DEK0VEN TO COMPOSE
DRAMA MASQUE MUSIC
Musician Sees Great Possibilities
for Educational Uplift in Uni
versity of Penna. Experiment
Reginald ) Koven. comnoser. will wrlle
thu music for the Masque of American
Drama, the big outdoor spectacle to be
presented In M.iy at tho Botanical Hardens.
Negotiations have been completed between
Mr. De Koven and heads of the Masque, and
the signature of the author of 'The Can
terbury Pilgrims" and "Robin Hood" will
be alllxcd to a contract some time today.
Tho selection of Mr. Do Koven as the
man to whom w 111 bo Intrusted tho hard
task of writing the inulc for tho dances
and other parts of the Musque was made
only after considerable trouble A'lotor Her
bert was considered, but It was discovered
that ho was foreign-born and as tho Masque
reflects the development of the spirit of
America It was decided to belect u native
torn composer in order to carry out to the
letter the central idea of the Masque. Do
Koven was chosen as the best of natlvo
candidates. ,
The composer visited tho Botanical Oar
dens and Inspected carefully the amphl
theatro where the pageant Is to be pie
scntcd, In order to Judge the acoustics of
the open-air theatre. The Masque Itself
bo believes to have great possibilities to
strike a note of true Amei Icanl.sm.
But the fenturo of the Masque, mi he told
Interviewers, was the great uplift in
education that was tcrtain to icsult from
getting moro than one-quarter of tho 'stu
dent body of tho University to participate
in the pageant In some way or other. It
means, in his opinion, a new step In edu
cation. "it means a developing Influence In edu
cation and the advancement from what
might be termed a scholastic standpoint,"
said Do Koven. "I think that, conceived
in the artistic spirit that It Is, the
Masque will render students of the Univer
sity in a move aiding the dianm, whether
musically or however expressed as nn edu
cational Influence."
"The action of tho faculty of the Univer
sity," he lemarked, "In heartily Indorsing
the students In this Masque Is correct, and
1 think that they aie right. That man is
really educated who knows his fellow man
and appreciates him. The Masque of Amer
ican drama through rubbing of elbows with
all classes of students will do this "
Do Koven outlined the plan by which he
alms to bring new Ideas In orchestration to
the musical hcore of the Mavque. Inci
dentally, he corrected popular and erro
neous impressions of Just what a Masque Is.
" "There aro possibilities in the Masque
In giving the public something that is
neither opera, nor comic opera, nor musical
comedy, but something that may be a
fresh development In musical entertainment,
I will conscientiously try to 1lluttrate the
text with such aids as orchestral accom
paniment nnd othej- effects which will bring
that home to the audelence. Tho spirit
of the Masquo Is one of education and nt
the same time conimemoiatlve. There is
no doubt about tho added effect, especially
in large spaces. I have often had the Idea
that musical drama could best be got with
continuous orchestration and dramatic ef
fect with musical Illustration. Theiw can
be no question that music goes beyond the
spoken word in effect. Any really dramatic
effect can be enhanced and made mme
plausible, not to say Intelligent, by the
addition of appropriate music.
"1 would like to Instruct the public as to
what the meaning of the Masque Is. and I
am rather of the opinion that the average
person thinks of the Masque as a masque
rade, which Is fur from the inherent mean
ing and Intended effect. The Masque, as I
interpret, Is tho folksong of the stage. As
the folksong Ih tho expression In music
of the emotional feeling of the people, so is
the Masquo fiom a diamutlc standpoint
on the stage a popular drairlatlc sentiment.
The Idea of the community Masque, such
as this will be, Is valuable as a means of
Instruction to the public In the real uplift
of the stage."

JLj n:
USS than thiee weeks after the exterml-
latiott of the Horde. Stern bad already
completed Important niensutes looking to
ward the tehabllitatloii of the colony.
The damago had been largely repaired.
Now only some half-dozen convuletcent
cases remained on the sick list What the
colony had lost In numbers It had gained
lit solldutlty and a tiuer lojalty than ever
befoie felt thete.
All the survlvots, now vastly mote faith
ful to the common c.iiikh than In the begin
ning, showed an eager longing to lay hold
of the impending pioblems with Stern, and
to labor faithfully for the fututo of tho
gieat undel taking.
The fishing, hunting and domestication of
wild animals all were leMtmed, and again
the sound of hummets and anvils clanked
through the caves.
Under Stem's dltectloii, half a domett men
crossed the pool In boats, descended the
north bank of tho liver, and got hold of
the cut bridge cables.
Stein shot a thin line over to them by
means of a bow and artow With this they
pulled a stouter cord actus", nnd finally a
sttong cable. All hands together hoon
brought the bridge once mote up the cliff,
where it was lashed to lt.s old moorings
Barring a few broken lloor-planks, easily
replaced, only slight damage had been done
One day's labor sufficed to put It in repair
again.
The patapet wi rebuilt and a wall con
sttucted across the end of the broken ter
lace. Work was begun on new cave dwell
ing", with great care not to weaken the
stiata and so Invite another dlsahter.
Stern, very vvlse by now In gauging the
harbailan mentality, undertook no direct
punishment of such as had been led away
by H'jemba But he gathered all the Folk
together in the palisade, and there cloe
to the mutely eloquent object-lesson of the
little cemetery lie made them a charweg, a
talk In their own speech.
"My people'" ctled he. erect and strong
befoie them allt "listen now, for this thing
e must know!
"The evil of your heatts, thinking to pie
vall agulnst me and the Uw. hath hi ought

