r""i ? a THE SCRAOTON TRIBUNE-MONDAY, DECEMBER 1, 1902. . .; h GREAT SUCCESS OF SCRANTON SINGERS (Continued from Pago 1.) not soon be forgotten by tliosu who witnessed It. To win n biff iirlzo In Mich h. big event nnd In tho presence of 10,000 persons would be sutllclont, of course, to rouse the winners tt the highest pitch of enthusiasm, nut In this case there wns something to In tensify the enthusiasm. As It Never Sung Before. Tln choir whs singing ns It never nna before. The other competitors luul preceded them nnd It wns potent to nil that the Scrnutonlnns wero to be suro winners. There was one more note to bo sung, a grand ensemble on the word "chnrfce," rendered with nil possible power Just after n rest, and "U'atklns was beating the count for this rest, when the Scranton adher ents wero fairly paralyzed for a mo ment by homing five or six of the sop ranos break forth on the last note a lull beat befoic tho proper time. Watklns' face had been beaming .with joy. He knew his choir was pinging far better than the competitors ind that barring accidents victory was assured. When the accident came his face became ashen and, when the plfce was finished, he walked from the Htngo tho most dejected looking man imaginable. The singers wore about In the same condition. There wasn't n face In the crowd 'that wore even n ulckly smile. 'With scarcely a word to one another they began packing up their music nnd putting on their outer wraps to get out and away from tho plnco as quickly as possible. Tho Scranton delegation was crowd ed around the side exit, valises In band nnd coats buttoned up, waiting for tho Arlons to finish u selection Which wns being rendered while tho adjudicators weie making up their award. It Was an Accident. When Adjudicator Parker wns heutd to mention tho "break" in the most incidental way, referring to it as nn "accident,"' the Scranton crowd under went a complete transformation. The nd indicators had not disqualilled them for the accident. In an eisteddfod a "break" is fatal. With these adju dicators it was not to bo seriously Liken into account. It was a bit of misfortune that should have little or no weight in determining tho merits of tho singing. When the announcement came that the Scrantonians were so far in the le.id of the others that the "break" could not rob them of their victory, there was a, wildly enthusiastic, throng in the Scranton corner. They yelled like mad, pounded the floor with chairs, threw their h.its in the air, lanced about like Indians and did pretty much everything Isp that was suggested by their enthusiasm and Joy. Preparations to leave were quickly piven over. They wanted to stay and ihout and sing. A rush wns made for A'atkins and he was carried to the Inge on the shoulders uf his udmlr ,ng townsmen. Then the singers (limbed the stage still shouting and cheering. The audience pressed for ward and watched the antics of the plensurnhly surprised victors. There w.'i-e calls for a speech from Watkins but he had not rccoveied his equili brium and could only bow and smile. The audience insisted and after a wait' lie gained his voice and composure MifTiciently to speak his gratitude to the Arlons for their hospitality and the Dice. Gave Vent to Joy in Song-. The Scrantonians then began sing ing Welsh air.s ilrixologies, coon "songs, patriotic songs and any other old kind of Hinging that anyone started, and kept it up till they got back to Ilo boken. At 1 o'clock in the morning n detachment of the more enthusiastic younger members of th- parly wero Kolng up Broadway from the bridge to get to the ferry cariying at their head a large Hag which some one had lior jowed en route from Hrooklyn. The victory of the 1. idles' hoi us in tho afternoon wns also provocative of much jubilation. They had n danger ous competitor in the Ohaminnrto chorus of Brooklyn, n permanent or ganization of twenty-five selected voices, augmented for the occasion by fifteen lrnm tho society's waiting list. They tire for the most part women of wealth and station, who have had conservatory training and are rehears ing constantly under the direction of Mrs. Kmma Iiichnrdsnn-Kuester. All (if them wore elaborate afternoon owns, which were quite in contrast with tho white shirtwaists and black skirts of the Scranton ladles. Mr. Watkins was greatly disappoint ed at tho failure of his mnlo chorus to also win. It was