reading portion will be delivered by a wo-

public. Nearly all the singing societies in
Chicago are rehearsing the lyrical stanzas.
TheodoreThomas will have charge of the
• orchestral part of the programme and W.
L. Tomlins, of Chicago, will direct the
.chorus.
The.ode is allegorical and begins with a
'description of Columbia welcoming the na-
:thins of the earth to witness the climax of
!' [her greatness as represented in the complet-
-eel Fair buildings. The birth of Columbus
.and the enterprise of Isabella are told in the
lines beginning :
• "Until a woman fair
• As morning lilies are,
Brings him a jewelled key,
And lo: a world is free."
The voyage of Coluiebus is described in a
,charming lyric beginning:
"Over the Wide unknown."
''.This is one efehe paittiefig diekte-ter
.and 'is A:low in `r'elle-aiisal. The words -are
sung as far as the line,
• "And the purpose of God fulfilled."
Columbus and Columbia moot:
"She who had dwelt in forests,"
• ''Of hair unbound and strong limbs bare and brown.
Columbia is deified:
"So Goddess -pure is she.
The goddess bids man to shake off his
• -chains and build anew temples in her do-
main. "Knights who had warred at love's
ominancl" take up the axe and oar, mallet
• and spade.
The Indian wars and early struggles are
•mext pictured, ending with a stirring chant,
.beginning
-- "tee-elan:on-elan • --
'The embattled nations gather to be one,
Clasp hands as brothers 'neath Columbia',
shield."
This is set to music, and ends with the
• line, "And love shall be supreme."

° bute to the deceased architect, John W.
Root. Then comes a shadowy cavalcade of
heroes moving through the World's Fair
temples, led by "One who held a warring
nation in his heart." The heroes of the
.' Republic, led by Lincoln are in the van.
Cmlumbia is apostrophized, and the develop-
• .-ment of man beneath her sway told in
splendid verse. The ode concludes with a
lyric, beginning:
"Columbia, a inan beheld thee rise,
• A goddess from the misty sea."

taken by soprano in a lovely cantabile to an
arpeggio underscore in which the harp will

This portion is set to music and sung to
the last line, "Now onward be thy ways."
TEE MUSIC.
' The music is characterized by scholarly
simplicity in structural lines and embellish-
ed with the reserve due the dignity of the
occasion for which it was designed. A cer-
tain stateliness pervades the work, which is
softened at intervals by airs of great purity
and freedom, but there is no dropping at
any moment from academie standard. Like
the ode, it is elevated and ideal; it contains
no "catches,"and is not at all likely to be
.ung around the street corners. But many
.of its numbers will be eagerly adopted by
-choral societies, and much of the figuring
and coloring of the score will render it
peculiarly adaptable to chamber and sym-
phony concerts. There are beautiful solos
scattered through it, but all these are
dexterously interwoven in the fabric
of the poem and made essential to
the musical interpretation of its sen-
timent. After a prelude for orchestra

The chorus repeats the theme a third
lower in C. major, and the progress of the
thought evolves a fugue that will bring
the voice parts into superb danition and
afford a great audience an example of musi-
cal writing of native spirit and magnificent
color.
A Mother's Love.
No matter how times may change, and
we by force of circumstances are compelled
to change with them, there is one sentiment
that stands firm and _true through all the
ages a bright point of light amid the shift-
ing blackness of earth's sweet trials—a
mother's love. It matters not thet baby-
hood has long since been left behind, it
means no diminution in the protecting ten-
derness in that mother heart that we have
passed the age where physical health is
• eldest emguide our tottering infant feet,
dry our childish tears, and sympathize
with our little sorrows, we do not change
to her. Life's greater and fuller troubles
that roll like overwhelming billows up-
on the struggling man or woman are
still to the dear, faithful heart the wor-
ries of her baby boy or girl. The mother
never realizes that the years have
changed her little one into a strong,
helpful adult. She knows they need her,
and she it is of all the world that can
comfort as no other comforter, and counse,
as no other adviser. She reads the heartl
the world judges the actions. She feels
where others may condemn. She, in a
word, is "Mother," and what more can he
said? The day will come when those tired
hands are folded, never more to toil for the
child of her heart, when those looming eyes
are closed, never more to open in glad sur-
prise at the coming of one most dear, and
the world will go on, but never quite the
same to the one who has laid away in
the grave that dear one who understood

