deception of German and Italian
Opera at the Metropolis
IN TEE ENGLISH LANGUAGE NEXT.
The
Eerival of Gilbert and Sullivan's
Topular Productions.
ANOTHER BECITAL BT OTTO HEGNER
The close of the season of German Opera
at the Kew York Metropolitan brines the
usual counting up of results, with a view
to the future policy of that leading musical
institution ol the country. According to
the ficures given by that most able and re
liable c;l-ic, Mr. H. E. Krehbiel, of the
Xri&une, the 37 performances of operas
by AVagner brought in ?121,568 70 as
against 583,076 by the 30 perlormances of
other composers' works, making the difier
ence in average receipts favor "Wagner by
?516 45 a performance. These and other
results reckoned up leave no doubt that
much the same policy will be followed next
season. Great credit is dueManager Stanton
and Conductor Seidl for placing our
metropolis in line with, if not ahead of, the
operatic centers of the Old "World.
Last Monday Abbey's big Italian Opera
Company with Palti, Tamagno and the rest
stepped into the shoes of the Teutons. It is
a notable fact and one of much credit to the
healthy, liberal taste of the people that
alter spending over $200,000 on the 67 operas
in German they had subscribed
by the Thursday previous to its opening
5120,000 lor the four weeks' season
of oDera in Italian. The conditions are too
widely different to institute any comparison
between the figures: none such is intended.
The gre it tact is ihat the representative Amer
ican pubic- cares enough for opera ner se to
pay hund ds of thousands of dollars for really
Rood performances, quite irrespective of
school, language and nationality.
What, then, will the public give for adequate
performances in its own language? The giving
of Warner's operas in German before an En-
lish-speaking audience Is a curious instance
of propacandlsm in the face of one
of the cardinal principles Intended to
be propagated. Full comprehension of
t lie words junc or declaimed is of the very
eenrc of the appreciating of Wagner's work
nchtly. Tliis is true of all true opera and is
one of the aesthetic principles of which every
body cau see the importance. The prerequisite
singers who can sing English intelligibly
will come with increasing cultivation of the
field.
A promising attempt to popularize and make
permanent errand opera in English was begun
in New York last Monday at the Grand Opera
House. .Martha." "Faust." "Carmen." 'Bo
hemian Girl." "11 Troxatore." "JIaritana" and
"The Euchantress" (lialfe) are to be sung
in succession, each running one week.
Popular nnces rule this English opera season,
whicn. while it cannot, of course, equal the
pomp and circumstance of its fashionable for
eign rnalf, will, nevertheless, help materially
in bringing about a demand on the part of the
people for grand opera in English at least as
good as that out of which the Carl Rosa Opera
Companj coins so many pounds sterling each
lea'on.
The great celebration in 1892 of the discovery
of America ought to bring about in some way
the discovery of the American composer, as
one of the four-century plants out of the new
soil. A possibility in this direction lies in a
new opera being written by Mr. Homer A.
Moore, the well-Xnown operatic baritone,
of Cleveland, who sang in concert
here last eek. Haying already penned several
operatic scores, Mr. Moore is now essaying the
theme "Columbus," with direct view toward
the World's Fair. He has submitted an out
line of bis contemplated work to the Chicago
Committee, ard has met with hearty encourage
ment from tnem. His plans, in case the work
is definitely accepted, are large cnongh to as
sure its worthy prodnction as a prominent feat
ure of the great celebration.
Whatever the outcome of this particular pro
posal may be.it is the plain dutv of the man
agement of the fair to make full "provision for
representing this nation's original musical
work in the fullest and best wav. It must be
planned early if at all. Good music is a bloom
or slow crowth. even if the plant has had four
centuries of existence.
.
The strong vitality of the Gilbert & Sullivan
operettas has been amply attested by the
crowded houses at the Grand Opera House
last week, gathered to witness the revivals of
"Pinafore," "Mikado" and "Pirates of Pen
zance" by J. C. DufTl company.
It is one of the great many disadvantages of
our whole system of star opera on wheels, as
contrasted with the European opera by perma
nent stock companies, that the American pub
lic is generally compelled to pass snap-judgment
on a work. A troupe comes
along and gives an opera one or
two nights, maybe a week; after that
the public is likely to have no further chance
to hear it again that season, maybe never bas
another chance. Our opinions must, therefore
be nothing but first impressions onlv or at
most scattering impressions. The frame of
mind of the opera habitue abroad,
who goes regularly and hears the same
work as often as lie cares to
and at short intervals, is verv different. Tne
beauties grow on him good things always do
and he gets a natural, complete, artistic view
of the work. Instead of the capricious, superfi
cial and sensational impression felt by the
American auditor.
