Is 'i FINISHING REHEARSAL Orchestra and Choral Society Meet Today Final Assembling of Musicians Be 1 for Presenting Great Concerts. v Orchestra Improvement Over Last Tear. The children's chorus and the Ral eigh orchestra get together for a "finishing" rehearsal at 2:30 today. At 3:30 there will be a rehearsal- of the Messiah in which the chorus, the augmented orohestra, and the quar- j tette of oratoria singers win go through the music together. '' The musicians who take part in the concert tonight are mostly Ral eigh people. The singers, except only the four principal voices, are all Ral eigh musicians. There are about 20 sopranos, about an equal number of altos, half as many tenors, and enough basses to balance their high voiced brethren. The orchestra, which ordinarily has about 30 mu sicians, will be augmented tonight by the addition of six symphony play ers from New York, who came this morning. One of these will help out the hitherto lonesome 'cellist of the orchestra, anther the equally lone some bass violin player. Of the others, one will play viola, another ; obol, and the remaining two will add to the general effect by playing French horn. The first violins were already numerous and strong enough for the size of the orchestra, so that the orchestra is now in good shape for effective work. As compared with last year the or chestra will show decided improve ment. There will be a greater varie ty of tone-color, and the players have profited moreover by seven months of steady practice under Mr. Hagedorn. Noticeable additions to the orchestra will be the double reed instruments, the obols and bassoon . and the French horns already mentioned. The bassoon, played by W. A. Par ker, will bo remarked by its close re semblance to a section of gas pipe. The oratorio singers, already well known in New York, are also on the ground. They are as follows: Adah C. Hussey, contralto; Frank Ormsby, tenor, and- Edwin Lockhart. These Blngers were, selected mainly for their ability : in oratorio singing, but -Raleigh musicians will have an oppor tunity to hear them, tomorrow after noon and evening in miscellaneous numbers. Taft and Carnegie at Grant Memorial Day. (Continued From First Page.) vice in Gen. Grant's cabinet. He re membered calling upon the general in 1876, when Grant was president, an occasion upon which he heard the president say with manifest pride, "I was first in horsemanship, but last In tactics." "As a military genius Grant de serves to rank with the greatest cap tains of history, the secretary con cluded. There was a burst of ap- plause when he paid tribute to tlie noble character of Gen. Robert E. Lee." Mr. : Carnegie scattered compli ment right and left when he started to speak upon "The Four Great Words." Occasionally he addressed his audience collectively as "gentle men," but he never failed to pause and add: "And, 1 beg your pardon, ladies. I wish all of you had a vote." Mr. Carnegie talked upon his fa vorite topic, peace, and with such ; seriousness that his spectacles, which j reposed at first upon tae bridge of j A Good " An old proverb sa3's:" Hunger is the best sauce."

The four great words were Grant's "Let Us Have Peace." Mr. Carnegie allowed himself a fling at naval, ex tension, sneering openly at the policy of building dreadnaughts. "We have by agreement with Can ada, upon our inland seas, only two little vessels," said he. "One flies the stars and stripes, the other the Union Jack. Each is of 200 tons burden. They are the most powerful vessels that Britain or our own navy is ever likely to possess, since for a century they have preserved the peace between the two branches of the North American people, never firing a shot except in kindness or courtesy." Mr. Carnegie delved into the scriptures and into ancient history to prove the wickedness of war, ending his speech with: "We must never fail, in season and out of season, day and night, to keep befoiv t:.e people the truth that compared with men killing men there is no evil, no savagery. It is the crime of crimes." "'.; Death of Mrs. Martha Lumley.

CATABKH FAR-REACHING BLOOD DISORDER Even in its early stages Catarrh is almost intolerable, caused by the stuffy feeling in the nose, the buzzing noises in the ears, the continual "hawking and spitting" difficult breathing, etc. But when the blood becomes thoroughly polluted from the catarrhal matter, the inflammation extends to the bronchial tubes, causing hoarseness, and often an aggravating cough ; the stomach is affected, resulting in dyspepsia, loss of appetite and strength, and gradually all the mucous membranes of the body become dis eased and the system upset and deranged. Frequently the kidneys and bladder are attacked, and the constant passage of impure blood through the lungs, diseases these important members, and Catarrh terminates in Con sumption. Catarrh is a deep-seated blood disease, and must be treated con stitutionally, for it is beyond the reach of local treatment. S. S.
