m HANY musical folk who have
fkHNf been away for the summer
uuu have returned and interest in
matters musical is reviving
Mrs. De Wolf returned last night
from the East, where she and Mr.. De
Wolf spent some time in Maine and
IN New York city. Mrs. Yale has re-
turned from Europe and has opened a
studio in the Chamber of Commerce
building, her old studio in the Rauden-
bush building being occupied by Her.
bert Foster Sprague, who has also re-
turned from his vacation Of month,
parti-of which was spent in Chicago
coaching. Miss Micher, violinist, has
Joined the musical colony on the top
floor of the Chamber of Commerce.
But while many people prominent in
the musical life of the city have re-
turned, few have left the city for
good, and their absence will be greatly
felt in st. Paul this winter. Espe-
cially will Mrs. Russell r. Dorr be
missed While her unusual capabilities
found expression in many different
lines of work that are factors in the
city's development, her long association
with the Schubert club and her untir-
ing interest in every project that prom
1sed to advance the cause of music
here have identified her, in special
manner, with the musicians. It does
injustice to no one in this city to say
that Mrs. Dorr has done more for mu-
sic here than any other Individual.
Her thorough technical knowledge, her
great aYpaI1fiua oh
slasm-were qualities that made her
services Invaluable both to clubs and to
individuals. and she spent her strength
3recklessly in advancing here the in
terests of the art she reverences. Her
friends will rejoice that she has
found a wider field for her many tai
ents in New York, but they must re-
gret that ST. Paul is to suffer so irrep-
arabic loss. Arthur Bergh is an
other musician whose absence will be
keenly felt here this winter 1t is well
known that Mrs. Dorr was responsible
for the chance which came to the
young violinist to avail himself of the
wider opportunities that a residence
in the metropolis affords. He is now
playing in Walter Damrosch's SYM
phony orchestra and has also opened a
studio in New York. Claude Madden is
smother familiar face that will be
missed in st. Paul the coming season,
for he has joined the colony of Mime
sofa musicians in Gotham. Last year,
to be sure, Mr.. Madden resided in Min
neapolis, but he divided his time
equally between the two towns, and he
played first violin here at all the or
chestral concerts and in the DAM
series.

of the First National Bank, and a
nephew of Robert NJ McI.ane, for.
mer governor of Maryland, and United
States minister to France during Presi-
dent Cleveland's first administration.
During his brief administration of
the mayorality of the city he mad
brought upon himself the autagonism
of the regular Democratic organization
by tie apcpintme:it Of independent
members of the party Recently there
had been marked opposition by the
democratic members Of the city coun
ell in matters relating to the rebuild.
ing of Baltimore ana this is ascribed as
eontribntary cause of suicide.
