    Introduction to: Richard Kitson, The Musical Antiquary (1909-1913) Copyright © 2003 RIPM Consortium Ltd Répertoire international de la presse musicale (www.ripm.org) The Musical Antiquary (1909-1913) The Musical Antiquary [MUA] was published in Oxford from October 1909 to July 1913 by Oxford University Press. The quarterly issues of each volume1-which contain between sixty and eighty pages in a single-column format-are paginated consecutively (each beginning with page one) and dated but not individually numbered. The price of each issue was two shillings and sixpence. Publication ceased without explanation. The Musical Antiquary was among the first British music journals to deal with musicological subjects, and contained articles of historical inquiry dealing mainly with "ancient music": the Elizabethan, the British Commonwealth and Restoration periods, and eighteenth-century musicians and musical life. In addition, several articles deal with early manifestations of Christian chant, the techniques of Renaissance polyphony and topics dealing with Anglican and Roman Catholic liturgical practices. The journal's founder and editor was Godfrey Edward Pellew Arkwright (1864-1944), a tireless scholar deeply involved with the study of music history. Educated at the University of Oxford, Arkwright prepared the catalogue of music in the Library of Christ Church, Oxford, and edited several important publications: English vocal music in twenty-five volumes of the Old English Edition, and Purcell's Birthday Odes for Queen Mary and his Odes to St. Cecilia, both published by the Purcell Society.2 The main contribiitors to The Musical Antiquary are well-known scholars in the field of British musicology, all born in about the middle of the nineteenth century and all active through the first quarter of the twentieth.

  • The Buffalo Soldiers in Vermont, 1909–1913
    The Buffalo Soldiers in Vermont, 1909–1913 The arrival of the Tenth Cavalry sent Burlington into demographic shock. Almost overnight the small city acquired a substantial black community, a situation that clearly dismayed many residents. By David Work n July 1909, the Tenth United States Cavalry Regiment, one of four regular army black regiments collectively known as the Buffalo ISoldiers, arrived in Burlington, Vermont, to begin a four-year tour of duty at Fort Ethan Allen in neighboring Colchester. Their arrival alarmed the almost exclusively white population. Many people feared the presence of sizable numbers of African American soldiers in their community and a bitter debate ensued over whether the city should adopt Jim Crow facilities. For the next four years, the Tenth Cavalry would encounter similar reactions as it traveled throughout the north- east and as far south as Winchester, Virginia. Wherever they went, the black soldiers faced fear and suspicion and had to demonstrate good behavior to win the acceptance of the white population. Created in 1866, the Tenth Cavalry achieved its greatest fame in the late nineteenth century on the western frontier and then served with distinction during the Spanish-American War. In that conflict, the regi- ment charged up San Juan Hill with Theodore Roosevelt’s Rough Riders and won public renown as the “fighting Tenth Cavalry.” In the early twentieth century, the Tenth fought in the Philippine War, served in .....................

  • The Aeronautical Division, US Signal Corps By
    The First Air Force: The Aeronautical Division, U.S. Signal Corps By: Hannah Chan, FAA history intern The United States first used aviation warfare during the Civil War with the Union Army Balloon Corps (see Civil War Ballooning: The First U.S. War Fought on Land, at Sea, and in the Air). The lighter-than-air balloons helped to gather intelligence and accurately aim artillery. The Army dissolved the Balloon Corps in 1863, but it established a balloon section within the U.S. Signal Corps, the Army’s communication branch, during the Spanish-American War in 1892. This section contained only one balloon, but it successfully made several flights and even went to Cuba. However, the Army dissolved the section after the war in 1898, allowing the possibility of military aeronautics advancement to fade into the background. The Wright brothers' successful 1903 flight at Kitty Hawk was a catalyst for aviation innovation. Aviation pioneers, such as the Wright Brothers and Glenn Curtiss, began to build heavier-than-air aircraft. Aviation accomplishments with the dirigible and planes, as well as communication innovations, caused U.S. Army Brigadier General James Allen, Chief Signal Officer of the Army, to create an Aeronautical Division on August 1, 1907. The A Signal Corps Balloon at the Aeronautics Division division was to “have charge of all matters Balloon Shed at Fort Myer, VA Photo: San Diego Air and Space Museum pertaining to military ballooning, air machines, and all kindred subjects.” At its creation, the division consisted of three people: Captain (Capt.)

