THE MUSICAL FESTIVAL: Moaic wat Kiag through Saturday nod Sundaj. It will be the topic of eonrtrntioo fat weeks to ocxne, to the exdoaioo ' I of llmeat ill elae. creo the weather. ■ 1 Anything that we beard in the aeatom j pnat in the departmenl of music is but | the song of tie early bird compared with . the everlasting music of the sea and air. 1 The grand orcbestraa. choruses and solos ' of the Festival for the lime being rivaled i the transforming strains of Orpheus' lute, j • which only charmed and summoned about • it the wild beasta of the foreata, and under ' iu influence they became tame and gentle as lambs. The grand measures and harmonies ofyemcrdty and dnv_before did mom, the}' reached and touched the human heart, calming and bringing into sub- j 3 rex ion its passions and lifting mil who , came under I be inspiring influence aborc I Itie gross things of earth and nearer the 1 of bearru. Before 'the time appointed for the orchesuas lo, begin the music of the air and : iu accompaniment of a blast from the j • "Cart Of the Winds," blown by that old , mischief maker, .Eolua, and a sprinkle j from the water-cart of Pluvius, did a had 1 thing for the music pavilions. Tbrlr can- ! vas coverings and decorations were scat- I tered and the .emblems badly wrecked, j , Notwithstanding these untoward drcum- j 1 Wanrct at 6 o'clock, under shelter of the j I verandas of the Stockton and Oongirs- j j Hail, the combined orchestras, in presence , of vast assemblages, broke forth in trinnij rhant strains of barmooy. Bock's Band combined with 6imon Hasaier's orchestra I j. r formed at the Stockton, and the Rio- , j puM Band, of Reading. Pa, at Congress "} llall, led -by tbe master hands of their . . leaders alternately. The gTand" eekcur.01 i introducing wind and suing instruments ! sad the drum corps ttflf executed with I perfect time and artistic effect. ! Io the evening the Kingold Band was ; at the Stockton and Beck's at Congre-rs ; Hall. Un account of the rain tbe temporary music pavilions oould not be useii, and under somewhat disadvantageous cir. . cumatanccs the playing was done under j the verandas of the Stockton and Cod. grcsa Hall lo listening and admiring ibon- >' At Oongitwa Hall Sunday afternoon the Grand Festival was continued by the regular program, and an opportunity was had ! of listening to the rendition of selections j from the lofty and immortal genius of | li asinl. Handel, Haydn. Wagner, MeyerVerdi, Gounod, Sbuber and Lcuti Tbe storm of the previous evening . j was followed by a beautiful bright day, and so far as the elements were concerned everything was most propitious. The place (Congress Hall lawn) for an open air festival seeuted as though it had been made for just Ibal purpose and nothing else. All the externals were good, the msnagement being quite faultless in all its details, and after weeks of ardpoos prepara- , lion tbe efforts which had been made were about to reach their culminating point in the first regular performance of the afternoon program. Long betyrc the advertised time for commencement a dense throng of lovers of fine music were Young couples, sisters, cousins. - undcx and atmtx, in Tact everybody, war sesmingly anxious to be on time. Promptly at 4.80 p. a. the orchestra, with Mr. ZimmermqngB leader, rendered a delightful t •OTFriuS by Leutncr. Tbe music executed indicated a thoroughly drilled corps of : musicians. Mr. Paul Kirchner next fav. ; ored tbe audience with a. selection from entitled "Cn acgelo d'araorc," Gerald L We must aay for tbia highly ■ cultivated artist that his rendition of this most beautiful composition was ddight1 fully exquisite. Then came an overture from Verdi's masterpiece, "Alda," which the combined orchestra performed in fine style. Mr. Artmckle next delighted the listeners by a fine cornet solo.- Selections from tbe "Creation," by Hadyn, was next, and tbe principal feature was a duct, "Graceful Consort," suag by Mias Auna L. Fuller and Mr. Max Hcnrich. Tbe voices of these two popular vocalists held tbe audience spell-bound while warbling tbe soft notes of angelic harmony. Tbe chorus deserves great credit. The festival was, all in all, a grand toccesa, and do dqobt will be repeated shortly. Those who witnessed It will testify with us that it was the grandest affair that ever summer resort was bleared with. At tbe Stockton Sunday evening the jam was unprecedented. Long before idmlnsmn could be gained tbe vast rolunda was thronged with anxious chairholders Tbe scene on the ground ws characterised with peculiar likeness lotbe great opening day at lha Centennial. Tbe public, while actively moving, relit bewith brooming quiet and order. expectation exhibited itself. The view from tbe packed porches was grand. Never before in our history have we seen anything like this io largeness and respectability. The electric ligbta ' cast a mellow gleam with splendid effect ' over tbe great sea of faces, and revealed a right of remarkable beauty. Tbe evening _ concert began at 8.80 with the prelude, which was rendered with powerful w as grandly augmented by the beauteous moon's rays. Thanks to the queen of night for her wcloome smiles on this festive occasion. Immediately following ihJ prelude came tbe regular program. The eioelieut overture by the luaucriy ILwcini was hardly beard at first at tbe remotest part of tbe vast audience, but as tig music swelled and tbe glib tongues quieted, al 00 tbia score emled. Mr. Arbockie's rendition of "Tan torn Ergo," ljy ' waa elegantly done, and brought out rounds of hearty applause. • Nothing In Ibis day's floe work surpassed i lbs magnificent renderings of Mire Fuller. It teemed is though the very ocean ceased its rumbling murmurs ' as the sweet, full voice of this gifted artist floated in the ! air. Handd'a "Hallelujah" (Messiah) was splendidly sung by the feetira! cborur. This selection from Headers more sublime ! oratorio produced floe imprettiooi Part II. was wholly devoted In the Italian matter, Roaslni, whose "Stabal ,

