The borough council met In regular

for profile of grade the usual question
of lighting the town was discussed.
A. II. Squires, of Tunkhannock, was
present unrt offered to light the town
with thirty-live ore lights at JS.'i per
light, and to furnish all other requisites
pertaining to Illumination for house
hold use. The ordinance also con
tained a proviso offering to light the
school houses and all public property
free of charge. Messrs. O'UrL-n. Hell
ley, Brown, Graham and Conlon voted
In the affirmative, but Mr. McLaugh
lin aroso and bitterly denounced the
nctlon taken by these men without
consulting the citizens of the borough
In Incurring such an exorbitant debt.
Several other offers have been made
during the past few years, but the
council did not encourage their plans,
and so they were obliged to submit
plans elsewhere. Mr. Squires is to be
congratulated In thus securing the
franchise. In the meantlmo the ordin
ance awaits the signature of Presi
dent. Meade and Secretary Little, the
former being unavoidably nbsent.

From tho New York Sun.
Miss Emma Thursby, like Borne other
less distinguished women, can bo two
things at once. She can be busy and
cnlm at tho eamo time. The other
morning she reached Now York, after
an all-night trip from ISoston. She
went straight to Ivor new apartment,
facing Qramercy Park. She assisted
In that mysterious feminine expedient
known ns "settling." She gave two or
three lessons, was expecting another
pupil at any moment, and yet was as
fresh and unrulllod and smiling when
a Sun reporter appeared as if the whole
programme had been more play.
Probably there are few people more
fitted than Miss Thursby to give an In
telligent and unbiased opinion about
the future of music in America. She
has withdrawn from that active part
which seems Inevitably to cause jeal
ousies and prejudices. Nevertheless,
she Is stilt young enough to bo pro
gressive, to admit the value of certain
Innovations, and to adopt them, too. As
a singer her greatest successes were
gained abroad, nnd she hns therefore
none of tho personal spue which
prompts some Americans to belittle
Europe nnd exalt tills country. This
being the case, It Is particularly grati
fying that Miss Thursby Is a stanch
believer in American musicians, wheth
er composers, performers or singers.
"American voices," eIio exclaimed.
"Why, tho American voices nre the fin
est in the world. Tho European teach
ers admit that. It Is America alone
that Is skeptical. Therefore tho sing
ers stay in Europe, where they are
honored as they deserve. It Is strange
that whenever a musical composition
appears bearing the name of an Ameri
can it receives comparatively little no
tice. But that will change. It must.
We have Chadwlck and Norrls nnd
Nevin and MacDowtll and" Miss
Thursby named half a dozen others.
"You will see. Wo will have Ameri
can composers ns well as singers."
"But our voices; foreigners never tire
of criticising them."'
VOICES USED BADLY.
"Our speaking voice, you mean. That
is not because we havo a bad speaking
voice, but because we use It so badly.
But there has bean a great Improve
ment In that direction already. Some
women have come to mo to have tho
voice trained simply for speaking. It's
tho same thing, anyway, as to train It
for singing. That Is where there has
been one great change In slngtng meth
ods. You know, when I first studied
tli teachers told us we must not talk.
They thought that speaking wore out
the voice, because It was used differ
ently fiom in singing. But now that
notion is exploded. If the voice Is used
properly it Is us?d the same way In
singing and In speaking."
"What do you consider the most Im
portant thing for a singer to iearn?"
"The art of breathing. And It is
worth noticing that Jean de Heske has
shown us a great deal in that direction.
Indeed, I think Ills work and his Inllu
er.ee have be?n largely Instrumental In
causing the great lmproveimnt which
Is evident n the American musical aste
of today. He Is a wonderful artist and
a generous one. It Is a great privilege
and a valuable training to sing with
him. But, speaking of breathing, you
remember how Jean do Reske stands?
Alwavs with the hiirh chest and with
ids weight forward on the front part
of the foot. When I am teaching a
girl I have to know where her feat are.
When I was studying teachers were not
o careful. Pupils would stand this
way." settling back Into an awkward
pose, "or In any eaiv! ss attitude."
INNOVATIONS.
"What other chances arc there be
tween the modern methods and the old
ones?"
"Well, In opera, of course, there havo
been Ereat Innovations. I like that
story about the revival of Gounod's
Hcmeo nnd Juliet' In Paris Feveral
jears atro. It had failed at first, you
know, and had been shelved for some
time. Jean de Heszke was finally asked
If he would sing at its revival. Ho
consented on condition that they would
get the flnert possible Juliet to sing
with Mm. They secured Pattl, and the
rehearsals began. It was an Interest
ing conjunction of two stars, one of the
old school, the other of the new. Well,
at the first rehearsal Pattl sang her
balcony song; sang It In her Inimitable
way, with all those little-, graceful.
birdlike gestures which used to bo tho
universal accompaniment of any nnd
every operatic role. When she had fin
ished De Heske was delighted with the
beauty of her singing and praised It
generously. Then his turn came, and
he sang with that perfect art of Ms,
fitting every gesture perfectly to the
feeling which the words of tho song
Indicated. When he had finished Pat
tl stopped the orchestra.
" 'Walt!' she exclaimed. 'So that Is
your new school. Well. I ihlnk I'd like
to try that myself,' and she made tho
orchestra go back to the beginning of
her own song. And they said," con
tinued Miss Thursby, "that the way
she sang It was a revelation.'
"After nil, she went on, "Pattl was
the greatest artist we have had. Whom
do like best now? Oh, that Is hard to
say. I like Calve. She has a beauti
ful voice, an excellent method, nnd dra
matic firp. Her Marguerite was won
derful. It Is my Ideal conception of tho
characer. Calve Is growing, too. Peo
ple Unit her singing Carmen and San
tuzza until they thought she could sing
nothing else. Her Marguerite must
Iihvo disabused tliein of that Idea. And
I like Melbn, of course, and Nordlca.
Nor Ilea has worked and studied hard,
and she has accomplished great results.
Her song recitals last year vlll linger
In my memory as long as I live."

