THE OMAHA DAILY BEE FRIDAY, JUNE 11. 1886, 4 SOUNDS OF MELODY AT NIGHT. re - | ease, all of whic| And the Intelligence of the Metropolis Listen to Them. GREAT NIGHT OF THE FESTIVAL- Board of Bducation—The Nebraska Sportsmen—The Douglas County Teachers and Other Local Matters. The Audience. , By common consent, everyone secemed to feel that that the andience last night at the festival would be ths Iargest of the season. And so it was, Half an hour's grace was given it to take its place, and, at that time, the solid ranks, two and three deep, which then extended from the entrance to Fifteenth, were unkroken. Several more minutes of delay resulted En the street being cleared, and the most ‘tardy ones being consigned to the seats selected by them. The audience was perhaps the most picturesqne which has ever nssembled in Omaha. It was attired with becomin, appreciation of the warm weather, ani wyet with such a variety of design and color as to make a thing of remarkable interest and beauty. 3 J The audience, notwithstanding the in- nse heat, seemed cool and comfortable, vory window was open and a thousand fans of overy conceivable shape, size and previous condition of usage, mded in the circulation of_currents which made the auditorium most comfortable. The seating of the atendance was accomplished without a hitch. The ar- rangements in this respect were simple, effective, perfectly understood and most completely carried out. The young gen- tlemen who degerve credit for thiy are Churles Gyger, Fred Sargent, Frank Hollinger-k red McCormack, Frank Flot- well, Burt Sampson, Richard O'Reilly, Drake O'Reilly and Ralph Bettinger. The auditors and management are in no slight manner indebted to these young gentlemen, Lohengrin. ~~ Wagner’s operas are strange to our people. Especially so is ‘‘Lohiengrin.” The beautiful Swan son, served to popu- larize it. It was delighttully sung by “'Mr. Hirschbach. This young gentleman §sone of the most promising tenors in this -part of the country. But his has been a disagrecable fi ce his arrival. His throat has bee; 50 a8 to make it smalmost imp for him to intone without pain. And yet, he has been singing with remarkable effect. Last ~ night, however, he was forced to ‘abandon all his other leces, because of this annoyance, hdin some of these, under diflerent cir- oumstances, he could easily have distin- guished himself, f *‘Oh, Let the Arm of Right be Strong,’’ the first quintette of the festival, wasren- dered by Mr. Brode: Mme. Fursch- * Madi, Miss Huntington, Mr. Hirschbach, Professor Gill, the chorus following. The rendition of this won ul piece, was a revelation of the niceity of discrimina- tion, sweetness of tone and exceeding mastery of voice which distinguished the several parts of the piece. At one time, the entire attention is directed to the so- . pranos and basses, which themo, until the other parts f: dramatic cffect. The leadership principals seemed confident of their sup- port, and lllclpiuue as 4 consequence was “most agreeable, ... The crowning work of the night, and indeed of the festival, was the bridal _chorus. Beautiful in itself, with a rfl.hmic movement, gmduaUufi mto one + almost martial feeling, it readily finds favor witn both chorus and orchestra. Last night the chorus sang most tenderly +and sweetly in the rustic phases of the idea, while'in the bolder, it rushed to the attack with a vigor and volume which fairly set everybody excited. The enthu- siasm extended all'through the house, to that degree that the last wave of the baton had not been made when a vocifer- ous demand was made for the repitition of the piece. ‘The accompaniment was rendered on the harp by Mme Chatterton. This lady is a virtuoso of undoubted talent. She has wonderfully nimble fingers and rllonty of force, and she plays with good . taste and sentin which’is froe from " exaggeration. The most