_ i Mater," the last great work of his retire i merit from public life, was produced wilh J 1 I masterly skill by soloists, orchestra and , ' ' . cborur. It soems difficult to say which of j ° tbe singers did best In this selection. Mr. , - Psul Kirchner, Mr. Max Henrich. Mire , * i Anna Fuller and Mre. Cole were nobly 1 1 ! chosen, sad more harmoniously gratified i '' the severest critical ear. j I ' | Part III. Tlioagh brief, was by no 1 * means lacking in effect. Meyerbeer, 00c j I 1 | of Ratrioi'a admirers and imiiatora, being j 1 ' I tbe principal author whose selections was \ 1 1 rendered. Al tbe elnae came 'Gld Hun- ' r died," which was gifen by nil tbe forces j j ' combined with sn effect that teemed cc- I ' leetial. Each part of the chorus rose like ' ' 1 a mighty column and towered in mid-air , " | as it were, producing a sensation of great , " ' delight to tbe riveted audience, and at ila , 3 ! close Tel! the last stroke of Simon's baton, i 1 : But the people, "goodness gracious look B at tbem all around," on* could bear. 1 "How many do you think there arc?"

It waa shortly, a few days, periiajM. after Ibe Gad's Hill robon tbe Iron Mountain Railroad, that ! completely worn out by done attention to bunnws iu tbe Salida courts, I determined I to run down to the farm and rest for a few days. 1 took tbe night train on tbe Lexing1 ton branch of tbe Missouri Pacific, and got off at the little station near tbe Shelby pUoe, called Page City. It was a beautiful moonlight night, and as tbe house was but a little i over a mile distant, 1 shouldered my double- , barrelled shot-gun. which I bad taken along for some sport, end trudged over the lane ' leading to the bomeriead. The old home I was surrounded by some tsll forest trees, I end I had just emerged from their shadow , into the moonEght, twenty steps from the ' home, when e clear, ringing voice cried out, 1 " Halt !" end at the same instant I saw shin- , ! ing in the moonlight * polished rifle barrel protruding from s partially raised window. 1 !

I did no | until I came close lo tho door, when Shelby's voioe said: — "It is all right, boya, 1 will vouch for bim." I then entered, and lookid about ma Tbe oozy little sitting room bad boon converted into a fortress. The windows were barricaded securely, and furniture was moved upagsinsLJbe door, while on a table in tbe oeutrc of tbe room lay a collection of revolvers and repeating rifles that would have excited the admiration of a pirate. There were fire men in Ibe room whom I did not know. They sat around and did not talk. .The gentlemen also wore . their small arms. " These are some friends of mine," said Shelby, and. I was not introduced further. I immediately knew that tho three Younger bretbsre. Bhelby and I which the others showed no disposition to enter, end at last I was shown to bed, whert I loaaed until daylight in a troubled sleep. When I came down to breakfast the curtains wore drawn, and old Joe sat in an assy chair caluiy smoking his pipe and playing with a couple of youngster*.
