GRIP VAN TWINKLE,

Some 60 orphans from the Orphans Home and several hundred children from the public schools attecded the matinee at the Kempner yesterday afternoon to see Thomas Jefferson play Rip Van Winkle.' T:e orphans were there as the guests of Mr. Jef- ferson ':nd Manager Mayer and the school children were there at reduced prices of admission. Mr. Jaifess 3l. said to the Gazette that he wou i rather play Rip to children than grownnups because the youngsters were so appreciative, wh l8 the grown-ups had all seen the play be- fore S frequently that it was n old sto.y. The enthusiasm of the children was all MT. Jefferson c2uld have an ticipated. His Rip is a prais worthy impersonation and his support was excellent. The play was repeated la:t night.-Little Rock Gazette.

"THE THIRD DEGREE"

When Charles Klein wrote "Thr Lion and the Mouse," he delved into great problem, which he solved in a splendid dramatic way, holding ts.. breathless interest of his audience throughout and making of the play gigantic success. Since it's produc- tion by Henry B. Harris, MT. Klein constantly sought T fitting successor equally as convincing, and his inabil. fly to do so, coupled with his year or so Of inactivity, led to the belief that The Lion and the Mouse would re- main his masterpiece, but his later play, The Third Degree by it's in- stantaneous popularity and the amount of publicity it received through it's attacking vital subject, proves that his quest was not in vain.
 As the title implies, the play is founded on the brutal police system of inquisitorial investigation, some thing we hear of in a mysterious, in-
 
 ever knew anything, at least first hand. The drama deals with human emotions and the attitude of the pub lie police toward suspected criul- ihal, and while it treats honestly of this theme, it does not reek with crime and criminals, as the title would lead one to believe Withal it tells a powerful story, human, clean and real, and is a fitting companion to it's predecessor, "The Lion and the Mousse

Fisk Jubilee Singers
Noted Negro Musicians.

COMPOSED of negroes. The Fisk Jubilee
Singers are section of this society,
which includes in its repertoire every
thing from plantation melodies and negro
revival songs up TO the masses and ora
torios of the masters. The first American
production of Hiawatha, the masterpiece
of the negro composer, Samuel Taylor
Coleridke, was given by this society. The
jubilee singers travelled all over the world
singing negro melodies and collecting
money to build the great Jubilee Hall,
which is one of the main buildings OF the
university. When Prince Henry of Prus-
STA was d lad at Potsdam he heard these
singers. When he toured this country
several years ago he expressly asked 10
hear them again. and his train was taken
by Nashville and the negro choir was
disposed on fiat cars in the union station
to serenade the prince during the brief
reception on the rear Platform OF his
train.
The great increase in choral singing
manifested in all parts of the country
has, however, it's chief inspiration in the
work of the universal German singing
societies. The local maennerchor Is GER
tain to be the nucleus around which the
general music festival is built up, and
despite their separate organization and
the comparative isolation OF their cub
houses the German-American singers al
ways are ready and willing to cooperate
with others in advancing the general nu-
sical interest. Of the community

borg sing Handlers Messiah Originated
by a Swedish minister of Bethany Swed-
ish Lutheran Church. who first heard the
great oratorio in London, the annual
Messiah" week has grown from local
church affair into a national musical
event. At first only the local singers
participated, but now the soloists are
singers Of international reputation. but
the chorus is made up of 600 butchers,
bakers and candlestick makers of Linds-
borg. For ten years this chorus was
directed by the talented Samuel Thorsten-
berg. now of Jamestown, N Y. As the
Swedish preacher was its original genius,
so was Thorstenberg the genius OF its
great success.

can life has yielded its opposition to
music. but not to Bacchus. Theodore
Thomas agreed to organize the first May
festival in Cincinnati only upon condi-
ton that the convivial features of the
saengerfest be excluded. The precedent
then set has been rigidly observed, and
this fact perhaps has helped to keep up
the separate organizations of the German
singers.
The inspiration of practically all other
choral societies in the United States,
aside from the German clubs, has been
religious. Sometimes, as in the case of
Worcester, this origin is remote but
more often it is immediate. Next to the
national saenSerfest, the largest body of
singers that meets annually in the United
States is the chorus of the annual con-
ference of the German Baptist Church,
commonly called Dunkards While the
about 100000, the attendance at the an
nual conference is frequently 10000. The
Dunkards are German Puritans, and they
continue their opposition to Instrumental
music in churches. but they have pro-
vided the alternative of trained choral
singing. The annual chorus of several
thousand voices is directed by Prof.
George Il. Holsinger of Bridgewater Col
lege.
Another religious chorus. also German
in origin, but purely local in extent, is
the Bach choir OF Bethlehem. Pa. This
town was founded by the Moravians. and
at the very first the Moravian leaders
established a Collegium Museum. on the
foundation of which has been reared a
remarkable musical superstructure. This
chcir of about a hundred voices was the
first in America to produce complete the
stupendous Bach mass in b minor. an
achievement Of which Bethlehem Is par
donably proud. The choir Is more than
a century old.
