SECRETARY NELSON OF HORTI-

ING FOR LONG TRIP.
Will Cover Several Hundred Miles by
Train, Stage and Bicycle, Taking
His Wheel to Ride When Public

Good Work BY the Board.

DIR. Ayen Nelson, the botanist at the
University of Wyoming and secretary
of the state board of horticulture, will
leave Sunday night for a trip over the
state to visit all the nurseries and or.
chards of the state in the interest of
the board, intending to be absent about
hve weeks. He will go from here to
Newcastle and from there to Lander
and thence to the northern part of the
state. The Doctors special mission is
to study the health conditions of the
fruit trees and shrubbery of the state.
so that the board may make an intelli-
gent report to the legislature next Jan.
uary. He hopes to visit every nursery
and orchard of any considerable extent
in the state, making his report of great
value to the people of Wyoming. It
will probably be ordered to be printed
by the legislature.
Part of the Distance AwheeI.
DR.. Nelson will have some difficulty
in getting from place to place in the
ordinary way, so he will take his bicy-
Gle with him, shipping it by rail to the
railroad points he wishes to reach. and
using it to cover the varying distances
from the railroad station to the differ.
ent nurseries and orchards off the beat
en- lines of travel. In the northern part
of the state, where stage service is
long and tedious, he will go from town
to town on his wheel, expecting to COW
err forty and fifty miles between points
without trouble, loss of time or great
fatigue.
Paying Attention to Laws.
The state board has already accom-
plished much in the way of protecting
the planters from diseased trees, and
it hopes, in this inspection trip of its
secretary, to accomplish much more,
besides instilling new life in the cult.
walton of trees and %shrubbery for their
fruit. The nurseries of the state are
taking hold of the matter and the buy
ers are meeting ready response from
foreign nurseries in the matter of the
enforcement Of the state laws.

WALTER DAMROSCH'S PLANS.
Features OF the New York symphOny DIR.
chestrA Concerts.

The Now York symphony Orchestra, of
which Walter Damrosch is the conductor,
will give its concerts in the imminent season
in pairs, as il did last winter. but a change
has been made in the days selected for the
entertainments. Last season these con-
certs took place on Sunday afternoons and
Tuesday evenings. This winter the even
ing concerts will take place on Saturdays.
The Sunday afternoon entertainments
proved so popular that they will be con-
tinued. The dates chosen are Saturday
evenings, November 3, 10. -, December is
and 70 and January 10, together with the
ensuing Sunday afternoons. The place will
be, as heretofore, Carnegie Hall.
Mr.. Damrosch is naturally elated over
securing the first American appearance
Of Camille Saint-Saans, the distinguished
French composer. NJ. Saint-Saens will I've
the star Of the first pair Of concerts, Novem-
her 3 and 4, when he will disclose himself
to local muse lovers as both pianist and cOn-
ductor. That the musical society Of the
CITY will be interested in the appearance
Of the composer is beyond doubt.
Other solo.sts engaged are Nine. Gadski,
soprano; Nine. Schumann-Heink, contralto,
Cesar Thomson, v,el,nist; Leo Schulz:
'~cellist; Moriz Rosenthal and Josef Lhevinne.
p.anists. Mr.. Damrosch had brought his
orchestra Ia a high state Of excellence
before the close Of last season, and there il
every reason to expect from This series Of
concerts entertainment OF a high order.
The list Of compositions TO be performed
contains fewer novelties" than usual.
Mr.. Damrosch thinks that not many works of
sufficient importance have been written
recently. He will, however, give a first
performance to a -Morceau S~ymphonique"
OF Cesar Franck entitled Redemption"
which ia pronounced to be truly beautiful.
Two others besides these are a fascinating
painting by Debussy entitled The Sirens"
and incidental music written by Chabrier
for Shakespeare Henry VIII
Among the works 10 be performed which
are but little known in New York may be
mentioned Cesar Franck's D minor SYM
phony, the scherzo from Bruckner's Ninth
Symphony, Cigars Variation a DIVERT
mento OF Mozart and G Schumann's over
ture -Liebesfrdhling." The standard SYM
phonies will include Beethoven's Eroica
No. 8 and Pastorale No. Q, Brahms's No. 1,
and Tschaikowsky's No. I. At one concert
the entire programme, with the assistance
of Nine. Gadski, will be devoted 70 selections
from the Wagner music dramas.

nishing churches and public buildings in
this southern section. Mr.. Houghton ex-
poets some good results from these pre-
liminaries. Howard Miles of the Semmes-
Kelly Company tells me that he has had
remarkably successful trip, having
drawn blanks in the order line on only two
towns of the tour up to this morning.
And that's the way it Is going along.
Pretty good. I think. I hate to guess and
I'm going to be conservative. But I should
say, after talking with various travelling
men on the train, looking over their orders,
books and the like that, SO far, at least
$4,000 worth of immediate business has
been done by the drummers on the train.
One Of them. an old timer. tells me that
It will be closer to 100000 I may be pre-
JUDGED all sorts of ways. but it seems to
me that's pretty good for a secondary idea
Particularly, too, when 1t is rendered
that most of the travelling men didn't ex-
pect to do enough business to pay their
personal expenses on the trip.
1t has looked good to me for some days
this educational tour of the south. And
it's improving right along.
