DRUDGERY OF MUSIC.
Joachim Practiced One Composition
For Over Sixty Years.


When an interviewer, who had
put to Kubelik a question as to the
number of hours day he practiced,
was answered, practically all my
waking hours" it is probable that
the interrogation, as well as others
who heard the reply, thought the
response a bit of artistic exaggera-
ton. Yet there is much evidence
to sustain Kubelik's assertion.
Paganini, the greatest of all vio-
linists, was compelled by an avari-
cious father to practice twelve or
fourteen hours each day. So wearied
did Paganini become Of his drudg-
cry that for several years he actual
ly laid aside the instrument over
which he had such consummate
control and devoted himself to ag-
ricultural pursuits. This period of
musical disgust soon passed, how
ever, and the violinist again turned
to his hard work, and to such good
purpose that there was nothing
written for the violin, no matter
what its technical difficulties might
be, that he was not able to play
Late in his life Paganini gave over
his practicing, for the reason, it is
said, that he then played only his
own compositions.
A saying of Rubinstein's indi::
Gates concisely the Importance OF
unwearying practice, Should / not
practice for a day | know it, should
/ miss two days my friends know
it, and should | miss three days
even the public knows it"
Joachim, another violinist, during
his student days was an inmate OF
the house of his master, and it was
largely due to the memorable de-
mands to practice that the teacher
laid on him that Joachim was en-
abled to attain his proud position
The room wherein the pupil prac-
ticed was without any window, but
had a glass panel in the door. If
the sound of Joachim's violin ceased
for a moment during the hours set
apart for practice, then could be
seen the scowling face of the in
structor peering through the panel.
Joachim practiced one composition
the difficult Beethoven concerto
for over sixty years.
Mendelssohn has left an interest
ing observation touching his ardu-
GUS hours of practice Speaking of
certain recitals he was giving on
the organ, he said: 81 became so
interested in my work that whole
DAYS passed like hours. | practiced
pedal passages to such an extent
that the act of walking along the
street actually transformed itself
into a fugue, so automatic had my
movements become"

tons, one of which is a penchant
for a nocturnal running OF the
scales. The great Pole has been
known to spend the whole night in
achieving perfection in one or two
runs of a composition he is study

Paderewski has said that the
greatest foe a musician has to fight
is the feeling of safety that is sure
to Cypress him should his work be

the Pole finds that he must acquire

DEMOCRATIC TARIFF BILL
Views of Henry D. Clayton of Alabama
on Subject

Views of Henry D. Clayton OF Alabama
on Subject
HenryD. Clayton, of Alabama, chair
man of the Democratic caucus OF the
house, expressed his views at Washing
ton as to the Democratic attitude on
the revision of the tariff.
"In my opinion it is not sufficient for
the Democrats in the next congress to
assume an attitude of simple negation
and oppose what the Republicans offer.
We must formulate an entire tariff
bill, covering every schedule from
agates to zinc and go to the commit
tee of the whole with it, champion it,
demand revision on every schedule
and ask for the yeas and nays on it in
the house.
"The bill should be considered care
fully in pinciple and in detail--ir.
short, it Should be measure on which
we can go to the country. The Demo-
Gratis are unexcelled in kicking things
to pieces; let us show that we can put
things together as the old party did in
the time of Jackson and of Polk. We
can do it, but it requires an effort.
"Tnen we are to have, SO it's said,
the maximum and minimum tariff,
which is another name for reciprocity.
Of course, the Republicans will insist
on making the maximum as large as
they dare; but our bill might fit in
for the minimum in some of the SEIZED
ules, and let us press it.
"The Republicans cannot revise the
tariff down Who gethers figs from
thistles or grapes from thorns? Yet
that is the crop of figs and grapes Can
non, Aldrich, Burrows, Dalzell and

taking the part of the chorus, a neces-
sary auxiliary but not counting for

The assembly will have too strong
an administration majority to count

fireworks. There may be few sky

perhaps none at all on some meas

HAMS DEFENSE BEGINS

The defense in the case of Thornton

Attorney Eugene Young, represent

had moved that the Indictment against
Hams be dismissed, but the motion
was denied Mr. Young then proceed
ed with his argument, taking the posi-
ton that a person charged with being
an accessory to the commission of a
crime could not be tried until it was
proved that the principal was guilty
Fright there / disagree with you,
Judge Crane said. II hold that this
man may be guilty of murder in the
first degree, as a proposition Of law,
although the man who held the revolv-
er and fired the shot was not guilty
of murder and was insane.
81 am going to hold that a man may
be guilty of a murder committed by a
lunatic if he aided and encouraged it
knowingly, and Intentionally knowing
the act and it's consequences. In my
opinion a man who is present at the
commission of crime and aids and
abets it is not even an accessory under
the common law, but principal"

The two students took a canoe dur.

at s o'clock in the evening, but when
they had not arrived home at 10

During the remainder of the spring

here and the parents of the two boys
offered rewards for the recovery of the
bodies. but without avail. No clew

Until recently man was kept in
Madison who watched the lakes daily
for the appearance of the bodies, but

Money in His Care.
Waukesha, Wis, Dec 29.--J w.
Glenn, son of Mayor M. w. Glenn, of
this city who committed suicide
Christmas day by hanging at Kent,
Wash, was we'll known on the Pacific
coast where he had been in the en-
ployment of one OF the large steamship
companies for the last eight years. He
had personal supervision of the ship
ment of large consignments of gold
from the Yukon country to California,
frequently having in his charge gold to
the value of several million dollars.
The responsibility connected with his
position is said TO have made him a
nervous wreck.
When the season closed last October
he went to Seattle where friends no
ticed that he acted in an unusual man
ner and feared that he had become
demented. Two months ago he at
tempted suicide by drinking carbolic
acid and was subsequently in sana-
forum for time. He had been stay
ing at Seattle and on Christmas day
went to Kent. thirty miles distant,
where he took his life. Mayor Glenn
is unable to go to Seattle at this time
and has wired to have the body in
tered at Lake View cemetery, Seattle.
Both sons of Colonel Glenn met
tragic deaths, his youngest son, Eu-
gene, having been killed by a fall from
a bridge in the Indian territory, eight
years ago.
