Newspaper Page TextTHINGS SEEN IN BOSTON by a SOUTHERN GIRL IN THE NEW ENGLAND CONSERVATORY. An Interesting Description of a Con cert-Talks on Temperance and Other Matters—The New Public Library In an Unfinished Condition. Sketch of the 3avannah Court House Tower. New England Conservatory, Boston, JJov. 21. —Boston has been delivered over to womankind tor the last week or so. We bare bad the Beneficent Society fair and concert at the conservatory and the Woman's Christian Temperance Union all over the city. As regards the latter I am on the fenoe. It seems to me their platform is a trifle too expansive; it covers too much ground; it is too large an order. And then, being a reader of Kate Field’s Washington and absorbing her v.ewi on the “intemperance of prohibition,” I am divided in mr mind. I suppose it is the nature of reforms to be radical and extreme at first. The temperance meetings have been at tended bv crowds. Most of them, I strongly suspect, 'lined by Lady Somerset’s title. Sev eral of the conservatory student? went to one of the last meetings, and as I had to stay bjhind I flew to receive an account of the proceedings. “What do you think!” exclaimed one of them, an ardent southerner from Texas. “We went expeotlng to be addressed by Lady Somerset, and who do you suopose was introduced to the audience!” "I am sure I can’t imagine." I replied on the qui vive with curiosity. "Why a darky, a real darky. Mrs. Amanda Smith!” “Shi” I whispered. "Reflect! We are not at home, we are in L;"ton. And how did she look, and what did she .jy *’’ “O, she was u-? of these tall, masculine looking colored women, -suite got up with a shirt front and a cut-away c;t. and she opened her address with a wild, bai - baric burst of melody, and then rambled on and on, telling us principally about herself. Bbe was an ex-slave and a traveler in Af rica, and probably the rest of the world, and her hobby was prohibition, of course, and her aim—the reformation of the world.” "Isn’t it curious," said another girl pen sively, "what a great objeotiou we have to being reformed? All I ask is to be let alone. Don’t you?” And then we pitohed into an ardent discussion of prohibition, and talked until the electric light went out, pre sumably in disgust—and we voted for a postponement of the question and the meet ing adjourned. A TALK ON TEMPERANCE!. The Rev. Anna Shaw preached in Chelsea last Buuday on temperance, of course. She is a tine looking, brainy woman, with a gift of speeoh that many a miuister might eiavy. Her wit kept the congregation alert Mii every now and then a subdued ripple would run around the room. Dear me I It does seem as if this were “woman’scentury,” doesn’t it? I have a friend here, a southerner, who is studying medicine in the university, and to show you what strides toward intellec tual heights we are making and what cour age for emergencies women qre developing she actually went to sleep one night with a thigh-bone and a string of vertebra) calmly reposing beside her! When she awoke and roalizod her awful predicament, did she faint or have hysterics i No, sir, she com p sodly put them in u bureau drawer and weut back to hed as If nothing unusual had happened. If that isu’t courage and poise of mind, what is it} Tne Beneficent Society of Ibe New Eng land Conservatory have been holding a fair in the handsome drawing-rooms. The car pets were takeu up and tables covered with pretty things, and various edibles were arrauged around the rooms. At one end of the loug marble-tiled corner a Japanese tea booth was fitted up. The immense mirror set in the wail reflected the pink lights and hangings and made a little bower evidently ?,uito attractive to those who patronized the air. Tea was dispensed in Japanese cups by damsels got up ala Japonaisa, and you had the privilege of paying 26 cents for tea and becoming the proud possess >r of the cup. Near the booth Donna Juanita fore told the future by looking at your hand. The priestess of palmistiyr was gorgeously attired in turkey red drapery adorned with Urge and costly ourtain rings, two of whleh also depended from her ears in the most ap proved gypsy fashion. Her oracular say ings were listened to with keenest anxiety ana the wails that went up from the disap pointed ones who “would never get mar ried 1” were trnly heart-rending. Altogether the fair was very successful, and the concert on the evening of Nov. IS was one of the most enjoyable over given in Sleeper hall. AN ENJOYABLE CONCERT. The opening number, a fugue and varia tions on a theme of Beethoven by Saint- Baens woe exquisitely played by Mr. Ni kisch and Mr. Faelteu. One movement, recurring every now and then, was inde scribably lovely, like the sudden shiver of wind over the sea, or the sigh of night in the pices. Mr. Nikisoh plays with perfect technique and expression, but sits at the piano as if he were carved in stone; not a muscle of his face betraying tue feelings of his soul. At first it is provoking, this absolute re pose, but it presently becomes positively fascinating, and is the fad among musi cians now. If you want to be truly great you must cultivate it. You must look like —well, anything inanimate, and play like a seraph. No more monkey tricks, no more facial gymnastics, uo more bowiug to your music page as if the oomposer