Saint-Saenthe renowned French who is in this country for the purpose organist, of giving a series of recitals, found himself ui against a hard proposition when he essayed ir play an American organ. The venerable organ 1st is 71 years old, and ho found it hard to lea-- n the American Instrument. It was said that lu was Instructed by Scott Wheeler, the organist oi Plymouth church, who is himself one of the best organists In New York city, if not in the couutrj Mr. Wheeler said that it was hardly fair to say that he bad Instructed the famous organist M. Saint-Saenwas somewhat discouraged on be ginning his tour, and he was told that if he ecu') not play the Plymouth organ he could not L many of the American instruments, for the I !y mouth organ Is one oi the most complete in the country.

Salnt-Sncn- s found especial difficulty in mastering tbe pedals of the American insmi ment, but he is understood to have mastered the essential points in the dif ference of construction and to have goue on his way rejoicing. M. Saint-Saen- s is more of a composer than he is an executant, and ho is better known by his works than by his playing, although he can play a mini her of instruments. He has appeared at Carnegie hall, in Manhattan, but here he played the piano with tho orchestra. He is to visit all the large cities of the United States. It Is probable that he will also conduct tho rendering of some of his own compostions. The French organist has probably heard of the annoying Incident which happened to his great compatriot, Guilmant, In the New York Avenue M. E. church, two or three years ago. The organ in this church is regarded as one of the finest Instruments In the United States, and It was built at large expense. Guilmant gave two recitals there. The first went off all right, but at the second one, the large auditorium being filled in every part, the fine Instrument gave out right In the middle of the playing by Guilmant of one of his celebrated pieces, and tbe great organist was In a pet in a second. Someone went upon the platform and asked It there was anyone in tbe audience who knew how to get over the trouble. Some one volunteered to get the big organ going again, and Guilmant finished bis recital without further hindrance. It Is related of Dudley Buck that he had his own troubles when the beautiful new organ was installed In the Church of the Holy Trinity and it was doubtful for some time whether he could be induced to play the Instrument on the first Sunday It was ready for use The famous American composer and organist found his way to the organ loft morning and evening for a week or two, putting in extra hours mastering the Btops and electrical appliances, but he at last, through many brave trials, mastered the Instrument perfectly and long played upon it. s i d MAY HEAP CHICAGO UNIVERSITY Dr. Harry sal-ar- id ao-cor- ifc Autu Prufauitij Paraiip (5ijc (Surat n 1 1 tat.

It The cattle Industry in Montana has been especially prosperous during the present year as a result of abundant rains and consequent good range and plenty of water in both stream and pool. Last year the state of Montana had acrec. in spring wheat alone, and the average of this area was a bushels per yield of twenty-seveacre, and all other crops yield in pro portion. There are now over 15,000 miners at work In the mines of Montana, and during the past year there have been l but 52 fatal and 43 accidents, making a record of safe mining that Is hard to beat. A meeting will be held at Rawlins, Jnauary 26, between stockmen and A. F.