remarkable fea- . ture of her performance was the variety of tones which she produced, and this, I with the accuracy of her execution in ex- trumel{ rapid passages, showed her a % (Lhnp-p ayer of exceptional powers. i (3 Aida: 1 Puritani. / © 'The triumphant march by the orchestra is not a tuneful composition. It exacts a great deal from the musician and fails to ropay the effort., Yetat was played well. The contralto solo, Non Pin Mesta,” was the event of the evening. If the iseloction had been made to test the flexi- bility and compass of Miss Huntington’s yvoice, and likewise discover her method, # more satisfuctory piece eould scarcely « have been found. Itaboundsin difticulties - yof the chromatic order, and ranges from the lowest to the highest . Tegisters. And yet 1t was sung with seomposure, dignity and comparative ich resulted in an enthusi- 'rmlo recall, which lasted long after the ly had disappeared oft the stage. Her ! response was Schubert’s classical picce Ungedunde. ? fessor Gill, whom an untoward fate Lhas kept from due recognition by this scribe, threw his whole soul into tio pLiberty duoet, from Puritani, singing his _part with force, vigor, intelligence and ramatio. His voice nicely blended with ¢ that of Mr, Broderick, and both were re- rwurdml by warm applause. i Zenobia, There is a heaviness about the title and 'y of Zenobia whicn frightens one at ight. In his treatment of the theme, r. Pratt has introduced many startling _ inconsistencies, both as regards the time L of transition and the subject under elab- | oration. You are, so to speak, deafened o the thunder of alarms, and suddenly ears find it difficult, to distinguish the of the wind You are be- overwhelmed by the avalanch and, the next instant ‘s musical flower 0 ms within your reach. Of the treat- nt of the massive part of the story, it be pronoucced asuccess. It is ; rous without being effective, and aln::bnrm without apparent intelligent 8 ign. The lighter subjects are wmost leasantly handled, aud ‘some of them y a8 pretty as one would like to hear. ut they seem out of place in Zenobia, and were cntircly unsnited to an auditorium, Mme. ot 8 ptian Lullaby w - a recall, Miss Pierse’s sucee: ~ where adverted to.

Mr. Fratt isa 50 Fursch esy n provoked is else ust ad soneszo I l living proof of the truth of this 1o has been the thewe the object of and the vietim of much abuse. Happily, he is not par- ticularly known in Omaha as one who has been severely handled in certain places. To the peoplo of this city o is known s an aspiring musician, to the chorus, which for thirteen wecks he has been training, he is respected as a hard- working, enthusiastic, indefatigable leader, n corteons gentleman and an af- fable friend. Smee bis first appoarance here, nothing has occurred to mar the lrleml]{ relations which are so agreeable when found existing under the circum- stances. Of his work the public has already re- corded an opinion. It has been not un- like that of all other directors. It has been successful in_some things, unsuc- cessful in others. He has been remark- abl,{ suceessful in this respect that he took a chorus of strange woices, many of which had never cither heard or sung a note of any ofthe pieces which have now been heard for the last time, and fash- ioned them nto an_organization which Lias been the marvel of the best musicians whom we now entertain from Chicago. Tms Imlvrcufnm:oun mass, in thie teen weeks, he led to- accomplish what ordinarily requires in other locali- ties for six months to one year. In sing- ing with them, the old and tried and I)romislm’ ?