In no business conducted by private
individuals is the government of the
United States so directly concerned as
in the soliciting of patents. When an
jgnorant client gets the worst of his
lealing with an unscrupulous and tricky
patent solicitor he is apt to regard the
United States pa,cnt office as having
had a share in the business. Knowing
this, intelligent men in congress are
always on the alert to head off when
possible the tricky schemes resorted to
by some men who call themselves Soli-
citors of patents. One Of those schemes
is struck at by the bill introduced by
Senator Hansborough, making it unlaw-
full for any solicitor of patents to offer
an inventor premium or prize as an
inducement to him to pay his fee to
enter his invention in a so-caled com
petition.

THE REMENYI CONCERT.
Opening Event of the Fifth Annual
Star Course.

Remenyi, who knows so we'll how TO
take us away from the commonplace OF
life and transport us into a temporary
fairyland appeared last night before
large audience at the Young Mems Chris
tlan Association. which was quick 10 show
the great artist all manner of apprecia-
ton. IL was the opening of the fifth an
nual star course. and a most suspicious
occasion ii proved to be.
Remenyi shOne In three lights rathes
than one-namely. as performer. COM
poser, and last, but far from least, as
an example of industry, after whom seve-
raj superficial yiolinists might take pat
tern. Admirable as he was in the first and
second capacities, twas in the third, pro-
badly, that he proved most imposing, by
showing that, however remarkable was
his virtuosity when he first became known
here. he has not been above developing
his powers since then. Thus he teaches
a valuable lesson TO many another exc
cutant, who, with only one tenth of his
talents, is content TO carelessly drift
along quite ready. after one or two sue
cesses. to rest on his oars for the remain
der of his life.
But there is no resting where Remenyi
is concerned He continues TO study. des-
pite the eXacting demands of concert
work, and remains totally impervious TO
the almost hysterical admiration heaped
upon him. Could such a lesson be taken
to heart by some lazy members of his
profession, what joyous time the must
cal critics would have. No more weary
listening to focks OF ill-hedged violinists
and pianists. They would aiI be in school
again.
But TO return TO the concert. wherein
Remenyi had the welcome assistance or
Miss Louise NJ. Brehany, mezzo-soprano,
and Mr. William Sauvlet, pianist.
Remenyi played the andante and finale
from the violin concerto (Mendelssohn),
Nocturne I'm Il fiat Chopin Hungarian
melodies. composed by himself, and some
popular melodies transcribed by himself.
He was forced to respond TO many en-
cores.

played them all well, and Miss Brehany

OPERA FESTIVAL ORCHESTRA.
Full Rehearsal of Martha and La
SonnnmbuIa at the Academy.

One Of the most pleasing surprises In
the preparations for the forthcoming fes-
tival of grand opera has been the excel
lence OF the material in the Academy or
chestra. 1t was feared that the local or
ganization would not be able TO cope with
the difficulties OF the scores OF Martha"
and LA Sonnambua," and that musi-
clans would have to be engaged in Bati-
more, but this has been found quite I'M
necessary, and the orchestra is doing
really fine work.
There was a full rehearsal last night OF
both operas at the Academy, and they
were sung delightfully."- The difficulties
have been completely mastered and the
works are given with confidence. as well
as taste and discretion. Everything now
points to the unequiyocal success of the
undertaking.
