A quietus continues to rest on soelat
affairs, but there Is much looking for
ward to the end of Lent, when a spas
modic icvlvlllcutlon will tnku place. Tho
assembly, which wits talked of for tas
ter vveok.hns been nbandoned.bitt a num
ber oC events larsto and small will be

eveplni; the muUi talked of readings
by Professm Clarke, of Chicago uni
versity. Will take place at the Bicycle
club On tho 24th, Professor Winches
ter, of Wesleynn university, will give
his fascinating lecture on "An Old
Castle," the title alone bringing a mys
tetlous chirm of its own. On March
2S, James Whltcomb Riley will be at
the Lyceum with his interpretations of
"Little drphnnt Annie," "The Baggedy
Man" nnd the endless bits of laughter
nnd pathos that make him dear to the
AmeHcun heart. Then there will bo
Rosenthal with his Bleat art, and later,
about the middle of Apill, will come
a novel and rarely delightful event, of
which nothing as yet has been said to
the public.
This will bo the famous "Song Circle"
which has attracted so much nttcntion
in New York soclet. where it has been
heard by select audiences at tho Waldorf-Astoria.
It is called "In a Per
sian Garden," a title which nlono
bears an Oriental fragrance, a sweet
evanescent glow as of softly tinted
lamps nnd the rich beauty of an east
ern sky as nb6ve a sea of roses,.
The woik is produced under the di
rection of Victor Harris and Is the
Bubulynt of Om.ir Khayyam set to mu

H HER POINT OF VIEW S
I can't imagine hating an.vbody deep
ly enough to wish to poison him by
mall, or to "do awav" with him other
wise, can joit' Of coutse it can be
conceived that In a nt of ungovern
able rage a man might kill another
while the swift Instinct of jnuidei
might dwell but nn Inbtant In his heart,
but to deliberately plan for weeks or
months to murder any one Is beyond
comprehension, aside even from the
fear of possible consequences.
To bo sure there nie people one would
walk five blocks to avoid meeting.
There are women -who pimply wink
their two eyes a little more swift!
than ordinarily to Indicate a bow
and there are men who net lib
If It were a laborious effort to
lemovo their hats, or who con
sider a feml-mllltniy attempt at a sa
lute to be a pollto recognition. Of
course one can actively dislike such
people, and wish it were possible not
to meet them on the street, but not to
the extent of deslilng their death or of
assisting them to be removed from
eaith. Then there nro our enemies,
somo of whom, as Mr Dooleysays: Wo
"wouldn't like to do without" They
hate us cordially for somo reason or
reasons of their own more or less faul
ty nnd more or less Indicative of bad
taste. We are In the habit of salng
wc don't cait, but down In our hearts
w e do caro a lot. Wo all have a bump
of pelf-npprohntheneg and like to bo
liked. It makes us feel uncomfortablo
to bo In tho name room with n person
wo know detests us. Sometimes If It
wore not for our pride we would prob
ably go tip to that poron and say:
"Now you know I'm not In the least to
blame for this unpleasantness. By all
rules of Judgment nnd reason you ought
to llko me. We're on the same earth
and have tn live In th" same town for
the present Lot's drop this hating
business nnd be on good terms. It's
an awful nuisance for our friends to
try to keep us apart ns It wo wero in
tending to shoot each other at sight.
They don't dare ask us to dinner nt
the same time nnd whenever they hap
pen to mention ono of us In the pies
ence of the other, thiv look apologetic
nnd net as If wo weie about to club
them Let's make tho best of each
other for appearance's, snle any way."
t
But we neer do sn nil that What
we do Is to tnko ourselves ostenta
tiously awny fiom the lclnlty of our
enemy nnd look Injuied because he lna
been invited to the same house, nnd
wo don't linv n good time It Is so de
pressing to our self-conceit to be foiced
to rcalbe that somebody hates us nnd
that we nte likely to se him nt
any moment. The old Peislan poet hail
tho right iden when he said'
"Ho who has all the world for friends
Has not a friend to spare.
But he who hno ono eueni,
Shall meet him everywhere."
There is nobody so ubiquitous as an
enemy and no one for whose exist
ence we can find less excuse. He may
stand In our way of a fortune, a sweet
heart a wicath of fame, a pedestal of
position or own to the gateway of
heaven. If he had any sense of pro
priety he would betake himself to Nic
aragua, or the Klondike, or perhaps
to Wall street any wheie beyond our
hoiizou But ho does none of these
wise things. Ho persists in stayint;
right on the spot where he can dlstuib
our equnnnnlmlty and the enjoyment of
our religion. But we don't wish him
dead. We might not rofube to bo
comforted If he should liapiKrn to die,
but we wouldn't rejoice. In fact we
would piobabl fuel a stunned pense of
horror as If the dislike, deep or trivial,
which we had hidden in our hearts,
had some how daited forth and smitten
tho one lying now so helpless with no
cnlcnl smile on the solemn lips, no
gleam of Instinctive dttiust from the
close shut ces.
As for pending our enemy something
by mall whether a bottle of bromo
seltzer or a box of Hiiler's which
would swiftly end his life If he tested
the contents, It Is Inconceivable. To
the average mind, halted so cruel, so
bitter so diabolical as this Is not with
in the scope of Imagination.
We can never bo exactly sure of
what is going on in another person's
mind. Apropos of the above subject an
Incident ma be related. A cltlren of
S-'ranton, noted for his gentle and
beautiful character was walking across
the bildge to the West Side with a
frlnd with whom he was chatting In
his oustomat genial manner Sud
denly he paused and looked over the
bildge's edge down the great d'stnnce
to the surface of the liver Then ho
lemaiked quietly: "I know a whole lot
of men, enough to 1111 this stiing pleca
clear acrosswhom I'd like to see
standing along hero in a row, and then
I'd llko to knock them over the edge
one by one-to " And he illustrated
his meaning bv sending a bit of wood
Hying into th liver
TUp friend looked at him in dumb
amazement. ' I never heard ni.ything
like that in my life," he ejaculated nf
terwatd Th mildest, gentlest, klnd-est-hcaited
man ou ever knew! and
yet he meant that.
Theie is one home In this town whote

