The cause of opera in the vernacular is
tnakinp decided progress. This is em
phatically as it should be; opera snnc in a
foreign tongue is a thiog more lame and
illogical than Salvini's polyglot "Othello."
.People naturally want to understand what
they look at and listen to. Because comic
opera is suns in English and care is taken
that the audience shall understand tbe dia
logue, is a great part of the reason for its
popularity. There is no reason why serious
opera, if put in a comprehensible tongue,
should not enjoy, as compared to comic
opera, the same relative popularity that se
rious drama enjoys as compared to farce and
comedy.
And for once it is a genuine case ot vox
populi, vox del. Tbe voice of the gods
agrees most heartily. One of "Wagner's
cardinal principles and, as the writer of
his cwn text, one ot his greatest achieve
ments was to make the libretto in itself a
dramatic poem of equal value with the
music embodying it or the action and mite
en scene illustrating it. The central idea of
the modern opera, Wagnerian and other
wise, is dramatic consistency, that is to say,
the focussing of all the means of artistic ex
pression upon the dramatic ideas and situa
tions as they develop in tbe plot.
In this process words are a prime necessi
ty in presenting the concrete, definite idea
which is the starting point and the rallying
point for the host of feelings and sensations,
more or less indefinite, which the music and
ine stage accessories so powerluliy super
add. Opera without words or with unintel
ligible words is of but little more use in
conveying definite, concrete ideas than is in
strumental music. It is simply "pro
gramme music" with pantomimic and pano
ramic programme even less satisfactory,
because more tantalizing than the printed
"programme"of a a symphonic poem of Ber
lioz or Liszt.
three years he would not finish it Alto
gether, Xaver Scharwenka impresses one as
a sincere, earnest artist, one who Joves his
art and delights in unfolding its beauties to
others. His knowledge of the repertory of
the piano is enormous, and his memory
ranges with ease from Bach to Brahms.
Xaver Scharwenka's is a magnetic and
lovable personality, and there can be no
doubt of his great euccess as a piano vir
tuoso next winter.
He will first be heard in this city at th
Metropolitan Opera House with orchestral
accompaniment, on which occasion he will
play his first concerto, several other solo
compositions, and the orchestra will play
under the composer's baton selections from
his new opera. Scharwenka will then
make a tour o( the country.
Among last night's copvright cables from
London to The Dispatch is the tollowing
bits of musical news: For a long time past
it has beetrtthe practice to hold tbe Handel
Festival in London triennially, and this has
grown into the greatest musical festival
which the big metropolis gives. It has
now been decided to eive also triennially a
Mendelssohn Festival, and tbe first will be
held in June, '92. Tbe singers will number
5,000, the pick of the country, and there will
be COO instrumentalists. The seats will cost
from half a crown to 30 shillings each, and
25,700 people can be seated to bear a per
formance. Madame Patti sang at a concert in Wales
this week, which she herself organized in aid
of local charities, and which realized nearly
1,000, It has just transpired that last
spring when the was suffering from a severe
cold "she became very nervous and fear
ful of losing her voice, and
went specially to London to
consult Sir Jlorefl Mackenzie. That emi
nent specialist made a careful examination
of the prima donna's throat, with the result
that her fears were proved to be groundless.
Sir Jlorell even expressed doubts whether
the possessor of such exceptionally strong
and beautiful vocal organs could ever lose
her voice.
THE KAISER'S VISIT.
Bis Inspection of the English Army
and Navy Most Thorough. -
It is a curious result of the past condition
ot the market for operatic singers that the
Metropolitan Opera House in New York,
which stands as the shrine of Wagner
worship in America, has been steadily vio
lating this cardinal principle of the master's
(and, incidentally, doing his works a great
injustice) by using a foreign language in all
its representations. Some of these days,
and that before very long, this anomally
will be done away with. The signs of the
times are indubitable.
Though the Thurber-Locke National
Opera Company made a disastrous finan
cial failure, it sowed the seeds among the
people of a strong demand for grand opera
in English worthily given. Manager Locke,
with his Emma Juch troupe, is reaping the
harvest on the road, where it is hardest to
garner. Mrs. Thurber herself keeps on with
increasing success at the educational end of
the old scheme, and bids fair to get the Na
tional Conservatory of Music, with its espe
cial aim of training native opera singers,
established upon a truly national basis.