Orbach* In April 2010, the Supreme Court handed down its decision in United States v. Stevens, in which the Court struck down a federal law that banned the depiction of conduct that was illegal in any state. Exactly one hundred years earlier, without any federal law, censorship of conduct illegal under state law and socially con- demned mushroomed in most towns and cities across the country. In the summer of 1910, states and municipalities adopted bans on prizefight films in order to censor black supremacy in controver- sial sport that was illegal in most states. It was one of the worst waves of movie censorship in American history, but it has been largely ignored and forgotten.

  • Chapter 3 the Creation of the US Tariff Commission
    Chapter 3 The Creation of the U.S. Tariff Commission Photo: Frank Taussig, the first Commission Chairman. Page | 71 Chapter 3: The Creation of the U.S. Tariff Commission W. Elliot Brownlee155 Introduction The great movement for economic and political reform that swept the nation in the early 20th century—the movement that historians commonly refer to as “progressivism”—provided the impetus for the creation of the U.S. Tariff Commission. At the national level, the progressive movement had as one of its major targets the tariff system that had emerged from the American Civil War. The high-water mark of progressive reform of tariffs was the enactment in 1913 of the Underwood-Simmons Tariff Act as a central expression of the “New Freedom” agenda that President Woodrow Wilson had championed in his successful bid for the presidency in 1912. (The sponsors of the act were Oscar W. Underwood, a Democratic Representative from Alabama, and Furnifold M. Simmons, a Democratic Senator from North Carolina.) In framing this agenda Wilson called for sweeping reforms that would constrain corporate power and expand economic opportunities for middle-class Americans. The result was an unprecedented burst of federal legislation. It began with the Underwood-Simmons Tariff (referred to below as the Underwood Tariff) and was followed in short order by the Federal Reserve Act (1913), the Federal Trade Commission Act (1914), and the Clayton Antitrust Act (1914). In the process of enacting these measures Wilson displayed more effective executive leadership than had any another President since Abraham Lincoln. And, the measures themselves permanently expanded the role of the federal government in the economy and, at the same time, enhanced the power of the executive branch.

  • Guide to Marianne Moore Series VI Family Correspondence
    Series VI: Family Correspondence Family correspondence is arranged chronologically. Beginning in 1848, it includes letters to and from the Rev. John Riddle Warner (MM’s maternal grandfather) from the time of his early pastoral work in Pennsylvania. Most of these letters (1848-1859) are written by or to Henry and Mary Warner (his parents), Henry Warner (his brother), and Annie Warner (Mrs. Robert) Armstrong (his sister). Other letters addressed “Dear Brother: ae from his ministerial colleagues. Beginning about 1859 there are added letters to and from Jennie Craig, who became his wife in 1860; her brother, George Craig; and the Eyster family, relative of the Craigs. Many letters are addressed from Laurel Hill, Pennsylvania, home of Jennie Craig and her family near Gettysburg. Jennie and John Warner lived near Gettysburg after their marriage. Mary Craig Warner was born to John and Jennie Warner in 1862. In September 1863, Jennie Warner died as a result of the disease which infested the Gettysburg area after the Civil War battle there. Infant Mary went to live with her Warner grandparents in Allegheny, Pennsylvania (now part of Pittsburgh). Letters from her to her “Pa” begin about 1870. About 1865, her father moved to Kirkwood Presbyterian Church. When Mary Warner reached high school age, she joined him, and attended the Mary Institute in St. Louis. She married John Milton Moore in 1884 and moved with him to Newton, Massachusetts, where their son, John Warner Moore, was born in 1886. While there, her husband suffered a nervous breakdown, and Mary Warner Moore returned to her father’s home in Kirkwood.
