Tuning Forks.

The tuning fork was the invention
Of John Stone. royal trumpeter. in
1911. Though the pitch of forks varies
slightly with changes of the tempera-
ture or by rust. they are the most ac-
curate means of determining pitch.
Tuning forks are capable Of being
made of any pitch within certain linn
Its, but those commonly used are the
notes A and G. giving the sounds rep
resented by the second and third
spaces In the treble stave.

Illinois GIee Club.

The Illinois Glee Club appear
edatthe local opera house, Thurs
day nightin by far the best mus
ical given in the Lyceum Course
this year. The music lovers of
Canyon looked forward to this
entertainment with much pleas
ure but the program, rendered
by this organization of unusual
merit, gave even more pleasure.
The Club is well trained, their
voices blending in perfect melo-
dy, the result being delightful
and never perhaps was an aud
fence more completely captivated.
The hand bell novelty, an arrang-
ment of well-tuned bells, was
one of the marvellous features of
the evenings entertainment
played blythe quartette in unison.
This entertainment is only one
of the many given in this Lyce-
um course but those Of the mu-
sic lovers, who were unable to
attend, may yet have a chance to
hear some of the best musical
talent of the United States.

The damage wrought was consider
able but hardly as great as had been
feared The loss of life in this city
was confined to the drowning of two
men in the harbor. The loss to prop
erty will not eXceedt $1,000,G00 and is
limited largely to waterfront property.
The business life of the capital was
resumed today.
Telegraphic communication with the
interior is still impossible, but it is
believed that the principal damage
was done in Pinar Del Rio province
where it is officially estimated BY
Lopez Leiva, the secretary of govern
ment, that 1000 casualties occurred.
including however comparatively few
fatalities.

Mr.. Mansfield was made the nominee of
the convention with the understand
ing that it was of stop gap order
and only that the party might have
candidate on record. The law gives
Mr.. Mansfield until Thursday night
to withdraw and the committee until
next Monday night to fill the vacancy.
At o'clock tonight, Mr.. Mansfield
had made no effort to withdraw his
name.
The state committee, however, will
enter at once upon the campaign as
only three weeks remain and it is ex-
pected that Mr.. Foss will appear night
ly on the stump with denunciatiOn of
the Republican administration of state
affairs as the battle cry
Mr.. Foss is an old campaigner, al
though comparatively recent convert
to Democracy. He ran unSucceSSfully
as Republican in two congressional
campaigns and two years ago entered
the ranks of the opponents and was
beaten last year for the lieutenant
governorship by less than 5000 votes.
Last spring he won a notable con-
gressional election in the 14th congress

Valley in the Fanieul Hall convention
was said to have gained Mr.. Cassidy
the second position on the first ballot

while like a division i'm the party at
the polls.
Mr. Mansfield was found at a down.
town hotel tonight by members of the
committee of four. who pleaded with
him to make some statement as to
what stand he intended to take. Mr..
