AMATEUR MUSICIANS
Three of the Clubs of this
City. .
Their Features, Personnel and
Objects.
An Interesting Account Of ihe S. M.,
Apollo and Ar Ar Clubs.
The Oreanlsatlon of the Various Asso
ciations—Their Offlcers and Mem
bers—A Variety of Mnslcal
Amateurs.
Among all the musical organizations
in. California there is none of more wide
spread repute than the S. M. club of this
city, to which it may be truthfully said
belongs the credit of doing more for the
advancement of the divine art than any
of the other societies.
The club was organized three years
ago, its purpose being the study of the
masters, and from its motto was taken
the title "8. M." Its membership is
composed of both professional and ama
teur vocalists and instrumentalists, and
is the only club in this city in which
both affiliate.
The meetings of this admirable or
ganization are held on the first and third
Monday evenings of each month, and at
each meeting the works of one composer
are taken up and studied.
Under the rules of the club each mem
ber is obligated to serve, when called
upon, on committees whose duty it is to
prepare tbe programme for any desig
nated evening. The works of a certain
composer being selected, the committee
is required to make a thorough study of
the styles of composition and to arrange
for the rendition of solos, both vocul
and instrumental, and also concerted
numbers by the composer under con
sideration. A paper is also prepared
giving the life and works of the com
poser.
Such an organization cannot fail to be
of incalculable benefit to its members
and to those who are so fortunate as to
be invited to one of its evenings.
The club has made great progress in
the study of the works of the masters,
and has also devoted evenings to some
of the foremost American composers,
among whom may be named Foote,
Buck and Schlessinger.
Meetings will be resumed on Monday
evening, October 6th, when the club
will be entertained by Mr. and Mrs. J.
J. Schallert, at their home on Eleventh
street. The great composer, Bach, will
be discussed and the members are look
ing forward to the resumption of the
meetings with genuine delight. Han
del's works \.ill occupy the club's at
tention at the second meeting, of which
Mr. and Mrs. Schallert are also in
charge. At later meetings the Ameri
can composers, McDowell, Cbadwick, J.
K. Paine and J. D. C. Parker will be
taken up.
A list of the members of this club
could not be obtained in time for inser
tion in this article, but among the mem-,
bers may be named: Mrß. Jirah D.*
Cole, who is president of the club'; Mrs.
J. D. Hooker, secretary; Miss Catherine
Kimball, Mrs. Dr. Dorothea Lummis,
Dr. Jauch, Dr. E. C. T3uell, Miss Carrie
Conger, Miss Wills, Miss Fanny Lock
hart, Mr. J, A. Osgood, Mr. and Mrs. J.
J. Schallert, Mr. and Mrs. Charles J.
Ellis, Mr. C. C. Byram, Miss Augustine
Berger, Mr. William Piutti, Mies Nora
Large and Mrs. J. B. Ogilvie.
The Apollo club, the latest aspirant
for musical honors, is a flourishing
organization which has its first anni
versary to celebrate. Though organized
but a short time, the club hue done
some fine work and has won for itself
many staunch friends and supporters.
Like the famous Chicago club of the
same name, the Apollo is a mixed chorus
and the only one ever organized here,
unless the old Philharmonic, which ex*
isted for a short time only is taken into
the category of the musical organizations
of this oity.
The formation of the club was brought
about in much the same way as the
organization of the Ellis club, an ac
count of which was given last week.
Early in tbe winter a quartette was
formed which was tbe nucleus of a male
chorus of sixteen which regularly organ
ized in the latter part of January and
chose Kobt. L. Paulsen as conductor.
Rehearsals were held twice each week
at the studio of Prof. Kent in the Zahn
block, and before many weeks had
passed it was decided to give a subscrip
tion concert in conjunction with the St.
Cecilia, a club composed of female
voices. The St. Cecilia went to pieces,
however, and a woman's chorus of six
teen voices was organized and combined
with the male chorus.
The first concert was given at the Los
Angeles theater, April 3d, the club hav
ing the assistance of Mr. Seamans,
tenor, and Miss Sargent, soprano. The
house was crowded and the club scored
an instantaneous success. On June
30th the second waR given to a
house crowded from pit' to dome. On
this occasion the club was assisted by
Miss Emma Thursby and Mr. Louis
Heine, violoncellist.
At both concerts the club has shown
results that can only be accomplished
by hard study, and the outlook for the
future success of the organization is
very bright indeed, The next concert
will be given in October.
Following is a list of the members of
tbe club: Misses Stella Kendall, El
eanor M. Joy, Anna Smith, Nettie
Palmer, Louie Ward, Lizzie Moore,
Soflat Dexter, Kittie Loomis, Minnie
Baker, Fidelia Anderson, Grace Hutch