MUSICAL QUESTION BOX
Professor J. Alfred Pennington, direc
tor of tho Hcruiiton Conservatory of
Music and organist of Kim Park church,
hnu consented to reply In the Saturday
Tribune to qiiistions concerning muplo
and musical topics neked by Trlbuuo read
ers. Every reader interested in music Is
at liberty to nsk for Information Ques
tions mnv be nddrosseil to "Muxlcal
Question Box, rare of Tribune." or thoy
may bo addressed to Professor Penning
ton. Only tho writers' Initials will appear
In connection with tho answers to their
questions Thev may sign llctltlous In
itials If thoy ucslro to remain entirely
unknown.
C. L. I would llko your opinion re
garding the best method of Improving
congregational singing.
Answer. In lost Saturday's "Quss
tlon Box" one most Important Item In
the Improvement of congregational
singing was treated. The advantage of
having a hymn sung to ono pellicular
tune, and no olhpr, was discussed at
some length. I did not say then, but
I w 111 pay now, that this idea Is by no
means original with me. I simply gave
expression to tho opinion held by some
of tho most thoughtful among i hutch
musicians of the present day, an opin
ion which my own expcilenco has over
and over again pioved true.
Granting then that each hymn
should have Us own tune, to which It
must nlwavs be sung, let its consider
the rtyle nnd character of the tunes
themselves. How shall they be har
monized? Shall wo have an entlic
tune haimonlzed with only about three
or four different chords, or shall we
have a change of haimony with nlmost
every note of the melody? To the llrst
class belong tunes like Dennis (which
has only thiee different bass notes
throughout) nnd tho melodies to what
is known ns "Gospel Hymns" To the
second class belong such tunes ns "Old
Hundied," "Saint Ann's," "Qiindco,"
and "Saint Thomas," the splendid cho.
rals of Get many and the ilchly har
monized modem English hymn-tunes.
The first variety, especially those of
tho "Gospel Hymn" tpe, arc so sim
ple in their make-up that thoy are eas
ily learned even in the four nails, yet
so lacking are they in vaiiety of har
mony that, like the popular songs of
the day, they are discarded In a short
time somewhat as last Spring's bon
net (which nt the time was just the
sweetest thing) or ns last Fall's stle of
top coats must give way to the newer
stvles There is this difference, how
ever; fashion decrees the change in
the one case, in the other their very
simplicity and "catehlness" hold In
them the seeds of decay and omlv
death.
But to the second variety of hymns,
with their noble, rich and Insphlng
haimonles.thlsobjectlon Is urged: "they
ate too difficult for congregational
use." By no means. The heart con
gregational singing of Germany which
has a hlstoiy reckoned by centuiies,
entirely dlspioves this assertion If
you mean that these constantly
changing hai monies make all the paits
except the melody too dlfllcult for any
but trained singers you aie quite light.
But these parts in a hmn tune
need not be sung at all And now I
am about to announce an axiom which
has tho most Important bearing of all
In eongiegatlonal singing- Tho melody
SHOULD BE SUNG IN UNISON
Ever body, men, women and children,
should sing the melody and leave the
harmony to the oi gan. There are sev -
eiai leasons for this. First, theie is
