And by her masterful playing alone—tor she came here practically unknown and certainly unheralded—she won a public that will hereafter be peculiarly hers.” But expectation of a fine concert rests by no means wholly on the appearance of Ruegger.

THE HAMBOURG AMPHION CONCERT. * Fortune, who Is fabled to place In the mouths of her favored ones at birth a golden spoon, did better than her custom by young Mark Hambourg, for she gave him a golden touch. This twenty-year-old Russian lad has been taught, of course, by one of the most famous of teachers, and the value of that teaching t» not to be underestimated. But as Intellectual vigor, richness of Imagination, fervor of temperament and musical touch are birthrights. If the pianist have them at all. Mr. Hambourg owes more thanks to nature than to Leschetltskl. The dosen numbers that he played, last night, at the concert ot the Amphlon Club, gave a tetter chance to gauge his powers than might have been ex pected outside a recital, for they had been so chosen as to display many sides of hfs art. The list Included Beethoven, Bach, Rubinstein, Tschaikowskl, Les chetttski, Hambourg and Chopin. In the first number, the Bach prelude and fugue in A minor, eVen in the first half-dozen bars, he established hlmseit unmistakably to hfo audience as one of the artistic elect. TLe exquisitely-gradu-ated run and the silver trill were technical evidence sufficient: the perfect clearness of the pattern traced by the different fugue voices was sufficient evt-

donee of his intellectual power. Indeed, this clearness, the result of a musical Insight so marvelous as to seem divination —and of s clean, firm touch, marked everything he did, making the Beethoven sonata, for example, sound as child’s play In Us superb simplicity. It was In the severer, the stormier pieces, such as the Bach, the Beethoven and the Liszt numbers, that he excelled. The Beethoven sonata, the Appasslonata, was splendid. There was both modesty and decision In the manner In which the first subject was announced, and In its worklmr out there was revealed a broad and noble style and a gain of fresh beauty and meaning with each repetition: the adagio lacked somewhat in tenderness, but the final allegro was a stupendous achievement, and the last note of the coda was the signal for overwhelming applause. The smaller pieces had each a fiery message in them. The slam-bang Liszt rhapsody—the second of the twelve—was the only number on the program unworthy the player. But charged with personal magnetism by this young Russian as was every bar. It was intensely interesting. Here was felt the sheer personal force of the artist. As a technical display, the rhapsody was electrifying. A prince of the blood royal of Rubinstein—that seems to be Mr. Hambourg’s artistic connection, it Is this kinship that compensates for the lack of any strongly apparent relationship to Paderewski. Jcseffy and De Pachmann, those gentler poets of the piano. For Mr. Hambourg playing Chopin is not the equal of Hambourg playing Beethoven and Liszt. There is too much intellect and not enough heart In his Chopin. The mascullno side of Chopin's genius—the side most often ignored—he emphasizes to the infringement of Its more delicate feminine side. He has, to be sure, a beautiful pianissimo—not so exaggerated as that which has earned for Joseffy the title of the “pianissimlst," but lovely, nevertheless, and he has, perhaps, all the appreciation of Chopin that a hearty, healthy boy can have. But while he can not yet bring to It the depth of tenderness and feeling that are demanded for fullest interpretation, his Chopin playing has many’ beauties. The B flat minor sonata showed-most of them. The heavy chords that open the march had a pall-Uke quality In their muffled depths, while the hopeful phrases in the middle of the movement In D flat major were of limpid purity. The G flat Chopin study was noteworthy, also, if simply for the lightning rapidity with which Its final double descending octaves were sounded. As extra numbers he played the familiar Chopin cradle song, and, being recalled at the end of the concert by applause that would not be denied, the Liszt transscrlption of the Mendelssohn “Midsummer Night's Dream” music. The club’s share In the program was fully held up. "The Moonrise” of Johannes Pache, which was the first number, Is persuasively melodious, and the club sang it well. “The Summer Night,” by Alfred E. Little, and the “War Song,” by Theodor Bjoerksten, were pleasant numbers, but were not of the quality of the Salnt-Saens “Saltarelle” 'that followed them. This Is one of the most charming choruses that the club has ever given, and Its difficulties of capricious tempi make Its selection all the more praiseworthy. These tempi were managed easily, however, under the skillful direction of Mr. Pierce, and there was throughout the number so much spirit and so bright a tone that it was enthusiastically applauded. The Welsh folk-song by Weinwurm Was anqther number of special merit; It was most effective In Its rude strength and simplicity. Mr. Tolchert played remarkably good accompaniments for all the choral numbers save the "Summer Night" and the “War Song,” which were sung without the aid of the piano. In the “Spring” song, the tenors did some particularly good leading work. Indeed, the individual excellence of the voices composing the club was manifest In every number in a superb tone-qual-ity. There was clear enunciation, too, and right phrasing. < The audience was. In numbers and character, one of the finest that has ever been seen at an Indianapolis concert. Altogether, the Amphion Club Is to be congratulated.

