Week I'lcnunnt Uvpnln at
Minor MRanllttilc.
As was to be expected , the record ot to-
clcty events for the past v/cck shows a de
cided falling off , which U directly attributa
ble to the depressing Influence ! of the Lenten
ncason. Thu greater part of th& list of events
will bo seen to be taken up with Individual
comings and goings , although there were at
least two good-sized afternoon entertain
ments and many pleasant luncheons , din
ners and supper * of on Informal kind , which ,
It would seen , arc not prohibited oven to
the strattc.if ( seels. Giand opera Is also a
popular and decoious Lpnti-n diversion , as
appears from the number of Omaha people
who have been In Chicago lately. Although
theio have not been enough of UIOBC to war
rant tbo belief thul Italian opcrn would bo
n lemuucrntlve vcntuto In Onjaha. there have
been so many that If they could have been
nil assembled together at one time , they
at the Audi
would u vo filled several boxes
torium. If Chicago had patronized Its own
opera In proportion ns generously an Omaha
did , thorn would have been no complaint or
light business.
Out > of the most curious cnsos of self-do-
nlal and mortification of the flesh wh ch the
present holy time has brought to light is
that of a young girl of this city , who , being
pursued by the unwelcome attentions of u
male admit of to a degree which bordered oil
nomvcutlon , nnd being of a mild and devout
character , I'nwllllng to offend or wound ,
took clever advantage of the penitential
ecason to secure at least a temporary respite.
She contrived to Inspire her swain with n
renewed belief that slio was not wholly In
different to him. and then , having been bid
den by her spiritual adviser to give up something -
thing ncnr and dear to her. she gently brplto
the news to her admirer that It was for her
Botil's good that she must not see hid face
for forty days. Since this was so , the young
man , being of a credulous and unsuspicious
turn , had no option but to accept his bitter
lot. which ho did with what grace ho might.
And the girl Is undergoing other and more
genuine penance for the fulfillment of her
Lenten vows , and considering herself well
repaid for the sacrifice.

Frecdinan delightfully entertained
Mrs. Herman
tained about twenty-five , of her friends Sat
urday afternoon In the parlors of the Hotel
Droxcl. the occasion being Mrs. Frcedrnan's
birthday anniversary. The hostess added u
charming feature to the afternoons enter-
talnment , which slio called "Old Friends In
Now Attlro , " by the designating of each
guest as they arrived with the name of some
noted character. A card with the name
upon It was pinned on the shoulder ; this wai
referred to by the others In conversation ,
but not examined by the wearer. From the
remarks addressed to her she was to guess
whether slio was Impersonating Mrs. McKln-
ley or one of the cabinet ladles or some
local celebrity. Also cards wcro pcescd ,
which bore the names ot authors and poets ,
to the number of about twenty-five , but In a
very new and Rtrango form , and the contest
In guessing was most animated. An hour
was granted for the guessing , at the end of
which tlmo the cards were checked oft and
prkcs awarded to the most successful con
testant. An elegant luncheon was served
In the dining room , which was beautiful In
Ito adornments , the prevailing colors through
out being green and white. A long scarf
of green plush extended the length of the
table In the center , bordered with smlla < c and
plants dotted here and there ; and with the
old of the silver candelabra with green and
white candles lighted , gave an air of ele
gance throughout. Music was discoursed
from a sytnphonlon.

