in numbers and extremely attentive. Mr..
MacDowell is a composer first of all and
pianist afterward. and although he is
virtuoso of the foremost rank, his playing
Is particularly noteworthy because of the
fact that he places poetry and emotion
before brilliancy of execution. There Is
pathos in his Interpretation of tender melo
dies that is not to be acquired by study; IT
must be felt in the heart of the performer,
and ii is in these music poems that he
stands almost alone among American pian-
lists. His personality is such that he COM
mands respectful attention from the time
he takes his seat at his instrument. for he
is absolutely free from the affectations
characteristic of so many virtuosos now
before the public, and he impresses one as
a strong, capable. sincere musician.
In his programme yesterday AFTERNOON
his own compositions predominated, and he
played them all, with their varying lights

by both virility and refinement. Several

ly tender little compositions "A Wild Rose

audience most. for i'm these his poetic genius
seemed to find its truest expression. The
principal number or that portion Oh the re-
cital devoted to his own works was his
Fourth Sonata. Op. "a" work that Is
rich and vital with romantic spirit and so
original that it brings nome to the listener
the fact that it's creator possesses ideas
that are entirely his own, being reminis-
cent of nothing else in musical composition.
Mr.. Mcdowell played the three movements
of this number In magnetic manner that
made his audience thoroughly sympathetic
and brought forth four enthusiastic recalls.
Between the rendition of some of the pro-
grammed numbers he interpolated two other
little masterpieces of his own-his Scotch
Poem" and 1.-THE Eagle" both of which
were given in the most satisfying way.
The programme opened with the courante
and prelude of Bach, and his interpretations
of these numbers, which cannot be made
interesting to the average audience save
by the best Of artists, were filled with
poetic beauty that will be remembered.

BOARDOf APPEAL FORMED
REPRESENTATIVES, OF ALLIED
PRINTING TRADE THROUGH WORK.
the Board Is Constituted-Other
Business.

The representatives of the allied printing
trades who have been in conference in the
offices of the International Typographical
Union for the last three days adjourned
yesterday after signing an agreement. 1t
contains a provision for a board of appeal
to consist of six votes. one from the Inter-
national Brotherhood of Bookbinders,
one from the Stereotypers' and Electro
typers Union, one from the Freshmen and
Assistants Union and three from the In
ternational Typographical Union.
This board of appeal will not be consti-
tuted until after a ratification of the
agreement by the trades unions that are
party to it. The Typographical Union will
hold its convention in August, and the
agreement will then be ratified. The other
organizations will. through conventions and
executive boards, legalize it within a few
months, and the board will then be formed.
In the meantime such disputes and difficult
ties as arise between the unions will be
disposed of in manner agreed upon,
should the decision be accepted by the par
ties to the dispute.
The board of appeal is of significance, in
that it obviates the necessity of bringing
all questions of the printing trade before
the American Federation of Labor. Instead,
the disagreements will be arbitrated by
men who know something of the conditions
of the trades. The board will have eX-
elusive control of the union label and will
be called to adjudcate many technical
points that heretofore have been within the
jurisdiction of the American Federation of
Labor
The Independent photo-engravers, who
have been attending the conference, will
endeavor to organize. and in this organiza-
ton ultimately the photo-engravers now
members of the Typographical Union may
be incorporated. Such a move will not be
made, however until after an organization
is secured by the formation of an entirely
new trades union, to be made up of such
independents as wish to join and the others
that agree to an organization in national
meeting called for the purpose.
In the matter of sympathetic strikes, the
conference took no action except to pro-
vide that where sympathetic strikes are
called the organization initiating the strike
shall be called on to bear the expense of
its prosecution. Another important agree
ment made was that hereafter the repre-
sentation of the various trades in local allied
printing councils is to be based on the
membership Of the organizations represent
ed evidenced by the last preceding roll
call. This will have the effect of giving
a more accurate representative vote. as the
members of the typographical union in
certain localities greatly outnumber the
preSSmen, StereOtyper5 and engrayerS.

comedy does not do her justice. 1t con-
tains many bright and witty lines of
satirical nature-clever epigrammatic mis-
ssIes for which the ultra-fa shionable world

the play receives about all the praise that