sob cues, little or no loci' notice, hut out

proMises to be miserly seized upoh. It was
brought to the attention of Maj. -Gen. Her-
bert, the commander of the Canadian mili-
tia, and the cuttiug tools made by Allard
were submitted to his inspection and to that
of engineers named by him. All of the ex-
- aminera expressed their surprise at the
wonderful edge and herdness that had
been attained. It was at the General's
suggestion, made,with an eye to the possi-
bility of the diedovery's being utilized for
the smile/ring of British war vessels,
thet the inventor prepared a sheet of his
hardened copper, If of a line in thickness,
to be tested under •the direction of the
Lords of the Admiralty. Private reports
from England state that the experiments in
the royal dockyards have proved eminently
successful, 'though nothing official upon the
subject has yet been communicated to
Allard. At a preliminary trial of similar
sheets at the Canadian rifle ranges, the
bullet, fired from a dietance of forty yards,
was shattered into a thousand fragments by
its first impact with the hardened copper.
On the second trial, the missile, striking
the plate more fairly, was completely flat-
tened, but remained imbedded in the plate,
which it merely dented slightly, without
cracking it in any way. Allard's friends
declare that all the testa so far made have
proved most satisfactory, and that the in-
ventor, among other things, has made by
his process a copper razor equal in edge and
temper to the best article of the famous
Rodgers manufacture.
The story of how Allard came to redis-
cover the art, which was known to the
ancients and especially to the old pyramid -
builders of Egypt, reads like a romance.
Thirty-three years ago, when working at
his trade in the United States, he heard a
comrade in the same shop say that the man
who could rediscover the lost secret of tem-
pering copper would make a fortune. Ever
afterward this saying haunted his mind,
and for over thirty years he sought the
secret in vain. He made thousands of ex-
periments which ended only in failure and
disappointment. A hundred times he
vowed that if the next trial failed he would
abandon the search, which was wasting his
_limited _means and proving ee_e_mingly a
veritable will-o'-theewisp for him. At last
be fully decided to make one more trial,
and if that failed to give the whole thing
up forever. A new combination had oc-
curred to his mind, and success crowned
his efforts.—New York Sun.

The Right to Say "Not at Home."
The right of a gentlewoman to say "not
at home" to visitors is alwaYs open to
illumination. To be sure, theoretically and
ethically its absolute propriety may have
been established, but the New York Adver-
tiser holds that is a different matter
altogether. Pretty nearly every woman of
a position sufficient to warrant the obser-
vance of form has discovered that, however
well barricaded she may be by ceremonious
servants, however importaM her engage-
ments, whether social, domestic or literary,
there is always some sweet inconsequent
soul ready to sweep them blithely away
with her self-assurance. True, the classifi-
cation of one's friends into the formal
caller and the informal caller is dif-
ficult of insinuation to them. But starting
with the hypothesis that even the dearest
and nearest are not acceptable at times, is
it, then reasonable that even the most sensi-
tive should take offence at a civil, "Madam
is excused to -day ?" And granting that it
is unreasonable, how many women have not
felt a sense et rebuff, a faint, uncomfortable
questioning at receiving this message a
number of times at. the same house? Yet
consider the demands and emergencies
which come up in daily life to warrant such
an excuse. But just because it is so fre-
quently accepted in a spirit not intended
the simple word of "not at home" seems
best. While not the strictest truth to the
letter, it is certainly truer in intention,
leaving as it does no chance for personal
application and no sting.
Hunting Tigers In India.
The only two methods of tiger -hunting
that are practical really here are "netting,"
and sitting up all night in a tree by a
"kill" waiting for the tiger to return for his
food. Almost all sportsmen have tried this
latter, and generally been disappointed, as
I was in another part of India, and have al-
ways solemnly vowed that each occasion
should be their very last, only to be found
at it again on the very next opportunity.
Some really like this solitary Watching, but
it has very many drawbacks to its enjoy.
ments Several Indian sportsmen, ,who have
killed their forty or fifty tigers, have told
Inc they had been nearly always unsuccess-
ful with it. It is very wearisome work sit-
ting from about four o'clock in the after-
noon until daybreak next day, always on
the alert to see something that does not
come; and with the darkness mosquitoes
come in quantities, and perhaps a scorpion
will ferret you out, or, worse than all, you
may be visited by the red ant. It is very
uncertain when a tiger will return to the
"kill." He may do so as early as three or
four in the afternoon, or just before day-
break, or not at all, often being frightened
away, perhaps by some unforeseen circum-
stance. The slightest rustle will make him
stop, and once his suspicions are aroused, he
will not venture near. To shoot him on foot
by- stalking issanimpagisibiiity. Thwe1iorti3-:
men will occasionally come upon a tiger when
after other game, and may then have a
chance of a shot. If there are a few men
who keep together, a tiger, even if wound-
ed, will think twice before charging into the
middle of them, and will always shirk the
, last ten or fiften feet. None but the most
4 -foolhardy or utterly, ignoranewould, venture
to follow a wounded tiger into long grass or
very close cover, where it has every advan-
tage, and the hunter may be seized before
he has time to raise his rifle. One of the
tiger's greatest aids in his attacks is his
voice, the sudden coughing roar of which is
paralyzing to the coolest, and of course for
a certain shot the nerves must be perfectly
steady, with "no flinching."—Harper's
Magazine.
Plant for a Modern Newspaper.
"I am a member of a syndicate that is

