The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1904-10-09

e. HE present week will witness the
opening of the musical season
in st. Paul. 1t begins with fair
promise, for though few definite
announcements have been made, both
clubs and individuals are busy with
pIans and sufficient interest is being
exinced by the public to insure the de-
wplopment of those plans. The concert
given by the Kneisel quartette Thurs
day evening in the Park Congrega-
tional church must be reckoned one Of
the brilliant musical events of the
winter, no matter how full the winter
happens to be. There has been de-
veloped- in this country, and possibly
other countries are similarly afflicted,
class which flatters itself that art can
appeal only to the elect. AS matter
of fact, the masterpieces of any art are
not those that have won the COM
mendation of a few connoisseurs, but
those that have succeeded in striking
a responsive chord in the hearts of the
people One is forcibly reminded of
this in listening to the playing of the
Kneisels. Their music is the highest
art; the connoisseur has little or moth
ing to offer in the way of criticism.
But, better than even such an unim-
peachable evidence of approval, all who
love beauty for its own sake, no mat
ter in what form it is presented and
absolutely devoid of technical knowl-
edge though they may be, appreciate
the music of this quartette, and this is
the highest praise that can be offered
1t. 1t appeals irresistibly to all.
From Toronto comes reports of Nine.
Schumann- Heinks naive expressions
of delight over her comic opera role.
She praises the music and she praises
the book, and while undoubtedly her
press agent has inspired some of her
eloquence, there is no reason to believe
! that she is dissatisfied with her VEN
lures which the critics in those prov
inces" which she has visited declare a
success. Certainly what Nine. Schu-
mann Heink says about European
prima donnas' singing as frequently in
light opera as in grand is true enough
and if the great contralto sets a SINH
lar fashion in this country, we will be
her debtor. There is a place on the
operate stage for light and comic
opera. It's revival here deserves to be
encouraged.

A HINT FOR BEEKEEPERs.
How TO Secure Full Service of the
Honey Makers Without Weak
ening the Colonies.

Apiarist Edwin Beyins claims tc
have discovered two ways in which lay
ing worker colonies can be disposed of
so as 10 get all the service out Of IT,
bees that they can render and yet keep
the numbers of the COLONIES up TO what
IL was before
One way is 10 place the hive contain
ing the laying workers over strong
colony with a fertile queen, placing a
newspaper with small hole in IL be-
tween the two hives. says the New
York Farmer The bees Will unite
peaceably, and when considerable
worker brood appears in the upper hive
the hive can be placed on another stand
and the bees Will rear a queen from the
brood. II the old queen can be intro
duced about three days after the re-
moval OF the hive
The other plan involves the taking OF
a couple OF frames OF Matching brood
from a hive and placing them in an
other hive over strong colony. with
frame having a wire cloth nailed tc
both sides Of IL beiwee the two hives
Thus a fertile queen and her escort
are released on two combs. and in
few days there Will be nucleus stronl
enough 10 take care OF the queen. This
hive is then set down by the side o.
the hive holding the laying workers.
Every two or three days frame Will
the bees must be transferred from tn
ying-worker hive TO the nucleus. b.
the time all but two Of the frames ar
placed In the new hive the queen Is A
work there. and everything is harmoni
Gus.
AS regards the two frames taken 4
4 form the nucleus. they can be returne
10 the places from which they wer
I taken. or these places can be filled b.

A little alteration between two
Boys Wednesday afternoon culmi-
mated in an encounter between j. f.
King and DR.. Garrett, Of the City
Dental Parlors, of Bellingham, which
resulted in a speedy knockout to
the dentists credit. Kings son Ray
had pitched on to Cyrus Nichols
and according to the bystanders Ray
was getting a little the worst of it
when his father sought to stop the
fight. The doctor, who, among 9th
ers, was an interested spectator of
the scrap" told King to let them
alone, whereupon King struck the
doctor in the face and the latter,
without waiting to recover from his
surprise, ''let out his right" and
landed with considerable force upon
his antagonists nose, knocking him
down. BY this time the doctor was
in something of a scrappy mood him
self and he was continuing his more
or less gentle iabs when King OBJ
served that he had enough-and the
informal meeting adjourned.
