One of the first things a married

is, unless his wife has had a plain

Another thing he gives up is the
impression that he is the master

Music in the South.

The main cause Of the death OF
good music in the south is TO be
found in the attitude of the public
itself, for although the southern
er S willingness 20 hear more music
than he does hear is a fact, il has
not always been one, nor il is in
variably and always in paying
quantities. a fact now. This is,
although he may have the desire
to hear music, just how he will
discriminate in the matter Is
fraught with SO much uncertainty
that only artists OF established
fame and reputation are sure of
gaining a wholly encouraging re-
spouse. The appearance of those
less well known and of local per
formers is Of an extremely hazard
Gus nature. The effect of this IS a
reluctance among musical artists 10
visit the south unless they are fully
confident of their power 10 attract
an audience Of sufficient size. or

society. Reference is made only
to those performances which are
strictly musical and strictly public

SPHINX-LIKE RISE.
Wonderful Recovery Of Galveston From
the Fearful Storm of September
$1,000 Better Than Ever
Before.

Washington, ID. C.-Mr. Thomas
J. Groce, City Treasurer of Cal
weston, and president Of the Cal
weston National Bank, who spent
a few days in Washington, while
on his way home, was caught in
the net of the hotel man of the
Washington Post. 70 whom he had
this to say of the Island City:
Five years ago. on the Sth of
the present month, our city ex-
perienced the most fearful disaster
that ever befell the inhabitants of
any community in modern times.
The storm that swept over Calves
ton Island on Sep. 8. 1900. caused
the death of not less than 5000
people, and destroyed millions of
dollars worth of property. How
we have recuperated from that blow
is now an old story, but il is one
Galvestonians will always relate
with pride, for, if may be par
doned for saying il, it is a story of
extraordinary pluck and dauntless
faith and energy on the part of a
people who seemed to be ire
trievably ruined. A sea wall has
been built at the cost of 81, 500
600 TO prevent a repetition of
similar tragedies. and the work of
raising the grade of the city is
progressing satisfactorily. 1t will
not be long until even the last
vestiges of the old ruin will have
completely disappeared.
But Galveston will not only
gain in a physical way as a result
of the hurricane. We have today
an infinitely better government
than formerly existed. The munich
pality has had ever since that date
an administration which is as free
from corruption. graft and other
sinister influences as is presented
anywhere in the Uuited States.
The city is ruled by FIVE commits
sioners who are not elected from
wards as under the old aldermanic
system. but from the community
at large. Partisan politics has been
completely eliminated. and the
word pull" has no longer any
local application. Our system,
indeed, has been a good govern
ment object lesson, and if it could
be continued indefinitely it would
be for the general welfare.
