ROYAL BAND TO PLAY TOMORROW CREATORE AND HIS MUSICIANS AT THE AUDITOBTDM. 'The Genius of Things Harmonic" Has Arranged an Attractive Program for the First ConcertThe Seats, Which Are Selling at Popular Prices, Are Going Rapidly. CREATORE James Montague In Ne York Journal. Creatore! Creatore! there's a fury in your form That can lash the tamest music to a shrill and shrieking storm: To every order telegraphed from that hypnotic eye Reverberating kettledrums respectfully i eply, While swaying like a wind-swept reed your body cleaves the air, Inciting boom, and clash, and crash and bray, and blow, and blare. You frown upon the oboe and It grievous ly makes moan. Tou draw from the euphonium a grum bling undertone You throw a double duck fit, just as it jou liked the work, To get results from yonder where the queer tympani lurk Meanwhile the evolutions that you set yourself to do Resemble macaroni while the same Is In the stew. Old Patsy Gllmore, bless him, was a leader who could show Contortionists and gymnasts things they really ought to know, While our own John Philip Sousa, with his short but gifted arms. And his limber neck, possesses many captivating charms But as spectacles, we own it, neither one of them would do For an instant in competing with a whalebone man like you. Blessings on you, Creatore if we all could work like that W would nbt get results that seem trifling, tame and flat Could we but hurl ourselves at what is given us to do And keep that whirlwind lick up till we get completely thru, We'd make a noise perhaps ourselves to echo thru the land And get as much good out of life as you do from that band. The much-talked-of Creatore and his wonderful band of Italian musicians will appear at the Auditorium for their first concert tomorrow night. Judging from the seat sale, Minneapolis is to give this great leader and hie band a most enthusiastic reception at the new Auditorium. After a siege of grand opera and other heavy musical events, the royal Italian band is a welcome vis itor. Minneapolis' new music temple is admirably fitted for band music and as this is the first real popular-priced opening of the big building there is every reason to believe that every seat will be taken. The evening prices range from 25 cents to $1 and the matinee tickets are 25 cents and 50 cents. The programs for the three conceits will be great favorites with Minneap olitans. The following is the program for the opening concert tomorrow night March, ''Tannhauser" Oveiture, "Mignon" INTERMISSION. O^gan offertory Batiste Sextet from "Lucia" Donizetti Soloa by Slgnor Tommastno, Sementa, C..ta- lano, Plccirillo. Iaflsco and Glove. Harp solo, "Tema con Variazlone"... .Thomas Signor O. feodero Orelture, "Tannhauser*' Wtgner In the course of an overture Crea tore, "the genius of things harmonic," is seen gesticulating in the most as tonishing manner Every fiber of his being in motion and with his long hair flying madly about his head, while he is wringing from his players a veritable musical cyclone then at other times he appears hovering, wizard-like, over them, and calling forth the tenderest musical effects. The Creatore perform ance will be all that is expected of it and it will be one of the chief musical events of the season. GOV'T DAM DAMAGED Flooring of the Lock Torn Out By the Swift Current. A attempt to wash out a sandbar which had formed against the face of one of the locks in the government dam at Meeker island in the Mississippi river was attended with disastrous re sults, the rush of water ripping up the flooring and doing damage to the amount of $20,000. For some time the sa"n'd has been banking against the face of the lock and as there was no dredge at hand, Captain Powell, the engineer in charge, ordered the gates opened on Tuesday afternoon, hoping that the cur rent thru the lock would wash away the bar. This was don'e and the bar and flooring were washed out together. The completion of the dam will thus be delayed until about June 10. "VENIREMAN" WAS WOMAN Mistake Chagrins Officers of Ramsey County Court. Eugenie L. Sigler was summoned to act as a juror in the Eamsey county dis trict court. There was no appearance and a bench warrant was issued. The deputy sheriff returned to report that the non-appearing ."juror was a woman and the wife of Dr. *L. Sigler of St. Paul. She was promptly excused. NEW STOEE ON NICOLLET "Ellencoe" Company Will Open Their New Store Saturday Morning. "Ellencoe" Clothiers have outgrown the store they have occupied during the past year on Fourth street" S, and will open Saturday at 304 Nicollet, formerly occupied by the Northwestern Coal company. The new store -will have new fixtures throughout and will be a valu able addition to Nicollet avenue.

