MIR. FRANKO'S "OLD" Music.
This Time 1t Was All Mozart, Whose Youth
Is Immortal.

The second Of Sam Franko's concerts Of
old music took place last night in Mendels-
sohn Hall. II ever there was a misnomer
it was the application OF the general title
of this series to this particular concert
for the programme was made entirely OF
the music Of Mozart. True. this music was
composed long time ago, but it is not old
1t is young with the spirit OF eternal youth.
There are some who find it a little too mild
for these days of hot spice, but it will be
fresh when much OF the seething product
of to-day has burned out its fierce fire and
remains nothing but gray ashes,
Last nights progra mme comprised the
fantasia in minor for organ and strings
the Symphonic Concertante' in fat for
violin and viola, the divertimento in B fiat
for strings and two horns and the Peasant :
Symphony" in F major. Charles Gilbert
Spross played the organ, Leopold Lichten.
berg the solo violin and Mr.. Franko himself
the solo viola. Henry Schmitt. concert
master of the orchestra conducted the Sym
phonie Concertante,'' and also distinguished
violin passages in the divertimento
Few composers can stand the strain of
having whole programme made of their
music. Mozart is one of the few. There
was variety enough in last evenings con-
cert, for Mr.. Franko had used excellent
judgment in its arrangement. If there
was single person in the audience in need
of triumphant demonstration of the rich
ness Of Mozart's genius he must have found
it in the fantasia, one OF the pieces which
and which was long afterward transcribed
for grand organ and strings. If Mozart
had chosen to write for a Chinese fiddle
he would have made immortal music. be-
cause that was the only kind he had in his
soul. This fantasia was admirably per-

III STING THE STEEL Trust.
The Sargent Pupils DO II In Play by Cora
Maynard.

Over and above the pursuit Of millions
is the romance of daring greatly in great
affairs. Something like this was the motto
of the hero Of THE Measure of Il Man" by
Cora Maynard. which the senior members
of the Sargent School of Acting produced
Yesterday afternoon at the Empire for the
first time on any stage. BY means Of
well proved invention this hero was able
to cut the cost Of production of steel in
half and, backed by capitalist worth
hundred million dollars. he set out to bust
the steel trust.
He was in love with the multimillion
aires daughter, who was an advanced
Young lady, and did not approve of her
fathers financial methods. But the multi
milonaire's second wife and only JOY was
in love with him and raised a lot of trouble.
When she got jealous of her stepdaughter,
once, she br ibed her husband with single
kiss not to go in for the trust busting vent.
ure after all. But he didn't stay bribed
and ended by seducing the honest young
promoter into the ways of frenzied finance
which shocked the advanced daughter.
But il all came out right in the end,
There was also pair Of comic young
lovers who were up TO mischief and con-
siderably thickened the plot. The drec-
tors at the directors meeting were all
dummy directors, except one who was
comic director but might better have been
dummy.
The first two acts did not inspire much
enthusiasm, even among an audience that
was obviously well disposed. But the
third and fourth acts hit up the dramatic
ace and we're received with enthusiasm,

WAR BARELY AYERTED.
PLAN TO INVOLVE ENGLAND AND
GERMANY FAILED.

An Explanation at Last OF the DOyger
Bank Incident-Secret Compact Be
tween Gar Of Russia and Emper or
william Discl0sed-Timely Int erycntion
by France.
That the firing on the English fishing boats
by the Russian Baltic fleet was the result
of secret compact between the Car OF
Russia and the German Emperor with the
intent to involve England in war, is the
latest explanation of the Dogger Bank
Incident
As the story goes the Russians attacked
the fishermen with the hope that England
would arrest the further progress of the
fleet; then Germany would intervene, in
sist that the feet should be allowed to pro-
ceed and generally take the side Of Russia
whereupon England would declare war
Germany would make descent on England,
Russia would come to terms with Japan,
transfer her armies from Manchuria to
the southern part of Asia, and make a
descent on India.
The general result OF the daring scheme
would be that England would be crlmpled
up, and the German Emperor would dictate
terms to the world from London.
This secret treaty, according to the story,
left France out of the reckoning, Russia
ignoring her ally but France discovered
the game and baked it.
All this and much more is disclosed in f.
Phillips Oppenhem' new novel, A Maker
of History" which, having taken England
by storm is now being read in all parts of
the United States by those who relish their
fiction favored with dash of vigorous
reality and romantic timeliness.

FIRST LOCOMOTIVE STEAM WHISTLE

Locomotives seventy-hve years ago had no whistles
The engineer kept by his side tin horn, which he
blew before curves and dangerous crossings, But
the noise was feeble.
In 1888 an English farmers cart was run down
on the way to market and one thousand eggs, on,
hundred pounds of butter, two horses and mar
were Jumped in one great omelet ON the rails. The
railway had to pay the damages, The president sent
for George Stevenson and said angrily:
Our engineers cant blow their horns loud enough
to clear the track ahead, You have made your
steam do so much, why don't you make it blow Il
good loud horn for us.
Stevenson pondered An idea came to him. He
visited Il musical ntrument maker and had con
structed a horn that gave a horrible screech whet

ASTORIA, FIRST, AND LAST

There are several people in this city who are of
the opinion that the Astorian is wasting time in
fighting the adverse and dominating spirit of Port
land and its press toward this city. All we have to
say in reply is that the Astorian is just what its
name signifies, and that it is wholly committed to
the policy of standing up for Astoria's rights by
whomsoever they are assailed or invaded. 1t is a
poor paper, and a poor citizen that crawls and
propitiates and temporizes when its home city is
unfairly attacked be the assaulting force what it
may. We confess the scrap seems hopeless but it
has been made hopeless more by reason of the pas
sivity of people who cling to the idea that Portland
must be placated for the possible good she might
do us, if the notion took her. Well! That may do
for some, but the community that does not respect
itself enough to make resstive overtures in case
like this, is liable to get all that Portland has been
giving US, and little more, to boot

WHICH SHALL 1T BE?-

No school can flourish where the discipline of
that school has to meet the nsistant criticism and
carping structures of the home Only one system
of regulation may prevail in the handling of the
young and when the children are committed to the
custody of trained teachers and made amenable to
prescribed discipline, the best and simplest duty
of the parent is to conform to the regimen in force
and keep hands off. To do otherwise is to assist
in the disruption of the school, rendering nugatory
the work and interest of the teacher and spelling
the child for the sterner obligations of life, by
weakening its respect for all manner of restrictive
pressure that must confront it at nearly every
step in its career If the government of the school
does not exceed the limitations of rational con-
troll, the parent, in arraying himself against it,
works deeper injury to the child than he wots
of, and has but himself to thank for the later re-
prisals that society will inAict upon one who dis
dains its ordinances and invites its censure The
schools of Astoria are ably and conscientiously
managed, and do not deserve adverse criticism at
any man S hands
