FOR BENEFIT OF THE HOME.
Great Musical Feast to Be offered
Scrantonians.

For their annual benefit the Home
for the F'riendless has provided one of
the greatest musical feasts ever given
any community. This is what the Pitts
burg Post says of Kreisler:
Drawing luscious, flute-like tones
from magnificent Gagllano violin OF
date 17i0, Fritz Kreisler played himself
into most enthusiastic favor. Last year
he amazed with his marvellous, snowy
execution last night he charmed with
his matured musicanship, in which
perfected chaste technic, of course,
played It's part. For his principal num-
ber he chose the beautiful Beethoven
Concerto, which has music, pure and
undefied, laid into every bar, into every
individual note. And how Kreisler did
bring out this music in all its rounded,
plastic beauty! His musical conception
and insights have indeed matured as
tonishingly in a twelve month.
"In the second part of the programme
he played the Tartni Sonata, and here
again 1t was Il display of gloriously
compelling musicianship. OF encores
he was forced to give three, "Serenade
"Tambourin' and charm
ing, dainty number from Herberts
suite for cello. Flawless intonation,
marvellous facility in complex stopping,
trills and pianissimos, absolutely raw
ishing, and harmonics, crystal pure and
clear beyond compare-these We're few
of the achievements of this master vio-
liniSt"

COLLEGE SINGERS RENDER
MAGNIFICENT ORATORIO

Haydn's inspired oratorio The Gre
'ation," was rendered last evening be-
fore large audience at the August
ana college chapel by the chorus of
the Handel Oratorio society. under
the leadership of +. +. Peterson. The
chorus had the assistance of three
soloists. Miss Mary T. Dooley, So
prano: Ben Il. Hollenback. tenor, and
Gustaf Holmquist, basso. together
with the conservatory orchestra.
The effect of the rendition was al
together pleasing and showed great
care and fidelity in rehearsal on the
part of the performers as a whole,
and the possession of we'll trained tai
ent by the solOists. Miss Dooley APP
pears rather youthful to carry such
"A responsible part. but her work came
up to every requirement and won the
delighted plaudits of the audience.
Mr.. Holmquist is the possessor of n
voice seldom eNcelled for force and
depth and his part gave an opportun-
ity To bring out all its possibilities.
The most brilliant passages were
those in which Miss Dooley and Mr..
Holmquist sang together. Mr.. Hol-
Ienback had not the opportunity af-
forded the other soloists to display
his powers, but he handled his part
admirably. The whole furnished one
of the most delightful entertain
ments the music lovers of the city
have been privileged to attend in
some time. and Prof. Peterson and
the members of the chorus are de
serving of the highest praise for
what they accomplished.

WHY STAY PALEf

A pity to see pale girls stay
pale and dull when it is so
easy to get SCOTS Emulsion.
SCOTS Emulsion does a few
things well. One of them is
to give rich red blood to pale
girls. There is a reason for it.
But perhaps you are more
interested in results than in
reasons.
The result of steady daily
loses of SCOTS Emulsion
is an increase not only in
the red color of the blood and
in the appetite but in the good
ooks and bright manners
Which are the real charm of
good health.

An interesting document was filed
in the office of the clerk of the dis
trict court yesterday morning. 1t
was n protest on the part of the
stockholders of the Citizens and Iowa
National banks against the assess
ments of their stock holdings in those
banks for county purposes. The pro-
testants make their objection on two
counts. First they claim that the
assessment is made at a higher rate
than is justified by the value of the
stock, as shown by the banks state
ments. In the next place they claim
that the assessment is such as vir-
tually to taX-the banks holdings of
United States bonds. The banks are
represented by +. f. Cook. and, as
may be imagined. there is something
of contest in sight on this point.
