Peters Hard- Ware Company. The arid, everybody trttiy seen the tickets for their ftrmlcd a fe-w days ago, hearij the Presbyterian pipe 'dedicate Alast i light, in a recital by WiMtam M. Jenkins, organist of the Second Presbyterian church of Lpjyis.

Pipe organs are not so in Emporia that the coming of a new one dues not cause talk, and the peoiil.c were anxious to see what the new addition was like, More than Ural, heard that it was "lubuUu; pncumaiic," they wanted to see if il showed it. Tljcre is more music in a pipe organ than in any other instrunlent played by one person. An orchestra can make prettier music, but it takes the skill of a score two of men to do it. A good organ and a skilled organist is a pair that can't be beat, and that; was the hand the audience drew last night. Mr.

Jenkins is said to bi; the best organist in St, Louis and the people who heard him last night will not the press reports. Mr. Jenkins acted as if he played the pipe organ often, and knew where to find the different stops and buttons to jnb anil yank. The bench was long enough for him, and at no time was there any danger of him falling off as is sonic- times the case when an organist makes a slide for a far pedal. In fact, Mr.

Jenkins could have used an ordinary stool, for had the tails of his evening coat been nailed to the bench where they hung over, the concert would have proceeded just the same. Some organists ought to be built like devil fishes, with a hundred arms anil legs, they put their four extremities througl so many motions, bin not so with Mr. Jenkins, lie selected a program which out the different parts qualities of. the new organ. Many uf them were familiar to that part oC the who could not be classed as critics.

There was Handel's "Largo." the ''Triumphal March." from Sullivan's "Lost Chord." the "llal- luujah Chorus" from the "Messiah. 1 and' by request Mr. Jenkins played "The Pilgrims' Chorus," from Tann- "Prayer," b3" Leo Wheat was especially good, and was applauded more than any of the other numbers, but in view of the rest of the applaqsc, it may have been the composer's name that caught the audience. The oilier selections were "Posiludc in E. M.

Read; "Caprice," Bolting; "Marche Solenclle," Mailly: "Air Dtt 1 Uoeckel; "Peace At Remiche; "Berceuse," E. M. Read; "La Cinquantiue." Gabriel-Marie; "An Mcer," Schubert; "Romance," W. M. Richmond.

Two numbers were sung by the Lyric quartet, and both were encored the quartet responding to the iirst encore. The program numbers were "Progs' Singing School," liarllett, and a new arrangement of "Sweet ami Low." by Hawley. The quartet is always popular with Emporia audiences, not because its members arc local talent, but because they can sing. The new organ is a instrument, both in tone and appearance Anyone who can tell the difference between a locomotive whistle and the of a pretty girl can tell the organ lias a sweet tone. The musicians say that it is an excellent instrument, and that it i.s particularly good in swells.

The organ fills the space left for it when the church How would you like to select your own cloth and have Ed. V.

The arrangement of the pipes is complicated enough to furnish of amusement in counting the different clusters to see if there arc as many on one side as on file other. Kmporia audiences sometimes do funny things. Analyze them, and they are made up of well-bred people, who know the manners and niceties of good society; yet gather these individuals of good manners together, and they form a unit which will break- most any rule of etiquette. The applause given all of Mr.

Jenkins's selections sounded like a drizzle on a shingle roof, while that -which greet cd both selections of the Lyric quartet sounded like a downpour on a tin roof. Once or. twice they clapped a little longer than usual when an organ piece pleased more than the others, but not once could the applause be taken for an encore by any one with a degree of modesty. Both times the qnarlei sang there was no question about the encore. And through the storms of applause, sat Mr.

Jenkins, the solojst, without a mirror on the organ in which he could have, made faces at the audience had he wished do so. It was the way the people had of showing their appreciation of 1.1,01110 people, but. it was bad taste. They enjoyed the organ playing just as much as the singing, but the didn't know it. The program was king and did not call for many encores, hut partiality should not have been shown, especially at the expense of the visitor.

No program is so long hut that an encore or two encourages the performer, even if he pretends otherwise. David A. Hunter. I A company of the friends am. of-David A.
