STANFORD TO HAVE

Professor Newsom to Be at Head

University
Especial Dispatch 10 The Call

STAMFORD UNIVERSITY, May %
When the undergraduates of Stanford
university return to the university they
will find that a new department has
been added to the curriculum The
members of the faculty have decided to
segregate the department of geology
and mining and to make the two
branches OF study separate under indi-
vidual heads This move means the
institution Of the Stanford school of
mines and placing of Professor New
man, formerly professor in the geol-
ogy and mining department at the head
Of the new department. DR.. j. G.
Branner, formerly head OF the geology
and mining department, will continue
as the head OF the geologists, but will
not have the mining engineers so di-
rectly under his charge.
1t is said that the courses in met
allurgy which have been increased from
time to time until they are of impor-
tance aside from their bearing on other
work, may be placed in separate
department with one of the instructors
who now ranks as assistant or associa-
ate professors at their head with a
full professorship. This has not, how
ever, been announced as yet, though it

ADABERTO WILL BE
THE PRIMA DONNA
Coming Of the Dramatic Soprano
Regarded as Evidence of
Excellence of Cast


In order to make the cast as strong
as possible the management of the
Princess theater wired its eastern rep
resentatives to secure the services of
Ester Adaberto as prima donna of the
grand opera company which will open
at the Princess theater in repertoire
of Italian and French operas June H.
The engagement of the noted soprano
was effected. 1t is certain that she
will appear in the opening performance
of aida" and that she will repeat the
success she achieved when as an un-
known artist she first surprised San
Francisco in December. 1906. At that
time she was one of Lombardi's stars,
and in that particular company she was
the brightest in the constellation.
Signora Adaberto's voice is dramatic
soprano. 1t is high, clear and vibrant
Besides being gifted with a beautiful
voice, the singer is blessed with a
graceful presence and much charm of
personality. She is temperamental and
sings with the feryor that belongs to
the warm Latin temper. AS La Tosea
in the Sardou-Puccini musical drama
she is well remembered and her Mar

and effectiveness.

and perhaps "OtelIo." At least these

coming westward has largely been re-
cruited. The best singers in that or
ganization have been selected, and
other artists, like Adaberto, have been
picked to give the forces strength and
greater artistic merit. The company
carries its own orchestra and a large
chorus and ballet.
Among those in the cast of singers
from whom much is TO be expected is
Giovanni Graviana, who was here at
the TivoIi theater and sang with Tet-
razzini about four years ago. Graviana
has a powerful and resonant bass voice
of the "profundo" type and he is an
actor of great ability. Eleanor Therry.
who is also coming here, is the dram
attic soprano artist of the company.
She is a pupil of Duverney in Paris
and has a European reputation. She
created the leading roles in Fedora"
and "Mephistopheles' when the Puccini
music drama and Boitos opera were
first produced in Marseilles, Bordeaux

not for Incorporation into the con-
sciousness of a race which is far from
kin to the red man. So with negro

As for the popular trash which IS
called American music and which is
PLAYED in the cafes Of Europe, it
changes with every Veering wind of
popular taste. Now it is the waltz
song Of After the Ball then ii is
Down Went McGinty. After that it
is rag time, TWO steps, and the like.
These compositions are nothing but
the crumbs which fall from the tables
OF the cultured composers. 1t is not
likely that these crumbs-reminiscen
of real feast-may ever be assembled
again and pounded into the dough of
a national loaf of art.
NATIONAL INTEREST IN MUSIC
Walter Damrosch and Bispham and
Arens are doing more for the advance
ment of American music than is being
realized by the general public. Already
the American music society. which is
organized under the influence of these
and other enthusiasts, has branches in
Boston. Chicago, Philadelphia and
other large eastern cities. branch
and soon there viii be one in this city.
From such an organization as this
much may be expected.
I should hate to think that the
frivolous music OF the popular com
posers would be regarded as typical.
1t is the result Of platitudinous recol-
lections and bears about the same re-
lationship to the music Of America
that dime novels do 10 its literature.
It may be peculiarly American. but !
hope 1t is not typical Look to the
association Of serious minded native
composers, working in touch with the
institutions and traditions that are ma
tional, to make a school. which, being
American. will combine the best of
all the schools and fuse in one mold
the virtues Of all occidental music.
That viii in time be the typically
American music
If in Germany or France program
of music is given which puFports to be
American. it will contain 'Suwanee
River some rag time melodies, After
the Ball and perhaps Honey, Won't
You Please Come Homer Surely that
is not representative. Such stuff, as /
have said, is but crumbs of music from
the tables of the better composers.
Encourage for the native COM
poser, a market for his product, a
confidence in our future, and a larger
degree of culture, will develop what
we seek-a national idiom in music.
In this connection / would say that
everything which conserves the mu-
sical taste of the masses is to be en-
couraged. Give us bands and orches-
tras. Let US hear the best Of operas
and wake the people up to a realiza-
tion that there is signature which
belongs TO a staff as well as a sigma
ture which is significant on a check"