TUB "AB AR" CLUB
waa organized in June of this year, and
is composed of a number of ladies whose
object is to spend one morning in each
week in studying works of favorite com
posers.
The club is entirely unlike any of our
other musical societies, its musical work
extending beyond it* regular meetings,
to which no one not a member is ad
mitted. It proposes to gtv#no concerts
or public performances of any kind, and
is as much a social aa a musical body.
The meetings are held at the homes of
THE LOS ANGELES HERALD: SUNDAY MORNING, AUGUST 30, 1891.
the larious members on Thursday morn
ings. Two hours are spent in rehears
ing, and at 12 o'clock a luncheon ia set
by the hostess. The members aie en
thusiastic and declare the meetings just
too delightful for anything.
Each member of this select club wears
a ring bearing the mystic title "Ar Ar,"
the significance of which has been pon
dered over greatly by tbe uninitiated.
The membership of the club is made
up of the following ladies:
Misses Knecht, Locknart, Dupuy, Bry

FINANCE AND TRADE.
EXCHANGE REVIEW.
Mew York, Au.rust 29.—The stock market
today was extremely active, the transactions
for two hours of business being the largest seen
for that time in more than a year, except during
the November panic of last year. At the last
the market displayed pronounced strength, and
notwithstanding that realizations ln advances
of the week were unusually large, the demand
was such that prices halted only for a short
time, and then resumed their upward move
ment all along the line. At the close the
market was very active and decidedly strong at
highest prices for the day and week.
Government bonds steady.

San Francisco Market Review.
Ban Fbancisco, August 29.—The wheat mar
ket oeened less active and prices weaker.-in
sympathy with the decline in eastern and En
glish markets. Barley dull and weak, with
tendency to still lower values. Oats very dull
and prices lower. Corn dull and weak. Bran
and middlings steady and nnchanged. No
change in other millstuffs.
The vegetable market is ln tolerably fair
condition, but is overstocked with several vari
eties. There is « perfect glut of corn and toma
toes, and summer squashes and cucumbers are
as dull and slow of sale as they have been for
the greater portion of the season, Peppers are
plentiful and cheap. Prices are steady else
where.
Summer fruits are doing better and the re
ceipts are not bo heavy. Good Bartlett pears
bring h gh prices, and canners are cleaning up
loose stock. Melons are plentiful again, and
prices lower. Grapes as a rule arrive in good
condition, and prices are well maintained.
The dairy produce market is firm. Fancy
butter scarce and price high, with correspond
ing depression ln interior grades. Choice eggs
in good demand and firm.

Headache.
We are often asked for a cure for head
ache, A certain wise physician classes
headaches among the ailments which
have baffled his profession. At a medi
cal meeting a member said: "Did any of
you ever cure a headache? I never did."
Several doctors having mentioned their
treatment, he replied: "Oh, you only re
lieved it I can do that But have you
ever cured it?"
No one could answer yes. The shops
contain nostrums enough, but did any
one ever And himself more than tem
porarily relieved by them?
Nature, unaided, sometimes effects a
permanent cure by the changes which
the system undergoes in the process of
time. Persons who have been subject to
headache are often more or less fully re
lieved after about the age of fifty. This
is perhaps a resnlt of the shrinkage of
the brain and the hardening of the
tissues, which begins at about that period.
Changes in one's condition or habits, or
in climate, may sometimes effect aajure
by removing the disturbing cause.—

A Patent Horseshoe.
A patent covers a horseshoe which pos
sesses many advantages. On its under
surface is stamped a pattern which gives
a number of points for the securing of a
better grip on the pavement, and this,
where wooden pavements are used, is an
important consideration. The shoe is
about half the weight of an ordinary
shoe, being two and a half pounds the set
of four; it takes less time and less money
to fix, has only four nails, as against the
usual seven. Being a three-quarter shoe,
it leaves the frogs and heels on the ground
—which prevents concussion to the foot
and leg, contraction and corns.
The only preparation the hoof requires
after the old shoe is taken off is that the
rasp must be used on the toe and quar
ters, making a reduction of about one
eighth of an inch on the lower side of the
hoof. The frog and heels and back part
of the foot should not be touched. This
shoe is made in accordance with the well
established principle that the more the
binder part of the foot—which is very
tough—is used, the harder and healthier
it becomes.—New York Telegram.
Policeman and Model.
There is a big, picturesque policeman
on the Broadway squad who is noted
among the habitues of the Rialto for his
flowing blond mustache, who turns an
occasional dollar as an artist's model.
Having posed during his watch on d6ck
for the benefit of the common people in
the flesh, be is transferred to imperisha
ble canvas to gladden the artistic eye of
generations yet to come. He has the
trunk and arms of a giant. In the opin
ion of a distinguished artist, this police
man is the best specimen of massive
physical perfection he ever saw. Of
course, the lady artists have all had a
hack at him with pencil and brush, for
which he invariably gets one dollar a sit
ting. No wonder he carries the air of a
man thoroughly satisfied with himself.

Tile Father of the Constitution.
It is not generally known that James
Madison was called the father of the
Constitution because he was the author
of the resolution presented to the Vir

to the thirteen states: to send delegates to

Union which resulted in the meeting of
the constitutional convention, in the de
liberations of which Madison took part.
