TALKS OF LANGUAGE OF MUSIC
Mrs. Wllllaaa "nearer. Crosby Ad
dresses the Measbera ef the
Wosaaa'a Clab.
Drawing on the "wealth of Wagner's
"Rheingold." Mrs; William Spencer Crosby
sought te interpret and make underatand-
ble tbe language of music to the large
number of members of the Woman's club
and their friends, gathered in the First
Congregational church yesterday evening.
Mrs. Crosby preceded the Wagner recital
by a abort sketch of the history of music.
She told of the earliest beginnings of mu
sical knowledge, when the tons vibrations
and Harmonies first began to be noticed,
and traced ita growth through tbe middle
agea by tha chant a of the monasteries
and the folk songs of tbe peasants, te the
time of the development of the fugue and
the sonata.
'Music is the language of emotion," she
aaid. "Wagner believed thrt the emotions
could be conveyed much better by tone
than by word, and he had the Idea that a
certain tone conveyed the emotion in
tended; thus, fearsh, discordant notes ex
pressed anger and harmonious chords, Joy.
It seemed to this master that scenes and
words and music must ail express the same
thing."
Mrs. Crosby went through the opera, in
terrupting her playing frequently to tell
its story and explain how wonderfully the
music expressed tonally the sense of the
book. Ebe pointed out the constant re
currence of the music of the various char
acters, following their varying fortunes,
sow sweetly, again in minors or discordantly.
This evening Mrs. Crosb will continue
her illustration in the "Wsulkure," which
in s second part of the "Rbelagold."

There was s frolic of tbe folliea st tbe
Ak-Sar-Bcn den last night the politer
follies, either Elks themselves or the In
vited friends of Elka. Three or four hun
dred were on tbe floor and more than 1.000
others looked on from the amphitheater
tl.ove. It was tbe masquerade ball and
annual entertainment of Omaha lodge No.
and while it may not have bees as
highly remunerative lor tbe order as some
previous entertainments,, it was rich in its
reward for those who attended.
To begin with, tbe historic old ball room
was a fesst of electrical beauty, with a
great chime clock at ita front, as elk
mounted there among greena and another
elk surmounting a small knoll of foliage
In tbe center of the room; with smllax and
other vines trailed about all the pillars;
with the fraternity's purple and white
looped from arch to arch; with the amphi
theater draped with Elka' bunting, a white
cloth figured with elka' beada and clocks
showing the approach of the eleventh hour.
with elk heada on banners everywhere, and
with the stage a profusion of green,
iwsrllag the Prises.
On this stage aat thirty-five instru
mentalists with FTof. Dimmlck as their
conductor. Their melody timed the feet
of the hundreds of dancers in costumes
gay or somber, beautiful or ridiruloua, ac
cording to the whim of the wearer. Tbe
whtms were many and the Judges commis
sioned to select the best of tbe number
spent many anxious Ininutes deciding.
When they did decide, H. C. Richmond an
nounced for them that among the women

won Erst prize; Mrs. R. W. Dunn as a
Chinese grand dame second prlxe; Miss

third, and W. G. Colling aa a toreador
fourth. Tbe women received aa their prizes
dainty cut glass pieces and the men um
brellas, boxes of cigars and other such
necessaries of life.
Among those seriously considered by the
judges were Stanhope Fleming ss Silly

Miss Belle Knowlton as tbe Ghost and
the Folly; Berchle Dunn as Happy Hooli

Osealsg af the Ball.
The ball opened at 8:45 with a party
dance by three dozen young pupils from
Prof. W. E. Chambers' academy, who ex
ecuted difficult figures with an esse snd 1
grace that surprised and" delighted the older
folk. At 1:16 followed the grand march,1
participated in by all the costumed mas- :
queraders snd several who were merely'
masked. .
From it there was developed the ever
changing minuet, danced by twelve couples
of young people, all in powdered hair and
the rich robing of the court of King Henry
VIIL
At ita conclusion those on the floor were
wooed into the delights of the first waits
and the fun began. Swashbucklers In fancy
tighta and gorgeous hats danced with quaint
little Japa; Topsy in sackcloth and charcoal
danced with a man of quality in a swell
dress suit; ths girl in tbe black dress with
the silvery constellation thereon danced
with a man who never sighted a telescope in
his whole life; Spanish girls danced with
Americanos who never got nearer Spain
than a cigarette store; American belles
danced with foreign beaux in fnct. every
body In every kind of garb danced with
everybody else in every other kind of
garb, snd kept it up, through various
dances, until 10:45, when the names of the
winning competitors were announced and
all bidden to unmask. Exalted Ruler Frank
Crawford. Just to show that he was a sure
enough good fellow, wors tour different
costumes st various times and didn't win
a prise. Most of the other officers were
busy with the management of ths affair and
either could not mask at all or could wear
only the false face necessary to galj space
on the dancing floor. At the atroke of 11
all rose snd gars the Elks' salute to the
hour.

