THE GOURIBR. 9 - ' MUSICAL MENTION, John Randolph. On February JOth, the fourth Phil harmonic concert of tho presont season will be given at The Oliver under the able baton, of Mr. Hagenow. I wish to call especial attention to thip concert because it is of jnteret, to the student of classical form. The program is to bo devoted to music of a higher order than tht larger part of the la6t concert; and among other selections the great E flat symphony of Mozart will ba given in its entirety. In studying the Bonata form, no more pure and definite instance, can be found than this symphony; tho thedes follow ono aunther with admir able clearness, and their beauty and freshneEs are worthy of the composer of "Don Giovanni." Tho symphony con sists of the foul u.ovementa of the re gular classical form and contains a charming "Mlfauot" as its third move ment. Mr. Hagenow has secured as soloist, Mr. Holmes Cowper, the well known lyric tenor of Chicago, who mado 6o decided a success here last season. He will sing among other numbers the great "Adelaide" solo of Beethoven. Al together the concert promises to be a very successful one and it is hoped thut a larger audience will bo presont. GbUBS. Continued from page 5. "Hard-Times." The coarse brutality of Squeers was offset by the loving sympa thy of the dear old schoolmaster who sheltered Little Nell. Or. Blimber and Mr, Creakle, each in bis way a nerfect type of wrong methods of dealing with children, were more than counterbalanc ed by Dr, Strong. There is no page in any language that treats of more funda mental educational principles than the page describing Dr. 8trong's school. In "Hard Times" the dwarfing of Louisa and-Tom Gradgrind by their father's false.educational ideal was brought into perfect relief by the unfolding of wisdom and. sweetness in Sissy Jupo, who was uot robbed of a real childhood. Squeers' school was described to arouse the indignation of the public against badly managed private schools, conducted by ignorant, sordid, brutal men who "traded in the avarice, indif ference, or imbecility of parents and the helplessness of children." .... He had a wider aim, however, than the over throw of an evi) system of private schools. He caught the spirit of Henry Barnard and Horace Mann, and was one of tho first Englishmen to. see the ad vantages of a national system of educa tion, and the urgent need of well-trained teachers by whom young minds might be guided in the first stages of their growth. The publication of "Nicholas Nickle by'' freed England from the low claes of private, schools, aroused a widespread interest in national education and the better training of teachers, and helped to reveal the fundemental principle of true discipline in home or school, that all coercion is dwarfing in its effect on character-growth. There are many teachers and parents who still need to learn that even the most refined methods of coercion cripple the individuality of the child and prevent the development of its tifue selfhood, the divinity of its nature. For them "Nicholas Nickleby'' is one of the best of all books. They should read it once a year. - The Midland Monthly, which ia pub lished by Conway & Shaw at Des Moines, Iowa., has been purchased by Meesrs, John L. Settle and H.M.