«:u le whom he brought from Chicago, felt that they in no manner were humiliating themselves in singing with a chorus which had so earnestly striven and been so wonderfully successful. Mr. Pratt may retire from Omaha with the esteem and contidence of every citi- zen, the appreciation of every lover of music and the well wishes of every per- son who appreciates honesty of purpose, devotion and onthusiasm. It was a kindly tribute of the Chicago chorus, which remembered him with a basket of beautiful flowers after the close of his overture from ‘‘Zenobia.” Miss Hortense Plerse. Among the principals ot this festival, youth, beauty, musical culture and fu- ture promise, have been distinguishing characteristics. And of those possessing these, nane hus been more conspicuous than Hortense Pierse. She is compara- tively new in the profession, yot her as- pirations are those of an artist, not in any manner beneath her ability, and yet, not beyond the possibility which is even now apparent. She is one of the handsomest young women in the profession. Her complexion is that of tho blush rose, fresh and tra Her eyes are large and sugges preciative smiles and equable tempera- ment. Her head is finely formed, rests firmly upon a pair of beautiful shoulders, and ~is surrounded by a wreath of bair of richest sunlight. Her voice is a sweet soprano, pure, clear and resonant, ~Its training has i it flexibility and strength, and es- P Ily in the higher notes a compass and correctness most grateful to consider. Last nizht she sang alone after- Fursch- Madi, n *Zenobia,” *0, Give me Back my Native Hills,” reaching high C, and sustamning it in & most successful man- ner, while the audience warmly insisted upon a recall, The effect of the picce was gratifying and was accompanied by a beautifal “bouquet from admiring friends. of The Artis Up to the present writing proof has not been wanting that the stars of this festival have come provided with trunks of wardrobe. Some of them have ap- peared every might, and yet, they have not appeared a second time in the same costume. Last night Miss Huntington appeared in a cream white Ottoman silk. with train of the same material, - Tho latter was edged with full rusching of silk. The waist was cut square with plaitings of crepe and puffed staves of the same material, with fancv edged ribbon-bows. There were full draperies on the skirt of striped crepe, with™ wider fancy edged ribbons catching up the drn})ery in difter- ent places. A large sash fell from the outside of the waist at the back, and was trimmed with large dots of silk rusching, Her ornaments were diamonds and pearls, among which was the exquisite pin of saflvhlrea and diamonds given to this lady by tho princess of Wales. Miss Henninges was attired in white brocaded satin with yellow daisies. She wore a pendant of mother of pearl in- closing a brilliant diamond, which was found in a bouquet presented to her in New York. She wore a court train, and the front of the dress was trimmed with duchesse lace and pearls. Miss Pierse’s dress in front was of rhadamas satin trimmed with crystal beads, while i$ was also beautifully " and elaborately embroiderod. The train was en court, the sleeves short and the neck cut low. Her ornaments were a most beautiful maltese cross of diamonds with a spray of brilliants inr her hair. Mme Fursch Madi wore a maroon velvet trimmed with real pearl beads fashioned into the shape of .bunches of grapes in tints of pink, green, white and gold. The front was" literall; with the beautiful articles. The neck was low, the sleeves short. The dress was an importation and bore the seal of Worth, Douglas County Birch Swingers. The- meeting of the Douglas County Teachers’ association, which was ealled st Superintendent Bruner’s office yester- afternoon, failed to materi very few of the teachers appearing at the appointed hour. A meeting was held last evening, however, at which consid- erable preliminary work was disposed of and the following programme arranged for the meeting to be held at the county superintendent’s oflice to-dey, com- meneing at 9 a. m.: Musie, Paper—'"Tho True Alm,"” Miss covered ...

