THE MUSIC WORLD, Comprehensive Character of the Car negie Library Scheme as at Last Crystallized. DKITI OF VARIOUS INTERESTS. Many Advantages of the Site Sow Assured Bj the Action of the Pittslnrff City Councils. GOOD CAUSE FOE COXGEATDLATION. An Intertttirg Budget cf Ktir Itics for lit Lotot ef the Art EiT-.il. Musical Pittsburg has reasons of its own for rejoicins now that Councils have at last tendered to th! Carnegie Library Commission the unrestricted use of the Scbenley Park entrance, and haTe thus re moved what seems to have been the chief obstacle in the way of beginning actual work upon Mr. Carnegie's magnificent and much-delayed gift. Discussion of the library proper has so occupied public attention as, perhaps, to obscure the importance of the Carnejie scheme, in its entirety, to other than literary, or bookish interests. Thouch, ior that mat ter, musical circles have an especial stake in the library itself, iu that the only pro vision yet known to be made toward filling the shelves consists in the parchasa of the Karl Mere Musical Library for that ultimate pur pose. "VV ith such a collection in hand, already ranking high among its fellows, and with the more or less immediate prospect of import ant additions that have been promised, it c not iTnrni!snnahlA to exnect that the Pitts- liurc Carnegie Librarv will open with a musical department worthy of comparison with any of its class on the continent. That means much to our musical progress. The Keed of a Music Hall. But, apart from the library proper, Mr. Car lisle's comprehensive plans are of the first importance In their direct relation to the musical community. Onr cry for a large music liall has steadily gone forth for many years. What a drawback its absence lias been, what a need exists for it, what atimulus it would be to larger efforts for the mnsical evangelization of t'je'masseb all this has found frequent and full utterance in press and conversation. Now this aching void is to be tiled. The Carnegie scheme embraces, it is understood, a handsome music ball, seating at least 3.W.W people, with a stage adapted for either concert or operatic use on the largest scale, and including a su perb organ bnilt on both sides of the proscen ium arch so as to leave the stage clear. hat a vista of great choral festivals, or chestral concerts, opera seasons and popular organ recitals is opened up by the mere state ment of this part of the planl Of direct importance to the musical side of the matter is, also, the proposal to anora in these buildings a commodious home tor the Acadcmv of Science and Art, with much in creased facilities for earning ont all its varied lines of higher activity. The academy at large has from the start pledged itself to foster ruusic as au integral and essential part of its general activity and the Art society, which is the section of the academy having particular jurisdiction over all the fine arts, has within the present season more than ever before demonstrated its enterprise and public spirit. Here, then, along with the un excelled material conveniences and facilities, will be found an organized bodv, well repre senting the best elements of our community, ready and able to give the vitalizing force and the intelligent guidance upon which the measure of public good accomplished must largely depend. A Center of American Art. Nor is this all that musical folk are concerned in. Mr. Carnegie's additional gift of $50,000 per annum in perpetuity for the establishment in the same suite of buildings of an art gallery, chiefly devoted to native works, is bound to make that spot a veritable head center of American art. Still another main department or the group is the proposed mnsenm, with all its varied collections, historical, ethnographi cal, artistic and scientific Hear by is to be lo cated, moreover, the splendid green house donated by Mr. Charles J. Clarfce. Doubtless the now embryonic zoologi cal garden in Scbenley Park will in time deserve to be reckoned among the valuable scientific departments to say nothing of the more general, but readily-apparent ad vantages that will accrue to the whole scheme through a situation at the entrance to the people's great pleasure ground. And it is not to be forgotten that every one of these branches the library and the museum, in their various subdivisions, the art gallery and the music hall, the greenhouses and the ,-zoo" iill And. among the various sections of the Academy of Science and Art, its own particu lar coterie of students anu connoisseurs already organized to make the most and the best use of it. The comprehensiveness of this whole scheme is stupendous; the ultimate co-relation of all its departments is remarkable. No single branch of it could have anything like the same opportunities for practical usefulness, were it cut off from the others. AU the highest ele ments of secular activity in this community -must, in the nature of things, circulate around such a center as this, when provided; and tho general public, which has already found lis wav to the new park, cannot fail to feel the drawing power of snch an imposine aggre gation of higher influences. Tho Value of Co-Operation. To preserve the completeness and solidarity of this noble plan should, in the writer's opin ion, form the controlling consideration in finally determining the site and other ques tions arising in