The Chicago Orchestra.

Arthur Shepherd will have the op-
portunity of hearing his own works
rendered by one of the big Orchestras
of the country. 1t will be remembered
that when the famous Chicago SYM
phony orchestra was here last April,
at Salt Lakes first annual musical fes-
tival, the conductor of this or
ganization promised that Mr.. Shep-
herds composition would receive con-
sideratiOn on their next tour Word

Salt Lake. The entire public of Salt
Lake will certainly be pleased with
this announcement which comes from
Chicago. Musicians and lovers of mu-
sic in Salt Lake have long recognized
the fact that Mr.. Shepherd was a mu-
stefan of unusual ability. and that his
talent for composing was Of a very
high and marked character. That the
conductor of the Chicago Symphony
orchestra h9s decided to pIav Mr.
Shepherds work is another evidence
that Salt Lake is center of musical
talents and achievements.
The musical festival, which will COM
mence on the afternoon of April l. at
the tabernacle, promises to be the
greatest of its kind ever given in the
state. The Festival chorus and the
Tabernacle choir have been meeting

the direction of Professor Stephens.

Vaudeville at Orpheum.

Another announcement of a good bin
of advanced vaudeville is made by the
Orpneum management for next week
At the head of the bill comes that
old Salt Lake favorite actor, Howard
Kyle. Some of the very pleasantest
recOllections of Salt Lake theatricals
are closely entwined about the name
of Howard Kyle. and he is assured a
hearty and friendly greeting from his
admirers and friends. He comes with
a company and they present an artistic
and entertaining sketch, entitled ''The
Joke" The sketch is full of clever sit
uations and bright dialogue.
Bertha PeFtina comes heralded as
the queen of all toe-dancers, and if
her press notices are to be taken as
criterion, she certainly will prove to
be a real sensation.
BY way of diversion and variety. two
well-known English eccentric clowns,
PeTmane bTothgrs, come fresh from
Europe, where il is said they succeed
ed in extracting more laughs from their
audiences in a given length of time
than any other four clowns in the bust
ness.

The most dramatic scene in the piece
comes at the end of the third act.
JeOffray Colchester, who has been
made a major in the confederate army,
commands the bluff at the head of
the road to Vicksburg. The bluff must
be taken and Captain Herne leads the
forces. The brothers meet
in a hand to hand struggle and the
battle scene is most realistic. There
is vein of pure. wholesome comedy
running throughout the piece, and the
enga cement of Captain Herne, L. S.

song hit, by the way, is but one of
the many in the piece, which is cram

pen of A. Baldwin Sloane, the COM
poser of the music of the play. These
songs. which made their debut before
the fOOtlights only this season, have al
ready become household songs in many
of the places where the piece has been
played. The singers, as fair and bonny

for weeks on the college songs. which
they sing with such gusto, until their
voices blend with rare perfection. No

GREENWOOD BOYS PLAY INJUN.
Fooled Officers by Digging Cave with
Small Entrance.
Greenwood Index.)


Last week Gary Tarrant reported
to Chief McCombs and Constable j.
b. Riley that he had found a cave
near Blake spring, about 800 yards
distant, and he did not know who or
what 1t contained. The officers went
down at once and found a hole about
eighteen inches square and remnants
OF crackers, empty cans from a can
ned goods stock, and evidences that
1t was being used by some one. They
didn't know what to think at first.
Some fugitive from justice might be
inside or near by and there was no
telling how desperate he might be.
Proceeding cautiously and with hair
trigger preparation, they found the
cave empty. Going inside they found
a room about six feet square and saw
that it was used by somebody for
something. They did not know whe-
ther to set watch about the cave or
what. but finally 1t was developed
that the whole thing was harmless.
Some bright young boys, readers of
Robinson Crusoe or Nick Carter, had
conceived the idea and dug the cave
for playhouse. And that's all there

tempting, prove that one with God
can chase thousand, and two can
put ten thousand to flight. / can
imagine that the early Christians who
were carried into the arena to make
a spectacle for those more savage
than the beasts, were entreated by
their doubling companions not to
endanger their lives. But, kneeling
in the center Of the arena, they pray
ed and sang until they were deyour-
ed. How helpless they seemed and,
measured by every human rule, how
hopeless was their cause! And yet
which they invoked proved mightier
than the leglons OF the Emperor, and
the faith Ill which they died was tri-
umphant DER that land. 1t is said
that those who went to mock at their
|sufferings returned asking them
selves. What is 1t that can enter
into the heart Of man and make him
die as these die?" They were greater
conquerors in their death than they
could have been had they purchased
life by surrender Of their faith.
More Faith, o God, More Faith!
What would have been the fate Of
the church If the early Christians had
had as little faith as many Of our
Chris iians now have? And, on the
other hand, If the Christians OF to-
day had 1.-The faith OF the martyrs,
how long would 1t be before the full
|fillment of the prophecy that every
knee shall bow and every tongue con-
fess?
Our faith should be even stronger
than the faith Of those who lived two
thousand years ago, for we see our
religion spreading and supplanting
the PHILOSOPHERS and creeds Of the
Orient.
AS the Christian grows older he
appreciates more and more the COM
pleteness with which Christ fills the
requirements Of the heart, and, CRATE
full for the peace which he enjoys,
and for the strength which he has re-
ceived, he repeats the words of the
great scholar, Sir William jones',
Before thy mystic altar, heavenly
truth,
kneel in manhood, as i knelt In
youth.
Thus let me kneel, till this dull form
decay,
And life's last shade be frightened
by Thy ray

take advantage of his neighbor, and
the conscience when not scared will
admonish against injustice. My faith
In the future rests upon the belief
that Christ's teachings are being
more studied to-day than ever before,
and that with this larger study will
come an application of those teach
ings to the everyday life Of the
world. In former times, men read
that Christ came to bring life and
immortality to light, and placed the
emphasis upon immortality; now
they are studying Christ's relation to
human life. In former years many
thought to prepare themselves for
future bliss by a life of seclusion
here; now they are learning that
they cannot follow in the footsteps
of the Master unless they go about
doing good. Christ declared that He
came that we mirht have life and
have it more abundantly. The
world Is learning that Christ came
not to narrow life. but to enlarge it
to iii IL with purpose, earnestness
and happiness.
But this Prince of Peace promises
not only peace, but strength. Some
have thought his teachings fit only
for the weak and the timid and un-
suited 10 men OF V1SOr, energy and
ambition. Nothing could be farther
from the truth. Only the man Of
faith can be courageous. Confident
that he fights on the side Of Jehovah,
he doubts not the success of his
cause. What matters it whether he
shares in the shouts of triumph? II
every word spoken in behalf of truth
has it's influence, and every deed
done for the right weighs in the final
account, 1t Is immaterial to the Chris
tian whether his eyes behold victory
or whether he dies in the midst OF
the conflict.
Yea, though thou lie upon the dust,
When they who helped thee flee in
fear,
Die full of hope and manly trust,
Like those who fell in battle here.
Another hand thy sword shall WELD.
Another hand the standard wave,
Till from the trumpets mouth is
pealed
The blast of triumph Ger thy