simply a case of iwo practically faultless parties being pitted one against tho other, and of Hie one making a shndo tlm better Impression on tho adjudicators.. The Consolation of It. Hut there was consolation In the fact th.it It is no disgrace to bo beaten by i lie Dr. Mason club, and that If Scran ton could not get the prl it went to AVIlkpf-HnrVu. Mr. Watkins went on the sttigo to offer his congratulations to tho leader of the Mason dub and tho two shookJiunds heartily. It pro voked a long nurst of applause from the audience. It has been proposed to ritko tho Watkins choir a permanent organiza tion, and if posslblo send it to Wales to eompetn In tho next national eis teddfod. At all events It will have plenty of opportunity for competitions, (us German and other societies In vari ous places are talking up tho Idea of big cosmopolitan festH'als like tho na tional eisteddfod In this city and that of the Arlons Inst week. The singers and their friends, who went to New York on Friday, worn comfortublj quartered In Hoboken, and spent the day In rehearsing, sight-seeing and at the theatres and other places SHREDDED msBm BISCUIT thnt evening's session of tho festival, I when Will W. Watkins. of Peckvlllo, i won the tr0 prize on the baritone solo l competition, "Upon Thnt Day," against nine cuiupeiuum, , The Schubert quartette also sang m Friday evening's session nnd won tho male quartette competition, "The Homestead," singing tho selection In Herman, for a prize of $80. The soprano solo competition on "My Redeemer nnd My I,ord," for a prize of $!n, was also decided that evening. There were thirty-nine competitors, the test dwind ling down to two, Mrs. Frank I3rund nge, of tills city, and Miss I2dna Uur ton, of Brooklyn. The latter wns re quested by the adjudicators to repent her solo In the competition nnd was awarded the prize. Discrimination Charged. Mrs. Brundnge claims In this she was discriminated against, that the adjudi cators should have decided In the pie llmlnnry contest If Miss Burton's inter pretation was Incorrect, and that the should not have been permitted to sing the second time in competition. This same point came up again In the bass solo competition, In which Philip War ren was one of the four competitors, out of nineteen entries, and two of tho four were obliged to sing the second time, and then the prize was awarded to the last singer. The winner was Charles McCreury, of East Auiorn, N. Y. The festival was held in the Forty seventh regiment armory, at Marcy avenue and Heywnrd street, beginning Thuisday evening. Prior to Saturday afternoon, all the competitions weie for the Gorman societies, writers, music ians and soloists, excepting those men tioned In the preceding paragraph. Tho Scranton singers and their competitors wero the Scranton United Choral soci ety, Mount Vernon Musical society, Chnmlnndc Glee club, of Brooklyn; Harmony Gleo club, of Brooklyn; Dr. Mason Glee club, of Wllkets-Barre; Biooklyn Oratorio society. Tho visitors were entertalnpd at the Arlon hall, where the linal rehearsals were held, nnd were located to the lett of the stage in the armory dutlng the competitions. The attendance at both sessions on Saturday was about 13,000 persons. Got Inspiration Here. "Inspired by tho success scored at the Scranton eisteddfod, and by what features the musical and literary con tests of tho Welsh singers of Pennsyl vania excelled above other singing fes tivals, a few of the Arldfc members conceived the idea of arianglng a simi lar festival at Brooklyn," is the manner in which the official programme of the festival tells of the Inception of the big event. The reception accorded our singers was beyond expectation, and their sing ing was a levelatlon to their hearers. The first competition in which Scran ton talent appeared on Saturday was tho bass solo, referred to previously. The only two male quartettes on the "Bugle Song," out of nine entries, al lowed to appear were fiom Scranton, the Schuberts and No. n. Tho first named were John W. Jones, John T. Watkins, Thpinas Beynon nnd Willnid M. Bunnell. The others wero Alfred Wooler, Philip Warren, Alfred Pilling and M. J. Leonard. The Schuberts won, singing with accuracy, Intonation and splendid ensemble. In the tenor solo competition, "O Piomise of a Joy Divine," but four wero allowed on the stage out of six teen in the preliminaries, and Tom Beynon