The Great Soma Town.

Philadelphia prints more than one,
quarter of all the music in the United
States, and the total amount OF 1t is
six times as great as it was Is years
ago. But. while Europe shows no such
increase as that. this country's total
output is. still less than half that of
Leipsic, Germany, and less than that
of several other European cities. In
this city the amount of instrumental
music printed used to exceed that of
vocal music. This was due, 1t is said,
to the cheapening of pianos in recent
years and the popularity Of banjo and
guitar music. Now, however. the
banjo. at least, has lost some of its
popularity. and the gain in vocal music
until 1t is about equal to the instru-
mental in quantity--is attributed to
the current prevalence of musical com.
edies. In vocal music the comic and
the sentimental keep about even. The
gain in religious music has not been so
great as that in other lines.-Philadel-
phia Record.

HOG OF BRILLIANT COLOR.
West African Animal One Of the Most
Brightly coiored Mammals.

That really beautiful species tho
Red River hog of West Africa Is now
well represented in the zoo. In com
mon with other Juvenile Wild pigs the
Red River hog is striped in the early
part OF its life. When about three
months old 1T loses these markings.
and the body has spotted appear
Rnce.
The adult is one OF the most bril-
liantly colored mammals In existence
but Its bright red hue no doubt har.
monizes with Its surroundings. the
soil in many parts of West Africa be-
Ing red. 1t is of an elegant shape and
with It's tufted tail and long. penciled
ears has considerable pretensions to
beauty.
Though 1t has not the enormous
tusks found in many of the wild swine
the Red River hog is not devoid Of
means of defense. Its face is pro-
tected by hard callosities on each side,
Just below the eyes, and there is a
bony ridge on each side of the upper
jaw. And that these growths are not
merely ornamental is proved by the
fact that this animal can hold Its own
with the wart hog. species provided
with formidable upturned tusks.-

Some Famous Bets.

The story from Toxic that $500, 900
had been wagered that the battleshir
Satsuma would not be successfully
launched brings to mind some freak
bets Of other days.
The English noblemen OF a century
ago used to spend a great part of their
time in making wagers Of the most &c
centric character.
For instance. In ITO. before the
days OF rapid transit, an earl wagered
that he could find a man to travel
from London to Edinburgh and back
in less time than 1t took another peer
to make a million dots.
Sir George Liddel laid wager, and
won 1t. that he could make Journey
to Lapland and return. bringing back
with him two native women and two
reindeer, within specified time.

ADJUSTMENTS.
The Four Mortons Produce One Long
Scream From Start to Finish.

That clever family of erstwhile yau-
deville artists, the Mortons, appeared
for the first time at the Odeon last
night, and their performance was one
long scream. A fair-sized audience was
kept in peals of laughter from the rise
of the curtain in the first act until
1t dropped at the close of the third.
No better value for the money has ever
been given at the Odeon than the en-