WASHINGTON. Feb. SI. All day thers
has been talk Of compromise on the state
hood bill.
It was generally understood that what
was known as tbe compromise bill would
be ' satisfactory to the republicans.
The democrats, while talking in a con
ciliatory spirit, aaid they had little hope
that tbe republican proposition would be
acceptable to them. It is quite likely that
when thia proposition la submitted, the
demorrate will have a conference.
Probably a counter proposition then will
be made providing that when Arizona has
a population which is the average for a
representative in congress, It shall be ad
mitted as a state and also that a census
shall be taken every year. Tbe democrats
ssy they want a provision fixing ths date
which will bring Alisons into ate union.
This would not be satisfsctory to the re
publicans. While efforts fer a compromise
continue, there are only a few senators
who expect sn adjustment to be reached.
and the prospects of statehood leglala
tlon are still remote.
There waa an earnest conference in the
senate chamber after the adjournment.
participated in by Senators Aldricb, Quay,
Hanna. Foraker, McComaa, Beverldge and
Keen, when it waa definitely decided that
propositions for a compromise on two
etatee should be submitted to the demo
crats.
Senator Quay presented a memorandum
of the Improvement features of the com
promise to Senator Bate, wbo will pre
sent It st a conference of democrats called
for 10 o'clock tomorrow. It Is expected
the republican proposition will be rejected
snd a counter proposition made.
Democratic leaders say they cannot ac
cept the compromise suggested snd the
republicans say that no further concea
ions will be made.
Cartel? la After Cask.
A scheme for the organization of tbe
new Department of Commerce and Labor
has been laid before congress by Secretary
Cortelyou, in the estimate transmitted to
that body today through the secretary of
the treasury.
In addition to twelve branches of tbe
public service transferred to the new de
pertinent from other departmenfs which
have been appropriated for Secretary Cor
telyou asks for appropriations tor salaries
aggregating 65,60. The salaries sre for
the secretary's office, the bureaus of cor
porstlons and manufacturers and subordi
nate divisions as follows:
Secretary's office, twenty salaries, (SR.-
000; under the chief clerk, seventy-one
salaries, 161,500; appointment division.
twenty sslariea, 126, 01S; division of malls
and tiles, twenty-one salaries, f 21,300; di
vision of stationery, nine salaries, S12.140;
library, seven salaries, J8.S40; office of
solicitor, eleven salaries, (19,100; bureau
of transportation, 116 salaries, $150,000; tor
compensation of special examiners in tbe
field, 1296, 60; bureau of manufacture, 1
twenty-one salaries, $30,980; in connection
with the new duties imposed on the bureau
of statistics. $5,670. 4 . .t , , ,
Secrets Cortelyou says provision
should be made for the payment of sal
ariea for the remainder or tbe current
fiscal year for such officers and employes
as qualify before July 1, 1903, but he says
that ths bureaus of corporations and man
ufactures probably, will not be perfected
until some time during the next fiscal year,
so be concludes that $660,690 will be suf
ficient for the remainder of thia and the
next year.
In addition to the salaries are estimates
of $50,000 for rent. $150,000 for contingent
expenses. $150,000 for traveling expenses
of examiners; $600,000 for printing snd
binding. Including $250,000 for the census
office.
In his recommendation for a building for
his department Secretary Cortelyou urges
that tbe future growth of the department
be considered.
He says:
It should be planned in advance as to
be not inferior in convenience or beauty
to the structures which commercial nd
financial houses at the great centers of
Americas trade are erecting for the trans
action of their dally business.
He states it should have at least one hall
suitable for conferences, international or
national, and dwells on the present insde
quacy of the present department buildings.
He asks tor $7,600,000 for tbe building, ex
elusive of the site.

Ject of coal transportation, reported to

The report reviews the conditions found
but on the question as to whether any
understanding between tbe coal roads and

expressed no opinion. Owing to the fsct
that the session ts so near an end the sub

CONSTANTINOPLE. Feb. 2. Tewftk
Pssha, tha minister of foreign affairs, noti
fied the Hungarian and Russian ambassa
dors today that the sultan bad agreed to
adopt the scheme for reforms In Mace
donia. CONSTANTINOPLE, Feb. 23. Tbe iden
tical note on the subject of reforms in
Macedonia, presented to the grand viiier
Baturday by the Austrian and Russian am
bassadors, was translated Into Turkish and
handed to the sultan the same evening.
Ths powers recommend, in addition to
the appointment of an Inspector general of
gendarmerie for three years, with ample
powers to act independently snd to requisi
tion troops In case of emergency and tbe
reorganization of tbe gendarmerie and po
lice under European instructors, that
Christians be admitted into the gendar
merie in numbers proportionate to the
population, without being required to read
and write the Turkish language.
Amneety is also demanded for all persons
who have been arrested for political of
fenses. The scheme for administration and finan
cial reforms In Macedonia as proposed by
the powers, besides planning a more equit
able adjustment of taxes, provldea that
local expenses shall be a first charge on
the revenuea of each vilayet. In the event
of there being a surplus It may be sent ts
Constantinople.
Measures sra also demanded for com
pelling ths Albanians to respect the lawa.
Tbe power which it is proposed to give
to the Inspector general of gendarmerie,
whose appointment or recall and successor
must be confirmed by tbe powers, thus
virtually detaching him from tbe direct
control of the authorities at Constanti
nople is slmost aure to encounter oppoal
tlon from tbe Turklah government.
Tbe latter also will most likely object to
the propoaed financial arrange menta. and
to the basis on which it is planned to re
cruit tbe gendarmerie, which, were tha
suggestions of the powers carried out, would
in several districts be practically entirely
composed of Christians cwnlng to their
predominance In certain parts of Macedonia-It
la understood, however, that the pow.
era are determined te sdmit of no modi
fication of the reform scheme, and demand
ita application without delay and that they
are prepared to adopt coercive measures
ta Insure ita being scrupulously carried out.
