THE musical outlook this year it
unusually c promising. Thert
are more teachers opening
studios in Omaha than ever before,
and those who have been establish
ed here for many years say that the
prospects are for a full and busy
season. . . ,,
The war is over, Omaha is full of
people, all of whom are busy, and
with commercial prosperity it isbut
natural that the arts should come
in for a share of interest and atten
tion. Music, in one's life may be
anything one wants it to be. It
may be an amusement, an accom
plishment, a . science and an art, or
any one of them. But whatever it
is, the person who- has the oppor
tunity to study it and to improve
himself in his expression through it,
is fortunate indeed and he should
make the most of his spportumties,
Two unique recitals took place in
Omaha last week, one in connection
with the Edison "Re-Creations" and
the other in connection with the
Knabe "Ampico." The manufac
turers of these two different inven
tions, -dealing with music,, feel that
they have developed them to so
near a point of perfection that they
dare to have the artists who have
made records appear with their ma
chines in public performance." This
opens up ft new neia ot activity ior
the concert artist, and furnishes a
species of musical entertainment
that is unusually interesting.
tt puts an artist upon nis mettie
to sing in unison with his own rec
ords. The record taken is supposed
to be as perfect as it is possible for
the artist to make. The least devi
ation from pitch, unusual liberty in
time or enunciation, or other change
at the time he sings with the instru
ment is bound to be more or less
perceptible to the listeners. He is
not tree to indulge in even tne
slightest alteration according to his
musical feeling at the time, nor is
he free to forget anything. He
must follow himself upon the ma
chine, or else drop out ana let tne
machine do it alone. This the ar
tists do frequently, in order that
comparisons may be made between
the voice and its reproduction.
These concerts are splendid adver
tisements for the machines whicn
they represent. It really is remark
able that such perfect results may
be obtained.
It was often mystifying to tell
when the singer began, and when
the singer ended, except by watch
ing as well as listening. Mme.
Marie Rappold, soprano of the
Metropolitan Opera company, Ma
rio Laurenti, baritone of the same
company, and Jacques Glockner, cel
list, gave the first recital, and
George Copeland, pianist, was heard
in ' connection with the Knabe
"Ampico." -
In the case of the second recital,
it was remarkable how nearly the
touch, the phrasing and musical in
flections of the player could be re
produced mechanically. Mr. Cope
land is well known in the east for
his excellent piano playing and with
the use of his clever attachment to
the piano, he is probably known in
many communities where he has
never been. -. --! .
These concerts are invitation af
fairs, without financial obligation
and the crowds of interested listen
ers are surprising. Thursday eve
ning the Boyd Theater was packed
irom pit to gallery, and another
large audience found its way to the
Coming With the Chicago
; , Opera Company.

These concerts are of untold value
to the audience in the fascinating art
of listening. It holds the ear acuve,
and the attention concentrated, to
try to detect differences and to
make comparisons. One listens
sharply, and consciously or subcon
sciously one hears beautiful, well
trained voices, fine musical tone and
good music as well. These recitals
not i only exhibit the perfection of
the inventions they display, but they
do much for the spread of good
music, and in the development of a
musical public.
The seats for the Chicago Grand
Opera company are ging rapidly
and the local management is quite
pleased with the interest shown.
"Aida" will be presented in its en
tirety in this production. "Aida"
has been here often without the bal
let and without many of the spec
tacular attractions with which it is
presented in Chicago 'and New
York. This is one of the most Kor
geous of all operas, and, presented
in its entirety, it will be a magnifi
cent performance.

Sidney" Silber. in "Reflections for
Serious Piano Students," in the
Musical Courier, says, among other
things:
There is a type of concert-goer
who cannot appreciate the difficul
ties of the keyboard unless the ef
fort of the executant is manifested
by exaggerated gestures and the
shedding of an abundance of perspi
ration. The truly great pianist ne4
gotiates all mechanical difficulties
with utmost ease and does not aim
to appeal to persons who are more
impressed by thj, flashy colors of
an imitation diamond than by the
colors of nature's own product.

40,000 Miles Private
Wires Are Used Bv
Chicago Grain Firm
Chicago, Sept. 27. (Special Tele
egram.) Announcement that 40,000
miles of private wires are in daily
use by a single firm on the Chicago
Board of Trade has drawn attention
to the immense extent of territory
now constantly within a moment's
reach of the grain and provision pits
on 'change here. Some of the sys
tems of leased wires radiate both to
the Atlantic and the Pacific coasts
and to Canadian cities, as well as to
points on the Gulf of Mexico and to
dorens of nearer communities.
The largest number of telegraph
ers engaged in Chicago by any of the
Board of Trade houses is about 50.
Orders to buy and sell constitute
the bulk of the work of these teleg
raphers, most of whose activity is
during exchange hours, 9:30 a. m. to
1:15 p m.
Rivals of the Board of Trade firms
in regard to magnitude of private
wire systems are few. The fargest
outside of the railroads and the
newspapers is said to be the United
States Steel corporation. It is esti
mated that there are 100 Board of
Trade firms that have their own
private wires, and that each of these
100 firms has an average of 300
miles of wire.

Statement of Salaries Paick
Before and After

. . i
Lincoln, Sept. 27.--(SpeciaI.) Th

saving to the taxpayers of the state

Farmers Must Be
$500 Men With $500
Land, Says Experl
. v
Chicago, - Sept. 27. (Special.)--American
farmers are "struc-srlin- to
nget away from being $100 farmers
on $100 land and realize they must
be "$500, farmers on $500 land,"
John A. Cavanagh, vice president ol
the Des Moines, la., National bank,
told the members of the Farm Mort
gage Bankers' Association of Amer
ica at their convention here.
Whiie the increase in the price of
farm lands for the nation has been
15 to 0 per cent in the last year, he
said the advance in the middle west
has been from 50 to 100 per cent and,
while he believed the price of farmi
products would decline within the
next few years, he predicted no drop
in the price of farm land for the next
decade. ,
"With every farm bringing th
price now being paid for it, we are
going to learn everything that every
nation can teach us," Mr. Cavanagh
said. "There is not a nation in the
world that cannot teach America
something about farming and we
have already begun to learn."
Farming will continue to provide
a reasonable return on both capital
and labor invested, he thought.
"Farming will be conducted more
scientifically than ever before, and
a new type of intensive farmer will
result from the decrease in the value
of farm products and the increase in
the value in farm land," was his pre
diction. I . -
Tomato Can Star Gets
False Shehriff In Trouble
Vincennes. Ind., Sept. 27. A
bright and shining star brought John
Savage to grief. John and 19 othert
were employed to maintain th
peace and dignity of the Knox coun
ty fair at all hazards. As an em
blem of his authority John displayed
upon his lapel a star. So noticeable
was the star that arrest was speedy.
Mayor 'McDowell said $5 and costs
would square the matter. The charge :
was impersonating an officer. John
admitted that the star, a large one,
was cut from a tomato can.
