Five thousand people cheered Handmas
ter Hellstedt ti the echo when he raised
hit baton last night and Instituted the
first concert of tho Omaha Musical Fes
tival. No mhslcnl organization was ever
accorded a morn cordial welcome than
Erected tho Cincinnati band. Its triumphs
of last year were renewed and fresh laurels
were won.
Ueforc 7 o'clock the crowds began to
flow Into tho great pavilion nnd an hour
later tho tent was filled and hundreds of
peoplo occupied the seats provided In tho
enclosure. A score of nre lights mado tho
promenades surrounding tho tent as bright
as day. Hundreds of electric bulbs out
lined tho main entrance ami welcomed the
trcam of people that poured Into the
grounds, Only a few lights shone In tho
main pavilion until Bhortly after 8 o'clock,
when tho touch of an electric button trans
formed tho auditorium Into ublazo of light
nd flcllstodt and hh musicians made their
triumphal entrance. Hundreds of Incan
descent outlined the great sounding board
behind tho band seats and tho top of the
pavllllon was aglow with myriad lights.
Tho sides of tho stage were draped with
large American Hags and banks of palms
formed a background for the blue and
told uniforms of the musicians.
The festival opened with a brief address
by F. K. Hnnhorn, president of the execu
tive committee, who thanked tho nudlenco
for the generous support It had bestowed
upon tho committee, and reviewed tho his
tory of tho musical festival. Tho plan
of holding concerts originated with mem
bers of tho Commercial club anil to the
untiring effort of members of that organ
lxatlon Is duo the success of the under
taking. The business men of Omaha have
stood behind tho project and made it pos
sible by their liberal subscriptions. Hut
11 this effort bus been mado by public-
spirited citizens. Mr. Sanborn reminded
the audience. In the hope that tho nucleus
for an auditorium fund may be secured.
The committee has done all In Its power
to make the festival n success; Mr. Poll
stedt has promised to muko the effort of
his life and It remains for tho public to
crown the Joint endeavor.

"Music Is a refuge from nil that Is bako
and sinful. It Is tho Irrcslstlblo forco of
Cod bringing all things of earth Into dl
vino harmony," said Rev. K. F. Trefz, tho
next speaker. "In giving Mr. Ilellsledt
hueh a hearty greeting wo find pleasure
and manifest our love for that which Is
hove the affairs of our work-n-day lives,
Tho city which denies Its peoplo art nnd
song misses half Its vocation and Omaha
has evinced a disposition to not bo lax In
this particular.
"For thirty days our people will have an
nnnnrtunlty to hear music that Iscuucn
tlonal and uplifting. Tho benefit this fes
tlval will confer upon the city cannot be
estimated. Hut wo must not let our en
thusiasm dlo with this month of music.
Mav this season Inspire us to tho erection
of an auditorium, a permanent, home for
nil that Is good In nrt and music. '
When Mr. Ilcllstedt was Introduced tho
audience roso to Its feet and gavo him a
roval welcome. Tho cheering was ho lusty
that It-was several minutes before the band
master could make himself beard.
"I am glad to return to Omaha," ho
said. "I remember tho kind treatment I
had In Omaha last year and know that you
apprcclato good music. For this reason
I havo prepared much new music and have
rearranged many well known selections of
the sort I know Omaha people want to
Bear."

It was editors' night again at the del."'
of Ak-Sar-lJen and nbout fifty members of
the Journalistic fraternity from neighbor-
log towns In Nebraska and Iowa paid their
horaago at court and attested their nllt-
glance to tho kingdom of Qulvcrn. Thcfo
was perhaps not as much attention paid to
detail in the Journalistic Initiation as was
the case on the occasion of a former pil
grimage of newspaper men to the royul
city, but last night's seekers after the
profound secrets of the hidden science
came away from the den In "calm contem
plation of the occult." Among the hardy
adventurcrH was Hon. K. I'. Savage of