Peters held the opinion , based upon many
years' residence and experience In this city ,
that the outlook for the sale of tickets was
ouch as to Indicate a large loss to the so
ciety If It Incurred the expense ot an or
chestra. It Is unfortunate that art must be
governed by the laws of commerce , but the
only way In which an organization can bo
perpetuated Is to so manage Its affairs that
It can pay Its bills. Because It was deemed
Impossible to sell tickets enough to pay the
orchestra Its services were dispensed with.
The concert Itself substantiated the advisa
bility of this conclusion. "The Dream ot
Jubal" was given up and the three numbers
sung by the society were substituted In Its
place ,
The second point Is the tempo at which
"Tho Heavens Are Telling" was conducted.
Dr. Baetens refers to the metronome and
the marking In the score. "The Creation"
was written during the years 1706 and 1797.
It was first produced In 170D. Haydn died
In the year 1809. The metronome was In
vented In 1815. Therefore the marking could
not have been made by the composer. It
Is simply somebody's opinion concerning the
tempo , and while It Is without doubt worthy
of consideration , it really carries very little
authority with It. Conductors frequently
differ in their opinion concerning the tempo
of a composition. The writer has sung the
for Insertion In your paper , but allow Mr.
Moore the monopoly ot It to blow his own
trumpet , trying to make the public believe
that ho Is the musician "par excellence , "
whereas ho proves to tils' musician that he U
not ? CHARLES BAETENS.
* *
In Dr. Baetens' criticism ot the rendering
of "Tho Heavens Are Telling" he empha
sizes two points , the first of which Is the
absence of an orchestra. It was the original
Intention ot the Musical society to produce
at the Urso concert a work entitled "The
Dream of Jubal , " In which the orchestra Is
perhaps the most Important factor ; the so
prano nnd tenor of the Urso company were
to do the solo parts. Shortly after the con
tract was signed a meeting was held of the
o.llcers and executive committee of the so
ciety and the ways and means of managing
the concert were thoroughly discussed. The
part of Wotan In the final scene In "Die
Walkure" under the direction of Theodore
Thomas and Anton Scldl. Mr. Thomas takes
the tempo very much quicker than Mr. Soldi
takes It and in one part beats four to the bar
for some forty bars where Mr. Scldl beats
eight to the bar. Differences of opinion upon
such matters are frequent. . . . ,
The doctor refers to the fact that the
editor of The Bco has Invited the musicians
of this city to contribute upon maters ot
Interest to Ita columns. Some few "weeks
since Invitations were sent to a number of
musicians asking tliem to
the best known ,
contribute short articles upon the scope and
value of musical criticism. Three , Including
Dr. Baetens , responded as requested. Two
others wrote personal letters to ths editor
disclaiming that their opinions would bo of
public Interest , and Incidentally firing a few
wrmless shots at the critics and the management -
somewhat as Dr. Baetens
ment of the paper ,
tias now don ? .
Dr Baetens Is a man of years , experience ,
musicianship and he has had experience as
a player In several great orchestral ? . Ho Is
worthy of admiration and Indeed of venera-
Tlon and It Is not the Intention of the writer
to retaliate by saying . ? ? ? ? | ' , ; '
musician. But when ho
of him as a man or
launches out upon the rea of his emotions ,
nnd begins
legitimate criticism
when ho drops
gins to vituperate the critic and the newspaper -
with hla claim to
paper * , he parts company
earnest attention , his opinions lose their
becomes sad y weak-
value and his position
ened. A valuable judgment Is a calm judg
ment.
Musical criticism IB a subject concerning
which different opinions may very naturally
exist. H may have several objects , and H
nay select from several means to attain
those objects. Newspaper criticism in musl-
cal matters should , In our opinion , do two
things : First , it should Inform the public
fully concerning the facts Involved In whatever -
ever IB under consideration ; second. It should1
endeavor to build up the good and eradicate
the bad. A newspaper Is a power. It Is
an active force In the great world of minds
and hearts , t exerts a wldeipread influence ,
t la a responsible agent nnd wclgho well all
ta policies , and , If It Is worthy of the respect
and confidence of a community , It la ever
anxious for the public good nnd laboring In
ts service. The musical critic of The lice
ma sought to be truthful and fair. It lu
ila earnest endeavor to make the musical
lepartment worthy of public confidence and
of tha great paper of which It Is a part.
There never was a performance that was
above criticism , nnd any performance which
can interest an intelligent audience for one
or two hours Is certainly not beneath It.
ndbcrlmlnato gush Is untrue , unfair , to
wbllo and performers , debasing to the de
velopment of art. destructive of the aelf-
respect of the critic , unworthy of a great
> aper and productive of nothing but inordl-
late vanity In those over whom It Is poured ,
lonest opinion , based upon a broad knowl
edge of the subject in general , and of a
> erformanco in particular , if received In a
iroper spirit , stands on the truth , deala
ustly by public and performers , builds up
be art , strengthens the critic , and gives
valuable advice and encouragement to tlioso
vho have already risen so high aa to come
vlthln the province of Its Interest and atten-
lon. A critic may laugh without malice ,
condemn without enmity , commend without
rony , analyze without cruelty and praise
without humiliation. It la not more likely
bat bo should bo jealous of hla fellowu than
they of him. Ho cannot prevent untrue ,
unfair , or malicious interpretations being pro-
nounccd upon his writing. Ho can only con
tinue In his work for the public good without
fear before his enemies , or weakness before
his friends , and such Is the policy ot the
musical department of The Bee , and to this
policy and In this great work It Invites the
aid of every ono who has the welfare and
advancement of music at heart.

The following is an extract from a criti
cism published In the Berlin Boersenzcltung
of February 1 , 1897 , commenting on a con
cert given In the Berlin Sing Academic In
commemoration of the 100th birthday of the
celebrated German composer , Franz P. Schu
bert : "In this concert our public had the
pleasure of making the exceedingly sympa
thetic acquaintance with a young soprano ,
MUs Mary Muenchhoff of Omaha , Neb. , who
sang a number of Schubert's eongs In a
voice clear as spring water and well trained ,
free from all roughness , offering In the purely
lyric numbers executions especially pure mid
harmonious. The latitude of that budding
voice Is yet Insufficient to render succcsb-
fully 'Gretchen at the Spinning Wheel , ' a
deficiency , however , which age will lessen
from day to day. "

About ono person in every four ru.Teni
from some form of rectal disease. 1io : most
common and annoying U Itching piles , Indi
cated by warmth , slight moisture and In
tense , uncontrollable Itching In the parts af
fected.
The usual treatment has been some slmpla
ointment or salvo which sometimes glvo
temporary relief , but nothing like a perma
nent euro can bo expected from uuch auyor-
Ilclnl treatment.
The only permanent euro for Itching piles
yet discovered la the Pyramid Pile Cure , cot
only for itching piles , but for every other
form of piles , blind , bleeding or protruding.
The first application gives Instant relief and
the continued use for a short time causes a
permanent removal of Iho tumors or the
small parasites which cause the Intense ItchIng -
Ing and discomfort of Itching plica.
Many physicians for a long time supposed
that the remarkable relief afforded by the
Pyramid Pile Cure was because It was tup-
posed to contain cocaine , opium or similar
drugs , but such Is not the case. A recent
careful analysis of the remedy showed It to
bo absolutely free from any cocaine , opium ,
or In fact any potionoua ! , Injurious drugs
whatever.
For this reason the Pyramid Pile Cure U
probably the only pile cure extensively rec
ommended by physicians , because It U HO
Eafe , o prompt In the relief afforded and so
far as known the only positive cure for plica
except a surgical operation ,
In one year the Pyramid Pile Cure has be
come tbo best known , the tiafctit and tha
moit extensively told of any pile cure before
the public.
Nearly all druggists now sell It at GO cents
and $1 per package.
Address the Pyramid Co. , Albion , Mich. ,
