THE OMAHA DAILY BKBt MONDAY , APBIL 4 , 1898. 'OBSERVANCE ' OF PALM SUNDAY Commemoration of the Entry of Christ Into Jerusalem. CATHOLIC CHURCHES GIVE OUT PALMS Great CotiKwrnHonn nt H ( . I'lillo- and SI. John' * Hear the Slorr of < lto Savior' * I'nmiloB. IB Word nnd Sonic. Usual Palm Sunday aervlcei were held at St. Phllomcna'8 cathedral yesterday morning at 10:30 : o'clock. Solemn high raaas wag colc- brated and branches of paln > were dlstrlb- utc < I among the congregation and 4 blessed by the priest. The music of the mass was well rendered by the choir. The services were unusually well attended , the seating capacity of the cathedral being Inaufflclcnt to accom modate all who were present. In accordance with the custom of the Catholic church on Palm Sunday no sermon was preached , but Hev. Father McDevltt , the pastor , read In place of It the story of the passion of Christ. Ho prefaced the scripture with a brief explanation that the Savior was not compelled to undergo his great rtacrlflce , but did so In order to teach future genera tions lhat they should cheerfully bear the orrows and burdens of thU life. There was a largo congregation In at tendance at the morning services of St. John's church yesterday , and the music was of unusual excellence. Heal palms were blessed Juat before the mass at 10:30 : o'clock by tlov. P. Rees aod were distributed to the people after the procession. The celebrant of the solemn high mass was Father Roos. Hev. Thomas Finn acted at the solemn high mass as deacon and Rev. B. Bergln served as sub- deacon. The solemn singing of the paa.'lon was performed by Revs. M. Bronsgeest. John Wclr and W. Whalen. Rev. Cl. McOovcrn acted as master at ceremonies , and ho was assisted by a number of acolytes robed In purple cassocks. AT TRINITY CATHEDRAL. Palm Sunday was very appropriately ob served at Trinity cathedral , although the sickness of Bishop Worthlngton Interfered with the original plan of having confirma tion. Dccn Fair was assisted In the services by Rev. Canon Doherty and Rev. R. D. Sterns , Canon Doherty preaching the sermon. The chancel was handsomely decorated with palms In memory of the triumphant entrance of Jesus Into Jerusalem , and Mr. Jules Luin- bard assisted by tire choir tang that beau tiful song , "Tne Palms. " Rev. Canon Dohccty based his sermon or Numbers 23-23. "The prophecies , " lie said , "reveal the Christian ctiurch and also the experiences of men. IJaalam was at the same time a prophet and a charlatan. He was much llko an English klog who was said tc novcr iy the silly thing and never do tin wise one. Solomon and others who have advised v vised men so well have been ttie wisest an < ! most foolish of mankind , naalam had one car toward heaven and the other to the earth ho had one hand outstretched toward Ooi ' end the other extended for a bribe. Durlnp 'hid life'he served himself nnd lu the end ' ho had to take of fila nelf-scrvlce. But desplti ' all his folly , ho v.'as a man or keen percep tion and spoke with great wisdom when hi raid : 'Who can number the fourth part o f Israel ; who can number the dust of Jacob ? Ho foresaw with accuracy the future wtilcl anoltod the Jews and their religion. " Dr. Doherty described the famous Joucne : llmt Jesus made from Ills humble homo a Bethany to Jerusalem on the sixth day before - fore the pacsovcr. Palestine was at that sea eon beautiful with the grceti of the troplca trees and everything contributed to the trl umph of that Journey. As Jesus looked eve ; the city He- could sqo all the homage tha was being paid to Him , and moreover all tin places In which He was soon to be humlll atcd and scorned weco visible. .Following Ihl victory was to rome disgrace1. His trlump ! was brief. All triumphs are bVlef. For a HttJi while on earth "we think we arc ( mppy am then revers'cs meet un. The only trlumpl which Is lasting Is that of the Christian found In Jesus Christ. If we be with Hln and Ho with us , we must succeed. To thi faithful the grave bas no victory and deatl no sting. "The Lord our Qed Is with us. ' eald Rev. Doherty. "He has Increased Hli numbers as Baalam predicted He would , an ( Ho has exalted the faithful ones to a post tlon on His right hand where there can bi no defeat nor failure. " 8U.VOAY AXOTHKEXPOSITION Ilov. Andrew ChrlMIe Ilroivn ninciiimci the OpenliiK Question. The theme of Rev. Andrew Chrlstl Brown's Sunday evening discourse at Kno : Presbyterian church was . "Ser.Ko and NOT sense About Sunday Closing. " Ho chose i text from 'Nchemlah xlll , 17 , "Then I con tended with the nobles and said to them What evil thing Is this that ye do that y > profane the Sabbath day ? " "Tho Transmlsslsslppl Exposition Is splcn did In Us conception , magulflcont In Id architecture and Is being carried successful ! ; to Us completion , " raid Rev. Dr. Brown. "A the work has progressed the question of Sun day opening has arisen and much Interest ha been