Psychology Of Woman's Dress.


The proverbially hollow mind of the
very beautiful woman is not due to The
exhaustion of natures resources on her
exterior. but to the fact that her attention
is SO bound up with the expression of he!'
own charm that it stops with that. And
the homely woman who completes with
her has a still more absorbing problem.
The foolish and disrespectful customs OF
courtesy which men practice toward
women are also a product of woman $
dress, and tend to keep her helpless In
mind and body. The helplessness involved
in lacing, high heels. undivided skirts
and other. impedimenta of women has a
certain charm in the eyes of man Their

ing freer play TO his protective and mas
terful instincts. 1t is his heroic oppor-
tunity since the disappearance of large
game and in the piping times of peace.
To fatter this disposition of man wom-

romantic periods in history are those

Creation of Music Division.


thors to deposit in the Library of Con-
gress two copies of each article thus pro-
tected, was the parent of the division of
music as we'll as of the division of prints.
Through Its instrumentality a vast guam
tity of sheet music was accumulated, the
value and character of which, as WELL
perhaps. as the amount We're little known
until in 1897 the collections were removed
from the Capitol to the new library build
ing. Then 1t was that the division of
music was definitely set aside. At that
time the object was merely to arrange
and care for the material which was al
ready in hand with that which was con-
tlnually pouring in, that 1t might, in
measure, be made available and of serv-
ice. But as this classification progressed
it became more and more evident that
here was field deserving Development
one which under expert care might prove
profitable. not merely to the chance in
diVidual but to the nation.
The question was where to find man
qualified to assume the direction. for, in
the first place, he must be genuinely in
terested in American music, respectful
of its past and hopeful of its future, and
he must have thorough musical educa-
ton, familiarity with the great collec-
tionS of the world, knowledge of history
and a love of the art. No wonder the
quest seemed difficult. 1t so happened,
however, that while the librarian, Her
bert Putnam, was still bordering this
question, young man with bulky
manuscript under his arm was one day
ushered into his Office. This was Mr..
Sonneck, and he came not seeking the
position-in fact not knowing that it
might exist-but with the intent of offer
ing to the Library of Congress for pub
LEGATION a photography of secular Ameri-
can music up to 1900. which he had COM
piled and wished to place at the disposal
Of others. At that time the library did
not see its way clear to avail itself of
the offer. but it did persuade Mr.. Sonneck
to stay and become the chief of the music
division.

prove especially valuable in hospitals and

There would thus be chance for the
glass getting mixed and reaching the

Scores of Modern Operas.

What chiefly aWakenS the admiration
and envy of other collectors is the
great number of scores of modern
opera composers that are included n
this collection. Here, for instance, are
the works of Wagner, Saint-Saens,
Peter Cornilius, Richard Strauss, PUG
c1nl, Verdi, MaScagni and others, to-
gether with the choicest compositions
of Handel, Weber. Mozart, Mendels-
sohn, Schubert, Schumann, Gluck and
many more. Among these to be sure
are certain rarities such as Vitalis
"Aretusa,' Rinaldo da Cupua's La
Bohemienne" and Caesar Franck's
'Hulda," but greater stress is laid
upon the comprehensive character of
licity, than upon any amount Of spe-
cialization.
On the other hand it has been and is the
desire of the music division to acquire and
preserve, as far as possible, autograph
copies Of American compositions, and the
sincerest gratitude is entertained for such
gifts which have been made by certain
composers Indeed, it is with no small
amount Of pride that the library counts
| among its possessions autograph scores of
MacDowellsS Indian Suite Dudley
Bucks opera, "Serapis,' and Pane's un-
finished symphonic poem on Lincoln. And
in this same vein the music division has
endeavored to collect all the patriotic
songs that have significance. together
with those that are inherently national
the "by-product' of the civil war period
southern melodies and the like. This, not
merely on account of worth but because
it Is a national library.
And what has been said of the music
is also true of the books on music. About
one-third of all that were printed before
1S0O-not, of course. counting different
editions or tranSlationS-are now included
in the Library of Congress. Some of the
publications date back to the fifteenth

The LIST of December unique exhi-
bition will be set forth at the Library of
Congress. In the six cases in the main
hall, in which some famous book Illus
trations are now to be seen. will be
shown a collection not of engravings, nor

but 1t will be of general as we'll as spe-
cial interest. One or two Of the cases,
for example, will be given over to Amer
icana, including autograph scores by
Paine and Mcdowell, and early copies
adams and Liberty and Dixie" Con-
siderable space also will be given to or
chestral scores of operas. both in manu-
script and printed. beginning with Marco
da Gagliano's "Dafne'' and concluding
with 'Salome,' by Richard Strauss. And
In addition to these will be displayed quite
a number of rare books on music, printed
before 1900. by such theOreticianS as
Aaron, Gaffurio and Tovar In short,
even to the animated, those to whom the
scientific and technical sides of music are
mysteries, this exhibition should prove at
tractive.
OF much deeper import, however, than
the event itself is the work for which
it stands-a work national in it's scope
which is being carried on by the division
of music, under the able direction of
Oscar G. Sonneck.

THE LADIES HOLD
DEMOCRATIC RALLY.
FAIR SPEAKERS FROM DENVER
Mothers Have Nc Use for Their
Sons Than Sending TO War.

''If there is any reason why women
the country over should give their
allegiance to the democratic party, II
is because of the military spirit OF
the republican party. We have a
better use for our sons in these days
than sending them to war. Ellis
Meredith.
'The democratic party is one that
every woman should feel proud to
vote for. or."-Helen Grenfell.
The above are extracts from the
splendid addresses made Saturday
afternoon at the democrats meeting
for women, held in the Unitarian
church. The parlors were crowded
with both men and women who had
turned out to hear the distinguished
speakers from Denver, one Of whom,
at least. has national reputation as
a Journalist, short story writer ana
politician.
Miss Ellis Meredith, the first
speaker of the afternoon, was INTRO
duced by Miss McElroy, and covered
a wide range of subjects during the
few moments that she spoke. Among
the various topics on which she
touched were the banking question,
the republican colonial policies ana
the republican party's admiration tnr
itself in that ''it fought the Spanish
American war" Miss Meredith grew
eloquent over this last topic. In COM
mon with the other speakers. she
urged the necessity of every woman
voting at the coming election.
Helen Ring Robinson was the sec
ond speaker. and her charmingly IN
formal manner won everyone from
the start. In spite of her attitude
toward her audience, she was capable
of impressive phrasing, and her ilst
of charges against the present
regime was fairly formidable and
was delivered in telling manner.
A cross little youngster had been dis
putting the floor with her during her
entire speech. and at the close OF her
talk she made dash into the audi
ence. secured the kiddo. and bearing
the future voter up to the front, IN
structed her on how TO cheer for |
Bryan.
The speakers arrived on the $3.50 |
motor and had TO make the 4:3o
back, so Mrs. Grenfell's time was ne
cessarily limited. but she got in some
good work in the few minutes that
were left her. and. as usual, made
good impression upon her audience.
All of the speakers urged the ne
cessity of the women of the county
voting at the coming election, and
Miss McElroy spoke of the need OF
having one womn for each precinct
in the county, and especially in Gree
ley, who would see that the women
turned out to vote
