PRINCE AT LUNCHEON OF
CAPTAINS OF INDUSTRY"

New York. Feb. 27.-Billions Of capi.
tai were represented yesterday after
noon at the luncheon given by the
Captains of Industry" TO Prince
Henry. All the leaders of Wall street
were there, besides moneyed men
from Chicago. st. Louis and other dis
tant cities. The tables were spread
in the ball room on the third floor Of
Sherry's. To the prince and his party
were assigned o square table al one
side of a big room, the others being
arranged around it in crescent form
Fish nets were artisiically draped
from the ceiling. intertwined with
smilax and American Beauty roses.
while from the corridor was waited the
warblings of hundreds OF canary birds
hung in cages among the foliage.
Miniature electric lights in red shed
a soft glow over the scene A great
crowd gathered about the doors as the
guests were assembling and the po-
lice had their hands full in restraining
popular curiosity.
1t had been the aim of those who
gave the luncheon to conduct it in
every essential as though it was an
entertainment given in Il private resi-
dence. and It was explained that in
inviting the Captains Of Industry
an effort had been made TO select as
such guests only men who had done
something toward the progress and
prosperity Of the United States.
The menu cards were beautiful. and
are said to have been designed by ].
p. Morgan himself They were two
heavy sheets of white card board. held
together by ribbons representing the
German and American colors. They
bore the princes flag as admiral. the
Hohenzollern royal standard, with the
motto "Gott NIT uns, and the irterna-
tional code signal, you are welcome
to breakfast"
It was reported that 100000 was
to be spent on the anair-S3.OO0 a
plate-and notwithstanding the absur
dity of such figures. the Princess
Henry cabled here to the prince ask
ing him not to associate with such "a
senseless and harmful waste OF mon
ey.' and suggesting that instead the
millionaires give the money to the
many poor of New York as a nucleouf
for a prince Henry Home"

Kubelik Tomorrow Night.

The furore over Kubelik, the wizard vio-
linist is, perhaps, the most wonderful thing
in all the history of music. There have been
performers who have conquered one city. or
one country. and failed dismally in others.
kubelk, however, has won the admiration
Of all lands Europe fairly went wild over
him. and so great was the craze in London
that he could have remained there indefi-
nitely without exhausting his popularity.
The same tale Of him is told here. Mu-
scans rave over his technique. which is
something uncanny in its brilliancy. The
New York critics have exhausted their
vocabulary Of adjectives in praising him.
They haven't word Of fault-tindng. All
is laudation In the superlative.
Kubelik will give his only evening concert
in Washington at the Columbia Theater to-
morrow Sunday evening. and the event VIII
be one Of the most important in the citys
musical history Nomusical events have ever
attra cted more attention here. not only from
the devoted musicians. but from that large
segment Of society which always wishes to
do the proper social thing. To hear kuhe-
lik is the proper thing. Seats are on sale
at Sanders & Staymans. and kubelk will
play at this concert the famous Mendels-
sohn concerto, and numbers by Wienfawski,
RaZzin! and Paganini.

cessful effort in Capt Jinks" to reproduce
the atmosphere OF New York life in the
flush times that followed the civil war. 1t
made the "oldsters'' feel young again, and
it amused the youngsters to see how fool
ish their parents were. 1t is equally certain
that nothing was more gratifying to lovers
of the theater than the sudden prominence
attained by Miss Barrymore. She had been
held in high esteem for her family connec-
tions and was winning admirers for her
own good qualities, but the opportunities
given her In Capt. Jinks" shortened the
tedious process of becoming a prime ia
vorite. So Capt. Jinks' and Miss Barry
more were made as accepted, leading fea-
lures of theatrical diversion. The enter
tainment Is fantastic as the plays full

ficing in no degree the standard Mr.. Fitch
has set for himself as playwright.

Paderewski's Opera "Manru."

Paderewskis opera. "Manru.' was sue
cessfully produced at the New York Metro
poltan Opera House last night HIS VIZ
tuosity showed itself at the outset by his
treatment of the libretto-pedal. He clings
to details: the dramatic line is broken
he is master Of details in the technique
of ornamentation; he storms up and down
the whole keyboard Of human feelings
always observant of a correct polyphony
Of moods and voices. Even PadereWski )
virtuosity could not solve the odd blend
ing Of the Slavic art with the new Ger
man operate manner This contradlc-
ton found expression s'ngularly enough IN
the almost insurmountable difficulties which
arose where we naturally expected the song
ele ment. Paderewski's artistic energy, his
seriousness. his sentiment, never truant to
aesthetic nobility in a single measure, made
the expression sympathetic.
The great Polish pianist, while In this
country to be present at the production OF
his opera at the Metropolitan Opera House,
will give a few rec'tals. and the manage
ment of the Columbia have secured one. to
be given Wednesday afternoon. February

All who have seen the performance of
Ben Hur' at the National Theater agree
that Klaw Eranger have created won
derful stage pageant Gen. Wallace struck
the keynote of the intention of this enter
prising play-producing firm when he said, If
his words are correctly quoted: Il have
been trying to devise a play which any
Christian person, man or woman, might at
tend without violence to the conscience or
without shocking any principle I think
that has been accomplished, and may in
vite the whole Christian world to see this
performance" Every detail of the book,
with the exception of the crucifixion chap
ter, has been followed out exactly. as laid
down in Gen. w allace's fascinating romance
The authors text has been followed with
fidelity. The chariot race, the word picture
Of which charms all readers Of the book. is
reproduced with thrilling realism. The
eight horses concerned are driven at top
most speed In full view Of the audience.
amid a great uproar, and with a swiftly
moving ecyclorama Of painted figures re-
volving in an opposite direction from that
toward which the horses are headed When
the climax is reached by the crumbling
chariot Of MESSIAH and Ben Hur wins, the
stage crowd lifts up an exulting cry, in
which many Of those in the theater can
hardly refrain from joining. The curtain
rises on this beautiful spectacle at o'clock
to the minute. upon the tableaux of the
Star of Bethlehem. which is one Of the
most imposing scenes in the play. The
house Ia. darkened for this tableau, and no
one is seated until it is finished. There is
no overture.
The engagement positively ends next Sat

The demand for Ben Hur' seats has
