Mentioned. The approaching concert of Madame Schumann-Heink, the increased, inter est displayed by the public in gone ra I in jausic and musical discussions, and an article, entitled "The Doom of ihe Contralto," which appeared .in -. the November nutnbeer of "The Scrap Book" are ths motives which drove writer to the following remarks mild reproofs, Mr, Pitts Sanborn is the writer of "Tie Doom of the Contralto," and he pr ceeds to tell his reader in his well-writUsn deserUtion that Jh con tralto species threatens to become ex tinct, owing-to the. tendency of com ' posers of operatio music to give the 4 beat parts ioHrthers. i It Is evident ... from Mr. Sanborn's following remarks that the best parf'm an opera, or at least what he1 considers the best part. is a good looking heroine, the variety which is always well dressed, has gen tle and befitting manners, never la over-emotional, and in the-end always creeps or is pushed into the arms of t her male affinltyi , All la well that ends wen.",, " One might only regret that Mr. Sanborn Ms not lived In the age of Haendel and contemporaries, - for then he might have been able to Induce the early, opera writers to ac cept his Views on the matter, and the ' grand Operas of the day would prob ably be nothing but a compound of i Marlltt and Marlon Crawford fiction i set to more or less appropriate mu-1 ale. . Still one cannot treat auch opin ions and outbursts lightly as there Is undercurrent of truth in them. ? The plebs (not referring to social steading but to 'intellect, the low-brows con stitute: the large majority' of opera going people in the United States to ' day. .This category loves salon-heroes and heroines and is a good 'J'al more interested In the costumes ot the re , 7 Bpeotlv singers and the plot of 'the ,opera. If there la such a thing, than In the singing and music in general. This Is not astonishing , as toe Con stant thought of the almighty: dollar and schemes whereby on will amass a fortune are ever foremost in -the "American's'' ; brain and he has . no time to study and learn to understand ; . music or any other art. : ' A1V that is no reason though why these low brows should fit as judges over real artlat ana condemn a woman because. ' she impersonates a character and dresses the part accordingly. Mr. Sanborn ' remarks , 'that 'there are comparatively ' y few parts ' for .' contraltos , In the ' operas which are most played at pres . ent. That is very true, but one must bear- in' hjlnd ' whatwe know front tradition and w;hat the present, shows . us, namely, that'there have been and are very few real cqntraltos in exis tence. Mt. . Sanborn goes on to say that the entire company which answers the call of contralto Warily ' presents an alluring array, and that it wight almost be recruited from an old ladles' home and an orphan asylum; That . is indeed a .remarkable tstate- ment, and it is something entirely new to the writer, who will Bet 6ut at 'once ' to ransack ; all the above mentioned - .institutions in the United States, in . search,, of the contraltos which aw hidden there. " . TO quote Mr.? Sanborn . again: "It , is . a Jiard 70S, , this anomalous posi tion of the operatic contralto. It Is unjust to her rare and beautiful voice. " It I an affront' to that amiable van- - lty which la the Inalienable right of every woman--to appear as charming and at least as young as her years ' ' permit." This is something rather - . novel again -Indeed, one never ceases to learn 1 The writer has, always been told that a real singer would rather appear in some character role, as there she had more chance to ahow that ' she can act besides sing. One al -ways 'speaks of musicians forgetting their respective surroundings wane - involved in .their art., A singer on. . the Operatic stage, who is forever con- sclous of her outward appearance, and thinks of nothing but her spoiled good r looks is something that one cannot discuss, but he leaves it to tha sagac ity of the reader to Judge whether or ' not such a singer tsould be called an 'artist. ' ' ' ";, " in te "Doom of the Contralto,' is , furthermore qutted.,t,he apparent, ex trlcation'ot Madame JOlive Fremstadt from the category wherein nature had ' ..placed her to enter the more xten " eive and more ihlghlyi-pald' field of the full - dramatic soprano. ; ' The writer of this article a well acquainted with Madame Fremstadt's years of study and i het early and late career, and V would say In explanation of the above mentioned apparent phenomenon, that the ' voice of this singer, vft'o" for; (four c long years stuJ " led ' " with " Llli Lohmann .-s 1n , Berlin, was tnaily trained for the slav ing of Wagnerian roles. It is a well V "known fact that the great Richar I re- quires quite an enormous range of his 4" ' singers, f sopranos, contraltos, tenor .

