on the great violinist, at his apartments in
the Baldwin Hotel, last Friday afternoon.
They were courteously received, and at
their hosts request Miss FEEDER played
Mendelssohn's Concerto Ysaye became
enraptured over the performance and pro-
nounced it as fine in execution as he had
ever heard from as young performer.
He accompanied Miss FEEDER on the
piano, and when the piece was finished he,
with that impetuosity common to genius,
insisted that the young lady accompany
him back to Brussels and become cele-
brated virtuoso.
He characterized her playing as sublime.
1t had the fire and soul of genius.
Mrs. FEEDER had long since made plans
for having her daughter finish her musical
education in Berlin, but such an offer from
the great Ysaye was not to be overlooked.
He-said he would place Miss Feder directly
| under the chaperonage of his wife, and
| that she should receive one lesson week
| from him.
On learning that N. Landsberger had
| been Miss FEEDERS local instructor, Ysaye
| Immediately called on the former, and the
| two spent some time in discussing the rare
ability of the young pupil. He also pre-
sented Mr.. Landsberger with a handsome
souvenir, somewhat similar to that which
Miss FEEDER received from him. The latter
is pen-and-ink sketch, in dainty frame,
of the first bar of Mendelssohn's "Con-
certo," with an autograph sentence from
the writer in French.
Miss FEEDER and her family are honored
and delighted by the high compliment
paid her skill as violinist, as well as by
the rare opportunity offered for the perfec-
ton of her musical education under such
eminent tutelage.
II will make you grand performer"
said Ysaye. .'You shall be my especial
pupil, and in few years you will astonish
the world"
Therefore Miss FEEDER will study for the
stage-that is, not in the accepted sense of
the term, but with motives of a purely
artistic nature. She will go to Brussels in
stead of Berlin, and become favorite and
! special pupil of the great master.
Misses Grace and Adaline FEEDER are to
graduate from the medical department of
| the State University in July, and it is the
plan of their parents as modified that they
shall accompany Miss Cora to Brussels.
They will probably leave for Europe the
first of August.
Miss Cora FEEDER is 19 years of age and is
at present pupil of the High School.
Besides being musician of unusual abil-
lty she possesses rare talents. She has
painted a number of fine pieces, among
them being one in full length of herself
with her favorite instrument in her hands,
which has been complimented in the
highest terms by local artists

FAMINE THREATENS IT.
The City and County Hospital
Is Now a Helpless
MendiCant.
SUPPLIES ARE NEARLY GONE,
DR.. Titus Received Small Supply
Of Medicines, but Food Is
Growing Scarce.

DIR. Titus, Superintendent of the CITY
and County Hospital. has not appealed to
the public in vain. Yesterday he received
$40 worth OF drugs in response to an appeal
made by him through the press. The
drugs received were just enough to last
through the day. They were given by
Root & Co., GA Howard street, and were
assorted with skill.
But medicines and materials for banda
ges are not the only things that DR.. Titus
needs for the care of his many patients.
After next Wednesday, if the Supreme
| Court does not decide the question of tax
levy in accordance with the needs of the
| City, there will be very light diet in the
City and County Hospital.

| next Wednesday," said DR.. Titus yester-
day, "but what can happen after that is
something beyond my ability to say. !

butcher who provides us with mutton to
bring in his usual semi-weekly supply.

"They are in very precarious condi-

but in the other lines of groceries we have
not enough to last this week. AS I have
already stated, if the Supreme Court does
pot give US relief we will be in state of

and helps US out in substantial manner.

Peter and the Keys,

Rev. f. L. Higgins delivered a sermon yester.
day morning at the Swedenborgian Church on
OFarrell street, near Webster, from a text in
Matthew vi:15-19, which speaks of Peter and
the rock on which Christ would build his
church, and where the Lord said to Peter, "I
will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom
OF heaven, and whatsoever tnou shalt bind on
earth shall be bound in heaven, and whatso-
ever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in
heaven" 1t was the evil in himself, which if
Peter bound it on earth would be bound in
heaven, and the good affections, which if loosed
on earth should be loosed in heaven, for the
earth means the natural degree of mans mind,
The binding of the evil in the work of regen-
Grafton is in fact the loosing of the spiritual,
and vice versa.

| joining in until the whole is swelling into
grand musical finale.
| Every song was heartily encored, the
singers good humoredly responding to
each call.
| The first number on the programme last
night was Codina's march, "Lacatecas, y
| followed by a composition by Rossini, and
| Bellini's 1.-THE Pirate" Senon Libornio
| gave saxophone solo entitled "Liliuo-
kalani," which was so well played he had
to respond to a second and third call.
| Later in the evening Libornio favored
| the audience with another saxophone solo
called ''Keoni Ko," that was also well
received.
| OF the native songs, probably the best
was ''Lei Lehna" (The Blossom OF Hilo).
| This piece was so well rendered that the
| singers were forced to repeat it twice.
| The evenings programme rounded up
| with lot of instrumental selections, in
which medley by Brooks called Boston
| Bake was the favorite.
| Senior Lebornio seeing that the native
songs are greatly appreciated has deter
| mined to add one more to the regular pro-
gramme. Tonight there will be four
native songs, which, if the singers are as
| accom- modating as usual, will probably be
| increased to eight before the evening is
| over In speaking of Hawaiian music
| last night after the concert, Senior Lebornio
said:
| 1.-The Hawaiian melodies are very SIM
| liar to the Spanish, being generally of a
soft, gentle character, though we have
some war songs that are fiery enough
Our airs and songs, mean those that we
are singing here, are all composed by the
| natives. As an art or science Hawaiians
| know little or nothing of music.
Everything with us in the musical line
comes in the nature of an inspiration in
which no set rule or style is followed. We
| sing song because we feel it. Music as
| an art has with US no literal foundation.
"Among our native instruments is one
called uliuli, which is made from fruit
| common in Hawaii. The instrument is
| hollow and the music comes from little
| rock placed inside. We use it simply as
an accompaniment to Song. There is
| also another peculiar instrument called
hokiokio. It is really a flute, though the
natives use the nose instead of the mouth
| when playing it,
The following programme is announced
| for tonight.
March, Volunteer" (Boettger); overture,

CHARMED THE AUDIENCE,
The Hawaiian Band Plays to a
Crowded House With
Success.
Senior Libornio Has Something In
tereSting to Say About
Hawaiian Music.

