AN AUDIENCE of over 12,000
gathered in Philadelphia to
hear the Wanamaker organ
one day last week. This recital was
given at the request of the musi
cians of Philadelphia, who desired
to. hear this mammoth organ played
by a master who would realize all
its possibilities. CKarles Courboin
was chosen the organist, and Mr.
Wanamaker also called upon the
Philadelphia Symphony orchestra
and Giovanni Martinelli to assist at
th concert Mr. Wanamaker gave
a brief talk in which he told of the
'musical uplift work which had
been done at the Wanamaker es
tablishment and how it had helped
and is helping to establish the com
munal soirit there and to develop
among the thousands of employes a
real and lasting love tor tne oeau
tiful in tone." "The ethical value of
music as an asset to morale and to
nraetical efficiency have been con
clusively oroved to the satisfaction
of the Wanamaker directorate," con-1
eluded the speaker, "ana it is warm
ly recommended for the same pur
poses to all other operators of large
commercial or other establish
ments." The Wanamaker organ is a fa-

the original poject had been com
pleted: " .... ..
The great organ situated In the grand
court of the Wanamaker store was In
tended originally for tne convention nan.
In Kansas City, and previous to the time
of Us Installation It was exhibited In
Festival hall at the 8t. Louis exposition.
In 1905, and there was awarded the gold
medal. While at Festival hall the In
strument was played by Alexander Oull
inant and practically every organist of
note In the United States. After the close
of the exposition the contract witn tne
Kansas City authorities was not consum
mated and there followed several years
when the now famous organ lay Idle In
aloomy St. Louis warehouse, une aay
John Wanamaker aent for the organ, and
so large were Its parts that It was brought
east In a train of 13 freight cars. A
special court and screen were erected at
Wanamaker for the huge musical perma
nent visitor, and for the past five years
every weekday the noble Instrument has
been soundfhg Its tones lor tne eamcauon
and delight of thousands of listeners.
Many additions snd improvements nave
made the original St. Louis organ almost
a new product, jsvery pipe nas oeen re-
voiced and every detail of mechanism per
fected under the personal supervision of
the man who was the Initial designer and
builder. Nearly 18,000 wood and metal
pipes, operated from five manuals, make
the music of the Wanamaker organ. It
has the largest single pipe in the world,
32 feet long and weighing 1.735 pounds.
The main console weights 2,000 pounds.
The total weight of the organ is 375.
000 pounds. The Incandescent lights
strung along the organ chamber would
light the streets of a small town. This
room is 60 feet high by 30 feet deep. It
Is a three-story forest of wood and metal
pipes.
. Of ' course, it was several years
ago when Kansas City was toying
with the proposition Of a great or
gan in its auditorium. Even at that
time there were far-sighted public
spirited citizens in that city who
felt the truth of the saying: "Not
the outlook, but the uplook," but
evidently they were in the minor
ity. That a great municipal organ
is a valuable asset and almost ne
cessity in public life is proved by
San Francisco, Denver, Portland,
Me., and various' other cities which
have municipal organs. Omaha and
many other middle western cities
are in the very center of the wealth
iest part of the United States. Our
Chamber oi Commerce heads its
stationery with a list of Omaha's ad
vantages, among them this, "Thirty
fourth city of the United States in
population, thirteenth in bank clear
ings." What Omaha and these other
cities need is not so much the 9Ut-

what else? We need something

we looked about us and made some
sort of study of what other cities
have found worth while, and what
tbev have found poor investments,
and with their experiences to profit

