If counsel for the defense can make
out the case which was outlined at the
trial of Sheriff Martin and his deputies,
at Wilkesbarre, there will be. some evil
dence with which the public has not
been thoroughly acquainted, to excuse
and even justify the shooting at Lat
timer I'VE expect a verdict of ac-
quittal' were the words of Lawyer
Ferris He asserted that when Sheriff
Nj went forward alone to meet the
strikers five or six pounced upon him,
showed him into ditch, beat him and
thrust revolvers in his face, and one
man struck at him with a knife. The
sheriff freed himself and snapped his
revolver at the strikers but it did not
go off. Then a striker knocked him
down. A shot was fired by somebody
in the mob and it was followed by an
other and then by three close together.
Next came a volley from the deputies,
and the mob was dispersed. The firing
did not last more than half a minute.
BY whom the order to fire was given,
the defense does not profess to know,
but Mr.. Ferris says it came none too
soon, for the head of the column had
ruehed up to within Is feet of the sheriff
when the mob was repulsed. This is the
summary of the defense. Evidently,
there was reason for the suspension of
popular verdict

Mr.. Arthur J. Bassett, pianist. Like the
people of Shakspere's world-stage, this
nall mas its exits and its entrances. and
they are devious, but there is no disput-
ing that it is a good music room. There
is a saying: "Train up a child in the
way he should go, and when lle is old
he will not depart from it," If you
chain up chair, would the result be
equally permanent? A number Of ladies
who unexpectedly found themselves sit
ting on the floor, might be interested in
the answer to this conundrum. There
was full house, and perhaps all would
be interested in it.
The quartet is composed of four mem
bers Of the Boston Symphony Orches-

for two years. and they play well This
is not to say that they excel IN finesse
and refinement or that their ensemble.

These are qualities that are acquired

trained to perfection in a day. Long
association and constant practice ARE
necessary to attain these results. But
the quartet play with a spirit, they get
for the most part a good tone their ex-
ecution is commercially free from
scratching; such lack of unity as there
is, is apparent only in the details, and
does not affect the sum total; while the
performance of the individual members
Of the quartet is ample guarantee of
their expert musieianship. Mr.. Ondri-

tone is full and strong

Mr.. Bassett played the Chopin bar
carolle in a manner that suggested au-
thority and proved his command of
piano technique. He has grown in vigor
and, at the same time in that quality
of repose which begets certainty and
belongs to the finished musician. With
Messrs. Ondricek and Schulz he played
the allegro and andante from Christian
Sinding's D major trio, op. 23 This
music has strength, originality and
beauty, and it was read in a highly in
teresting manner. Mr.. Bassett was es-
pecially happy in preserving a judicious
balance between the piano and the
string parts. All in all, this was a de-
lightful concert, as the applause abun-
dantly testified, Messrs. Ondricek and
Schulz were recalled several times after

The eight hundred applicants for the

Of the popular eagerness TO enlist come
from other recruiting stations. and even

CUSTOMERS AND THEIR DRESSMAKERS

So was an excellent opening piece, to
which the quiet beauty and graceful
charm of the andante from Mr. Chad
wick's first quartet was an admirable
foil This latter was exquisitely played.
Messrs. Ondricek and Schulz gave a
brilliant Interpretation of the Vieux-
temp-Servais fantasy on airs from Les
Huguenots,' and a very pretty exhibi-
ton of virtuosity. though the piece it
self had no obvious claim to place in
such a program. Haydn's quartet, op.
64 No. 8, in D major, was simply deli
cious. The cheerfulness and perspicuity
of Haydn are as refreshing as a cool
mountain breeze in a dry and thirsty
land, after all the turmoil, the storm
and the stress of furious, complicated
and overloaded modern music, though
there was nothing of that character on
this particular program. The Haydn
quartet was played with enthusiasm,
and with something like abandon in the
perpetuum mobile sort of finale. There
We're delicacy and refinement, too, when

Rear-Admiral Jouett thinks the
heavy coast defense monitors are the
most powerful and best fighting ships
in the navy" and believes that "one of
them could whip any two Of the heaviest
battleships afioat" AS in the case of the
sinking of the British battleship Vic
toria, the loss Of the Maine has raised
very serious questions as to the practi-
cal value of the big floating forts. The
torpedo feet seems at present to be the
favorite of those who criticise the battle
ships, and England's increasing strength
in this arm of the naval force is not
without its significance.

The report that Spain had alienated
from the United States and secured for
herself virtual alliance with most of
the Spanish-American republics, is still
further discredited by dispatches from
Mexico and the South American capi-
tails, In addition to Mexico, Bra
zil and Venezuela, which were
admitted to pe friendly to us, there
are sufficient assurances from others.
Neither Argentina nor Chill would have
anything to do with such an alliance
as was reported. Nicaragua is with
us. and Peru apparently may be as
sumed to be in the same position There
was an air of inherent improbability
about the story, in the first place, and
the inquiries made seem to emphasize
this with all needed force.
