GAY WORLD Is PLANNING
Hostesses Busy Arranging for Din
ners, Balls and Cotillions.
President Cievela nd = High Opinion OF

ofYeE.Kn0wnw nwashtngtonian Ms.

Fashionable hostcsses are most Interested
just at present in plans for the winter en-
tertaining. Now all arrangements are
being made for the dinners, cotillions, balls,
eakfasts luncheOns and teas a which the
people of the gay world will disport them
selves during the coming wintfr.
TIE caterers and those well informed say
that there is somewhat Of a revolution in
the decking of dinner tables. That. the one
color scheme of decoration, where the can
dies, ribbons, bon -bons and creams were
all matched in shade, will give way to con-
trast in the colors.
The idea, in fact, is TO have on dinner
or refreshment table as many colors as
make war with each other on the fashion
able hats Of today. At Mrs. LOgan's tea
the other day this new idea was carried
out with very pleasing results. Mrs. Tucker,
who is very clever about such things and
keeps thoroughly posted, expressed her
self as being much in favor of the new order.
The women who have come from Eu-
rOpc-and, indeed, nearly every woman IN
the smart Set seems to have been over this
sunimer-havc come home not only rich In
ideas, but have actually brought boxes of
pretty things for the dinner tables and CO.
tillion fayors, which have enriched Uncle
Sam by the payment OF heavy duties.

tablts Set in Washington perhaps is that oil

THE REFUNDINd BOND HESS

The city council have made one of the
worst messes on record with the refund
ing bonds. A firm of lawyers in Boston.
whose opinion is considered as final as
supreme court decision, have held that
the issue is not marketable. and mean.
while SIG, 900 have been appropriated by
the council and paid for bonds that fell
due May 1st, though the auditor, it 10
said. reported that none would be due
until August. This payment. it is held
in some quarters, in itself would invali-
date the securities. The point is also
made that if this issue is failure the act
of March 25th will prevent another cleo
tion and issue of bonds, and the city will
rate of interest. The taxpayers would
like to know who is responsible for this
wretched series of blunders.
The bonds were sold at a good pre-
MUM, amounting to something like $50, :
600, but II the sale is declared off, it is
stated that they can. be sold at par, the
buyer taking his chances of their being
valid. Under the circumstances this would
not appear to be bad way out OF the
mess, though it is a matter that REQUIRES.
thorough investigation and consideration.
Meanwhile City Attorney Dunn is ap.
parently done for in New York, as the
most urgent kilograms to him have not
received an answer. Can it be that he

nUSICAL NOTES

1t is not often that the anticipa tions
aroused py extravagant praise are real
lied, but last night NJ. Eugene Ysaye, the
eminent virtuoso and accomplished art,
ist. exceeded, if anything, what had been
expected OF him. His programme was
choice and his performance above criti.
cism.
The opening number. Grieg sonata,
weighted with plaintive melancholy. even
in allegro movements. yet full of the
whimscality OF treatment that marks all
that composers work, was so magniti-
Gently interpreted in all it's varying
moods, that Mr.. Ysaye would have won q
much more critical audience than was
present last evening: and he established
without question his absolute mastery OF
technique.
In the Vieuxtemps fantasie-appassion
alta which followed. the intonation and
modulation were exquisite, the sentiment
magnetic in the extreme.
In direct contrast ana as purely classic
in its simplicity and directness was the
reading or the Bach Sarabande and Gigal
with its clean accuracy of touch; while
as foil to that i'll turn, the Grail song
from Parsifal, throbbing with color. and
deep, rich, vibrant tone.
That was too much for the audience,
and insistent applause won for them an
encore, the prize song from Meistersinger.
that was also divinely beautiful. and
played con amore.
NJ. Ysaye's last number was the mad
denlng Hungarian Czarda by Sarasate,
and Sarasate himself plays it not one
whit better: the true gypsy spirit was
there, the unexpected turns; the fiery
staccato succeeded by legato tnat is like
the vail OF a lost soul. But if NJ. Ysaye is
Hungarian when he plays gypsy music,
"a a n oil JS..t "a ha
plays. He has personality that is full
of strong individuality, yet 1t is always
lost utterly for the time being in the
composer whose work he is interpreting.
His manner is full of repose; there is no
gyrating or pyrotechncs in his bearing.
simply an occasional closing of the eyes,
a rafting of the eyebrows, Is all that is
evinced in the most passionate or diff
cult passages; yet his firm touch, fexi-
ole fingers. and exquisite bowling make
whatever he essays seem chiid's play,
and after the long and exacting pro-
gramme last night he gave an encore to
the last number OF mazourka by Ear
zicki.
M. Lachaume. the pianist, is all
that could be desired as an ac-
companist. and if his solo work suf-
fers little by comparison it is not
strange. His numbers we're Chopin
scherzo, which he played brilliantly;
Schumann's au soir that was given
dainty and delicate treatment, and the
eleventh Hungarian rhapsodie by Lizst,
for which an encore was called. and
GODDARD mazourka was accorded and
proved one of NJ. Lacbaume's most at
tractive numbers.
The house was absolutely and literally
packed with an audience in which were
most of the musicians and many, indeed
ly ALL the cultured and fashionable
people of the city.
Tue evening was triumph in every
way. and this afternoon and tonight
promise to be repetitions OF the same
kind.

ART NOTES

At 2:30 o'clock yesterday afternoon a
collection of paintings by Mr.. Albert
jerks was sold at auction in the Blanch-
ard Fitzgerald hall. Mr.. jerks has been
long and well known IN Los Angeles art
circles. The canvases displayed embraced
great variety of subjects.
Figure pieces and landscapes there
were and still life, fruits and flowers.
Among the best were some exceptionally
clever examples OF still life that were
realistic to degree. One, piece OF dull
red silk brocade in which the texture OF
the fabric was most natural and the
lights. perspective OF folds, so admirably
managed as to give mblance of the
real article draped over the frame.
Another extremely well handled canvas
represented section of wall surface from
which the plaster was knocked Off show
ing the lathing beneath. with most
natural nail hole just above it.
Again, above the sketch of woman's s
head, there dropped loop of blue satin
ribbon that was startling in it's natural
ness, and leaning against the frame a
hand magnifying glass. The coloring,
textures and management of light In all
tho above examples showed a com prehen
sive knowledge OF handling and treat
ment.

do not know whether any plans for

included in the project. If not, the busi-
