Something Definite Will Be Decided Upon Tlii* Afternoon. The directors of the Carnival associa tion will meet this afternoon at 4 o'clock to decide whether an ice palace shall be built or whether the carnival proceedings shall be carried out without the great central feature. Sentiment on the board is somewhat divided, and at present there are indications that the ice palace plan ■will'go' by default without a protest. Many of the members of the Carnival as stociation are of the opinion that without an ice nalace-the carnival will be a minor attraction. In case the directors take adverse ac tion, the plans will be amended to the extent that nothing more than a pro gTamme of winter sports will be carried out. Rinks will be built and the city illu minated. There is a strong sentiment in favor of building an ice wall in case weather conditions make an Ice palace impossible and constructing an enclo sure, inside which special attractions can be developed.

PAUL GLOBE, SATURDAY, JANUARY 13, lOOU. USED SONG AND STORY MUSIC OF THE EI.D HAPPILY DIS CUSSED BY MR. LOUIS C. ELSON SECOND LECTURE OF SERIES Tlie Mnale of Germany, France and Austria Traced From the Thir teenth Century Down to tn# Days of tlie Great Classical Mn«ters— Ancient Singers and Their Songs —Lniher'a Maaloal Productions. Song and story were happily blended by Mr. Louts C. Elson at the People's church last evening In his second mu sical lecture. The old songs were ex ploited as well as the new, and In Mr. Elson the music of the Eld has an en thusiastic champion and artistic inter preter. Although the audience was small It was evidently cultured and warmly appreciative. Practically there were six numbers on ! the programme, but each one was rep- j resentatlve of widely varying epochs. ! The mutic of Germany, France, Austria and Italy whs traced from the thirteenth century down ro the days of the great classical masters, Beethoven, Mozart, j Bach and others. No one knew, said \ Mr. E-son, the origin of folk songs. But j from these seeds, planted as early, per- j haps, as the third century, had evolved j the grand symphonies of Mozart. The I greatest and most masterful composers j had never hesitated to avail themselves j of the. musical love of folk songs. First had come the ancient minne sing ers, antedating the epoch of the reforma- ' tion many years. These had been fol lowed In Spain and France by the trou badors, and In Germany by the Meister, or.anglicized,master of singers. The trou badors, while singing of love, politics, war and patriotism, had invariably ele vated the theme of womanhood to a high altitude. At times their themes, how ever, were o trifle grotesque. One of them, freely translated, bore upon the j question, "Can a man love though mar ried?" Then, in German, there had come a ' higher musical cult, and the minne sing- j ers first, the Meister singers afterwards, j voiced the theme of woman in the ab stract, besides treating of love and war. But while at times they dare not sing of politics, they braved many dangers and the gleeful minne singers have told of facts not related in history. These songs i were quaint yet beautiful. Mr. Elson i Illustrated this by two numbers, accom- j panying himself on the piano, an old ! minne song composed In 1287 and another ; In 1300. The latter personified a cru- I sader, a brave knight, who sang with j marked expression of the glory of Ger- j many and woman's love. The minne singers had, at distant in- j tervals, competed with each other for i prizes. With the advent of the Meister ' singers these competitions had become j more frequent. And then these ancient j melodies had been preserved and we ! now find them reproduced in Tann- j hauser. The third act is brightened and j idealized by musical phrases of woman hood original with the minne singers. Here Mr. Elson gave "The Evening \ Star," from Tannhauser, as illustrative i of the truth of his explanation. One j jf the ancient minne singers had stepped Sown from the heights of melody to in- j struct women on the subject of etiquette, j He had advised ladies of the aristocracy { to cultivate sewing, cookery, surgery | md chess. In those days knights were j frequently wounded far away from a j surgeon. It then became the duty of a I woman to minister to the disabled I knight until the arrival of a doctor. Chess Tias recommended on account of the well known hospitality of the times, j with the desire to entertain the coming is well as speed the parting guest. It was understood that Martin Luther had introduced choral, or congregational singing. This was not true. It began as far back as the third century in tho Catholic church. Here Mr. Elson gave the fourth number, an old Catholic carol of the fourteenth century, composed on the subject of the "Blnck Death." Tt was true that Luther loved music a net had written "Dl Musica," but he was not the author of the many selections at tributed to him. Hymnologists had taken Luther"s name in vain, for they had claimed that as Luther had taken certain j street songs, catches and carols, and j adapted them to church music, they had j a. right to adopt church music to secular words, claiming that they were but trans posing Luther's example. It was true that Luther had made the mu^lc of street ditties bend to t«ie service of religion. One stanza Mr. Elson quoted: "My heart Is sore dismayed, My mind has gone astray, All for the love of a pretty maid I chanced to meet one day." Mr. Elson said that in Luther's time the melody was not In the soprano, that Is, !t did not carry the air. It was in the tenor. The alto in those days was termed a high part. Now It is the lowest, or deepest female voice. But alto means high, in the original Italian, and it was given Its name because at that time tha alto parts were sung by male voiced and as between male and female voices there is a wide range of compass. One of the songs of the days of Luthei was "A Strong Castle Is Our Lord. 1' The same melody will be found in one of Bach's cantatas. Perhaps it might sur prise some people to know that the great Beethoven was the author of a comic song. Yet It was true, and Mr. Elson reproduced It wltii all the breezy swing and cadence of a number from an opera bouffe. From the early folk songs ot J Germany it was a far cry to the present | German mannichor societies of exclusive j male voices. Yet they were evolved from the minne singers. For the mannechor societies Franz Abt, though some might speak lightly of him, had done much in the way of composing their songs. "We find much good music In Austria in which country many classical gems have been produced. There was a kinship of song as well as of habit. No matter whul might be the language of the words, the music of those people engaged in the same lines of business was similar. Among sailors of different nationalities Mr. Elson had found this true. The- Chinese sailor, the least tuneful of any. chanted a weird scng, the burden of which was danger, as did the Danish, German, or English sailor. And so thers was a kinship of melody found in the music of highlanders in various countries, among the peasants and the working classes of different cities. Mr. Elson touched humorously upon the music of the German students, the duel ling blades of Heidelberg. They sang of everything, at study, at work, at play and in their drinking bouts. He gave a German drinking song composed to a favorite punch. "Now the melody of that very song," said Mr. Elson, "is now found carrying the words of an American kindergarten roundelay. Imagine a German student coming into the presence of these little tots singing the music of his favorite carousing song. He might imagine that Americans were a rather rapid people." Mr. Elson closed with "Koerner," a I "Song of the Sword," composed by Car* men on the day of his death in battl«, figliting bravely against the French, and a Corinthian song. Thus he had traced the history of music from its early dawn, fro mthe medieval period, through the middle ages and down to the present high state of classical music. Mr. Elscn's third lecture will be de livered Monday night, his subject being "The National Music of America." • • • The following women belonging to the Minnesota committee of the George Washington Memorial association met yesterday with .the state chairman, Mrs. Ansel Oppenhelm, at the Aberdeen: Mrs. Cass Gilbert, Mrs. Maurice Auerbach, Mrs. William Graves, Mrs. Will Hixon, of Mankato; Mrs. Judson Wade Bishop, Miss Kate Chittenden, Mis 3 Sophia Greve, Mrs. J.

