"Lost Chord" Dear to
Heart of Composer

Arthur Sullivan sketched out the
complete setting of "The Lost
ChOrd'' while he sat by the death
bed of his brother, Frederic. 1t
was his last composition for many
months. The song, when published,
swept the world, and the inevitable
penalty of popularity followed-it
was parOdied, to Sullivan's disgust.
He wrote to the parOdist:
81 wrote The Lost Chord in sOr-
row at my brother Fred's death.
Don't burlesque it,
Sullivan gave one of his manu-
script copies of "The Lost Chord
those scrubbed notes that hal
come from the depth of his suffer-
ing-tO his lifelong friend, Mrs.
Ronalds, a famous American hostess
living in London. She was very
gifted amateur singer and Sullivan
openly said that she alone brought
tears to his eyes with his own
notes. Mrs. Ronalds' rendition of
"The Lost Chord" was famous.
King Edward-then prince of Wales
once remarked that he would
travel the length of his future king
dom to hear Mrs. ROnalGs sing

business way. It was not until
w. O. P. Hilsdale, w. S. Dean,
Mel Billed, A. H. Petit, jacob
Brothers, Willis How, G. Hillerud,
and a few of the t'later ones" es-
tablished themselves here that pub
licity was deemed essential to bus
mess. Even then, in the fall of
the year, and at Christmastide,
when every farmer had his pockets
full Of money and you couldn't
have kept the crowds out of the
stores with a machine gun, mer-
chants would crowd the paper with
big type ads, filling large space,
but when business was dull and
needed stimulating they were con-
spicuously out of evidence, but let
fake bankrupt stock or fire sale
come to town, even in mid-sum-
mer, and advertise literally, as
was frequently the case, local
merchants would stand by with
their hands in their pockets and
see their customers dig up coolies
of cash and go home loaded down
with goods-but enough of this
lecturing.
"The policy of the Herald under
my management differed little from
other country papers; it aimed, pri-
marily, to be loyal to home inter-
ests and 1 think l can justly say
it was leader in many move
ments for civic improvements. 1t
strongly advocated the water
works, bonds for an enlarged school
building, and against pretty stiff
opposition in certain quarters,
pushed sidewalk extension; was
largely responsible for the extern
sion of Third street eastward
across the river and westward to
Hoboken, of Main street southwark
over the railroad tracks to the city
limits, and that was fight to the
finish. 1t fought the stock-yards
from the residence part of the city,
stood stiffly for the City Hall and
new library buildings. 1t helped
in the two railway schemes, the
l.. F. & D., and the "Katy"
branch, and after strenuous fight
lost out in the Duluth, Huron and
Denver and the $500" extension
from Paynesvile up through Spring
Hill and Metre Grove. The Her.
aid fought hard for county divis-
ion, which might have been &C
complished if the $500" branch had
been built; advocated the location

management. 1t was a seven col
umn folio-four pages-with pat
ent outsides, printed in Milwaukee
and carrying much more patent
medicine advertising than local,
was printed on an old-fashioned
hadn press.
''It was soon changed to an all
home print and a little later an
other column was added to each
page. Two years later it was NOV
ed to Pendergast Hall and after
wards to a building located on
Third street, which l purchased
from VIM. Scherffius and fitted
up for joint newspaper and Post
Office purposes.
Gin the early nineties small
cylinder press, worked by hand
power, was purchased and the
paper changed to a six column
quarto-S pages. Afterwards a
larger press was purchased and a
gasoline engine bought to furnish
the motive power. This briefly
sketches the physical history of
the Herald from 1879 to 1908,
while under my ownership.
"When 1 began the publication
Of the Herald in 1879, Sank Gen.
ire as I remember it had about
$50 people; two Touring mills, not
more than a half mile of
wooden sidewalk, three brick
buildings, including the tiny Of
flee of Esquire Carr, and its mer-
camille business was about evenly
divided between Main and Third
streets. There was but the one
line of railroad with two daily
trains none on Sunday, no water
works or electric lights, no street
lights of any kind, no telephones,
no park, small steamboat on the
lake which shortly afterwards went
out of commission, four churches,
one rather small school house and
but one small grain elevator.
"There were, including stores,
general and hardware, drug stores,
millinery, blacksmith and carpen-
ter shops, and all kinds of profess
sional men, about 80 bushes
places and offices and of this num-
Der not more than half-a dozen
took advertising space. 1t was a
modest galaxy that would blush
to see their names in print, even in

my career in Sank Centre was
not eventful in any marked de-
gree. I made many friends, warm
friends, most of whom have gone
on before. My attachment of the
little city which I saw emerge
from swaddling clothes into knick-
erbockers is deep-seated and sin
cere. There I buried my parents;
there were my children born, and
there I spent my life's meridian.
"No wonder it appeals to my af-
fectionate remembrance so strong
ly, beyond all question it is, in
many respects, the best city of its
class in Minnesota.
"Joy to it and it's every resi-
dent, May you all live long and
prosper

number of the prominent early set

they would welcome or lynch us, at

us at the time. However, we were
so favorably impressed that we
concluded to throw in with them.

Faust, the masterpiece film show ing at the Liberty theatre tonight is woven around pr. Johann Faust, or Faustus, a famous magician, about whose name and existance so many obscure legends have grown, lived in the beginning of the 18th century, and was probably born at Knittlingen, in Suabia. After receiving his education at Wittenberg he studied medicine, astrology, and magic, and occupied himself in alchemical experiments. Faust was a man of great scientific requirements; and according to 1e- gendary tradition, he made use of his powers, to inspire his countrymen with a firm belife that he had deal inigs with the devil The story of Dr. Faustus furnished the subject of remarkable dramatic poem by Chris topher Marlowe, and has been immor- taliized by the genius of Goethe.
