an event with the music lovers OF Wash

seats.
The feature of the concert was the in
Grs,.rtlon OF the pianola as an accom-
pa.is'. Since the programme was issued
week ago many people have doubted the
ability OF the pianola to play the piano
part in that magnificent quintette of

is removed from the minds OF those who
were fortunate enough to hear the artis-
tic rendition OF this wellknown compost
tion by the RakT1ann Quartette aud the
pianola, at which Mr. Herbert Higgin-
bottom presided.
The programme from the first to the
last number must be considered as one
OF the most enjoyable heard in Washing
ton this season, and there is no doubt
that Mr.. Higginhottom thoroughly sue
ceeded in convincing his audience that
the piaDola possesses real artistic merit

deGed. demonstrating the wonderful aud
rare technique that the composer pos
sessed and intended to be put into it,
Other numbers that drew forth much
applause were the aria from Samson
and Delilah. My Heart at Thy Sweet

LITERARY NOTES.

Probably the last literary work done
by President Roosevelt before the assas.
sination Of President Mckinley raised
him TO the chief executive Office OF the
United States. was the preparation OF
an article on William III. Taft. governor
OF the Filipines. This article was writ
ten in August, and appears in The Out
look Of September 81. II is particularly
noteworthy, not only as cordial appre-
citation OF Governor Taft's remarkable
personal qualities. but as in a measure
foreshadowing President Roosevelt's
future policy with regard to the Fill
pines, and as giving strong expression to
his personal views on the relation Of the
United States to their island posses
sions. (s3 a year. The Outlook com.
