Harold Heide Concert,

Special interest is attracted to the
appearance of the celebrated Norwe-
gian violinist, Harold Heide, which
takes place in the First M. E. church
Monday evening, January 20. Mr..
Hetde's first appearance in America
was at the Waldorf-Astoria, New York
city, where he played before a large
audience for the benefit of the New
York surgical hospital, and met with
an enthusiastic reception. He also at
tracted most favorable attention a
week later, November is, at Wicker
Park hall, Chicago, as chief soloist
at the 35th anniversary concert of the
Norwegian Singing society. Mr.. Heide
drew for number of years from the
Norwegian government, in recogni-
ton of talent, an annuity to be used
in foreign travel and study. For two
years he pursued his studies under
the direction of the famous violin yir-
tuoso, Caesar Thomson in Brussels,
Belgium, and heard with profit the
best music of European musical CEN
tiers. Upon his return to Norway he
gave a series of concerts and met the
warm approval of both critics and
general public. Filing, the gifted. COM
poser, found in him one who played
as though resolved to conquer and
who did conquer. Per vinge, an
other prominent musician and COM
poser, praised his "pure noble tone"
and firm sweep of the bow" All
this indicates, that his concert here

A gown to be worn at the charity
ball tonight should be put on exhi-
bition afterwards as it has been made
entirely by three prominent mar
ried men in town. Every stitch
in it these gentlemen have put in and
they do say there were some funny
times when it came to the fitting. One
gentleman claimed it was not tight
enough around the hips-another said
it was too full in front and Mr.. c.
simply said he would not put in an
other stitch II they still insisted on
having tail to it. The young lady
was brave all during the ordeal, but
confided not long ago to We editor that
she had intended to wear it decollete
and 1t was originally made that way
but owing to having been treated as
a living pin cushion in the fitting pro-
cess-she had decided to put yoke
in herself.

and he never glanced at the judges,
but turned back for another try.
Three rs One. :

Three rs One.
Down they came second time, the
click of their shoes keeping time like
the wheels of a train moving, over
the slight interval Of space between
the rails Geers bent forward slight
ly, there was a perceptible tightening
of the reins, the veteran inclined his
head bit, the timers watches click
ed, and Belle Hamlin, Justina and
Globe were away on the journey which
placed their names far up on the roll
in racing annals.
Up the back stretch they went, but
those holding watches on the horses
shook their heads, for the horses
seemed to be going slow. The book
makers looked satisfied, for they stood
to lose considerably more than 'the,
railroad fare back to New York"
should Geers get under 2:18. Geers,
it seemed, was even taking the back
turn little slowly, and the satisfied
look of the bookmakers changed to a
smile -
Down the Stretch.
But the three turned into the
stretch at a terrific clip, and in all
that long journey there had not been
a skip or a break. The movement of
the horses was like watching a NOV
ing picture, for as yet they were not
close enough for the crowd to hear the
click of their shoes, but when they did
come it was as one horse.
The crowd as one man leaned far
forward to catch every move. The
timers to whom the magnificent spec
tacle was denied kept their eyes glued
to the all-impOrtant line, where the
time was to stop.
On and on they came, nostrils seem
ingly struggling for air and every
muscle strained to the breaking point.
A break now would be- fatal; a few
more seconds and it all would be over.
The love of the fight shone in the eyes
of the horses as it shone in the eyes
of "The Silent Man" who was up be-
hind them.
What did this heart-breaking strug-
gle mean to them, what difference did
it make to them whether they went
once around that track in two min
utes or three, were they doing it for
Village farm or for the applause they
knew would follow creditable per-
Torrance, or were they doing it for
Geers?
With the last final effort the three
flashed, across the finish line leaving
train of dust behind them in 2:14
fat The demonstration which fol-
lowed has never in all probability been
equaled on any track before or since.
In slowing down Geers took his
charges far around the turn and then
came back with smile on his face
to the judges stand. 1.-TWO fourteen"
he said to Col. Edwards before glanc-
ing at the numbers. well, set the,
mark at 2:1S for them to shoot at,
didn't I?'
Geers knew the time as soon as he
had finished, for his watch on the
reins told him all about it. In this
way he had timed his burst of speed
to a nicely, thus displaying his fine
judgment of pace. There wassno flor
al horseshoe for Geers as after the
Futurity. He was content to go back
to the barn, where he could be by him
self and where the welcome of little
scrawny looking dog was waiting for
Geers, "The Silent Man."

Fashion Notes.
In these extravangant days it is pos
sible to put almost any sum in the gar
nishments of ones simplest frock. II
one is handy with the needle, two
thirds of her trouble is over when it
comes to the establishment of her
gown, for this is day of hand-em-
broidery. And never was the art OF
needlecraft more generally distributed
in both ample and limited wardrobes.
AS much embroidery as one desires
may be used in good taste. The rich
ness of the work may be EXCHANGED
by here and there introducing a thread
of gold.
The keynote of perfection is express
sed in the styling of gown when long
line effects are emphasized. A straight
line from shoulder to hip is one of the
desired points. The Directoire-Prin
cess combination affords ample oppor-
tunity to carry out fashions dictates
and is perhaps the most favored style
of the season.
Just where the Empire style ends
and the Directoire and Princess begin
is difficult problem. To be on the
safe side it is perhaps wisest to say
the smart styles combine, in one way
or another, the three distinct modes.
