That winning and gracerul boy, Otto
Hciner, has quite captivated musical circles
in Fittsburg. His playing in itself, with
its rare combination of feeling, finish and
skill, was enough to charm most of those
who heard it. And those who have got be
hind the scenes and seen more of the little
fellow himself have been yet more com
pletely conquered by his charming person
ality. All the incense of adulation burning
about him has not been able to cloud his
bright, naive, unaffected boyishness. Con
sidering the maturity of his stvle and his
grasp 01 musical ideas it is reaily remark
able that Otto Hegner, in other resiect, is
sind bears himselt as a simple boy, like .iny
other of his age. He is no forced, insipid
hot-hoytp product, but a hearty, wholesome.

It is that which shows his musical abili

From among a considerable accumulation of
musical publications more or less recently re
cen ed for renew, may be culled quite & num
ber likely to be of special interest to the read
ers of tills column
Mr. Ad. JI Koeister's Opns 2S comes to hand
in the shape of n collection of songs published
by H. Klcbor & Uro. under the title. Among
lioftcr " Eleven spcoimcns of Mr. Foerstcr's
florcscent mnse are included, and a Tery pretty
nosegay they make. 1 u o of the littlest,"Jn Blos
som 1 inie" and "On the Wild Rose Tree," are
also among the prettiest; both are fresh ana
spontaneous. riie Water ibpnte," which is
in the Hubinstcin idiom, aud "Among the
Hoses," following Greig, arc very cleerly
written. "Sunflowers" is modern and dramatic.
"Forgct-Me-Xot" is bright and cheery rather
too much so for the pensive poem. The tradi
tional ballad style is well caught in "The
Young Kose," as also In the beginning of the
"Old Proverb," which winds up quite dramat
ically . The Cradle bong.,' on the theme from
the "biegfned lihl." makes an interesting
study. A graceful, fluent lyric is formed out
r the " ioIcU." Better jet, along the same
line perhaps the choicest posy of the bunch
is "Luve in a Ko-ebush," a beautiful and ef
fects c sung, dedicated to Mrs. J ean Wallace-
Webster.
Altogether, to spend a pleasant half hour
with Mr. Foerster "Among Flowers" is sure to
Increase one's appreciation for the talent
Which has won for the genial rittsburger an
honorable position among the recognized com
posers of the country.
Among other publications from local pens
may be named Mr Gilden B. Broadberry's
song; "Remembrance," from the John Church
Company, Cincinnati. Though the accompani
ment is too heavily laden with octaves through
out, it is a melodious and pleasing ballad of the
popular order.
"In the Heavens Earth Reposes." while num
bered as Mr. Leo Ochmler's sixth opus, is be
lieved to be the first publication of this modest
young Pittsburger. It Is a simple, unassuming
song, and shows a gift from which more may
be expected some day. Especially creditable
in tlm fong is the manner in which the flowing
melody is varied from verso to verse without
changing its essential character.
An eminently usable series of organ pieces
can be found in the "Organists' Journal," pub
lished in 15 numbers by William E. Ashmall &
Co., of New York. Seven of them are now
nut, each containing several compositions.
French, English and German composers are
drawn on for the selections, which cover
quite a variety of stjlcs, but are
mostly suitable for church ue. Nearly
all come withm the range of but moderate diffi
culty. They seem to be carefully edited and
clearly printed Mr. Ashmall himself being an
organ plajcr and composer of some attain
ments The pre-ent growing interest in the
"King of Instruments" in this community
makes such a publication timely and welcome.
Mr. Ethelbert Kevin could scarce ask for a
better subject along the graceful, fanciful lice
in which he so excels than Eugeno Field's cute
and quaint "Dutch LulUby," telling how
"Wynken. Bljnken a"nd Jfod one night
Sailed off in a wooden shoe,
hailed on a river of misty light
Into a sea of dew."
Neither conld he desire a more becoming
typographical dress than tbatin which the Bos
ton Music Company has pnt this same "Dutch
Lollabj," as composed by Mr. Nevm (his onus
9) for soDrano boIo and chorns, with four-hand
piano accompaniment. Mr. Field and the pub
lic have also every reason to be satisfied with
the added charm gn en the verses in their ex
quisite setting bj the gifted ycung composer,
whom Pittsburg still claims as her own. Mr.
Nevin bas caught the spirit of the words to a
nicety: the sound does most faithfully echo the
sense in all its varied phases. There is musi
cianly four-part writing throughout, the
sonrano otiligato is grateful, ljing well tor the
voice, and the four-hand accompaniment is ex
ceedingly effect' e in both rhythmsand figures.
The Lullaby" lies completely outside the
beaten track, and there is small wonder that
Mr. It. J. Long, the able and alert conductor of
the Boston Cecilia "society, ordered copies for
their March concert before it hid been pub
lished a we k. Choruses in New York and San
Francisco have also underlined it already. Our
Mozart Club yesterday ordered copies for use
at their ballad concjrt to bo given in a few
weeks. For just such a programme it would
be hard to find a composition more appropriate
and effective than the "Dutch Lullaby."
, .
Mr. 1 evin's five songs. Op. 5, should have had
notice some time ago. Better late than never
-especially in the case of works with which
many will be glad to become acquainted. An
exquisitely dainty little lyric, one of the kind
that charms musician and layman alike, is "La
Chanson des Lavandieres." from Hugo's "Ruy
Bias." "Herbstgefuehl." also a one-stanza
song, is of just the opposite stripe: its intensity
would probably find appreciation among a dis
tinctly musical coterie and even there might be
some to cavil at the reiteration of the initial
phrase as a rather strained effect. The lyric
alamAn? ic .mI. m !.. .

