studios. In Pittsburgh fancy that
philanthropy in musical matters is al
sent from the minds Of the citizens in
connection with the music hall because
lt'never became the home of a perms-
rent orchestra, much as such an institu-
tion was desired not only by the
music loving portion Of the city's popu-
lation, but also by the trustees of
Carnegie Institute themselves.
Mr.. Carnegie, I know, would have
been glad to see the Pittsburgh orches-
ira, which once existed, built up to be
one Of the city's ornaments, but he was
stout in determination that it must
be maintained by the public. also
know that the trustees cherished the
wish even more ardently than Mr.. Car
negie, for in the latter years of the
orchestras existence, about q decade
ago, was invited to deliver an address
at the annual founders day exercises,
and at the request of the trustees
made plea to the people to put an
enduring foundation under the organi-
zation, which, like nearly all the SYM
phony orchestras in the country, rested
only on the subscriptions of few
public spirited guarantors.
Though Mr.. Carnegie would not as
sumo a burden like that which
Major Higginson carried long and
gloriously in Boston, he was yet
proud Of the Pittsburgh orchestra.
That l found out on the occa~
sion of visit made by the band to New
Yorka visit for which Mr.. Carnegie
paid the expenses, believe, though he
mover admitted the fact to me. On the
contrary, he took advantage of the fact
that the orchestra was in New York to
enforce upon me the knowledge that he
was not its financial backer in it's home
city. He came down from his box in
the intermission, sat on the arm of my
chair, asked about the merits of the
band, and added: "They get nothing
from me. If Pittsburgh wants an or
chestra the people have got to pay for
it. | don't give them cent"
All the world has had a chance to
hear about the bagpiper who used to 60
skirling through the halls of Skibo
Castle disturbing the morning sleep
of the laird's guests. have even heard
of one visitor who glorifed in the
fact that he, or she, had hurled
shoe after him in resentment
a, his untimely music. Intelligence
has also cropped out of Mr.. Carnegie s
organ breakfasts in New York. But he
was not alone among New York's men
Of wealth in having a private organist.
Mr. Charles M. Schwab indulges in the
same luxury, believe. Neither the
bagpipcr nor the organist is as original
conceit as might have been cult
vsted by the Laird of Skibo. Had he
ncurished the traditions of some Of the
Welshmen who helped him to lay the
foundations of his fortune he would
have hunted up a descendant of the
Druidic bards in the mountains of
Wales and had him chant the splendid
achievements of his early life. l am
sure that with his long white beard,
robe, chaplet and harp he would have

In all that l have read about the late
andrew Carnegie there has been moth
ing about his musical benefactions. The
rasson, no doubt, is because there was
p,tle of record to be recalled or re-
ierred to by his necrologists. Nothing
seems to have been suggested to them
hv the existence Of Carnegie Hall in
New York and the spacious music room
with its organ in the Carnegie Insti-
,u.e at Pittsburgh. In the case Of the
former the persons directly interested
in music may have failed to look upon
I. as a public benefaction, like the
numerous libraries scattered over the
English speaking world, and the hall in
Pittsburgh seems to have been consid-
cred only as an almost negligible fea-
ture Of the great institution Of which
il is part. This is not altogether fair
70 the memory of the great philan-
thropist, but an explanation may be
found in the circumstance that the
neople have been made to feel that they
are not sufficiently detached from busi-
ness enterprises to be considered gifts
to the people.
remember the surprise with
which a musical friend from Gin
c:nnati, after his first visit to Carnegie
Hail.. received my explanation of the
generous sounding inscription spread
across the front Of the building. He
had imagined that, like the great hall
in his own town and its organ estab-
lished by Reuben Springer, one of Gin
middle of the last century, it was a
gift to the city. administered by COM
mites OF public spirited men ccm-
manded to make it serve artistic
purposes only, and was not little
amazed to learn that instead it was the
property of a corporation and that Mr..
Carnegie held it to a strict account
ability for its administration. The
stockholders, indeed, were (and I sup
nose .still are) in fact mere trustees,
for the money which built the hall all
came from Mr.. Carnegie and the stock
which gave them legal status cost
them nothing; but it was Mr.. Car
neges firm resolution that the hall
should pay for itself. This is the ex
planaton of the high rent of which
concert givers have always complained
