Koveral weeks ago the i-titoi-prlsltiK suporlntc-ndcnt of the Omaha schools laid heforo the Hoard of I'Mneatlon the feasibility of havltit ; the school children , under tlio super vision of tbo teacliur of music , sinj , ' into a iitioiioj.'rapli tiiul pivp.ire a iintn- bet-of Cylinders of music that could be sent iilonir with the Nehr.iska exhibit to the World's fair. The board thought well of the plan and it was agreed to keep the matter quiet until the work was well under way , so that other cities would not have time to fol low the same plan and thus make thu attrac tion too common. Mr. FiUp.urich has the work now almost accomplished and in a few days n score or more of choice samples of music from the public schools of this thriving city will be wound around cylinders ready to be shipped to Chicago to bi-como one of the most unique and pleasing attractions at the fair. The Higii school implls snnu Into the phonograph graph yesterday and succeeded In producing some very good samples of sweet sound in the wonderful little preserver of the human voice. It is not an easy matter to get good samples of chorus sltulng in a phonograph , especially where there tire fifteen or twenty parties wodudn' , ' the music , for the reason that it is dllllcult for them to nss'.tmo the proper position before the instrument. In this effort the phonograph company has fur nished a thirty -six-inch reuelvcr.und it seems lo do the work \ory well. After selections liavo'beensung Into the in strument they are tested nml If there tire an.\ bad delects the wjrk is done over again. It is the intention to have the entire system of musical training in the schools illustrated by this means. Samples of the work will bo recorded all tlio way from the primary rooms , where the little ones are just Ic-arn- lug luw to run the tlrst few notes of the scale , tip to the last class in the Murh school , where dillleult and classical music Is sung. Superintendent Fitzpatrick and Miss Arnold are deeply interested in the success of the venture and feel very eonlident that It will he a unique anddclightfil feature of llto Nebraska exhibition.
