Getting the Musical Pitch.

Musical pitch has curious tendency
to creep up. 1t Is said that Bach's
music sounds much differently now
from what it did when Bach wrote It
because the instruments are now
pitched higher. In 1882 it was found
that the pitch Of high A at the Vienna
Court Opera had crept from the pre-
scribed 435 double vibrations a second
to 443, and in 1885 this number had
further increased to $50. Accordingly
a musical conference was held, and
resolution was taken to re-establish
the old pitch Of 435 vibrations per
second. Upon this announcement the
Reichsanstalt, the imperial physical
and technical institute Of Germany.
set up standard instruments and has
since tested and corrected many hun

ming the arms II they are too high. All
the military orchestras Of Germany
are pitched alike, and the Reichsan-
stadt keeps the tuning forks correct.

Quiet Grace.

Mr. Blobbs dined the other evening
with some friends. When the guests
were seated the host bent his head
and began speaking in subdued tone.
-~.'Eh, what's that?" demanded Blobbs,
who. sat beside him and who Is rather
deaf.
The host smiled patiently and began
again in louder voice.
''Speak little louder; don't catch
what you say" Blobbs persisted.
A low ripple of laughter went round
the table. The host, his face crimson
with embarrassment, raised his voice
still higher The poor old man did his
best to hear, but failed -.
What did you sayy' he demanded
irasctbly
The host cast him an angry glance.
''Dang it, I'm saying grace" he yelled.

There's Times to Pray and Time to Fight"
Lands Preacher in Prison for Manslaughter

SAVANNAH, Ga, July q
Up in the mountains of North
Georgia little Baptist congrega-
ton is waiting with the patience
and stolidity of the hill people
for the return of their shepherd,
who, with a bible in his pocket
and the fear of GOD in his heart, -
has constituted himself a mission
airy to the convicts on the state
farm, where he is himself serving
a term to answer for the life of a
fellow creature.
Carter Lingerfelt, moonshiner
and desperate, fired by the drink
he had himself brewed, attempted
to break up a church meeting at
which Rev. James A. Kimmons,
tall, raw-boned, militant and de-
vout, presided. Believing literally
in fighting the battles of his God,
Kimmons declined to turn the 9TH
er cheek when he WAS struck upon
one of them. A fight ensued. Sew
|eral revolver shots were fired, one
of them finding Judgment in Ling
'erfelt's heart. The Rev. Mr.. Kim
mons was convicted of the crime of
manslaughter. and sentenced to
serve eight years.

years. His 30-ton boat beached
itself, after five hours fighting,
and Pomeroy floated ashore on

brought in his three shipmates.
But Pomeroy considers that mere

10000 Hear
Big Concert

With 10000 persons present,
the four days celebration by Ia
coma opened yesterday afternoon
with the great sacred concert In
the stadium.
The chorus of 1000 voices had
dwindled to $50, but every one
was a singer, and it WAS the most
majestic musical feature ever
known in Tacoma.
Charles Derbyshire was the vocal
soloist of the day, and his singing
was a revelation. Every person in
the stadium could understand dis
tinctly every tone and word, reaf-
firming the public estimation not
only of the singer, but of the ac-
coustic qualities of the stadium.
The afternoon was ideal for the
inauguration of the carnival, and
the spectators were also pleased
by the appearance of the Cheyenne
as she steamed into the harboI
and anchored right off the sta
dunn.

rescued.
He was under three minutes
