AMERICAN COMPOSERS
HORATIO w. PARKER.

"HoRA NovIssIMA," one Of the
IL featured compositions to be
presented in Washington during Mu-
sic week, is the master work OF the
great American composer, Horatio
William Parker, who died as recently
as December Is, 1919. 1t is "Hora
Novissima" that is generally acknowl-
edged as lifting him above golden
mediocrity," as one critic puts 1t.
w. J. Henderson, a leading New York
critic, has said of this work, "As a
whole. the composition may be set
down as one of the finest achieve
ments of the present day"

with Stephen A. Emery. John Orth
and G.. w. Chadwick. He was only
eighteen years old when he went to
Europe and entered the Royal Con-

he particularly interested Rhein-
berger. He graduated from the con-
seryatoire in 1885 and, after three
wears of study in Europe, returned
to the United States. In 1892 he
received an honorary A. NJ. from Yale,
and in 1902 was given the Doctor of
Music degree from Cambridge Uni

WHEN Miss Carmela Ponselle
makes her bow before her audience
on Monday afternoon, June 4, at the
Beiasco Theater, there will be at least
two very happy people present. one Miss
Ponselle herself and the other Mrs.
Perry Miller, who six or eight years
ago predicted just such a brilliant
future as this for both Carmela and
her now famous sister, Rosa.
''It was at a matinee at Keith's when
first heard the two unknown Italian
girls sing said Mrs: Miller. From
the first note to the last of their very
small part of the performance I was
all attention. I knew only that their
voices satisfied me entirely. and twas
not until that night, when I should
have been asleep. that 1 realized both
of these girls had that wonderful
something in their voices too seldom
heard, that grips and holds and comes
back to US again and again, almost
as a sublime message.
THE very next day l invited a
party of friends to go with me to
hear them sing and, through the kind
ness of Mr.. Roland Robbins, after
their act I was taken back stage to
their dressing room. There I met and
talked to Carmela, who seemed al
most overcome that a stranger should
take any interest in them. Rosa.

"Hora Novissima," are est. Christie

The latter was also given, under the
composers direction, at the Hereford
festival in England, in 1900.
Mr.. Parker has an imposing list of
compositions. both religious and
secular. "Elegie" Is generally con-
sidered to be among his best shorter
compositions. Two Of his most popu-
lar overutures are "Regulus'' and
Count Robert of Paris" He won
prizes of $4,000 each for two operas.
The first, Mona" won the Metropoli-
tan Opera prize in April, 1911; the
other, "Fairyland." won the National
Federation of Women's Clubs prize
for the best American opera in Octo-
ber 1914. His piano compositions are
not so numerous as his sacred music,
and are rather suggestive of Schu-
mann's works. Two other prizes won
by Mr.. Parker were the National
Conservatory prize for a oantata in
1898. and the McCagg prize for a
capella chorus in 1898. Among his
songs that are most popular, aside
from the religious themes. were

MUSIC IN THE CHURCHES

% ELIGION and music are funda-
mentally related. In every civil
ized country and among all cannibals
and other uncivilized groups music is
used, and always has been used, pri-
marily in connection with religious
observances. Religion has always
, provided one of the chief inspirations
for great composers. Therefore, it is
doubly fitting that it is the churches
of Washington which let loose the first
blasts of melody to welcome in the
Music week of the national capital

Monuments of Old New York.
(New York Post. l

Within a month New York has seen it's oldest and most famous restaurant and it's oldest news paper disappear into the wallet in which Time places aims for Oblivion. Delmonico's quite a century old, while the Globe had celebrated 125th year Very few newspapers in the Old World could claim longer career than the journal which Noah Webster founded. In London, for example. only the Morning Post and Times go back further:
 in Paris only the Journal des Dabats. On the other hand, Europe has many restaurants of fame which date back, like the Cheshire Cheese many decades before the foundation of Delmonieo's. Both the Globe and Delmonico's made important contributions to American civilization. But while nobody would underrate the service done by the restaurant which made liner art of cooking and hospitality nobody would compare it with the service done by the newspaper which has just disappeared. To show several hundred guests day how admirably Fiet Sole Delmonico, Cotelotes dAgneau Perigourdine and Sorbet an Maraschino may be served is a less noble function than to furnish hundred thou sand readers with accurate instruction and enlight- eheu polnlon Then why has the passing of Del mcnicos called forth the regret from those who love cid New York institutions?
 Tart or the reason, of course, lies in the fact lhat people always think of newspaper as a con temporary. It is to the Globes credit that people regret It as an institution of today, not as a monu- mont or times past In part the reason lies in the uniqueness of Delmonico's. After all we do have half dozen Manhattan newspapers of respectahle antiquity, whereas Delmonico's was the only Amar lcah restaurant that famous and fas shonable in stage coach days.

HOPE IN PULP AND PAPER
 DEVELOPMENT.

It is conceded that the material development oi Alaska depends upon getting more people Tn the Ter ritory and it must be admitted that people VIII not come to Alaeka in the that caused the rapid growth of the agricultural states in their earlier days The difference in the conditions is so obvious that comment is unnecessary Population in Alaska must follow the development of industries-minine' fahing pulp and paper manufacturing, lumberlng, fox raising etc.
 The hope for large population gains in the near future lies in the promise of pulp and paper development in this section of the Territory. It is ostimged that Southeastern Aaskas forests can be made td produce in perpetuity 100000 to 15OO,oOo tonSess lfstfr per annum That would mean the possiMs tmbloyment of from So,ooo to 45,OOO people in thafffndustry alone and addition of several times that number to the total population. The development of the pulp and papef business of South eastern Alaska would create market for Alaska producers of agricultural and other products, and thus continue additions 10 the population.
 If the Government do anything toward hast ening the doyeopmnet of the pulp and industry Alaska it is evident that it will help the situation immensely by doing it. And it can hasten it. It give long contracts for the fale Of timber at stipulated price-that is, it can eliminate the fge-year reyauation in the tracts that offered It may be said that this would that in the later years of the life of conlIactv the purchaser would be getting timber for much less than it's market value. Probably that is true. That is of the attractions that would make 1t easier to get capital for the development of the industry, and the Governments profits would through the development It would profit through the increased market that development would make for the products of the State It would profit through increased coastwse traffic. It would profit throufh the ncrease in the income and other taxes that would flow into the Federal treasury
 Unused resources of value to the National Government to the people of the country. The countrys gain from the reasources always comes through their development.

MAY THE INVESTIGATION PROVE

It is very much to be desired that the investga- tion of the Alaska fisheries by Senator Jones' Con- gIessman Hadloy and United States Fish Commissioner O'Malley may result in the presentation of program to Congress that will prove acceptable. The day that have the that the fisheries industry of ths Territory is being conducted on basis that will insure its permanency will mark epoch in Alaskan development. The resulting of security will go long way toward creating satisfactory confidence in the future of the country and dispeng sort of rest lessness that will not down when fish is uppermost in the mind.
 In .spite of all the criticism of the Presidential proclamaons creating fisheries reserves the establish ment of the fishing zones The Empire believes that unless Congfess meets the situation with satisfactory legislation the policy adopted by Secretary Hoover 1n tho Boring Sea and Cook Inlet regions and approved by President Harding when he issued the proclama- tions should be extended The need for action is pressing and the time to act is now
