DORSCHT CONCERT.
4 Fine Programme-Mr. Guiiford 5 s FIuttst of Great Ability.


 The extra Dorscht concert with the combined lodge orchestra and the Sec ond Regiment band proved to be one of the best of the season and brought a numerous audience to the Hyperion theater last evening.
 These request programmes are all ways popular, the selections of last evening varying from light opera ar engagements to the sterling works of Wagner, MendeIssohn, Rossini, etc, all of which were well done. Particularly fine were the aLohengrin" and s'Wil- liam Tell'' numbers and the last two by the combined forces of the band and orchestra
 A remarkably fine exhibition of flute playing was that of Fred Guilford, the soloist of the evening, who gave Feus- tenaws Concerto with superb tone and amazing dexterity. His phrasing was beautiful and clean cut and the intri- cate cadenzas were played with his ac- knoWledged skill. The accompaniment furnished by Conductor Fichtl and his men was faultless. Guilford's encore was exceptional.
 The work of the orchestra this season shows vast improvement and that of last evening among the best in it's his- tory. '

UNREST OF THE BALKANS
AMBASSADORS OF THE POWERS
 SEE THE SULTAN.
pressing tho Albanian Agitation II c Promises to Take Measures for Miit- tary Occupation of Country if Pacifi- catory Mission FailS.

London, April 6.-There is little fur ther development in the Balkan crisis since Saturday. The runor of the death of M. Stcherbina, the Russian consul at Kitrovitza. who was shot by an Albanian sentry, proves to have been premature, but the consul's con- dition is serious and symptoms of peri tonitis have appeared. It is reported that the Albanian soldier who shot him has been sentenced to fifteen years at hard labor.
 According to a despatch from Con- stantinople, the Austrian, Russian and British ambassadors have had audi ences with the sultan. on whom they impressed the necessity of suppressins the Albanian agitation. The sultan in- formed them that in the event of the failure of the pacificatory mission that he had despatched to Albania, he would take measures for the military occupa- tion of the disturbed region.
 The Daily Mails correspondent at Vienna asserts that Austria has mobil- ized her Agram, Sarajevo and Temes- var army corps in readiness to occupy Mitrovitza should such 8 measure be- come necessary. The correspondent fur ther affirms that a dangerous agitation exists among the Mahommedan pnpu- lation of Bosnia and Herzegovina, which is secretly arming itself in spite of all official precautions with the in- tention, 1t is feared, of emigrating into old Servia to swell the ranks of the in- surgent Albanians.
 A telegram from Belgrade reports that rioting has taken place there as the outcome of demonstration against an objectionable police regulation, and many persons were wounded in the course of the disorders.
 Sofia, April 5.-The Macedonians here held requiem mass at the cathedral to-day for the repose of the souls of the revolutionary Bulgarians who were killed at Karbintzsi, where band of tWenty-four insurgents under two Bull garian officials were slaughtered by Turkish regulars and Bashi-Bazouks. The portraits of the leaders of the band bound with crape, were placed in the cathedral and the officiating priest pro- nounced a sermon in which he held up the glorifying example of the victims. The edifice was crowded.

 Washington, April 5.-The United States naval representation in the Ori- ent will be increased materially as soon as the vessels now under orders to proceed to these waters arrive there The navy department in making this increase contemplates squadrons in Asiatic and Philippine waters under three general heads, viz: Vessels of the line of battle, made of the battle ships Kentucky, oregon and Wisconsin, and the monitors Monterey and Monad- mock, all of which are now there ex- cept the Wisconsin, which sails from Puget Sound about May 1st; second the cruiser squadron, made up of the New Orleans, which is already on the Asi- atic station, and the Raleigh, now in the Caribbean Sea, and the Albany and the Cincinnati. and the third squadron made up of gunboats and small craft designed especially for service in the smaller bodies of water where the larg- CT ships, because of their draft, are un- squadron formation is a favorite with many naval officers who to some extent have arranged its counterpart with the vessels of the Atlantic fleet.
 It is said here that the change in the character of the Asiatic squadron is due primarily to what navel experts consider the proper division of our navy and was decided on some time ago. It also is felt to be a good precaution- ary measure to have strong repre- sentation in the far East ready for ser- vice should the occasion unexpectedly arise.

THE CHURCHES OF MEXICO.
A Reason Alleged Why They are Never
COMPLETED.

Some interesting information con-
corning the churches of Old Mexico
was given by j. r. Connolly, of e.
Paso, Texas. at the New Willard re
Gently. In that country the churches
are so mixed up in the political. social
and historical affairs of the nation
that history of the churches would
be a histor y of the country and
library of romance at the same time.
Zone of the strange things about the
churches" said Mr.. Connolly, lis that
nclie of them are ever finished. You
may travel from one end of Mexico to
the other, and wherever you go you
will find from one to half dozen work
men doing something to every church.
They may be putting on spire there
o. q bit of decoration here, but as soon
as one part of the building is apparent
ly completed they go to work on an
O ther, and, what is more, there is no
Likelihood that the churches will ever
be finished until the laws are changed.
"Since the present Government came
into power the church in Mexico has
not been allowed to own property, and
such property as it acquires must be
held in the names of individuals aud
is subject to taxation. However, no
taxes have to be paid on an unfinished
building, and that is why the churc les
of Mexico are never completed.
From HI aIchitectural standpoint
they are the most wonderful chmrc'.e'
in the world Architects from all over
the world have been astOnished AMI
puzzled by the miracles in stone.
There are great arches and dOmes com
posed entirely of small pieces OF stones
cemented together. According to all
the rules of construction these domes
could not have been built in the first
place, and in the second. would not
hold together for minute, yet they
are there and are as solid as though
built of steel.
sit remained for an assayer from
Denver, who had settled in Northern
Mexico, to solve the mystery. He
cultivated the friendship of a priest and
persuaded the padre to AID him in bis
Investigations. Together they went
through the musty records stored in
| the church vaults, which run back for
two or three centuries. and there they
found what appears to be truthful
and very plausible explanation of the
wonderful feats of architecture.
ut was recorded that when one tier
of stone was laid about the base of the
building earth was carried and heape d
up to the level of the highest stones ;
another tier was then added and more
earth piled up on each side. This
process was repeated until the dome
and arches were reached. Then the
earth was rounded off to the desired
shape and the stone cemented together
on the surface of the ground. When
sufficient time had elapsed for the NOR.
tar to set and become as bard as the
stone itself the wOrkmen dug out the
dirt from the church, and it was ready
for the finishing touches.
Labor must have been cheap end
plentiful in those days to perform such
stupendous task, and there is ample
reason to believe that it was cheap and
plentiful. ''-Washington Star.
