FEST IS ENDED.
New York Guests Of the Liederkranz
Are Taken 10 Farview Before
Going Home.

The Saengcrfest is at an end and the
genial German from visiting cities has
departed from Scranton. Yesterday was
excursion day" and about 1000 persons
congrcgated at altitudinous Farview.
Few such gatherings have been at this
popular resort.
Four trains left Scranton. the first at
so Il. IN. and the last at o'clock y. IN
ON the way up delegations from Carbon
dale were taken aboard and at the park
the Honesdal. I.iederkranZ. numbering
several hundred. met the Scrantonians
and their New York visitors. Wilkes
Barr" was also represented In the
thrnng.
Immediately after arriving at the
park the crlcbraters devoted themselves
To suciability. Formal introductions
were sometimes used, but the general
rule was to ask, where are you
FROM" and to clasp hands meanwhile
And Song was Queen Of the day. The
SchubertS sang themselves hoarse and
the Wilkes Barre, Carbondale and
Honesdale people endeavored every mo-
ment to show that there are some sing
ing voices in Pennsylvania also. Bauer's
band was present and did its part of the
musical diversion.
The ride over the Gravity tended to
end the SaenGerfest with a pretty de-
highland it did. When the last train
had arrived in Scranton the visiting
| Germans were given an informal fare
well. and at 1920 o'clock last night the
special train over the Delaware and
hudson and I.ehigh Valley roads began
its journey for New York. carrying with
it the Schuberts. all of whom were tired
with the round of enjoyment.
Several of the New Workers stayed in
Scranton over night. These will leave
for home today. The Scranton Lieder-
kranz has won itself reputation rs an
entertainer by this stroke of the past
| few days.

"SOWiNG THE WIND"
Was the Seasons First Performance
at the Academy.

Sowing the Wind" one OF the best
of modern moral dramas. was the open
ing play of the season at the Academy
of Music. yesterday afternoon and even
ing. Both performances We're thorough
ly enjoyed. The evening audience was
so large that scores could not procure
seats. The new prices for seats tended
to increase the attendance and at the
evening production every seat was oc-
cupied and the gallery was n mass of
color.
Sowing the Wind is pretty tale.
It touches upon one of the live topics
of social discussion and attempts to
solve the great problem of circumstan-
tial birth. a woman dies, and her
daughter afterward loves and is loved
by the son of a man who, after persist
emily opposing the match, discovers that
he is striking at his own daughter. Miss
Maud Edna Hall, as "RoSamond," the
motherless girl. is an actress whose art
is attuned to tears. The best tribute of
her work yesterday was in the plaudits
of the affected auditors. Others in the
cast whose efforts merit mention are:
Miss Marian Chylders, Herbert Il. Sears,
j. Edwin Brown, Marshall Stedman,
and Walter Green.
