SPIRIT OF MUSIC
AT FIRST CONCERT
Boston Symphony Orchestra Drawl
Delighted Audience to Auditorium
to Begin Charity Course.
PROGRAM OITE OF WONDERS
Dr THOMAS J. KK1.I.T.
Tuesday night the Spirit of Music
Visited Omaha.
It was through the mextium of the
most noted band of players upon in
struments In the world. The Bos
ton Symphony orchestra. The wand
which brought the manifestation was
in the hand of Dr. Karl Muck.
Omaha felt the presence and po
tency of the spiritual visitant and
proud.
taken by them or given under their 1i.
reaction will be eure to win. And as all
great cities are noted for those thins a
which are "unseen and eternal," aa well
aa for the things wh.ch are "seen and
temporal," Omaha haa taken another
sprlndUl step forward.
Dr. Mark Kaiirreseo riea.are.

Any future musical work under-, Future. It seemed aa though one could
feel the actual atmosphere of the great
! temple and of Its most Illustrious founder,
j the great Wagner, as the overture un
I folded Itself.
I Would It not have been better to have
opened the program with this number
rather than the Symphony? Omaha will
not arrive In time even for the Hoston
Symphony Orchestra: In this respect
Omaha audirmea should listen to friendly
advice. Omaha Is alivo, very much alive.
Twenty-aevea Want Jitney Uoemaee
Twenty-seven Jltneera have thua far filed
their applications to qualify according
to the provlelona of the new ordinance.
Nine liability Insurance bonds have been
approved by the city council.
Carnival Songh Fined Joe Wollmad,
The occasion was the opening of
the course of concerts undertaken by
the Associated Retailers of Omaha
and known aa the Charity Concert
Course, because of the fact that the
profits will go to Sweet Charity.

Builders of the New
First National Have
Opened Office Here
Graham A BurnhaSn of Chicago, archi
tects for the new First National Bank
building, to be erected at the corner of
Sixteenth and Farnam streets, have ar
rived and opened offices In room SOS
In the old bank bulldln at Thirteenth
and Farnam streets. With them they
have brought the detailed drawings and
the elevations of the new building.
Nagle of Chicago gets the general con
tract for construction and bids for those
who seek sub-contracts will be opened
here about October 26.
The new bank building Is to be fifteen
stories In height. The lower story will
be granite and all etorles above of
pressed brick, black and white mottled
giving the entire building the. appear
ance of being of solid granite. .'
Concrete piers, sunk to'bedrock. a dis

Work upon the foundation will be
started this fall and will be continued
during the winter In order that the erec

