SPENCER AS MUSICAL CRITIC.
Philosopher Unable to See Harmony
In Tones OF Violin.

Herbert Spencer's opinions were
most decided on topics which he was
not by nature intended to understand
quite so well as those Of orthodox phi.
losophy. His musical heresies are
among the most startling. The violin
Is to him the voice Of shrew in a
good temper" He finds this practic'
ally perfect instrument has at least
two chronic defects, "the hiss Of the
bow and the production Of high over
tones as It is drawn over the string.
This view leads him to criticise our
orchestras for Missing" for In them
the tones of stringed instruments so
greatly predominant" Spencer, who
never attended Wagner opera,
summed up his views Of modern or
chestras. saying: Beauty they can
render, grace they can render, deli
cacy they can render, but where Ia
the dignity, where Is the GRANDEUR"
