The Kountze Memorial church was fairly
we'll filled last night by an audience COM
posed Of the friends and admirers Of MIR. Carl
Frederick Steckelberg, who to
hear a very interesting program which ne
had prepared for them. and incidentally
to greet the violinist officially, as 1t we're,
that is, as an audience, before his
final leave-taking for the musical shrines In
Europe.
The program opened with the famous
Norwegian mountain and ford-colored SON
alta op. 10 of Grieg, which Mr.. Steckelberg
and Miss Marie Hoover of Lincoln trested
with a skill and taste and unsnimity which
showed individual ability and careful pre-
p~aratory rehearsal. In addition Mr.. Steck-
elberg played a brace Of numbers, all OF
which we're gems in violin literature, and
the airs Russes" Of W~ieniawski.
Mr.. steckelberg excels in warmth of tone
and breadth of delivery. His "mezzo and
low voice" Ito borrow from the singer is
especially beautiful and every tone is vi
brant with intensity.
Technically, he is we'll equipped and with
the maturity which a few years more will
bring. he will gain a velvety sureness in
the extreme upper tones and a clearness
Of harmonics which will round out his
work as a virtuoso.
Mr.. Steckelberg certainly has the divine
| spark and he will doubtless come back
to his own again full Of glory and honor.
Miss Marie Hoover was gwen a reception
equal to that Of the star. and she created
a splendid impression. She has a sincere
and unaffected style and in both solo work
and accomplishments she pleased the musi-
clans. For solo numbers she give a "Klav-
ierstuck' by Strauss and a Chaminade
number, responding to a resistless encore
with a Nevin sketch. Her technique, her
grace and her style displayed the musician.
Miss Hoover will be a welcome pianist at
all times.
One OF the interesting features Of the
program was the trio played by Mr.. Car
Steckelberg. violinist, Mr.. Henry Steckel-
berg (father) '%cellist, and Miss Hoover
pianist. 1t was as good a piece Of ensemble
playing as has been heard locally for years
The audience showed It's good taste and his
discernment by insisting on another offer
ing, which was cheerfully given.
Mr.. Steckelberg, ST., draws a beautiful
tone and his past work in connection with
the Theodore Thomas orchestra came very
plainly to the front last night in the ma
ture. deliberate. accommodating manner
in which he supplemented and adapted
his part at all times to the ~ensemble-th
real test of an ensemble player.
The concert was a very higly enjoyable
one and one that will be remembered pleas
antly In connection with the other concert
in the same place on the corresponding
night last week, when Mr.. Cuscaden, an
other Of the distinguished, young .maestrl
held the boards. rp>' "

sacket's Harbor. N. Y. where many OF
the scenes in Olin l.. Lyman's book. "Ths
Trail Of the Grand Seigneur," are laid, is
a spot OF peculiar interest to one who owns
to a weakness for dreaming OF past days.
The northern tier Of counties Of the state
OF New York are uniquely rich in romantic
historical traditions. The Introduction Of
the characters OF M. De Montefort and his
daughter, Renee, the French refugees who
figure in THE Trail Of the Grand Seigneur,"
was suggested to the author through n
bona-hde historical fact. Among the many
who we're driven from France during the
Terror were a nobleman md his daughter,
the latter a mere child. The Frenchman
quilted his disturbed country for these
shores with great dificulty. taking his
child. who had been committed to a con-
vent for safe-keeping. They removed to a
rude cabin in the all but unbroken wilder
ness OF northern New York, the nobleman
having supervision of some large forest
holdings for some French compatriots. The
daughter cheerfully shared his years Of
exile and performed the domestic tasks.
Rowing hunters and trsppers knew the
cabin we'll, where they were most hos
pitably entertained, being charmed with
the exquisite beauty and grace OF the daugh-
ter, who finally married a young French
man and lived thereafter a little south of
the present village OF Deer River. Her
father made his home with her after her
marriage, and died there in 1880. He was
a man Of fervent piety, spending much of
his time on his knees In prayer. After
he was dead, the skin upon his knees was
found to be calloused-it was hardened to
the bone by almost constant kneeling.

The publication OF Meadow Grass and
"Tiverton Tales" brought to Miss Alice
Brown a host OF admirers, and her new
books have constantly added to her circle
Of readers. In her new novel. THE Man
nerings," published by Houghton. Mifhin &
Co., she has chosen a fresh scene and a
style more powerful and emotional than
that OF her earlier Books. The story passes
In o. near a charming country house, re-
mote from town, though the commercial
interests OF a great city are in the back
ground Of the picture. The descriptions of
this free. unconventional country life have
much beauty and variety while her char
acters are attractive and vigorously drawn.
The plot, which involves a double love
story, is ingenious and ~unhackneyed. In
short, THE Mannerings" is the strongest,
most vital and dramatic work which Miss
Brown has yet produced.
