Instrument Was Known to Ancient Greeks and Romans. : It is said the drum was introduced by the Moors in Europe {rom the east after the Crusaders, but under various forms it was certainly known to the Greeks and Romans, fer the tympanum is frequently alluded to in the classics, which probably in- cluded the tambourine and Kettle drum. In the modern orchestra three principal 'forms of the 'drum are to be found. The common or side drum, the bass or Turkish drum, and the kettle drum. The first is usually composed of a cylinder of wood or metal. Each end is covered with vellum or parch- ment, the tension being regulated by strings. If is worn at the side of the performer who beats the upper end, called the "batter head," with sticks, the under or "snare head," contains a set of cat-gut strings call- ed "snares," which add to the sharp crisp tone of the instrument, The bass drum is a large nstru- ment of the same kind, the cylinder is of oak, while jt is beaten on both ends with drum sticks that are fur- nished with leather pads. 1t is considered by the military bands to be one of its. most useful instru- ments, though it is as usefully em- ployed by the modern orchestra, while many recent composers have availed themselves of it in their com- positions. The most important form of drum is, however, the kettle drum in all orchestral as distinct from military music. This instrument is hemi- spherical in shape, its bason ig made of brass or copper, the cover being of vellum attached to an iron ring, the whole is placed on an iron tri- pod. It is tuned by screws, though its limits are, of course, narrow. Kettle drums are always unsed in pairs, one being tuned to the key note, the other a fourth below. These three drums are essential in every orchestra, while for any spe- cial music, the gang, tom tom, ot some other similar instrument is used, It takes years of practice, writes H. H. Kinzett, In the Montreal Star, td acquire the suppfeness of wrist required by the isde drummer 4 he wishes to excel, so it is necessary to commence the study early or the labor will be in vain. Talents Transmitfed to Sons. There are numerous instances in history in which parents possessing uneommon gifts are supposed to have passed them on to their children. This is especially the case in regard to musical talents. The mother of Schurmann, for in- stance, had great musical ability, Chopin received his wonderful gift---1 and also his delicate constitution from, the maternal side; mother was exceedingly fond of niusie, while the mother of Spohr, the German' composer, was an. ex- cellent judge of music and a fine eri- tie, without being herself a musician. Sir Walter Raleigh declared that he inherited from his mother the politeness of deportment which ever * Gounod's Fashion Flint Especially for this Prepared Newspaper. ho NN DRESSES WITH EXCELLENT FEATURES.
