There Is much to say on this sub
ject, and ! have no space in which to
lover of music can tolerate the idea
of liberties being taken with the
splendid rythms of Wagner opera
by distorting them to a strange lam
guage? 1t is even unreasonable, be-
cause Wagner was a great Socialist
and an exile from Germany on ac-
count of certain writings against the
government, and for that reason it
was years before Wagner opera
was allowed to be sung or a Wagner
piece of orchestration to be presented
in Germany. France first heard
Lohengrin.
1t was France. Switzerland. and
Hungarian List that made Wagner
possible. The first produced his
music, the second harbored him in his
exile, and the third supported him
while he wrote. Wagner, imself,
wrote to Lizst that he, Wagner, COM
posed his operas for Lizst alone as
no one else would ever hear them.
And Lizst in answer bade him write,
write, and still write and send them
all to him because his writings were
Great and he. Lizst, loved them.

MUNICIPAL RECITALS
RAISE CITY MORALE
Installation of Public Organs Has
Proved Notable Success,
Says Report. :

The municipal organ is a live topic
in the talk of the day. This is nat
ural in view of the increase of music
under city auspices and the power Of
the organ, single-handed, to "hold the
crowd"
Portland, Maine, has a municipal
organ and William C. MacFarlane,
the organist there, is soon going to
Melrose, Mass, where a similar in
strument under municipal ownership
is about to be placed in commission.
In connection with Portland's organ
comes significant report from the
police Of that city, who assert that
the Sunday concerts given with the
aid of this instrument have raised
the morale of the city and decreased
the amount of trouble caused by
those too boisterously inclined.
