Augsburg, Bavaria, has decided to
erect a music hall for concerts and up
to date more than 310,000 marks have
been subscribed by the citizens ' In
commenting thereon the Musical Cour
ier says: "Augsburg has about as many
inhabitants as one New York assembly
district and New ' York has about SO
districts of t:iat kind. ; No New York
city assembly district has a music hall
of Its own, and New York city, .with
all its assembly districts, has only one
concert hall, and our concerts must he
given in theatres when they are not
given in that one concert hall. Augs
burg is ahead of New York city in
the concert hall proposition SO to 1. or
more; the odds are fearfully against us
and we must get out of the ring. Yet
we are awfully musical and have ever
so many prize operas, with a monopoly
of foreign company keeping us out be
sides. There never was a more cheer
ful lot than the New Yorkers, most of
whom Mm allgemelnen' do not even
know where Augsburg Is, if they were
made to confess;."

"The Imposing Cathedral of St. Fran
cis de Sales at Baker has been enriched
by the addition of a very beautiful new
pipe organ which was successfully in
augurated on Tuesday evening' by Fred
erick W. Goodrich, of this city. Tha
following ' account Is taken from the
Morning Democrat of Baker:
"The first recital on the new pipe
organ at St. Francis cathedral was given
last evening by Professor Frederick W.
Goodrich, of Portland, and his appro
priate program was rendered by the
master hand of the artist, in a manner
that thrilled and delighted the large
audience. It would be hard to choose
any one number as worthy of special
mention, as none were of the same class,
a varied program bringing out all the
wonderful combinations otf the .great In
strument. Two of the simpler numbers,
however. Bhowed the beautiful soft toned
effect of the pipes and their sweet
harmony stirred his hearers deeply. The
numbers were 'The Answer,' by Wosten
holme, and 'Nocturne in G,' by Fry
singer. "Preceding the recital, an appropriate
talk on 'Music' was given by Professor
Mullln, which served to put the audi
ence In the proper frame of mind for
what followed. Two choruses, by the
MacDowell club, acompanled by Mrs.
Burke, Berved to strengthen the position
of the organization in the local musical
world as they were well sung, and thor
oughly enjoyed.
"Mrs. Percy Brck and Mrs. Eugene
Moore, who always please their hearers,
were heard in solos, and Mrs. J. F.
Corbett, of La Grande, delighted her
hearers with her beautiful rendition of
Francis' 'Ave Maria.' Charles P. Mur
phy, as usual, sang only too little to
satisfy the audience, but his one num
ber was of a quality that made up for
the lack of quantity."
At the coming complimentary concert
to be given by Rose Coursen-Reed at
the new Heilig theatre, February 29,
the Treble Clef club will give two

