PUTTING UP THE BLINDS “Feolety Events Grow Smaller as the Summer Advances, HELEN GOULD'S PRESENCE IN THE CITY minated the Social Past Seven Days— Swells— Weddings that Have I Pago During the Little Doing Among th Movements and Whereabouts. The presence of Miss Helen Gould in Omaha last week, although she didn’t honor any one of the swell set with a visit, reminds the writer that within a very short time she will be with her brother, Mr. George Gould, and family, for a London season and that on her return she will take her place at the head of the swell set of Nbv York. Miss Gould Is a woman of great in- telligence and more that the average amount of good Although somewhat reserved in manner, she has a charm peculiarly her own, and a magnetism that ~draws everyhody to her and makes them her friends. She is a brilllant woman, not superficially brilliant in the way of quick repartee, although she is never at a loss for this, but brilllant in the sense of a well ordered mind. Add to these terider and af- disposition and an annual income which Is constantly increasing, representative of a family of who e following in the footsteps of the Vanderbilts and Astors to secure a foreign footing before knocking at the door of swelllom in New York to be coldly snubbed by blue blooded familfes who trace their ancestry back to the minuets and the Stuyvesants. Miss Gould is accom- panled on her trip by her younger brother, Frank Gould, a slim young fellow of 18, who is enjoying his first outing from school for a number of years. While he showed in his questions, to a representative of The Bee, all the boyish enthusiasm over the strangeness of things, his questions were full of good business sense and he seemed to grasp financial problems with alacrity, displaying a certain bent which his father 80 Infinitely possessed. Like his brother George, Frank will go into business and 18 turning all his faculties in that direction. Not in trade, possibly, but will be given a department of the vast property to manage after he has finished his school days. He is n most agreeable young man, although wonderfully diffident” for one who has had 80 many superior advantages. Pretty June Wedding. The residence of Mel H. Hoerner, 1606 Bouth Thirty-third street, was the scene last Wednesday évening of one of the pret- tlest weddings of the season, the contracting parties being Miss Elva M.

IN LOCAL MUSICAL CIRCLES, The Mozart male quartet raised the stand- ard of male quartet music in Omaha at a, concert glven last Tuesday evening at Kountze Memorial church to an enthu- siastic audience that crowded the auditorium, The quartet received the assistance of Mrs, L. T. Sunderland, soprano; Mr. Fred . Abel, tenor; Mr. Lyman Searles, reader, and Mr. E. Harnisch, pianist. The quartet con- tains four well ‘balanced voices, and under the direction of W. H. Neidlinger of New York - their work could not but be good. The program opened up with “My Pretty Maid,” by the quartet, m composition by Mr. Neldlinger, a short piece, which seemed more suitable as an encore than a number on the program. “In Absence” was handled Wwith intelligence and sung with good ex- pression. A Little Peach” was a very taking num- ber, and the difficulties of Dudley Buck's arrangement of “Annle Laurie” were handled in a masterly manner. Mrs, L. T. Sunderland gave the andience a treat with her faultless rendition of *For- bidden Music,” by Gastaldon, the selection onabling her' to display a rich soprano voice, forcing a well deserved encore. Mr. Abel, with his' pure tenor voice, sang two selections, responding to an encore to each. Mr. Hoffman was heartily applauded upon his singing “Hybrias de Cretan,” showing a low bass voice with tremendous volume, Mr. Searles entertained his hearers with two select readings, which were pleasing, Excellent technique marked the playing ot Mr. Harnisch. Tho quartet are to be congratulated upon the arrangement of 8o successful a program. The Festival of Song, for which prepara- tions have been in progress for several weeks, will be given by the pupils of the public schools in the Fifteenth Street the- ater on Thursday and Friday evenings of this week. The entertainment will be under the direction of Miss Fannie Arnold, super- visor of music, and her assistant, Miss Alice Hitte. The pupils will be assisted by Mrs. Carrie Nye, mezzo soprano, Mr. Jules Lumbard, basso, and Mr. Martin Cahn, ac- companist, The festival Is planned on a scale larger than has ever been known in any similar entertainment in this city, and will be an event of more than ordinary importance. It was originally Intended to give the festival in the Coliseum, where the entire chorus of over 2,000 voices could be employed. The difficulty of obtaining seats compelled the managers to change their plans, and as there s no other