Rhyme and Music.
.Bixby of the Lincoln Journal has
immOrtaliZed some of our local musi-
clans in one Of his comic poems, which
We reproduce, along with his introduc-
tory statement of facts:
ION August "a, 25 and Is the saenger-
fest of the Nebraska Saengerbund will
be in session at Columbus, and the at
tendance promises to he very large. OF
active singers there will be from Omaha
IS, Lincoln Is, Seward 16, Grand Island
20, Madison II, Stanton Is and Colum-
bus 20, making a grand chorus of 179
voices, besides bands from both Lincoln
and Omaha. The Germans are music
al people. When they feel good they
sing. and when sorrowful they sing
louder and longer than ever. The saen-
gerfest at Columbus will be a happy
event, and those who stay away will
have something to feel sorry for as long
as they live"
I'm going to the saengerfest
And take the folks along
l 60 because l think it hest
And take delight in song.
They may not let me lift my voice
In melancholy wall;
But offer me the same old choice
Keep still or go to jail
used to hear Gus Falbaum sing,
II thrilled my weary soul
And turned my wintry days to spring,
For he and Emil POhl
Had voices that the dead might wake
The silent streets among
And speedily their graves fOrsake
To hear the songs they sung.
Gus Schroeder, AS he used to was
(The mem'ry is not dim -
1t always made me blue because
could not sing like him.
And then John Stauffer-bless his heart
dotted some on him
His voice would fit most any part
And fill it to the brim.
And shall he there rest assured
And mingle with the horde,
IL proper means can be secured
To liquidate my board"
