On opening a secret drawer of a

plate running trains via Adrian
thus using the se miles of “Panhan-
die Short Line,” grade that is prac-
tically finished from Adrian through
Hereford to Dimmitt in Castro Coun-
ty. The plan is to run to Lubbock
from there to His Springs and on to
San Antonio. This makes an air line
that goes through a splendid coun-
try all the way, and can be built
cheaper than any other grade.
By using the present Rock Island
from Tucumearle to Adrian, a dis-
lance of 65 miles through very rough
country, and over the treacherous
“Cap Rock" much time and expense
will be saved. This, in connection
with the 60 miles of grade through
Hereford that is already in, will
make it possible to have trains run-
ning from Tucumearle to Dimmitt in
a very short time Hereford and
Dimmitt stand ready to pay substan-
Hal bonuses for this road. The Here-
ford Chamber of Commerce expec t
soon to have a proposition to put be-
fore the people bearing on this pro-
ject. Cheap coal from the big Daw-
an Mines and direct enfection with
the great central part of Texas and
the Const Country are some of the
numerous advantages to be raised.
The Empire Construction Co., of
Omaha, Nebraska has the general

AN AKOMAN CONCERT
An Interesting Programme Perform-
ed on the Organ and Piano
An interested audience was assem-
bled in Aeolian Hall yesterday after
noon at a matinee given to demon-
strate some of the Aeolian concert
organ and pianola piano. The pur,
pose of the concert was to show how
music of the best kind could be play-
ed in a thoroughly musically man-
ner on the instruments and also how
both could be utilized to accompany
vocal solos. The singer was Andrea
de Segurola of the Metropolitan Or
era House and the players were Dion
W. Kennedy at the organ, Egon Puts
pianola plano solist and W. C. Woods
pianola plano accompanist. (
The demonstration of the powers
of the fine concert organ which is
built at the rear of the stage in the
hall was especially interesting by
reason of the precision of the execu-
tion, the instantaneous operation of.
the electric stops, the noble tonal ef-
fects and the elasticity of the nuane-
ing. Naturally much of this depends
on the player, but the responsiveness
of the instrument was admirable.
Again the fluency and delicacy of
the concert organ mechanism was
shown in the accompaniment to Mr.
of your readers.
When Democracy Dies

Segurola was heard In another air
from the same opera, this time ac-
companied by the pianola piano,
which has often been called upon
successfully to show its adaptability
to combination with voice or with
other instruments.
These concerts have satisfied those
who have attended them with obser-
vant minds that the Aeolian mechan-
ism for operating the organ is eap-
able of astonishing and beautiful re-
sults. The pianola has been much
improved in many ways and the de-
fects which most seriously antagonize
artistic mints in the beginning have
been so far overcome that music love
ers fully recognize the excellence of
the instrument
One thing is certain and that is
that he proper enjoyment of music
played on these mechanisms is in a
measure dependent on the skill of the
player. To acquire this skill requires
study and practice. The difficulties
in the way of its requirement, how-
ever, are not formidable, and' that of
course is the principalreason way
the mechanisms offer attractions to
persons of musical inclinations who
have not a musical technic.
— But the belief that the instruments
cannot produce artistic results is eas-
By perceived by a visit to one of the
concerts at which tey are operated by
the Aeolian experts. They must be
accepted as musicians. These ken,
tlemen shows genuine appreciation of
the works which they perform and
they present what may Properly be
termed interpretations. The logical
conclusion is that interpretation is
within the reach of others possessed
of musical intelligence.—W. J. Hen-
derion, in the New York Sun, April

“The failureeof motorists to use
sugnals in their true function gives
a wrong impression to the non-mot-
oring public which is largely in the
majority. Motorists should earn
the results of misusing their warn
ing signals. It to equally necessary
that the non-motorists should under-
stand that the misuse of a warning
signal in no way detracts from the
general benefit of such signal when
1t is properly used. Once this fact
is understood many of the disturbing
conditions that constantly operate to
create antagonism between motorists
and non-motorists would be removed.

What Cavalieri Thinks
of the Weber
Lina Cavalieri, the famous operatic
sporano, who tang to 5000 people at
the Hippodrome a few nights ago,, •
has written to the Aeolian Co. her
. views of the Weber piano. In part
she said: .
“I love the tone of the Weber pi-
ano. In it there is so much of the
roundness—the liquidity of the hu-
man voice. It is because of this hu-
manlike quality of tone, I think, that
the Weber is such an adaptable in-
strument for accompaniment work. 1
have a Weber always in my private
apartments. It la my personal choice
of all pianos. I desire to extend to
you my kindest wishes for your fu-
tare successes.”