its execution. It would be charming if an acre or two of land in the heart of the city could be bought for the purpose cheaply enough to leave ample funds for erecting suitable and sufficient buildings for all the departments. hir.ee that caunot be done, it seems by all means best to locate the entire cluster on the land now lreely offered anu thus be able to devote the entire fund to the election of build ings sumcient to accommodate all the proposed departments for generations to come. The branch libraries will from the first bring to the door of the creat masses of people the chief part of the advantages sought in their name by those who have urged a downtown site for the library. The mam library will, naturally, be largely composed or reference and technical works; it will be rather the student's than the people's library, and Its location at such a headquarters of studious aetivitv as above outlined will really secure its greatest usefulness. The value of co-operation among all these blanches of higher activity has already been tested and proven in this first season of the Academy ot facier.ee and Art, which was formed by uniting tho many ditTereat scientihc and artistic societies with that very end in view-. The accomplishment of this superb plan for an aggregation of buildings, books, specimens and facilities is butthe woiking out of the same idea of mutual helpfulness upon a gigantic scale, and will form, in its entirety, a colossal institute absolutely unique among the nations. '. A Misnomer in Opera, By special cable from London last night came the following: The Itoyal Italian Opera. London, will re open on Momlay. The title is somewhat of a misnomer. Five of the prime donne are Amer ican, two are British and two Italian: whilo of the leading artists ten are French or Uelgian. six Germans, three Poles, and three are also representatives of Rub- mj, riouiuania, Sweden and boam. There sire 31 operas in the repertory, ot which 12 are bv Italians, 11 by Germans, seven by Frenchmen and one by an Englishman. Great interest is t.iken in the production of "Faust" on Tuesday, when Miss Eames. the joung Ameucan soprano who has been trained in Palis and has tor some time past been singing at the Grand Opera, will make ber English debut as Marguerite. Mis Eames will also appear on Saturday as Elsa to the Lohengrin of Jean dc Ilcszke. Crotchet, and Quavers. Miss Kate Kerr will give a concert next Thursday evening at Turner Hall. Forty-sixth street, for the benefit of the St. Vincent de Paul Society. Mes. Genevea. JonKSTONE-lsisnop and Miss Ethel Herr Jones gave an enjoyable pro gramme at the Pennsjlvania College for AVomeu last Tuesday afternoon. Feasz Kummel won a really great triumph in New York last week with one ot the same urogrammes he gave recently in Pittsburg. li nut for liira at the -May Festival! -. Every Other Week Musical Club will tain its lriends, with the assistance of . Maiy Scbwcfcl, on next Tuesday evening, le residence of Miss Elizabeth J. Webster, fcion avenue. .ttsbueg need not. on ber own private ac-.l count, fear Italy's big gunboats, but what if the army of organ grinders, scattered through the laud, should be mobilized and burled en masse upon our devoted ears? The Marine Band began its tour last week in New England, and simultaneously Mr. II E. Rinehart began rehearsing his S00 picked school children so as to be readywhen the band gets to Pittsburg, May 2. The mandolin and glee clubs of Franklin and Marshall College were received with well earned plaudits at their concert here last week. After the entertaining programme was con cluded the "boys" were entertained at the Press Club. Mat festival matters are moving. To-morrow the contractors will begin the work of re modeling Mechanical Hall into a tine, large auditorium. The drawing of boxes will soon be held and the plan of seats bo open to the public Six weeks is not far off. At the great banquet given in New York last Thursday evening in honor of Messrs. Stanton and SeidL those heroes of tho German opera campaigns. Colonel Robert G. Ingersoll, Mr. William Steinway and M.H. E. Krehbiel were the chief speakers. It seems to have been a most delightful occasion. The continued phenomenal success of the Boston Symphony Orchestra on its present spring tour gives richest promise for the Mo zart Club concerts of Apiil SO and May L when our foremost choral organlxation will be as sisted by this, the country's foremost orchestra. Mr. Nikisch gave an entire Wagner programme at Baltimore last week, and earned superlative praise on all hands. The signal success of Art Society's action in tendering the reception to Mr. Charles Stanley Reinhart and giving the public exhibition of his works (to be continued for another week or two) is matter of congratulation as well to the musical as to the pictorial portion of that valued organization. It has brnuzht home to the entire cultured public the fact that Pitts burg possesses a wide-awake, well-oreanized society, having the momentum of 15 years' social and artistic prestige, and now resolved to carry on its object of cultivating music, paint ing, sculpture and the other fine arts in a widor and more public sphere. Such exploita tion of Art Society's name and character ought to result in large additions to membership and a general increase in usefulness. Mr. Joseph H. Gittings announces two concerts