THE TOTAL SUPPLY
SMALLEST SINCE FALL OF 1898
Demand for Work Horses on the Farm.
Bocr War Drained Country
for Two Years.

Horse and mule receipts at Kansas City
last week broke all records for the past
three years, saya tho Drovers' Telegram.
The total supply, which amounted to 3l6
mead. was the llghtcst weeks run since the
fall of 1898 Receipts Of horses and mules
for the month of June were 2s7s head, or
supply smaller than that recorded in
some Of the banner weeks of the trade.
For the past few weeks the Monday runs,
which are usually the largest of the seven
day period, have been less than geo head.
During the winter season the Monday nuc-
tions show from 800 to 400 head OF horses
on sale, twice as many horses as arrive
at present.
Several causea have conspircd to curtai
horse aud mule reccip S for the past month
or two, The chief one was the demand
for work horses on the farms There has
been an acknowledged scarcity of hogs aud
fat cattle this spring, but the shortage
in horses and mules in the country has
been greater, owing T. a potent factor
working 10 that effect. This was the Buer
war, which Tor two long years drained
the western country OF supplies. Now the
markets are being made to pay up for their
great rush Of business during the war
trade days, The scarcity of horses Is ali
the more apparent because OF the abundant
crops IN prospect This has had the offec.
OF causing farmers to hold back every hoof
on the place,
In the fall there ought to be a decided
change' The South is expected to want
supplies OF mules for the cotton fields; the
East VIII need her regular quota OF dray
horses and the farmers Of the West Will
be ready TO market their animals as crops
WIZ then be made and the grains stored
IN the bins. Thus the present light receipts
are out temporary and due to entirely
natural and eXpected reasons.

SCREENINGS Banda Rosa, Italy's famous
Band" is coming to Creighton Or
pheum. 1t numbers forty-hve men CARRIED
in red coats, whose repertoire embraces
practically everything Of value ever written
or arranged for a concert band. This is
the bands fifth summer season in the
United States and the fact that 1t is able to
tour successfully in America is good proof
that it has strength and standing. 1t began
first in the east, the most difficult OF parts
in America to obtain a foothold. Eugenio
Sorrentino, whom Italy considers one OF
the greatest Of living conductors, has the
hearty good will of his musicians. The
principal characteristics of their playing
are said to be a wonderful sorority Of tone,
which italians dearly love, and a remark
able ease in tempo, by which is meant the
ability to work up enormous climaxes and
in the next measure play a delicate pianis-
simo. Among the men is a group OF great
~soloists, the chief being Bottega, the
trumpeter, who, says Philip Hale, the noted
Boston critic, can give Patti and Melba
points on artistic phrasing.

today, featuring music prominently to
comply with requests from patrons
rather than to add to this part
Of the varied program and de-
tract from others. Huster's concert band
will play afternoon and evening concerts
today of a program carefully selected and
a degree higher on the scale of classical
music than usual. Mr.. Albin Hustler, the
talented director, who, with Bellstedts
band, made a reputation among the leading
horn ~soloists of America, will play a Sc
lected solo, while Mr.. Lott, the cornetist,
and Mr.. Schollhouse, baritone, will play
The Miserere from III Trovatore." The
program will include twelve numbers In
addition to which a number Of extras will
be added for encores. In compliance with
requests from a large number Of patrons
a rag-time concert, such as was given fame
by Bellstedt here, will be played on We'd
nesday evening, June %. Should the con-
cert prove as successful as anticipated
more will be given. as it is the intention OF
the MANAGEMENT to give patrons what they
want. The moving picture reproduction OF

tinues as strong a card as at the opening.

But the eastern musical magazines and
the musical columns Of the American papers
in the eastern cities in America are so
thoroughly occupied with the doings of the
musical world across the water and with
the deploring Of musical conditions in the
east that it never occurs to them to see
II any musical development is existent in
the great and mighty west, and in that
tremendous heart-whose beats indicate the
pumping Of the life blood through the whole
system of the great body of the United
States-the middle west.
Are there no choirs, no musical festivals,
no musicians here. The wise eastern must
cal writer's might find an interesting thing
or two out here. The east is becoming in
sular, unsteady, and the west, continental.
An eastern periodical (weekly) recently
contained a wonderful article about what
tremendous strides churches are making,
and cited a few examples (of course, all in
New York; Of what good music the choirs
are using, etc. There are many choirs in
the middle west whose Christmas, Easter
or regular programs would, l dare to say,
astound some of those dear housekeeping
gentlemen who write home-spun articles
about their home musical affairs and who
seem to consider that musical America
is ounde on the west by the boundaries
Of the eastern states!
Let us look into this western matter!

May be. But the Mirror should reflect
that the material growth OF the United
states has been most marvelously rapid
and that the demand for entertainment has
far outstripped the request for art, and
that the stage has been utterly unable to
supply the needs Of the public without
drawing on second and third-rate talent,
and even some that grades lower. Not
enough really good actors are known to
supply the New York demand alone. and
leave the country at large with none, and
people outside of New York like to see the
great ones as we'll as do the Gothamites.
II is this condition more than the CONNER

the critics to the qualification Of actors that

The nine Faust family will remain an
other week at Courtland beach. Their
performances, given every afternoon and
evening. have created much enthusiasm the
past week. They are model trainers and
students in the trying craft Of acrobatic
work. The father and elder brothers are
as gentle with the little fellows as their
mother, who is always with them, might
be in a nursery romp. Some acrobatic
performers beat, scare and completely
wreck the nerves of their little charges
and assistants, but this is not so with the
Fausts, as has been discovered by Court
land beach employees who have witnessed
their daily performances and rehearsals,
where the h~appiest comradery exists be-
tween the adults and babies Of the troupe.
Laughter at mistakes. good natured, and
encouragement is the only correction and
their work is made play OF the most in
| MIGRATING kind. This is why the children
are not pale and frightened and continually
falling or stumbling and spelling an act.
Their nerves are thereby preserved to as
sist them to balance their muscles and am
hilton. The Faust children come onto the
platform glad to work and as steady as
automatons; secure as any one Of their ell
ders and pretty, mischievous healthy In
fants. Their many acts are hard to de-
scribe; the entire performance must be
seen to be appreciated.

The tone Of the eastern musical press is
becoming more and more d~olorous as the
seasons roll by. The old Philharmonic
Orchestra Of New York has been sadly
twitted about its age. / think one writer
refers to the FIRST desk players as
septuagenerians. The choral societies have
been receiving cruel digs about singing just
as they (the present actual members) did
about sixty or seventy years ago.
