Iloland Itced, tho popular comedian who has visited Omaha annually for tho last fifteen years and who has been 111 for ro long In Now York, has nt last been turned out of tho hospital with n clean bill of health and Ib now quietly resting at his home In Philadelphia. This piece of news will certainly bo most gratifying to his frlcndit nnd admirers In tho west, whoso numbers nro alracst legion. In speaking to n reporter of ono of tho Now York papers nfter his dlschargo from tho hospital, Mr. Ileed treated tho matter of his illness most humorously, speaking of It as a play which ho called "A CJre.it Klght for Life," In which h alluded to his part as merely "a think ln one." In part ho said: ' I have spent thrco months In St. Luke's 1 iBpltal, havo undcrgono two operations, have been given up by the doctors for dead nnd have read tho notices of my death in the newspapers. After pausing through these thrco moat critical months of my Ufa 1 feel that I nm now on tho high road to recovery.

You know that tho surgeons, after they had performed tho first operation on me, decided that I had Just about twelve hours to live.

"I am still weak and feel like a man freed from a long Imprisonment. The re lief at getting back to my family of course goes a long way toward compensating mo for my painful experience In tho hospital nnd the exhllerating feeling of freedom which I now enjoy makes tho world look Tery bright, aftor having been for so long constrained by the strict regulations of the hospital.

Then comes Easter, tho feast of feasts, the day of resurrection. Today there will bo heard In many 1 churches tho strains of tho celebrated solo "Tho I'alms," by Fauro. This solo Is known nnd will probably bo sumr nil nvr civilized world this very morning.

Tho opposite Is tho cass with Faurc the celebrated organist, whose namo is pronounced with two syllables. Fnure. tho composer, was born in January, 1&30, and wns left fatherlcbg at a very early age. Ho had a bonitlful voice as a boy and through It ho madn many friends and at tracted much attention. When his voice changed ho took up tho study of music very cerlcusly nnd In duo tlmo became a barltono, ilnglng at tho Opera Comlque, Paris. From that he approached grand opera and, enter ing zealously Into his new Held, accomplished great things with his now magnificent barl tono volco and bus achieved tremendous success. A light has arisen! A caso has actually ocourred which bhoiss that some people In Omaha aro willing to pay for music. A well known accompanist In Omaha Is re sponsible for the Incident, which occurred In his studio, relative to his engagement for the purposo of playing accompaniments for a well known and veteran basso. After talk ing somo tlmo on tho work to be done, tho person said to tho accompanist: "We will bo willing to pay you your carfare!" Now that Is encouraging. Tho accompanist did not necept tho Job.

Franz Adclmann, the cnthuslastlj llttlo artist who has charmed many with hla vio lin, has been engaged nt Denver for tho summer, whero he will havo an orchestra of twcnty-flvo people, Including oboe, basso and horn playors. This Is the realization of his dream. Ho tried to establish a good orchestra In Omaha, but llko every other meritorious musical attempt ln Omaha, It failed for lack of support. It Is to be hoped that Mr. Adelmann will not receive, enough encouragement In Denver to Induce him to doprlvo Omaha of his talent. Through tho courtesy of a fellow critic, the writer had the mlsfortuno to read last wcok one of those vitriolic offuslons, which (skulking cowards send around, under anonymous titles, being thoriughly nshamel of their own names. The nrtlclo was nlmel at tho organist of a recent recital given here, but It fell flat, and disgusted tho gentleman to whom It was sent.

It Is to bo a national affair nnd will bring to Omaha visitors from almost every stato In tho union. Tho official program has not yet been Is sued, but advanco Information Is to tho effect that It will bo one of the most elaborate ln tho history of tho Woodman order. Omaha Is a Woodman stronghold and members who reside hero declare that it is a deserved recoenltlon for the supromo body to choose this city as the scene of Its annual conclave. There has been more or less talk about re- i moving tho headquarters of tho Woodmen of ths World from Omaha, but nothing def inite has resulted as yet. It Is an Institu tion employing a large force of oftlcc work era and adds much to the postofflce receipts by tho largo amount of mall sent out from day to day. Other cities notably Kansas City have grown Jealous of Omaha, It Is Bald, and have mado overtures to tho Wood men looking to a change of location. Vesta chapter Order of the Eastern Star, which is a sister of tho Masonic lodge, gave a delightful entortalnment at Masonic tem ple Thursday night which -was largely at tended.