The scheme of management for the new state capitol has been referred to a committee consisting of Commission ers George Toit, Edgar Weaver and E E Corliss, who will report April 17. The committee will then recommend the positions to be created and the sal aries to be paid out of the $60,000 al lowed each year for maintenance. There are many candidates in sight, and the inside track for superintend ent of the building ig believed to be held by E. D. Claggett of Princeton, serjeant-at-arms of the house. I is likely that there will also be Ian assist ant superintendent, chief engineer and superintendent of construction. The secretary of the commission, Frank E Hanson," will be retained in his present capacity. Plans were presented to the commissioners for walks and roadways, and bids for the work will be adver tised. The commission made awards for four paintings to be hung in the gov ernor's reception room, each to cost $6,000. This will make six paintings for the room, as, besides the Father Hennepin picture, just hung, Mil let is completing one illustrating the signing of the treaty of Traverse des Sioux. The new paintings ordered are as follows: "First Minnesota Eegiment at Get tysburg," kEufus w,.a|Sne8 T1i?SJB "Lola lu Bal" GiHer Grand selection, "Damnation of Faust" Berlloa (a) Prelude, recitative and Hasto? hymn.

WOULD USE OLD CAPITOL State Historical Society to Discuss Plan Monday Evening. The proposed use of the old state capitol in St. Paul as permanent quar ters for the State Historical society will be discussed at a meeting of the society to be held Monday evening. Members of the society who are oe hind the proposition claim that the so ciety would have much more room in the old building, and with changing part of the old structure so as to make it fireproof, the society could not have a better home. The plan includes using the old senate and house chambers for general offices of the society, the for mer executive offices for a portrait gal lery, and the offices formerly used by the auditor for an antropological muse um. The entire basement could be de voted to the newspaper department. See Stockwell SoonThat life insur- anceThe Penn Mutual. Andrus bldg. i III N. WWAT'L LIFE IS APPROVED L. W. Collins, President Northwestern National Life insurance Company: At the close of the recent examination made of your company by S. H. Wolfe, in which was used as a basis the annual statement filed with this department as of Dec. 31,1904,1 made a report to the governor of this state on March 20, 1005, in which I used the following language: 'My judgment is that the financial condition of the Northwestern Na- tional Life Insurance company at this time is such that by a strictly honest I and economical management of its affairs the actual rights of all of its policy-holders, under each particular contract, can be secured." I have now before me a statement dated April d, 1905.' An examination of this statement and a further consideration of the affairs of the company have confirmed me in the views expressed by me as above quoted. My judgment is that the company is now solvent, and the personnel of the presi- dent and directors recently elected is such that honest and economical man- agement is assured. The agents and employees of the company should understand that this department has not taken charge of the company, and the change in the officers and directors in no way affects its existence or authority, and they should, therefore, make their remittances to the company promptly in the usual manner.T.

The officers will serve without salary. I is also desired to secure an attorney for the club to probe false charges for damages. Sirong efforts will be made during the summer to improve the country roads, especially University avenue. To accomplish this a closer affiliation will be entered into with the St. Paul club. The first club run will be held April 14, when the trip to St. Paul will be made. The members will be the guests of the St. Paul club. THE "WHITE DISASTER' Dr. Toyokichi Iyenaga to Discuss the Japanese Fear. The cry of "yellow peril" has be come familiar to thousands who have never heard the term "white disaster," but this is a peril that the yellow race fears to even a greater degree than that of ours of the "yellow peril." To them the "white disaster" is some thing that has takeW hold upon their country and threatens yet greater ad vances. Japan has taken steps to con trol its advance and while accepting much that it brings, she still holds in tact her hereditary 'national spirit and life. The Chinese have more cause to dread the "white disaster" and hate the European than the Japanese. The white man has made greater encroach ments upon Chinese soil and has forced greater concession from his govern ment. The Chinese think these were unjust. Dr. Iyenaga 's lectures give a fair pre sentation of the conditions in tnl far east, and advocate the "open BOWERY BURLESQUERS NEXT.
