The School Of Music

The Courier had a very pleasant cliat with Treasurer Wines of the University School of Music, yesterday. The genial professor is himself surprised at the outlook for the coming year at the school, and is busily engaged in attending to the multitudinous business interests ulready in motion. For several weeks every day's mail has brought requests froni people all over the state for registratiou and assignment of hours under the various instructors. The growing reputation of such men as Professor Jonas, Professor Lamaon and Professor Zeitz, is responsible for this. Last year with all the maneuvering possible the schedule of these iustructors was overcrowded. Professor Wines says that whatever the rush this year all who come can be accouimodated with instruction in the school. If present applications indieate anything there will surely be need for the extra instructors whom the management have partly arranged for. The business of the school is already farther advanced than it was last year two weeks after the opening day of the instruction. The University Musical Society have laid great plans for the coming year. Especially great are the arrangements far the Choral Union series of concerts and the May Festival. The Festival will this year begin on Thursday evening and close on Saturday evening, and include at least five musical entertainments. This will give the patrons of the Choral Union series ten numbers for the usual price, three dollars. As already announced by the Courier two of these concerts will be given by the Thomas' Orchestra which won so great praise here during the last year. Then there will be the two concerts by the Choral Union - one miscellaneous program and one oratorio, the name of which eau uotyet be given. There will be one great piano recital by some one of the distinguished foreign pianista who are to visit this country. The remaining concerts can not just now be announced. . ..