The Cut of the Uake, the Valet and French Maid—The Cabinet in Scissor-Tails—The Siege of the Correspondents, Wasmnaron, June 9.—[Correspond- ence of the Bk |—Through the gentle vibrations «of elcetricity -— and many thanks to the inventor of thesame happy medium—all the world and his sister is gabbing to his or her (men never talk about such things) neighbor about the wedding of all weddings, which came off ai the white house Wednesday night, June 2, 7 o'clock sharp, And a truly democratic wedding it was in every sense, a real old-fashioned country wed- ding of the strict Presbyterian faith, where all the ladies kiss the bride and the gentlemen, poor. follows, stand ‘and look on and smack their lps. In this special instance all the men present wWerd firm believers of “‘equal rights,” and no doubt would have stood the test of re: peating several times in honor of the occasion, But’the code of church and state were against them, and theit en- thusiastic feelings had to ocoze out of their finger tips while squeezing the dear! creature’s hand. Lordy! Gan't these disq tinguished officials do a good deal of that kind of silent" admiration when a heavy pressure is brought to bear upon them? For real unadulterated tender sentiment President Cleveland’s cabinet is pecus liar—Secretary Whitney wearing the belt. His eyes were not only filled with regret- ful tears, but his mouth watered long+ ingly and his pretty peach-blow face looked so wistful and pathetic. Poor Whitney! it is too bad HIS NAME IS ‘‘BILL."” He ought to be called Romeo, with Emma Abbott as Julict, théen he'd get enough of it, Secretary Lamar was the first to arrive, and didn't scem to know exactly what he had arrived for, so dazed was he over the blissful occasion, He wandered dreamily about like one of Dante’s lost souls, try- ing to find himself. I don't think that man ever knows it is himself. A gleam of self-consciousness passed wearily over his tired face as he gazed in a far-oil way at the beautiful bride, no doubt wishing that it was himself, Seeretary Manning has a pretty wife of his own, and no look of envy passed over his pale visage as he viewed the *‘December and May"' hitch before him. The rest of the cabinet behaved pretty well, considering it was the first thing of the kind they ever attended. It wasno 0 with the attorney-general. He said o wouldn’t and ne didn't. “Garland,’ said Grover, ‘“‘you may jump the ditch and come to my weddingin your country- made fly-back, no matter if it is a little shiny and here and there a.button miss- ing.” I don’t care a button anyway. You know I am about to make a trial trip down the stream of life, and it woul please me very much to have you witnes: the launching of the snug little craft; in other words, Garland, my boy, we'll throw all society forms to the dogs; come to my wedding; you must, swallow-tail or no swallow-tail.”” But Garland, the wretch, was not softened one bit, andthe knot was tied all the same, and every- body said it was 5 A REAL JOLLY WEDDING. As one of the guests said, ‘‘the bride looked too sweet for anything,” and didn't seem to realize that she was about to become the ‘‘first lady in the land,” and the hflppf; bridegroom—well, he just appeared tickled to death! Just as soon as they got spliced and the shakes were over, each fellow grabbed his girl and made for the supper-room, where a cold bite was served in real pienic style, be- ginning with soft-shell crabs and cham- gufine to sharpen the appetite, while the ride was cutting the cake. There is nothing mean about her. She cut good, big, thick slices and dispensed the hos- italities with a graceful, generous hand, er hubby looking on with that calm, contented air !peculh\r to new husbands. He couldn’t hel lnugg\ingm save his life, and why shouldn’t he? The prize was his. It was fun to sec the rice flyas the | newly wedded couple came down the stairs all equipped for a bridal journey. Every fellow took a handful and threw it at the president, filling his hair, neck and eyes, while the ladies ook oft their dainty slippers and threw thom as Mr. and Mr: Cleveland made their exit out of the. re parior window, where a carriage was in waiting to take them to the special train that was to carry them to Dear{that's the way we spell it now) park. And how fooled the big -erowd waitingin front of the white house were to have such a “‘march stole on them,” The newspaper reporters, bless them, several thousand in number, male and - female, perched themselves in every possible space and place, and with that vigilance known only to Washington correspondents, they were soon on the heels of the president’s carringe and escorted him to the side- track, bound to get a loak at the blissful couple as they entered the palace car, followed by the white house steward and Lena, Miss Cleveland’s maid, who had been loaned for the oceasion. It sounded well to say that “the president was at- tended by s valet and Mrs. Clevelan, by her French maid.’ Miss Cleveland loaned her maid to her sistor-in-law for the occasion, being willing to ecomb her own hair and button her own boots far a few days ]‘uut to have her brother go off’ in style. But Lena is no French maid— Just the sweetest Yankee girl. Now pos- sibly she may be German, the name sounds like it. At any rate, spe isa sweet, modest girl, and who knows but what she may be 1n some high political and social sition herself some day. There is no nowing who will fill that old executive mansion next. There isn't a shadow of a doubt that the happiest man present was DANIEL, THE PRIVATE SECRETARY, of course excepting the groomful ‘‘sire.”" O my! how that blithe httle man has worked and tugged to bring this matri- monial ship into fmrt with colors flying! It is he that has planned the whole thing; itis he that knows how the thing m:Ffi', to be done, Idon’t know, but I shouldn't wonder if he did some of the courting just to relicve the president, so willing and Kind is he, possibly he migl‘h haye done the ropuiug He is a safe man. He ean do more talking and give the least desired information of any man in the United States. And how l’lu did dodge the newspaper woman—not an thing to do—the day before the wed- Life to him was a howling wilder- ness of newspaper fiends. The swarming of bees over a pot of boiling preserves on a hot July day was nothing in com- arison. Daniel wanted to sell out, and he did to the polits and attentive oflicials of the white house, These gentlemon are naturally truthful and piois—rione others would bo ap- pointed—but on this special occasion they weve excusablo it they did streteh the truth and doa little inward swearlng. Next to the private secretary, Major Densmore was the ono most besieged, :nwilny by the ladies, who begged 1 to EM ALY ABOUT 1T, to save themw a picee of cake to dream upon, to press them o flower, to save the cowmbl; frosu the bride's hair jo into lockots, to cut ® button from Froom s shirt or pants, and wouldn't he have the distinguished couple write in their albums {usl bufore they went down stairs? "Couldn’t he QKsmby hide them away somewhere?®” }( d how he was tted by the newspaper men! Major densmore is a sixtfoot Vermonter and weighs about 223, pounds, but he ecan erawl through the smaliest hole and dis- flpvm\r where the newspaper man can't follow in a way to ébmmand the |||glu‘s.t approval of his chigf. 'In fact, he hasn’t his eanal in this 'rt.” Ho is gentle and persuasive of speech and manner, oblig- ing and gentlemanly to ail, and yet can do more sleek, slippery dodging than any other official about the tvhite house. And his !m\\-vrs were tixed to the utmost on the day of the wedding. The major was general-in-command ‘on the day and night of the wedding, and well he mar- shalled his forces. Captain_Kinnie is another very at- tractive official, quite unlike Major Den more in personal appearsnce, bein slender and delicate in physique, an pronounced very fascinating to {adies who like moon-on-lake beauty. He is a relative of the private secretary and therefore an object of attack, thinking he is a little closer to the throne. But you miight as well try to pump water out of the sandy desert as to lr{ to pump news out of that official. He stands as immov- able as the Washington monument, but tue difference between him and the name- sake of that mouument is, he can toll a lio; and did tell several of them on the residont's wedding day. But he'll be orgiven, aseveryone else will for all that . was a little off on that great day. O, but we are glad the president is married and that there will be an end to all the fulsome (no pun intended) talk about the matter. At the present writing he is régting at Deer park. We all nee (,“est' p CON. TERRRT I THE STATE SPORTSMEN.

CireAdo, Jane 11 pecial Telegram to the Brr.|—Wurar—Wheat wore a hopeless look most of the day. Its friends were few and the glory of the late bulge had departed, leaving in its wake a denser gloom than had been manifest before. The crowd has at length fully accepted true the reports which have been current lately, that there is no longer any syndicate under wheat. Pub- licand private eables were blue, and prices on the othar side were quoted as baing lower. The clearances of wheat from New York today are comprehended in the word “none,” ana exporting louses in that city telegraph their correspondents here that the large clearances from that part are about over, with absolutely no new business in sight. The receipts at primary western points are quite liberal, and although the back country is admittedly bare of supplies, &rain continues to come forward abundantly from somewhera. It seemod as though al- most every man who had any wheat sold it out to-day. The market rallied spasmodi- cally In response toa demand to cover shorts, butif it had any soltd support the fact was not vatent to the casual observer. Near tho onening values wero falrly steady and July sold up lge, August” to 76%¢, and Septomber " to 7T6lgc. Later t market sold down to Tige for July, 74ie for August, and 75%c for September.
