?V T ' - - . "!.- THE MUSIC WORLD Pittsburg Greatly Interested in the Annual Meeting of the Teach ers' Association. SOJIETHKa ABOUT ITS ITMNCES. Gossip About the Deficit of the Hay Festival and the Plan That Has Been Adopted to Make It Up. A FIXE ENTERTAINMENT ARRANGED. Bndjct of Sens Items That Will Interest-All the Lovers of tie Art Divine. The mqst important event now looming up in Pittsburg's musical horizon is the third annual meeting of the Pennsylvania State Music Teachers' Association, to be held here in December of the current year. In preparation for this occasion, which is one of wide opportunities, the first duty is to see that the sinews of war are plentifully provided to enable the officers (most of whom are Pittsburpjers this year) to realize these opportunities to the ut most That a local effort has already succeeded in" paying off one-half of the de ficit left by the second Philadelphia meet ing is distinctly creditable as far as it goes. But much more is to be done. It must not be forgotten that not only are nil persons whose livelihood is gained from music eligible as active members of the as sociation, but every lover or patron of the art universal is also welcomed to its mem bership, as an associate, with all the privi leges he will care about possessing, livery regular reader of this department of The DisrATCnis therefore directly interested, as a possible member, in the following cir-cular,recentlj- issued: Pittsburg, 3Iay L TotlieMcmbers: Attention 5s hereby directed to the circum stances which brought about the deficit of Hit 54 at the second annual meeting, held In Philadelphia, December 29, 30 and 31, 1890, as ' follows: L Failure of 203 members to renew their membership for 1890 $205 00 2. Loss resulting from the Paul de Janko keyboard exhibition and recital U7 75 S. Excess of cost over original esti mate for issuing first annual re port 151 50 4. Payment of 1SS9 deficit G9 15 Total $576 50 Deducting the above actual deficit... 414 5t $16180 It will be seen that there would have been a surplus of $161 66 in the treasury but for these circumstances. Since December 31, 1890, our indebtedness lias been reduced principally by the efforts of Pittsburg members in arranging a concert, which realized toward its liquidation $200 55, and a few smaller sums from outstanding tickets of the December meeting, so that the deficit now amounts to something under $200. As it is very desirable to pay off this bal ance as soon as possible, and also to provide funds for publishing the second annual re port (now under way), and in view of the prevailing opinion at the closing business session of the last meeting, that the mem bership renewals for 1891 should be asked for at once, you are hereby kindly requested to comply promptly, by returning enclosed membership blank filled up as per direc tions upon it with the fee of $1 to the Seere tarv, who will thereupon send you a mem bere card for 1S9L It is hoped that all of the nearly 900 mem bers will send in their renewals, thereby placing the association upon a sound finan cial basis, and enabling it, with the addition of the fees of the new members, to more ef fectively carry out its objects and make the coming meeting at Pittsburg a great suc cess. Charles Davis Caktei-, President. AD M. Foeester, Secretary and Treasurer, - :l O. Box SS3, Pittsburg. The May Festival Deficit. The deficit resulting from our own May Festival comes still nearer home than that of the State association. No one at all con versant with the financial results of Pitts burg's past festivals could for a moment suppose that Mr. Rctter was actuated by any expectation of pecuniary profit in under taking another such an enterprise. He no doubt put his shoulder to the festival wheel again j ust as Mr. Gittings has foryears man aged artists' concerts at a loss from a desire t6 swell the tide of our musical activities in a manner calculated to benefit all interested in the art, and, of course, with a very laud able personal ambition to maintain his rank as one of the city's foremost, enterprising musical leaders. To come out even, with, perhaps, a Jair compensation, for the profes sional work done, but without counting on anj'thing like a business profit upon the amount of money and risk involved this was unquestionably Mr. Better's expecta tion, so lar as the finances were concerned, in entering upon this May Festival enter prise. The results, however, have been very dis couraging, as approximately stated in this column fast Sunday and more fully during the week. The cost of remodeling Mechani cal Hall, about $3,300 over andbove the $800 rent: the $3,SO0 deficiency in the expected receipts from the boxes, of which only 62 of the 100 were subscribed for; the cold weather, which certainly lessened the gen eral salo by several thousand dollarsany one of these elements would, if reversed, have overbalanced the deficit of $3,132 17, shown bv Manager Jenks' fully Itemized report arid explanations to the patronesses at last Tuesday's meeting. Under all tho circumstances the patron esses and the experienced business men called in to that meeting very properly de cided that this indebtedness is to be consid ered morally the debtof musical Pittsburg, in the pavment of which everyone Is con cerned who cares for the future of music in our community. It was the sense of the meeting that, it" our own musical leaders, going into such public spirited enterprises as a legitimate phase of their regular activ ity and not as a business speculation, are to be confronted with large pecuniary losses in addition to all their work and worry.then wcroavas well give up tho hope of having any musical events ot like magnitude In the future. There is much in this view of tho case worthy