to be given at the Pennsylvania Col lege for Women on Monday afternoon and even ing of this week. He has secured the Bernhard Listemann Club, of Boston, a much-admired quintet. Including the famous violinist whose name it bears, and the equally celebrated vio loncellist, Mr. Fritz Giese. Mrs. Giese, who is a soprano of high repute, will assist on Monday afternoon, while in the evening Miss May Beesleyand Air. Gittings himself wilt render like service. The LIstemann Club's pro grammes are of greater musical excellence than those of most traveling concert parties. Monday evening's programme Includes por tions ot Beethoven's C minor Quartet, Op. 18 and of Grieg's G minor Quartet, besides Mendelssohn's entire Trio (in 1) minor; Op. 19) for violin, violoncello and pianoforte. Ax altogether meritorious publication re ceived for review is entitled "Handel and Haydn for the Sunday School," comprising nearly a score of selections from the works of these masters, adapted and arranged by Ed ward Howe, organist of Bethany Presbyterian Church, Sew York. Mr. Howe has sneceeded in bnngmg these noble musical thoughts with in the reach of children's voices, and at the same time preserving much of their inherent beauty and elevation of spirit. It is good to bear that such pure, good music has been com monly used for some years in the Sunday school ot the church named; better yet to have the opportunity afforded for other schools to follow the example. To fill children with the sentimental inanities and musical monstrosi ties of the "Gospel Hymns" and their ilk is a crime, whether religious or artistic consider ations govern. The remedy lies along the line oi tuis acmiraoie euort Dy -Mr. nowe. The indorsement ot the French pitch (C-522) and urging its universal adoption seems to have been about the only useful thing done by the National League of Musicians at their re cent annual meeting. The same question was slated for full discussion at the dinner of the Piano Manufacturers' Association last Tues day in New York, full reports of which have not jet been received. This important reform should not be postponed. The desirability of having some one accepted standard of pitch for all instruments is self-evident. No doubt the best standard for American musicians and manufacturers to follow is the French stand ard, which was adopted by the Musical Con gress at Vienna two years ago, is commonly used throughout Enrope and has in this coun try been already chosen by the Boston Sym phony Orchestra. This general lowering of pitch, if accomplished, will let us hear the classics as the earlier composers themselves heard them and will, moreover, give much needed relief to our overstrained tenors and sopranos. By all means, let us have it ! Mb. Victor Benham, pianist, who has but recently returned from Europe, where he has had a series of brilliant successes, will make his first appearance here about April 15 at Re cital Hall in the new Carnegie Music Hall. It will be tho first of a series of recitals, after which he will be beard in all the principal Eastern cities. Mr. Benham is a young American and an earnest musician. He received the fullest recognition in Berlin and in Paris. In the French capital be devoted himself to study under the best masters, including Camille Saint-Saens and Massenet. While there he was appointed one of the instructors at tho famous Paris Con servatoire and director of the chorus at the Opera Comiqne, and for the valuable services rendered he was made a member of the Legion of Honor. He gave his recitals in all the prin cipal cities of Germany, and appeared later in London with success. He returns here to take up his residence, and next season, it is to be boped, will repeat here the programmes which have gained for him his reputation in Europe. Kew l'ork World. SOUTHERN COAL TBADE. Competition With, Pittsburg Opened by the Georgia Pacific. rsrXCIAI. TELEOEAil TO THE PISFATOH.I Birmingham, Ala., April 4. The Georgia Pacific Railroad bas opened a barge line between Greenville, Miss,, and New Orleans, for carrying Alabama coal, the first shipment oi 6,000 tons being made to-day. The continued increase in tbe output of coal here has made a wider market an abso lute necessity Ho relieve the glut. This is the first effort made for the river maikets, except by rail, through to New Orleans, and Pittsburg has held her own against that competition. The railroad announces that it will make the contest in all points below Cairo. Coal men here look on it as a contest which they must win, or stop further development ex cept through the Gulf trade. The new route involves a haul of over 200 miles across Mississippi. SWAEMIHG ETJEOPEAK LAB0BEES. The Safeguards Against Pauper or Con tract Immigrants Inefficient. Washington, April 4. The Immi grant Inspector at Newport, "Vt., has re ported to tbe Treasury Department that tbe present superficial inspection of immigrants from Canada does not prevent the admission of large numbers ot immigrants from Euro pean countries, who, in his opinion, are either under contract to labor in soma of tbe interior States, or who are likely to become charges on the public. He says that he expects 8,000 of this class of immigrants to enter his district alone during the next four months, and that an equally large number will enter through the district of St Albans Island and Beecher Palls.