building in the city which would accommodate such a monstrous af- fair it was decided to divide the chorus into two divisions and repeat the program two successive evenings with entirely different choruses. On Thursday night the entertain- ment will be furnished by the pupils of the north eide, including the High school, and on Friday evening the same program will be rendered by the pupils of the south side schools. It is expected that each chorus will consist of about 1,200 voices. With the exception of the two oratorio oruses, the “Country Dance’ and the “‘Huntsmen's Chorus,” &ll the numbers are selected from compositions which have been a part of the regular work of the puplls during the year. In no case has more than the usual perfod of twenty minutes a day been taken for drill, the preparations for the entertainment have not been allowed to Interfore with the megylar musical cur- rlculum, The festivakds intended to show how much this twenty minutes a day has been made to accompdiste fn the musical education of the childran, and the rehearsals already given indicate that the result will be highly flattering to, Miss Arnold's skill and energy in perfecting the system. All the music that will b’ 'stng on this occas- sion has been read by’ the puplls and not learned by rote. That:in the brief time allowed each day for musical drill the pupils could be taught to read music of this charac- ter with accuracy and aing It with perfect taste and expression (s an accomplishment of which the teachers may be well proud. Durlng the entertainment an exhibition will also be given of the ‘method of teaching the puplls part and ehorus singing.

PETER'S Beantiful and Imposing Oeremonials At- tending the Service, AN AMERICAN'S IMPRESSION OF THE POPE The Holy Father Worshipped and Adored Almost Like a God—Spends 8 His Time In Prayer—News f the Eternal City. ROME, May 23.—(Speclal Correspondence of The Bee)—Great as Is the demand for kets to all the services at St. Peter's at which the holy father Is present it fs an unusual thing when an American falls to se- one, thanks to Mgr. O'Connell, president of the American college. Armed with the huge yellow squares of paper, which serve as tickets, black vells, gloves, ete., rosaries to have blessed for the Catholic friends at lome, we decided that all readiness for the pope. Along the streets leading to the church flowed a continuous stream of carriages and pedestrians even at an early hour. The houses from the bridge to the square were decorated with red in honor of the occasion. The first thing to attract attention upon nearing the church was the triple line of government soldiers drawn across the Diazza between the colonnades, thus encircling the half of the square toward the church and serving as a barrier to prevent the people from entering enmasse, At stated intervals along the line were placed six of the munic pal guards, that body of men everywhere noticeable in Italy for thelr splendid phy- sique and martial bearing, to inspect the tickets and point to the different entrancos. This last, however, was unnecessary as be- side each door huge placards, the color of the tickets, to the right yellow, to the left pur- ple, were posted. The center entrance was reserved for the pllgrims, a great number having come from Spain. Inside the church all the guards belong to the Vatican, for whenever the pope has a service at St. Peter's, for the time it s his. The men at the door wore dress suits, with flowers in their buttonholes, and inspected our tickets well before allowing us to pass Inside a wide alsle was partitioned off fron the body of the church, the teryorary wall hung in red tapestry, with doors leading into the main wings. At each of these doors were stationed several of the Swiss guards, tall fellows In costumes which strongly resemble those of circus clowns, striped blue, red and yellow. Another in- spection of the tickets—still another and we were at last in our destined places with the prospect of three hours waiting before us. THE CONFESSIONAL. The only advantage this had to counter- balance the tediousness of the situation was that it gave us ample time to see the ar- rangements made for the accommodation of the people and the decoration of the church. The confessional, with its beautiful statue of Pius VL, by Cauova, was beau- tifully ornamented with flowers, while the " altar itself presented a mar- velous appearance with its magnificent vases and altar cloths. St. Peter himself was arrayed in pink satin, a papal crown upon his’ head, on his breast a diamond star and a ring of the same precious stones on the two fingers of the hand raised in Dlessing. As the time advanced denser and the air warmer. The only seats which remained vacant until the time for the service to begin were in the tribunal for which a limited