Richard Pockrich, ths Versatile Genius Who Originated Them, Once Used Their Melody to Charm Away the Bailiffs Who Had Arrested Him. Richard Pockrich. an Irishman who lived In the eighteenth century, was a true genius, a dreamer and an In ventor, lie proposed metal ships, pre dicted flying machines, advocated bog drainage and vine planting in the Em' erald Isle. Invented an Instrument for transfusing blood and waa for some years a brewer in Dublin. It was In the domain of art that he achieved bis one real triumph, the one by which be Is known in contemporary musical history, by which he became known to general European civilization during his lifetime und by which bis name will long survive. He Invented the musical glasses. These can be heard today in vaudeville bouses all over the world and will probubly sur vive as long as the musical art Itself. Most of our readers have beard them. They are simply a set of tumbler or goblet like glasses selected for tonal quality to carry out a musical scale. Pockrich seems to have been the first man to be struck by the musical tons In glass, and so be thought the thing out and produced a scale on which be could play any melody. lie exhibited bis discovery In Dublin and Anally took it to England about the year 1700, where It became the sen sation of the hour. Nothing was talk ed of but the marvelous, simple, new musical Instrument. It seemed to the ears of the Jaded Londoners that the heavenly art in all its elemental beauty had returned to earth. Far from sneer ing at so very simple an Idea for mak ing melody, the cognoscenti of London went into raptures over the musical glasses. Gluck, the great composer, who was In London, did not disdain to play bis Immortal ulrs upon them. "The opera flourishes more than in any recent year." wrote Horace Wal pole to a friend. "The composer Is Gluck. a German. He is to have a benefit, at which he Is to play a set of drinking glasses which he modu lates with water. I think I have heard you speuk of some such thing." Not only did Gluck perform upon Pockrlch's new instrument, but Bee thoven, Mozart and other great mu sicians in later years actually com posed music for it Goldsmith refers to It In "The Vicar of Wakefield." Not long after the Inventor visited London, and Benjamin Franklin speaks of him in a tetter to a friend thus: "You have doubtless beard the sweet tone that Is drawn from drinking glass by passing a wet finger round Its brim. One Mr. Pockrich, a gentleman from Ireland, was the first who thought of playing tunes formed of such tones. He collected a number of glasses of different sizes, fixed tbem near each other on a table and tuned them by putting Into them water, more or less as each note required. The tones were brought out by passing bis fingers round the brlri." There Is a story of rorkrich, who was Disking occasional tours to Eng land after the Invention of the musical glasses, that Illustrates the surprising effect of his own performance on them. It Is told by his friend Ilrockhlll New burgh, a gentleman of wealth and po sition, who lived In Dublin at the time: "Mr. Pockrich In his brewery near Islandbrldge. happening to he one day seized by bailiffs, thus addressed them: " 'Gentlemen, I am your prisoner, but before I do mrelf the honor to attend you give me Teave as an' humble" per former in muslck to entertain you with a tune.' " 'Sir,' exclaimed one of the bailiffs, 'we came here to execute our warrant, not to "hear tunes." " 'Gentlemen,' says the captain, 'I submit to your authority, but In the Interim while you are only taking a dram here. Jack (calling to his serv ant), bring a bottle of the Rosa Soils I lately distilled I say, gentlemen, be fore you take a dram I shall dispatch my tune.' "In the meanwhile he flourishes a prelude on the glasses and afterward displays his skill through all the pleas ing turns and variations of 'The Black Joke." The mousters, charmed with the magic of his sounds, for some time stand and gaze. At length, recovering from their trance, they thus accost the captain. "'Sir, upon yonr parole of honor to keep the secret we give you your lib erty. 'Tls well playing upon glasses Is not more common; If It were I be lieve our trade would find little em ployment. " Another musical Instrument that Pockrich developed as no man had ever dreamed of before was the drum, ne had dreamed of harmony even In Ihe drum. He planned an orchestra of drums only. There were to be twenty of them, varying in size and tone from the smallest trebles to the busses, to be played by one person standing with the drums arranged about him in a circle. Pockrich never succeeded In producing true melody from a concert of drums. The musical glasses were the direct cause of Pockrlch's death. It was while he was upon one of his musical tours In England In the year 1750 that the hotel In London In which he was sleeping caught fire and he was burn ed to death. -Joseph Lewis French In New York Post.
