"valse de Concert No. H. by Mosz-
cowski, on the pianola- Both these
numbers, which involve the most tre
mendous technical difficulties, were
easily deserving of the generous ap-
plause which they received.
Miss lola Barber next gave a violin
selection, "Fantasie," by De Beriot. 1t
is a piece full of the most charming
variations, and was well rendered by
Miss Barber. Miss Maud Kinney play
ed the accompaniment. The next num-
Der was La Campanella," by Paga-
nini-Liszt, played by Mrs. Francis Gay.
While Mrs Gay has possibly not had
the practice which Mr.. Hedemann has
had, her great natural musical talent
aided her in giving a beautiful rendi-
ton of this splendid piece of music
which has at all times been favorite
with the great performers, among 9TH
ers, Nine Teresa Careno, who very
often had II on her programs
Mr. Hedemann played two selections
of the Per Gynt Suite" by Grieg,
| "Suitra's Dance" and In the Hall OF
the Mountain King, Grieg's music,
which, like Ibsen's Per Gynt," has
fascinated the entire world with its
weird beauty, was exceedingly well
rendered.
Last of all. Mr. Hedemann played the
wedding March" and the ''Elfin Cho-
rus" from Midsummer Nights
Dream" by Mendelssohn. 1t was inter
esting to hear the pianola render these
pieces. which are so familiar to every
one, without depreciating their musical
value in the least.

auditorium could have afforded. Near
present and the evening was much en-
ioyed by them all.
The principal feature of the evening
was the performance on the pianola by
Mr.. Hedemann and others. The manner
in which Mr. Hedemann succeeds in
calling forth the most beautiful music,
often without the least suggestion of
any mechanical device, would indeed be
a revelation to the many who regard a
pianola as a sort of improved music
box.
While it of course must be understood
that IN pieces involving long sustained
melodies the pianola is not so very sue
cessful. it is in such pieces where a
rapid movement and a brilliant tech
nique are the essentials, that the value
of the instrument Shows itself. The
pianola thus gives an opportunity to
hear such concert pieces as can only
be played successfully by the most
talented professional performers, where
the technical difficulties are so great
that no amateur can master them. 1t
must be noted, however, that to render
such pieces with anything like the
charm which a performer on the piano
can give them, it is absolutely neces-
sary that the pianola player shall have
thorough understanding Of the music
and a most refined taste. The only aid
which the pianola can give him is that
it surmounts for him the purely tecnni-
cal difficulties. If the player has not

tive piece will sound as if it was ratified
off from mere mechanical device. Mr..
| Hedemann has done more to procure
! recognition for the pianola than any
! other man in Honolulu, and the per
| Torrance of last night must be reckon
! ed as his eliminating triumph
A glance at the program will also
show that the pieces selected are more
characteristic for solid classical worth
than for the prevailing popular tastes
MendeIssohn in music, like Longfel-
| low in literature, is appreciated but
ne is not in any way as fashionable
as the masters of the romantic school
and yet. even if Mendelssohn has no.

! certainly it was great pleasure t

GLASS MEN DISCUSS RULES.
Factory Regulations Occupied the
Attention Of Confer ence Yesterday.

Atlantic City. y. j.. Aug. Factory
rules continued today to occupy tile at
tention of the wage committee of the
National Green Glass Bottle Manufac-
turers' Association and the Green Glnss
Blowers Union. The entire morning
session was consumed in the discussion
of the working Of men in pairs and
threes on certain grades of bottles. Two
and three men are required to blow
some of the bottles. and ii has been the
custom to engage Il tending boy" ON
ware above twenty-four ounces. The
tending hoy" carries the glass from the
fire TO the blower.
The manufacturers committee today
made proposal to dispense with the
boys on bottles under thirty-two ounces
and employ another man on the work.
The blowers objected to this on the
ground that the labor is not sufficiently
renumerative, and that few men would
undertake to do the work for the small
wages paid.
No decision was reached and the rule
was again taken up at the afternoon ses-
sion.

When it Was Over Members Told
Conflicting Stories of Result.
Assessors Were Closeted
With Committeeman.

Members of the finance committee OF
City Council met behind closed doors
after the meeting of Council was al
iourned last night and spent an hour
and Il half on the question of appoint
ing three assistant assessors to aid III
the work of making Il complete new

told conflicting stories of the result OF
the meeting.

had been made, but would not be N
nonnced for several days. He also said
that another meeting of the committee
would be held before the next regular
meeting of Council.

for amy specified time, but would work
by the day, and work on the new as
sessment would be begun next week.
Councilman Stwart member of the
committee, said nothing had been done at
the meeting.
President Blaine of Council and Mr.
Stewart, who are the Republican mem
bers Of the committee, have been op-
posing the appointments on the ground
that they could not be made legally by
resolution and that it would first be
necessary to provide by ordinance for a
new assessment.
City Solicitor Reinhardt had been ask
ed for an opinion on the question but
Mr.. Stewart said last night that moth
ing had been heard from him.
The Board Of Revision of Assessment
and Appeals met yesterday and decided
to authorize the making Of a new as
Scssment. Collectors and Assessors
Snyers and Mccall were closeted with
the committeeman at the meeting and
as the task set for them is large one,
