box of the church. He said he visited the
church on previous occasion and found he
was unable to get into the box He went out
and obtained a small iron bar from hard
ware store and, armed with that. he mace
his second attempt. That time he was sue
cessful in getting the lock off, but the cleo
trical alarm which the janitor had put on
the box to protect 1t from such attacks be-
trayed him. The janitor heard the alarm
and rushed to the front of the church. TO
find Dram just trying to get out of the
building The janitor held him until an
officer could arrive from the station house.
Il had been drinking hard and could NOT
help but go there and try to get into the
box he told the judge.
This robbing of the poor box OF church
is one of the meanest kinds of stealing,

also the farewell Of Wilhelm -Gericke, con-
Quctor, who VIII soon return to Europe.
The concert was up to the standard set
by the famous musical organization. and
the best traditions of the great orchestra
were maintained The audience. large and
representative of the music-kDowing ele-
ment of Washington, was raptly attentive
to the work OF the orchestra and explo-
sively demonstrative at the conclusion OF
movements and numbers. The band played
with the unity of sentiment and poetry
Of tone which distinguishes the Boston
Symphony.
Beethoven's Second symphony first on
the program, was fiawlessly done. 1t Is so
familiar 10 concert patrons that the songs
running through IL are old friends. The
themes, some bold snd noble, some grace
fui and pathetic and some festive. made O.
strong appeal to the auditory. The lar

ment and satisfaction that II was enthu-

choir was especially effective.
The novelty OF the program was con-
certo by Jacques Dalcroze. for violin and
orchestra, the soloist being Henri Marteau.
1t was the first rendition of this piece in
Washington. Marteau played with superb
tone and spectacular virtuosity. The con-
certo. being new to Washington ears, was
not completely grasped, but wherever the
melodies rang clearly above the embroid-
cry they were thought beautiful In the
NATURALIZATION the composer mas Deel al
fected by oriental ideas and here and there
are touches OF barbaric color. Concert Mas
ter Willy Hess conducted the concerto. Mr.
Marteau was recalled half dozen times,
but declined to play again.
The third number was the Bacchanale
from 'Tannhauser," and WIS played with
poetry and dash and carried through in a
swirling tempo. The last number was the
overture to Weber's Der Freischutz,' and
none of its beauty was lost. Mr.. Gericke
conducted it from memory.