manifested concerning this subject. "A certata successful business man of th city stated to mo that ho supposed that 1 would bo taken for granted that the gate would be closed , " snld Dr. Brown , "and tha Becms to mo tt > be a sensible , practical vlev to take of the question. Why should ther bo any contention on the subject ? We are j Christian nation and the bible Is the recog nlzed authority even In our courts of law The Sabbath Is -divine kistltutlon and al most a national one In America. For th Christian people of Omaha not to oppose thi transgression of the Uabbath would be to ad mlt that the devil has the right of way am that opposition would be futile. " The speaker next considered some of th arguments which are advanced In favor o Sunday opening. I regard to the statemen that many people desire to attend the ex pcaltlon on Sunday and that It Is no worse to them to go than It Is for them to have th deslro In their hearts , the speaker said tha wo are our brother's keeper and will be In , measure responsible for bis conduct. As t the exposition being kept open because It I of au educational nature ho said that It I not thought necessary to keep schools opei on Sunday and that their nature Is eminent ! more educational than the exposition woul he. JIo said further that the educatlona Influence of the exposition Is not splrltua nnd of a kind suitable to be Indulged In o the holy day.

And above all things , Dr. Drown emphasizes the duty of all Christians to pray for the closing of the exposition and to auk God to give the managers strength to resist all the Influences tbo prince of darkness may bring lo bear upon them. UUIO.4XCK OF THE CHII-DREW. Universal Hrothirhooit DlncnmK-n the Qacfttlon of Youthful Trial. The Universal Brotherhood devoted Itself yesterday to work among tbo children of the streets cod about forty of them were gathered In the society's rooms In the Sheely block. Halt an hour wao spent In an In formal talk by Luclen D. Copeland , presi dent of the society , and other members. In explaining the simple purpose of the orgnnl- ; atlca , Mr. CopcUnd made clear the fact hat all men were brothers and for that cason eald eac'.i one should try to help bis elghbor , Following this meeting the regular scs- lon of the society was held and methods f child training were dlfeussed. The prcsl- cnt eald that , as such strong future fac- era for good or evil , children of all classes ihould receive the solicitude of society. If , ho neglected children on the streets are not given nttentlon , ho said , they will prove a menace to good order and government. Tdey should bo taught to understand that jrotherhood Is a fact and nn active principle n nature and that we can no moro escape rom the kinship of humanity than , we can rom our own heredity. For thlo reason Mr. Copeland believed that whenever one wrcnged his fellow man he'lnjured humanity and Indirectly himself. "To make these things clear to children , " Mr. Copeland said , "they must bo taught patiently and encouraged to nsk questions. f they oeem to be ccatlaually asking 'Why ? ' ho trait Is Juat as otrongly developed In .heir elders , for we are constantly Inquiring .nto the rcoixms of things. We aak why It la that tlio golden rule should be observed ind why honesty Is the .best pallcy. All hose questions can be answered by thought- ul conslderatlcn , for I believe the human .ntellect Is capable of solving any problem which affects Its own destiny. The olngle reason under the two rules mentioned la .ho brotherhood of humanity , which knits all men together In a commco welfare and a common fate. Humanity must work out Its own redemptlcu until that millennium when men shall call each other brothers with no feeling of sentiment , but In recogol- loa of a real fact. " oii.vxuns ix i.i n HA it Y nxiLns. Penally for lletnlnlnuT llooUn Over Time IN Jlnli-rlallr Itfiluccil. A new set ot rules has been prepared nt .ho Omaha Public library which contalna several changes of Interest to the public. The system wan adopted by the Board of Directors at Us meeting last week and was rdercd In , effect on April 1. Ono change ot Importance Is In regard to fines for looks kept ove" 5mc. These have been reduced to 2 cents each for the first and second days In delinquency , retaining the penalty of G cents for each succeeding day. It was felt that a charge of'5 cents a day , amounting usually to 10 or' 15 cents before the bookholdcr could be Informed ol ils delinquency and attempt to atone for It , was rather o hardship upon a busy public. The fines provided for such cases were not originally Intended as a payment for the privilege of keeping a book over time , but merely as a penalty for withholding it from circulation beyonJ1 what was .believed to be a reasonable period. On this account , lso , It was believed that a charge cf 2 cents for the first two dayo would be a sufficient re- ralader notwithstanding that It