ARRIVAL OF THE JEW. BILL LEE.
He Octteth Up a Singing- Club.
How He Doeth It, and How They Sing.
Hilt, June 17, lHO'J.
Mr. Editor: The Great Jew, Bill Lee, arrived
lere safe and eouud (particularly the sound)
last Tuceday, and immediately went to work to
get his singers, like so many cattle, Into the
pound (particularly the pound), which embraced
the Common, and which was boarded np for the
occasion. I might add, from the difficulty I
experienced 'in getting board, that they had
taken all there was in the city.
Early on Tuesday morning
6
The RokIii Wnsron
began to drive up to the back door, and at ouce
twenty men commenced to shovel in rosiu for
the scrapers of cat-gut, of which there are some
four hundred. The mews has smiled upon the
Jew, Bill Lee, from his birth, and his earliest
music was that which he extracted from the
i i i . . i. . . i, i. ,i : .1 v . . .1
xiuueeiiuiu ctti; lllilt, llljvvutui, iiu UIU u u viu-
ing on its tail. The impressions of those days
were never really effaced from his memory, and
on the occasion of this sing he commissioned a
New England mechanic to get him up an instru
ment that should combine both
Wind and String Proportion,
and which I may say was successfully accom
plished in the above. 305 cats, each one day
older than the other, supplied the notes of the
most delicate shades of tone, from the short and
sharp tenor of the nine-days' kitten to the pro
longed baritone of a year-old Tommy. The in
strument was named the "Catawauler.'"
The freight train from Providence arrived
with parts of the trombone, and as soon as all
the pieces were got into the building, a gang of
workmen commenced putting it together. The
effect of this Instrument, when blowcd by steam,
was electrifying. Professor Crescendo has the
Contract for Working the Key.,
At eighteen dollars a note. It is not very profit
able, as he has to employ several men, who are
Btationod at different points iu the instrument,
and bring their dinners. It is a very dangerous
business, as a slip tit any time into oac of the
Talves would bo fatal to that note.
The feature of the occasion is the big drum,
and, like the nose on the Jew, a very prominent
feature It is, with this difference, that while you
"beat" the former, you "blow" the latter. The
drum is a most iugonious piece of architecture,
that has to be played by what is termed a "block
and fall," and is also dangerous. The players
take their position on the edge of the drum, and
raising up the drum-stick, let it fall like a pile
driver on the head. The concussion is so grsat
that It throws the players up in the air, and it
requires great practice to get down in time for
the next beat.
Tie most Interesting department is that of tho
j w with TUclr Un
and where three of tlito ancient people play npon
one Instrument, while the tongue is struck in
proper time with a triphammer, borrowed from
the Lowell Locomotive Work for the occasion.
This was an invention of an old do' merchant of
Chatham street, New York, and was adopted by
Mr. (illmore, provided he could get the chaps
with the gills to play it. . A number of New Bed
ford whalers, who had lived three and five years
at a time on ."hard-tack," had teeth fit for the
occasion, as the instruments could not bo made
of malleable Iron, but had to be of the birdcxt
steel. The music of theso harps was very sweet,
although many of the notes were regular jaw
breakers'. ' 1;
A very unique Invention 'by tlioladics of Bos
ton to add petal to tliii ' occasion was the Intro
duction of an Instrument called by the proprietor
HAVE PEPLt-J
Siinnkrnnla.
which was very simple in its construction. It
was nothing more nor less than the putting into
practice the old proverb that "A bird that can
sing, and won't sing, ought to be made to sing."
An advertisement went out from Nilcs' adver
tising agency headed "To the mothers of New
England," and went on to invite "all those
mothers who wanted peace in their families, and
at present did not have it, to bring up the
juvenile disturbers of the family peace to tho
Great Jew, Bill Lee, and he would inaugurate a
way to 'let us have peace' ut home." Accord
ingly, on the day set for rehearsal about six
hundred mothers, with their boys, ranging from
six to sixteen years of ago, presented them
selves to Mr. Eichberg, tho conductor of tho
choruses, who immediately put them in train
ing, as shown in the above sketch. Tho effect
was most striking particularly as regards the
utriking), and tho mothers so enjoyed it
that it was with dilllculty they could be per
suaded to hold up at tho proper beat. On tho
opening day they kept Umo most beautifully.
It was a moving night to see (500 maternal hands
raised high in the air, and, ut the signal from tho
leader's baton, nil of them come down in stern
resolve to do or die; and simultaneously to hear
the yell of COO juvenile voices in all degrees of
pain or anger, at the same time the cannon'
outside the building making one tremendous
report. The bubs of tho "Hub" have been in a
hubbub nbout it ever since.
The Trlanicln
was a big thing lu its way. Of course no iron
beater could be constructed and worked with
sufficient force to have tho proper effect, con
sequently the aid of Yo Ancient and Honorable
Artlllerie of Boston was called in. They uso
it as a target, and at every time a "strike" is
wanted ten 16-pounders are fired at it. The first
one that hits it knocks it out of the way, so that
the others can miss it. This arrangement works
admirably. Triangles iu Boston are no now
things: they are more common than squares,
particularly in the plan of the streets.
Towards the close of the sing is generally
brought in the fellows that do
The Anvil Clionix,
and they never fail to bring down tho house
that is, they would bring it down if it was not
already on the ground. They use altogether
sheet-iron music, and they can play anything.
At "old sledge" they are A 1. Ironically speak
ing, they have nerves of steel, and their music
is of the most cheerful des cription. One curi
ous thing was noticed. . During their perform
ance every car horse that passed the building
would immediately stop and hold up ono of his
legs, and always the oae on which there was no
shoe. This was noticed for several days, and
became such an inconvenience to the railroad
company that they intend keeping their horses
shod during tho existence of the sing.
Yesterday President Graut came into the
shanty, and got into a scrape right away. They
put him up among the fiddlers, and such a
scraping of feline intestines I suppose was never
before known. The General took out his hand
kerchief to wipe his nose. Mr. Gilmore mistook
itj for applause, when he gave the signal to
turn on all the steam. The "big drum," the
"spankeania," the cannon, and other wind
instruments joined in with tho rosin instru
ments, and such a diu was raised that the
General had to cry out for tho second time,
"Let vb have Pe Act!"
This h"'- '
.. uiwiiaicn will give you but a faint
Idea of the way the Jew, Bill Lee, taxed his In
genuity to get up something now for his cus
tomers, and how he succeeded.
Don't believe tho many ridiculous statements
uout him and his dub going the rounds of the
press. What I serd is entirely reliable. Others
write merely for sensation. In comparison to
mine they seem to ino to B Flat.
