GEORGETOWN ORCHESTRA
Its First Concert This Season a Brilliant
Success.
Metxerott Hall Filled With an Intelli-
gent and Appreciative Audience
The Solo Assistants.

The forty-sixth concert of the Georgetown
Amateur Orchestra was given last night at
Metzerott Music Hall. The orchestra at
tanned one of the most notable triumphs of
Its career. Its success last night seemed to
be the greatest of all its successes. In bril-
iiancy and size the audience was all that
artists could have required to inspire them.
The applause. although judicious. was as
lavish as it was deserved. Enco-es were de-
manded in al! the solo Numbers. but grant
ed in but one instance. Mr.. Herman Rake
mann proved himself equal to all the re-
quirements of the time, and showed that
the orchestra in comforting upon him the
honorable responsibility OF conductor. made
no mistake. and that he is a worthy sue
cessor of Prof Kaspar. under whose direc-
ton the orchestra reached a high standard.
Mr.. Rakemann's long son of bowling has
given him q forearm action in welding his
baton, but this was lost sight of In the
earnestness, freshness and magnetism of
his leadership. The orchestra obeyed all de-
mands on it by it's conductor. The players
worked together in perfect sympathy of
purpose, evincing thorough training and
long musical association.

The program opened with the overture
die Felsenmuhle," by Reussger. 1t was
full Of racy sparkle. and all the music that
was In it, came out under the treatment
accorded it. 1t was greeted with applause
which meant something more than mere
formal and complimentary hand clapping
At the close of this number the orchestra
was presented with a rich floral Tyre of
heroic size. The second number was the
cavatina, Lett Signor, from the Huguenots
and was sung by Miss Sophia Church Hail.
The full and pure contralto of the young
lady was heard to remarkable advantage
Her singing was excellent in all respects
and the apparent ease with which she ex-
ecuted d1fficult passages and the distinct
ness Of her enunciation were some of the
charms with which she won the audience
The whole house begged for an encore, but
got only graceful bows. Miss Hall was
presented with a great basket of flowers
too much for her to lift. The third number
was Spanish dance from MosZkowski and
this went with dash that proved the fasci-
nation which castinetts and tambOurine
may have when artistically dealt with. A
Czardas. by Michiels, followed, and was ap-
plausively received.
Mr.. John Porter Lawrence was the next
contributor to the program. and he per-
formed with great delicacy, refinement of
expression and tonal excellence Won Web
er's Concert Stuck in F minor. At Its
close the people would not rest content
and the pianist played a little encore piece
that added to his conquest. One Of the
bright features of the evening was the
Air de Ballet. by Depret. arranged by Mr.
Rakemann. for string orchestra and harp
The soloist was Miss Anita Cluss Miss
Cluss demonstrated herself an artist of
rare ability, and her brilliant technique
and expressive phrasing only served to in
crease the esteem in which her talents have
heretofore been held. An encore piece
would have been acceptable The artist
was presented with about as many roses
as she could carry. Traumerie, by Schmeltz
and Menuet. by Handel, gave the orchestra
its best opportunity of the evening to tell
with what feeling 1t can render music Of
this kind. Miss Hall sang "A Summer
Night" by Thomas. and followed this with
"Protestations," Mr.. Rakemann playing the
violin obligatO. Perhaps the hit which Miss
Hall made in these selections was even
greater than that made in her rendering
of the cavatina. Bizet's LArsesienne, with
flute solo by Mr.. Henry Jaeger. closed the
program. Mr.. Harry Howard was an eff
cient and intelligent accompanist.
The orchestra has every reason to feel
proud of it's success last night, and the
warmth of its reception proves that 1t Is
highly regarded by the large number Of
citizens who are interested in music. I'm
der its new president, Mr.. B. II. Warner.
and its new director. Mr.. Rakemann. the
Georgetown Amateur Orchestra will have
even greater success than in the past.

LAUREL.

An important meeting of the city council
was held last night, at which several
amendments to the city charter were pro-
posed, acted upon favorably and a commit
tee appointed to present them to the legis-
lature. 1t is proposed to reduce the num-
Der of councilmen from nine to five. one
from each ward and two at large. The
amendments also provide for the appoint
ment of the bailff and supervisor, instead
of electing them by the popular vote, as at
present. The debt Of the city at this time
is $4,000, less 5000 in the sinking fund,
which is to be paid out of a proposed loan
of $4,000 the balance to be used for i'm
proving the streets. Heretofore any pro-
posed legislation affecting the town has
been submitted to the people, but on ac-
count of the well-known opp IN of a
majority of the people to all ,roposed
measures an attempt will be M to rail
road them through the legislature. This
is not the proper way to obtain legislation
from body who are as jealous of the
rights and wishes of the people as the pres
ent general assembly OF Maryland.

