" '' Rev. Father Dominic, O. S. B., Of
, ; St Benedict's Abbey, Mount Angel, has
i given to the public another . musical
' gem, "Nature's Morning Hymn." a can
i tata for sojo voices, chorus and orches
tra, and of which musicians who have
, , had ppportunlty to see the score speak
. very enthusiastically.
Frederick W, Goodrich, in charge of
the music at the cathedral In this city,
' in the Cathollo Sentinel of last week
f gives the following review of the latest
creation f the modest composer:
i"The beautiful words of the cantata
' . are the. lovely poem' by - the ' Oregon
?f poetess, -Ella- Higglnson, and they in
. themselves are an inspiration to write
' fine music. Father Dominic is known
to the humblest lover of music in this
V state as the'-eomposer of "Beauftiful
Willamette," and those who were nrlv
ileged to witness the grand ovation ac
corded to the reverend father after the
performance by the great Portland fes
tival ehorus at the A-T-P Exposition
last. year Jwlll be -doubly -interested tn
:f. this latest product of his genius." ;
J - "Tha work is much more mature in
' . style and workmanship than the above
v mentioned setting of 'Sara Simpson's
' poem, the modern feeling is more ap
! parent, the harmonic . treatment - and
. modulation mora bold than in any pre
' vloua work. The orchestration, as far
as one can Judge from, the indications
in tna vocai score, is tun of color,
, while the vocal writing shows an ac
; curate knowledge of the capabilities of
, lbt human voice. The part writing in
-many places is elaborate, ' and all the
r devices of contrapuntal imitation are
- orougnt into use. . The work opens with
' a charming orchestral introduction of
20 measures leading to the first lead
' ing subject announced in four part har
; mony by the sopranos and altos, to
me woraa, "spring Up In the East, O
Sun." A second theme soon follows in
1 the bass to the words. "And through
thy golden-noted song," leading into a
burst of magnificent harmony- a few
Dars laier. tm second theme works up
f to a " grand climax. The solo - voices
then enter with delicate orchestral ac
: companiment, the passage for the an.
prano being particularly graceful. A
portion or tne second theme again In
produces the chorus, this time in four
- - part - harmony - for tenors and basses.
; The repetition of the opening theme
brings back the voices as at first," and
,a recapitulation of the second subject
" brings the work to a triumphal close.
'The work is scored for a moderate
ly sised orchestra, and it is to be hoped
that we shall gbon havathe opportunity
t of hearing it rendered by a competent
r chorus and orchestra." :

" f ARK TWAIN'S SPEECHES,"
M
with a preface by Mark
Twain, and an introduction
by W. D. Howells. Mr.
Howells in his Introduction
Interestingly says: "These speeches
win address themselves to the minds
and hearts of those who read them.
but not with the effect they had, with
those who heard them;' Clemens him
self would have said, not with half
the effect. Ihave noted elsewhere how
he always held that the actor doubled
the value of the author's words; and
he was a great, actor as well as a great
author. . He was a most consummate
actor, with, this difference from other
actors, that be was theflrst to know
the thoughts and Invent the fancies to
which his voice and action gave the
color - of life. Representation Is tha
art ot otner actors; his art was creat
ive as well as representative; it was
nothing at second hand. I never heard
Clemens speak when I thought' he quite
failed; some burst r spurt redeemed
him. when he seemed flagging short of
tha ma I an A nrhiuui. .1.. w..-Ih '4h
running he came in ahead. His near
failures were the error of a rare trust
to the spontaneity . in which other
speakers confide, or are believed to con
fide, when they are on their feet He
knew that from, the beginning of ora
tory . the orators spontaneity was f or
the silence , and solitude of , the closet
where he mused his words to an. im
agined audience; that this was the use
of orators from .'Demosthenes and
Cicero up and down. He studied every
word , and - syllable; ; and memorized
them by a system of mnemonics
peculiar to ' himself, consisting of an
arbitrary arrangement of thlngspn a
table-rknlves, forks,' saltcellars Ink
stands, pens, boxes or whatever was at
handwhlch stood ; for points t and
clauses and climaxes,: and were at once
Indelible diction and constant sugges.
tion. He studied every tone and every
gesture and forecast the result with the
peal -audience from lta rimiltn with that
f Imaginary audience. Therefore, it was
beautiful to see him and to hear him:
he rejoiced in the pleasure it gave him
and the blows of surprise which he
dealt; and because he had his end tn
mind,- he knew when to stop. I have
been talking of his method and man
ner;, the matter the reader has before
him; and It Is good, matter, glad,
honest, kind, Just", -
And - then Mark Twain in his own
inimitable way has written of this
matter; . : .'- . .' ' '. - ".
"If I were to sell the reader a barrel
Dm molasses, and he, Instead of sweet
ening his substantial dinner with the
same mt Judicious intervals, should eat
the entire barrel at one sitting and
then abuse' mo for making him sick,
I j would say that he deserved to be
made sick for not knowing any better
how to utilize the blessings this world
affords. And If I soil the reader this
volume of nonsense and he, Instead of
seasoning his graver : reading With a
chapter of it now and then, when his
mind demands such relaxation, unwise

chapters of it at a single sitting, he
will deserve to be nauseated, and he
will have nobody to blame but himself