An operatic revival with us is, therefore, in
reality only a remote approximation to the
state of affairs prevalent in older art centers.
It would be better if it were not regarded as
something phenomenal. It is what every opera
worth giving at all should naturally have
simply a chance for people to judge it after
several hearings.
The many favorable verdicts in past
years rendered bj Pittsburg's public upon the
Gilbert fc bulllvan operas were confirmed
absolutely last week. On Mr. Duffs
productions much well deserved praise
has been lavished bv the unanimous
voice of the press. The extraordinarily
large, well-balanced and well-trained chorus,
the augmented orchestra, the superb stage
setting, with the singing and acting of Miss
Baudet, Miss Scars Miss Post. Mr. McWilliams
Mr. Bell and Mr. Bassettare the points deserv
ing of especial distinction. More of the same
kind will be most welcome next season.
Dr. Hans Von Buelow made his American
reutre with the New York Symphony Society's
public rehearsal on Triday afternoon. Apropos
of his expected appearance here. April 25, the
following quartet til characteristic anecdotes
at least three parts fresh will be of interest:
As a proot of Von Buelow's unceasing efforts
for the promotion of his art as well as of his
noble and generous character may be cited the
fact that when Richard Wagner was collecting
funds for the theater at Bayreuth Von Buelow,
without receiving 1 cnt of pay, traveled for a
whole year with bis famous orchestra through
Europe, giving concerts in all the principal
cities, the entire proceeds of which were
donated tn the fund for Bavrenth.
During Von Bue ow's visit to America last
year, a lady handed him a piece of music
which she had composed and on wnich she de
sired to obtain the master's opinion. The com
position was entitled "Ob. Lord, Hear My
Prayer.1" Buelow looked it through and wrote
under the title. "He may, if jou stop sinning
like this." r b
On one occasion when he appeared as soloist
In one of his orchestra concerts in Melnincen.
the incessant chatter in the first row so an
noyed him, that he stooped suddenly in the
middle of a Beethoven bonata and turning to
the ladies said with a bow and smile. "I hope I
don'Ulisturb you, ladies."
Bnelow dislikes having any one present
when be is rehearsing his orchestra. One of
the ladies at the Court of Meinengen once ob
tained admittance to the concert hall, and Von
Buelow.not desiring to insult the lady.resorted
to the followinc expedient means to rid him
self of her company: As soon as the lady had
comfortably settled herself in one of the boxes,
Bnelow said: "We will now have a pri
vate rehearsal of the bassoon,"
end commenced beating time. It so
happened that this instrument had but one
note to play every sixteenth bar, but Buelow
kept on beating time as if the whole orchestra
was playing. By the time the basson had
reached the sixth note, that is. the ninety-sixth
bar. the lady, entirely disgusted, left the hall,
and Bnelow resumed his rehearsal with the full
orchestra.
The return recital by young Otto Hegner will
be welcomed by all who beard him here a few
weeks ago and by many others who missed tbe
Wunder-Kmd on his former appearances. It

Me. W. n. T. Aborx and his pupils gave a
high class concert at Beaver Female College on
Friday evening. Miss Elsie O'Neal, of Alle
rhenv. and Miss Josephine Rumberger, of
Pittsburjr, rlcured upon tho programme. The
St. Cecilia Society sang Schumann's "Gypsies."
Kubinsiein's "Water Kjmph," andConcone's
"Fond Hearts."
Mes. J. Sharp McDonald, Misses Alice M.
Reed, Lulu B. Orcutt, Emma Hodkinson, Sadie
Chalmers, Messrs. G. Gilli, V. S. Weeden,
Frank Ammon, Charles F Harris and Mark
Porritt, and the Poco-a-Poco Orchestra, under
Mrs. Dr. J. S. Walters, were all announced to
take part in a concert for the benefit of the
Soldiers' Widows' Home, at U. V. L. Hall, last
Monday evening.
The Philharmonic Society made some money
by the recent concert In Old City Hall and pro
ceeded, at Friday's rehearsal, to "blow it in"
right royally. (The slang will be forgiven in
speaking of a brass band.) President David
son had no sooner presented Mr. Dan M. Bul
lock with a handsome gold badge in the name
of the society than Vice President Imhoff did
as much for him. Thereupon some one else
handed Director Kirk a roll of filthy lucre done
up in an envelope, so as not to soil" his hands;
and everybody made a speech, ate, drank and
was merry.
