IMPORTANT NOTICE.

The Mozart conservatory of music, hay-
ing added to the list of its regular in
structors, Prof Charles A. Purdy, from
1873 to 1882 pupil in the royal conserva-
tories of LEIPZIG and Munich, Germany,
who will have special charge of the de-
partments of voice culture, choral singing
and orchestra ensemble, rs well as assist in
the departments of piano, pipe organ and
theory hereby begs leave to announce to
the citizens of Wichita its intention to
take decisive initiative step toward the
development of choral singing in the city
of Wichita. To further this intention. and
make its accomplishment possible we will
open a new department for choral singing
alone, which will receive as pupils any
one possessing the ordinary degree of
musical hearing and cultivate it to the
highest degree possible, at the same time
drilling the pupil in reading notes, appre-
ciating their rhythmic value at sight, and
to place the pitch with the voice, thereby
laying the foundation for a true under
standing of music, and facilitating the
subsequent study of the same. Applica-
cations for entrance to these first grades
will be received at any time at the Lewis
academy or the Garfield. Applicants for
first grades wishing evening lessons will
be accommodated. The more advanced
classes will be occupied in the study of
choral compositions and for this purpose
will meet on regular stated evenings in
the chapel of the Lewis academy.
1t is our earnest wish for all singers in
the city to enter this division which shall
be known as the Mozart Choral Union.
The chorus SO organized will participate
in the concerts and study oratoria with
orchestra accompaniment. At the COM
mencement we intend to produce some
oratorio with an orchestra which will be
reinforced by fine musicians from other
cities.
1t is our desire to awaken the livelieSt
interest among our citizens in the cause of
this noble art, and procure their hearty
cooperation toward achieving this object,
and thus by personal contact and mutual
effort not only lift the institution to a
place among the first, but also elevate and
crafty their own tastes for everything
truely aesthetic.
Prof. Purdy will at stated intervals
lecture on the subject of aesthetic, its
development, its significance in poycholo-
gical culture; it's relation to ethic; religion
and art; and history of music.
All singers and orchestral instrumental
lists are requested to meet with Profs.
Metcalf and Purdy for the purpose of
organizing choral union and orchestra, in
the chapel of Lewis academy next Monday
evening, February 3, at s O'Clock p. m.

CHRISTIAN ECONOMIC CLASSES.
From The Dawn,

From The Dawn,
The Christian Socialist society of Boston
propose to start economic classes for the
study of social problems There is a wide
felt need Of this. Many people, perhaps
the majority in this land, are convinced
there is something wrong about our pres
ent commercial and industrial relations;
they feel that in some way we ought to be
applying our Christianity to the temporal
affairs of man more than we are now do
ing, but they do not see just What to do or
just how to go to work. They want fur
Their study aud more light.
1t is proposed, therefore. to start econ
omic classes, not to commit the student to
any theory, but simply to study those So
cial questions from the standpoint of a
living applied Christianity. The follow
ing committee has therefore been organ
lied in Boston to have tie guidance OF
this work: Rev. w. ID. p. Bliss, Rev. A. q.
Lawson, D. D.. Mrs. Mary A. Livermore,
Bev. O. p Clifford, Rev. Nehemiah Boyn-
ton. Rev. f. +. Hale. ID. D., Mr.. Robertson
James, Miss A. A. Chevallier.
There will be meeting of those inter
ested in the study of social and economic
questions at the law Office of Briden bauch
q Rauch, 2O5 North Main. rooms 3 and Z,
on next Tuesday evening at 7:30. All IN
terested in the subject are invited to be
present and consult in reference to the

Mr.. Henry c. Scott, of st. Louis, presi-
dent of the Wichita Gas, Electric Light
and Power company. who has been in the
CITY some days looking after the business
of the company, left last evening for
home. He expressed himself as quite well
pleased with the company's business here,
and as the future business depended on
the future of the citl he was quite pleased
over the prospects. While the business
had not increased here like it had in some
other years, he could not expect a hop,
skip and jump gait all the time and was
quite willing to go little slower. In the
meantime the company would continue to
improve its plant and line of main and
have one of the best plants in the west.

AN EXPOSITION FOR WICHITA.

Henry burst of Medicine Lodge. one OF
the most enterprising and progressive citi-
zens OF southern Kansas, was at the Wich-
ita immigration meeting and from what
he heard and learned from others inter-
ested in getting people to Kansas, he con-
cludes that one good way to advertise
Barber county is in the board of trade
rooms, at Wichita, which have been turn
ed into an exposition. He thinks the
sugarworks company of Medicine Lodge
should make good display of their pro-
ducts in jars and barrels; that the gypsum
company should send up blocks of gypsum,
and as soon as possible manufactured
samples; Sun City should send up samples
of its marble and samples of corn, oats,
wheat, rye, cotton, ETC., should also be
displayed. The idea is good one, and
the suggestion of permanent exposition
in this city upon the plan proposed by Mr..
burst is also good one. Wichita is the
natural center for more than half
of the state-all OF the southern
half-and collection of the products
of each county carefully made and prop
erly arranged in suitable building in the
city, to be under the direction of the board
of trade, would not only be an attractive
feature for the city but would afford the
counties represented land it could be made
to embrace the state to the very best ad-
vanrage) would be the most effective
means Of advertising them, the small ex-
pense considered, of any that could be de-
vised. AS an advertising auxiliary the
state immigration bureau could use it
with splendid effect.
1t occurs to the writer that the PROPOSE
ton is worthy of the attention and con-
sideration of the board of trade, the immi-
grafton bureau, the counties and all
interested in the subject of advertising the
state in practical way and inducing i'm
migration with view to permanent citi-
zenship and mutual benefits.
