FABMERS MUCH ALARMED. , , To say that the farmers through out the entire county are alarmed 1s an .expression j entirely too mild to convey ; properly their feeling over the situation. They are aroused . to such ,, pitch, of t excitement as to cause ' sleepless nights and constant fear of $eing a victim' .to the alleg- , eo nro-Dugs who t are responsible for th ' epidemic fot burnings. . Many are the nights that they lie tossing upon their toeds, fearful that any moment they may look out to a . n I V, T 1 1 - a r i t; uivnr ii.uikji 111 h. uiur di iisjitirh. This state of feeling . existed a year ago ' as ' decidedly as a, at the pres ent, tout .through the summer when .' there were no fires,' the . farmers were led to believe .that it was all over ana there -was nothing more to ' fear. But the situation within the last ten nays has reached a state - similar to that of twelve months ago, and jeven exceeds Jt in Intensity. In- t quines are . being made as to -the j-igbi urse to pursue to get at the wttotn f th ; matter and there is no farmer throughout ' the . length and ' the ? breadth of ' Mecklenburg who ia not willing to join hnnda and add something .of his resources to any amount necessary to apprehend the cause of so many fires. , - WAT; SOMETHING DONE. ; The anxiety Vfhieh is being ex perienced is of itself an occasion for immediate work on the part of the people and the officer who should' take : a hand . in the situation. ! No single oortlon of the county is ex- ', empt . front the dread which , the - epidemic; has caused. Unlike the . burnings last fan, those withtm the . past two weeks have not been con lined to . any locality, out , have ap parently swept from one corner" to , another. Last fall Steele Creek and Werryhlll were the centres of -the field - within" which the fires occur red, - tout not so- now, . - Long Creek, Sharon. Morning Star and - other townships have been the scenes ' of fires equal to any. that occurred last That , something must be domrl right now is the feeling and conclu-f slon which has , been reached by the patriotic, citizens of Mecklenburg, and even, those who have not been victims' of the flames, .are desirous of doing all they can to find out the cause, both ror their own sakes and .the sake Of their nelsrhihnra whn have heen less fortunate. The gen era! opinion prevailing at present is " that the : county commissioners HhouM rive the' InvnaHcratlnn Ar. sleht and. exnend as much mnnev a is essential in gettng at the facts. It : is armed that ' this-' board.- heino- tne county s guaraians, owes the cit izens a duty in expending enough money to give them such protection as is needed. , . THE GENERAL BELIEF, " It appears now ' that the hoard 'Will take the matter in hand, and while its treasury is not flushed just now. the -e people will not complain if the' commisslonera - put as much as . 23.000 V' into the investigation which 'is needed. It may require only a small amount, hut the people want-,- the - burnings ' stopped, if it takes a large sum. at'e worth ' a guuu uai ;io inem, iiney aeciare, io lie down on their beds at night and rest wtthout dread of awaking to find themselves the victims x of nuch terrible- eatai.trophes as '' have hepn surtered. Just how the matter will be investigated cannot now toe niatcu,, x licit u hi iiuio -eviaence that the burnings, are the work of incendiaries, that it mav- be a matter of th of diflleultyto , get at the' bottom of e matters There exists ' no doubt jin longer in the public mind as to tne origin, everybody toellevlna-v that they .

V ' Lat 'winter and spring the barns - of Messrs Frank-Edwin. W. B. Choate,, John Smith and Mesdames Brown Grlcr J. H. Saddler, and Knox, were burned, with a total of 22 horses and mules. Mr. Choate was the heaviest low of any whose tram fcave heen fired. Jl lost tAo good horses and five .mules,: and hi barn was -afcouutiis finest, in the- county. : T. J.

