1t was not long since that the banjo was
the rage, when all the negro minstrel looking
chaps in town that could raise respectable
suit of clothes were in demand as teachers.
What possessed society girls to take up the
banjo is as easily answered as the question,
Who assaulted Mr.. Pattersona The banjo,
besides being an imperfect instrument at
best, is the one that affords the least
satisfactory accompaniment to the popular
arias of the day. Then it is not likely
that their delicate fingers could ever become
sufficiently callous to withstand the painful
wear ON the strings. So it is likely that it
was for this last reason that the mandolin
was adopted, as the strumming on the strings
is performed with what is called plectrum,
instead of the dainty fingers. The mandolin
is an instrument of Spanish origin, and was
possibly brought to the attention of our pub
lie first by the numerous roupes of Spanish
students who visit this country. 1t has eight
strings strung in couples, representing the
same tone, so that the strings themselves rep
resent but four notes. The object of the
double string is to produce the trill upon
which the effect largely depends. Mandolins
vary in price from IS to $500, and it is said
that one factory in Connecticut is running
night and day, turning out the imported"
mandolins that average abeut $25 in price
With the rage for mandolins came the neces-
sity for instructors, and it is astonishing the
number that have appeared, and the slight
knowledge of English they possess

TuE AMERIcAN. MANDoLIN pLAYER.

THE AMERICAN MANDOLIN PLAYER.
These Mandolin maestros are usually Ital-
ians, who will tell you "Aha! re banjoees no
good. Ze mandolin ees ah SO eezy, SO roman
teek," and this explanation OF the popularity
of their instrument is accompanied with the
usual shrug Of shoulders and distortion Of
: limbs and eyebrows. The artist has allowed
i his faneya little freedom il, the above picture,
and portrayed the signor as he appeared but
few years ago in his native costume, before
he was shaven, and crowded into the broad
cloth he wears at present And these are the
gentlemen who are now admitted into the
most fashionable parlors. The artist has also
caught exceedingly well the awkward manner
in which the instrument is handled by the
American amateur This primitive instru-
ment itself is as much out of place in the
elaborate surroundings of fashionable par
lor as its compass is i'll adapted to the
requirements of modern music, and it cannot
be long before it will be ornamented and hung
in company with its predecessor, the banjo,
as piece of wall decoration, and the future
beaus win have it pointed out to them as one
of the instruments on which the young ladies
could play so "lovely." But for the present,
inexorable fashion must have its fancy graft
fled, and when the dusky descendant of the
Ctesars finds his present occupation gone, he
will let his beard assume it's old-time growth,
once more sling the strap of the neglected
hand organ across his shoulders and proceed
to grind out his living as before. s. H. Fl.

Meeting of Citizens Who Favor Their
Control by Trustees.
The Citizens Committee met last
night at National Rifles Hall for the
purpose of discussing the question of
trustees for the public schools. Chief
Justice Cartier presided and Mr.. j. G.
Dulin acted as secretary.
Among those present who were in
terested in the schools were eX.Super.

ards, Jesse b. Wilson, DR.. G. p. Cul-
yer, Jacob G. Larner, DR.. Reyburn,
Rev. DR.. Chester, Rev. Dr. Domer and
Mr.. j. o. Little.
Resolutions were presented to the
meeting, which set forth the advisa-
bility of having the schools managed
by a board of trustees instead of by
the Commissioners. Attention was
called to the fact that the schools had
been governed in this manner for the
past eight years and the result was
very satisfactory to the public. The
number of such trustees was placed at
twenty. four, because there are 10000
pupils in the schools, and the trustees
should appoint teachers, janitors and
superintendents, Expenditures for the
schools should be reviewed by the
Commissioners.
Discussion followed, and Mr. Simon
Wolf was the first speaker. He com
mended the plan proposed, and said
that during no time had the schools
tlourished as they did under the man
agement of a full board of trustees.
DIR. ReyDurn refuted the idea that their
| bill reflected the ideas of few people,
DR.. Chester heartily approved the bill,
| DR.. Domer related conversations he
had had with teachers, parents and
| pupils, and said that they were all in
favor of the bill. Messrs. John Il.
| Given, w. II. Clagett and others spoke
| in favor of the bill.
