We again take occasion to congratulate the Building Committee of the Second Baptist Church on their success in making their or- gan inits new position picturesaue and beautifula feature of that model sanctuary. The signal advantage they have gained is large compensation for the anxieties and iabors im- posed upon them by the unexpected necessity ot rebuilding. sO We sympathize with our musicianly friend, Mr. Waldemar Maimene, in his recent loss through the burglarious successes of a stolid midnight prowler, described in verse and for Cause, as ‘‘ht for treason, stratagem and spoils.’’ The rutkless burglar who would de- nude high art, as enshrined ina man who de- votes is life to music, of its watcrial belong- ings,is more mischievous than a ghoul. Tle programme o! the concert last Tuésday somewhat pretentious-ly says ot the Vox Humana inthe new O¢ell organ that ‘it is a wortby peer of the celebrated stop of that name in the cathedral organ at Fribourg, Switzerland.’’ The stop referred to Ocellorgan isa very pleasant and elfective rece@a; but we do potthink manv people fami- lfar with the best work curin the opinion that it is liumana. It the Fribourg builders of that organ might do well to comejto \mericn and take in voicing of the liooks at Boston The New York Club, of which Miss Le ton ot this city isa member, bave been giving concertsin Boston, and here is what the know- eopleofthe Itub sav about the matter: irplinment the New York Clab,on tlreir formance; they plaved the music should be playv- toree their tones to cor- the sizeof thehall;as a ec >nua were excellentiv rendeyv the compositions was not picee had the usual boot comers.