the best and most favorable means
of accomplishing something for our

Good, advice about buying violins
is given by Mischa Elman, who will
appear in recital at the Brandeis
theater on April 17. '
"My first word of advice to pur
chasers of violins is do not believe
all you read on the label inside,''
says Elman. "It is the easiest
thing in the world to paste imita
tion old labels in a fiddle. No one
but an experienced violinist can be
sure of 'a genuine instrument. Do
not waste time looking in pawn
shops for a Stradivarius worth
$10,000. Such things happen once
in 100 years sometimes. .
"If you have a violin, keep it
clean; do not let rosin accumulate
unde,r the strings or on them. Shun
wire'E strings; they ruin the bow
and cut the bridge. If you are be
ginning to study the instrument get
as good a one as you can afford.
Cheap violins never improve, even
it they last 500 years. Violins that
have been in the family for many
years are not always valuable. Just
because it looks old and dusty is no
proof that it is worth more than
$10."
At the concert to be given Mon
day evening, April 21, at the Y. W.
C A. audiforium Henry Cox, solop
ist, will give a group of violin nurnV
bers. He will be assisted by the
woman club choral, a group of 40
women's voices, directed by Mr.
Cox. One of the choral numbers
to be sung was composed by a mem
ber of the chorus, "The Dreamboat,"
by Mrs. D. E. Bradshaw. This is the
past of the series sponsored by the
music department of the Omaha
Woman's club. Mrs. Ward Shafer
Famous Violinist Who
Will Soon Appear Here
f.'A vif
i : -
is leader of the Music department.
Among the numbers played by Mr.
Cox will be the following novelties;
Lt. Albert Spalding, 1888 Prelude in B
major.
Lt. David Hochstein, 1892-1918 Minuet
In E flat Major.
Lt. Albert Stoessel, 1994 Humoreske In
B Minor.
Lt. Francis Maemlllen, 1885 Negro
Serenade In E Major.
At the violin round table confer
ence, held in connection with the
Nebraska music teachers' conven
tion at Lincoln last week, it was
decided to arrange and recommend
a regular schedule for elementary
?nd preparatory work, including the
first 10 Kreutzer studies. This rec
ommendation wjll act as a criterion
for the entrance credits in the
School of Fine Arts of the.state uni
versity, , and it is hoped tha-t the
course will prove acceptable to all
violin teachers, as it covers quite a
varied scope and offers a number
of supplementary works from which
the teacher may select those with
which he is familiar, or which he
feels are more to the purpose for
the special needs of his student.
It will be good news to orchestra
lovers' in Omaha to learn that
Henry G. Cox has decided to bring
the Minneapolis symphony orches
tra here for two concepts, Friday
afternoon and evening of May 23.
"I just couldn't bear to see Omaha
go through a whole season without
one symphony orchestra concert,"
said Mr. Cox, "and when I learned
that there was an open date I de
cided to take it up myself." The
Minneapolis orchestra is well known
to the Omaha public, and the op
portunity to again hear it "will be
lcoked forward to with the great
est pleasure by its many friends
here.
It is also good, news to hear that
St. Cecilia's cathedral has engaged
Josef Bonnet 'for a recital Sunday
afternoon, May 18." This will bj in
connection with the initial appear
ance of a chorus which Archbishop
Ha'rty has formed for the purpose
of singing upon special occasions.
The membership of the chorus con
sists of the members of Cahot Cath
olic church choirs in the city. It is
directed by J. H. Simrrfs, well known
organist and director of music at All
Saints' church. Josef Bonnet is the
famous French organist who is
making a tour of this country. He
is one of the greatest organists be
fore the public at the present day,
and his appearance in Omaha will
undoubtedly awaken the greatest interest.-

Appoggiaturas
Mr. and Mrs. Thomas J. Kelly
were honor guests at a dinner in
Dayton, O., given by the Women's
Music club. Mr. Kelly gave a lec
ture on "Some Observations of Our
Language," following the dinner.
Illustrations of the .beauty and
adaptability of English for singing
were given in the numerous songs
sung by Mrs. Kelly.
Caruso will sing in Chicago at
Medinah Temple Sunday afternoon,
May 11." This is his first concept
appearance there in nine years.
t ...
' Caruso celebrated his silver jubilee
anniversary at the Metropolitan
Opera company March 22. A gala
performance marked the completion
of 25 years with this company, and
many elaborate and costly gifts were
presented to the tenor at the in
formal presentation ceremony whiijh
followed the program.
It has been very justly remarked
that 1919 types of camp chairs and
park benches should be dispensed
with in the production of old operas
by' the San Carlo Opera company.
They do give a sort of a jolt in per
formance like II Trovatore, Martha,
etc., and they could be replaced by
more appropriate ones without
much expensje.

