AN ORGAN RECITAL.

The organ recital given last Tuesday
evening by Professor Abram Ray Tyler,
of Beloit college, at the First Presby-
terian church in this city was in some
respects a sal ge1aeris event in Wausau's
musical life. For one thing, Professor
Tyler is very good organist probably
the best Jilat has yet appeared before a
Wausau audience,-and there have
been some excellent organ players here
before him. For another thing, the
program was an exposition of the work
of German, French, American and
English composers, and of variety OF
musical forms and styles so that
besides giving the audience exceptional
pleasure as a musical entertainment,
this recital was useful lesson to such
as had ears to hear all that could be
inferred from it.
If the selections chosen for his pro-
gram were as fair presentation of the
national traits as cot I'd be given in such
a brief time land it is to be presumed
they were) the German music seemed
to have distinctively the quality OF
strength, and the French that of grace
and symmetry.
But over and above all of them
lowered the prelude to Wagner's Parsi-
fal, grand, glorious, majestic, and yet
transcendently melodious. 1t was like
an introduction to an entirely new and
most wonderful musical world. 1t
alone was worth going miles and miles
to hear played as Prof. Tyler played
it.
As to the American music it is per
haps as well TO say nothing. Ameri-
cans are won't to say, when accused OF
musical shortcomings, Wait until we
begin, and we'll show you" But, as
LOngfellow says, Art is long" 1t re-
quires more patience than is found in
this new country, bristling with oppor
tunities to chase the dollar. We must
enter upon anew plane in order to be-
gin. We must be horn again and mel
lowed by age 1t is not at all "A strange
fact that we are tyres in the arts. On
the contrary, it is the only thing to he
expected. for we have made very little
effort in that direction. We have had
too many forests to fell and deserts TO
reclaim; too many pathways To build
through the wilderness. Orr time will
come surely, but not so very soon. The
best things never come quickly.
Musical Wansau is thankful to pro-
fesSor Tyler for his recital But Wan
sau WAS able to- give the professor a
musical treat, such as it is not often the
happiness of men to hear. in the violin
playing of Jacob Reuter-, who was there
la assist i'm the recital. A wonderful
man is Reuter-, wizard of the violin
who has very few equals anywhere.
Among musical instruments the pipe
organ is the king of harmony, and the
violin the king of melody. Both were
under the hands of masters last Tues
day evening, in Wansau.

SPLENDID ENTERTAIN lent.

Frederick Warde and Kathryn Kid
der, at the opera house last evening, in
Stanislaus STANCES new play, "Salamm-
bo," was, perhaps, equal to any dra-
matte entertainment ever given in our
city. This could hardly be otherwise
with play founded upon Flaubert' s
Salammbo which is conceded 10 be one
of the greatest masterpieces of fiction
that has been produced by the literary
genius of France in century, also
with such famous artists as named
above to take the parts of "Matho," the
barbarian chief of the Libyan Mercen-
aries, and "Salammbo," daughter of
Hamilcar. The entire east was com
posed of artists of ability, and the
scenic effects aud gorgeous costumes
were wonderful to behold. The play is
supposed TO date back three hundred
wears before the dawn of the Christian
era. The PILoT has not the space fo
give the play in detail, suffice it 10 say
that those who were not in attendance
missed an event of great dramatic
merit

The cripple beggar arrested by the
police week ago for being drunk and
using obscene and abusive language,
was liberated from the county Jail
Thursday morning. He again ac-
cumulated sufficient money by beg
cling to acquire good load of
"booze" and bumped into Officer
Mcdonald. When placed under arrest
by Mr.. Mcdonald he began to abuse
the officer and called him OIL the foul
names in the lexicon of a blasphemer,
in the presence of ladies' passing by at
the time The officer knocked him
down, pummeled him, dragged him
through the mud and made a sorry
looking bum" of him, but succeeded
in stopping the wagging of his foul
tongue. He spent TIE night in jail and
next morning was driven out of town
One of the greatest mistakes people
make is encouraging beggars and
ramps by giving them aid 1t is a
misfortune to be cripple but there is
no cripple travelling around from town
to town, but who could not earn his
living ii he were possessed of good
intentions. Ninety-nine out of a
hundred are unworthy of aid and be-
long to the criminal class, as does the
fellow mentioned above.