New York," remarked Staley. "We have
all our plans completed and it's bound to be

ough.
"We haven't any editor and don't want

If quarantine is a suecopieful method of
prevention by communities end by conti-
Inuits, as it halo been proved to be over and
over again, the same method is applicable
(to a great degree) to personal prevention of
the disease when it has invaded a commu-
nity. Cholera isnot communicated directly
from one person to another, even under oir-
cumstancee of the greatest intimacy ; yet it
is spread only by patients afflicted with the
disease. By means of one infected person
in whom the disease has manifested itself
by only an apparently insignificant
diarrhoea, cholera can be conveyed to a
whole locality. This person may
travel without •further development of
the disorder, but he may leave behind him
matter which may rise to the most deadly
epidemic. It is thus no longer inexplicable
how the cholera in ite wanderings takes no
defined course, but spreads indifferently,
now from west to east, now from east to
west; now with the wind and now against
it; in cold weather am in warm weather;
how it always follows the routes of travel;
how it does not go from place to place in a
ehorter time than is required for men to
travel the same distance, and how, eince
the building of railways, it has been able to
spread more quickly than before. Some-
times it has made great leaps. In the local-
ities 'hilted by the disease, the houses and
streets in which those infected reside are of
course the places of the greatest danger. It
has happened that a single house or street
has for a long time Veen the only infected
locality. But while those buildings or
neighborhoods first visited by the cholera
are being depopulated, the infection
sooner or later is easily communicated to
other houses and streets, partly by means
of common priviee and partly by other
ways, surely by water if by any means the
water supply has been affected.—October

IT MAY BE INTERESTING TO KNOW
That when excursion rates are made to
Chicago for people who live in the East,
to enable them to attend the World's Fair
next year, it is contemplated by the West-
ern roads to also make excursion rates from
Chicago to all principal business and tour-
ist points in the West, Northwest and
Southwest, so that those who desire to
epend a few weeks among their i:riends in
the Great West, may have an opportunity
of so doing without incurring much addi-
tional expense. It may be well to consider
this subject in advance of actual time of
starting, and the Chicago, Milwaukee &

Loaned by the Vatican.
The exhibition to be opened in honor of
Christopher Columbus at Madrid has just
received two of the most interesting ex-
hibits, and the lender has been the Vati-
can. They are geographical maps of very
early date, and of extreme rarity. One drawn
in the lifetime of Alexander VI. shows
the chart of the world as it was believed
to exist at the commencement of the six-
teenth century. A line, the drawing of
which is traditionally ascribed to Alexander
himself defines the limits of the Spanish
possessions in America, and separates them
from those of Portugal. The second map
—less ancient than the first—has a great-
er historical value, as the precise date is
not left to conjecture. An inscription in
Spanish announce that it is the handiwork
of the cosmographer of the King of Spain,
who prepared it by command of the king
at Seville in the year 1529, and under it is
the rather naive announcement, not that it
is a. map of the world, but a map of so
much of the world as had been discovered
up to that date. These documenta are the
more interesting as their provenance and
pedigree are above all doubt. They come
from the famous museum originally found-
ed by Cardinal Borgia when he was Perfect
of the Propoganda. No European institu-
tion is so rich in ethnographic treasures,
which have poured into it from all parts of
the Christian world in answer to eloquent
and pressing appeals.