sparkling setting of the "Haft Song," taken
from Margaret Deland's "Sunset on the Alle
gheny." Its ripnling accompaniment is es
pecially felicitous.
The most elaborate of the set is "Before the
Daybreak." Its somewhat turgid introduction
leads through a melting modulation (effective
modulations form a notable feature of this
song) into a sweet theme that runs thronghout
the accompaniment in various forms, quite in
dependent or the voice. The third stanza is
wrought up to a broad and powerful climax,
which subsides again most graciously into the
original tranquil theme. "Twas April!"
is the title of what is, probably, the
very best of these five songs. It
Is arch and gay, bnt with an ever-present un
dercurrent of passionate tenderness, almost
pathetic. The bright, free melody is repeated
with very slight modification from verse to
verse, but those slight modifications combine
with the remarkably significant accompani
ment to express directly and naturally the
varied shades of feeling of the text "Twas
Anriir' is an exceptionally tine song in every
way, not only skillful and musicianly in con
struction, but so expressive and spontaneous as
to command a ready appreciation by any cul
tured audience,
Crotchet! and Quavers.
The Weis Bros' Orchestra is expected to ap
pear In concert at Oberlin College, Ohio, before
the close of the month.
Me. Cakl Rettek has resigned his post as
conductor of the Frohslnn. and the negotia
tions witn Mr. Reese, of Iowa, have been taken
up again
Mb. Chaui.es F. Haeeis bas been chosen
director and bass for the quartet choir of
Bhady Avenue Baptist Church. Mrs. Bert
Saumgardner will be the soprano.
Mbs. 8, u. Fobd, soprano, and Mr. Homer
A. Moore, tenor both from Cleveland and both
enjoying high reputation have been engaged
for the concert to be given by Acme Council,
Jr. O. U. A M., on the Sontbside theSSth of this
month.
Me. Charles C. Meixok, organist, Mrs.W.
a Wolfe, soprano, Mr. H. B. Brockett, tenor,
and the Beethoven Quartet, piano and strings,
form the combination that will unlock musical
joys for the guests of the Allegheny Council oi
the Royal Arcanum on the 20th.
The Jardine organ in Trinity P. E. Church
will be tuned and put in thorough order for the
Easter programme by the organist of the
church, Mr. Leonard Wale?. Not many ofour
organists can attend to the "teeth of the organ
as a child once called the kejboard-and
doctor up its Inside as well.
At St Andrew's Episcopal Church, Ninth
street, a special musical service will be given
this evening at 7.30, when will be sungthe third
part of the oratorio of "The Captives of
Babjlon," following the admirable custom in
augurated by Mr. Web-ter some years ago of
giving an entire oratorio in successive parts
during the Lenten and Advent seasons.
Messes. G. Fishfr, A Beckert and F.
Dietz. of the Great Western Band, have re
ceived an offer from P. S. Gilmore. for the
coming season. Messrs. 0. Loeblich andC.
Nusser. traeling now with the Emma Juch
Opera Comptnv. under Ad. Neuendorf, report
success on the Pacific coast Good tonauctors
evidently appreciate the staff of which the
Great Western is composed.
The Philharmonic Society comes forward
with a popular concert at Old City Hall next
Thursday evening, for which "becasion Con
ductor T. r. Kirk has arranged one of his
usual rich and varied programmes. Mrs. Adah
S. Thomas, Miss Grace Miller. Miss Caroline
'-chmertz. Miss Jessie V. Long. Messrs. H. B.
Brockett, D. M. Bullock. Franz Ammon, E. A
Wall and Josenh H. Gittiusrs and the Mandolin
Troubadours will assist the band in making it
pleasant for all who "come down."
The Allegheny Musical Association gives its
first concert next Friday evening at Carnegie
Halk Benedict's cantata, "Legend of St
Cecilia," will be the piece de resistance for the
new chorus. Solo parts will be taken by Mrs.
W. B. Wolfe. Mrs. Marv R. Scott, Mr. F. J,
Bussman and Mr. John A Strouss. In the
miscellaneous part of the programme Miss
Elsie O'Neil, Mr. D. II Nuttall, Mr. W. S.
Wceden ana Mr. John A Bell will take part
Conductor V, A Laffcrty being in general
charge.
Ax amateur orchestra of good promise has
been formed, with Mr. C B. Stewart, the
clanonetist and singer, as director. Mr. btew
art, who is the manager of the small goods de
partment of Mr. S. Hamilton's music bonse,
is said to be quite a thorough musician,
and the new orchestra will no doubt be
well led. The number of members will be lim
ited. The members at present are Mr. Ed.
Schmertz, first violiu- Mr. Erwin Omohnndro,
second violin; Mr. Edward E. Omohundro,
first cornet; Mr. E. M. Hukill, Jr., second cor
net, and Mr. Charles C. Gray, piano. Mr.
Stewart in addition to leading, will play the
clarionet
According to the Western papers the re
cent disorganization o'f the so-called "Boston
Symphony Orchestral Club" was not entirely
amicable. It appears that the clnb wished to
get rid of its manager, Mr. Bachert, and not
vice versa, as was at first represented. The
club, with the exception of Mr. de Seve, the
violinist, has reorganized under the title of
"New Yors Harmonic Club" (a much more
honest title than the other, be it remarked),
and will proceed to give concerts under a new
management The charming Swedish singer.
Miss Augusta Obrstrom, will remain with the
new organization. Boston I'ost.
By the following London cable to The Dis
patch it seems that musical authorities are
being awakened to a part, at least, of the
"Mus. Doc." abuses current npon this side of
the ocean and on both sides of the
great lakes: "Delegates from Oxford, Cam
bridge, Durham, Dublin and Victoria Uni
icrsities. the Academy of Music and
the College of Music, have called
upon Lord Knutsford, Secretary of
State for the Colonies, and presented a protest
against Trinity College, of Toronto, granting
musical degrees in Great Britain. Lord Knuts
ford replied that Trinity College appeared to
have exceeded the powers conferred upon it by
its charter, and said he would take the opinions
of Crown lawyers on the subject
The following extract from a Dresden letter
by an Englishman to the London -Musical
World is good: "A dreadful thing is happen
ing in Dresden, an d indeed, tho court theaters
all over Germany aro suffering irom the same
complaint No, it is not influenza; that is bnt
an episode. Its name is Wagner. That obnox
ious genius has taken possession of all the
stages, and his are the only works which
bring full bonses. I am not romancing I am
speaking the sober trnth. In Dresden the
problem is daily becoming more serious.
When Wagner is not played the theater is
empty; the moment a Wagner drama is put up
every seat is sold. This is a grave situation.
You can't co on playing Wacner every night,
yet the public will come to nothing else. Tne
public themselves write letters to the papers
expostulating with themselves for staying away
from such masterpieces as The Prophet The
Ratcatcher." The Trumpeter,' etc., but they
stay away all the same."