"There is no more sin tel publish an

the customer whether he will injure
himself by means of either, or will de

they will afford him if he suses their
possibilities Judiciously.
The book contains "something over
100 speeches and addresses and covers
practically a -period of more than half
the , author's life time. Some of his
very earliest are included while others
were given when he was very near the
end of his earthly career. The ver
satility of the man is shown for they
are on every conceivable subject under
the sun, and what is a still more re
markable characteristic is, that he
never , repeats himself. " ; This was not
only remarkable In his utterances but,
In all his writings he was fresh and
orlelnal: one never read his books with
the feeling that they would know ex
actly - what Joke or witticism he was
going to perpetrate on the next page.
If one had never read another word
that Mark Twain has said or written
outside of this book, it would be
enough to give one an illuminating
view, a broad conception, and a last
ing wonder and admiration for the rare
humor, the still rarer wit and genial
wholesomeness of the man. Mark Twain,
like all great men. had his enemies,
and his traducers - who sent their
poisonous shafts into his life and char
acter, but he withstood them all, and
departing lef La unique, impression, on
the world, of letters, which ages will
never obliterate. The well selected li

tend not to enjoy In real life, while,
In fact, they are the kind everybody

It-la a story wherein- one girl and
two men prove their strength and power
to Overcome circumstances, but at the

fathers. It is a story of compelling in

U almost able to forgive the one un
forgivable weakness of the plot. The
weakness is where the brother and sis
ter, Ignorant of their relation to one
another, or their own Identity, fall In
love with each other. Unlike the au
thor's analytical method of treating
things she does not explain, or account
for the attraction they feel fop each
other, nbr does she dwell upon this
feature beyond the fact that they were
In lave with each other. . The author
does not in the least seem ' to concern
herself with what the-outcome of this
condition would have been, if clrcum;
stances had not revealed their identity
and true relationship. But then It is
the author's privilege to allow the read
er to guess, and her license to know
and not tell if she don't wish to. -Aside
from this one unsatisfactory compli

acters well drawn and the style most

'"The North Pole, Its Discovery Jn
1909." by Robert E. PearyIt can now
be stated with reasonable certainty that
Commander Peary's book under the
above title will bo ready for publication
In September. Many books are called
unique, this one Is so In the fullest sense
of -tho word. It tells how for the first
time, and once for all, the final story
of the discovery of the North Pole. ... It
can havo no competitors, no successors,
The book itself is by no means a mero
reprint of. a magasine serial. Much ad
ditional work has been put upon it so
that the already Impressive story has
assumed a form which will distinguish
It from other books of exploration as
much by intrinsic excellence as by Its
subject - ' ' h
The illustrations of Commander
Peary's book will bo noteworthy. The
complete set of 106 was selected from
a wealth of photographs comprising
about 1600 negatives. Eight of the
pictures will be presented In full col
ors. Six are enlargements colored by
the artist ' who, with Commander
Peary'a supervision, prepared the excel
lent lantern slides used In his lectures.
The seventh is a "Stellar. Projection,"
showing the relation of the Polar sea
to the various continents. The eighth
Is a new portrait of the explorer in his
actual North Pole furs, made especially
for the book and appearang nowhere
previously. VThe black and white en
gravings form a . well balanced exhibit
showjng typical features of the land
and sea In the Arctic regions, the pro
cesses used In traversing them and the
animals and birds of the region. Spe

sledge Journey from Cape Columbia, to
the Pole and back. Pictures of a .per

were hardly of the same nature, the
incidents of tho book are much as might
have happened under the given condi

lands of romance,, where people act on
! impulse and with little regard for the
law oi aavancea, civilisation, wnere
their own desires are concerned. The

In "The Russian Road to China"
(Houghton, Mifflin & Co.), Lindon
Bates Jr., tells how the first tea was
sent from China to Russia in 1656
as a present from the Yellow Czar to
the, White Czar with the message -"In
token of our especial good will we send
gifts in return for your trlbute.' This
caused a commotion which n.rly
closed the newly opened route to a ?om-
merclar conquest of the east. But it
was not long before tea became Rus
sia's national drink. Mr. Bates sums
up the present situation as regards
Russia's advancement: Down the an
cient Klahta . road lies a last aveUne
of advance. Eastward Is Manchuria,
where artillery and science grappling
must aeciae tne aay witn Japan.
Southward is India, where England's
guarded gateway among the hills can be
opened from behind. But into Mongolia
shall fate decree that the yellow capped
Cossacks, drafted from Russia's Mongol
BurlatB, must lead. once more the nation
absorbing march of the White, Czar, For
another memorable ride, shall Cossacks,
who on their shaggy ponies led the long
conquering way; across the continent
yet mount and take the road to China?
