idea Of the reception of the orchestra
i'll other cites of the country.
Milwaukee "Evcning Wisconsin. =
Dec. 80, 19l0.--The orchestra certain.
ly was greeted with a full measure: of
appreciation, the applause following
all the numbers being spontaneous,
stormy and prolonged. William
Thieck's beautiful playing OF the
trumpet aria with Mr.. Martin, the
basso, was one of the noteworthy fea.
lures of the evening. The trumpet
sounded in way that would have
made Mr.. Handel himself "awaken .;
with joy.
Perhaps it is we'll that it is not
given to mortals many times in a life
time to listen to such music az the
Schubert "Unfinished Symphony as
it was played by the ST. Paul Sym
phony Orchestra last Tuesday. 1t is
difficult to express the impression made
by the exquisite clearness and dclicacy
which made it possibl etc trace every
phrase from group to group Of instrr-
mcnts, and through all it phases until
repeated in some other voice, and the
reading which Mr.. Rothwell gave it
was in every way calculated to enhance
the somber yearning of the first move
ment, while continuing to u ligltenetl
tenderness in the second, which hasa
curious completeness without q third.
There is no soloist who sings before St.
Paul audiences who receives quite 50

ing and her lovable personality. Like

last Sunday that devastated the
the farming regions to no small
extent. Nine persons were killed
and over a hundred seriously in

heavy. Severe storms often follow

kind this year.

Conditions are said to be ia,
better in this state than last yea,

said about ruined crops. During
August of last year there was a

averaged one a week. The mer-

a crop this year and prosperity is
