of the orchestra and its gifted con
ductor. May I6 at the Moline theater.
-The secret OF the success OF the
Minneapolis Symphony orchestra and
its conductor is that the ave grown
in artistic development and into the
state of authority and fame together
Mr. Oberhoffer came here 20 years ago.
a young but full hedged musician. wen
stocked with technical knowledge and
not without solid experience as the
artistic performer and conductor. But
q more famous. more experienced man
would not have had the patience. the
ambition. the enthusiasm Of Mr.. Ober-
hoffer. = Richter. a Nikisch would
rot have suited the situation. When
shortcomings. misgivings. such as any
many would have TO face under the
circumstances, had to be met with
and ovdcome. an older man would
have been tempted to seek other fields
OF activity. to accept other offers.
sWhen Mr.. Oberhoffer first took up
his baton TO WELD II over the sym
phony orchestra, il struck 5 forcibly
how much fine constituencies there
was in the man. This thorough Ger
man musician evinced an extreme re-
hnement which anyone would have
set down as genuinely French. 1t was
in the highly poetic interpretations
of the symphonic poems Of Saint
Saens and List that the rare orig
fnality OF his ability as a conductor
first manifested itself. Gradually ii
dawned upon US all as the music OF
Tschaikowsky, Smetana, Dyorak. Gries
and Sibelius interchanged with that
of Brahms. Berlioz, Franck, Debussy
and Strauss. the wonderful versatility
of this truly cosmopolitan spirit which
in intuitive light seems TO find new
paths. new colors. new values. And
this poet-conductcr is a master build
CT of programs. Mr.. Oberhoffer sell
dom follows any strict chronology, or
eclectic purpose in his construction of
programs, but he has 4 unique talent I
for getting together compositions that, |

that promise which has since ripened
into mature artistic accomplishment.
Unlike many youthful prodigies'
Miss Durno was not permitted TO play
too long While yet child she was
retired to diligent and serious study.
The supreme musical moment OF the
young pianist's life came when she
played for Leschetisky. in Vienna The
great master gave potent proof OF his
vital interest by instantly placing
Miss Durno in his private class.
The imaginative girl threw herself
heart and soul into the study of in
terpretation. and under the fostering
care of Leschetizky mastered the art
of transferring her personality and
musical sensations to the keyboard.
The master, always chary about pre-
mature public appearances OF his
gifted charges, allowed Jeanette
Durno full liberty in this direction, and
personally secured for her several i'm
portant engagements. On the subject
OF her playing at this time there was
but one verdict. Critics praised and
public applauded.
Returning to America, in a series
of recitals and appearances with the
leading orchestras. Miss Durno quick
" established her artistic status, and
the last few seasons have made her
one of the busiest as well as one of
the most popular pianists before the
public.
Frail of figure. Jeanette Durno's
is of the intense, nervous
kind. Her physique and her nature are
Slavic in composition, like Paderew
skis and Pachmann's. The delicate, re-
fined waco and thoughtful eye denotes
a studious, retrospective nature. The
firm mouth tells of determination and
artistic poise. As a type of modern
young American woman, who by her
own untiring energy and constant en-
deavor succeeds in bringing her talent
to successful fruition, Jeanette Durno
must be acknowledged as a worthy
and shining example.

lBonne Terre News.)

, NNNOANANN
For some time past Mr.. J. P.
Spence, our hustling townsman, has
been busily engaged in securing op-
tions on lead land in this county,
practically all of which land issituated
within radius of 219 to 3 miles of
Bonne Terre.
If all reports are true, and we have
ample reason to believe they are, Mr..
Spence has associated himself with an
interested company of capitalists who
are in position to build mills and
operate the now optioned land on
very extensive scale, which would
terminate this into one of the largest
lead producing enterprises Of our
county.
In the event that lead in large
enough quantities should be found in
the district they have chosen to oper-
ate prospecting drills, then the COM
pany it is said, would build railroad
lines within four or five miles Of
Bonne Terre, thus bringing to us an
era Of prosperity and commercialsm
as has never been known in this coun-
ty.
Mr.. Spence is known for his push
and hustling qualities and now that he
has successfully interested the capital
lists to develop our rough lands lying
west Of Bonne Terre and In this man
ner bring to US untold good fortune,
should all plans work out, he merits
much. He has about three thousand
five hundred acres under option at
this time all of which is in a solid
block with the exception Of one or
two small tracks.

When Mrs. Henry and arrived at
the Station here, we found brother
Mann Ringo, an old pupil OF mine,
waiting for us with surrey. We soon
found ourselves and our suit cases in
the parsonage, and few minutes la
ter found ourselves just across the
street partaking of most excellent
dinner From that day to this these
good people have made us feel very
much at home. They have uniformly
shown that they know how to well.
come new pastor to their charge.
For some of these courtesies / am in
debted to thoughtful, kindly sugges-
tions of my predecessor, Rev. j. r. A.
Vaughan. The outlook is hopeful in
many ways, and we are delighted with
our appointment. The air is free
from Impurities, and. the excellent
water is health giving Bethesda
Spring, owned by Louis Miller, Esq,
is said to be good for indigestion, and
am prepared to believe this. The
beautiful fringe of mountains which
entirely surrounds this valley of
witc heries, has appeared more lovely
than ever since the foliage has fallen SO
that we can see it's entire circum-
ference.
or course the summer events of
most Importance in the "Valleyn are
the Methodist Assembly and the Bap-
tist Encampment, the former of which
will open some time early in July,
and the latter August Sd. We hope
the attractions will be sufficient to
draw very many, not only of Metho-
dists and Baptists, but Of all classes at
our next sessions We of the Assem-
bly, are planning for large things on as
economical a basis as possible, and we
do not expect our Baptist Brethren
to be found wanting.
For the benefit of the Assembly,
our Annual Conference levied upon
the various charges an assessment of
ten cents per member. Hence the
only collections next year, II the vari-
GUS charges come up with a fair per-
centage of the assessment, will be
simply the incidental offerings always
taken in a Methodist meeting.
The weather has been 80 delightful
that we expected some OF our friends
over to have an outing and to see us,
but so far they have not reported.
We shall be glad to see any of them.
ssGrandmau Thompson came two
weeks after we arrived, and so great
have been the tonic effects OF our air
and water upon her that she thinks
she Is renewing her youth. There is
no doubt she feels very much renew
ed.
The many friends Of Rev, Z. F. AS
pley, who until the Sunday before our
coming, had been unable to attend
church for many months, will be glad to
learn that he has soimproved In health
that he Is regular attendant at morn
ing service. He is a great blessing to