against tho Law. and behold, many aie now
dead Innocent as well as guilty. The land
slide smote ye, and enemies came enemies
far mote teiriblo than the dread r.atiskaarn

and ye had all died with battle and dis
aster. Only my hand alone saved ye all
who btill live to breathe this uppei air.
"Men' Ve beheld mv doing with the
e.uthquake and the Horde' Ye beheld, too,
my answer to H".vemb.i, the evil man, the
rebel and traitor. Him e uw hut led,
bleeding, from the parapet! That was my
answer to his insolence' And If not he,
then who can ever sttuid ngalit"t me-'"
He paused, and swept them with his
glance, lettlng'the lesson sink deep home
Befoie him their eyes weie lowered; their
heads bowed; and through them all ran
muimurs of fear and supplication.
"My folk! Rightly might I be angered
with you, and lequlre saciiflce and still
more blood; but 1 um merciful I shall not
punish ; I shall only teach and guide and
help' Uor my heatt Is jour heart, and je

"But, hark ye now, and think, and Judge
for yourselves! Jf anv evet speak again of
rebellion, or of treason, and seek to break
the Law, on his head shall be the blood of
all. For sutely woe shall come again on
us In your own behalf I warn you. and e
shall be the Judges Now answer me, O my
Folk, what shall be done unto any who
rebels7"
"He shall die'" boomed the voice of
Zangatnott. The lov.il lighter, now lean and
gaunt with gieat labots. hut still powerful
t.llsed his coided hand on high "Of a
Until that man shall die'"
"What death?" cried Stein.
"Uveu the death of H'yemba ' Let him
be cast from the paiapet to death in the
white rushing river far below!"
AH echoed the cry; "Death to all
traitors, from the rock '"
"So be It, then," Stern concluded. "Ye
have spoken, and It shall he written as a
Law. From Execution Hock shall all con
spirators be cast. Now go '"
He dismissed them. While they departed
and filed down the tei races to their own
homes, he stood there with folded arms,
watching them very gravely The last one
vanished. He nodded
"They'll do now I" said he to himrelf.
"No more trouble from that source ! An
other milestone passed along the road of
self-control, self-government and com
munal spirit. Ah, but the road's a long ono
yet a long and hard and stony road to
follow!"
Next day Stern began making his plans
for the recovery of the lost aeroplane.
"This Is by far the most Important mat
ter now before the colony." he told Beatrice,
watching her tiurso the boy as they sat by
the Are, while outside the rain drummed
over cliff and canyon, hill and plain. "Our
very Ufa depends on keeping a free means
of communication open with the mother
country of the Folk, so to call it, and with
the city ruins that supply us with so many
necessary articles. No other form of trans
portation will do. At all hazards we must
have an aeroplane one at least, more
later. If possible,"
'"Of course." she answered ; "but why not
make one hre7 Dovyn there In your work
shop" '
"I haven't the equipment ye," he Inter
rupted; "nor yet the necery metal, the
wire, a hundred things. All that will come
in time when w get some mines to work
and (tart a tew blant-turnaces. But for the
present, the best and quickest thing to do
will be to )ook up the old machlncntgaln."
"But," sh objected, terrified at thought
or losing him again; "but I thourht.you said
the Hord wrecked UP ,

It, and heated It white-hot, which I don't
think thev had Intelligence enough to do,
In any event, what's left will serve mr as
a model for another mm blue I really think
I'll have to have a tty for II "
"Ob, Allan' You aren't going to ventuie
out into the wilderness again"
"Why not, dearest? You must remem
ber the forest Is all burned now; perltHps
for hundreds of mile.' And the Horde, the
one greatest pull that lias dogged us ever
Mine tbnso days in the tower, has been
swejit out with the besom of Hatne'-'
"Which has also surely destroed the
machine, even If they haven't'" sho ex
claimed. Using cvety possible argument to
discourage him
"I hardly think so," he Judged "You
see. I left It in a wide sand-batren. I
think, on the whole. It will pay me to make
the expedition Of coute, I shan't take
les than a dozen men to help me bring It
back what's left of It."
"But Allan, can you find jour way?"
"I've got to! That machine mnvt posi
tively bo lecovered! Otherwise we're totally
'ut off from the Abjss. Colonizing slops,
and all kinds of hell nwv break looe below
ground before I can build another machine
entire. There are no rallroadh tunning now
to the brink" he added nilllngl ; "and no
elevators to the basement of the world.
It's the old Paulllac again or nothing'"
Tho girl exhausted all her arguments and
euttiatlcs In vain Once Allan's mind was
definitely made up along the line of duty
ho went stialght forwaid, though the
heavens fell.
Four dajs later the expedition set out.
The party counted on being able to sup
plement their supplies with ttout. ba and
pickerel from countless untouched sit earns
They might, too. come Into wooded coun
try, if the fire had left any to northward,
and hero they knew game would be plenti
ful One thing seemed positive In that new
woild; starvation could not threaten.
"Forward, men"' cried be, taking the
lead with Zangamon.
Some minutes later Beatrice saw them
defiling over the long, shaking bridge.
Through her teais she watched them,
waving her baud to Allan-r-eveti making
the baby shake Its little hand as well
and thiowlng kisses to him, who leturned
them gaj'ly.
On tho far bank the pnity halted a min
ute to shout a few last wotds to the as
sembled colonists that lined the parapet
of the terrace
Then they turned, and, striking north
west, plunged boldly Into the burned and
blackened waste
Long after the marching column had
illsappeated over the crest of the second
hill Beatrice still watched lp on the
cliff top, with the poweiful telescope at
het eje, she followed the faint, dtlftlng
line of dust and ash that marked the line
of march.
