AMUSEM ENTS.
Creatore.

Creatore's Italian Band at the Opera
house, Monday evening, did not draw
so large an audience as the merits of
that musical organization would war
rant. Those who went got tired of
waiting before the concert began, but
nevertheless they responded heartily to
the music when it was at last heard.
The bandmaster is a whole show in
himself and he occupies the front CEN
ter of the stage every moment of the
time, when there is anything doing.
He bends over the players and has Il
jerk and twist for every note, and
it is their task to translate those aero
battles of his into the harmonieS that
will long be remembered. He is a long,
gaunt, loose-jointed, and at times gro
tesque, assemblage of perves, but he
gets there just the same, and the music
is all right, even if everybody watched
his flowing locks and eccentric move
ments while they listened. He makes
classical music understood by the COM
mon people, and gives these common
people another count in their indict-
ment against those who furnish clatter
and racket and then pity their so-called
interiors who refuse to appreciate 1T
for music.
A chorus from Verdi's 'Lombardi,
the sextette from DoniZetti's Lucia
Rossinis "Cujus Amman" and other
numbers were given, and everybody en-
joyed that sort of music which is COM
monty supposed to be reserved for only
the initiated in such things, and they
are grateful to Creatore for making it
plain that it is actually good to listen
| to. There are so men in the band, the
| brass slightly preponderant over the
reeds. but it is n we'll balanced, and.
! as has been implied, a ell-drilled
band, that all ought to hear.

NATIONAL GUARD
May Hold Next Encampment in
ST. Louis,
To be Present When West Virginia
Day is Observed Plan Meeting With
Much Favor Men May not be Paid
on Trip to Reduce Expenses.

A movement Is on foot in the state
militia by which the eHcampment of
the national guards, instead Of being
held within the state, may be held at
St. Louis, about the twentieth of
June, 1904, in order that the entire
national guard Of the state may par
tieipate iE the observance OF West
Virginia day. which is June goth.
The movement is said to be meet
ing with considerable encouragement
among the high state officials, and Of
ficers of the local guards have receiy-
ed communications asking their opin-
ion as to the ACCESSIBILITY of the pro-
posed change.
Colonel A. S. Huston, who is aSss-
tant adjutant general, is at present
actively at work for the success of the
new plan, and the outcome and iinal
decision will be awaited with inter
est.

sion 10 convey the entire national
guard to the State eneampment at st,
Louis, but they would prove an attrac-

and would draw many to the Fair City
that would otherwise not attend.
The movement for holding the en-
campment at 81. Louis, was started
among the officers and men ef the Ma
tional Guard, who are anxious for the
change.
An arrangement will probably be
made by which the men are to receive
no pay for the time which they serve
at St. Louis
At present the pay for the men is
the biggest item of the states expense
and in this manner this will be great

St Louis may be a saving To the
state.
The men are willing to accept this
proposition.

Is the Salvation Arm, still in
MorgantOWns

I
We would answer, yes, that since
Captain and Mrs. Reade arrived on
the 10th of May, the work Of the
Army has been going on. Perhaps
not always in the form of meetings
in the hall or on the streets, but let
US remind you that meetings are not
the whole or most important part of
the Army's work. They are simply
the demonstratiye or public part.
Many have asked, what is the
Army doing, why should we give it
our support2 We witt now explain
little of the work behind the scenes
which the Captain, with his wife's
assistance, as long as she could be
of any service to him, have been
doing the work which none know
of except those who have been visit
ed and dealt with.
They have spoken to and plead
with between 20 and rs men under
the influence of liquor upon the
streets and in their homes A
number OF these in answer to the
sou! stirring questions of the Cap
tain have made solemn promises to
live better lives, TO return to wives
and families and live TO bless instead
OF curse them.
They have spent over 200 hours
in paying 1873 visits to the homes of
the sick and afflicted of Morgan
town and vicinity, in several in
stances relieving cases of want from
their private purse, leaving words of
comfort and cheer behind them
wherever they went.
Many ask, where are their con
yerts, what results are they having2I
And we would ask, vino is to judge
what results such life OF self
sacrifice will bring forth? Eternity
alone will reveal how many hearts
have been awakened and how many
will date the time thf y forsook sin
from one of the Captains or his
wife's visits. And If there should
be but one, could we say it was no
worth the effort?
1t may interest some TO know how
much the collections and donations.
have amounted to since May 10Th.
Collections in Morgantown S50.SS
Profit from Camp Meetings $S5.02.
Donations for bass drum $500.
Other donations $3.50.
Total income 1851. 40.
Expenses.
Rent paid $4,000.
Salary to Captain and wife $19.3l
Bass drum $500
Loss on publications $11.02
Gas Tor hall, postage for Army
business and ineidentals $l4.07.
Total expenses Sl5l.40
Judging from the amount of
salary taken, we cannot think that
the Captain has over estimated the
value of his labors, or that it has
paid for their support. This is not
so. They left home last spring with
between $50 and $40. Since arriving
in Morgantown he has done several
small jobs of work, and today finds
himself with sick wife and no
work to be had.
If he should ask you for dona-
ton to carry on the work of the
Army, before you answer him, ask
yourself if you would be willing to
make the sacrifices he has made and
is making. If not, then help others
to do work the results Of which we
may not see here but Eternity alone
can reveal.

Price struck Robert Bloom and seri-

taken it up on account OF the fact
that they had the celebration under
their auspices and resent the fact that
a disturbance took place.
