A Comparison of European and
American Musicians and Their Or

scribedForecast of the Result of
the Carnevon Eisteddfod.
At the rehearsal of the Carobro
Awerican ohoir, held in Young Men's
Christian Association hall last evening,
I). 1. Thomas explained the trip to
Europe, which the choir will taae in
August next
Mr. Thomas said :
Fneuds-lt issaid hero by our enemies,
aud iudeed by our couslu across the deep,
blue sea, that we cannot meet successfully
over here In friendly combat, that our
cousins and our nuuts nre our superiors in
musical theory, practice and voicos. 1
challenge the assertiuu as beiug correct
The assertion might have been correct
forty or tlfty years ago. This country was
;i its Infancy then. The art and the eei
euces and every mechanism in its highest
form was in a crude state, but wnnt did
the artists ot America demonstrate
eighteen years ago at the Centen
nial: What did the art gallery
manifest What did tbu scientific
gallery demonstrate and what did the
great mechanical and manufacturing de
1'iirtmeuts demonstrate:' uid the agricul
ture, b'Ttlculturo, floriculture and other
gieat progressive departments manifest to
tl.e world We as what did the busy
brain work and the inventive genius of the
American briug forth
America's pkoi'i POSITION.
America demonstrated beyond psrad
v eat i. re that her artists, her scientists,
her inventors, and her artisans strode
side by side with the great masters of the
greatest uatiou of the civilized world
This was m 1876. What did the Americau
artists, scientists, iuventore and artisans
of tbu World's Fair exbibltlou demon
strate This time they were not found
inarching side by side with tbe grtat
artists of all ustious. No, they were found
greatly m the lead, and far beyonu tbe
wildest hopes of their friendly opponents
to catch them in their uurlvalled
(Hurts. The Aineticau supremacy
was visible in everv department'.
Where, yes, oh where, do our musical or
ganizations stand iu the great race tor su
premacy Are they found in the rear
rsuk of the great musical organizations of
the earth: We say emphatically, no, but
in the foremost rauk. Yes, they play the
important part In the great aud grand pa
rade. The greatest orchestra Europe has ever
witnessed aud enjoyed Visited our shores
two years ago. What was the impartial
criticism of a trained American public1
What was the criticism of learned musical
critics, of native aud foreign births'- Tbe
verdict wus utiai:imous and decisive ou
every point. It was not equal to our
own Theodore Thomas' great and un
rivaled orchestra. The great European
Strauss of beautiful "Blue Danube" fame
was convinced that he met a foe
worthy of bis steel in Theodore Thomas,
and that the magic wand that rested in
the soul of the latter was fur more charm
iug and electrifying. Aud what of Sousa.of
tbe great Marine brfnd of Washington, aud
the late Csppn. and the prince of all lead
ers, the late Uilmore,and whatof the great
vocal organizations of Boston, under Zer
rahn, Cincinnati, under Theodore Thomas,
New York, under Dsmroscb and Ssiidl
and the Cambro-Americans under our Awn
Professor Protheroe Facts are always
much stronger than faint echoes carried
acros the atiautic from European shores.
ARUUMENTS ALL ANSWERED
They say tbe atmosphere of dear old Ire
land, the beautiful isle of the sea, is more
invigorating, and that the mountain
breezes of dear old Cambria gives richness
to the voice and happiness to the soul, and
that the balmy breezes of the valleys and
tbe rippling rivers of the first European
republic, happy Switzerland, the home of
our Pattis "and Brignollis lend en-
chantmeut divine to all engaged in
sing. Let us, for argument, ad
mit all this. But we can advance tbe
incontrovertible scientific theory that our
tnpaccross the Atlantic, our rambling
o.er the green fields of the land of tbe
sweet shamrock, oar inhalation of the
invigorating and divine breezes of the
mountainsof Cambria and our wanderings
lu the sweet valleys of Patti's beautiful
country will counteract all arguments Bet
forth by our cousins over she water.
Our condition will be so uritn that all
competitors will fall at our feet and Join
in that patriotic American chorus, "All
Halt to Columbia,'' and the judges will
declare the Cambro-American Choral so
ciety victorious at tbe international eis
teddfodof tho world In August, 1804.
Have courage, attend rehearsals regu
larly, pay attention to the leader, plnce
entire confidence in his abilit, his integ
rity is unassailable, and the battle will
result in the greatest American victory of
modern days,

