Audience at Waldo is Enraptured
by Piano Recital Given by
Emil debling.

Emil Liebling. Of Chicago, the
famous pianist and composer, held a
large ana appreciative audience en-
tranced in the assembly hall OF the
Waldo hotel Friday evening when he
gave piano recital under the aus
pices of the Maecato Club. He rem
dered a program of seventeen num-
bers and when he played some of his
own compositions he was accorded
such hearty. applause that he was
forced to give enCOres. His inter-
probation was magnificent, his
technic marvellous and the enthus-
iasm and power OF his playing was
felt by all. His Interpretation of
Beethoven's Moonlight sonata es-
pecialIy was grand. Chepin's Noe
turne opus 81 No 2 was idealized by
him and his own compositions were
truly artistic and beautiful. The
Spring song and serenade was par
ticularfy dainty and artistic number
and was rendered perfectly. His
auditors were fairly carried away
upon the strains OF these numbers
which besides demonstrating his re-
markable skill as a pianist attested
his wonderful abilities as a compos-
er. The numbers we're prefaced by
a short talk by Mr.. Liebling who ex-
planned their Interpretation and
dwelt briefly upon the characteristics
Of the composers.
The program was as follows:
l. Prelude opus 10. :. Mcdowell
2. Magic Fire Scene. Wagner
). Moonlight Sonata. Beethoven
4. Novelette, in
5. Bird as Prophet
6. Aufschwung ..... Schumann

OrId.wIde Scarcity Of labor.

4 labor expert in the government SER
vice at Washington says: There Is a
scarcity of labor all over the world.
The fact is widespread prosperity and the
unparalleled enterprise of the age have
led TO the undertaking of more great
projects than can possibly he completed
within a reasonable time. Good labor at
reasonable prices is no longer to be had.
The worlds labor market is wholly unable
to supply the demand. nor is this surpris-
ing when the number of great projects
now under way is taken into considera-
ton" First of all, on this side the wa
ter is the construction of the Panama
canal. In Canada 5000 miles of transcon-
tinental railway are under way. In New
York city and its environs many thou
sands Of men are employed in the sub
ways and in the construction of railway
tunnels and terminals and similar de-
velopment, and all over the country new
enterprises are in progress, Of which the
Connecticut river dam, here at our own
doors, is a prominent instance and Illus
tration.

A Story from Cuba.

The statement comes in a despatch
from Havana that an uprising against
United States occupation was planned by
Cuban lrreconcilables for July 12, and
that 1t was discovered by the United
States military authorities Just in time
to head 1t off. According to this des-
patch the trouble arose from the attempt
OF the quartermaster OF the American
garrison in MORO castle, Santiago, to
beautify the grounds about the old fort
ress by setting out trees. Unluckily he
selected cocoanut palms and having OBJ
tanned from an acquaintance 100 young
trees he had them properly planted
While the captain was congra tulating
himself on the success of his efforts
to improve Cuban properly without cost
for all the planting was done voluntarily
by the garrison, the rumor went flying
through the whole province that the
Americans were planting "cocos" on the
Moro and since it takes six years for a
COCO to bear it was obvious that the
Americans intended TO remain for at
least that period. This infiamed the zeal

A New York City Undertaking to Cost
Twice as Much as Panama Canal.

The July American Magazine contains
an article on Manhattan: an Island Out
grown" which is the best description
yet made of the extraordinary trans
portation improvements now being made
in and about New York city.
The transit problem in New York city
today has become the most difficult, COM
plicated and veXatious which faces any
American city; and twice as much money
is being spent to solve IT as is being ex-
pended on the construction OF the
Panama canal. That trans oceanic ditch
will cost 5000, 900.
THE Pennsylvania railroad alone is
spending 800, 100000 to tunnel the two
rivers and build terminal in Manhattan.
The McAdoo tubes under the North
Cor Hudson) river will cost SIS, 900 900
more. The New York Central Railroad
is going to erect an enormous new ter
minal station and bring all its trains into
the city by electric power. The Belmont
tubes under the East river to Long
Island City and the city subway tubes
from the Battery to Brooklyn repre-
sent the expenditure OF millions more.
And new subways under the East river
and north through the city itself are
being planned, while a new bridge is
under way across Blackwells Island.
The creative artists of the twentieth
century are undoubtedly the engineers
(the creative instinct is not dead; It is
merely working in another medium); and
New York city will soon contain one OF
the greatest achievements, an achieve
ment even more radical than at first
glance 1t appears, for 1t is made possible
by electricity and represents for the
first time on a thorough going scale
the change in motive power on railroads
from the steam locomotives of the past
seventy years to the electrically driven
train. In a short time-probably three
years at most four railroad systems
will bring their enormous traffic into the
very heart of Manhattan Island under
rivers and streets and avenues, without
a pun of smoke or a sound of steam.
Underground, in silence and clean air,
they will come and so depart again,
while the Hudson River steamers pass
over the Washington express and the
carriages on Park avenue roll above the
Bay State limited. The achievement is
stupendous and unique"

America at The Hague.

Represented by the keen and eIoauent
Choatc, the magnetic Porter. the forceful
Bartholdt and other intellectual giants,
American prestige appears to be making
itself felt for the cause of peace and jus
tice in the great world congress at The
Hague. During the week two distinct
victories are credited to the American
delegation. First. the proposal that
nation shall resort to arbitration before
going to war to collect the debts claimed
by citizens against a foreign power and,
second, the decisive vote of twenty y-one
nations to eleven in favor Of the Amer
lean proposal to make private property
AT sea inviolable in times OF war. Besides
this, Mr., Choate made an impressive
speech in favor of the adoption of a gem
eral arbitration scheme.-LSt Louis Globe

! presidential campaign draws near. Sew.
eral times he has taken occasion to say
that he did not contemplate Immediate
government ownership and last Saturday
he gave out the statement from his home
| at Lincoln, Nebraska, in which he saw.
that government ownership is not an
immediate issue" and that there is nc
desire anywhere to make government
ownership an issue in 1908" He lets
himself down as easily as possible by de-
claring that the first duty is to secure
proper regulations OF the railroads and
that the Democratic party must unauali-
fedly declare its national platform for
effective railroad legislation" a subject
on which the Republican national plat
forms have been silent" Mr.. Bryan con-
cludes his statement with this declara
tion:
THE President has partly sided with
the Democratic view on this subject. but
so far the Republican leaders have reso-
lutely opposed it, The President is help
ing to educate the people up to the need
OF railroad regulation, but his party
under its present leadership, Is power
less to accomplish this or any other i'm
portant reform.
If the Democratic party will clearly
and irrevocably demand: First. the ascer-
tanning Of the value Of all the railroads:
second, the preventing of overcapitaliza-
tion, and, third, the reduction Of rates
to point where they will yield only a
reasonable return on the real value OF the
roads. it will commend itself not only
to Democrats but to those Republicans
who have been led to study the railroad
question. The railroad situation presents
a vital issue and the issue should be so
stated that every one can understand the
partys position"
The New York Commercial an inde-
pendent Republican newspaper, makes
this comment on Mr.. Bryan's apparent
uncertainty as to where he is "at' on the
railroad regulation problem:
AS an opportunist, modher, a trim
mer we hasten to commend the Hon
oraoie William Jennings Bryan Of Ne

Bryan assured an eagerly expectant
throng of awaiting partisans and the
country-at- large that the one great po-
