orchestra at the Jefferson theatre last
night was attended by a large and dis
eliminating audience. 1t was the musi-
cal event of the season and Walter DAM
rosch, the director, received an ovation,
did also Leo Schulz, the cello soloist.
The programme included the Mignon
overture, Beethovens second symphony,
prelude and bridal chorus from Lohen-
grin and Tschaikousky's Sav march.
Miss Zudie Harris of Louisville. who
was to have played a piano concerto of
her own composition, was caught in a

tional Jewish song was played as only an
artist of Schulz's quality could play It,
For encore responses the orchestra
played Bach's air for the c. string and