A KO.IIANTIO lONCMSiniAN.
Sir lldwln Arnold's 1,1 to in
tho
Flowery Kingdom,
From tho Philadelphia ltccora.
Sir Edwin Arnold, who legalized his
union with a fascinutlng Japanese
widow by an English marriage service
.in London the other day, was always
cosmopolitan In his idtas. Surely no
Englishman born and bred has ever
succeeded In merging his own Individu
ality Into that of other people's as the
author of "The Light of Asia" and
"The Light of the World" has done.
When ho was In India in his young
days his work showed his Intense sym
pathy with the Buddhists, and In tho
preface to "The Light of Asia" he
wrote: "This book was written by one
who loved India and the Indian peo
ple." For two score of years he was Eng
lish to the core of his heart In tho edi
torials hj wrote for the London Tele
graph, and In 1890 ho came to America,
seemed quite able to understand us (ns
few of his countrymen could do), and
then he went on to Japan and imme
diately began to live a la Japonals.
He lived in a native house, left his
shoes at his door, slept on a thick
quilt, and, they say, nto in true Japa
nese style. In his bed room he had a
cheap European washstand, two Japa
nese chests of drawers ot white wood
and black ironwork, and the usual sid
ing cupboards, Into which his bed was
put when it was rolled up In the day
time. The walls of the room were of tlssuo
paper panels, powdered with silver ma
ple leaves, and a cl?ar glass belt ran
around the room "at a height ineon
duclve to propriety," as ono corre
spondent of the day remarked.
Tho drawing room was glass-paneled
fiom iloor to ceiling, and the only
thing in the whole house that hinted
at other civilizations was an American
st -ve, which stood in one of the cor
ners. With such surroundings It Is not
much wonder that the Impressionable
poet found himself going through thj
ceremony of tea drinking with his
ehanrlng companion of the hour, and
that he was content to accept the cere
mony ao a bona fide marriage is tribute
to his kinship with genius that since
the world began has over Haunted a lit
tle tho staid laws and regulations that
ordinary folk find necessary to com
fortable existence.
It was In Japan, by the way, that
Sir Edwin began "The Light of the
World," and, Indeed, completed it, too,
during his stay of several years.
He say. himself that ho was in a tea
garden one night surrounded by music,
flowers, handsome dressing and all the
delicate luxuries which Japan knows
so well how to combine, when sudden
ly he began to write. So absorbed was
he that he wns unconscious of his com
panions until one said: "Be quiet,
Pana Pan.a Is writing," and then h'e
found he had put on paper the first
lines of his beautiful lyric:
Peace beginning to b?
Deep ns tho sleep of the sea
When the stars their radiance glass
In Its blue tranquility.