SALSIFY FRITTERS. By Mary J. Lincoln. [Copyrighted, 1899, by Walter B. Guild.] Wash, trim and scrape a bunch of salsify, cut It Into uniform lengths about two inches. Cook It In boiling water, slightly salted and acidulated, and when tender, drain and put it In a bowl. Season with salt, pepper and lemon juice and let it ’stand an hour.

Put one pint of sifted flour Into a bowl, make a hollow In the center and pour In two tableepoons (full measure) of melted butter, add one-fourth teaspoon of salt and water enough to make a thick, smooth batter. Mix the liquid in carefully and beat It well. Then let It stand at least an hour, longer will not harm It. When ready to use add the stiffly beaten white of two eggs, mix well, and use it for dipping salsify and other vegetables. Hashed Carrots. Wash and scrub two or three large carrots, put them Into boiling salted water and cook till quite tender. Put Into cold water, peel off the skin and trim the .ends.

Nansen Expects Only the Recovery of His Body. New York, March 7.—A dispatch to the Herald from Berlin says; Herr Fridtjof Nansen has been Interview here by a correspondent of the Lokal Anxelger. He Is passing through Berlin on his way to Breslau. He said that he would leave Christiania on May 15, In order to carry out his hydrological studies around Iceland for the Nor> wegian government. A specially constructed vessel has been ordered for this voyage. It will be similar to the Fram, but smaller. The expedition will return in the autumn. In reply to the question. “Do you Intend to proceed to the Arctic regions again?" Herr Nansen said that he had certain plans In view, which, for the present, he preferred to keep secret. As to Andree, Herr Nansen said: “I believed as long as possible in his return, making the most liberal allowance of time for his reappearance, but I no longer have any hope. “I do not believe that he Is living; otherwise we should certainly have heard of him. All that can be looked for now Is the recovery of his body.’" Doubtful Compliment. [Chicago News.] Hostess—Oh, Mr. Bo rum. I’m so glad you have come.” Borum (flattered)—Are you really?