amount of tickets had been issued. The balconies were filled, even in the whispering gallery, high up in’the dome could be seen what appeared to be a delega- tion of liliputians. It was a sight never to be forgotten. The wonderful cathedral, dwarfing by its great height the mass of human beings within, the strange assembly, black-robed women wearing no head dress but lace, the priests and monks in the gowns of their various orders, nuns telling their beads, here and there a soldier or one of the noble guard, very striking in their short black coats, tight-fitting white trousers, top boots and heavily plumed hats, all lighted by the sun from the south windows, dimming the glow of the altar candles. At the time I thought, ““How could it be more beautiful?" but when the procession entered I realized that before the principal feature of the pic- ture had been missing. The time for the service had been given for 9 o'clock, but the hour passed and the crowd began to get restless. Near us were three red-checked English girls, indignant at the jostling which they had recelved from an’ unruly Italian, on the other side a_ fair-haired daughter of Holland with a physically feeble but energetic mother who had insisted upon being at the cathedral before 6 o'clock and was so worn out that the Boston representative of our party half supported her during the three hours, she declaring in quaint broken English that surely the Americans were the most courage- ous people in the world. Then there was the inevitable woman who was not satisfled with having room enough for three persons, the patient child, effectually shut off from all view by the tall ones about her, and the young man 5o bent upon finding a good posi- tion for his sweetheart as to be utterly ob- livious to the fact that others were present, equally desirous of keeping near the front. Toward half-past 9 a general murmur was heard at the entrance, which gradually ex- tended over the whole church, combined with smothered exclamations of *“Here he comes,” “Ecco,” “Le voila,”” etc., but it soon sub- sided, 50 we knew that it was a report only. HIS HOLINESS APPEARS. At last the pope came and this time there was no mistaking the sound of the trumpets and the cheers which greeted his approach as the procession moved slowly down the alsle toward the altar between two lines of soldiers in the midst of thousands of people waying thelf handkerchlefs and shouting “Viva il papa re,” ‘“Long live the pope king,” “Viva, viva, viva.” From where we stood I could sce the red gowps of the cardinals in an indistinct mass and soon the pope himself came into view, carrled on a throne with a large fan-shaped affair on either side, just as he I8 £o often photographed. But toespeak truthfully I was 80 eager to see the man himself, the living head of the great Romish church, the ruler of more subjects than any crowned king, that I gave little attention to the sur- roundings and strained my eyes only to see him. The distance was too great to distin- guish his features, so I saw the general effect only as he descended the throne and entered the altar, almost hidden by his car- dinals. The cholr had been singing during the processional and jts excellence has not been overestimated, for it would be impossible to find more perfectly tralned volces or more exquisite harmony than In the choir of St. Peter's. The fine soprano of Moreschi, the pope's angel, as he Is sometimes called, could be clearly heard above the lower volces of the choristers, always in perfect accord, As the cholr finished singing the pope, with all the priests, sank upon their knees, the people stood with reverently bowed heads, all praying silently, while the music of the silver trumpets seemed to fill not only the mighty temple erected to the father of man- Kkind, but to soar far above the lofty dome, bearing to the throne above in one great strain of melody the prayers of his peo- ple. The service was the usual high mass, interesting even to those who did not un- dorstand it, by its great impressiveness, The pope I could see, but so indistinctly that T feared the face was wholly imaginative on my part and that I really did not see it. The crowd was qulet now, but the heat was in the crowd grew continusd to Increase untll it became un- bearable, so In desperation wo left our places and moved toward the front of the church, where the people were fewer and the alr better. By so doing we managed to got within a fow feot of the alsle through which the pre cossion would pass on leaving the altar, W had not long to wait. We could seo that the pope hadsleft the altar and could hear, first, @ atrong volee reading, then a weakor buf clear and penotrating one, which a priest told us was that of the holy father giving the benediction. Very slowly they advanced Every fow feot the pope stopped to bless the peopl IMPRESSIONS OF POPE LEO XIIT I was watching for the throne, my rosar fes in one hand (the left), when I heard a timid voleo beside me say Put the ross fes In the right hand, miss The accent was unmistakable even fn a Roman crowd Who could fail to recognize the familiar tones of one of the sons of Ireland? 