himself sat among the notes to compel homage; no more raising of hands aud eyes heavenward, and genuflections to the keyboard. You must be “icily regular, splendidly null” with just a touch of languid hauteur and surprise' in your eyos. Then if you are applauded to tho echo, you must stroll meanly back upon the stage and bow slightly and depreciatingly, though floral offerings be banked skyward and roses costa small fortune apiece I—“But1 —“But this is a digres sion.” After tho opening duet on two Pianos, camo three German songs bv Mrs. Nlkiseh. If I had only understood (Herman I ahauld have enjoyed her singing immensely, for she prouounces her words so clearly and distinctly. Her voice is a po tverful round mezzo soprano and she looked remarkably well in a stylish eveuing gown of vert lumiere covered with biaok lace. Mr. Nikisch’s accompaniments were heavenly. The two must lend such an Ideal hfe, for both are eminently artistic, and yet so unlike. ~^ r is the embodiment of repose; of expression. , before the programme was over she sang three more songs. (It is so funny to me, this serving up of songs in courses. You get them a trifle mixed!) They were all ° v ®'y-but alas, all Gorman. I wondered “ ft 10 bad only the one language, riven an Italian song would have been a oon and a grateful change to her English audience, and a French one would have heeti hailed with joy and delight—but six Berman ones! Mr. Mahr and Mr. Dunham, on violin ~ , or K ß , n i gave a superb adaotiou bv Mr. Mahr of Wagner’s “Good Friday Srell" from rarsifal. ’ I believe I enjoyed it more than any other number, except Air.

He began at the beginning of English eff .rts in a vocal ,*• a, i d J ll Pirated his lecture with songs of the different periods; so the treat was a mental and musical one at the same time. Mr. bison U so well known and highly regarded as a great musical cri:ic and authority in Boston that one almost hrsi tates to say anything about him at all, hut I daresay the students who have the pleasure of att-nding his lectures fully realize what un immense advantage and education it is to them. 1 quite forgot to say, while writing of the society concert, that two very stout gentlemen, with an “air of the courts ’ about them, came in just before the concert began, and my next door neighbor nudged me and whispered: "The Grun felts.” Sure enough, it was. They were very German or Austrian, or something in appearance and behnvi r, and said “tirava” at Mrs. Nikisch and clapped vociferously and ran out between times to congratulate the performers; at least the pianist did. His Brother kept his seat, aud was not as much r.n evidence. Perhaps he did not feel so famous, or maybe he was not naturally so enthusiastic. Are Americans more re served than foreigners, or are we blessed with a keener sense of the ridiculous * “Our Mr. Butoni’’ was the soloist at the fifth rehearsal and symphony concert last Saturday evening. Haydn’s Sympnony No. 1 in E-flat war given for the first time, followed bv the Beethoven concerto for pianoforte, No. 4 in G-major, cadenza by Busoni. He was re called three or four times by the audience, who fell in love with his truly magnificent playing. In the historical and descriptive notes of the symphony programme Mr. Wilson says of the concerto: “It is believed to have been begun in 1805, but perhaps not finished until 180(5. The work was a particular favorite with Mendelssohn, who, after it had lain un heeded for many years in Germany, played it at the Gcwandhaus concert in Leipsig, Nov. 3, 1830. Boveral years later Mendelssohn played the concerto in London on two occasions, making extemporaneous cadences which differed totally from the ‘morovisations in the same places with which nt, hd astonished and delighted his hearers at the retiearzc.* at each perform ance. It was not until a later work that Beethoven infracted tae previous custom of leaving to the executant to insert oadence* at particular periods in the first and last movements of a concerto. (Mr. Busoni will play cadenzas written by himself.) Some time after the completion of the G-major concerto, Bethoven wroto several cadences for the first movement and one for the last, which were published subsequent to his death. It is one of the most beautiful and graoeful compositions, but at the same time is a poetn which, in the range of con certos, has no equal. It Is a concerto writ ten by a tone-poet, aud only a tone-poet is able to perform it worthily.” A SPLENDID PUBLIC LIBRARY. The new public library was oponed a week or so ago in its very unfinished condi tion, for a display of architectural de signs In the mala room, and, I suppose, to give the people a faint idea of its future beauty. The entrance and stairway of marble are partly done, and huge slabs of what I took So be Mexican onyx were lying about in readiness for the walls they were to adorn. The enormous lions at the fli st landing wore in place, glaring amicably at each other across the white steps aud far above the heads of the spectators. They are noble specimens of the soulptor’s art, and their great size and apparent smallness gives you some notion of the superb proportions of the hall and staircase. In the main room, which extends the entire length of the build ing, some of the lovely stained glass win dows ware in