early In April of next year.
them of many a splendid project and
many a good man and many a good
woman. It la un-American. It la only
the proverbial Englishman who la cred
ited with the remark "You know we have
never done It that way."
Last night the Associated Retailers
took the old fossil Precedent" out of
his cave, broke hie backbone beyond pos
sibility of repair and gently but com
pletely kicked the corpse out of doors.
And In all reverence let us say "Thank
God!"
The business men of Omaha who have
made King Ak-Sar-Ben the most popular
of reigning monarchs (aa well aa the
safest and sanest), those men who have
made the "week of . weeks" In Omaha
an annual Joyfeet and Jubilee, have
kicked the "brake" off, and precedent,
hereabouts, will be a thing of the past.
Retailers Enterprise Endorsed.
The audience ' which assembled at the
Auditorium last night certainly proved
to the Associated Retailers that their
action In presenting this wonderful chain
of concerts waa tremendously endorsed.
They have surely no . reason, to regret
their action and every reason to be
aa "the late Miss Omaha."
Deaattea tf Beethoven.
The Symphony. In A major, known
everywhere aa "No. 7," was a great de
light. It naa ho "program" that Is, It la
not descriptive, and some have therefore
called It the "Romantic" symphony. In
contrast to the "Eroha" and the "Pas
toral." One, can Just Bit still and drink
In Its beauties, without wondering what
anything means. It I. the symphony
which Beethoven considered one of his
very greatest works. Many people en
joyed Beethoven Inst night who never
did before, and those who knew him be
fore loved him better.
It is over 100 years since It was first
g1vn to the public In Vienna, at a con
cert for wounded Austrian and Bava
rian Boldlers, And while It haa lived,
alae Peace haa not. for again tonight
there are wounded Austrian and Bavarian
soldiers. The pity or It!
When the great Tschalkowsky pro
claims of a work that It Is a colossal
masterpiece of lnstrumentntlon," people
should listen: and they did Inst night, aa
they heard the "Caprice on Spanish
themes" by Rliusky-Korsakoff, the work
alluded to. Hear the virtuosity of (h
various artists was so evident. English
might almost say devotional. Interest to and ahould never have u lie alluded to
every musical offering. It was an au
dience which made every musician proud
of his city. Dr. Muck personally sioke
to the present reviewer, of the audience
and also of the Auditorium, which he
said surpassed most of those he had
encountered, and especially made a glow
Ing comparison with one very famous
American city. (Not Boston).
The suppression of outside noises was
complete, and the governors of Ak-Sar-Ben
deserve to be apprised of the publlo
appreciation of their solution of a real
difficulty. Governor Black promised that
there would be no disturbance, and he
kept his word. There was one single
toot from an automobile horn at the be
ginning of a phrase by the clarinet In
one of the numbers and it was In tune.
In fact exactly an octave below!
Woaaer of the Orekestra.
With such a wonderful organisation of
players, one hundred and one, to be
exact. It Is possible to do things which
are not within the scope of the smaller
orchestral bodies which have visited here
from time to time, and the orcheetra
last night was a revelation, even to
those who knew that they were to have
the treat of their lives. The Boston
Symphony Orchestra, like Woman, needs
no eulogy. It speaks for Itself. One
could exhaust .adjectives for a column
and leave much unsaid. Strings which
were actually spiritualised, flutes which
were like celestial ahella from which
pearla were blown, clarinets which
sounded as If they had been found In
the Isles of the Blessed, oboes which
sounded like the one which the great
god Pan played when he "drew the pith
ltl,e the heart of a man, from the ncJ
which grew In the river." The brilliant
sunshine of the trumpets, and trombones,
splendour without glare, the gentlo
"rain-showers" of the tympanl and
drums, played pianissimo: all these thtnirs
will never be forgotten by those who
heard them last night.
Majesty of tondnctor.
And over all. and above all. or rather
behind all. was the person of Dr. Karl
Muck, one of the greatest of conduct
ors of all time. One says advisedly, "be
hind all." for he la of the quiet type
In his conducting: he never exaggerates,
he never geta between the listener and
the work. It Is the true domination of
the spirit of man.
Aa, the "Flying Dutchman" overture
waa being played one could not but
think of the fact that Dr. Muck haa
for years been conducting at Bayreuth.
the shrine of the Richard Wagner musi
cal philosophy and of the Music of the
horn. Flute. Oboe, Violin (solo). Clarinet.
Harp, even Triangle and Side-drum were
glorified.
The Suite, "1,'ArleMenne," by Oeorges
Bltet contained beautlen Innumerable
and especially one must note the "Ada
gletto" which was plaved by the muted
string, (minus the douMr hase1. This
was simply heavenly, nnd was lixtrned to
with breathless attention. The big build
ing waa as quiet ns a small sanctuary.
The ptvgram closed with the favorite
"Syir.pr.onlo Poem, 1-cs Preludes." by
Fran Llstt and wns listened to with
eagerness, the audience not leaving until
not only Pr. Muck but the entire orches
tra had been called to bow. That was
the second time during the evening that
the audience brought tho orchestra to Its
feet.
Purely Florence Moore should have been
there Inst nldhf she would have seen
an audience which did not appear to be
"hundcuffol." as are suggested to a
somewhat sl.iw audience the other tilcht
at the Bod. The npvlause was given
with a free hand and much gusto at thn
Auditorium.
The splendid program note were from
the pen of the distinguished veteran
critic. Philip Hale of Boston. They are
worth preserving. Mr. Anton Wltek dis
played the fact that he was the most
temperstnentnl "Conrert-mnster" who
haa ever hon red thla town with a visit.

ANSWERS "FARMER" AD
OF OVER FOUR YEARS AGO
The far-reaching effect of an advertise
ment In a standard publication of wide
circulation never dies, is the opinion of
Immigration Agent Howard of the Bur
lington's homeseekers" department. This
was forcibly brought to the attention of
Mr. Howard when he received a letter
from N. E. Ellsworth. Hoqualn, Wash.,
who asked for detailed information rela
tive to the Big Horn basin country of
Wyoming.
With Mr. Ellsworth's letter hs enclosed
an advertisement cut from the Twentieth
Century Farmer of March 22, 1911. The
advertisement published more than four
years ago, called attention to the Big
. Horn basin and the opportunltlea for sc
ouring agricultural land there.
In his letter Mr. Ellsworrh asserted that
he had an idea that the conditions per
taining to securing a home might have
changed in the interval, but that he got
hi inspiration from reading the Twen
tieth Century Parmer that he found
in a house into which he was moving.
