Musical Progress.

Bosses musical progress reached a
high point Thursday evening when the
Saslavsky Trio bowed to an audience,
which, although lacking the outward
fervor and enthusiasm which warns
the soul of the artist, and which is
found wherever the Latin races form a
large percentage of the population,
was nevertheless a very appreciative
audience.
Mukle's sensitive nature felt the
GOODNESS very perceptibly at first Then,
when the chill gave way to a burst of
genuine applause, the world-famous
'cellist recovered. Saslavsky smiled
under his big moustache and De Noto
saw and felt nothing but his art. Yet
there was enough of seasoned wood
in the audience to vibrate rapturously
under the spell of the magic music as
the artists discovered after a time. 1t
is much to be able to listen to such
music in this far northwestern cor
ner of the union. Much to be cult
waited to degree where such music
speaks deeply and tenderlY to souls full
Of reverence for the divineness OF
melody.

Moonlight Motoring in the Mountains.

A trip. that to several of the party of
eleven who made it, was one of the
notable events of a lifetime, was the
stage auto ride from a point in the
mountains some Is miles above Low

was loaded to the limit, but there is
no safer driver than E. B. Chapman,
and those who had long hoped for
drive through the mountain wilderness
by moonlight had their desire. There
may not have been more than the
scribe and the instructor in express on
who hailed from New York city, who
found a positive fascination in the
race through the castlcd canyons, the
whipping across streams. and the
glimpse of weird shadows cast by
pines looming darkly to the sky. Some
of the others thought only of forgotten
overcoats and warm beds awaiting
them al home. For the night was I'M
deniably cold. But the brilliant moon
shone like a great crystal globe in the
sky and all the witchery OF silver
lances of light playing on mountain
and forest and flashing stream was as

of gnomes and fairies. of naiads and
satyrs. Earlier in the journey, before
the sunbeams had quite faded away

tiful foliage.

dark. close shadows of the mountains
and forests drew about the party a
sudden light appeared which rapidly
resolved itself into a campfire around
which circle of Indians blanketed and
with wild war whoops danced n terri
flying Indian war dance. Closer inspec-
| ton revealed a number of we'll known
society people of Boise, masquerading
as braves and squaWs. Every sleeping
camp was reused as the party sped on