The greatest musical event of the season was Madame . Schumann Heink's rocibal at the Academy of Mu sic last night. - The programme com prised every. imaginable speeies of composition open to a singer, eelera tuna arias, as the famous -Fides" aria, dramatic arias, as the "Waldtraute" ana ;Adriano" arias ; and romantic, dramatio and light little humorous songs. . It seems like a sacrilege to express In words what the slnaer did. how she did' it and what the effect was. ; Words are such poor: medium or expressionwhen one's heart is full to overflowing.'-- It is difficult to say what was rendered best, for Madame scnumann-Helnk is as . great an ora torio -and operatic singer as she Is a song singer. The programme was opened with the glorious "Ah Ren dlmi," . by Rossr, sufficiently ' well known here as It was repeatedly sung m.i concert ot late. , rrnm the -verv first note the singer 'held the audience spellbound .until long after . the last sound had ' died away. She made one experience the religious mysticism of Rossi, the romantlo grandeur of the rancirul Schubert, the powerful tmag Inatlon of the great "Richard" and the caprices - and sentimentality of "Brahm's" gypsies.' Then again she makes one .light-hearted ? when she sings the dainty and beautiful little pieces of brlc-a-brao like "Danza," by Chadwlck.' and "Love in a Cottage, b. Ganz. - SINGER FORGETS HER SUR- ROUNDING S. ' The singer entirely' forgets her sur roundings, while she Is on the stage, she is completely wrapt up in her art Those are moments of supreme tes tacy, of entire isolation from the outer world in wnich the woman is no longer master of herself. In which the artist approaches nearer to her ideal, which she longs -with such passionate yearnings to reach, . that the outer world, her own self, and the impres sion made upon her auditors are quite forgotten.';-" ,.'..". ''uh' -1 -A Madame Schumann-Heink s voice is better now than it was at any stage of her career. " The tremendous vol ume, the great tonal duality, the won derful, indefinable, human timbre, the artkitic tone formation, the clear mo tion, everything U there yet as t was twenty years ago, only In a fcreat im proved state. , , . The great coleratura aria from it Prophete" ; was magnificently sung. The passages and cadenzas clear and D-arlv. the trills like the , trills of a bird if not more perfect, and then araln the Dowerful attack, the eternal curses which Fldes" con jures npon the hear of her unfortunate son Jhann. Madame Schumann's phras ing, her piano, crescendo, forte and diminuendo effects are immense. She and the great Llli Lehmann are prob- ablv the only ones known, wno realize what a morendo Is; ? She lets her tones llnzer ever and ever softer until thev comDltely die out. f Ah there is hut one Schumann-Heinkt ; : The Waldtrauten and Adnano anas were arloriouslv rendered, one; might only say that the piano accompaniment is tC little out or piace.nere. Tne. great lhstrumentatlve genius of Richard Wagner could not express himself on so poor and insufficient n instrument. The melancholy . "Wanderer" com pletely enraptured the,; audience;; The singer speaks to one with her whole beautous1 and glorious soul, and makes 6ne's heart ache with her aches arid again makes one glad with her Joys. 'i.-iiti:.-'KyM if .,,. . THE ACCOMPANIST IS FIRST RATE The accompanist Mrs. Katherlne Holfman, is excellent. She. has a fluent technique and a wonderful touch, while she does not lack in pow er, if same is required. In usage of pedals she could give many of our lately hear so-called piano virtuosi cards and spades. Accompanying is a ' great art in itself the loosing ofi - one's personality and the. divining of the feelings and the very thoughts of the soloist and Mrs. Holfman is one of 'the few who have accomplished this, one. of the elect by the grace of God. ..From a musical standpoint the con cert was,, of course, a grand success. such as Charlotte only witnesses every leap year,; from a financial standpoint --ah, but thatMs a horse of another color. , One might say, however, that If Charlotteans do not wake soon from their slumber, 'Jeep-their unmusical slumber there;wlll not be any more real artists to be found who will brave the' dangers of' financial disaster in the South, for the - sake of the few which go to hear them. ' Art has to look for bread the same as everything and everybody else 1n this wide, wide 1 world. It is hoped, that the general financial distress whrcn has: spread. recently all over the country, is the cause of the spectacle of last night a Schumann-Helnk with but a half house and that next .time it will be better. : -" -AS A WOMAN AND SINGER, Soon after the arrival of Madame Schumann-Helnk 'early .yesterday morning two Observer reporters call ed on her in the Belwyn HoteL They were at once usnerea into her apart ments, where thev were cordially wel comed by herself and 4iuaban4 , The copversatlvn was mostly carried on in German to the great distress of one of .the reporters, who found It rather difficult at times to follow its strain. Madame - Schumann-Helnk was not endowed hy f - nature v -: with; ft a 1 great amount of beauty, ana the cares and ortF tWi ' "ot ' he? arty career have not passed . hru by! without ,y leaving their .traces,; but, when he singer be comes interested in a conversation, she partakes of If ; in a epirlted way and a great . metamorphosis takes piac)! the wondrous beauty of her soul shines out or ner eyes ana so beautifies her features that. the hear er " Is completely captured 5 and sue eurnba to the charms or her person allty. s-,'" Juadam Bchumann-neink, ques tioned about her . early experiences on the operatic stage, related an in- HOW TO CURE A COLD, to careful as you ran von will twrm. slonslly take cold, and when you do, art medicine of known reliability, one h has an .established refutation and that Is certain to effect a - quick cure.