and the rough walls were cov ered with designs from Nw York and Boston architects. Borne of the designs for build ings, public and private, in the south were as beautiful as any In the collection, and there was a fine sketch of the clock tower In Savannah and the mural decorations in Christ church, by Haberstrah & Sou. There were "lots and lots” of charming drawiugs, water colon, sketahes, photo graphs of buildings, towers, fountains, ami even a design for the entrauoe to a cave, by Miss Edson. We looked until A. declared she was cross-eyed, and then' we ran across Copley square to the art museum to see the exhibi tion in the print room of Walter Crane’s illustrations and water-colors. I can’t be gin to describe them they were so English and medieval; esthetic in the most approved sixteenth century style. Some of them were weird and ail were wonderful. 6OMO TOUGH STEED STEAKS. Chicago Restaurants Have Been Serv ing Horae Flesh. Chicago, Nov. 29.—Great consternation was caused among patrons of restaurants, boarding bouses and retailers who deal in aheap meats in this city by the arrest of George Youogelaus on a charge of selling herse flesh labeled as “beef” to such insti tutions. The police have been aware for some time that a systematic trade in horse flesh was being carried on between certain meat dealers and restaurants, but the meat was prepared so carefully—all bones being removed and the hindquarters sold— that it was impossible to detect the differ ence between a beefsteak and a horsestoak. Youugelaus was nt once arrested, and ou his promises the officers found a lot of horse flesh in pickle, verifying the report that Youngelaus was shortly to sell, on oontraot, a quantity of "corned bsef.” Youngelaus is said to have a partner who has fled, how ever, taking with him a lot of old horses which were to be slaughtered. It is be lieved that the traffic in horse flesh in this city has amounted to many thousands of dollars, TOLD KIS' MOTHER, But No One Else, of His 811ver Mines in the West.

GOOD SOLID GHOST. SEVERAL SHAKY CITIZEN'S HAVE SEEN IT And Will Make Affidavits to Their Statements That the Spook Prom ised to “Come Again,” and They Bay That Hie From'.se Made On the Scaffold Was Fearfully Kept. From the Cincinnati Enquirer. Danville, Ky.. Nov. 24. —As the traveler going south over the Queen aud Crescent road approaches Junction City. Ky., he can see, if he looks on a htgh hill a little south east of the Tribble house, a primitive log cabin. This cabin was on March 7, 1872, the scene of a blood-curdling tragedy, the memory of which has gradually grown dim in the minds of the older citizens, who were once familiar with all its horrid details. At the time stated there was no town where Junction City now stands, the near est being Shelby City, one mile eastward. In the cabin referred to lived Joseph Mc- Neal, an old man 80 years of age, and his wife, perhaps twen’y years younger. They had no near neighbors, few cares and few wants. They passed their days quietly in their humble home, fearing no molesta tion. At an early hour on the morning of March 5 a countryman, on passing the cabin, was surprised to see the face of Mrs. McXeai at a garret window, and to bear her utter cries of distress. Approaching near enough to talk to the old lady, be was told that she feared SOMETHING AWFUL HAD HAPPENED In the down-stairs room during the night as someone had broken in, and that when she escaped from the room and rau upstairs, she had left her husband and the intruder engaged in a struggle. Entering the house, the oountryiuan saw tables and chairs over turned, bed clothing scattered about, and in the middle of the floor the body of the old mail MoNeal, stone (lead, with a gaping wound just over the heart. A crowd of iu dignant citizens soon gathered about tbo promises. Mi s. McNoal was taken to a neigh bor’s house, and, after a time, told her story at length. She said that she and her hus band had retired rather early the night be fore, aud had both fallen asleep, when they were awakened by a loud pounding at the door. Boou the door was broken open and a man entered with horrible oaths. He at ouce approached the bed aud began ail inde cent assault upon her person. She fought him as best sue could, and in the struggle rolled from the bed to the floor. He ag-.lu seized her, but by this time her aged hus band was on his feet nod had grappled with the villain, who released her, when, although the room wus intensely dark, she found her way to the stair door and escaped to the garret. From her place of concealment she hoard the struggle continue for a short time, and thou sho heard a hoavy fall. After that tbero was a sound of footsteps in the room below, as though some ouo were groping in the darkness. Then all was silent, and she remained crouching in the corner on the bare floor, and praying for daylight to come. When asked if she had susuioion as to who the murdorar was, she said she strongly suspected Tom Guthrie, a young colored mail about 22 years of age, who had been doing odd jobs of work about the place for Borne months past. She thought she recognized his voice, “as he always talked as though his mouth was full of mush.” Guthrie was arrested, tried and SENTENCED TO BE HANGED In the following July. After sentence the condemned man had little to say for two or three weeks, when one morning he opened his heart to the jailer, J. L. Minor, andoou fossed everything, admitting that his sole object in entering the house wae to outrage Mrs. McNeal, and stating that when the old lady got away from him the old man held on to him so tightly that he had to stab him to get loose. On the morning of the execution he seemed proitrated with terror, but refused a drink of whisky which was offered him, saying he had never drank any and would not begin then. As he was driven through tbe streets to the place of hanging he was a pitiable object to look upon. On the soaffold Tom male a rambling speech, clos ing with the significant words: “I will come again .’’ Tom’s threat on the scaffold to “come again” seems to bave boon faithfully kept. Several weeks after the hanging three beys who were playing near the building where the doctors had put the body for dissection heard a sepulchral voioa cry out, “I am Tom Guthrie." P. A. Mook9, a citizen of Danville, also heard tho words quoted, and will make oath to the fact, After the circumstance just noted Tom was not known to visit tho earth until about six months ago, when a shrouded form with a black face was seen repeatedly near tho scone of the hanging and on the turnpike road leading from that spot to tbe scene of tho murder. Around and around McNeal’s long cabin, which is now unoccu pied, about the hour of midnight the ghost goes, wringing its hands. On the exact spot where the scaffold stood the wraith stalks slowly, pointing upward. On the pike between the two places it walks bare headed, and disappears when approached too oiosely. Following aro certificates from several eminent citizens bearing upon the surprising matters just related: DR. ADDISON HARLAN’S STATEMENT. I am a physician of many years’ practice, and believe strongly in the curative proper ties of roots and herbs, and in order to bo certain of getting what I desire always gather them myself. It has been my habit for yeare to gather these medicines in tho “Knobs,” near Junction City, and on my return have sometimes boeu overtaken by darkness, always passing by the McNeal cabin. Several times within the last six months I have seen near ths cabin a figure, which strongly resembled Tom Guthrie when In the flesh. One night about four weeks ago while passing the cabin I again saw the figure. 1 spoke to it, but reoeived uo answer, although it continued to ad vance upon me. Becoming frightened I fired upon it when throe paces distant with a 44-caliber bull-dog revolver. When tho smoko cleared away the figure, or ghost was nowhere to be seen. Dr. Addison Harlan. PROF. THOMAS HALLEY’S STATEMENT. lam a musician aud artist, but latterly have devoted my ontire time to music. Much of my time for tho last ten years has been spent in Lexington, but within the last year I have been in Danville. One night about the middle of October last 1 was re turning from the country where I had been :o instruct a class, and when near the cross ing of the Lancaster and Danville pikes, near where Tom Guthrie was hauged, I saw a figure which strongly resembled the de ceased, whom I knew well when living. I spoke to the shape, liut it answered not, only pointed its finger upward and dis appeared. Prof. Thomas Halley. HARRISON GENTREY’S STATEMENT. I was, until its recent demolition, proprie tor of the Dumas house in Danville. About three mouths ago I was returning from Shelby City, where I had Leen to oonvey several guests of my house who wiihed to strike an early train at that point. It was dark when I had reached the hollow just north of the toll-gate, when, looking up, I saw in the road before me Tom Guthrie as plain as I ever saw him in life. He pressed bis hard to his neck and shook bis head, and while I looked at him began to disap pear, aud in less than half a minute there was nothing where he had 1 eon standing. "What do you mean by coming around here now ?" said the woman to the tramp who ap peared at the kitchen door. “You haven't half tinished that pile of wood I gave you to split.’’ "i know it, ma'am,’’was the reply: "hut I came to see If you wouldn’t cash these few chlpsf in advance.”—J adge. "I’m vert foroiving," said Satan. "No mat ter how much a man abuses me, when becomes to my place he is Bure to be warmly received." Life. HYGIENIC SUGGESTIONS. (Family Doctor.) Take an hour of exercise to every round of food. We ar not nourished by whst we eat. but by what we digest. Dyspepsia is a poor pedestrian. Walk at the rate of four miles an hour and you will soon leave it behind. If your stomach is out of crier, vow diges tion weak, or you feel chilly at nay time, bear in mind that you need a stimulant. Do not be deceived in regard to stimulants; there are many, but there is only one known to the world to dav, which combins pure medici nal qualities, witii tne best efficiency. That is Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey. You can well afford to remember this care fully aud act upon it constai. ly, as it may mean to yo i, as it nas meant-to so many others, health, happiness, strength and a lone lease of life. Remember always that when any dealer tries to sell you something in the plac* of wnat you call for, he has air interested motive and is seek ing to impose on you for hi* ow n ends.