ESCAPE FROM LlBBY REPEATED.
Two Largs Audlsnoss Witness First
Class Productions by Amateurs.
Large and well pleased audiences
were at the Academy of Music Tester
terday afternoon and evening when
"The Kscape from Libby" was repeated
for'the benefit of tbe Board of Asso
ciated Charities,
Tbe work done by the local amateur
was much better than that of tbe first
night when every member of tbe cast
was naturally rather nervous and fear
ful lest some hitch should occur to mar
the performance. Tbe young psople
who gave their time and their talents
to aid the deserving poor of the city
entered Into their work with the vim
and dash aud confidence Of profession
als. And right here it is safe tossy that
there have been many entertainments
given at the Academy by professionals
that were not nearly so clearly inter
preted as the "Kseape from I.ibby"
last evening The acting of tbe yonng
Scrantonians could hardly have bean
improved upon.
The comedy work done by William
W. Luce, Edward F. Kingsbury, M J.
Coyne and 0. Wilbur Austin was
particularly noteworthy. Mr. Kings
bury sang a popular song and accons
panied himself on the piano. It

ticing tberotroui the inost wondrous
notes of the mocking bird as Frank

HIGH SCHOOL COMMITTEE MEETS.
Engineer Bartl to Bupsrlatend Sscurlng
of Foundations.
School Controller Langstaff attended
yesterday meeting of the high school
committee. He had been seriously ill
and it was tbe first time he had been in
the board of control 'rooms in five
months, aud his presence was Warmly
greeted by his associates ou the cum
mittee.
Mr. Thompson presided and the
meeting was for the purpose of hear
ing what action had been taken iu the
matter of making the foundation se
cure under the high bchool. Mr.
Thompson stated that the shaft 1. el
been suuk, aud tbe company is now
awaiting further instructions from the
committee.
It was stated that there wasdivorsity
of opinion as, to the means to be em
ployed, Mr. Bartl, who is not iu the
city, bad suggested that the upper vein
be filled with oultn, after atiiiclal walls
had been built. C. F, Mattes and Mine
Foremen Powell and Morgan suggested
that substantial walls be built for the
support it was suggested that Mr.
Snyder, of the Delaware, Lackawanna
aud Western company, be takeu iuto
tbe question for consultation, but it
was feared that, that gentlemau COOll
spare no time.
A vigorous discussion ensued, par
ticipated iu on the one side by Mr.
Jennings and Mr. Von Storch. aud by
Mr. Wormser and Mr Thompson ou
the other. The former gentlemen
wanted Mr. Bui tl to prepare a work
iug sketch showing the walls to be
erected, their style and locution. Their
opponents held that all that was usees
sary was to have Mr. B irtl diroct the
work. The only contention was that
if the work was not properly con
structed the school district would be
the loser to the amount of the expsuse
Incurred. This piint was very freely
discussed, aud it was finally agreed to
; have the Lackawanna Iron and Steel
j company do the work uuder Mr.
; Baftl'l direction.
two letters were rend from Professor
Ware, and so much difficulty was found
in reading thsm that Mr. on Storch
suggested that be employ a typewriter
in his future communications. He
wanted the committee to furnish the
uecessary funds to prepay the express
age incident to sending bsck to their
respective owuers the rejected designs.
A motion prevailed that the committee
inform him that it had no money for
such purpose. He also found fault
because the desigos were publicly ex
hibited Secretary Fellows wos in
structed to notify him that they were
shown to the public but that the suc
cessful architects bad not seen them
aud noue of the suggestions contained
in any other design were incorporated
with the plans adopted by the committee.
Professor Ware also sent in a written
report that dealt with the proceedings
of the committee. He asked tbnt the
committee would make any necessary
corrections and permit him to have it
printed. This the committee would
not do. Ibev would take no chances
on bis chirograph)' and the committee
directed him to send a proof of the
supplemental report. Professor Ware's
entire report will ba ssut to all compjt
ltors.
THE WICKLOW POSTMAN.
Popular Eugene O'Rjurke to Be at the
Academy Satiyday Evening.
Among tbe few successful stars of
the present theatrical seasou is Kugene
O'Ronrke, who will be seen nt the
Academy on Saturday evening. His
aspirations aro to shine in legitimate
Irish comedy, and to that end Mark
Price, the well known author au 1 ac
tor, has especially written for him a
comedy which is known ns "The Wick

Mr. OTtourke declares it to be an en
tirely new aud unconventional tvpe of
Irish drams, devoid ot the English
soldier, the process server and inform
er, and all the other faded characters
that have seon ample service in plays
of Erin's Isle.
Mr. O'Rourke and his play left an
excellent impression when seen in
Scranton last October, an I ha will
doubtless be accorded a hearty wel