I had Juit scoured a divorce from my first huEband, Mr. Heink. and had to support my four little children all by myself. It. was this, the hard est period in my life, constantly op pressed by financial troubles and but a lukewarm reception by the audi ences 4n the theatre. Then came the day when I appeared as Tides'" in Meyerbeer's 'II Prophete,' and from there dates my upward career, My success as 'Fides' was overwhelming, the people went wild, and I was re called and recalled.-. The next day when I went to the market halj (I had no servants and was obliged to do the housework myself) X stopped at the teat of a butcher to buy my dally ration of meat . The woman wno attended to the business Instantly rec ognized me and threw her arms la the air, exclaiming: - Na. , Helnken. Jes- tern haben Sie abcr mat wieder wun- aerschoen gesungen. ich ha be fort ,waehrend iieulen muessen, und' Sie sollen dafuer'auch eln extrapfund Flelsch kriegen' L i e. Why. little Heink, last night you sang so beau tifully, and I had to cry so much, that I'll throw an - extra pound of meat into the bargain to-day., " 1 , CONTRALTOS STILL GREAT The reporter then questioned M"n singer about the great contraltos of the day, and the general tendency of tnis category to screw up their voices and !t attempt soprano roles, and, she answered: , ."I have heard of and noticed that some contraltos try to abandon the place which nature has Intended for them, but such a proceeding wilt tell on their voices in a "short time.' It is easy-for a well-trained contralto who knows how to use her voice,-to sing occasional high notes, but that Is altogether a different 'thing than the singing of an outright soprano role.1 r The reporter stated that it had been claimed that most of the alto parts In operas are old women and char acter parts, and the" singer exclaimed: s'Why, it'W Just in such character roles where I have made my greatest and most glorious successes. A real singer does not appear on the stage to show her beautiful figure and fine fea tures,' on - the contrary, she is ; abso lutely, oblivious of those things, and only lives in her part and her art, I kqow of instances where I played for several months the part of a blind old grandmother in a revolutionary play named i'Andre Chenler.' 'My three sons were supposed to have per ished in the revolution and my daugh ter had committed suicide on account ot her husband's death. All that I had left was my little 14-year-old 'grandson whom I had to lead to the altar where he was to be sacrificed for the cause of the revolution. I had really only about 12 measures to sing in a.low, and monotonous voice and still I completely captured my hearers and moved them to tears, always play ing to packed houses." TOUR ARRANGED FOR' NEXT fv- ' YEAR. . Madame Schumann-Helnk then spoke of the tour she had planned for next year. She will appear In the "Featapiele" at Bayreutb. in July and thence go to France, Russia and England, ending up in "ner native country, Germany., J3he believes that this tour will be extended over a pei rlod of two years; ' The reporters then made their adieus accompanied by the good wishes of the famous singer, who expressed her delight at their having called upon her, Madame Schumann-Helnk is an, interesting and animated talker as well as a glorious singer, and the memory of this inter view ,,wlll long remain with the two Observer reporters who called on her.