would deduce - duce the present revenue from this source , amounting to ? SO or $30 a month , by prob ably one-tlilrcl , as the majority of books over duo are returned before the third day , On tbo other hand. It may be expected thai under the molest penalty now In force bor rowers will retain books , especially those on the seven day list , longer than It Is In tended they should , considering the public advantage. The Innovation will undoubtedly be a popular one , however , -with the large class ot borrowers who admit of being care- lesi and preoccupied. To Insure to taxpayers the benefit from their own enterprise It was decided to fix a charge of 50 cents , quarterly , upon resi dents ot outlying ; districts for the privileges of the library. Residents of Florence , Dun- doe. Bellevue cad Font Crook have for sev eral years patronized the library In con siderable numbers and their trade has be come so Important as to amount to a con siderable factor In the library's business , It was believed , therefore , that these patroiu should contribute to the library's support in the manner of taxpayers. This provision has been enforced for some time upon citi zens of South Omaha , as that town Is pro vided with A sufficient library of Its owti. WARItAXT FOR HUNT'S ARREST. Caiinly JmlKP Raxtcr Give * a State ment of llorr ItVa Innacd. There seems to have been a mistake lr > the report that the arrest ot A. J. Hunt war made on a warrant personally solicited bj President Hurt of the Union Pacific on County Judge Baxter. In explanation of tilt countersigning of the warrant County Judgs Baxter sajs : "Thursday afternoon I had been out In the vicinity ot Hanscom park and wcs returning at about 5 o'clock. Upon reaching Sixteenth and Davenport streets 1 got off the car to go to my home , and wac approached by an ofllcer , who was a stran ei to me. .Ho had a warrant for the arrest ol Andrew J. Hunt , which he presented to me for my signature ao county Judge. I looked at the paper and taking It , went Into a etort and affixed my signature. This warrant had been signed by Henry M. Morvow as clerl of the county court , but as there was some doubt about ho ( laving a legal right to sign such papers , my signature was requested ant secured. The warrant , I understand , hai ; been prepared under the direction of the county attorney. In signing the- document I simply signed over the signature of Mr Morrow. When I was approached by th < ofllcer , there was no other person there , r/oi was there any other perenn In company will mo when I went Into the store \\dero m } signature wes affixed. During the proceed ings I did not see any ofllcer ot the Unlor Pacific Railway company nor any ofllcer oi the Pacific Exprces company. " Andrew J.

WAR FOR HUMAMITS SAKE Congregational Ministers Beady to Bull Into Spain Eonghahod , REV , s , WRGHT : BUTLER LEADS THE WAY Condition * Ini Cuba Bach that the Climli of Arm * Wonld lieJnitl - flvd if Ktcenumrr to Urine ( Abont Change * "War U hell , " declared Rev. 8. Wright Duller of the St. Mary's Avenue Congrega tional church last night , but war with Spain , If It comes , will bo righteous war and righteous hell. Ho based this conclusion upon a scriptural text , which , however , ho paraphrased with Sherman's sententious definition of war "In righteousness docs the Son of GOJ make hell. " "We shall not make hell In Cuba , " he said In the course of his remarks. "Hell has been there already for three years. Bight years ago we are told Cuba had the population of Nebraska. Since thai 400,000 people have starved to death and 300,000 more are starving to death. That la hell. And yet we wait for peace the peace of death that Russia gave 'Poland , the peace of depopulation. It would not be a war of re taliation or of revenge , for our nation seems to have forgotten the treachery which "sent 2C4 of our sailors to Qod. It would not bo a war of conquest , of glory , of commerce , nor a war to resent an tasult. Our war cry would simply be , 'Humanity and liberty for hose who have been struggling three years or It ! ' " Continuing , the preacher said that If war should come no mortal can tell Its ending , but 'ho could see but one IsaUe. llpaln has a population of but 17,000.000 In her own laud and 12,000,000 In her colonies , a total of less .ban 30,000,000. This glorious republic has 74,000,000 , with a drilled mllltla of 117,000 and 10,000,000 men to draw from. Victory or this country must result and the war would be but another righteous step for a righteous God. WOULD IBB AN ACTOF MERCY. In the course of the sermon the preacher depicted ithe sad condition of the Cubans and maintained also that Intervention , by war If necessary , by the United States would ) o an act of mercy to Spain. It would stop the drain that Is put upon that country to supply the soldiers needed to carry on the war with the Cubans. Spanish soldiers to : ho number cf 150,000 have