arts. Finally, the combined efforts
OF poet and a musician. Chenier and
Sarrette, brought about that the rev.
dictionary convention, on August 3,
1895; or. to use the picturesque calen-
dar of that time, on the 18th day Of
the month Of Thermidor Of the year

Of the Conservative de AIusique" Of

pointed chief director and was given
as assistants five men still famous
in the memories of the art, Mehul,
Gretry, Gossec, the same one who had
directed the old school, Lesueur and
CherubinL one hundred and fifteen
professors made up the faculty. This
may be a hint to those who have been
accustomed to think otherwise, that
destruction was not all there was Of
revolutionary work, for the setting
up OF a school Of music will hardly
be regarded as the one. or even the
specially favored, object Of its con-
structive activity.
Reaction After Napoleon.
The Conservatives worst days
were those which followed the royal
restoration after Napoleon's fall, when
the reactionists, hating all that they
found, played havoc at first with this
institution. changing its name, sup
pressing It's ulIEEltE5s anu A1AAAIAAAe-
bly, reducing its budget. But they
recanted from all these errors, and
seven years later fully restored the
ConserVatoire TO the place Of honor
which il promptly resumed and has
occupied ever since.
Courses Free to Both Sexes
All the courses are free, and pupils
Of all nations, rich or poor with or
without influence, and so far at least
as string instrumental music is con-
cerned, without distinction Of sex. are

pupils by the combined influences OF
their native talent, their application
to their work. and the teaching they
have received; and the winner Of the
first prize, or Grand Prix, is sent to
Rome to continue his labors and
studies at the expense Of the French
government for a period Of four years.
Must Be n Life Work.
It goes without saying that he has
made the pursuit Of his art his life
career long before he has gone this
far, for the exacting nature Of those
iabOrs and studies absolutely shuts
out all other possibilities, and would
certainly not be submitted to for the
attainment Of a mere accomplishment
acquired for the purpose Of enabling
its possessor TO cut a figure in So
ciety.
The opportunity presented to the
people Of FL PasO and the surround
ing country to see and hear a group
OF talented men whose excellence in
the art Of their choice was developed
under such conditions as those which
have been described is an advantage
not to be lightly considered. but
rather worthy Of the highest appre-
citation. such an appreciation as will
not fail 10 manifest itself by the most
popular and enthusiastic attendance
at that concert that Liberty hall ever
saw.

THE public Of FL Paso has already
l been made acquainted with the
personnel and character Of the mu-
steal organization that viii be heard
here at Liberty hall on Wednesday
night, November 81. Therefore some
account Of the French national in
stitution from which this organization
has sprung is timely.
In England and America it is neces-
sary, when you speak Of a conserva-
tory, to make clear what kind Of a
conservatory you mean. No such am
biguity exists in France, where any
reference to the Conservative" is
always understood to apply to the
National School Of Music which forms
4 part OF the total charge Of the de-
partment Of fine arts in the French
cabinet. This school has nine branches
ia France. one in Paris, the Others in
Lille, Nancy. Dion. Lyons, Perpignan,
Toulouse, Nantes and Rennes- But OF
course the one in Paris is the Con-
servatoire which almost everybody
has in mind.
4 Nursery for Opera.
Its beginning goes back to the days
Of Louis XVI, when one Of his min
listers. baron de Breteuil. established
the Royal School Of Song and Decla-
nation, the chief object Of which
was to form a sort Of nursery out OF
which the opera would be able to
perpetuany fill up its "a As The
Opera theater itself antedated the
school by more than 100 years, in
the course Of which It had undergone
IL rsms.- 4 ai-
mon to such institutions anywhere,
due most OF them, no doubt, TO that
temperamental irritability proverbial-
" attributed TO musicians among all
the sensitive members OF the great
artistic family.
ChOirs Were Recruiting Fields
Prior to the establishment of the
School of Music. the religious choirs
Of the great cathedrals which have
been for so many centuries among
the greatest treasures of France
one might say the world-were the
only recruiting fields available to the
profane branch Of the musical art. As
this same art had itself been derived
from the ancient musical declama-
tion Of classic Greece, il was not so
very far removed at first from the
solemn, majestic chants Of the church.
The school was from the start ap-
propriately placed under the direc-
ton Of the most prominent musician
Of the time, Francois Gossec. a Bel
gian by birth, who realized for him
self what has proved true Of so many
others, that every man has two coun-
tries. his native land and France.
School Lives Through Revolutions.
The revolutionary storms that ragged
over the land shortly after the foun-
dation Of the school could not leave
il unscathed, but neither did II alto
gether perish Whatever government
there was always lent a willing ear
TO whoever CHANGED to make himself
the advocate Of so worthy a cause as
the preservation and fostering Of an
art. and Of music among all other
