gramme, Mr.. Frederic Archer the distin-
guished organist who is to appear at the

day night, says:
I'm order to minister to higher require
ments, the first portion of each recital has
been devoted TO compositions specially
written for the organ, the works of Bach
and other classicists having been inter-
spersed with higher productions of the
French and other modern schools. The
remainder of the selections have been
transcriptions of orchestral and miscel-
laneous works within the comprehension
Of ALL
This explains the policy pursued in ar
ranging the selections to be given Monday
