Tonight Lincoln hall will bs the scene of Hans
Won BuloW's last concert, and 1t IS evident that
the desire 10 hear him again Is much greater
than on the occasion Of his first concert. The pro-
gramme is rich with the most classical selections,
and an evening Of the rarest enjoyment is In pros

present. One word to some Of the minor members
Of foreign Legations: They are never objects Of
admiration in public places more than other
men, but they often become objects Of discomfort
to an audience by display Of ILL breeding incon-
sistent with their positions as gentlemen. Their
rudeness and loud talking Tuesday night at Won
Bulow's concert once compelled him to stop play
ing, and called for frequent rebukes. II 1t was
the first or second oense It could be passed over.
