MUSIC.

Vladimir de Pachmann has returned once
more to the scene of his former trlumpns'
New York city, after an absence OF sew
eral years. He will come to st. Paul
for a concert Nov. IA, in the People
church Artists series. De Pachmann
will be the third of the series. During
his stay abroad he has been concertzing
through Europe playing in all the larger
cities of the continent, and spending the
last two years in London and Paris In
1898 he reappeared in London after an
absence of eight years. and though many
pianists had appeared in the meantime,
De Pachmann was greeted by audiences
that greatly outnumbered those VINO at
tended the appearances of other p1ansts
who made names for themselves while he
was taking a long and well deserved rest.
His artistic as well as financial success
was far beyond expectations. The press
and public alike were startled with the
sensuous beauty and soul Of his playing,
nothing had he lost during his long alb
sence; on the contrary he seemed, If
anything, greater than ever. He delighted
his hearers with compositions by Chopin,
and the critics in turn delighted In giving
to him the praise that they were unable
to bestow upon those who were less
fortunate with their Chopin interpreta-
tons. However, not alone were his
Chopin recitals greeted with enthusiasm
by his English audiences but his recitalS
on the works Of LisZt which were in
deed novelties even for an English audi
ence, were openly successful and had
to be repeated. vladimir de Pachmann
has been very prominently before the
public recently in connection with the
attempted assassination of NJ Labor, for
the reason that De Pachmann's former
wife is the present Nine Labori The
two children of M. and Nine. de Pach-
mann are being educated in Paris at. the
present time.