The Mecklenburg Fair Association declares a dividend of 38 per cent., which will he reported to the stock holders next Monday night at a meet ing already -called for that date. In addition to this amount there is ; a clearing of between 40 and 60, per cent, which will not be paid out in dividends, but will, remain In- the treasury for the purpose of ' buying new grounds,, or making such other fleeis as will be necessary for the fu ture existence ' of the . association. These facts were brought out last night at .-a meeting of the board of directors, and speak for themselves of the flnia succe;a which attended the recent show. This Is so far In excess, to the dividends heretofore ; declared that no comparison can be made In the flgurea It waa even grfa'ter than a maJoMty of those who are: Interest ed in the matter: had contemplated, and everybody knew that the associa tion made otfl of money. - - A committee consisting of President S. B. Alexander and Messrs. Z. T. Smith ; and Ei 8. . Williams , reportedj that Mr. E. D. Latta had been Inter viewed in regard to . v extending, ? fh leas on the present fair grounds, and had refused to extend - ihe lease any longer than -the present contract calls for which, la four yearaMonger. C No definite action wa taken on the mat ter of securing suitable grounds after this , time, but it was generally . dU- cussea ana unerstooa tnat it i was necessary to be Jooklng around so as to get options on such grounds as would be fit for the purpose. . Mr. Latta gave as his reason for not ex tending: the grounds his expectation of converting the property into build ing lots for the .market after that time,' " ' ' ;.'; : ' :;i -. : k-? : izc?. Col. Robert L.

He Is asked' to explain his side in order that the facta might be gained in the affair. Colonel Abernathy in his reply stated that he got. his stock properly placed and went to the office to make his entries and, after having done this, In a proper and legitimate man ner. he walked away and met a man named 'Jamreson, who inquired of him if there- wag r any, ' class; for thoroughbred horses, ana f If v, there would be any - objection to nis. enter ing fdur. ?

TTEKrc OF PRAYER. Services to Be Held at the Ixwal As- ."-,;.: Boeiation. The week of prayer observed throughout the world each year in November by the Young ' Women's Christian Association has': now be come ' so generally recognized as an Important feature in the development of each local association as to , be much anticipated. The call to prayer Is Issued by the worlds executive committee in Don don, to which have been sent during the year requests for prayer by work ers in the different countries. These reauests are printed and circulated a widely as' possible so that each of the 400,000 members may know the need Of her Sisters in all parts of the world. ' ...:',; ',.':: . As the second week in November comes round each year it Is observed with Increasing earnestness, and as a result of these gatherings for prayer held In each association when the work in. the it different counties is set forth, the young women of the world came very close to one an other at the feet ,of a common Father. u t Information creates Interest.' and as one hears of the life and. surround inga of young women in the far off countries even in south Africa, Rus sia and Bohemia, young , women are praying 'for one another. And In an swtr to this mighty voltime of ptay er going up from all parts of the world God to blessing its young wo manhood.

