1t Is discouraging to artists to appear
before American audiences. l talket
on this subject with musician In
Paris. He said that intelligent faces
before a singer were a means of inspir-
ation--they showed him they under

to express the beauty of his part. II
the audience does not fall in with the
spirit OF the music. an artist cannot lie
his best. We agreed that Americans
are not musical enough to encourage
artists as foreigners do"
But" q student interrupted, "the
lack OF appreciation Is preferable to
the form which too much appreciation

Anglo Saxon music came from two
sources--the clergy and the laity. The
clergy wanted to conduct the music of
their services In certain manner to
the accompaniment of IL species of or

bringing to church all kinds of instru-
ments. such as the harp, Tyre, Growth,
pipe, tabor and cymbals. Much quar-

UNITED STATES LOSES TRADE,
Lack Of Steamship Facilities to South
America is Deplored.


Washington, Dec. IF the United
States is to get her share of the ever
increasing trade of South and Central
America, she must establish adequate
steamship service to the ports Of coun-
tries south of her. If she does not do
so speedily. the European countries,
which are energetically seeking South
and Central American trade, will COM
pletely outdistance this nation in the
markets of the southern portion Of the
continent.
This is the general proposition adj
vanced In urgent language by John
Barrett, director OF the International
Bureau of the American Republics, In
his annual report, just made public.
Mr.. Barrett considers South and Cen
trail American trade in detail and
manufacturers and merchants of this
country that they will be beaten by
European manufacturers and mer-
chants unless they see to 1t that bet
ter ships are put into the South and
Central American service.
Mr.. Barrett points that out that, al
tho the total trade of the United States
with the part of the world In question
grew from 1891, 900. 600 in 1897 to $780,
100000 in 1907. yet that in the latter
year European countries got by far the
greater portion of the trade. In that
year the total trade between Latin AM
erica and the entire world amounted to
the enormous sum Of 50, 100000, 900.

Snow, Sends Temperature to

NIGHT COOLEST IN YEARS
Street Car Service Tied Up by Snow,

Badly Handicapped by the Extreme
Cold - Six Inches Of Snow Falls in
Few Hours.

Winter. with heavy fall OF snow
arrived unexpectedly and without
warning Saturday night and Sunday,
making its arrival the earliest and
most severe in years. Snow, to DEPTH
of six inches, fell in few hours dur
/ ing the early part of Saturday night

which sent the temperature to 10 de-
grees below zero last night.

minimum temperature is in marked
comparison with SO above for the same

before, II above in 1905, and Is above
for 1904.

Mr.. Pilot is the principal stakeholder

socket in the room which she intends
to heat. and either turn a switch or
press button. The radiator will in
a few seconds be giving off any heat

the radiator may be placed on a
marble slab mounted on casters and

Wherever electric wires are installed
the heating apparatus may be at

In. the denatured alcohol apparatus
a small tank back of the radiator holds
the heating fluid. This connects with
a burner placed in the center Of the
coils and small brass tubes

the company has invented a special