The "Omaha Law school.'' whoso chief
claim to public notice inheres In the record
of its dean, has ronrcnnlzod slurp Inst ri-
plotted In these columns and now claims
a new faculty and n new corps of lecturers.
Tho fall term opened Monday evening. Three
members of tho new faculty, two lecturers
and about a dozen students, met In one of
Prof. Doyles' class rooms on the fifth floor
of The Dee building nnd talked over the

ho apologized for lack of permanent ouar
ters. but explained that all would como out
right before the holidays.
Dean William Farr, LL.n., LL..M., will be
remembered as the projector of a law school
In Nashville and another In Chattanooga,
both of which wero assailed by bar and
press of Tennessee, It being alleged that
ho was selling degrees. It was mado so
wnrm for Mr. Farr In Tennessee that ho
was compelled to seek other fields. He
came to Omnha about a month ngo nnd
bought tho charter nnd personal properly

Attorney Knabe has this to say In ex
planation of hln connection with the
school: "I haven't gono to much troublo
In looking tho matter up, but I'm sattstled
that this wholo tirade against Mr. Fnrr Is
prompted by Jenlousy;. Ho was a north
erner and tho members of tho Tennessee
bar wero Jealous of his success, so they
set about It to drive him out. I havo met
and talked with a young man who studied
law under Farr In Nashvlllo Bnd ho says
tho talk against tho teacher Is absolutely
without foundation. The young man Is
going to nttend the Omaha Law school."
T. J. Mahoney says: "I heard Mr. Farr's
St0ry ' thc that first art lo
consent 10 ueuvcr ono or two lectures a
year before his school. Of course this
was with the understanding that his meth
ods bo entirely honorable. Dut I don't
enre who Fnrr Is or what he Is; If he has
assembled a number of young men who aro
anxious to study law I'll bo glad to give
them the benefit of a lecture or two. I am
In no way responsible for tho conduct of
the school or for tho Issunnco of diplomas."
Oeorgo A. Day says: "I nm not a mem
ber of the faculty of the school and nm
In no way connected with It. I simply
consented to deliver ono or two lectures
a year."
C. C. Wright says: "I consented to de
liver a few lectures before the school, but
It was with the understanding that no
diplomas bo given out without tho con
currence of every lecturer nnd menber ol

has not been treated fairly In Omaha, cs

lawyers of whom he bought the school
John O. Reiser says: "I haven't Inves

to assist him all I could, principally bo
cause of the manner In which he has been
treated. I do not think tho nine young

The regular meeting of the North Omaha
Improvement club last night developed
Into an Indignation meeting with the
Omaha Street Hallway company ns thu
object of its Indignation. The residents
of tho northern pnrt of the city have not
been pleased with the action of the com
pany In reducing the number of cars which
run from Twenty-fourth street to the west
ern terminus of tho South Omaha lino on
Ames avenue. A mass meeting was held a
few days ago to protest against the action
of the company and at the club meeting
a special committee of the mass meeting
reported. This committee consisted of
twenty-five persons and the majority of
them had something to say nbout tho mat
ter. The gist of the reports was that tho
manager of tho street railway company
gavo them cold treatment. He had told
the committee plainly that the service was
permanently reduced until such time ns In
creasing population would make an In
creased service pny n decent return on
tho expenso Incurred by tho additional
trips.
The meeting with tho railway represen
tative was held Monday morning and after
the committee had received tho ultimatum
of the company It did a little observing
on Its own behalf. Several of the members
had patronized tho line extensively during
the day and ns a result they stated that on
Monday at least the western end ot thu
South Omaha line supplied more tratlle than
any other pnrt. Ono man reported that
twenty-eight passengers were tnken on one
car west of Twenty-seventh street and but
fifteen peoplo got on tho car east of
Twenty-fourth until tho car reached Dodgo
street. Another one reported that on the
train on which he rode forty fares were
rung up east of Twenty-fourth street
while but five wore registered between that
nnd Dodgo street.
The matter was discussed from tho posi
tion of the street railway employe. It
was stated that although no reduction In
forco had been made by the chango to a
twelve-minute schedule west of Twenty
fourth street each employe ot the line
suffers a reduction In snlary of nbout 10
cents n day.
A committee of three was nppolntcd to
consult with nn attorney to discover
whether tho people could enforce In court
the shorter running schedule. This com
mittee consists of K. E. French, F. liar
rowclough nnd W. 11. Wnddcll. It Is to
report nt the next meeting of the club,
which will be hold at Thirty-sixth nnd