Miss Rosa Lixde (Mrs. Schaarscbmidt)
seems determined to make hay while the Paris
snn shines. She is taking nine lessons a week
over there; three each in singing, acting and
French. lime. Viardot-Garcia, the famous
singing teacher, expresses herself enthusiastic
ally over her new pupil and proposes to have
her sing soon before the directors of the Grand
Opera. The Paris opera may not be the place
where all good singers in France go when they
die, but it certainly is the heaven of ambition
for most of them. Miss Linde, however, com
pares it unfavorably with tho Now York Metro
politan. Me. Frank Ammon sang the other day for
"Honest Little Emma," and got much praise
for his fresh, young bass, some good advice,
and a broad hint ot what the future might
offer in the way of an engagement with her
troupe. Miss Abbott may be a better hand at
bass-fishing than at singinjr opera: anyway, the
best advice to the fish sighting her bait is,
"Don't." Mr. Ammon has too much talent to
be thrown aw ay on mock opera. He had better
gain admission to the bar and spend his time
whistling for clients than go singing In Abbott
opera so far as the good of the country is con
cerned. Manager Foster, of the ci-devant Boston
Ideals, seems to be repeating in the South the
tactics he adonted here last season in dealing
with his creditor tenor. Chevalier Edward
Scovel. The doughty Chevalier having levied
an attachment in Nashville for J1.000, part of
his overdue salary, the gallant Colonel forth
with made a great show of "discharging" him
and then rushed into print with a variety of as
sertions and lntiendoes calculated to injure
the tenor's reputation as spread by the com
pany's own advance agents, southern press
comments, however, turn tho Foster onslaught
into a boomerang as usual.
At the anniversary concert given by Acme
Council, No. 219, Jr. O. U. A. M. on Friday
evening in Odd Fellows' Hall, Southside, the
prime attractions were Mrs. S. C. Ford and
Mr. Homer A. Moore, widely known singers
hailing from Cleveland. Mrs. Ford sang the
"Seguidilla" air from "Carmen" and three of
Ethclbert Nevin's loveliest songs, besides tak
ing part with Mr. Moore in Henschel's beauti
ful duet "Gondoliera." Mr. Moore also sang
the baritone air from Gounod's "Queen of
Sheba"' and Bradsky's "Thou Art My All."
Mr. Carl rtetter, the Mandoline Troubadours
and Toerge's Orchestra completed the musical
programme.
Mb. Harby B. Bbockett has been en
gaged to sing the role of Prince Henry in Sul
livan's "Golden Legend," to be sung by the
Buffalo Vocal Society. June 12 and 13. It is a
pity that Pittsburg has been given no chance
to hear this representative cantata by the com
poser of "Pianaforc." This city has always
miuhii iud uciucsi apjjreuiaiiuo loromnvan 8
musicianly work iu tbe limited sphere of
operetta and would beyond a doubt be glad to
hear a late work of his upon the higher musi
cal plane. The Mozart Club commenced its
career with Sullivan's "Prodigal Son" a dozen
years ago; to give the "Golden Legend" at an
early date now wonld not be unfair to other
composers.

A FLAG NOW FLOATS
Over Mucklerat Schoolhouse, Despite
Threatened Objections.
MECHANICS MAKCI1 THROUGH MUD,
And FJy the Stars and Stripes, Undeterred
by Hostile Avowals.
A PEACEABLE OCCASION, AFTER ALL
The American flag over which such a sen
sation was raised was presented to the di
rectors of the public school at Mucklerat
yesterday afternoon. The presentation was
made bv 30 members of Allegheny Vallev
Council of the Senior Order of American
Mechanics, of Swissvale. The council
turned out in full force and was accom
panied by 250 members of both the Junior
and Senior orders from Braddock, Wilkins
bnrg, East End and tbe city proper.
The patriotic Americans walked all the
way from Swissvale station to Mucklerat, in
Sterrett township, a distance of about three
miles, through the mud, and arrived there
about 3 o'clock. They were unarmed ex
cept with the determination that the flag,
which bad already been accepted by the
board of the Mucklerat school, should be
hoisted and be allowed to float iu the
breezes. They had accepted the advice of
cooler heads in the order, and went out sim
ply to present the flag in a quiet, orderly
manner, and not to raise or participate in a
quarrel with anyone who might offer resist
ance. NO DISTURBANCE EAISED.
