Somelhlng About Ik Dramatic oratorio Thaf

Entailed an Immense Amount of
Labor Those Who Will Assume the
Leading Roles Names of the Mem

Everything Ready for Tonight.
One of tbe most ambitions efforts on
the part of local musicians will be the
prod ucl ion of the dramatic oratorio,
"The Fall of Liabylon," by the Saertd
Music society at tbe Frotbiiigbam
theater tonight aud tomorrow night.
For weeka the hundreds who will par
ticipate iu it have been drilled with
unwearying patience by Tallii Morgan,
die conductor, aud John T. Wnlkiua,
.Tho BMQU1VI one of tbe leading roles.
Their tusk has been u mouumeutal
one which only those who have watched
the rehearsals or participated iu tlietn,
can appreciate.
Their efforts have been crowned with
BacCHB howjver, as the work of tho
different choruses on the stago of the
Frotbiagbatn theater will demonstrate.
It was ueceBsary not only to impart to
till members of tbe choruses, us well
is the principles, a proper conception
ol' the work, but to give instructions in
noting, for tbe oratorio U Intensely
Irnuuiic, With the principals' no
trouble whatever was found. Tiiey are
all tiuo vocalists, who huvo ropuatedlv
appeared bufore tbo public and kifow
what is n quired of tbem.
DRILLING IBK cuoilLiKS
With tbo members of the chorus tho
task was much more difliuutt. It is
Hie first public upp.'arauce on a stage
for many of them and they had to bo
taught not only the words aud music,
tin proper phrasing, but also had to be
schooled iu titling expression of face as
well as of voice. An ides of Mtiog
iud grouping to ucluuV artistic stag
;ilect hid also to bo imparted. J.
Frank Sigal was iu charge of drilling
the vnoruuses for the marches which
was no iucoiisiderat'lo tuk.
Tho "Fall of Babylon" has to do
with the events ti;at occurred at the
ciose of lislsbazz ir's brief rsigu iu the
year 588 E C, at the time wlnu ths
Jews bad been captives for seventy
years. These Jewish captives hud
their own lucul ruiers, or governors,
and enlivened the feasts of the heathen
captors with their music aud song. At
tills time Cyrus, iu .g of Persia, bad
been for years beseigiug Babylon with
no immediate prospect of sncoesa
Nabonidas. father of Bslshazzar, was
Kiug of liibylou, but, with bis army,
had left the city to tight the Persians,
placing bil impetuous and unholy son,
UelelMZZtr, on tbe throne with
Nltocrii, the queen mother, as co
iegeut iu bis absence.
I HI 'KAST OF I1ELSHAZZAR.
The annual festival in honor of the
Babylon deities had come aud Belshaz
lat had determined to give a feust Bur
passing anythiug of the kind prior
thereto. The high noon of the feast
cam. All hearts were boundiog, all
spirits joyous. Tbe king descended
fr in his throne, drank in the most
public manner, aud then impiously
called for tbe holy vessels robbed from
tbe temple at Jerusalem by his grand
father. Nebucliaduezzar. This sacri
lege was regarded us the worst of
crimta; but infiumed by wine the king
would not be restrained. Thau, over
against tho seven-branched candle
stick irom tbe Wniple, appeared tue
tinkers of a mysterious band that wrote
stranga words npon tbe wall which
none could read.
The revelry was hashed. "Tbe cup
fell from the king's band. His knees
smote together. His glaring eyeballs
are fixed on the wall before 1. 1 in. as be
holding some horror from which they
could not turn away. A thrill of ter
ror pierces through every soul," and
shrieks of alarm are mingled with ories
to Baal, and the king loudly com
mands that tbe Astrolouers, or Magi,
be brought to road tbe wrliing. The
Magi, of whom Daniel was once made
chief, "were counsellors of tbe sover
eign, administrators of justice, and
educators of tbe heir apparent to the
tin one. None could occupy tne throne
who were not so trained by tbe Magi.
It was the proper name for priest
among the Persians. They worshipped
lire aud water. Baal was" their God.
Their priest wore conversant with tho
secrets of nature, spirits, genii and
angels " Such were tbe nieu whom
the king summoned. They came, but
were dumb.
DANIEL IS CALLED UPON.
Diniel, formerly high at tue court
under Nebuciiadue zzar, in the new
regime had gone into obscurity, par
haps snaring tbe bitter fate of bis des
pised and persecnted fellow exiles,
watching and waiting for the day when
the Lord should huVj mercy on his
people and restore Israel to the land of
their fathers". It was over thirty years
since Daniel had stood before Nebu
chadnezzar. He was now ninety years
old, and so long had been his obscurity
that Belshazzar had forgotten him: but
the virtuous and regal Nitocris remem
bers him and suggests that he be
called. He came and declared tbe
hidden meaning to bo that the king is
weighed in tho balance and found
wanting, and that tbo kingdom is di
vided and given to tho Modes and Per
sians. Tbo promised reward is at once
(,'iven to Dantul who was made third
ruler of tho kingdom, which was the
blghtlt office in Belsdnzzar's gift, he
himself beiug second ruler.
Whllo this was transpiring at the
palace Z rubbsbel had found his way
to lb camp of Cyrus; between whom
the opinion ia ventured that a sacret
and serviceable league exislcd, aud
Cyrus was thus kept informed of all
that Dassed' in Ibe city. Acting by the
command of God, through, an angel,
and by tbe advice of Zerubbabel, Cyril
marched into the city by way of the
river gates, burst into the palace with
a bund of Persians aud slew Belshjizznr
ou the scene of his impiojis revelry,
Soon afterward, led by Z rubbabel,
the Jews returned to their own land, by
command of Cyril?, nud Babylon finally

Why Hoast In ths SunP
The above is the question that is intor
Ing the public at present, and It is hard to
answer wbeu we think of that flue, shady
spot, Lnurel Hill Park, which is so near
Scrauton and so couvonieut to tho street
cars. There is no doubt but that the
greatest amount ot umiisouieut seekers on
tho Fourth of July will be wending their
way to this resort, spciif)ly when we
consider that the Caledonians will be there
und hold Iheir usual old reliable games ou
that day. Don't forget the above facls
aud go to tho ouly real shady tpot near
tho city.
