VICTOR nERBERrS CONCERT.
Old Favorites Played and = New setting %
~ Love We're what the rose &c."

Victor Herbert and his orchestra gave
another Of their popular concerto in the
Majestic Theatre last night. Tho big
audience that greeted conductor and orches-
ira proved again that the programmes
Of light but good music offered please
large number Of persons.
The concert was short, but none the less
enjoyable. Mr.. Herbert has HE own ideas
about snap and 60, which he has made
Characteristic Of his own compositions.
He put that same snap into the interpreta-
ton Of the works Of other composers which
his orchestra played last night, and though
this pleased the audience immensely, II
gave sometimes volume OF sound little
too big for the theatre.
Overenthusiasm caused Mr.. Herbsrt
once last night TO forget his soloist. 50
that her voice was partly drowned by The
orchestra. Most Of the programme, how
ever. was rendered acceptably.
The orchestra numbers Included the over
ture from Die Fliedermaus' played with
a swing that drew a lot OF applause the
Italian, German and Spanish movements
from MosZkowski's suite The Natis,
Liszt's symphonic poem Les Preludes,
Ochs's musical joke which presents an
old German folk song as II might have been
arranged by half a dozen Of the greatest
COMPOSER, and Chair .er's "Ftte Polonaiee.
The soloist was Miss May Naudain. one
Of the singers In 1T Happened 10 Nord-

heard In comic opera here. She sang four
sodgs, thr ee Of them 10y MI Herbert, and
earned two encores. One Of her numbers
was a new setting by the leader Of the.
verses III Love We're What the Rose Is.
For encores Mr.. Herbert played several OF
his own compositions, including bite Of
the Nordland music. The audience
wanted more Of these than they got.

No Reduction In Future for Leasing the
Hal for u Series OF Concerts.
Musical agents have been in a furry
over the news that the rent Of Carnegie
Hall was 10 be materially advanced this
season. This is the only large concert
room in the city, and whatever its managers
should demand it would be necessary for
musicians to pay. It seems. however,
that the advance in prices is not to be so
great as reported.

the managers said yesterday, Hitherto,
however, the hall has been let at a reduction

Now It costs 500 for every concert. We
have also added purely nominal charge
for the use Of the hall at rehear,sals in order
10 pay for lighting and heating.
We make another arrangement with
eocieties that cannot afford 10 pay $500.
We give them the hall for 5 per cent. Of

sum. We also make a rate OF $50 only

The Philharmonic, the Boston Sym
phony Orchestra and some OF the musical
agents who have been in the habit OF taking
the hall at a reduction for a number Of per
formances will be hit hardest by the new
charge. II Is said that the Philharmonic

Writing TO the April Critic from London
Arthur PendenysT denies that Oscar
Wilde owes his reputation to Du Maurier
He says:
Before Wide had ever been carioatured 10 Punch
he had gained the Berkeley gold medal 'nr Greek
At Dublin, and he had obtsined the Hewdlgsts
prze for his POEM "Ravenna." Wilde had ceased
10 be eare6tured by Du Mauner when Lady Win

Germany and America, and he was In prison and
Du Maurier dead when "SAlome" Was produced In
Paris while he himself was dead when -Saloms"
became pan Of the rtpertoIre Of the German stage,
sOne might as well say continues the
English writer, that Mr.. Chamberlain
owed his reputation TO F. c. Gould or Theo-
dore Watts-Dunton to James Douglas. ,
Many Of the old legends which have sur
rounded Wilde and his work are being told
again since the publication Of de Pro-
funds, and among others the story that
the author died alone and without proper
medical attention. After he came out Of
prison Wilde lived in Paris at the Hotel
d'Alsaice He died in the Roman Catholic
faith, attended by two physicians and a
trained nurse, and with him at the time Of
his death were his dearest friends, Robert

Six hundred and seventy four have been dis
charged. or these GA, Al of H. or SO%,
who were discharged in the year 1900, were
improved or entirely recovered so far as
traces of tuberculosis still remained; 73 of
112 in 1901, or 6S%; IS of 40, or 7O%, in
1902; 112 of 147, or 7G%, in 1908; 1O1 of al
or 72%, in 1904; and 3G of As, or SO%, were
improved or cured during the first four
months of 1908 In other words, of the GA
patients discharged from the hospital since
1t welcomed the penniless Jewish consump-
tives of America, about 500 or more than
sixty per cent. were returned to their fami
lies improved entirely recovered and
were enabled to become self-dependent
and productive members of society. Five
hundred men and women were returned to
useful careers, who, without the humane OPP
portunity accorded by the hospital, would
have fallen hopeless victims of tuberculosis,
would have infected their children and have
become a burden to communities wherein
they lived. About twenty-five hundred souls
counting five to family, reasonable esti
mate among our poor brethren, were prob
ably saved from becoming public charges
and were prevented from visiting the evils
of consumption upon the third and fourth
generations of their offspring. The contrib
utors to the hospital are therefore the first
grade of the eight classes of charity desig
mated by Maimonides; they aid the poor to
support themselves.
The percentage of those patients in
whom the disease was arrested (physicians
do not speak of consumption as cured I'M
til five years shall have elapsed) would have
been far greater had the hospital been en-
abled to confine it's treatment to incipient
cases. Unavoidable conditions such as
faulty diagnoses of examining physicians.
impelled the committee of admission to &C
cept numerous patients in the advanced
stages of the disease. OF those in the in
cipient stages eighty-five per cent were vir-
tually restored to health; thirty-five per cent.
of those in the second stages. and very
small number of very advanced cases. Appli-
cants are given the benefit of the doubt and
unless beyond all hope they are admitted.
The patient passes the day as follows
He arises at 6 a. m, and, after a shower
bath, a walk, and such light work as making
up his bed if he is able, he breakfasts at
1870. From that moment until bedtime he
must lead life in the open. Lunch of milk,
eggs, or special diet when ordered is given
at $50 a. m. after which large number of
patients receive throat and nose treatment.
Twelve o'clock is dinner hour; then an hours
rest. The patients then amuse themselves
by playing games or walking about the
grounds. Lunch is again furnished between
and p. M; supper at 5, and a glass of
milk or egg at 8; 8 o'clock is bedtime
Temperature is taken twice daily at am.
and 4 p. m. The patients are out of doors
practically all day, and many sleep out of
doors at night with the exception Of the