Happily nothing happened to create a
disturbance. A large number of the
Mucklerat residents turned out to watch
the proceedings, but, outside of a few radi
cal remarks which might be expected from
people with extremely opposite views, the
spectators had little to say.
It was reported in the city yesterday that
the original difficulty had arisen over the
fact that the school sessions were held in a
parochial school building. This was not
possible, as there is no parochial
school at Mucklerat. A committee
of Allegheny Valley Council went to
Mucklerat a week ago yesterday
and informed, the school board of
their intentions. The board very graciously
accepted the offer of the flag and agreed that
it should be raised. The objectors were con
fined to a few hot-headed people who made
the assertion that it should not go up. This
was the original inception of the trouble,
the reports of which grew to very large pro
portions among both the mechanics and the
Mucklerat citizens.
Whether the flag will be allowed to re
main on the schoolhouse or not remains to
be seen. The Mechanics have put it up and
if any harm comes to it from whatever un
lawful source, the law will be invoked in an
orderly manner.
THE FORCES CAUTIONED.
State Vice Councillor Stephen Collins
went to Swissvale and met the party just as
it was about to start toward Mucklerat with
the handsome flag, 8x12, with the stars
brought up to date as regards number. He
requested the Junior Order men in the
crowd to be careful of their actions, and the
the Senior Order men, who were largely in
the majority, volunteered to see that there
was no recourse to violence unless the
provocation was very great. The muddy
road lying between Mucklerat and Swiss
vale did not at all daunt the patriotism of
the crowd, and the trip was made without
incident.
Letters have been received by The Dis
patch claiming that the same roof shel
tered the parochial and public schools. In
vestigation shows that the Wilkins town
ship public school building is the spot
where the original trouble occurred.
ANXIOUS TO COME IN.
Many of the CItlzeas of Reserve Township
Want to Join Allegheny.
Councilman Christ Detzel, of Allegheny,
has been very busy the past few days circu
lating a petition among the residents of
Reserve township for annexation to Alle
gheny. There are quite a number who have
signed tbe petition, in fact about three-fifths
of the whole number in the township are
signers, and if several more signatures are
secured, enough for a good measure, the
township will be annexed. Tbe para
mount reason for Mr. Detzel's work, how
ever, is not that the city's area or
population shall be increased, bnt
that the water supply of the
township mav not be cut off. This may
occur ou next Tuesday, according to a re
cent ordinance passed in Allegheny Coun
cils. By it the Superintendent of the Water
Works was instructed to discontinue the
supply of water to residents of Reserve after
April 1.
At the time of the passage of the ordi
nance it was suggested that the residents of
the district" wished to come into the city
with a few exceptions, and there were manv
objections to the ordinance, as by its
operation the neighborhood wonld be
deprived of water lor individual consump
tion as well as for protection against fire.
There is a section of the township along the
east side of East street about half a mile
long that is built up solidly, and the people
living there are all in favor of annexation.
They argue that by it they will be afforded
paved streets, proper sewerage and a good
fire service.
Charged With Embezzlement.
Walter S. tTnks, formerly a salesman for
Heinz Bros. & Co., is a defendant in a case
before Alderman Succop, on a charge of
embezzlement. It is alleged that he appro
priated between 530 to 540 belonging to the
firm.
That
Tired Feeling
Has never been more prevalent or more pros
trating than now. The winter has been mild
and unhealthful, influenza epidemic and fevers
have visited neatly all our homes, leaving about
everybody in a weak, tired-out, languid con
dition. Tbe usefulness of Hood's Sarsaparilla
is thus made greater than ever, for it is abso
lutely unequaled as a building up, strengthen
ing medicine. Try it ana you will realize its
recuperative powers.
"I was very much run down in health, had no
strength and no inclination to do anything. I
have been taking Hood's Sarsaparilla and that
tired feeling has left me. my appetite has re
turned, I am liko a new man " Chauncey

A WANT SUPPLIED.
Where bilious diseases prevail there has lone
been felt the need of a medicine that would act
specifically on the liver, be safe from bad after
effects, and yet so simple that it might be used
by anyone. Dr. Tutt's Pills supply this want.
No family should be without them.
A PROCLAMATION.
Dr. I. Guy Lewis, of Fulton, Ark., writes:
"One year ago I was taken sick, a friend arcned
so strongly in favor of Tutt's Pills that I was
indnced to use them. Never did medicine have
a happier effect. After a practice of a quarter
of a centnry. I proclaim them the best anti
bilious medicine ever used, I have prescribed
them in txry practice ever since, with the best
results."