RAISED ifi DRIVE
FOR GIRLS' HOME
Bulk of Money to Date Comes
From Homes of Poorer
Classes; Tornado Hurts
the Campaign."
At noon Saturday nearly $26,000
had been raised to build and equip
a modernized home for the working
girls of Omaha. The drive opened
last week, and it is expected to raise
$300,000 before the campaign closes.
The leading team captains among
the men were Col. P. F. Heafey,
$2,000, and Charles Knowles, $1,622.
The ladies' team captained by Mrs.
Penn Fodrea, was a big leader with
over $1,200. Miss Frances Barta,
$385.50; Mrs. N. Kavanaugh, $312,
and Miss N. Schrader, $316.95 being
the runners up.
Quite a large numebr of captains
have yet to report their quota for
the last two days which no doubt
will add quite a tidy sum to the
amount already turned in.
. The tornado and the bad weather
interfered very largely with! many
teams' activities.
The larger part of the money sub
scribed in the campaign to date has
been obtained from the masses and
the poorer classes of the people,
among all of whom the campaign
is very popular. One team captain
reported 59 calls in a house to house
canvass in a very poor district, with
out a single refusal, where the peo
ple were found at home.
On Monday morning the business
men's committee will start their in
tensive drive among all the bigger
interests of the city.
O'Brien's Minstrels at
Brandeis Keep House
in Roar of Laughter
Two large audiences greeted Neil
O'Brien and his American, min
strels at the Brandeis theater yes
terday. It is the seventh annual
tour of this' stellar blackface or
ganization, and if the applause that
was accorded Mr. p'Brien and his
minstrel artists in Omaha yester
day is a criterion, this particular
Americanesque institution of foot
lightdom is more popular than
ever.
From the first interrogation of
the . interlocutor to the last out
burst of melody at the drop of the
curtain there was blackface art pol
ished to the nth degree.
Mr. O'Brien has with him this
season the pick of minstrel men
comedians who can sing, crack
jokes as only blackface artists can
put them over, an'd sing jazz songs
and ballads as only minstrels can
sing them.
A large orchestra, brand new
songs and dancing specialties, sev
eral out-of-the-ordinary minstrel
features and a number of new jokes
that nearly "raised the roof" are
some of the high lights in the
O'Brien offering. Besides Mr.
O'Brien himself there were several
in the large company who distin
guished themselves, among them
Vaughn Comfort, Johnnie King,
"Sugarfoot" Gaffney, Lea Baird and
Nyle Verne, all well known figures
in the American minstrel world. The
O'Brien show was here but one day.

Only a Week Away
RUDOLPH GANZ, Swiss piano
virtuoso, who will be heard in
joint recital with Carolina
Lazzari, leading contralto with the
Chicago Opera company, at the Au
ditorium Tuesday evening, April 22,
has made clear his right to a place
among the first pianists of the time.
He comes upon the platform, sits
down at his instrument naturally,
lets his fashionably trimmed hair
alone, throws no dreamy glances
into space, but goes about his busi
ness, which is to do justice to his
composed. He has a tremendous
technic always at his command, and
there is an abundance 'of assurance
and positiveness in his ' execution,
and his playing is authoritative.

Worth of Shoes to Poor
During the Past Winter
The Bee's free shoe fund has been
audited and a statement of its opera
tions made, so that the hundreds
who contributed to it may see the
good which their money accom
plished! The total amount contributed to
the fund, out of which shoes were
bought for hundreds of poor child
ren, was $1,JM.17. -
Shoes were bought by the com
mittee and paid for by The Bee to
the value of $1,326.81, as follows:
From Burgess-Nash company. .... .$376.68
From Brandeis stores 650.08
From Hayden Brothers company... 302.80
From Douglas Shoe company. 98.25
There is a balance in the fund of
$24.36. With the advent of spring
and warm weatljer the need for
shoes for poor children is no longer
pressing. The Bee's fund, there
fore will be discontinued for the
present, to be renewed, if there is
need, when cold weather comes
again.

Korean Uprising
Threatens to Engulf
the Entire Nation
"Tokio, Sunday, April 12. (By
Associated Press.) The uprisings
in Korea are spreading and threaten
to engulf the whole peninsula, says
an official statement from the Jap
anese government today. There
have been serious riots in the last
three days in hundreds of places!
A number of policemen have been
killed and several police stations
and postoffices destroyed.
Telegraph wires, the statement
adds, have been cut in various places
and bridges and 'homes of Japanese
burned. The statement continues:
"The fact that the situation has
grown worse ffiav be attributed
chiefly to the activities of Koreans
abroad, especially in Vladivostok,
who seek to propagate bolshevism
in Korea and thence in Japan."
It is believed here that the dis
turbances will be suppressed rigor
ously by the military. Press dis
patches say Japanese troops have
fired on mobs in different parts of
Korea and killed many persons.