an Inspliatlon, an uplifting, in sev eiai
hundred voiced joining heaitlly In the
same melodv which when once heard
an nev er be forgotten Second, a mel
ody Is quickly learned b an body who
can sing a tune at all, especially if a
congiegation as a whole slrg the mel
ody. Third, the melody to the finest
class of lijmn tunes, no mattc-r how
rich and vailed the harmonies ire al
ways singable nnd easllj learned
routth, leaving the harmonies to the
organ eliminates a huge amount of
discontent singing.
Have ou ni-ver but by somebod In
thuich who was positive he could sing
bass but who simply giowled some
where in the lower octave ' The hmn
was completely spoiled for you tend
our devotional spirit gave plate to
one of annoyance und vexation You
wMieil he had a wife with him like
Jo-iah Allen's wife who would 'ketch
holt of him" and beg him to desist.
And theie Is the ladv who declares
that although she doesn't know a note
of music she can "sing n sec ond to
nmthliif.-" She ought to sav that she
nlw;is sings n fifth to everything in
other wends that instead of singing auv
one ot the tour piinted parts in the
music she manufactuies a. fifth pail
which is amenable- to none of the ac
cepted laws of harmony.
If tho whole congiegation sings the
melod diflicultles In learning now
hymn-tunes or choials cease to exist
The splendid productions ot a long lino
ot composers dating fiom centuilf-s
back to the ptesent nie nt once avail
able. It Is on account of tin- dignity
and et simplicity of the melodies, to
gethci with their rich hai monies, that
the mind nevi grows tiled of them.
Now supposing that our hymnal is
piinted with ench hymn having its ap
piopilato tune to whl'h it is ,ihwis
sung, und our church provides itsi it
with n silfllcicnt number of copies. Now-come-
unother tremendously Impoitatit
fa tor In the Iinpiovement of congre
gational singing: The same book
should be Used In all tho hervlces of
th"- chut ch, Including the Sunday
school. I see no more learon why the
dl'feient sen Ices of the church should
each requite- diffeient hinn bool's than
that thev should each icqulie it differ

limnal contnins a vaiiety of hmns
suitable to all tho varied expr-rlences
of the human heart. This subject will
be considered further In next S itur
da's Tribune.
MufIcus. Please decide tin argument
through our musical column A se
lection cetnmriicts In four-toiii Unions
follows (the example In given In musi.
ml notation) Is It proper to accent
tho two sjllablcs, or only tho tli.st sjl.
luble, which is tho only accent the
word has, and sing tho second softer?
Answer ond obllci
Answer The eamplo shows the
word "bilnging" set to two whole notes,
C and G respectively. Tho question la
does the second s liable "ing" jcclve
an accent.' Accouling to the pioper
pionunclatlon of the w-oid tho second
H liable should not receive an accent,
but I can not see how it can be sung
in the example Indicated without nc
centlmr It. Phrases mav be so coustl
tuted that the first beat of pome of the
ineasmx-a should not receive an accent,
tho ihythmlcal accent for the time
giving way to the inoro important
phrase, or metrical, accent.
This Is not, howevei. an example of
that Kind. This plunse begins with
two long notes, ench filling an entiro

note ito which tho second syllablo is
