FARRAGUT'S JAMOUS FIGHT
Passing the Batteries Below New
Orleans Fifty Years Ago.
RECOLLECTIONS OF SIGNAL MAS

a the Moraine of
April 24, 1802.
In the Sead of an April night fifty years
ago the watchers on board a cluster of
TTnlted States war vessels saw for a
moment two tiny red lights twinkling
against the darkness. At once came
whispered orders, obeyed without a
sound, and tbe squadron crept forward,
bent on the accomplishment of one of the
most gallant exploits in all naval history.
It was Farragut's squadron. In front
crouched somewhere in the blackness,
were confederate gunboats and Ironclads,
fire rata, piled high with death-bearing
freight, forts rimmed with wicked can
non. April 24, ISO half a century ago with
in a few days. In single file Farragut's
seventeen vessels stole onward, straight
toward the huge chains which the con
federates had strung across the Missis
sippi's mouth, straight into waters soon
to be reddened by gleaming fire and run.
ing blood, straight for New Oreleana, to
cut the confederacy In two bv wrenching:
the city from the grasp of Its southern
commanders.
Silent, on the silent ships, Farragut and
his men stood at their posts. They knew
well what was before them had they not
seen the tiny lights that had twinkled
for a moment and then vanished Into the
night ?-and. knowing, they waited grimly
steeling themselves to the work that
Is for brave men alone.
Recollections of a Participant.
The man who hoisted those two red
lights to the masthead of the Hartford,
Farragut's flagship, la still living in New
Tork.
He Is 86 years old now. He Is well
nigh bedridden, the frame which was
once the frame of a sturdy sailor Is bent;
the cheek tanned by boisterous sea
breezes Is sunken and creased.
But time has struck in vain at the old
fellow's memory; enshrined Intact therein
Is that day of fifty years ago, as ter
rible and glorious as ever as vivid to the
octogenarian of today as to the young
man who sent Farragut's flotilla Into the
hell that was ranged before New Orleans
to meet It.
Bradley 8. Osborn Captain Bradley 8.
Osborn that Is the name of the broken
veteran of today who was signal officer
on that April night of 18C2. He lies on a
couch most of the time, waiting for the
slgnsl that Is bound to be run up some
day for all of ua, but he waits without
fear, as a fighting man should. And if
Csptaln Osborn Is not a fighting man,
wno is: ne wno naa seen muruer glint
ing from the cutlasses of Chinese pirates,
and heard the dying gasp of gunboats
sunk In bloody little South American
affrays, and, better than all ths rest, has
made the dash Into New Orleans by the
side of the most gallant of American
sea fighters.
He told It all over again one day last
week, propped up on a couch, and as
he spoke, all ths commonplaces of city
life that surrounded him were forgotten
the little room, with Its desk and piles
of old paper and war prints, the buzi of
trolley cars and automobiles, ths cries
of newsboys forgotten, to give place to
amoke and fire, shlps-of-the-line plunging
ahead under full sail, brave hearts beat
ing high, and the roar of guns and ths
scream of sheila and all the amell and
thrill of battle.
Golaal to the Front.
He told the yarn from the beginning
how It was that he happened to ship with
Farragut how he came to be ths man
who hoisted the fateful signal.
"When ths attack on New Orleans was
first thought of," he said, "David P. Por
ter was named to head It. At that time
1 was a war correspondent and artist, but
I had also seen plenty of naval service
In China, the Argentine and this country
Itself, and besides I knew Porter, so I
asked to be taken along.
"But, he said, -Osborn, this kettle of
fish Is all upset I'm not to command the
expedition,' and he told me to run up to
.Philadelphia and see a man whose name
I hadn't heard until then Farragut.
"I found Farragut at the Continental
hotel in Philadelphia.
" 'I can only take you along aa a
clerk,' be said. 'I'll go as a clerk,' said
I promptly. I got ray dunnage together
and reported on board the flagship Hart-
ford.
"The officers and crew looked upon me
as a nuisance. They had no particular
use for correspondents or clerks. I didn't
say anything. But one day I saw a fel
low on the deck making an awful mess
of fixing up a sail.
" Tor God s sake, let me try!' I said,
out of patience, and I did ths Job as I
had learned to do It In my experience as
a sailor. One of the officers noticed It,
and later I heard some one whisper as I
passed: That reporter Is a navy man.'
"After we had put to sea and were
headed for New Orleans, Farragut sent
for me, told me that Ms signal officer
could be used to better advantage In
some other capacity, and gave me the Job.
It carried with It the rank of lieutenant.
That evening Executive Officer Thomas
Invited me to the wardroom dinner. I
wasn't a nuisance any more