Heart Failure Caused by the Se ductive Cup. "I have been a great coffee drinker for several years. For a long time I thought I could not eat without coffee. "Have been troubled with my stomach, nerves and heart. The worse I felt, the less I ate, and the more coffee I drank. "I have taken may different kinds of medicines, but could not secure any lasting benefit Up to eight, weeks ago I had but few well days in the preceding two years. I could not do ordinary housework, except with great care, be cause of heart failure. "I met a friend who said she could not drink coffee because it affected her heart | bo. I thought perhaps coffee m'g-ht be | the cause of most of my troubles, and so I quit the use of it about eight weeks ago I and took up Postum Food Coffee. I have I not taken any medicine, and I have gain ed so fast that it 4s a surprise to my friends as well as to myself.

TO HATCH MORE FISH EXTENSIVE IMPROVEMENTS BEING MADE AT THE WIIXOW BROOK HATCHERY SADDLES OF VEMSON SEIZED Box of "Household Goodi" Captured at the Depot Yesterday That Aroused the Suspicion of the Game Wardens—It Was Found to Contain Ttto Saddles of Ven ison. At a meeting of the state game and flsh commission Executive Agent Buet ner was yesterday authorized t/> com plete a number of Improvements at the state flsh hatchery at Willow Brook. The commission contemplates a very large distribution of fry this year, and the improvements will Be made to provide a capacity for an increased demand for trout fry, coming from those sections of the state where trout streams are lo cated. A new trough will be built, from the hatchery back 1,100 feet to a fine new fresh water spring that has been dis covered on one of the hills just back of the hatchery. The water is free from iron, so disastrous in the breeding of young fish, and will give the hatchery a largely increased flow of water. Any number of springs have been located about the fish hatchery, but with little exception they are impregnated with iron. Last year the commission broke all records In the distribution of young trout, and this year there Is every promise that the commission -will be called upon for an increased number of the trout va riety. The commission has already hatched out 200,000 young trout, and has fully 3,000,000 egsrs in the Jars undergoing the hatching process. The several thou sand breeding fish have not all been stripped of their eggs, and when the en tire crop has been secured the commis sion will have in the neighborhood of 6,000,000 young trout for distribution. When the hatching process was com menced Supt. Morgan estimated that ful ly 75 per cent of the eggs would be hatched, but today the percentage has laigely exceeded that figure. A new rocm has been fitted up with troughs for the young fish right after they are hatched. The Improvement jglves the hatchery a largely increased capacity. The hatching department has a «apacity of many miilion more than the trout now at the hatchery. In the spring when the pike spawn is secured the total har vest foots up 50,000,000 or 60,000,000. The commission will commence its dis tribution of trout as early in the spring as possible. The young fry are taken to the head of trout streams and placed in the cold spring water, after they have become accustomed to the cold water by a gradual process at the hatchery. As the season wears away and the main body of the stream gets warm the bis fish run up stream, but by thl3 time the young fry are large enough to take care of themselves and find seclusion in the cracks of rocks and in vegetable matter. Last' year St. Louis county received the greatest share of trout fry; in fact, more than hag been allotted to that county for the last four years. Winona and the other counties were well pro vided for and no applications were left unfilled. Executive Agent Beutner yesterday re ported the seizure of two saddles of venison from one of the freight depots, packed in a box marked "Household Goods." The shipment was under sus picion, and Deputy Warden Meyerding removed the cover wifti an ax and found two saddles of venison. The game was cons'gned to F. L. Parshall, of St. Paul.