Here, too, is Manager Hammerstein, of
Harlem Opera House, New York, with a
carefully matured plan for placing opera in
English upon a stable and permanent foot
ing in the metropolis. He has engaged as
conductor Mr. Gustav Hinrichs, whose
services in tbe same cause need no recount
ing; he promises a good ensemble and no
quarter to the star-system, which is the
arch enemy ot good opera, and he purposes
giving special performances in which the
thorns will be recruited from the music
schools, a strong pledce for the future.
And now, combining the practical and
the educational in one scheme, come Messrs.
Sari, Macdonald and Barnabee and Miss
Marie Stone, with the "Bostonians Operatic
School," and their plan for a regular series
of operatic performances in English through
out a season of 20 weeks each year all to
be housed in Boston Music Hall.
The school will begin operations on Sep
tember 29 next, but owing to previously
made contracts, the first regular operatic
teasou will begin the first Mondav of Octo
ber, 1891, and contracts have been dulv
signed to insure the carrying out of both
these plans. The operatic school will be the
first institution of tbe kind known in this
country, as its departments will be confined
exclusively to vocal instrnction, and the
preparation of students for the operatic and
concert stage. All branches of study essen
tial to a thorough fitting for such' public
efforts as rail to the profession of operatic
and concert singers, will be taught at the
Bostonians operatic school, and the propri
etors, Messrs. JKarl, Macdonald and Barna
bee, pledge themselves to give pupils all the
advantages possible in these lines of study.
Competent pnpils will be afforded opportuni
ties to appear in tbe operatic productions
which will be made a feature or each school
year, and all pupils will be advanced as
rapidly as is consistent with their welfare.
The arrangements contemplated are all
with a view to making the new institution
a thoroughly practical school of instruction,
the graduates of which shall be thoroughly
fitted for supplying the constantly increas
ing demand throughout tbe country for
operatic artists.capable of singing tbe stand
ard works of the day, In tbe vernacular as well
as for English singers for the concert and
oratorio stages. The managers have ap
pointed Tom Karl as the resident director
of the school, and he will devote the larger
- part of the coming season to the duties of
the office.
By the contracts made between the
"Bostonians" and tbe Music Hall Corpora
tion tbe ball will, by or before the 15th of
September next, be fitted with a temporary
mask for the entire stage end of the hall,
which shall, in effect, make the stage thatof
an opera Tiouse with an opening 34 leet wide
by 28 feet in height, the decorations
to be in harmony with those of the
hall, and calculated to heighten the
attractive features of the auditorium. The
"Bostonians will use the newly arranged
auditorium for two weeks, beginning Sep
tember 22 next for their opening engage
ment of the season of 1890-91, and then on
the first Monday of October, 1891, they will
open their first regular season of 20 weeks
at the hall. Arrangements have been
made by which these performances will In
ao way interfere with the Symphony con
certs or rehearsals.
Of course, Xaver Scharwenka's present
visit to America under the auspices of a
well-known piano firm, while declared to
be purely for recreation, is in fact
preliminary to a concert ttur. It is
row announced that he will return
next January to make a prolonged
professional tournee, when all of us can
hear him. Meanwhile he is quite the
musical lion of the hour in New York. The
following is from the last chatty article about
mm in me juuzicai courier, and will go
well with the biographical sketch and por
trait cut printed in last Sunday's Dis
patch: Xaver Scharwenka is a striking-looking
man. His is an individuality that attracts
one instantly. Of haughtiness there is no
trace, although abundant dignity and re
pose. jTh dash and vigor of his earlv
youth are yet apparent, but tempered, how
ever, by experience and a kindly nature.
He reminds one instantly of a military man.
His poise is soldierly, and he is evidently
born to command. This is markedly felt
when he seats himself at the instrument.
His pianistic style is large and manly;
his command of tone color most varied and
brilliant; his touch full and his tecbnic
finisbeJ. He played bits of his own etudes
the famous one in B fiat, commonly

Pestalozzi once said: ''I would go so far as
to lay it down as a rule that whenever children
are Inattentive, or apparently take no interest
in a lesson, tbe teacher should always look first
to himself for a reason."

Daring Bis Exploration Into the Mysteries

THE "EMPEROR SAID TO BE AH AETIST
I BY CABLX TO TUB SISFATCH.1
London, August 9. Copyright.