"Of course we had to wait before mak
ing that dash Into New Orleans and do a

was sent over one day to one of our
gunboats, where Farragut said 'he had
vleard the men were as blue as Indigo.'
" How do you think you're going to
fight If you're blue like this? I said to
them. 'You think it looks bad there,
J went on. pointing toward where the
aonfederate forts were; 'well, cheer up.
I was never so sure cf anything In mv
life as I am that we're going to take
New Orleans.' They cheered up all right
and put up one of the best flghta In the
whole squadron when we went past the
forts.
"When we were reconnolterlng below
New Orleans, nobody knew at first that

was prowling about one day, spied It, and
made a sketch of It, to send it to Har
per's Weekly, for which I was doing war
pictures.
"When I got back to the Hartford. Far
ragut saw the sketch. Nobody had re
ported the existence of the fort to him
and he was skeptical about It. so he went
close Inshore himself In a small boat to
Investigate. No sooner was be near
enough to the hidden battery than It
opened fire on him. That convinced
him.
"It was 3 o'clock In the morning when
we started to run past the forts Into
New Orleans 2 o'clock, with a cres
cent moon shining over the sea. These

Omaha Festival Concert
-nan. yZ
7 If i :-.
The Theodore Thomas orchestra, which
comes to Omaha April 22 and 23 for a
series of concerts In conjunction with the
Mendelssohn choir, recently made an ex
tensive tour through the east, and In
Toronto gave a series of concerts ti-
gether with the famous Mendelssohn choir
of that city, winning the greatest success.
The opinions of the Toronto critics will
prove of Interest, although the work of
the orchestra Is too well known and the
magnificent playing here last spring still
so fresh In the minds of music-lovers that
additional comment Is unnecessary. Mr.
Stock gave several numbers on his pro
grams which he will play In Omaha,
among them the overture. "Husltska,"
by Dworak. and the Humpcrdlnck Suite.
"Die Konlgsklnder." The critic of the
Toronto Mall and Empire said:
"When the Theodore Thomas orchestra
was heard here last year many were In
clined to feel that It might be described
as the peer of any musical organization
In America, and Its performance last
night strengthened that Impression. Mr.
Stock has a splendid collection of musi
cians under his baton, and the feeling In
every number Interpreted Is genuine and
Impressive. The orchestra opened with
the dramatic overture, "Husltska." by
Dworak. It possesses something of the
wlldness of Hungarian music and was
rendered In a manner that stirred the
pulsee with a gradual crescendo of emotion
which no audience can resist The final
number was 'Die Konlgsklnder' Suite,
by Humpcrdlnck. One hearing of It shows
why the German composer has made such
them before the reporter's eyes "hoisted
the signals that sent the ships Into the
fight The Hartford was In one of the
most dangerous positions In the line
not up front, but in the second division.
Land gunners, you know, usually fire too
high at first at moving objects, so the
ships at the head of our line had a bet
ter chance of getting past tbe fort than
those farther back.
The Start.
"Not long after I'd hoisted the signal
the Hartford was In the thick of the but
tle shells screaming through the rigging
and bursting on the decks, men falling
wounded and dead all around. My posi
tion as signal officer was a fine one for
seeing what was going on. I wasn't as
signed to any one post, and could move
about the decks to wherever I could see
best
"Remembering I was a newspaper man.
I took out a pencil and began to make
hasty notes on my cuffs. This was for
tunate, because a shell hit the Hart
ford's log and blew It to atoms, so ths
report of the battle was partly made up
from what my cuffs told.
"The fire raft was almost alongside. I
burled the shell at It, and snothsr and
another. They did the work. The raft
went down before It could damage ua.
"When I got back on deck I saw our
ship, the Vsruna, go to the bottom. It
fired Its guns right to the water's edge
Fir! I never saw such a brilliant sight In
my life
Dewey Was There.
"Then 1 was told to signal the Mlsito
slppl's executive officer, who, by ths way,
was George Dewey to pepper an Iron
clad that was making for us, snd that
kept me busy a bit. Ths Mississippi
got the signal all right and knocked the
ironclad to pieces.
"We were, from stsrt to finish, some
thing like three hours passing those forts
and getting up to New Orleans, but It
seemed a whole lot longer. Farragut was
all over the ship while the firing was on.
Once I saw him way up the port mtzzen
rigging with my glasses, trying to make
out the shore. Shells were bursting all
around It was no place for him.
" 'Come down It's dsngerous" I yelled
to him from below. He paid no atten
tion. I yelled again.
" 'What do you wantr he asked.
" "My glasaes. I'm afraid you'll drop
them!' I bawled. Perfectly seriously he
reached the glasses toward me. I per
suaded him at last to come down.
"A few minutes later a shell cut the
rigging to pieces.
"Then he went up the starboard mix
sen rigging, and again I yelled to Mm:
" 'Come down. Tou know I'm a good
prophet' I aatd. The deck's good
enough!' and down he came.
"Once, during the hottest part of the
fight we were aground and on fire In
four places at the same time. That mo
ment showed what kind of stuff Amer-

