through the aid of Meg, the wife Of
Tredgold. Unwittingly the worthy
woman tells her husband of the adven-

Franz Ondricck, the Bohemian violinist
Chicago and St Louisiana the nau-
steal public of both cities have agreed
that the Endorsement given him by
the New York Philharmonic society af-
ter his initial appearance was fully
justified.
In point Of fact, musicians and crit
les all over the country are beginning to
understand that this man is a perfect
master of the violin and that he pos
sesses technical and tempermental quail
tiles which make him more interesting
than the average virtuoso. His personal
magnetism, which is strong and com
pelling, has had something to do with
the popularity he has attained here
and in the old world; but there is some
thing more. 1t is the unwonted scope
the unusual breadth, the exceptional
daring, Of the man as violinist.
Whether it be Beethoven, Dverak
Bruch, Mendelssohn, Paganini, Spehr,
Wieniawski, Vieuxtemps, Lale or Raz
zini, he has the same strength the same
fuency, the same perfection of tone
the same complete mastery over the
battling instrument which has been his
all since early boyhood.
In respect to technique he is as re-
markable as he is IA his repertoire.
He never stoops to any of the catchy
and popular tricks which characterize
the mountebank rather than the art
ist. Everything he does is true and Of
the highest artistic quality. This is
especially discernible in his phrasing
which shows sympathy and intelli-
gence and results in the perfect express
sion of the composers motif, so that in
the matter Of accurate intarpreta ton
he leaves nothing to DE desired. IN

on lines which are in direct violation

"A. Herne, intended it should be, simple,
unconventional, real, and as such the
piece will long continue to gladden.

farm, and introducing for his dramatis
personae, a handful of half-farmer
half-fishermen folk and a quintette of
children. There is nothing wonderful
in all this, yet Mr.. Herne has sue
ceeded in fashioning out of such COM
monplace material one of the most
interesting, most impressive, and at
the same time most picturesque plays
known to the drama. In selecting the
people Of Maine, the author has fur
ni3hed many unique and original char
acters, and their artistic Interpretation
leaves nothing to be desired
Uncle Nathaniel, the veteran hero of
this play, is a marvellous character
creation. His life has been as color
less as the gray cliffs of his native
state. 1t has been one long subjuga-
ton to his younger brother; toll and
suffering have marked and msrred him
physically, but his conscience is as
free and pure from evil thoughts as
that of little child. In marked con-
trast to Nathaniel is his brother Mar
tin. This brother is good-natured
enough when let alone and permitted
to have his own way, but when crossed
or worried, he shows q sullen DISPOSE
uon and nasty temper. Another clever
character sketch is the grass-widower
Joel Gates. His sufferjngs have almost
unbalanced, his mind, and his neighbors
forgetting that he as a heavy cross to
bear, are none too kind to him, with
the exception of Uncle Nathaniel. Then
comes the good-natu housewife. Ann
Berry, with her constant repetitions:
the two young people who are in love
with each ether, Sam and Helen; then
Josiah Blake, and the little children.
