Predicts Omaha Will Become Great Musi cal Center. A leal, honest-to-goodness Russian pianist and composer—you'll find him on the second floor of the Mickle mu sic house. He is Benjamin Adamowski, for mer instructor in tile Imperial Hus sion conservatory in Petrograd. M. Adamowski is a small, lean man with twinkling, yet deep and pene- , trating dark eyes, aquiline nose, de termined chin and an unruly shock of fast graying hair, although the owner is but 35. His laugh is a hearty one. - “You wish to know aflbut music, Russia and me?" he smiled, motion ing to an easy chair and offering a cigaret.' “Your newspapers In America are wonderful," the musician went on. "they see and hear everything. And you never give way on a story un til every possible source of Informa tion Is sounded. It is different In Europe." Receives Appointment. After a while the story came out. Benjamin Adamowski was born In Odessa, in southern Russia, on the Black sea and came of a family In what Is known as the “lnteligencia” or educated class. Until 12 years of age he attended private schools in his own city. Then he went to Petro grad and entered the conservatory. But unlike our schools of music, stu- ! dents there, took a full university j course at the rame time. “The Russian government, under the regime the czar," remarked the professor, “spent more money for musical education than for all other branches of learning.” When 21 he graduated and was an- I pointed by the czar as instructor In | the imperial branch school, or pre- ] paratory school of the conservatory ] in the city of Ekatrenoslav, province , of Scharson, also In south Russia. Then, the war. The young profes- j sor gave concerts and recitals and ; directed military bands until the rev- | olution. Recalled to Petrograd. Kerensky, during bis brief dicta torship, recalled the musician to the Petrograd conservatory where he was teaching at the time of the over threw of the provisional government by the soviets. Ordered to remain at his position, though without the for mer pay—all bills being paid In food and clothing—M. Adamowski took up the work of compulsory Instruction of youthful revolutionists. “I’m JUft as satisfied,” hoddtd the newcomer, who speaks fluent Eng lish. "that they paid me In food an.1, and were private. Rev. A. C. Hull of the Baptist church officiating. Louis Toll#. Grand Island—Louia Tolls. 51. employed at a pool hall, died in a hospital.

Five months ago his request was granted and six weeks ago he landed in the United States. In his permit it was stipulated that he {our America, giving recitals, and should send a portion of the proceeds back to the soviet government. But will he? Religion Abolished. “Not at all,” ho admitted, shaking his head. ‘T would have promised any thing to get out of Russia, but I am prepared to take out my first papers to become an American citizen now.” Religion in any form, the professor said, had been abolished by a decree of Lenine and education was free if parents wished their children to be good little soviets. The difficulty is that many do not wish this. Another drawback is In the peasant class, which is unable to work the land given it, formerly belonging to titled nobility, because of the lack of mod ern machinery. Travel is slow, accommodations do not exist and several railway lines have discontinued service because of the expense necessary to repair them. Work, what little there Is, Is com pulsory. "Spies Infest the country, more than they did under czarlsm. I.ikes Omaha. "Tlie soviet system is doomed, soon er or later. It is too self-centered, it takes into consideration no wishes but its own. The time will come when the heads of the government will realize that they must stabilize their form of ruling to be agreeable to oth er nations, especially the l nlted States.” M. Adamowski intends to make his home in Omaha and open a studio. Part of his time will be takftn up, how ever, in recital work throughout the country. He will give a recital in this city in the near future. ”1 like Omaha," smiled the musi cian, "it is so busy, so full of en thusiasm and yet so human. It will some day be a great musical cen ter.” _ Pheron; treasurer, F. .T. Patton, and sec retary manager, F. F. Roderick.
