Alfred Grunfield Is coming to Provi-
dence He will appear with his brother
Hinnieh, court violincellist to the En-
peror of Germany. in Music Hall on Tues
day evening, Dec. 29th, under the manage
ment of j. A. Shibley. Alfred Frunfeld is
court pianist to the Emperors of Germany
and Austria. He is one of the greatest
pianists this country has ever seen since
the time of Rubenstein, His career in
Europe has been as wonderful rs his tai
ent is remarkable. When lad of 10 he
gave his first concert in Prague, his native
city. The performance elected such a
storm of applause and earned for him the
name of Wonderland or Wonder
Child"
His life since 1876 has been that Of q
nomad. He has visited all the large cities
of Europe and everywhere his playing has
called forth the widest enthusiasm. Grun-
field and his brother Heinrich, the greatest
'cellist were the only participants in the
last concert which the late Emperor Fred
erick gave while still crown prince Of Ger
many. At the special request OF Carmen
Sylvia he appeared in Bucharest before a
select audience of 100 On another occa-
sion he was summoned into the presence
of the Emperor of Russia, the Czarina de-
string to thank him in person for concert
in aid Of the Red Cross society. When he
plays a spirit storms and RACES, walls and
means, sighs and sings, whispers and
lisps, whistles and laughs, through the
strings, as if a wild host of demons and
imps had been let loose to play havoc
with the souls of listeners. No longer

colony, did so without legal advice and so
arose the difficulty when he insisted that
the land was owned as corporate institu-
tion. William Harris was the leader OF
the proprietors while Samuel Gorton,
man noted for his antagonistic spirit, sur
rounded by the young men who had no
land, claimed that the proprietors had no
right to the land any more than squatters
and that any subject of the King had as
much right as they to settle on the land.
The controversy became so alarming
that aid was invoked from Massachusetts,
but without Roger Williams approval.
Gov. Winthrop of Massachusetts replied
that unless these settlements would place
themselves under the jurisdiction OF one
OF the Massachusetts colonies they could
aid them in no way This the Providence
colonies refused TO do, and they finally
quisted the disturbances. and affairs
moved on more quietly, though Rhode
Island had been in great danger of losing
her identity.

asked him To speak. A diRnified citizen
got up and told of the horrible things he
had seen in Paris on Sunday, and O'Rell
replied by showing that the man could
not have visited the art galleries, open TO
the working people, the theatres where
they enjoy the concerts in the evening nor
the churches. Where did he gof
The impressions which he got of Ameri-
can politeness was illustrated by the story
of the man who got O'Rell's book In the
smoking car and kept 1t all the way from
New York TO Boston, and then asked him
il he had read 1t.
The story about the reporter out West
who interviewed him after he had gone TO
bed, and the one about the French idea
that Americans wore broad -brimmed hats
pistols were told, too, and that other one
about his mother idea of the disgrace OF
his coming to America. One thing, he
said, which impressed him, was the ABB
sence of stupid faces in America. The
people were all intelligent looking.
The sharp things he said were all softer-
ed by the fine compliment he paid the wo-
men of America. Their position he as
cribed TO the fact that both sexes were ed

tion of how Fienchman and his wife an

recognized the pictures, and applauded
loudly. In fact, the applause was gener-