Dr. Shrady Says:
The after effects of the epidemic (la grippe)
will be marked by feelings of prostration and a
lowering of the health tone," to recover from
which "will require tonics for variable periods."
The Best Tonic
You can take is Hood's Sarsapanlla, which, by
its peculiar reviving, strengthening qualities,
will lift you out of the dreary swamp of weak
ness and despair onto the firm rock of health
and strength. Do not delay, but take it now.
"Hood's Sarsapanlla purified my blood, gave
me strength, and overcame the headache and
dizziness, so that I am able to work again. I
recommend Hood's Sarsaparilla to others whose
blood is thin or impure, and who feel worn out
or run down." Ltjtiiek Nason, Lowell, Mass.

BOOTS, SHOES

MERCHANTS placing spring orders should not lose the opportunity of learning tho
lesson which an inspection ofour stock imparts.
OUR OPPORTUNITIES for buying are most extended and we study the styles and fit
of shoes most closely, for unless we cater properly to the pnblic and please them,
onr goods would become an incubus, and dead stock the rule.
OUR GOODS must be the proper thing in a large city like this. If we were not selling
the right kind, we would not be doing the largest wholesale as well as retail
trade.
SOME JOBBERS sell merely for a price, without regard to fitness of their goods. "Wa
study the fitness of things, and manage that nothing shall enter onr stock bnt
sellers GOOD, LIVE, QUICK AND PROFITABLE SELLERS.
THESE POINTS go to show that as retailers we are promoters of wholesale success. la
fact, these points are an advantage instead of a disadvantage, as soma of onr
competitors would have you believe.
IF WE BUY specially for the retail trade, and onr wholesale stock is a reflex of the
success in the retail, why are we not in better position to sell the proper thing to
the merchant who would be pleated to imitate onr example and make his store
tne howling success of his own town?
DROP IN and have a talk. We'll show yon some things which will do you good and
stimulate the trade yon are so anxions to boom.