Sweeter music than that rendered by the
Hawaiian National Band at Metropolitan
Temple last night is not often heard in San
Francisco.
The auditorium was crowded and the
audience evidenced their appreciation in a
manner that was inspiring, even if it did
tax the lung capacity of the aceommo-
dating foreigners.
The most delightful part of the pro-
gramme, however, was to be found in the
native songs. Although unintelligible, SC
far as words go, the music was plainly
there, and that was all the audience cared
for. Their weird chants generally open ur
with a solo, accompanied by the flute, the
piccolo and the violin, the chorus gradually

UDELL STRIKES BACK.
He vigorously Answers Epithets by
General Warner of the BIZ
metallic Party.

General Warner of the BIZ
metallic Party.
Alva Udell, the secretary of the State
Silver League, has removed his headquar-
ters from Los Angeles to this City and in
tends to wage the most aggressive kind of
warfare against the adherents of the gold
standard.
incidentally he will endeavor to en-
phasize the opposition of the league to
General A. J. Warner, the chairman of the
executive committee of the American BIZ
metallic party.
A few days ago dispatch criIiciZing
Udell was sent out over the country
through the Associated Press from Colfax
Wash, where General Warner is visiting
his brother, c. III. Warner, prominent
Democratic politician. 1t made General
Warner call Udell t'crank" and an ssan-
archist."
Mr.. Udell and the league have gone on
record as protesting against the forcing of
Congressman Joseph c. Sibley's candida
ture upon the bimetallists for President for
next years campaign. This may explain
the reason for the circulation of General
Warmers utterances. The dispatch also
states that Udell had threatened to de-
nounce General Warner and the Sibley
movement generally. In reply, Udell
stated yesterday:
made no such threat, simply told Warner
what our probable action would be. Our party
organized in December last, and Warner put
up scheme to capture the movement by
holding self-constituted caucus in February,
and has declared himself dictator, by what
rightwe cannot discover. We hold his letter
dated the 9th of April, asking us to recognize
his committee as the head OF the movement,
and requesting our committee to act as the
State executive committee for California. We
protested against his forcing Mr.. Sibley upon US,
and forthwith he tried by insane and con-
temptible methods to destroy us and build up
movement of his own.
By resolutions sprung at a meeting at San
Francisco, he asked Governor Budd to disor-
ganize the Democratic party that honored
Budd with the Governorship, in vain effort to
get the Governor committed to the Sibley
movement Failing to SO gain his point, he
now denounces us as cranks and anarchists, as
every gold bug cuckoo ana corporation hireling
names every person who criticizes dishonest
methods. Our report and resolutions speak for
themselves, and brand his epithets as tissue
OF ialsehoods We deal with principles, and
not with men.
We speak well of Mr.. Sibley, but Warner is
beneath our official notice. When he resorts
to personal abuse of men whose cooperation
ne has solicited, he brands himself as failure

VARLEY WAS VIGOROUS.
Some Strong Things Said by the Re.
vivalist at Central Methodist
Church

The English revivalist, Rev. Henry Var
ley, said some things at the Central
Methodist Episcopal Church, on Mission
street, last night that fell like sledge-ham-
mer blows upon the big audience that
filed all the available space there.
Three religious sinners" he chose to
illustrate the evil Of the disobedience and
that of rejecting the means of grace offered
to transgressors. These were Cam, who
murdered his brother because Abel's sacrl-
fee of a slain lamb was accepted and his
Balaam, the venal prophet, who twas will
ing to sell his people, Israel. for gold"
and Korah, the presumptuous demagogue,
who considered himself just as good as
Moses. He alluded to the sin of disobedi-
ence in the following vigorous manner:

The LiIIiputianS Score a Tri-
umph on Their Opening
Night.
New Attractions at the Different
City TheaterS for This
Week.

A giant walked down the aisle of the
Baldwin Theater last night. He is feet
10 inches in height and weighs 412 pounds.
His nativity is Minnesota and his age is p
years. He has hand the size of ham,
while the weight of his foot is sufficient to
crush to death any ordinary policeman
falling in his path. And this is the person
who stalks across the stage and exchanges
compliments with the Lilliputian' 8
Humpty Dumpty. who is just about big
enough to get lost in collar-box.
This unusual spectacle is only one of the
many that come and go in the procession
of novelties which the famous band of lit
tie comedians have brought with them to
San Francisco after an absence of two
years.
The house was packed, and a perpetual
flow OF good humor showed how all enjoyed
the performance.
The travels of Pantaloon and Humpty
Dumpty are full of adventure, novelty and
excitement, while the ballets, dancing and
tableaux are beautiful and realistic. The
costumes are especially effective in point
of color and arrangement, while the stage
setting, particularly in the diamond
scenes and ballet Of precious stones and
metals, is an artistic triumph. The ribbon
throwing by ballet dancers was new
feature, and was very pretty.
Captain Swift" nigh-class comedy