In recent years. It has a simplicity that
gives It a direct appeal; It abounds in
melodic phrases, but through It all runs
a find Imaginative turn that brings home
the spirit of the tale It Illustrates. The
orchestra brought out the fancies In an
exquisite manner, showing another side
to their interpretative Insight,"
Miss Florence Hlnkle, the brilliant so
prano who will be beard at the concerts,
la a ahlnlng example of an American
who received her entire training In
America, and who has won her high
place In the musical world only by the
hardest work and untiring seal. Her
entire musical experience has been
gained In this country. Then It Is doubt
ful If any of the opera singers could
grace the oratorio and recital stage aa
does Miss Hlnkle. Her voice la one of
beautiful quality and she has a charming
stage presence and every place she has
appeared has aroused the greatest en
thusiasm. Miss Hlnkle hss had a re
markable season, having sung with all
the greatest orchestra and choral organl
zatolns of this country and has probably
filled more recital and concert engage
ments than any other singer. One of
her most notable engagements was at the
Worcester festival, where she scored a
triumph. All of the member cf the

three or four hundred of them on board
the Hartford, and of the whole number
scarcely more than fifty or sixty had
been to sea before, yet there was not a
flinch every one was as straight-backed
a man as I ever saw.
"When we were past the forts snd the
way to New Orleans lay open Farragut
ordered me to signal the ships and find
out how many killed and wounded they
had. As each signaled back, reporting a
number of casualties surprisingly small,
considering the hot fire of the confeder
ates, Farragut kept on saying "Thank
God, thank God.' over and over again."
And It was "That's all" with Captain
Osborn, too, for the excitement of liv

HE program which the Theo-
Tr I dore Thomas orchestra wtll
I I play on Tuesday afternoon
(DCftinaing at . ..TV snnrpi is
well balanced and made with
tbe care wbkh always dis
tinguishes this organization. It suggests
many thlnga to the music-lover wrt
ponder upon It.
Weber's ever charming overture to
"Euryenthe" nerves as the openlnc num
ber. As you know In this opera, written
two years after "Frelscliuta. ' Weber
composed some of Ins loveliest music.
Unfortunately the libretti Is very bad.
It Is founded on an old French etors.
Is Impossibly romantic. In spue of its
dramatic defects, however, the opera Is
beloved for the dignity, beauty and
marvelous tenderness of Its music. Ar
thur Symona speaks of "the bubbling
flow, the romantic moonlight" of Weber.
Mozart, he says, "weave a dainty web
of bright melody out of aunltght and
Weber out of moonlight."
The solo which Mr. Weld will sing Is
from the second act Lyslart's recitative
and aria, "Wo berg Ich mien." It Is de
scriptive In character. 1 think he Is
mourning that he finds no favor In the
eyes of bis Lady, she, naturally, doting
upon the tenor.
The big thing of the afternoon is. of
course, Tschaikowsky's fifth symphony.
The national music of Russia has In the
last twenty-five years made immense
strides. It may be divided Into two
classes. One has for Its keynote a pas
sionate nationalism. It Is pure Russian
to the core, with no echo of world-wide
sympathy. To thla group belong Moss
kowskl. Balakaklrev, Cut, Mousaorgskl,
Borodin and Klmsky, Korseeov and Ula
zonnov. Then there Is the other group
which uses Russian themes and motifs,
but handles them according to the Ideas
of composition and harmony of the
classicists of other nations. Of this sec
ond class Tschalkowsky Is the greatest
representative. He was a man of Intense
sensitiveness of feeling; passionate, mel
ancholy and morbid; made so by his own
personal sufferings and by the distress or
his country. He took things frightfully
hard and It Is all mirrored In his music.
Vet we read, too, that he was quiet and
gentle in spots. Primarily Tschalkowsky
speaks to the nerve In the tempest of un
controlled emotion. In his B minor sym
phony you will have an opportunity to
hear sounded the depth of this man's
nature. It la full of the struggles of a
sensitive and tormented spirit
--
Then Mr. Slock has don a very pleas
ant thing. After harrowing our souls
with th Tschalkowsky number and ex
hausting our vitality, he puts In a sym
phonic waltz as a rest and as an encour
agement (and quite delightfully, one of
his own compositions!. This used to he a
pet scheme of Theodore Thomas. Aa a
result he wss able to make his audiences
listen to and come to appreciate and love
a vast amount of new and wonderful
music. They didn't realize how they were
being managed.
Thomas was an ardent admirer of Jo
hann Strauss. Upon his return from on
of his early European trips, he brought
everything that he could ley his hands
on that the great waltz-king has written,
some 300 works. Strauss wsltzes were
often upon his programs.
The ltlmsky-Korsakow number which
finishes th afternoon. "Spanish Caprice"
Opus X gives us an Interesting contrast.
This Russian composer Is an optimist
Hs Is sane, well balanced and lives In
the sunlight. Good health and good for
tune have always been hie In every re
spect he Is the exact orposlte of Tschal
kowsky. His music Is all bright The
Caprice Tschalkowsky wrote of aa "a
colossal masterpiece." very wonderful In
