NOTES OF ART
MUSIC
Madame Lillian Nordica will be in Richmond on April 19th. This is good newB indeed for the music lovers of Richmond and surrounding towns. For the name of Nordica is the assurance of all that is perfect in music ,The prima donna will give a recital
in the - Coliseum. Madame Nordica
stands at the head of lyric artists of today. For years she has been considered the best of living sopranos, and though a singer here and there has sprung into prominence, her course has been metoric and today Nordica is the accepted leader. For years Madame Nordica devoted all her attention to operatic singing, making the leading roles of Wagner her forte. Last year she left the stage, taking up recital work, and has made a tremendous success. - J jb ' J '- The trustees of the Paderewski Fund for American composers, Mesrs. E. J. Lang, G. W. Chadwick and Horatio Parker, make the announcement for the competition of 190ft. Three prizes are offered for the best composition submitted by American composers as follows : One thousand dollars for a symphony or symphonic poem for full orchestra. Five hundred dollars for a concert piece for chorus and orchestra, with or without solo voice parts. The term "American composers" is restricted to those born in the United States of America. The compositions offered for prizes are to be submitted on or before September 1.1900, and will be passed upon by the judges appointed by the trustees. . .. The compositions are to be sent anonymously and the name of the composer is to be contained in a sealed envelope, forwarded with the composition. . .,, ';-,,.. No composition shall be eligible for a prise which has been published or which has been performed in publis or private. The compositions sent will remain the property of the composers and will be returned to them at the end of the competion. if so requested by them. All communications in reference to the competition should be addresed to John A. Loud. Secretary, No. 6 Newbury street,, Boston, Mass. js jH jH A meeting of the Music Study club was held Wednesday of last week in the Starr Piano parlors. The program was arranged by Mrs. El rod and Mrs. Clarence Hadley. js je j Hans Kotscher played the Regio violin concerto at a recent symphony concert in Basle. Switzerland.

"Spanish art is one of the live and
moving forces of the present age in art. yet the average student knows
little of its force and importance. For
300 years men of genius in art have
been giving the world something of value from their studios in Spain, yet they have not been commonly known
nor their works familiar."
With this idea and statement as his theme, Ralph Clarkson," the w!t known and highly rated Chicago portrait painter, lectured entertainingly before an appreciative audience at the First Congregational church Friday evening. The . lecture was under the auspices of the Omaha Society of Fine Arts, more commonly known as the Art Club. A fine collection of stereopticon slides greatly enhance Mr. Clarkson's talk in interest and value, the pictures shown being examples of the best work of the various masters of Spain. Covering the periods of Spanish art from the last of the sixteenth century to the present day, Mr. Clarkson narrated with striking distinctness the characteristics of each period and told in an attractive way of the contribution of each to the present art of
the country.' His lecture was one of the most didactic and yet entertaining illustrated addresses delivered in
Omaha this season and tvas most suc
cessful in point of attendance, and interest manifested. - Mr. Clarkson will deliver a lecture in this city Monday evening in the Pythian temple. The public is cord
ially invited. Mr. Clarkson is being
brought here by Miss Anna Newman.
FRED CARPENTER
IS VERY POPULAR AT T CAPITAL
Taft's Secretary Has Easy
Way of Making Friends, Something v Loeb Sought For, But Did Not Find.
ROBERT 0. BAILEY IS
A VERY CLOSE RIVAL
Taft Is First Fisherman-Pres
ident Since Cleveland, and Various Angling Clubs Are
After Him.
FOR WOMAN'S EYE
A set of crystal in a bracket fitted with all1 necessary cups and things to contain the necessaries for a good cocktail is the new thing for the dining room. " The shades of raspberry and rose
are popular for the spring millinery. A new thing for a library table centerpiece is a small oriental rug. ChiUess brass beds with 2Va inch posts are the most up to date. Satin finish wools are among the new and favored materials. Diagonal wale is one of the new materials for tailored suits. The new parasols are all made with long, slim handles. "
Silk crepes are used much for the dressier gowns. -
Washington, March 20. Fred Car
penter, - President Taft's secretary, promises to - enjoy greater personal
popularity than. fell to the lot of Mr. Loeb. He has a "way" with him that makes friends, something Mr. Loeb Sought earnestly to acquire, but never quite achieved. During the first year or so as secretary to President Roosevelt, Loeb was about the most unpopular man In Washington. Later, when - people who regularly have business at the White House, got used to his peculiarities of manner and discovered that he did not mean to be offensive, he gained considerable in popularity, but it cannot be said that he ever acquired an enthusiastic following. . Despite that fact that a popular presidential secretary, is very necessary to a successful administration. President Roosevelt pronounced Loeb the "best secretary any man ever had." This despite the fact that George B. Cortelyou, generally accredited as the most successful and accomplished man who ever held the position, had also served as secretary to Mr. Roosevelt. Notwithstanding Mr. Roosevelt's opinion of his secretary, there is no doubt that Mr. Loeb lost the administration 1 good many friends. Mr. Carpenter apparently has set out with a determination to avoid the mistakes which Loeb made. . Bailey Makes a Hit. With all due regard to Str. Carpenter, however, undoubtedly the -most popular private secretary of the new administration is Robert O. Bailey, who has been selected to serve in that capacity by Secretary of the Treasury MacVeagh. Mr. Bailey is a newspaper man of long experience in Washington, having for a number of years been a political writer' on the Washington Star and later a member of. the staff of the Associated Press. He always was popular with his fellow newspaper workers, and since taking
up his duties at the treasury has had
to keep almost continuous open house.
Secretaries of the treasury appear to
have a penchant for newspaper men as
their secretaries, a number of them having served in- that capacity within the past few years. Several of them
have been promoted to be assistant secretaries of the treasury and have
risen to high positions in the financial
world.
Taft is Fisherman. Mr. Taft is the first fisherman-pres
ident since Grover Cleveland and among the numerous fishing clubs on
the Upper and Lower Potomac there Is keen rlTalry for the honor of enter
taining him. Navigation on the Poto-1 mac ends at Washington; all the river above is kr own as the Upper, and all
below as the Lower Potomac. The Upper Potomac and Its tributaries. 4acluding the Shenandoah, abounds In small-mouth black bass, and It used to be one of Mr. Cleveland's favorite fishing waters. In the Lower Potomac, within easy reach of Washington, big-mouth bass are to be had. and farther down where the water begins to be salt most of the sea fishes. From the 31st of March to the 1st of June Is the closed season for bass. As there will not be enough warm weath-
ed to make fishing worth while before the former date, the enthusiasts who
want to get the president out will have to wait until the season opens again.
If Mr. Taft is In Washington after the 1st of June he will be deluged with invitations to go fishing.

A N.w Mascot. A saucy looking success mascot, which claims to be able to cheer the depressed and make them work, is the latest rival of the popular "Bilirken." Developed in plaster, antique bronze or metal, the statuette represents a dimpled boy. nine inches high, kneeling
upon a square, flat pedestal, his arms ', akimbo, his mouth wide open and his i
eyes closed, as if he were convulsed with laughter at one of his own jokes. Embryo horns sprout in from above
