RIVE-KING PLAYS CHOPIN

The old adage about good things be-
ing done up in small parcels would ap-
ply with double force to the attend
ance at the second Rive-King recital
at the First Unitarian church last even
ing. The program, save for the en-
cores, was taken entirely from the
works of Chopin, and the critic who is
accustomed to. refer to the works Of
that composer as effeminate or sensuous,
could scarcely help being thoroly con-
WINGED that Chopin is a various writer,
with as many moods and lenses as be-
long to most cimposers.s r.
The program was culled apparently
at random, but was admirably arranged
and played with an abandon that was
grateful. Nine. Rive-King must be
characterized as a virle player, a mas
ter Of technique, and an Interpreter par
excellence of the heroic and grandiose.
suous, the results, tho still excellent,
be an migrate who would cavil with
such interpretations, and after all, why
should not Chopin be given a broad,
virile interpretation
The more familiar numbers on the
program, the, "Third Ballade in A.
the &c major Nocturne,'' the ~ Fl
sharp Nocture,' and the Scherze in B
fiat MINOR were a delight. The noe
turnes were prehaps trihe less dreamy
and poetic in parts than one could
wish, but the scherze was taken at a
tremendous. tempo which never faltered
OF the other numbers, the "Berceuse
was exquisite, The "Waltz in A fiat ~
was executed with a f1awless technique
that made it's 'truns'' a delight, and the
! final mum Der, the "Polonaise in A fiat, ::
was a fitting close to great treat.
Nine. Rive-King, despite the arduous
work of the evening, played three EN-
chores, a Strauss-Taussing waltz,'' 8
"Strauss waltz arranged by the artist
1 herself, and the famous but somewhat
/ threadbare Schubert-Taussig "Marche
i Militaire.'' The latter was given will
tremendous. force and the coming al
the close Of an arduous program was
played. with surprising vigor and ex
actitqde. Truly, Nine. Rive-King il
entitled to prominent place among
technicists, to say the least.

FURNACES BUSY DAY
Only Two Colder October Days tina
Yesterday in Fifteen Years. "

Yesterday was the coolest day Of
this fall. Only two colder days have
been recorded for the month Of
October in the last fifteen years. In
October, 1908, the thermometer went to
eight degrees above the lowest tenn
perature for the month which appears
on the weather bureau records. In
October, 1895, it went down to 16 and
October, 1898, matches yesterday IS
record. ...+ -
With three days left there is good
chance for October, 1905, to take an
other rap at the record. Up in the
Canadian northwest they are working
the refrigerating plant overtime and
have turned out some creditable tenn
peratures. The general average yes
terday morning was four above and at
Battleford, Saskatchewan, the mercury
stood at Zero. :

in the nail-driving contest, pounding
the nails into the board with dexteritJ
and speed. Considerable interest was
shown IN the egg-race, in which quite

In order to prevent "big mitt" men

The police often find it. hard to OBJ

petty grafters are charged with va

they can often scrape $25 around
