PAIvTERSON'S CHANGEABLE pol

T. M. Patterson, successor Of Edward
o. Wolcott as United States senator from
Colorado, has agreed to stand hitched
with the Democrats, according to the
data furnished by him for his sketch in
the congressional dictionary. He is re-
SponSible for good story that is being
told by members Of the Colorado delega-
ton.
The senator was in congress once as a
Democrat He bolted Cleveland in 1892.
and for a number Of years was the head
Of the POpultSt orga niZation in the West
He also took a hand in the organization
Of the Silver Republican party and kim

er of the many fusion deals that have
been engineered in Colorado. In county
and city elections the senator led civic

Kubelik has come and gone and people
tho people who were fortunate enough
to hear him-are busy discussing the eff
feet produced Oh them by the little vio-
linists music. Nobody can accuse Ku-
belik Of being emotional, yet people seem
to agree that his violin playing has very
much the Same effect as has Paderew-
skis piano playing. Severe critics nave
pronounced the latter 1mmoral--the mu,
sic, of course. they mean-and doubtless
the same accusation might be made
against the Bohemian's playing. It is a
rather curious fact, however, that the

MUSICAL NOTES.

Miss Miriam Sproat, 10 ct one time
studied piano music with Miss Gertrude
Hail. Of this city, and who left last
January to pursue her studies in Bos-
ton, is now a pupil of Prof. Carl Thael-
tan. of that city. Miss Sproat, in re-
cent letter to friend in st. Paul, gives
an interesting glimpse into the girl stu
dents life of that city. Miss Sproat is
a member of club of twenty girls, who
occupy a big house in a quiet part OF
Boston. The club is called the Theta.
These girls are music or art students,
who have gone to Boston because Of the
bigger opportunities 1t offers. They have
housekeeper, who acts as chaperon,
and the girls are thus enabled to attend
ali the lectures and concerts and operas
that are given. The twenty went together

thrown at either the Tuesday night or
Wednesday night concert.
Nobody was carried fainting from the
theater. If tears were shed, they were
shed quietly, unobtrusively, in the pri-
vacy OF ones own handkerchief, as it
were.
In a short talk with Kubelik the writer
was particularly impressed with one re-
mark he made. ON being asked If he
ever suffered in the least from stage
fright, he answered, in his modest rather
ditfident fashion, that he had never ex-
per1enced 1t. AS best he could, with the
few words of the English language at
his command, he explained that the larg-
er the audience was, the better he play-
ed; that he needed the stimulation Of
numbers and applause. He also admitted
that the character of the audience af-
fected him to a rather remarkable de-
gree. Yet Kubelik does not strike one
as being remarkably impressionable. On
the contrary, in ordinary conversation
he seems to possess all the stolidness of
his race. When he plays, however, this
stolidness passes entirely away. The vio-
linist seems to possess two distinct per-
sonalities. One that is stolid, thrifty and
apt to worry about trif1es, the other
sensitive to degree, subtle and emo

Does the Metropolitan theater possess
a musical rat? At the concert Tuesday
night not few people who occupied
the seats that border on the aisle toward
the left Of the house were startled to
see plump and very black rat scurry

Kubelik began his first concerto The
rat disappeared some place near the
orchestra, and did not appear again dur

The last of the Bergh recitals will be
given in Mozart han Thursday evening,
March 10. An elaborate programme is
being arranged by Mr.. Arthur Bergh and
his sister, Miss Minnie Bergh. When the
season is over and an estimate has been
placed on what has been accomplished
musically the pastwinter, certainly the
programmes that have been presented by
Mr.. Bergh and his sister will not be reck-
oned among the least important musical
offerings that the season had to offer.
1t takes courage to cling to ideals, when
pecuniary profit beckons, but the Berghs
have resolutely presented always the best
and for some fine musical treats this
season music lovers must thank them.
A pleasant feature of the past week IN
musical circles was the social hour en-
joyed by the members of the st. Paul
Choral club after rehearsal last Tues
day evening. The affair was arranged in
honor Of Director Normington. whose
zeal for the clubs interest and whose
untiring work for it's advancement has
won for him the respect and regard of
every member in the organization. Re