already died or Dcconio disabled In the course of the war. In the course of the sermon Dr. Butler In sisted that all the wars of the United States lave been righteous conflicts. The revolution was a struggle for 'the same principles for which the Cubans are fighting. The war of 1S12 was In support of the claim that Amer ican property In any harbor or on any sea is on American domain. The war of the re bellion was a war to keep the union together. The Impending war Is of a different char acter Is a war for people who arc not of the Uolted States , but Is Justified on the grounds that the cause of my neighbor Is my cause. " It can be Justified on legal grounds on the sime principle that If one refused to respond to the cries of one assaulted by thieves or thugs he la considered a party to the crime. HEADY TO GO TO AVAR. AT OXCH. Rev. Howard MneAjonl Dciuniulu Unit Spain Ilr nioltod Out. At Plymouth Congregational church yea- terday morning Rev. Howard MacAyeal sub stituted the doctrine of national morality for that of the Individual. His discourse re ferred In general to the controversy growing out of the Cuban question and his conclu sion was that It was the moral duty of this country to Interfere by force of arms. He said In the beginning that he did not wish to pose as a critic of the administration , but he proposed to speak his convictions. It had been heralded far and wide that it was the duty of preachers at this Juncture to speak for peace and say nothing that should Incite the people to deeds of violence. He wanted to publicly repudiate such a doctrine.It Is not the duty of the pulpit to proclaim peace , but to proclaim the truth , no matter where It leads , and the time has arrived whn the truth should bo spoken. Speaking of the moral aspect of the ques tion the speaker said llko man the nation ! < j born of God. Each nation has Its own organism , Its peculiar national characteris tics. These are preserved from generation to generation and although men come and go the character of the nation remains the same. This nation Is a moral personality. It has been formed in a conflict In which moral principles contend against Immoral ones and all the laws which govern It are founded on the ten commandments. There Is no such thing as an absolute or Inalien able right Inherent in the Individual , Blackstone - stone and the Declaration of Independence notwithstanding. The rights of the nation are precedent to the rights of the state or Individual and the only absolute rights are those which are vested In the nation. As a moral agent the nation should be. the In carnation of freedom. Its freedom consists In the assertion of Its personality. To bo free Is simply to be Itself and to fulfill the mission for which God baa given it exist ence. ence.CONSTITUTION'NEEDS CONSTITUTION-'NEEDS CHANGING. In thto connection the epqaker took occa sion to express his satisfaction that the senate bas refused to ratify the arbitration treaty. He contends that any such arrange ment would take away the national spirit. There could never be such a thing as la high court of nations. The nation aa a moral personality Is responsible only to the Al mighty. It cannot shift Its faults or virtues to any other antlon. Mr. MacAyeal also denounced the consti tution as an Instrument which is likely to become a worse tyrant than a king. It might be a very good thing , but after all It amounts to very little. "If wo are going to have a constitution , " said hp , "let us have one wo can glory in. It la asserted that this would bring trouble , but if that ia so let us have the trouble. The nation has the right to make war. It Is the. minister cf God to bear the sword. " Ho declared that he did not know who'blew up the Maine , but -whoever placed the mine that destroyed the lives of 260 American sailors had struck a blow at the sovereignty of the nation. It Is not a question of arbitration , but of finding out who did It and then smlt- Ing them with terrible retribution. We should blot them from the face of the earth and trample their flag In the dust. It made his blood boll , he declared , to hear people talk of arbitration. We have had a surfeit of sentimental etatcments concerning peace. The history of our nation Is not found in the cash drawers of Its merchants , but In tbo graves of Its heroic dead. Our West minster Abbey Is at Vlcksburg and Gettys burg. The cry of free Cuba is ringing in our ears and it la our moral duty as a nation to listen to the cry. The Modern ( iciierntlun of Men. Physically men are better toJiy than ever before. Our college youth are , as a general thing , magnificent specimens. The constitu tionally weak and nervous , though they may never become athletes , can greatly in crease their strength and restore tranqull- ity to tbo nervous system by the efficient old of Hosteller's Stomach Bitters , which also removes malarial , kidney , dyipcpela and bil ious