easily carried off the honors. His singing of tills number was un doubtedly the best competitive work of his career. The chief competition at the afternoon session wns on the "Spanish Gjpsy Girl." arranged by Walter Damrosch, in which thieij Indies' paities were entered. They were the Ladles' choius. Mount Vernon Musk-al society, Alfred Ilallnm, con ductor; the Chamin.ide Glee dub, Brook'lyn (limited to twenty-five volecs. augmented by fifteen voices from wait ing list for this festival only), Mis. Kmma Bichardson-Kuester, conductor; the Ladies' choius of the Scranton United Choral society, John T. Wat kins, conductor. Were Astounded. The Mount Vernon and Biooklyn competitors were astounded at the mar vellous chorus from Scianton, unci some of tho Xew Yorkers were amazed that "working girls," as they called thuni, should go down to tho metropolis and carry otf the prize trnm the Chumlnn.de who are considered in n class by them selves, bring picked professional voices from all over New York, The adjudicators said tho Scranton ladles sang with freshness, vivacity nnd nccurateness, and complimented them and their lender In a hearty manner. The prevailing opinion was that their singing wus the best ever heard In a Brooklyn competition. The male chorus competition on Dud ley Buck's "Tho Sptlng.ls Come," had four parties entered. They were tlm Harmony Glee club, Brooklyn, Georgo II, Meyer, conductor; Male Chorus Mount Vernon Musical society, Alf. Hallum, conductor; Scranton United Choral society, John T. Watkins, con ductor; D. K. Jones, assistant conduc tor; Florence Hlehmond, Accompanist, I and the Dr. Mason Gleo society, Wilkes Barre, P.i John Lloyd Evans, conduc tor. The competition was keen nnd ex nctlng. Tim adjudlcntnis admitted that never before had they faced such a task. The rendition by the Brooklyn chorus wns brilliant, tho judges said; tho Mount Vernon pnity gave a splen did interpretation, but the .Scranton so ciety surpassed both In all points, ns did also the Musons. The latter sang "with u greater degree of buoyancy in their rendition," and "wero more com pact In their ensemble," and in conse quenco wore awarded the prize. The Scrunton party had many adherents who thought they sang the best. Pi of. Watkins was tho first to congratulate Prof. Evans on his victory, Prize Wont to Brooklyn, Tho contralto competition, "Jteturu, Return O Lord of Hosts," had sixteen contestants in tho preliminary, but only four appeared before the audience. Of the original sixteen, six wero re called In tho preliminary for a second test, and Miss Scanlou, of this city, wns one of the six. She failed In her second trial owing to nervousness. The prize was won by Miss Lillian Brown, of Brooklyn, whose dramatic rendition was one of the features of the festival. The only two mixed solo quartettes allowed to appear on "The Sea Has Its Pearls," were the Lyrics and Mendels sohns, of Scranton. The first were Alfred Wooler, Mrs. James Heckel, Mr. nnd Mrs. Alfred Pilling. The others wero Mrs. Frank Brundnge, Mrs. Vln Jones-HUchcock, Thomas Beynon nnd John W. Jones. Tho adjudicator said that neither of tho quartettes showed the iittainmontB displayed by the pre vious Scranton singers who had ap peared, and while the Metuldssohns were tho best, they were disqualilled by their tenor's mistake of reading, and the Lyrics wero given the prize. Then followed tho chief choral compe tition, "Harold Hnrtager," by Hor.itlo W. Parker, of Yale university (who wns also one of tho adjudicators), for n prize of $1,000. The three competitive choruses worn: The Mount Vernon Musical society, Alf. Hallam, conduc tor, tho Brooklyn Oratorio society, Wal ler II. Hull, conductor; the Scranton United Choral society, John T. Watkins, conductor; D, E. Jones, assistant con ductor; Florence Richmond, accompan ist. The three choirs sang In the order named, the Brooklyn ladles nil appear ing In white gowns and tho gentlemen In full evening dress. Tho reception nc corded tho Scranton party when they appeared and had finished singing was In renllty an ovation, the like of which they had never known before. But when the decision wns given In their favor, the enthusiasm was unloosened and swelled Into a veritable whirlwind of applause, ending In a spontaneous burst of song by the happy singers. Sousa of the Choral World. Prof. Watkins was heralded ns the "Sousa of the choral