Sharp Criticism of His Vote on th* Puerto Rican Bill, but Time Too Short for Organization. [Staff Correspondence Indianapolis News.] Richmond, Ind.«i March 7.—Congressman James F. Watson, of Rushvllle, arrived here early to-day, and has been In consultation with the leaders of the Republican party In the Sixth district. Had his vote been recorded In favor of the Puerto Rican bill three weeks ago, there Is no telling what might have happened to him In the congressional nominating convention, to-morrow. He had to listen to considerable sharp criticism, and he was busy explaining. The dissatisfaction la not over by any means, but there has not been time for any organized opposition. It was reported a day or two ago, that Wayne county would spring the name of Richard A. Jackson, of this city, In the convention, but Mr. Jackson would not allow It. If Wayne county should make a break—and there Is abo’ut one chance In a thousand that it will— Jt would be all up with Mr. Watson, for there are a number of Republicans here who are very sore at him. However, It Is probable that he will be nominated. The convention will be called to order at 10 o’clock to-morrow morning, and Mr. Watson then will make his statement. He will speak at the opera-house tonight also, and It is expected that he will say something of the vote that has started the buzzing about his ears, but the real genuine blown-ln-the-bottle explanation Is expected to-morrow morning. At the convention the apportionment of delegates Is as follows: Fayette county, 10; Franklin county, 7; Henry county, 18; Hancock county, 10; Rush county, 15; Shelby county, 14; Union county, 5; Wayne county, 27. Total number of delegates, 106; necessary to nominate, 53. At 11 o’clock to-morrow morning, provided the convention has finished Its work, the Lincoln League of the Sixth congressional district will meet to elect a district secretary and treasurer and a president for each county in the district. There is considerable friendly rivalry for the positions, but no excitement is expected. The district convention will meet at 2 o’clock In the afternoon, to select two delegates, and two alternate delegates to the national Republican convention at Philadelphia, and one elector and one alternate elector for the Sixth district. Nearly all the candidates for State officers are here. Wayne county Is one of the banner Republican counties of the State, and for that reason the candidates like to mingle with the delegates. This county will have twenty-seven delegates to the State convention. The popular sentlment here Is for Griffiths for Governor, but Durbin and Posey are both strong. Newby lives in this district, and will get the district about In Its entirety. An effort has been made to get him into two or three deals, but he has kept out of them all, and the eighteen delegates from his home county—Henry—will be divided between the candidates for Governor. The Republicans of Richmond have made elaborate preparations for the meetings to-night and to-morraw. W. H. BLODGETT.

FRICTION IN MANILA FLEET.

Th* Navy Department Has Not Approved All of Watson’s Acts. New York, March 7.—A special to the Herald from Washington says: It Is said that there has been some friction between Rear-Admiral Watson and officers of his fleet. Commander E. D. Taussig was summarily detached from the command of the Bennington and ordered home for alleged criticism of the commander-in-chief, though It is said that Commander Taussig was not Insubordinate. There has also been friction between the rear-admiral and th* Bureau of Navigation relative to his chief of staff. Rear-Admiral Watson several months ago desired Commander C. C. Cornwall to act as his chief of staff, and assigned him to the duty, but the department disapproved his action. Only recently the department ordered Cant. Charles M. Thomas to command the Brooklyn. Rear-Admiral Watson transferred Capt. James M. Forsythe from the Baltimore to the Brooklyn, and, it is said, gave an explanation as to his action in compliance with a request made by the department. The bachelor officers of the fleet have also complained because the married ofcers, whose wives were tn Manila, were allowed to remain on shore without procuring permission from the comraander-in-chief one or two nights each week, while the order of the rear-admiral required the younger unmarried men to be on their ships after 7 or 8 o’clock at night. Rear-Admiral Watson’s health was such that he was temporarily rellevea from command several months ago, though the fact was not made public. The Baltimore will probably return home under the command of Capt. G. F. F, Wilde, who now commands the Oregon, and who has been two years on the Asiatic station. Rear-Admiral Remey, the successor to Rear-Admiral Watson, was selected by the department because of his wellknown ability, and particularly because of his work at Key West during the war with Spain. Rear-Admiral Remey applied some months ago for the command of the Asiatic station, so that the orders Just issued will meet with his wishes.

PLACED WITH RUSSIAN FIRMS.

Contracts for Equipment of TransSiberian Railroad. New York, March 7.—According to the statements of a man representing the Russian government, who has Just returned from a visit to St. Petersourg, American manufacturers must not look to the immediate receipt of any large contracts for equipment and material for the Trans-Siberian railroad. He says: “Prince Hllkoff, the Russian minister of ways and communications, and M. DeWitte, the finance minister, are entirely opposed at the moment to sending heavy contracts out of the country. This decision has been arrived at in view of the fact that several of the large Russian manufactur-