trouble. RET. M'QGOIDWIHDUSB HAXSACKKD. Rarglnm nprpMtMhcUmldcaee et it Meth U Divine. Burglar * broke tote'tho ' residence of Rev. Jtiin McQuold , SHKNrth Twentieth street , last night and searehM the house thoroughly. They secured 175 te money and a lady'a gold watch , valued at $30. About 7:30 : o'cloeVtRcv. Mr. McQuold and his daughter lochadlthe house and went to the First Methodtet Church , of which the former la pastor. Noione was left at home , as Mrs. McQuold Mnd. another daughter are absent * on a soutkwnutrtp. When Rev. Mr. McQuold returned'at mo at 9:30 : everything was outwardly secure ) but when he admitted himself at a aide door th.e furniture and drapery were found in confusion. Drawers were open and their contents strewn about the floor. In Miss McQuold'a room the bureau bad beco ransacked and the watch taken from the dressing case. The pillage had also extended to Mr , Mc- Quold's study , with good results to the burglars. Besides a number of small articles a roll of banknotes was taken from the drawer of his writing desk. On their de parture the robbers made no effort to set tbe house In order , but were careful to hide their means of getting In. No evidence could be found of their having entered through a window and all doors were found eccurely fastened. Tbe case differs from older recent cnes In this respect , as the usual mode of ingress has been through a window pried open with a Jimmy. Detect ives suppose that the robbers gained ad mittance with a skeleton key. > .AMUSEMENTS. In splto of tlio wet weather , two large audiences saw the first appearance of the new Woodward company yesterday In "Shell- andoah" at the Crelttiton. Aside from a cer tain nervousness not unnatural In the case of an Initial performance before an un familiar audience , and a slight lack of smoothness which la sure to disappear very soon , the new comers , Individually and col lectively , made a thoroughly good Impression , It Is safe to say , even after a single view of their work , that they will not long remain strangers to patrons of the Crelghton , and that they will compare quite favorably , In point of ability , with any of their predeces sors. It may be possible that they will sur pass them , although this cannot be positively stated at this early day. Mr. Carl Smith and Mis Kate Dalgllsd , the leading man and woman , are evidently experienced cad capa ble people and much may bo confidently ex pected of them. Mr. Hal Davis Is a clever cccncdlan and was able to assuage the preva lent grief over the loss of Mr. Blakemore by a very satisfactory presentation of the role of Barket. Mr. Gagnon's Captain Heartsease Is certain to Improve with repetition , and Me. James Hester , who played General Buckthorn , has a bluff and hearty style well suited to the part. Mr. aad Mm. Enos arc eminently successful In two or those minor roles which often test an actor's power * more severely than greater onen. Mr. Noble , whcfio popularity scema unabated , was warmly welcomed back and acquitted him self creditably In the small part of Elllng- ham. Mrs. Hlgby , Miss Pollock and Miss Do Lane were all well received and will do much to fill out a well-rounded end accept able company. Mr. Long and Mr. Sctiroth , who are well known to Woodward audiences , are also In the cast ( of "Shcnandoah. " The specialties for the week are provided by Smith O'Hrlen , who sings Irkti congn , Imitates Irish actors and tellii stories In a rlth Irish brogue ; and Baldwin and Daly , a really remarkable pair of acrobats , whose grotesque make-up adds little to their en joyable performance. It should bo said that the audlunces , par ticularly at the matinee , were unusually and unnecessarily notay. They ought to bear Iti mhid that they are witnessing high-class performances and that the people on the ntago do not exnost Xo Cave to raise their voices ( o overcome a continual murmur of conversation or chorus of coughs. Such dis turbances are an unspeakable annoyance , to the better class of patras. Mme. Mclba opens her transcontinental tour in the Exposition Music hall In St. Louis tonight and makes her appearance In Omaha Wednesday evening at Boyd's In Ros sini's "The Barber of Seville. " which will bo given with the complete accessories , full orchestra and with the same cast of prin cipals as was seen at its presentation at the Metropolitan opera house In New York City. 