Jeannette M. Thurber, founder and
president of the National Conservatory
of Music of America, in New York, in
answering questions pertaining to the
musical education Of young people seek
ing the life of a teacher, as welt as the
more ambitious career of the concert
and operatic world, says you cannot
begin too early to learn.
'At B or e, girls should begin," she
asserts, "for they usually exhibit PU.
tude for musio earlier than do boys. Let
the earnest parent or guardian place his
child In the ears of a capable teaoher.
No teacher can 1 be too . competent, as
the brain In childhood Is tender and
plastic, and ealriest impressions are the
most lasting, even though unconsciously
absorbed. .. .
"The course should not be too strenu
ous st the start, and -for the-aspirant
for vocal honors and for the teacher It
! should be thorough. The teacher need
not execute so brilliantly, either with
the voice or at the keyboard, but must
be : master or mistress of the art of
Interpretation, the art of impartment of
knowledge, which consists not so much
In filling the pupil with bald theoreti
cal facts as quietly and persistently
educing from the student the talent.",:
No age can be set when one may be
assured of success, for the wonder -child,
the precocious .boy or girl, upsets all
preconceived notions on the subject. The
average is between 20 and 30 for instru
ments. Singers usually win honors ear
lier and easier.
The first quality necessary for' a
musical career is, of course, marked
talent a talent that does not hide it-
self -nnder a bushel; the next quality
a moei neeuiui one is irirni m
the face of obstacles. . Without dogged
patience nothing can be attained.
The National Conservatory of Music
In America was founded in 1886, and Is
conducted for the advancement of musi
cal education and not for profit. It
was chartered in 1891 by a special act
of congress.
Miss Felicia Lyne, the young Ameri
can soprano, who was the recipient of
i a. tremendous ovation upon her debut
! In the London Opera house a short time
ago as Gilda in "Rlgoletto." was born
in Kansas City 20 years ago, and is a
niece of .Dr. and Mrs. F. E. Moore of,;
this city. Her father is Dr. 8. T.
Lyne. of Allentown, Pa. . -
Miss Lyne proved a complete sur
prise to London, for she was practically
1 unknown until the moment she stepped
upon the stage as Gilda, and then her
success was so overwhelming that the
prediction has been made that she will
be the Pattl or Melba of the operatic
world. Her debut is reported as hav
ing been most wonderful, and her name
at once was carried all over the world.
MIbs,' Vivian A. Marshall, a mezzo
'soprano, who recently came to Port
1 land from Paris, met the young singer
i and heard her in rehearsals there. She
speaks of her voice- as simply remark
able. In both range and quality, her
highest note being F altislmo. In
coloratura work she Js said to excel
Tetrazzlnl and her middle register Is
considered far superior. Miss Mar-
I shall received a letter during the week
from a friend. Miss Edith Chapin. who
la now studying In Paris, but who heard
! Miss Lyne in Gilda at London. The
j letter states:
"Then of course you have heard of
Felicia Lyne. Her voice Is exquisitely
pure, her acting splendid, and she is so
petite that she just thrills one. Her
debut in 'Rlgoletto' was a Joy. Re
naud and HarrobJ .were both In it and
a support like that was, of course, an
inspiration. She just took London by
storml"
Mrs. Moore says that her niece did
not 'begin "to- study-music- seriously un
til 16 years old, but her mother had
always wished that the girl should bo
come a famous vocalist She is an ac
complished pianist and speaks Italian,
French and German fluently.

LATEST PARIS FAD
(FoMtrtiers-- Press Imm4 Wk.t
Paris, Jan. J0. A curious evolution,
or maybe It would be more correct to
say devolution. Is in progress here. It
Is no less than the forsaking of the
motor car for the horse.
Several reasons are advanced for this
movement but the real one Is doubtless
that automobiles have become so com
mon that to be really smart these days
one must have his coach and pair.
Then as one of the fashionables who
haa Imported a stable of English car
riage hoives remarked the other day:
A drive ip a horse drawn carriage
soothes the nerves. It does not reduce
the fair occupant to anonymity. She
can come out In one of her finest be
longings and suffer from no suffocat
ing smells If slow movement in a file
of similar equipages is requisite. No
bodily mischief is to be feared should
a long drive be undertaken,, no nervous
quivering that almost re-Juces the ex
cursionist to a palsied state. A coach
man will dine along with a-country-Innkeeper
and his servants when he takes
one out far into the country for a
change of air. A mechanician must
dine at the table d'hote, . though the
patron and wife take their meals there.
If he Is told on the road to mend his
pace, he reminds the. patron that he
Is responsible In criminal law for any
Injuries to wayfarers, though, happily

New York, Jan. 20. -"I suppose you
might call me the biggest-hearted man
In New York,"; , boomed big Herman
Kronowlt, 88 years old, of No, 178 Nor
folk street, when he was asked how ha
"Jumps" his heart from left to right
side with Impunity, and performs other
contortions which would tax the Inge-?
nuity even of. that 'other well ..known
cardlacal phenomenon. Professor Cupid.
Kronowlt astounded six physicians-at
the Har Moriah hospital when he failed
to develop any heart action or any pul
sation,. . ', :'
Dr. Herman Horn was so" surprised
that ; he dropped his stethoscope and
gazed open-mouthed at the ruddy
cheeked, block-eyed giant. -
"Why, - that's easy. laughed , Krono-
.wit, and he first stopped the beating
or run heart altogether for half a min
ute' with the- accompanying absence ' of
pulsation.- Then h shifted his ; heart
from one' side to the other and back
agaln. :. ... , , ,.. -,x
"Kronowlt" Is ; a' medical curiosity."
said Dr. Horn. ."He weighs-, over 800
pounds and Is in good health, apparently.
He appears to be able, to stop the beat
ing of his heart for a full 80 seconds..
This he manages by the contraction of
the muscle' of -his diaphragm and by
the expansion of his chest. The steth
oscope was unable t" catch the slightest
heart action." - -,. " . ,