TO STOP PROFESSIONAL CONTESTS.
A Majority of Members of the C. A. C.
Said to BE Determined Upon 1t.

Said to BE Determined Upon 1t.
The discussion started in reference to the
pugilistic exhibition at the Columbia Ath-
letic Club Wednesday night will. it is be-
lieved have a wholesome effect, for already
members are seriously considering the ne
cessity of changing the policy of the club
regarding such exhibitions.
Many of the club members. who are de-
cidedly opposed to exhibitions similar to
the one of Wednesday evening, believe in
and enjoy purely amateur sparring. One of
such members Mr. Mills Dean, who was a
member Of the board of governors during
the presidencies of Lieut.. Bradbury and
Mr. Hood, said to a Star reporter that he
has always been opposed to allowing pro-
fessionals to spar in the club house, be-
cause he thought it tended to discourage
sparring by the members of the club. The
admission Of professionals is a new policy
and Mr.. Dean thinks it will soon have to
be abandoned. Lieut.. Bradbury, who is a
most enthusiastic supporter of athletics,
was always opposed to allowing any pro-
fessionals in the club house, and Mr.. Hood
was equally so.
Mr.. Dean said further that a majority of
the members of the club undoubtedly op-
posed the giving of professional sparring
matches, and he said he believed he voiced
the general sentiment of such members
when he said that the continuance of such
contests would, eventually, wreck the club.
Mr.. Dean cited the instance of a formerly
we'll known Boston club, which illustrated
what he meant. That club. he explained,
had, like the c. A. c.. first given purely
amateur sparring contests between it's
members and members of similar organi-
cations. But. unfortunately, he said, the
Boston club did not rest with amateur con-
tests, but, upon the request of certain of
mi m hslrG aYy1lIf Tod Ocin al
rers to engage in contests in the club house.
Then a taste for more violent contests
sprang UP, and once allowed, the members
and their patrons cried for more blood.
Gradually. therefore. the purses given grew
larger, the blood flowed more often and
more freely, and the tickets to the contests
grew higher, until at length the downfall
of the club followed.
Such. MIR. Dean said. he feared would be
the case with the c. "A. land as one of what
he now believed was a majority of the
members of the c. "A. c., he desired to say
that he wished .such contests as that of
Wednesday evening stopped, and at once.

EPwoRTH LEAGUE ORATORY.
The Prize is Won by MIR. Williams of
the Hamline Chapter.

thc Snupter.
In the presence of an audience which fill
ed the Metropolitan NJ. E. Church, ALP
and streets, Mr.. E. w. Williams of the
Hamline chapter of the Epworth League or
this District last evening took the prize
offered in the first annual oratorical con-
test of the league. The subject of Mr.. WILL
Jams GRAFTON was THE Intellectual Phase
of American Life" and the young mans

ical success So. too. were the efforts Of
his competitors, Mr.. w. H. Kerr of Foun-
dry, whose subject was Mastery" Mr.
Harry o. Hine Of Waugh, who spoke Of
Backbone" and Miss Hattie B. Walker Of
Metropolitan, who addressed herself to
THE Effect Of Physical Environment Upon
the Development of the Race but the
judges decided that while it was very Diff
hcult to determine the best in a contest
where all the contestants had done so WELL
Mr.. Williams. ii seemed to them, had
slightly exceeded in thought and compo-
sition and also in the delivery. The young
man was then presented by Senator Kyle,
on behalf of the judges, with a handsome
Bible, amid the applause of the assembled
throng.
Mr. George F. Cahill. president of the as
ISOLATION, presided, and called upon the
Rev. Joseph NJ. Hudson Of New York to
offer prayer. Then, after the rendition of
an organ solo. Gounod's 'Sanctus," by
Prof. Wilbur F. DaIes. Mr.. Cahill explained
the character and purposes of the league.
The four contestants last evening did par
ticularly WELL their efforts commanding the
earnest attention of the audience, and be-
ing frequently interrupted by applause.
There were six judges selected to pass upon
the work of the competitors-Prof Julian
o. Hall, Prof M. w. Harrington and Prof
l.. b. Hall, who judged the efforts to
thought and composition, and Senator j.
H. Kyle. DR.. c. A. Stakely and DR.. F. ].

the orators, Senator Kyle making known
the decision of the judges in very pleas
ant address. During the evening Miss Ida

acceptably, and Mr.. Edwin S. Tracy rem
dered De Beriot's Fifth Concerto upon the
