and refined music and an I'M
compromising foe Of that which - vulgar
and common. One does not go to college
to learn vulgar or common things, but to
assimilate the higher thoughts OF the
worlds greatest educators.
The teacher who is not afraid to stand
by the best and highest, is a good teacher to
intrust your education to.

not indicate a good style in singing any

It is also safe to avoid the teacher who
sees no good points in any other teacher.
Omaha, 1 regret to say, has its goodly rep
resentatives Of that cult which believes in
maintaining the doctrine Of refusing to
honor prophets Of their own country. They
will denounce teachers, with a vicious in
temperance Of language, whom they do not
know personally and Of whose work they
know nothing. Now that is bad enough.
But for teachers to indulge In that form
Of argument is objectionable.
Have you ever thought OF how criticism
would change IL every critic we're COM
pelled tn give his reasons for praise and
blame alike Yet, that alone is criticism.
It is refreshing to read some Of the "crit-
iques'' written by the European critics. 1t
is, however, hard to c~riticise In a place
where you know q great many OF your
readers.

had the pleasure Of meeting the tai
ented young Signor Riveil last week at one
OF the concerts, and I had a very enjoyable
conversation with him through the medium
of my esteemed friend Rev. Father Col
aneri. Rivela is a wonderful worker. He
arranges everything that is played by the
band; he has a polished manner, and he is
~innately modest Of his ability. He is not
as sensitive Of criticism as Is his manager.
He laughed heartily when Father Colaneri
translated for him an incident which ]
had heard of, to the effect that Mr.. b
went to Rivela after one Of the concerts and
congratulated him, but began to c~rtticise
the empo, explaining the reasons Of his
criticism, while the signor. whose knowl-
edge of English is decidedly limited, smiled
and bowed effusively, saying all the while,
THANK you! thank you! Thank you" signor
Rivela does not believe that his band is OF
divine origin or that he is astonishing the
ignorant Americans. He is a musicianly
gentleman or a gentlemanly musician JUS

THE CONTEST OF 1856.

The passage by a Democratic Con-
gress of the Kansas-Nebraska bill
made no longer available the honeyed
glue of compromise with which Henry
Clay had so often linked repellant
atoms in inharmonious alliance, and in
1856. for the first time in our history,
the forces of freedom and slavery were
aligned for battle at the polls Candi-
dates for the Democratic nomination
for the Presidency We're numerous, but
the chief contest was between Stephen
A. Douglas of Illinois and James
Buchanan of Pennsylvania. The slave
holders controlled the convention
Douglas was comparatively young; his
fidelity to slavery had not been tested
| the Democracy needed the Keystone
State, and they selected the morally
cartilaginous and mentally unossified

RECALLS TRAGIC EVENT
Loss OF Chinese Man-of-WAr Causes Removed Discussion
of Maine Explosion
4&9&1& n *A3 "a &h &# un4A

Recently there has been a good deal
OF quiet discussion among naval men
concerning the explosion of the
Maine, excited by the news which
arrived from China that the warship
Kai Chin exploded and sank within
thirty second while lying in the Yang.

and men.
The explosion of the Maine was
one of the most mysterious affairs
that ever happened in naval history.
Notwithstanding the report Of the
board of inquiry into the name of
her loss, there are naval officers who
maintain that the cause Of the ex-
plosion Of the Maine has never been
cleared up. They say that no positive
evidence was adduced to show that
the Maine was exploded from the out.
side, although the report Of the board
pointed out many significant facts
which supported this contention.
On the other hand there was some
evidence tending to show that the
explosion was Of interior origin.
Among this was the fact that about
half an hour before the explosion
there was an unaccountable and sud.

NIGHT EATING MAKES FAT.

It was formerly thought that food
taken at bedtime created Indigestion

rich and hearty food Is inappropriate
at the time chosen for repose, a light,
nourishing repast at night often con-
duces to sound sleep by drawing the
blood away from the brain. Physi-
clans are now advising a bedtime
lunch for weak, nervous and emaciated
people. The long hours Of sleep con-
sumo about one-third OF our existence.

system is naturally much less than
during the waking hours, there is a

upon the suspension Of nutriment for
many hours. The body feeds upon It.
