BEAUTIES OF THE GREAT MUSIC DRAMA
..
hllrae Conception o( the Master II
laminated by the Intelligence
4 Skill of the Conductor
and HU Asalataata.
Wagner Is sublime; Damrosch. Is charm
Ins; a combination of these with a master
fully trained orchestra of thorough mu
sicians, and singers of capability is music.
Not charming, or Inter-Minn or pleasing
music, or any of these adjectives Just mu
sic. Wagner was the man among music
ian! who could must marly make sound
Interpret sense. , This Is a matter of com
mon knowledge. Damrosch Is a man among
conductors who has few equals In this
country In expressing what the master
wrote. This la also well known. The mu
aio of last night was the treat of the year
for professional musicians and for many
music lovers. Many, on the other hand,
while enloylng the program as an Intellec
tual treat, wouid prefer as a regulirr source
of music the popular band concert.
Mr. Damrosch's Now York Symphony or
chestra plays with the highest degree of
technical precision and with refinement,
force and sentiment. The leader himself
shows his years of experience In the grace
ful and muslclanly way In which he wields
the baton. The sixty players of the or
chestra ar all within his reach and re
spond to his comm.md as only the per
fectly drilled can, to the command of the
assured and able leader. The strings have
n admirable breadth and smoothness of
tone, and the wood and brass were such as
have been heard, alas, too Infrequently In
Omaha.
If anything is due to comparison, it
might be said that the singers are not In
the rank of the Instrumentalists. Not thrit
the vocalists are not artists, but they do
not so thoroughly succeed In pleasing the
audience as do the rich tones of the or
chestra. Began with "Tannhaoaer."
Mr. Damrosch opened the program with
tho overture of "Tannhauser." The noble
chorus of the pilgrims rose and swelled to
its height and dwindled away, leaving Tann
hauser to the capable Venus and her song
of passion; then returned at the last with
Tannhauser returning to meet the dead
Elizabeth. This familiar overture of the
master served as a bridge to carry the
r.ewly-come worshipers to the little known
masterpiece of Wagner's maturer years.
Mr. Damrosch preceded the "Parsifal"
music with a few concise remarks on the
theme of tho music drama, and in this way
explained each part of the music glvin.
This put the hearers In sympathy with the
action of the opera and gave them a chance
to realise the wonderful way In which the
sounded note was set to express the pan
slon, the love, the remorse and the agony
of the story.
"If I venture some explanation." said Mr.
Damrosch, "It Is not to turn the concert
Into a lecture room, but that you may have
the atmosphere of the master's swan song.
Some ssy of 'Parsifal' that It la the mast
er's confession of faith. This is too nar
row a definition; 'Parsifal' Is more prop
erly Wagner's embodiment of Christianity,
or rather of mediaeval Christianity In mu
sic. For years he cherished the Idea of
using some portions of the scripture for
the music drama and when he found that
this was Impossible he utilised one of the
legends which cluster round the Holy Orall
to embody ttie sentlmerft tr trnrlsllarilfy."
What "Parsifal' Trachea.
Mr. Damrosch told how Wagner with tho
rare aktll of the poet had utilised the leg
end In showing the development of char
acter from a dull Ignorant child to the
knowledge of the higher responsibilities of
life. The quickening Impulse of the opera
was the great Chrlatian Idea of pity for
the sufferings of others. Before the pre
lude he explained the three Ideas which It
Interprets divine love In the self -sacrifice
and redemption of man; faith, and hope.
The prelude with Its themes of the suffer
ing of Christ and the sturdy militant faith
of the knights with Its half Gregorian tones
wrapped the audience in stillness. The sec
ond number wan the processional of the
Knights of the Orall wherein the knights
march to the Holy Eucharist. There Is a
rhythmatlc phrase In this, with a subdued
martial tone and the sound of chimes.
The third number, the song of Amfortas,
and the divine prophesy Introduced one of
the soloists,- Mr. Francis Archambault and
the women's voices. The singer had the
song of the king after he is wounded In
the side with the sacred lance and filled
with remorae. The voices of the women be
hind the scenes were effective.
Srroad Art Is Lighter.
The muslo of the second act la entirely
different In tone from the religious tone and
the suffering of the first. Gracious har
monies and flowing measures represent tho
flp.wer maidens In the magical tropical gar
den of the wicked Kilngsor. Here went the
young Parsifal and the song of the flower
maidens and of Parsifal was most effect
ively rendered. Mr. l. Beddoe sang Parsi
fal In h voice of pure tenor quality and
expressiveness and the flower, maidens were
Mine. Mlhr-Iiardy and Misses Maud Ken
nedy, Margaret Crawford, Katherlne
Wheeler, Bertha Harmon and Estelle
Bloomneld. The music most wonderfully
shows the picture and the sis voices were
most excellently balanced and pleasing.
Mine, Mlhr-Iiardy then- gave the song of
Kundry,
The third act Is again different from the
others, the serene happiness of nature in
Its freedom froru din after the atonement
of Good Friday being typified In the muaio.
It closes like a benediction. The violin
solo of Mr. David Mannes was beautifully
played.
The last number from the s.ene where
Parsifal, the new king of the Holy Grail
heals the wound of King Amfortas after
the latter has given way to k frensy of
despair and remorse, gave Messrs. Heddoe
and Archambault a great opportunity to
display their vocal powers.
"Parslfsl," the last of the master's music
dramas, was completed In 1SK2. being the
work of five years of 111 health, the last
of which was dona In Italy. The opera
was produced the same year In Beyreulh
fcix(en perfiu-msncea and these were the
only ones that Wagner lived to see. This
last work established the festival theater
at Beyrouth which had been the great
musician's pet enterprise. He had begun
to build It In 1871 on land granted for the
purpose, and the project would have failed
but foi Ludwlg II.. who furnished the
money.