Kaiser "Wilhelm, in taking leave of Queen
Victoria-last evening, is reported to have de
clared that the week has been the pleasantest
he has spent since he was her guest last year.
The young monarch probably spoke from his
heart, for nothing had been spared to make
his visit enjoyable.
The programme was a detlghtfnl mixture
of naval and military recreation. One day
the Kaiser would be yachting, and the next
saw him reviewing troops, firing guns and
inspecting the ship building of the big
Portsmouth dock yards, just across tbe nar
row channel separating the Isle of "Wight
from the mainland. His superabundant
energy made him a somewhat embarrassing
companion aboard the Prince of "Wales'
yacht .during the race for the regatta prize.
BIS HEAD IN DANOEE.
He tried bis hand at everything, could
scarcely sit still, and when the yacht's top
mast collapsed in a sudden squall It fell
within a few inches of Germany's Imperial
head. On shore he was equally restless.
He seemed to chafe against tbe restraint of
the Osborne House, and spent as little time
within its walls as courtesy would allow,
eyen taking most of his meals in the garden.
In the Portsmouth dockyard and at East-
ney Barracks he hnrried about like a detec
tecttve in search of a clew, much to the dis
comfort of his portly uncle of "Wales and
the members ot the British mite, most of
whom were elderly and some of them old
men. At Eastney, before the Kaiser had
half completed his inspection, "Wales de
clared himself completely done up, sat
down in the nearest seat in one of the bar
rack rooms and called for cooling drinks.
The Kaiser, laughingly, continued his
way, and five minutes later was in the ser
geant's messroom, sampling the men's food
and drinking of the beer retailed at 1 penny
per glass, and pronounced the liquor good.
AFEAID OF TEE PIE.
But after commanding a big general in
his suite to taste one of the penny pork pies
so dear to the stomach of Tommy Atkins.
and observing that he did not seem to like
it the Emperor concluded not to try it
That afternoon happened to be the hottest
of the week, and while the Emperor and
princes were amusing themselves inside the
barracks the troops were drawn up outside
in thick, tight-fitting clothes exposed to the
full rays of tbe sun. Some of them fainted
and were carried oft the ground. All suf
fered more or lets, so that the day's enjoy
ment was by no means general.
"Visitors to the imperial yacht Hohenzoll
era made the surprising discovery that
Kaiser "Wilhelm is an artist. That he
paints is undeniable because pictures were
found bearing his signature. But hyper
critical persons have arrived at the "con
clusion that he cannot have an artistic soul
because the green panels in his dining room
on the yacht are "destroyed by a table
cover of electric blue and the harmony of
the bedroom walls covered with light flow
ered chintz is disturbed by the violet velvet
coverlet of the bed.
HIS NEW DOMAIN.
The Kaiser will arrive at Heligoland to
morrow forenoon, but the formal cession of
the island to Germany bas taken place to
day. Early this morning Herr "Von
Doetticber, accompanied by a brilliant
staff, arrived in the German warship, and
was received with a salute of 17 guns. At
2 o'clock the formal transfer was made. The
British and German flags were hoisted
under a salute of 21 gnus, and remained to
gether until sunset, when both were hauled
down.
To-morrow morning the German flag
alone will gladden the Kaiser's eyes, but
since 2 o'clock to-day the island has been
German, and German officials have con
ducted its public business. The Heligo
landers have taken very kindly to the
transfer. They will present a royal address
to the Emperor to-morrow, and bouquets of
island flowers will be presented to him by
16 Heligoland gills in island costume. Tbe
island is so crowded that there is imminent
peril of people being pushed overboard, and
tbe food is running short.

Distress
After Eating
Ts one of the many disagreeable symptoms of
dyspepsia. Headache, heartburn, sour stom
ach, falntness and capricious appetite are also
caused by this very widespread and growing
disease. Hood's Barsaparilla tones the stom
ach, creates an appetite, promotes healthy di
gestion, relieves the headache and cures the
most obstinate cases of dyspepsia.
"My wife bad dyspepsia. She could not keep
her lood down, and had that oppressed feeling
after eating. She bad no appetite, and was
tired all the time. Hood's Sarsaparilla did he r
a great deal of good. She can eat anything
without distress, and has no trouble In retain