'Melba's ' fame and her unequaled reputa tion au supreme mistress of the art of bel canto did not come In a day. Her own genius and tbo heavenly gift of her rare voice lufR to bo supplemented by long seasons of ardu ous research In the domain of vocal knowl edge , and Melba has earned the right to speak as the greatest authority on voice cul ture in the world. What iMelba has to eay upon voice culture cornea , therefore , from one of the highest living authorities and baa its value accord ingly. There are more musical students In Omaha in comparison with the size of the city than in any place ) in tbe United States outsldo of Boston , and naturally great In terest obtains amongst such regarding Mel ba's appearance. This is what the empress of song has to say upon the treatment of that rarest gift of the Divine Being a beau tiful singing voice : "I have always sung. When I went to Marches ! in Paris without one vocal lesson I sang as well as I do today but for one break In my voice. Marches ! corrected that at once , posed my vole properly , and It this had not been done I should have totally lost the power of song. That Is the reason why I so earnestly advise young singers to look after the proper posing of tbo voice above all things. They will know themselves where the break lies in their registers , and if a teacher tries to force the voice over a break there Is sure to be something wrong. It will result probably In permanent rula of the voice and the career of many a promising singer Is often thus ruined In the first stages of tuition. "It la quite possible to sing as an artist and yet to bo an exception to the ordinary rule as to the place where the register changes. A natural peculiarity In thU should not bo disregarded. I myself carry my mld- dlo rcgUtcr to F sharp , half a tone beyond the prescribed limit. If I were a teacher and advocated this In any special < case I would have the whole fraternity swooping down and abusing me. I know my own voice , however , and am a living example that exceptional register changes may be a success. "Many critics have done mo the honor to allude to the freshness and spontaneity of my singing. There Is-no.sccret about tbo fresh ness of my voice. I save it all I possibly can , but I save : none of my other muscles correspondingly. I toke lots of physical ex ercise and save rayi voice for the public. The greatest economy of vocal freshness Is to phrase carefully upon the keyboard and com mit to memory before ever attempting to even hum it over. The great mistake that young artists often make Is to take a new role to the piano and Instead of committing it perfectly to memory .without employing the voice at all , they Immediately begin to sing -with It. They hack and back at their voices , not for tbo purpose of execution , but simply to memorize1 what they might quite as well do with their fingers on the keyboard. No one shall evertcatch me simply memoriz ing on my voice what can bo done quite as well on a mohanid l instrument. When the music is firmly -engraved upon my mind I use my voice upon lit , not before. When I do sing , with the exception of my rehearsals at the theater. I Invariably practice pianis simo. I strictly deprecate tbe bablt of forte Ml HIM BLATZ IS ON / CORKX mi / Absolute purity is "the chief ornament of this VAL.BLATZ BREWING Co. MILWAUKEE , U.S. A. Fotcy Brofc , Vaolnak Dealen. of fice Dellooc HoUL , 124 N. four- tecath Street Onife , Neb , practicing , nd I cannot Impress too strongly upon my sincere friends , the young and am- bltlouB singers , the damage and the Irre vocable damage at that which accrues from the unwleo , not to My criminal , habit of loud practicing. It you practice torte you cannot lng planlaslmo afterwards. 'Always reserve your forcea. Sing pianissimo In private and the forte will come all right In public. "Another point I would urge with alt the power st my command. Use the voice lera , the general muscles more. Half the young singers Mt or stand by an Instrument almost all the day , wearing their voices to shreds , where open air exercise- would do Infinitely moro for Its development , creating a sound body from which alone a sound voice can proceed , I take abundant walking exercise. I rely on Ita hcalthfulncsa as much as I rely upon my knowledge of my voice Itself. In eating I do not restrict myself , except on the day I elng , when a light dinner at 2 with meat , a few vegetables and a glass ot wine la the last thing I take before going to the theater. "A word of advice to young singers upon the subject ot tone production. It Is , of course , not naturally given to every young singer to produce the tones as I was fortu nate enough to be able to do , leaving only a guiding hint. The most valuable voices are often obscured by difficulties , which It Is the teacher's mission to remove. Often even when a voice Is properly pored there la a marked weakness whore the registers change. Bart teachers Insist on prolonged practicing ot this particular section of the voice with thd Idea ot enlarging the tone. I day , exer cise the volco equally all over. It will In turn become equalized In time. Even If there bo a natural defection , better retain your voice with a small spot of weakness than risk Its ruin through the bad art ot taxing it where nature tells plainly enough that it lu not fit for taxing. "While the average voice Is being devel oped scales , solfeggi and vocallem over Ita full compass are essential.