Society made a field night of It. and tho

later found its way to supper tables at
various places. In the body of the theater
were seated nearly all those who answer
when the roll of Omaha s smart folks Is
called, snd many who are not often seen
at the theater were noticed, lured out by
the promise of an intellectual as well as
a sensual treat. Those who occupied boxes
were;

WANTS CHURCHA DEMOCRACY
Chancellor Boehtel of Dealer Talks
of Keeded Legislation In Meth
odist Government.
Chancellor H. A. Buchtcl of the Uni
versity of Denver delivered an address lsst
evening at Reward Street Methodist Epis
copal church on the subject of "Legisla
tion Needed by the Next General Metho
dist Episcopal Conference," to be held at
Los Angeles In May. He said;
"A new departure Is demanded by our
times In Methodism, a change of policy to
meet the conditions of the times. It seems
to me a disgrace that with a membership
of over 3.0O,0O0 we have made a gain of
but lOO.onn In the last year. Why Is It that
we have rot made a greater gain? A mu
tuality of labor by the pastor and people
will make the church grow In after time.
We ought to make the church a pure de
mocracy. The time has passed when we
can distrust our people. Each Isy delegate
to a general conference represents about
10.0CO members. Our lay representation at
the general conference should be equal to
the ministers. There should be a lay rep
resentative from every church In America
according to Its membership. The lay rep
resentatives shiuld have charge of the bus
iness of the church exclusively snd the
ministers have cnarge only of the minis
terial functions. If we had twice as many
lay delegates at the genersl conference as
ministers It would he better for all con
cerned. Were this so there would be bet
ter salaries and they would be better paid.
All church officers should be elected by the
congregations. Our bishops should be
elected at our annual conferences, and mis
slonary bishops should be native to the
country where they are to serve. Our pres
ent bishoprics are but archbishoprics. Prac
tically we have no bishops. The bishops
should be brought Into closer contact with
the ministers snd the churches. Bishops
should be retired by the age limit at 66, 68
or 72 years. The general conference tak?a
Itself too seriously. Methodism is strong
In men. We must maintain our own great
cd icatlonal Institutions and above all we
must Infuse more life Into our church af
fairs In accord with these modern times."
At the meeting of Hanscom Park Meth-
odlst Episcopal church Sunday morning
the sum of 11.260 was raised for church pur
poses out ef $1,500 asked for, and the
church board guaranteed the remainder.
The church Is now out of debt, the mort
gage paid off and It Is in a high way to
Increased material and spiritual prosperity.

Governor Mickey, who was muatered Into

was forced to cut short fils speech so as to
be able to catch a train to Lincoln. Ho
commended the alms of the T'nlon Vet
erans' union and said that nothing pleased
him more thsn seeing a body of old sol
diers, especially soldiers of the civil war.
"No man who loves his country," he
tld, "wishes to reckon his services by
dollars and cents. We must not complain
of what we do not get from our country;
we must ask ourselves how much have we
given out. Many old soldiers who are now
getting but a meager pension ought to be
having more, and many who are obtaining
pensions ought to have none. Mlstskes are
bound to arise In a matter of this sort. But
I wish to say that It Is Impossible for the
United States government to ever be able
to pay back In money the blood and sacri
fice of the civil war. These are things men
do not value from a monetary point of
view."

coming city officials be put on a competi
tive basis. This refers only to the surety
bonds of officials where the city pays the
premium. This mo. Ion was adopted and
the finance committee and city attorney
will make terms with bond companies.
Then came the official canvass Welsh
moved that the mayor appoint a canvass
ing board. Mayor Koutsky named Welsh,
Adklns nnd Quecnan. Then Adkins sug
gested that Hoctor be allowed to name two
men and Koutsky two, these to remain In

CITY OFFICIALS IN BOXES
Mayor and Others Attend Play for
Benefit of the Firemen's
Fnnd.
One of the most satisfactory things about
the performance of David Hlggins In
"His Last Dollar" In the benefit to the
Omaha firemen at the Krug theater last
night was an audience that filled the house
to the doors. But that was noi all. The
performance proved Itself worthy of every
good thing that has been said about it
and went off with a swing and rhythm
that was productive of the most enthusi
astic applause and satisfaction on the
Tart of everyone present. One feature of
the evening particularly pleasing to the
Art-men and their friends was the ren
dition by the orchestra of "The Omaha
Fire Department March," composed espe
cially for the occasion by Prof. Thlele,
leader of the orchestra. It is 4 truly de
scriptive piece. In which the fire horns,
alarms and many more characteristic
noises of the department are pleasingly and
harmoniously mingled, and was given
round after round of applause.
Mayor Moorcs lent his presence to the
occasion and occupied a box with the
other members of the Fire and Police
board, while another box was occupied
by Chief 8alter and some of the other
city officials. The performance will be
repeated tonight and Wednesday night for
the same object.
