MUSICAL transformers FIND
RICHMOND IN A ERICID MOOD

An aggregation of musical barn

New York Metropolitan Company"
gave an alleged concert at the Murray

ence.
The cause of their appearance was
this:
Their printed matter, which read
like much other advance" matter,
was sent by their manager to the To-
cal theatrical manager
AS he does not handle companies of
this character he turned their printed
matter over to a local concert mana
ger.
The latter knowing nothing of the
merits of the company, passed it up
The company, however, whose rep
resentatives admitted to a newspaper
write that musical conditions Ion the
road" were bad. bombarded Mr.. Muir
ray with letters and kilograms for an
engagement.
He finally told them they could
come on certain date at their own
risk, and made no effort to work up
an audience other than through the
regular channels of theatrical notices
The program they sent on, was,
from musical standpoint, high grade

AS many excellent music tour
ing the country there WI treason
to believe that a company With such
a program would not make good"
The whole thing lay in their attempt
to make presentations for which they
were wholly inadequate, either in the
possession Of voice or the operate or
theatrical training. If they had not
put on operate excerpts in costume
but merely sung them, the concert
would have been more of success.
Both pianist and the violinist were
good musicians and did some excellent
technical work, but neither were of
concert calibre. The contralto had a
voice of good quality and sang a lyric
number effectively.
That the time is past when a set
of mediocre musicians living in New
York can band themselves together
under the magic word metropolitan, -
and impose themselves ON the sup
posedly unsuspecting .proyinqials, was
demonstrated in this Instance
The heaviest applause Of the even

by party of Earlham students who
were out for good time and applaud
ed with student abandon, impartially
and indiscriminately.t

FARMERS CONS|GN
LARGE SHIPMENTS
TO HOG MARKETS
Raise of Quarantine Signals
Rush of Fattened Stock to
Trading Centers of Entire
Country.
A, D, COB q.

-. ~ NOoo.
The predictions made early in the
week foretelling an enormous rash of
hogs to the markets Immediately fol-
lowing the lifting of the foot and
mouth disease quarantine. have been
more than justified. For weeks the
hogs have been ready and the farm
ers have been awaiting the opening
Of the eastern markets to move them
The Indianapolis market, the only
point available to the Indiana shippers
during the quarantine, handled an
enormous number of hogs, but the
price could not hold under the strain
of the heavy receipts, without the
outlet usually offered by the eastern
order buyers, and the majority of To-
cal farmers felt that they could not
afford to sacrifice the hogs at the low
prices, especially since many of them
bought their feeders on the top mark
ct of August and early September.
Rush Hogs to Market.
Therefore, at the opening of the
quarantine, the country was literally
full OF hogs, and all this week they
have been rushing them to the mark
cts. On Monday Chicago received
$1,000 hogs, Indianapolis $500 and
Pittsburg none. On Tuesday the re
port was: Chicago $4,000, Pit,sburg
12O, and Indianapolis $1,000, and so it
has been all week, with the Pittsburg
market receiving more stuff each day
The prices have ruled steady in most
Eases, although a slight raise on
Wednesday was followed by a decline
yesterday. 1t is thought that the
eastern market will begin to show
more life next week. when the order
men begin to move their cOnsignments
from Chicago and indianapolis.
All records have been broken at the
local stock yards this week and when
the last car goes out tonight, there
will have been several thousand hogs
handled by the Gaar-Shurley firm.
The Glen Miller people have pre-
dicted all week that there would be
decline in prices toward the end of
the week and at the beginning of
next week and the prophecy bids fair
to be realized. For this reason they
have been conservative in their bids
Int have still kept within their guar
guteed margin of Pittsburg prices.
They have easily handled all hogs Of
tered them at their quotations.
