suggestive of wordly things than the soft

against the walls of the Ingoon an.l the

Into glow and the music Inspired the mind
with the most elevating and sincere erno-

surroundings were as much In keeping with
the spirit of the day as the subdued lights
that tall through stained windows and the
peal of the organ that echoes among the

The effect was evIdent In the people who

ahiniber was received. Tue playing of the
band was all that the most pessimistic critic
could ask and the nudieiicc manifested its
enjoyment of the excellent program by frequent -
quent Bud vigorous applause.
The Iirst number on the program was

A most appreciative audience of the concerts -
certs sat through the program at the Auditorium -
torium yesterday afternoon , The first num-
bet seemed to strike a chord of cordial feel.
lag , and the sympathy of the audience in.
creased as the concert advanced , intense
interest being displayed at all times , and
the applause being frequent and warm.
The orchestra felt the influence of the mood
of the audience anti the playing of each
number was excellent. Cards upon which
was printed in large typo a request that
the audience remain seated and quIet dur-
lag the performance or a number were displayed -
played at prominent poInts and these aervel
to nartlally stop the annoyance. A small
percentage of the audience drifted in and
out during the afternoon , but the great majority -
jority came to enjoy the concert and there
was far less annoyance than usual from
this source.
Those who remained throughout the concert -
cert Were richly rewarded , the concert , all
things considered , being one of the most
successful which has been given by this
most excellent organization , The house
was comfodably filled , the audience corn-
prialng all grades of society and nil show-
lag the greatest appreciation of the music.
The program commenced with a double
nurnler , a "Chorale , " by Bach , flfll ( "Mcdi-
tation , " by Iiach.Gouood , These selections
seemed to tickle the fancy of the audience ,
and the next number , a suite of three iium-
bers by Massenet , was warmly received.
The last of the uito was a 'cello solo by
l3runo Steindel , afll this was applauded both
loud and long. Mr. Stelnilel's playing was
exceptionally fine , and the audience was In
thorough sympathy with him ,
A harp solo by Mr. Shuecker carried the
hoU8e by storm. lie played one of lila own
compositions In the artistic manner which
has earned for him a national reputation ,
In tile next number Mr. Schuecker displayed
a versatility which demonstrated his ability
as a composer as vell as an artist. The
number was Liszt's Rhapsody No. 2 , which
is usually played with a more or less coin-
plicated cadenza for the harp. When the
music for this number was being laid out
ycsterlay morning it was discovered that
this cadenza was missing , and an incident
which occurred vlieti the selection was last
played Ia Chicago was recalled , showIng
that the lien ) vnrt had been purloined ,
Director Mees and Librarian McNicoll were
at their wits' end ; the program had been
Printed and the number must be played ,
but It was conceded that it would never
(10 to omit the cadenza. In this dilemma
Mr. Schuecker came to the rescue. lie
seIzed Some music paper and forthwith
composed a cadenza , committed it to niem-
ory and played it during the concert as
though the composition and playing of
cadenzas was an every day affair , The
Liszt rhapsody ts a beautiful composition ,
and the very artistic manner in which it
was rendered by the orchestra called forth
the most enthusiastic applause on the part
of the entire audience.
ThG next number was a double one , a waltz
movement by V lkman and a ball scene ,
"Charlotte Corday , " by flenolt. The latter
lies been played before during the engagement -
mont of the orchestra and has become very
popular. A sextet composed of flute. dat-
met , horn. cornet , oboe and bassoon plays
behind the scenes with the strings in the
orchestra without olniig 'In at intervals.
It is a rather incongruous composition , but
seems to take the fancy of the people-nnd
it was applauded so vigorously that the orchestra -
chostra repeated it , much to the delight of
the audience.
A iolonaise , "Mignon , ' by Thomas , and
the "Itakoczy March , " by Liszt , completed
a program which afforded a ritIi treat to
those fortunate enough to remain throughout -
out the afternoon.

scrvcd lesson that the Spaniards had to
learn , but it has been shot into them so
energetically that they at last realize what
a mniatake they made when they tried to
drivc Lieutenant Colonel Huntington and his
bravo American marines into the sea. The
inca of war havc avenged the deaths of the
brave feliows who fell beneath the sudden
night ( lie of time treacherous and bloodthirsty -

no harm to the men on board tim ships ,
are returned by shells , which tire disastrous.

to Colonel Huntington's marines , . so time

Juno 19.-Today was an xeeptionahly beautiful -

It was significantly a day of rest among the
soldiers. All drills weru rnnitted , and the
Sabbath wnsgenerali' dbserved. In this respect -
spect the tiny was somewhat in contrast
with ninny ot its predecessors , Tbe chap-
lalmis of tile various regizuerits held m.ervics ,
amid the Young Men's Chthtian association
and evangelistic cohOrts' were activqly at
work. The reverence with which these services -
ices were listeimeil to , and' the general good
order which prevailed among the camps ,
wcro significatit of a high mom-al tone which
vorvndes the entire army.
TI.o soldiers \cero forbidden to congregate
at points of arnusernemit , anti lractically all
remained in camp , with the exception of a
considerable number who had permission to
spend the , iayomm Lookout mountain.
The efforts of General Doynton anti time
Georgia authorities to restore order at Lytle ,
and ri.l the outakirt of gambling houses , has
been lirodtmcttve of good results. This was
especially noticeable at Lytlc today when all
saloons and gambling houses were hermetically -
ally sealed , and no oltliers were allowed
timcro during the entire day ,
Recruits for rmiriotms reiments continued
to pour In from all directIons today , and by
night the number amrvng ! reached 600 , monk-
