At Mendelssohn Hall yesterday after
noon Heinrich Meyn and Jean Gerardy

in a smaller auditorium he can be as inter-

Mr.. Meyn, whose voice Is by no means
remarkable, but When subdued agreeable,
sang groups of songs ranging over a long
period: from Secohi to Won Fielitz. The
latter's Am ersten Tag des Males" and
Rubinstein's -Asra" we're lone more in

been sitting and had difficulty in extri-
eating himself. Walsh's hair was singed

and gas brackets in the vault were twisted
out Of place and the steel walls were bulged
out. Books and papers partly burned

tinued as usual, as the damage done was