Spent a Term in the Federal Prison at Atlanta. Facing a probable imprisonment! for a number of years in the North Carolina penitentiary, James Lang, alias "Black Billy,' one of the most notorious safe-crackers in the United; States, will be . released November 19th from the Federal prison in At-: lanta, where he ha served a term of. five years; for cracking a safe at Greers," S- C. His release marks the disappearance from : Atlanta of a gang of eleven who have alf served lmpffsonmenta there ! for wild I es capades " In. "North and South Caro- yna, where they cut a wide ' swath robbing banks . and postoffices,-. "Black . Billy" Is; still notorious. His confinement In the Atlanta prison Is said to have resulted , In no check to his wild and vicious nature;"! The general regard of - him there Is '.that he is a dangerous creature and tne longer he stay behind the bars the better it is sfor civilization. ''Black Billy'? leaves the Atlanta prison with probably the worst record of alt the crooka who have In times past made their abode there, for a season. V His record- In the prison : confined ' ltseit especially . ; to ' "solitary" ' time' he served;; for he was the fellow who astonished the pen offlciala by re maining in tha prison dungeon rom November 13th. 1805, to April; 15th, 1908, and all he had to do to gain more liberty was to promise to be good and stick to the rules of the corrective institution. It required more than six months to effect his surrender, and : during this . time . he lived on bread and watej", . J , TO, BE TRIED IN NORTH CARO- ; una. V5:j "Black Billy' comes under guard, when he : Is released - at Atlanta; to this State, where he will be tried for breaking Into the Bank, of Davie, at Mocks ville. His three pals in this Job were tried a few months ago at Mocksville and were represented by Mr. F. R, McNInch, of the local bar. They were convicted and sentenced to the State prison for a number of years. Black Billy will, in all proba billty, share the same fate, as the evidence which was collected against his partners will be brought against him. Their names are Charles Rogers, H. B. Wilson, and Walter Wood, each with a number of aliases. It would require an Inch of print to give all the names which Black Billy has, -hitched to himself in hls"ild careef through this part of the country. Whenever It be came necessary for him to uncouple himself from a name, which he previously attached, it was done without any conscientious scruples and another put on to', serve for a time and undergo the same fate. , BLEW SAFE AT GREEKS. The 'indictment which sent Black Billy to the Atlanta prison was for breaking Into' the ' safe-at . the post- office of Greers, ' S, C J He; with his tnree pais above mentioned, were given five years In the Federal prison at : Atlanta, for, while numerous other charges were brought against them, it waa decided- to allow Uncle Sam to have first vengeance. This was but one of a number of instances where the men' made" raids on banks and postoffices In North and South Carolina, and it is said that when he serves even his time for breaking into the Bank of Davie, i enough charges will be. brought against him and the three others to keep them prisoners the remaining days of their lives. The other seven who orlginal'y belonged to the gang have bcn more fortunate than the , quartette and were UMa.to get off sooner than the others on account of good be havior. Had Black Billy been more penitent he might have served bet ter at the hands of the kejpe.va of the pen. . . ; - . - . A WILD ' AND UNCHECKED .( -RECORD. For years this band of yeggmen were terrors In the Carollnas. Be ginning January 16th, 1903, the gang blew no less than six safes during the balance of the month, and all the while government -and rittkerton detectives were ,on the trail, but failed. to bring them to bay. The entire bunch of eleven separated after being divided Iptd ganfesr and one of the , reasons that seven of them are not , now . serving further terms in prison is because they be longed to a gang less dangerous than that which Black Billy bossed. They appeared to be more tame and more easily civilized than the quartette of which Black Billy waa the recognised reader. To give the record of this man would take columns of ordinary print. Almost an unlimited amount might be written of him since he left the Bowery and, after attacking a bank in .Vermont, turned his trail south ward, where he winded up his wild and reckless career of crime. BATTLE AT A BANK. The raid on the Bank of Davie was made January 23d, 1903. Lang and his pals had sent off two charges or nitroglycerine without smashing the lock, when the noise awakened the cashier, who came to the door and opened fire on the yegg whd was Keeping, guard. While the Pinker tons were investigating this case, all the saie-Diowera having escaped un injured in the pistol battle, they came to Mecklenburg county and to Charlotte, where they made a- few unsuccesBful attempts. After this the men went to Monroe and there they were discovered and, after an ex citing xmase and a Bitched battle be tween -pursuers and pursued, they were Drought down and taken to ialL The nerve and coolness of the sang when they were confronted by of- ncer waa the feature of the entire capture and was .widely commented upon at me time.

The play is In four acts'; .the scenes of the first and last are In Tom Brown's rooms in famous old Hol- worthy Hall. The second act repre sent a scene In Harvard yard be tween Holworthy and Strouirhton Both scenes are faithful copies of the originals.-and will be instantly rec ognwed by any man who has ever been to Cambridge. The third act Is laid in the 'varsity boat house on the day of the race between the Harvard eight and an English crew the event about which centres the plot of the play.
