SCheel Has Increased His

The Strings at the Symphony Con-

by kiughardt.

On symphony nights Herr Scheel has
laieiy added TO the efficiency of his orches-
ira by augmenting the strings. This is 3
step in the right direction. for, particularly
la the ensembles of music of the more
modern type. they were not at first num-
erous enough to hold their own. Indeed,
there have been some forte passages when
the horns had things their own way, and
the strings were scarcely in it at all. That
was by no means the case last night, how
ever.
The programme began with the overture
to Joachim Rats drama, THE Thirty
Years War;" through which frequently
appears the theme Of Luther's maj site
hymn, Dies 1i2." Scheel several times
conducted this march here last season. and

The prelude To the third act of Wagner :

we'll as being we'll played, that the audi
Pnce persistently demanded an encore.
This Scheel resisted for the space of four
or i've minutes, emphasizing his refusal
by firmly shaking his head, but the audi
ence wanted more Wagner and knew how
to ask for him and see that il got him, so
in the end Schael gave way and sent for

Karl Grienauer was The next soloist.
His playing of the violoncello sOl0 in Rob-

was some Of the best work he has done
here. He was perfectly in tune, which,
in spite of his technique, has not invaIi-

MISSING BALLOTS.
Drunken Inspectors Failed TO Turn
Them In.

What became of the returns from about
fifteen precincts? That question consid-
erably exercised Registrar Evans yester.
day. They were precincts in which the
count had been completed On. Wednesday
night. The ballot-boxes had been sent in
by wagons, but there were no accompany
ing papers. and the Registrar could not tell
where those somewhat important docu-
ments were. Without them he could not
cast up the result. The inspectors who
should have brought them in had also
failed 10 make thsir appearance, and con-
siderable anxiety was expressed as 10 the
whereabouts OF the men VINO ought to have
the books.
Messengers were sent TO look for them.
Oscar Toll6 went out In the Western Addi-
ton and found one Inspector sitting in the
back part of a saloon. He was very, very
drunk, ana the bundle OF election papers
lay at his side. They were rescued and
taken TO the Registrars office.
1t is presumed that the missing papers
from other precincts had some such ex-
perlence. The vnteS had been counted. for
the newspaper bureau had obtained the
final results at the booths. The half
drunken inspectors had left the polling
places and something had happened to
them before they reached the new CITY
Hall. Late yesterday afternoon the books
from the following precincts were still
missing: Fifth of the Twenty-sightb,
Third ana Fifth of the Twenty-uinth.
