AMUSEMENTS.

PHILHARMONIC CLUB CONCERT
Genuine regret was expressed last night
over the close of the series of concerts by
of which was given at the Washington
Club. Four concerts have been given, and
1t might be said that each one was better
than the other, eliminating in last nights
program, which was received with the en-
thusiasm 1t deserved. Chamber music
seems to be growing in appreciation every
year, which Is as it should be, since the
best works of the most famous composers
are of this class of music. No one has done
more to further 1t in this city than Mr.. and
Mrs. Lent, Mr.. Rakemann and their asso-
ciates, who, last night, were Mr.. VIM. T..
Green, second violin. and Mr.. Joseph Finck-
ell, viola The program opened with the
string quartet in G major, by Robert
Stearns, a young Washington composer. 1t
was of great merit, showing that his
studies have been to good effect. That was
followed by the well-known variations from
the Kaiser Quartet by Josef Haydn. Schu-
bert's phantasie, for piano and violin, which
was heard here for the first time, appealed
more to the appreciation of a musician on
account of the technical difficulties than to
the qualification of the love of melody.
The greatest interest of the evening CEN
tered in Mr.. Lent's composition, Scenes
Champetre," of five movements, each OF
distinct merit and pronounced beauty. All
of Mr.. Lent's works are beautiful, and this
one was especially characteristic of the sub
jects, pastoraie, lie moulin. menuet, reVe
d'amour and barcarole. Robt. Schumann S

REMOVAL OF SNOW AND ICE
Draft of Bill Forwarded to Senator
Mcmillan.

Draft of Bill Forwarded to Senator
Mcmillan.
The District Commissioners have for
warded to Senator Mcmillan, chairman of
the Senate District committee, the draft
OF a bill to provide for the removal of snow
and ice from the sidewalks of the District.
and for other purposes. The proposed law
has been published in The Star, and the
Commissioners earnestly ask early and
favorable action on it.
The Commissioners explain that they sub
NIT it as substitute for the act Of March
2, 1897. the principal change proposed in
the new measure being the omission of the
penal liability imposed by existing law on
agents of owners of premises for neglect
to remove Accommodations Of snow or other
material from the sidewalks. This change,
they state, is rendered necessary by the
decision of the Court of Appeals, to the
effect that agents are not liable to prosecu-
ton under the act of 1907.
The Commissioners further explain that
clause has been added fixing six feet
as the minimum breadth of space from
which snow must be removed from the
sidewalks. and requiring the whole of side
walks of less width to be cleaned. Another
of the objects of the new measure, they
state, is to eliminate a number of verbal
inaccuracies contained in the present law.

STREETS AND AVENUES.
Board of Trade Committee Opposes
HOUSE Bill SO43,

A meeting of the committee on streets
and avenues of the board of trade was held
recently in the rooms Of the board. In the
absence of the chairman. Mr.. NJ. NJ. Parker,
Mr.. W. G. Henderson, the vice chairman.
presided There was a large attendance Of
the members, and subject that created
good deal of discussion was House bill bO43,
providing for the transfer of the land rec
ords of the city of Washington from the
office of the surveyor of the city to the
office of the commissioner of public build
ings and grounds, War Department.
The committee disapproved of the bill,
and adopted a recommendation that the
records relating to this city in the keeping
of the commissioner of public buildings and
grounds be transferred to the office of the
surveyor.
A subcommittee was appointed to confer
with the District Commissioners in regard
to the elimination of Florida avenue as the
boundary of the city, and also a subcom-
mittee to consider the matter of surfacing

STOPPING PLACE FOR CARS.
President Dunlop Advocates n Re-
turn to Old Custom.

Mr. G. T. Dunlop, president of the Capt.
tai Traction Company, recently wrote the
District Commissioners that many of the
patrons of the road have requested such
an amendment of the police regulations
as will permit street cars to stop on the
far side of intersecting streets. Such
change, says Mr.. Dunlop, would be not only
very gratifying to the people of the Dis
trict, but would also, in his opinion, re-
move a source of great annoyance to the
many strangers visiting here, who are. he
states, accustomed to cars stopping on
the far side of intersecting streets When
rapid transit was first introduced here, Mr.
Dunlop says, street cars stopped on the
far side, and he believes that return to
such a custom would be advisable.
Upon the recommendation of Captain
Beach, the Engineer Commissioner. the
matter has been referred to the coroner of
the District Of Columbia, with the request
that he inform the Commissioners whether
any accidents which have been considered
by him upon the question of the relative
safety Of stopping street cars on the near
or far side of intersecting streets. and that
he give them such Information as he may
have on the subject.

force. for reinstatement has been denied by
the Commissioners. The Commissioners are
of the opinion that the man had a fair
trial. and as his case was given much con-
sideratioD, and no additional testimony
has been submitted, they feel that the or
der should not be rescinded, especially as
his dismissal was, in the opinion of the
chief Of police, best for the interests of the
department. With his application for rein
