AT the beginning of the tenth season
of chamber concerts by the kneisel
quartet few words in regard to the
history of this organization may be OF
some interest to the public.
When Mr. Henry l.. Higginson en-
gagged Mr.. Franz Kneisel as leader of
the Boston Symphony orchestra he, at
the same time, asked him to form an
organization for the performance of
chamber music
In November of the year 1885 the pub
lie career of the Kneisel quartet began,
when it originally announced series
| of concerts to be given at Chickering
| hall, Boston. The opinions Of the press
| and the public in regard to the per
| formances of the master compositions
of chamber music by the quartet were
so favorable that the interest of very
large circle OF music lovers was at
| tracted to their concerts.
The next season the audiences grew
steadily in number, and soon the quar-
tet extended its field to the principal
cities of the United States and Canada;
/ and up to the present time the organi-
cation has given the remarkable total

VIEWS OF TOM WALLER.
Says Mckinley Will Sweep the Country
To-day


Says Mckinley Will Sweep the Country
To-day.
New London, Nov Eek Governor
Waller who returned from stumpIng
tour in Michigan late last night, said
to-day that mis- trip west only con-
firmed his previous belief that McKin-
ley will sweep the country tomorrow.
The ex-governor returned home
sooner than he expected to when he
started on the tour. This was due to
the fact that he was overworked. He
was compelled while in Michigan to
make speeches all day long and at
night, and the exertion required ex-
hausted him.
He says that Michigan will be surely
found in the republican column, but
the majority will not be SO great as 1t
should be because the nominee of the
| republicans for governor in that state
Is not a popular man by any means.
His personal unpopularity will have the
effect of reducing McKinley's majority.
! Speaking of Connecticut, the ex-gov-
| ernor said that the republicans are
sure to win. He also said that he was
sorry the gold democrats of the state
had not nominated representatives In
every town. He was a little bit afraid
that failure to do this might be the
cause Of some gold democrats voting
for free silver democrats who are run
ming for the general assembly. He
said that he would be as much OPP
posed to a gold democrat voting for a
silver democrat, even for the general
assembly, as he would be to his sup
porting the state or national ticket.
