only the best selected fife and blue stem

FARGO MUSICALLY

The changes wrought upon the map
Of a city Of the character Of Fargo,
which while it has no claims for
greatness, in the sense that the term
is used in the case of great metro
politan centers, through the various
stages of growth is nowhere better
exemplified than in the fortunate
sequence of events which now places
Fargo at a point of vantage which is
important when 1t comes to the seek
ing Of a musical education, or seek
ing the ground work of such an edu-
cation.
1t was in 1887 when the first move
was made in Fargo to attract the
learners of music. Then it was that
a conservatory of music was estab-
lished in connection with Fargo COL
lege, when one musical enthusiast had
the temerity to announce the founda-
ton OF a conservatory. All the coll
lege authorities could do. at that time,
was to lend its aid and influence and
dignity the move with its auspices
Today, that same institution has
grown to very important proportions
and possesses far more than a state
wide reputation. In Fargo today there
are two Conservatives employing
corps of recognized pedagogues. who
have held eminent positions elsewhere,
but have come to Fargo because of
the professional advantages offered.
In addition to conservatories. Fargo
presents to the visiting student, mu-
steal departments Of unusual merit
in the several schools and academies,
and music is prominent in the courses
offered at the state agricultural COLI
lege. In the course of the growth
of the city, supervisor of recognized
ability has been added to the corps
of teachers in the city schools

ADVISES ROOSEVELT

CAMBRIDGE Mass.-"Politics" was
the subject of an address made by
Theodore Roosevelt recently to the class
studying Government at Harvard.
Seven hundred students heard him.
The Colonel advised all of the mem
bers of the class to go into politics
when they are graduated. He declar-
ed the training they are receiving at
Harvard will emlnently 1T them for
political work Col. Roosevelt said he
throughly believes in politics which
he has personally advocated.
Col, Roosevelt denounced the nomina-
ton for political Offices of men who
had no previous position in politics
because they have made no enemies.
Col, Roosevelt spoke on the necessity
of combining book knowledge and
practical experience and instanced
The Federalist as an example of The
result of the working out of that COM
bination.
"The Federalist." he said was in

signed for that purpose and was used
In that way" Col Roosevelt said the
same necessity for book knowledge
and practical experience was demon
strated in the discussion of the aboli-
ton question.
Commenting on. the fact that the
graduate is likely to be supercilious
and to sneer at politicians, he said :
DO not only have debit side in your
account with public men, have the
credit side too"
In speaking of the necessity of the
participation of the college graduate in
politics he said; Go into politics not
merely to do the nation good, but that
the nation may do you good A man
who cannot work with his fellows in
politics may be too vrtuOus for them,
but II Is more probable that he is too
foolish and finicky."

IL was polo, from start to finish,
that turned the grand stands into
something curiously like the bleach

have been sacred TO baseball for so
many years. For four Of the eight
periods of the game the Englshmen

down in their excitement No ninth
inning of q tied baseball game ever
ended in an uproar like that which
marked the close of this sixth period.
In the seventh period Milburn
scored the last goal of the game. That
ended the excitement. The strain had
told on the Americans. just as II had
told on the EnElishmcn. For the rest
of the period, and throughout the
eighth, neither side could do more
than dribblc the ball about one cor
ncr of the field Neither side cared
to do more than this, II seemed, aud
when the final gong had sounded the
ponies might have been doing high

crowd went home All the way they
figured out new odds To give on the
Englshmcn whom the second game
of the series Is played ON Monday at
ternoon. Neither the Americans nor
the Englishmcn cared for another
such an afternoon before that time.
The Americans had bad attack of
stage fright in the early periods of
the game. Their team work was
wretched and their individual playing
was worse. The ball seemed like a
pea 10 them. They could not hit II
and they rode over II repeatedly.
