MUSIC AND THE DRAMA.
A Weekly Review of Music, Arts and the
Drams. Prepared Xxpressly for the Eagle.
There is nothing to report in the dramatic
line at the opera house in the past week,
companies having been crowded out, or more
correctly speaking, frightened out by the po
litical attractions that are holding the boards.
They are hard competitors to fight and we
commend thegood judgment that steers clear
of them.
Atthk Fair Tho musical features of the
Catholic fair have already been satisfactorily
commented on and want of space forbids a
summary report.
Oun Musical Growth Some time ago a
young man called at our office and in the
couree of conversation wished to knowjf
Wichita were a desirable place to locate in
tho interest of music. At that time I was
not prepared to answer him from any as
sured knowledge of my own, but having
made uj) my mind from general observa
tion, that Wichita was about the best place
in the country to locate in any line of Busi
ness, I soon made him feel that he had found
the proper place.
My journalistic conscience, curiosity (or
what you will) prompted me to investigate
tlie matter and ascertain if I had not given
the young man a jot too much encourage
ment. Mrs. Kussell was referred to ns being
a musical landmark, and I sought her out,
hoping to get some desired information,
Although I found her surrounded by an
abundance of work, she graciously spared
a portion of her valuable time and gaye me
a few surprising details, one of which was,
that when she came, hero ten years ago tho
number of pianos in the place did not ex
ceed one dozen. We 2nf now by the as
sessor's statistics that there has been a very
creditable increase, musical taste and cnlturc
having improved in the same ratio.
Ueing able to execute and appreciate, tho
"Mollie Darling" and "Birds in the Tree"
class of music, was the average height of
musical attainments at that time; and an
epocli was certainly marked when 3Ir.
ISrocket astonished the town by adding a
Checkering grand to its list of curiosities.
Sovr we are so accustomed to the constant
influx of all kinds of grands, squares and up
rights that we have grown quite blase upon
the subject, and consider them as necessary
us n kitchen table.
In an interview with one of the teachers
of our public schools, I learned that out of
fifteen hundred pupils in the city, not more
than forty or forty-five who are in the high
school, receive anything like technical in
struction in tho rudiments of musie. When
we consider the fact, that perhaps the ma
jority of these pupils will rarely be called
upon to exercise their knowledge of mathe
matics, geography and history; whereas,
scarcely a day passes in which a knowledge
of music does not come into play in family
worship, tho social gathering," at church,
Sabbath school and prayer meetings in fact,
in almost every department of life, it is ben
eficial if not necessary, we can but con
clude that the subject bf musical instruction
should receive more prominence in our pub
lic schools.
"Mr. StclTeo's energies in promoting this
feature of school education cannot be too
highly commended. He proposes through
the combined efforts of himself and pupils,
to add tho luxury of a piano to the school
in the near future. It is a project that will
not fail to command the interest of nil
parents, ns well as every enterprising citizen,
and elicit from them "the assistance it de
sen cs.
There aro many other improvements and
defects in this direction with which I hope
to acquaint mvselt. My researches so far
have not been 'Oery long "or very deep, but I
hope to he prepared to give the young man
when lie calls again (if no ever does) points
that will highly color everything I have al
ready said.

A DREAM OF HEAVEN.
There are sighs unheard; there are tears un
wept; There are lutes unstrung, there are harps
unswept;
There arc griefs unknown, there are
thoughts untold;
There are hearts that boat warm when they
seem but cold;
There are loves unlost when they seem so
dead,
There aro wounds unseen that have often
bled;
For tho soul feels most when in silence
deep,
If lives unheard an the winds in their sleep.
There aro sorrows very dark that o'ercloud
in our life'.-, glad
our way,
And that shade the heart
day;
I There arc joys unfelt, there aro hopes uufed,
i ncre are pledges mished, there are vows
unsaid;
There are flowers dead among the 'pring
leaves,
There are treasures lost among the golden
sheaves;
There arc memories sweet, we love them
well,
Hut the eve grows dim as their currents
well;
There are prayers
we love,
Whilst we linger
aoove;
Yet wo smile to think that our griefs will
ci-ase.
And our hearts rejoice in an endless
Far away above the ethereal blue,
v here each soul is glad and each heart is
true;
We will live in love and her radiant beam,
Will inspire the soul with a heavenly
dream.

TOLL THE BELL.
7 tUtbiitor of tht Kaglr:
The W. C. T. U. decided at their last
weekly meeting to vppoint Monday,
November 3d, a day of fasting and prayer
to hold devotional exercises in all the
churches, and to toll the bell every six min
utes, ns statistics show us the soul of a
drunkard passes from the great army of ine
briates to its final account every six minutes
during the twenty-four hours.
Toll the bell, sadlv toll,
A drunkard's soul
Is passing from earth away.
Bloated with gin.
Stained dark with sin,
In the coffin we m-o him lay.
Once he was fair,
E're rum and despair
Ix-nscdthe brain, and withered tho heart.
A proud father blessed him,
A mother caressed him;
Oh, drink ! What a tyrant thou art.
Toll on drearily.
Mournfully, wearily,
For the drunkards passing away ;
The prayers of a mother,
Of sister or brother.
No more shall avail them for aye.
While ringeth yet tho knell.
Out from the drunkard's hell,
Souls of the lost ones! could ve but return ;
How would your trembling lips,
Tell of the Stygian pits,
A warning to othersUie ruin-fiend to spurn,
Toll, church hells, toll,
A warning note roll,
From vmir brazen throats to-day;
"lint let us watch and pray.
And speed the day.
When then the demon of drink shall lie low
for nve.
Mrs. M. E. Lkase.

business was good. The political chaldron
was at fever heat; knots ol men wcro con
gregated on every corner along Douglas

tho political situation. Candidates were
numerous and appeared to have a
i;reat deal of private business with
Voters, as they could be seen every few mo

other tricks for raking in a dime from the

A galvanized cornice, of handsome de
