Paganlnii's Great
Secret Revealed,
Says MacmHlen

The secret of the great Paganini's
technique on the violin is problem
that has puzzled the musical world
ever since the year 1898. when, as a
boy of nine, he made his debut ut
Genoa. His Introduction of the stop
ped harmonic on every tone and half
tone. produced weird effects in the
novelty of his inventions of this ma
ture threw the whole of Europe into
Il paroxysm. OF excitement. Hitherto
no one, either contemporary or a
follower, has been able to fathom the
mystery of Paganini's reats of play
ing.
But at last, so 1t is said, the meth.
DDS of the incompatible genius has
been brought to light by an Ameri-
can. Mr.. Robert E. Walker, Of Pat
terson, N. j.. whose achievement is
youched for by the famous Amerl-
can violinist. Mr.. Francis Macmil-
len, who plays here on Friday night
at the Grand Opera House.
The latter says that Spolr, Ernst,
and Fiotti were often heard to de-
clare Paganini's genius was wholly
different from and far above that of
any other violinist who had ever
come upon the earth. They frequent-
ly heard him. and went so far as to,
ask him to explain tile mysteries Of
his system. He promised them to
reveal certain Of his methods which
enabled him to build up a technique
which so far over Swallowed theirs,
but lie never fulfilled his promise.
The new discovery, which Mr..
Macmillen regards as the Paganint.
system reshised from oblivion, is,
endorsed, he declares. by highly
reputable violinists," and several
express the opinion that Mr.. Walk.
er's work will reyolutionize the mod
ern system Of violin instruction. -
Just how the discovery was accomp-.
lished, Mr.. Walker, who has embodi-
cd his ideas In a book called The
Paganiiti System of Violin Instruc-l
tion, will not clearly explain" He
chooses a somewhat fantastic method
OF exposition, asserting that the
knowledge CT the system" he is
sponsor for came to him through
the medium OF dream,'' Paganini
appeared before him and insisted up
on gratultious exercise OF violin in
struction.
