Song of the Niebelungen.

The entertainment arranged by the alum
nj Of Gonzaga College and given at the Co.
lumbia Theater yesterday afternoon was
success in every respect. The lecture
was by Rev. j. F. x. O'Conor, vice presi
dent of Gonzaga College on the "Song of
the Niebelungen.'' was filled with thrill
ling interest from beginning to end. The
weird narrative Of the great German epic
was rendered doubly attractive by the
splendid illustrations that were given dur
ing the progress Of the lecture and by the
instrumental and vocal selections from the
operas Of Wagner, the themes Of which
were adapted from the Song of the Niebe-
lungen.' The lecturer first told the story
of the Niebelungen which, in its original
form in the German, is contained in an epic
of 1900 lines. Pictures Of Siegfried, Sieg-
mund, Sieglinda, Hagan and Volka. Diet
rich and Hildebrand, who figured prOmi
nently in the story of warefare and marvel
Gus exploits were thrown upon the can
vas. After the story in its original form
was told the lecturer explained the manner
in which Wagner had adopted the poem to
his four operas, die Gotterdammerung,
Die Walkure,' 'Siegfried.'' and "Rhein-
gold Father OConor paid a tribute to
the high qualities exhibited by Wagner
in his operas as a poet musician and a
dramatist. Wagner had introduced into
his orchestra many new instruments with
qualities adapted to the portrayal of the
But while he was pre-eminently above all
others in his power of expressing musical
thoughts of the kind he treats In his operas,
yet before him there were other composers
who did much in evolving the style of
which Wagner became the great master.
He gathered inspiration from the great
epic poem, the "Niebelungen Lied" which
has furnished the most interesting legends
in the realm of storytelling. During the
afternoon the various motives of the opera
were played by Prof. Kubel on the piano.

Federation Of Church Clubs.

Representatives and delegations from the
mems clubs connected with twenty-three
different churches held a well-attended and
Memorial Church last evening. The suu-
ject under discussion was the proposition
to federate all such clubs into a league or
union, to their mutual and individual ad-
vantage. From the remarns made and the
interest displayed it was apparent that the
movement is rapidly gaining in popular
favor as its details become more fully un-
derstood. This is the third preliminary
meeting that has been held Coming as
they do from churches OF. different denomf-
nations and from clubs conducted on widely
divergent plans,s 1t has required consider

ing those who desire to take part in the
federation to appoint delegations or com
mtteeS with power to act in the name of
their clubs. After opportunity has been
given for all the local ciubs to take this
step, announcement will be made of .e
date and place OF the next meeting. at
which time the federation will be organized.
Judge H. B. Aboult0n was continued as
chairman and Mr.. N. L. Collamer as secre-
tary of the temporary committee on or

A Former CORRESPONDENT.

Mr.. Thomas B. Connery of New York has
been guest at Georgetown University this
week. He lectured in CASTOR HALL Wednes-
day night on the subject Sitting on Bay
onets," which dealt with the responsibility
of this government for the execution OF
Macmillan in Mexico. He spoke inter-
estingly upon the exciting times Of that
period and his lecture was abundantly IL
lustrated with stereopticon views. Mr..
Connery was years ago a correspondent
here and was for a brief period editor or
the old National Republican. He was af-
terward editor of the New York Herald for
many years. He has been warmly greeted
during his visit here by those who remem-
ber his excellent work and genial DISPOSE
ton when he and they were much younger.
