MUSIC
The professional league, an organi
zation ;• made up of St. Paul music
teachers, was organized primarily for
the purpose of creating an esprit dv
corps among those whose work was the
same and whose aims, therefore, it was
reasonably argued, must of necessity
be somewhat similar. Four years ago
when Clarence Eddy, the Chicago or
ganist,. had retired to one of the par
lors of the People's church after pre
senting an unusually • fine programme
on the organ of that church, Mr. Ober-
Hoffer rushed into the room where the
organist sat resting and in the excit
able German fashion, literally fell on
Mr. Eddy's neck while he expressed
eloquently the pleasure he had enjoy
ed while listening to the organist play.
That was one musician's tribute to an
other, esprit dv corps, if you please.
But though the Professional league has
existed now for three years and though
the purpose of its organization was
undoubtedly a most sincere one, no one
has yet beheld the spectacle of one
St. Paul musician •falling on another's
neck in his endeavor to express pleas
ure over the music he has heard. Of
course all proofs of the existence of an
esprit dv corps need not be dramatic.
A quieter evidence of such a spirit and
one that probably would be more ap
preciated by the musician toward
whom it was shown would be a liberal
patronage of those recitals and con
certs that are given by home talent.
Unfortunately home talent too often
implies mediocrity, but here in St.
Paul it does not necessarily imply any
thing of the sort. The city has per
haps five musicians who are capable
of presenting musical programmes that
compare favorably with those that
have been given here by out-of-town
artists. But let one of those musi
cians arrange to give a recital, let
him work faithfully on the programme
he is to present and let the truth of the
announcement that he has something
worth while to offer be acknowledged,
what is the result? His audience will
be meager and those who attend will
be his personal friends and not his
fellow workers. Because such apathy
exists one cannot, of course, attribute
failure to the Professional league.
Doubtless in time, if it remains an or
ganized body, one m&V view the happy
spectacle of local musicians hastening
to lend the encouragement of their
presence and the greater encourage
ment of their price of admission to
some struggling local artist. Only one
regrets . that the league's leaven leav
eneth so slowly.

Although the concert tomorrow night
will open the auditorium of the Peo
ple's church, the pipe organ will not be
in place in the church. , Indeed,- it has
not been shipped. It will probably be
a month before the organ is placed in
the church. \ • :.

cian's are included in a volume of se

Fisher, and "Musical Culture Within

Mile, de Lussan's recital tomorrow eve
ning promises to be a notable affair, not
. only because of the singer, who occupies an
important position in the musical world,
but because her recital will formally open
the new auditorium of the People's church.
But- de Lussan herself needs no outsi.de
attraction to render her recital a satis
factory one. . She possesses a « mezzo so
prano voice of great power and sweet
ness, her enunciation is clear and distinct
and she. is in perfect control of her vocal
organs. Moreover, Mile, de Lussan is the
possessor of a most attractive personality.
Angclo Fronani, hf-r accompanist, is said
to be a fine soloist also. He v/ill play
two numbers tomorrow evening. The pro
gramme follows:
(a) "On the Wing* of Song"—
Mendelssohn
<]>> "\>-i A«ra" Rubenstein
(c) "May Morning" Denza
(a) "ConaJa tv lo Pays," "Mignon"—
A. Thomas
<b) "Btyrlennc." "Mignon"..A. Thomas

PRIESTS WILL PREACH
TO NON-CATHOLICS
Paulist Fathers to Conduct Missionary
of Explanation to Persons Outside ■
the Church.
Rev. B. Li. Conway and Rev. J. B.
Harney, two Paulist priests, will be
gin a series of lectures at St. Luke's
church, Victoria street and Portland
avenue, commencing Jan. 12.
The lectures are to be exclusively
for non-Catholics and their friends.
Members of the Catholic churches are
placed upon their honor not to at
tend unless accompanied by a non-
Catholic friend.
In speaking of the lectures one of the
Paulist fathers said: "The object of
these lectures is to tear aside the veil
of prejudice and misconception which
prevents non-Catholics from seeing the
church as she really is. Most of her
enemies are not opposed to her, but to
something which they think she is—a
nightmare specter of their own creat
ing, which vanishes at the approach
of light. Too many know the Catholic
church only at second hand; too many
have heard her teachings explained by
those who know her not, and yet hated
her. This is not reasonable. You do
not find out the principle or the rea
son of the Spanish-American war from
an enemy of our country."
Lectures delivered by these priests
at usual high masses at the church
during their stay in St. Paul will be
for both Catholics and non- Catholics.
At the evening lectures question boxes
are provided Into which seekers for
information many put interrogatories
concerning the church of which they
are ignorant.
Why He Kicked.
"I don't see why Shoddyman is kicking
so about the way the firemen deluged his
factory with water. They got the fire
out all right before it did much dam
age."
"Yes, but the water ruined his stock."
"What does he manufacture?"
"Umbrellas." — Cincinnati Commercia'
Tribune.
