For Supervision Of Schools.

A petition is In circulation in this
city, and similar petitions are being
signed al over the state, asking the
legislature to make coupty supervision
OF public schools compulsory instead
OF optional, as at present. Tbs is a
needed amendment to our present
school system Under optional super
vision, it has been found that the
counties with large 5ities in them are
about the only ones that elect super
vision. The very counties that need
it most are least likely to have it.
The bill which this petition recon-
mends was drafted in accordance with
the suggestions of the legislative
committee OF the Missouri Stale
Teachers Association. 1t places a
high standard OF qualification upon
the Office of superintendent and makes
it his duty during school term tC
spend the greater part Of his time ir

Lecture.RecltaI.

A second lecture recital was given
at CeHtral College MoDday evening by
Miss f. Marion RalstoD, pianiste,
assisted in violin numbers by Miss
Martha Pitcher, the entire program
being devoted to the composer
SchumaIn
At considerable length Miss Ralston
reviewed the early life, studies aud
environment OF Robert Schumann.
She called attention to poetic
nature and associations that finally
drew him irresistibly into music, ard
into composition in particular after
grievous disappointment In piano
studies. Schumann early 10 his
career manifested rebeIlions spirit
toward the existing cUnven Ionality
that obtained in classical composition,
aud alongsi5e Chopin became the
champion Of RomanticIsm Possessing
nature Of moral and Intellectual
grandeur his struggles we're restless
for the noblect and loftiest objects OF
musical thought. And surely the
contributions to the literature of his
art transcend the highest attainpents
of pianism which might have 3ee5
reached had his !ondest dreams not
been rudely awakened The Romantic
School Of Mrsic disregards the limita.
tions of symetrical form, and insists
upon the expression Of a musical
thought with greater freedom than
The classical period affords And tits
no wonder that Schc mann with a
vigorous inteilecl, vivid imagination
aud the keeneSt seusibilitY TO persons
scenes and vens should have become
a great exponent Of the tTeer stsle.
The musical illustrations were the
following:

(b) Romance, Up "a No. 2
(c) Abend!ed, .Shumann vii

(d) Fantasiestuecke, 90 7J

3. Carnival.
The selections we're appropriated
chosen and interesting because the
show conclusIvelY the poetic tenderc
of the composers mind, aud indicat
a certain prediction for connectin
his music with more or less de6nitel
conceived ideas. All the number
were excelIently- executed and in.er
preted, and the entire program prove
highly instructive and delightful t