of being pondered over by all who belicvein music as an important factor in the life of a civilized community and who perceive the tiemendous opportunities in this direction incident to the general awak ening of all inauner of higher activities in the Pittsburg of to-dav. .. Smooth Sailing Thus Far. Tho plan evolved for canceling this omin ous deficit and clearing the decks rfor fur ther action, is to hold an entertainment on Thursday evening, Juno 12, at the Duquesne Theater, which Manager Henderson has kindly tendered for tho purpose, frceof.all charges but the actual running expenses. It also should be stated that In order to be present on the date chosen, Assistant Mana ger McCullougli erv accommodatingly gave up a"contemplatcd trip to Chicago. The same generous spirit has actuated the following local artists in consenting to take Sirt without compensation: Mrs. Maurice I. Mter, Miss Agnes Vogel, Miss May Beesley, Miss Margaret Fraser, Miss Mamie Rcuck, Mr. Joseph A. Vogel, Mr. John A. Strouss, Mr. Joseph II. Gittings and the members of the Beethoven Quartet Club. It is possible that Mr. Emil Fisher or Mr. Franz Runhnel may be brought back to give added artistic eclat to the occasion. Another probable feature of strong attractiveness is a minuet danced by young girls of the fashionable set. The social influence of the prominent patronesses will bb brought to bear to mako this composite entertainment a socicty event of the first water. Admission to the first floor will be $2, to tho dress circle $1 and to the gallery 50c; There M11 bo no reserved seats, except In tho boxes, which are . to oo mado .the subject of a rather novel modo of money getting. The boxes, containing six seats, arc each held at $23. There being but eight of them, they would soon be taken. Where fore it has been deemed wise to hold tho al lotment of the boxes open until Tuesday be-' fore the concert, and m the mcantimo ro ccive bid- of premiums for order of choice. These bids, which need not lie sealed and may be Increased as often as auy bidder desires, aro to bo left In writing at Hamilton's music store, for Mrs. II. B. Birch, Secretary and Treasurer of the patronesses. The bids re ceived will be announced from time 'to time in the newspapers, and on the day named .the eight highest bidders will bare' the privilege of taking the boxes at S6,pius the premium bid. ' ' It is to be hoped that a generous rivalry among box-bidders and ticket sellers may spring up strongly-enough, -with the general public's valued aid, to enable this entertain ment to pay off the deficit and to provide a further nest egg for the next festival. For wo do want to have future festivals. The Imperfect efforts of the past have dem onstrated bevond question tho great value of such occasions to & community situated like ours. They have also demonstrated the impropriety of expecting any one man to shoulder the entire responsibility, financial as well as artistic. He will always have, to cut Ills coat according to the .cloth, and his financial arrangements will nevor bo per fected In time to enable the best results to be obtained. A (rAnnfnn mnilft festival Is the kroner con cern of the whole musical community. It ought by all means to be in charge of aper 'manent Festival Association, comprising the city's leading citizens. Now, while the Iron is not, while sueh as effort is making to clear up the past record expressly for the sake ofthe future right now is the time to organize In permanent shape. Only with the stability assured by such an organization can the chorus arrangements be begun in time to make careful selection of voices and allow anything like sufficient time to rehearse true festival programmes. This Is the most vital part of a festival and it is the one most dependent upon the time liness and stability or the general organiza tion. Mark that point well; therein lies the secret of most of tho failures of the past. Without going further into tho question to-day, it may be well to quote from the last annual report of Secretary Monroe, of the Worcester, Mass., Festival Association, as showing how the choral element has come to be valued In their experience of nearly two-score years: "You will allow me to emphasize the fact that ours is .firstly, lastly and always a choral festival. Tho chorus is what tho masses, both the educated and the ignorant alike, want to hear. The chorus and their immediate friends, former members and their friends, are the great factors in main tainlng tho festival. Nowhere else are to be foundso competent critlcs.notonly of chorus work, but of soloists and orchestra alike. No other class of persons are such sure and Te llable patrons they don't stop to inquire as to the merits of this or that soloist before buying tickets, lint they assume in advance that the committee who have heretofore ar ranged successfully have done so this year, and postpone Judgment until after perform ance. This view, entertained by so large a number of festival patrons, removes the en terprise from the nature of a. speculation, and the varying success that would neces sarily result from the engagement of stars, and tho vexing uncertainty attending ar rangement attempted with them, and places it upon tne high plane of a good en semble and the certainty of success attend ing worthy performances." Musical Gossip by Cable. Cablegrams from London received by The Dispatch last night are as follows: The event of the week has been the one hundredth performance of Sullivan and Sturgen's "Ivanhoe," at the Boyal English "Opera House. This performance took place on Monday last. Sir Arthur Sullivan con ducted the music, and the cast was com posed of the same actors and actresses who first presented the romantic opera to the public.

