THE GREAT sAENaERFEsT.

Great will be the honor paid by the
American metropolis tomorrow ana the
..wo succeeding days to the National
Baengerfest on the occasion OF It's siori-
ous song festival, and well Will the
honor be deserved.
A people devoted to music and song
are a people to be trusted. Where is to
be found deeper incentive to patriot
Ism. where n more persuasive eXhorta-
ton to tenderness and love, where Il
more .eliable indication of gentleness,
honor and integrity? Says Ruskin. "All
great song, from the first day when
human lips contrived syllables. has been
sincere song" The German nation Is a
nation of music and song. Who will say
that this characteristic OF her people has
not been the handspring of that devo-
ton to "fatherland" so deep in every
German heart. Who will deny that 1t
has helped to make the German-Amer-
lean generally loyal. law respecting
useful citizen of the Republic, the
earnest enemy of that Anarchy which
fhas sprung up under all European Gov.
ernments?
It is proper that the President of the
OtdteS, lue IoNtIhpl VI NiiS
State and the Mayor of the city should
unite in showing respect for the great
song festival and should grace the occa
sion OF the opening torchlight parade
with their presence. The sight vii
be we'll worth seeing. as the mon
ster concerts In Madison Square Garder
during the festival will be richly worth
hearing. The singers invited numbe
ten thousand. and they include the mos
famous artists of the day and nearly al
the celebrated associations and societ'e
in the Union. With such names as Ma
terna. Emma Juch, Lillian Blauvelt
Tavary, Maud Powell, Campanari. Emf
Fischer. Behrens, Herbert and Freid
helm the New York people are familiar
1t Is expected that six thousand mem
bers of the societies will pass under tn
triumphal arch at Madison Square o.
the night of the parade.
Success, then, to the great Nationa
Saengerfest, and may the citizens O
New York delight in uniting to do fu
honor to the festival.

In "a Million Enough?

To the Editor:
would like to ask the readers OF THE Even
Ing World whether 81 OoO. 900 is not enough to
satisfy the ambition OF any reasonable man! This
sum, at a low estimate, will yield him $50. 900 or
$40 900 annually. Can he without greed. ask for
more? II by legislative act accumulations couId
be limited to this amount all worthy ambitions
would be gratned The rich would be we'll pro-
tected. The mult-mlllonaire would no longer
be stumbling block In the way OF his less
fortunate brother Wealth would be more evenly
distributed among those most deserving OF II, and
came into this world in one equal.
to the extent OF our deservings, we would have
fairer chance Of maintaining a moro equal
footing than is possible under our present greedy
and unjust system. No injustice would be done
the rich. and no favoritism would be shown the
sluggard. but increased incentive would be given
to the thrifty; industries would thrive, our labor
ing classes be benefited and for uprisngs
cease. The greater good would be done for the
greater number. PRO BONO PUBLICO.

That same young Mr. Sulzer who one.
proclaimed his knowledge OF what the
New York Stata Senate would do with
the New York city reform bills has just
made IA speech to the Hoboken Turtle
Club. The gathering which he ad-
dressed was purely social one. but he
couldn't resist the temptation to inject
a little Tammany politics. He did It by
sneering at the Lexow Committee.
Then he experienced an immediate and
decided frost" This was another time
when Mr. Sulzer thought he knew. but
didn't know. AS he grows older, and
the accumulation OF Lexow revelations
grows bigger Mr.. Sulzer will possibly
be able to pick UP several points on
what not to say and when not to say IT.

Porcelain on the Toilet Table.

For the toilet table silver and tortoise-
shell are being superseded by porcelain
backed articles. One might imagine
them more fragile than they really are,
but they are not easily broken. This
fancy is an English one, and has become
so popular that II recent gift to the Duke
and Duchess of York consisted of
toilet table with all its appointments
in porcelain. They are said to be ex-
tremely beautiful. The mirrors are
wreathed with roses, from the hearts
of which tiny electric lights shine forth

To the Editor:
Are not many OF the so-called "private de-
tective agencies of our city abettors OF vice
within the letter OF the law? A friend narrated
to me verv recently an experience with OF
these concerns that savors Of rather shady meth
DDS. to say the least. A lady acquaintance OF my
friend. In quest OF a situation. answered ad-
vertisement in a morning paper. Upon meeting
the advertiser. she was informed that the posi-
tion was that OF detective. As sample OF the
style OF work she could expect. he recited a tale
OF an alleged society woman. who after deb-
erately abandoning her home and without the
slightest excuse iudulging in grossest immortality
or u week more. applied to him to square
her with her husband. The plan by which the
agency hoodwinked the doubling lord and mas
ter. and restored the wife to his confidence ''un-
til such time as she might again transgress," was
told with great satisfaction and given ex-
Smpe OF the way they treated "such cases."
The name OF the concern did not learn. but was
informed that tho detective branch was carried
on secretly. another business altogether being

No Tax on Empty Wells.

To the Editor:
The definition OF wealth. as debts due and co1s
lectable' is no more absurd than Mr.. sanford'A
example OF what he calls a single-tax absurdity.
The oil well increases the value OF the farm while
the well contains oil with the disappearance OF
the oil the increased value also vans
ishes. So there is no danger OF any
tax being collected empty wells. The
single tax is after the full WELL and the fuli-
est OF all wells is where population has become

eye OF existing close to his employment. Tax
