The Symphony Orchestra.

For years the philharmonic club has
been educating the local public to an
understanding and an appreciation Of
the great choral masterpieces, and the
Minneapolis Symphony orchestra, in one
season, has proved beyond question that
it is destined to become one of the most
important agents in the tdevelopment of
the art life that the city has: ever had.
Not only music in its every branch, but
the sister arts feel it's influence.
Tho. the educational aspect of the or
;chestra cannot be too strongly insisted
upon, nothing in the art line has done
50 much to advertise the cityaas this or
ganization. The press Of Boston, New
York, Chicago and other eastern cities
have mentioned the orchestra, comment
ing highly upon Minneapolis as exhibit
ing an appreciation Of musical culture
and enterprise rarely manifest in city
Of its size. s. sssg m n
The orchestras Of Boston, Chicago,
Pittsburg and Cincinnati have demon
strated that a, city IS art institutions can
become as valuable agents in increasing
its prestige abroad, as it's manufactur-
ing or commercial interests. Chicago
today has $4,000 music students, and
this is conceded to be due chiefly to the
direct influence Of the city's orchestra,
under the direction of Theodore
Thomas. The majority of, these stu
dents come from the west, large part
Of which territory rightfully belongs to
Minneapolis. and, with the maintenance
of an orchestra and the more active and
widespread interest in music such an
organization creates, thousands Of these
students will be attracted to this city,
where, with the university, both their
literary and musical studies may be pur-
sued. ,. jfH +" s&s.,:,@]s-~:>.a.s

The filing of a new mortgage no.
tice of five million dollars by the
Mississippi Central Railroad Com
pany last week probably means that
the road is TO be completed from
Scranton to Natchez. This road
was formerly the Pearl and Leaf
Rivers railroad, and there is forty
five miles Of it in operation, from
Hattiesburg to Silver Creek. The
name was changed some time ago.
The fling Of this mortgage notice
would seem to indicate that there is
some big system behind the new

The Impotence of the Moroccan
Ruler ~ suppress Drienpdase.

London. June 25.--The Times, in a
lengthy editorial on the release by the
bandit Raisuli of Messers. Perdicaris
and Varley, calls attention TO the fact
that the Times correspondent. Walter
b. Harris. was captured by the same
brigands who, emboldened by the sue
cess of that venture, seized Mr.. Per-
1iearis, who on account of the high po-
aition held by that gentleman at Tan
gier fulfilled all the conditions which
would enable Raisuli to drive a bar
gain such as no other brigand had ever
ventured TO propose
As the result of the sultans acced
ing To the demands of Raisuli. says the
Times, the world perceiyes the i'm
potence of the Moroccan ruler TO dis
charge the most elementary duties of
government.
The moral of the situation, the Times
points out, is that France must inter-
vene and provide the sultan with an
organized force and with funds.
The standard also publishes an edi-
torial In which it concludes that Mo-
rocco must now cease 20 remain under
a reign of anarchy. and that France
must avert such perilous complications

Them to Lose Heart and Interest.
New Chwang, June 24--(Via Mes
senger to Koupantze-The Russians
seem unable to reform their plans,
which have been upset by Gen. Ku-
roki, and are losing interest and heart
in the struggle. The local censor is
not passing any communications. The
secret police are extra diligent, and It
is extremely hazardous to attempt TO
send out uncensored dispatches.
New Chwang is filed with rumors of
more fighting 10 the southwark. The
reports come from native sources. A
few Russian officers, who talk guard
edly, say the rumors are untrue, but
that Gen. Kuropatkin intends to make
determined stand at Kai-Chou, where
many mines have been laid and
trenches constructed
The field telegraph between Kai-
Chou and New Chwang, which was
finished Wednesday, has been cut in
three places and five miles of the wire
carried away. 1t is supposed to have
been the work Of Chinese in the pay
of the japanese.
This is regarded as evidence that the
Russians can not hope for the friend
ship OF the ManchurianE.
Large bands Of robbers are giving the
Russian outposts much trouble north
east of New Chwang. The Japanese
it is said, have supplied the robbers
with 1000 modern rifles and much am
munition.