CROOPDJUBY WOKI, The list in the Hennessey Case Given to the Defense Nearly ' TFENTT-FOTJB HOUBS IN ADVANCE. The-Grand Jury at Jfew Orleans Haa-De-livered its Pinal Report . A-BID SLAUGHTER 'HOUSE SCANDAL New-Oeleans, May 30. The grand jury this afternoon made their final reports. Be ferring to the irregular proceedings about the court building, the fact is mentioned that the list of tales jurors in the Hennessey case was delivered to the defense nearly 24 hours before it was given to the attorneys for the State. The grand jury was unable to ascertain who was responsible for this, but they Suggest that the court officials should investigate the matter and place the responsibility where it belongs. Regarding the new slaughterhouse scan dal, as to the City Council and Board of Health the Grand Jury says that the sub ject was presented by the Attorney General of the State, who conducted the ' examina tion of numerous witnesses during an ex haustive inquiry. The workings of the whole scheme were exposed, extending from its incipiency, through all the minute de tails of its progress, down' to the closing act whtfn the disclosures were made. The new slaughter house ordinance passed by, the Council required the concurrence of the Board of Health. About this time an intermediary appeared upon the scene, claiming from the announced, promoters a written recognition to the extent of an in terest of 30 per cent in the new enterprise. This is claimed by friends and representa tives of two prominent members ofthe Board of Health. " That the demand was concurred in is shown by a written compact in the possession ot the grand .jury, signed in duplicate by five parties. The original paper or form was drafted by one of the two members of the Board of Health. The course of affairs did not materialize as intended or expected at the board meeting held May 14 last, and hence the develop ments which followed. While no criminal intention may have been entertained by any of the parties concerned iu the creation of the slaughter house company, the evidence abounds with acts plainly in violation of public policy and morality, but unfort unately the statute which would indicate the remedy for such transactions fails to meet the facts and circumstances ofthe mat ter investigated, or to crystallize them into adefined offense; and where the statute un doubtedly would apply, it was found that no penalty had been prescribed, rendering its provisions of no effect. 'TVe have advised the Attorney Gen eral," says the report, "to present to the Governor the facts of this matter that he may take such steps as will lead to a vindi cation ofthe law and the purification ofthe public service." In conclusion, the grand j ury says : ' The official records of the court show the extent, of our labors, having ex amined over 950 witnesses, resulting in 18 indictments and two returns of "not a true bill."

Children are as subject to catarrh as adults, and much ofthe trouble referred to other diseases, such as habitual headache, cough, worms, colic, etc., is caused by this disease. They become weak and puny, and look like little drled-up old men and women, when they should be sleek and fat and roty. Children who have become weak and puny soon take on new life and growth under the combined local and internal treatment aa practiced by Dr. Byers. Master WiUie Bannpmt A case. hv.pblnt Is Master Willie Hannam, aged 7, whose parents live on Stanwix St., Sit. Washington. When first brought to the ofneeof Dr. Byers he suffered with continual headaches, coughed all the time, was always hawking and spitting to clear his throat, had pains in the chest, bothears troubled him a great deal and he frequently had spells of sickness at the stomach, eta, etc. His mother said "he just laid around all the time and didn't feel like playing." Dr. Byers directed his treatment to the nose, throat and ears, and gave him medicine internall for his stomach, and was soon re warded by noticing an entire disappearance of all the annoying symptoms the little fel low has now aU the vim peculiar to chil dren of his age, is feeling well and growing rapidly. Dr. Byers has at the present time a great many chUdren under nis care, and has but little trouble in treating them, as ha wins their confidence and affection from the first.
