"Schumann 8 famous Hats off, Gen
tlemen, has been an abused and over
worked phrase. Nevertheless il is still
the standard method Of calling atten-
tion to a new creative personality in
music which in some significant way
lifts itself above its fellows. Abused
as the expression may be, it is neces.
sary to call it into requisition once moro
and to announce new name, that of
one of the most gifted and promising of
American composers - Alexander Hull.
His book of Ten Songs, is one Of the
most significant offerings Of the year,
not in the sense Of representing a fin.
ished product so much as in showing
the reaching out Of an eagor and i'm
aginative mind and ardent spirit.
"Mr Hull has included in his collec.
tion a number of songs written be-
tween nineteen-seven and the present
time which show in striking manner
the rapidity Of his recent artistic
growth. II may in fact be thought un-
wise to hGve included the earlier songs
at all, in view of their conventional
idiom and the highly modernized style
of the later songs. These earlier songs,
in particular Groom and "Asleep, -
may have been included for the sake Of
those who cannot easily follow the com
poser's later harmonic schome-.a sort
of sop to Ccrberus-although IL must be
said that the former is Of much force
of a kind not alien to that Of Tschai.

MUSICAL NOTES

from "The Tales Of Hoffman, and
the selection from Madam Butterfly
i This last encore gave wonderful bit OF
dramatic singing, and proved Madam
Aida to be truly entitled to the hon.
ors of star.
"Like Rose Bud" and "Expect.
ancy" delightful compositions of Mr..
LaForge, were exquisitely sung. Aida,
with charming grace signified her wish
that the author share with her the tre-
mendrous applause.
As pianist aud accompanist, Frank
LaForge is nothing less than wonder
full. His numbers were read with ad-
mirable understanding, evident feeling
for the more classic style Of the compo-
sition and fine clarity and accuracy.
J" "Lieberstraum" (Liszt) gave a glimpse
Of sentiment and poetic feeling in the
player, and "Rhapsodie" (Donnanyi)
was done in a fashion truly brilliant
and splendid.
The "Two Preludes" Of Chopin g
twenty-five, Grain Drops" in A flat,
and the D major octave, were beautiful
ly given, blending to appear as one
number. His encore was a gavotte,
with brilliant light octave passages and
theme in double thirds.
Mr.. LaForge is a remarkable accom-
panist, playing entirely without notes
and following the singer with splendid
execution and subtle tact.
1t was indeed a rare privilege to en-
joy the violoncello music by Gutia Ca
sini, newly-blossOmed genius, who is
everywhere creating furore. This
young man, not yet in his twenties,
gives promise of a name that will stand
highest in the musical world.
His interpretations appear like i'm.
provisations, so close to his heart he
seems to take the composer Is message;
and the warm human appeal of his vio-
loncello notes will enear him to all
lovers Of music in it highest aspect.
The programmed numbers were splen.
didly received and his encore "The
Swain" (Saint-Saens in D flat maior)
was an exquisite bit of music. His obi
gatos for Madam Aida were played with
delicate feeling and sentiment.
Miss Nina Fletcher, who will assist at
Madam Schumann-Heink s concert, Civ
en- on the fifth of next month, has stud
led since her eighth year of age. The
beginning was made in this country and
later continued in Europe with the best
instructors.
When Schumann- Heink first heard
her violin music, she pronounced it
wonderful and invited the artist to as
sis at her concerts.

represents the highest and best in the

were familiar and the appeal to en-
otions was instantaneous.
The immense audience warmly greet
ed Aida upon her first appearance on
the stage and the enthusiasm grew as
the concert progressed.
Seven numbers were given in English
but had they all been sung in foreign
tongues, the same exquisite notes of her
rare vocal gift would have bestowed
equal delight.

the diva left her apartments for the

looked it. She was so happy that she
had her manager almost frantic when
she sang eight numbers instead Of one
and little encore she expected.
In further proof of her happiness

'the ear. There is only one way to
cure Deafness, and that is by

is caused by an infamed condition
of the mucous lining of the

tube is inf1amed you have a rumbl-
ing sound or imperfect hearing and
when it is entirely closed, Deaf
ness is the result, and unless the
inflammation can be taken out and
this tube restored to its normal
condition hearing will be forever
destroyed; nine cases out of ten

INDIAN FIGHTER GOES
TO ARIZONA TO SPEND DAYS

V. B. Sabine, who carries his 72
years about as lightly as man
could. and looks to be nearer SO
than his real age, spent last week
in town having come from the
Lahontan dam, where he has been
running the pumps in the river bed
that keeps the flow IF water from
interfering with the progress of
the concrete work. Mr.. Sabine is
son of the two survivors of the
Pyramid Lake massacre, which
occurred in May 1860. This tragedy
is famous in the annals Of Indian
fighting, and occurred at the
hands of the entire Piute tribe,
when a detchment Of 105 men
under Major Ormsby, after whom
Ormsby county was nameu, followed
the redskir from a point up the
Carson River from Fallon where a
day or two previously the Piutes
had prutally murdered FIVE white
men, to scene of conflict where a
bloody battle was fought, but 49
of the entire 105 living to tell the
tale. Major Ornsby was among
those killed in the unequal battle
which WIS waged for many hours.
The atrocity leading up to the
conflict occurred within what is
now the Lahontan reservoir site
and within another year will he
covered by water. The detach-
ment under Major Ormsby which
was detached to apprehend and
administer punitive measures, took
up the trail at the scene Of the
murders end followed to the edge
of Pyramid Lake gave battle which
later owing to the overwhelming
numbers of the Piutes proved to
be a veritable massacre and has
gone down in history as being such
MIR. Sabine expects to go to San
Francisco shortly, from where he
will go to Arizona, where he will
locate. He has been a familiar

COULD NOT BEAT
SALOON LICENSE

Because Gustave Loose stayed at
the Belmont saloon at the corner Of
Crook and Columbia. streets for
two weeks of the new year instead
Of closing down his place promptly
at midnight on December l. 1912.
he was in debt to the state $50 for
his license fee for 1913 and to the
county $50 for the first quarter
1918. The law is that these license
fees must be paid in advance.
That Loose was about to close
up his place was known. but he
continued to sell liquor there
right along after the first of the
month. Last Saturday Deputy
Sheriff Mercer. who keeps account
of the licenses at the sheritf's Office,
notified Loose that the license was
due and payable. Deputy Sheriff
Bogard notified him on Saturday
and again yesterday.
Last night Loose closed the doors
of his place finally at midnight.
This morning when he started to
move out his chairs and furniture,
Deputy Sheriff Bogard very
promptly arrested him and took
him to Jail on a charge of selling
liquor without license. In Jail
Loose thought about it for awhile
and then sent for a friend. The
friend handed over $50 and Loose
was released. -Goldfeld Tribune.
