At the tlmo ot hli appointment , the latter part of last month I'rof Klmball outlined his Idea ot the gctv eral plan on which the music ot the cxposl tlon should be conducted , which was se forth In The 13co at the time. Since thei I'rof Klmball has been endeavoring lp maki arrangements { or the preliminary stepa It cnrrjliig this plan to a RUcccsalul Issue , bu tbo first step was only taken yesterday when he appeared bcforo the executive com mltteo and explained his plan at length nm received the approval of the committee. Hi then named Thomas J. Kelly ot Omaha to taki charge of the work of organizing the loca chorus and drilling It in the music to bi selected for the occasion. Thla also mo with the approval of the committee and Mr Kelly was duly Installed. OUTLINES HIS PLANS. After this was accomplished Prof. Klmbal was seen nt the Mlllard hotel and went more Into detail In regard to his plan. "I pro pose , " said he. "to have a surles at chora concerts during the entire exposition and tc Invlto the famous choral societies of al our wcetorn cltlis to como hero and glvi complete works with the assistance of tin best obtainable artiste As a nucleus foi this work I wish to organize a local chorus composed of the singers of Omaha , Soutt Omaha and Council Hluffs , to the number o about 200. There will also bo engaged at orchestra which shall bo thoroughly compe tent to do any work which It may bo callet upon to do and which shall bo sulllclont In Itself , to attract muslc-lovlnc people bj Its concerts at stated Intervals. In eacl : branch ot this orchestra there will bo solo Ists cJ Msh artistic merit. "Mr. Kelly will commence organizing the local chorus at once. The members of the chorus will bo given Instruction In the music they will sing and I shall como hero occa sionally , as jny duties will permit , and re hearse them , but the bulk of the work will fall upon Mr. Kelly ui > to the time the ex position opens. The members of the chorus will bo given free admission to the audi torium on the days when concerts are tc bo given , and this will give them the great educational advantage of heating more con certs nnd moro great soloists In a given length of time than would bo possible In an > other way. I-'or thceo advantages each mem ber of the chorus will bo charged a fee of ? 3 to defray some of the Incidental expenses preliminary to the work. "I wish to Invlto all the representative singers of this city to unlto with this chorus I hope that there will be hearty and ptompt co-operation on the part of our homo singers and that we shall be able to show to visitors ami music lovera that home talent can vie with that ot other western cities and with that of the most effete regions ot the cast. "An exposition chorus book will he com piled for the use of the chorus and this will serve as an Interesting memento of the occa sion which every member of the chorus will wish to preserve " , GHORAI.I MASTqn WELL KNOWN.