1 turned and saw that it was a young priest evidently with the oldor one who had talked with me before und who had told his col league to tell me of the beads. The little priest changed color as I looked at him. He was very young and unused to the position but just at that moment the pope appeared His ‘enthusiasm overcame his shyness, and, wurning to me with a delighted smile on his open, honest countenance, he exclaimed “Aln't he lovely That is not the word to describe Leo XIIT There 18 no one word in the language for the exquisite dignity and sweetness, the benignity and graciousness of the man Little wonder fs it that the great church echoed and re-echoed with the vivas of his devoted people. Until he moved he seemed a beautiful waxen figure, so pale and ethereal he appeared, dressed in a white gown em- broidered in the purest gold, the papal crown, with its great emerald, upon his white head Slowly he rose, lifted his hand in blessing above the people with a smile of the most paternal love, then sank back, only to rise in an instant. Despite the brilliancy of his glance one could sce how weary he was. Time has treated him gently; he s still one of the intellectual giants of the age, but the physical powers of endurance are greatly lessened, Repeatedly he rose, while cach time the ex- citement increased, and with it the vivas, which continued long after the pope had dis- appeared and the great crowd was leaving the church. Outside the ch recom- menced; inside, in the excitement of the moment, the people were kissing the carpet where he had stood and the rail which his hand had touched. The great square w, black with people, and for along time the carrlages could make no headway toward the brid On every corner were pictur of the pope for sale by people who had per- haps never seen him and to whom he is almost a god. All the rest of the day the face of the pope was in my memory and he is to me no longer a myth of whom many tales are told, but a reality. I know now just how he said to the Protestant lady who refused to kneel to him, “My daughter, an old man's blessing can do you no harm.” And also I can see that he Is the man who laughed 50 heartily when last summer an American shook him heartily by the hand, saying, “How are you. I'm glad to meet you. I knew your father, the late Pope Pius IX.” While leaving the church I heard a man say that the holy father now spends much time in prayer and occupies himself less with the affairs of state than formerly. How true this is T know not, but there is something about the pope, an “‘enter terre et ciel” ap. pearance, which bespeaks the man of prayer, and even those who went to this service for curiosity alone will never forget the be- nign countenance and kindly smile of Leo XIII. FAMOUS ARTIST DEAD. It was a shock to the artistic world at Rome when it became known on Saturday last, May 19th, that Sig. Vannutelll had passed away (he preceding night. After dining with a party of friends he returned home with his wife and daughter apparently in the best of health and spirits, but in less than an hour later sank into & sleep from which he never awoke. For many years Sig. Vannutelli has been one of the leading artists of Rome and was universally admired not only as a great painter, but a true gentleman. The sincer- est sympathy is felt for his widow and daughter in their sad bereavement. The funeral,” which took place on the following Monday, was largely attended by artists, academiclans, ete. Mass was said at the church of Santa Maria del Popolo, from whence the cortege continued its way to the cemetery. BISHOP NEWMAN AT ROME. The Americans In the Eternal City gave Bishop and Mrs. Newman a hearty welcome and a large audience attended the laying of the corner stone of the new Methodist Episcopal church, where the bishop con- ducted the services and gave a most enjoy able discourse upon the ‘‘History of Rome." The Sunday following the bishop preached in the old Methodist church and the next day many of us had the pleasure of meeting both the bighop and Mrs. Newman at a re- ception given in their honor by the consul, Mr. Jones, and his sister. Noticeable among the guests were the ambassador and ambassadress, with thelr charming daugh- ter. The bishop appeared to be in good health and enjoying his trip. He spoke most pleas- antly of his last return to Omaha and of its mayor, Mr. Bemls. Queen Margherita fs now at Capodimonte, at Naples, with the crown prince, where she will stay a month.