Report on Financial Measure Passed in the Senate. Washington, D. C.. March 7.—Little Interest was manifested in the Senate yesterday In the final vote on the conference report on the financial blit. The report was before the Senate for nearly two weeks, yet only four si>eeches were delivered upon It, Including Mr. Aldrich’s explanation of the changes made In the Senate bill by the conferrees. The conference report was agreed to by a vote of 44 to 26, the report thus having a majority of 18. The detailed vote Is as follows: Yeas—Aldrich, Allison, Baker, Bard, Beveridge, Burrows, Carter, Clark (of Wyoming), Cullom, Davis, Depew, Elkins, Fairbanks, Foraker, Foster, Frye, Gallinger, Gear, Hale. Hanna. Hansbrough, Hawley, Hoar, Lindsay, Lodge, McBride, McComas, McCumber, McMillan, Mason, Nelson, Penrose, Perkins, Platt (of Connecticut), Platt (of New York). Proctor, Quarles. Ross, Scott. Shoup, Simon, Thurston, Wellington, Nays—Allen, Bacon, Bate, Butler, Chandler, Chilton, Clark (Mont.), Clay, Cockrell, Culberson, Harris, Hettfeld, Jones (Ark.), Jones (Nev.), Kenney, McLaurin, Martin, Morgan, Pettigrew, Pettus, Rawlins, Sullivan, Talltaferro, Teller, Tillman, Turner—26. Mr. Allen, of Nebraska, addressing the Senate on the financial bill, said he did not suppose It would be denied that the adoption of the gold standard was a gross violation of the Republican policy as enunciated In the Republican platform of 1896, nor would It be denied, he thought, that the Republican party had made no honest effort to bring about bimetallism. Mr Aldrich, chairman of the finance committee, said: “I will Interject into the Senator’s remarks, with his permission, a denial of every statement he has made, and the probability is that at the conclusion of his speech I can enter the same denial.” Later on, when Mr. Allen declared th© bill required the payment of all debts, public and private. In gold coin. Senator Aldrich entered a straight denial, and did the same thing when Mr. Allen asserted that It conferred unlimited power for the Issuance of bonds. Mr. Aldrich asked Mr. Butler If he and his party still favored free coinage of silver at the ratio of 16 to 1, and Mr. Butler not answering directly, Mr. Aldrich charged that the Populist party had abandoned free coinage of silver. Mr. Butler protested against this version ot his remarks.

SOVEREIGN REMEDIES

An Worth Thtir Weight in Mi

When the historian has completed his story of Nineteenth Century Progress —when he has told that it has been an unparalleled era of discovery—he will unquestionably give to Sovereign Remedies a foremost place among the agencies which have been most potent in the alleviation of human suffering and d tress. Prejudice, distrust and jealousy have ever sought to bar the advance science and the progress of discovery, but common sense and the philosophy < personal comfort, health, safety and reason have finally opened the door to worthy achievement, and the human family has enjoyed and profited through their beneficent

influence.

Sovereign Remedies are Here to Cure the Sick, te Drive Out Pain, to Build Up the Weak and to lake the Strong Stronger. In their preparation the united skill of the foremost of European and American physicians was made use of, and as they are offered to-day in their perfected form, they

stand as

A BULWARK AGAINST DISEASE, And a never-failing reliance in times of sickness and physical troubles or pain. Sovereign Remedies will cure all curable diseases, and it is frequently found in their use that the family physician has erred in his opinion as to what diseases can be cured and what can not, by giving permanent relief and restored health to those who have been pro-

nounced incurable.

Sovereign Remedies Are Not Mysterious, 'for do we claim that they are beyond the knowledge or professional ability of the best physicians. Quite the contrary; the educated physician can take any of the Sovereign Remedies, and by analysis learn what they are made of. After that there is nothing to prevent him from prescribing the same for his patients, and the result from a health standpoint would be identically the same. The patient would be cured at the cost of a professional fee of more or less, while • as Cent Bottle of a Sovereign Remedy

would have accomplished the same purpose.

'A man that’s fondpreco. ciously of stirring must he a spoon.” -Hood.

QT at all, Mr. Hood. If there is anything the average man or woman likes todoitis

barrel of fun.
