I am clad that I mi. tint nrenent at tho presentation of tho oratorio "Samson ana ueiuati" last week In Chicago, for I should linvo felt sorrv for tit n nnlrlt nf "cringing" ot my fellow countrymen. Read this, i clip it from tho Musical Leader, edited by Florenco French, tho well known writer and critic: "If wo nro to havo oratorio in English, then let it bo all in English. There is no question but the nerformnnen nt 'Sim.nn and Delilah' at tbo Auditorium suffered materially from tho fact that two of tho chief soloists sang in French, whllo the remaining artists sang In English, and the choruses or, rather, such words of tho chorus as wcro distinguishable wero un doubtedly English. Tho nolvclot nerfnrm- ance is absolutely unnecessary nnd will nover ue accepted. Audiences must under stand, If thero Is any possibility ot so doing, what tho artists aro singing about; every word ought to bo clean cut and intelligible The absurdity of the situation Is striking at times, Samson making violent, desperate lovo n sibilant French to Delilah, who tempts him In uncompromising English. An unenlightened music-lover observed, nittinr- Just In front of me: 'What aro thoso two ioiiows jauuertng auout7' While tho ques tion is not appllcablo to tho dignity of an oratorio, still thero was a irreat deal nf truth in tho question." Aro Americans not patriotic enough to demand tho use of their own language? When will they be? They pay hotter for music than any other country on tho globe, as is ovldenced by the fact that tho high est priced artists arc glad to have Ameri can booklnss. Why, then, should wo not havo good English sung to us? Of courso I admit tho difficulty of securing good trans lations, but I do not admit tho impossi bility thorcof. Thero nro great scholars of nil languagos in this country. Ocncrous remuneration will, I fell confident, securo good transla tions. Tho absolutely lltoral translation, of courso, cannot bo made, hut a literary work of cxcollenco In tho way of a more or les3 frco translation, from tho pen of a man whoso reputation and tlmo aro worth much money, would' bo moro ncccptablo than a foreign language, or, as I myself havo heard In tho Orau company (I bellovo it was), three different languagos sung In ono opera In one evening. But, as to tho caso In point. Tho singing of an oratorio In a foreign languago Is In excusable. In opera It may bo possible to advanco as an excuse tho superb scenlo spectacle, tho gorgeous costuming, tho pre sentation of a scries of pictures, chrono logically correct, and also tho great fact that It tho cast Is mado up of artists the acting will lend to the muslo a great aid in tho way of Interpretation. But to sing a leading part of an oratorio In a dress suit, on a concort platform, with out becnery, costume or action Is an effrontery on tho part of tho singer and an Imposition on tho part of the management. Thu musical critic, who would refuse to condemn such n proceeding Ib unworthy of his high callng. Ho is not doing Ills duty to Americans nor to American music, Tlieso may bo hard words, but time will prove that they are noun the less truthful. Mlsw Edith Tobltt, tho very efficient and industrious young woman who has charge of tho Omaha public library, Is not without her share of annoyances. Tho most recent and tho moit unworthy Instanco Is tho publication of an article In a recent Issuo of an Omaha weekly, written ovidontly without any thought and evincing a most liunontablo ignorance of tho library shclvos. This article states that "a movement Is on foot In our city, headed by Mr. and Mrs. I)orglum, to Induco our library board to give some attention to the accumulation of a musical library, and It Is to be hoped that this wilt bn done." Just thlm of III Omaha has walle.d all thcao years for Mr. and Mrs. llorglum to come from Paris nnd head a movement for the accumulation of a musical library. Now Mr. and Mrs, llorglum nio both delightful people and grod mUBlclaiiB, and Mrs. llor glum, who has Just within tho last few months taken up her residence hero, In a splendid French scholar. No ono would resent moro keenly than thoko people tho misrepresentation contained in the article.

Tho Omaha Bco mado a vigorous crusads through this column soma years ago tor a musical department In tho library, and tho crusade was systematically carried on with Mr. Victor Hoscwatir on tho Library hoard and tho musical column of Tho Hoo, writ ten by tho present scribe, calling attention to the books then on tho shelves. Miss Tobltt went to no end of troublo in gathering the necessary Information for tho bcok committee's consideration, nnd many great ami vuluablo works were added. Again, nflcr an Interval of a year or two, Ilia matter was once moro taken up, nnd now the Omaha Public Library beasts of a muslcul section which would do credit to cities with five times tho population. And tho end Is not yet, Is my reader aware th.it he can find on tho library shelves tha full text, solo and chorus parts, and piano accompaniment, ar ranged from orchestral r,corc, of tho follow ing operas: "Ernaul," "Parsifal," "Lohen grin," "Lucia di , Lammcrraoor," "Illgol Icto," "Barber of Seville," "Marrlngo ot Figaro" ("Nozzo dl Figaro"), "Tann hatiscr," "Manon" ("Massenet"), "Norma." "La Sonnambuln." "Lucretln Borgia," "Fra Dlavolo," "Bohemian Olrl," "Carmen," "Faust, Romeo and Juliet," "Cavallerla Itustlcana," "Alda," "II Trovalore," "La Trnvlata," "Othello," "Ootterdammcrung," "Das Ithclngold," "Siegfried," "Dlo Wnlktiro" and "Tristan and Isolde." Is tho reader aware that ho can havo the uso ot any of thoso operas for two weeks with privilege of renowal, nnd that thereby tho public library Is offering a splendid means of education? Tho oratorios aro represented bv the. "Messiah," "Elijah" nnd "Creation," all of which aro out ot circulation at present! Thero aro also tho standard works of Upton, and of Elson, tho great organ treatise, a standard authority, "Tho Organ," by Hopkins and Itlmbault, a mas terly and cxhaustlvo history of the origin nnd construction of the Instrument. Helm holtz, Zahm nnd Tyndnll aro represented by their great works on sound. Berlioz' profound nnd complete work on "Instru mentation" Is thero. So is Dudley Buck's largo work on "Choir Accompaniment," and nlBo Lavlgnac's unique nnd excellent work, "Tho Music Dramas ot Richard Wag ner." Well, I cannot begin to onumornto In tho short spaeo nt my disposal the dozens of excellent works, but I could go on with tho list of only the best, tho most reliable and the acknowledged authority on nil sides of music, and nil several columns, in their review. Go and sco them. Tilts will glvo the reader an Idea of what Miss Tobltt and tho library board havo dono. All honor to them. And It is certainty annoying to havo nn artlclo appear in an Omaha paper, by an Omaha man, stating that "In Newark, N. J., the books on music in tho public library nro to bo brought together for readier consul tation," and that "Brookllno, Mass., .pos sesses not only a collection of books about music, but a number of niUBlcnl works, ora torios, operas, enscmblo music, collections ot songs and Instrumental solos, and to this they add a number of tho best music maga zines." This Is bad enough, but tho self-sufficiency and arroganco ot tbo following )s overwhelming: "It Is to bo hoped that Omaha will not ho ono ot theso" (towns which neglect musical literature), "now that tho matter has been suggested, for tho members ot tho library board nro certainly Intelligent," etc., etc. I may add that I hopo that the library board will pleaso consider Itself Intelligent, "now that attention has been called" to tho fact by a gentleman who upholds Newark, N. J., and Btookllne, Mass., as against Omaha, becauso he has never taken tho pains to ascertain what Omaha has. I am advised that, beginning tonight, the ovenlng services at Trinity cnthedral will bo fully choral and that tho priests' part will bo Intoned by Bishop Williams.