world," nnd was picked up bodily by his stalwart sing ers and carried to the center of tho stage, where he wns compelled to make a speech. He thanked the Arlons, tho adjudicators, the spectators and all for tho generous reception given him nnd his party, nnd expressed the hope that all had deserved their victory, by their conduct and work during their stay in Brooklyn. The adjudicators said that the Mount Vernon party gave un admirable dec lamation of the chorus, and displayed fine spirit, but that they ran away with the piece. The Brooklyn chorus was In no way behind, and the few lib erties taken by them were justified by the results obtained. The Scranton party sang "with dra matic fervor, attention, devotion, self control and efficiency, without parallel in this experience and judgment of tho three adjudicators." The accompanist, Miss Richmond, was also complimented for her accurate interpretation of the music, and the Intelligent support ren dered by her throughout the trying rendition and preparations. NOTES OF THE FESTIVAL. Hon. H. M. Edwards, president of the Scranton National Eisteddfod associa tion and the Scranton Choral society, was an interested spectator. All of the executive committee, the entire choir and its officers, deserve tho praise bestowed on them, for having broadened Scvranton's reputation as a musical center. Gwilym Miles and II. Evan Williams were accorded a generous welcome by their Scranton friends as well as others who enjoyed their singing. A public reception to the choir in the nature of a promenade concert, and dunce will probably be arranged in a few days. It is the executive commit tee's intention to form a permanent or ganization. The special train left Hoboken at li.33 yesterday morning and arrived in Scranton at li.20 o'clock. A large num ber remained in Xew York until late last night. The competitions weie considered the best, the prizes the highest, and the fes tival the most successful ever held out side of this city. MEN OF THE HOUR. In the "Questions and Answers" de partment of the New York Sun, yester day, appealed tho following interesting contribution from Postmaster Ripple: 1 wua a prisoner of war in Anderson vlllo when the spring, about which E. R. S. asked, burst lorth somo time during tho month uf August, ISO). That it was tiodst nt and miraculous I fully believe. In lietto:- language than I can give ll John McEiio in his book "Anderson ville," piiRO 3."3, gives thu following ac count of it; "One morning the camp was astonished beyond measure to dis cover thnt during the night a Intgo bold s'prlnr, hm! burst out on tho north side, about midway between the swamp and the summit of the hill. It poured out its grnloful fined of pure sweet water In an apparently exliaustless quantity. To tho many who looked In wonder upon it, it seemed ns truly a heaven wrought miracle as when Modes' enchanted rod smole, the paichcd lock in Sinai's desert waste, and the living waters gushed forth." The spring, now known as "l'rovldenco spring," still flows in ns groat velume as in 1S(!l. and the ladies of tho Women's Relief Corp?. U. A. R., have erected over It n pavilion. Tho evening before it burst forth 1 passed the siut and there wns no evidence of water there, tho next morning just at daylight on my way to tho creek for water 1 saw n number fishing over the drail Hue with tin cups on tho ends of poles catching tho nice, pure water flow Jug fiom tho siuiiig. Tho flow wat suf ficient to supply our entire prUon of ...l.cwi. It bad come In the night. Prior to this our suffering for water had been Intense. Our only supply was tho little stream which flowul through tho camps of the rebels and tho cook houses bel'oro It readied us, and was ton foul and polluted for use, Such as it was, how ever, wo luul to un It, for there wns nothing else, and wo were linking under tho flerco rays of the midsummer south ern sun, Wo prayed for water as wo prayed for food and for deliverance, Ezra II. Ripple. Colonel Rlpplo Is an authority on prison life In Andersonville, having de voted much tlmo in tho preparation of an Illustrated lecture on this subject, which has been heard several times in this city. His collection of rebel prison pictures, drawn from descriptions furnished by him nnd fellow-prisoners whom he in terested In the work, is one of tho most Interesting, as well as unique, art col lections extant.
