AT ROsENTHAL RECITAL

Cleveland, o., Feb. 6.--Moriz Rosen-
thai the Austrian pianist, left the
stage at the Grays' armory during his
recital Tuesday night.
The pianist had just finished the
playing of one Of his own compose
tions, when his tuner appeared on
the stage and whispered in his ear.
Rosenthal disappeared from the plat
form.
1t was so abruptly done that a rip
pie of wonderment ran through the
audience which filed the armory.
START TO MOVE PIANO.
For three minutes the audience sil-
entity watched the empty stage. Then
piano movers appeared and began to
take away the piano. Still no word
of explanation.
About 500 got UP and left the ar
mory. Then Herman B. Schaab, Ro-
senthals manager, explained that the
local management, the Lyceum
League, had not paid the pianist for
his services. He said that, as the au-
dience had paid admission, Rosenthal
would finish any way.
The piano movers replaced such
parts as were necessary to keep the
piano in position. Rosenthal reap.
peared and the recital went on.

PISS ACKERMANN opened her
hWI eyes to the sunshine with a
Ml startled feeling Of having
oversight herself, then closed
them again at the sound Of the chimes
from the church around the corner,
for it was Christmas day, the one day,
barring Sundays, in the year which
she could really and truly call her own.
She was that overworked individual, a
popular dressmaker, going out by the
day, and she sometimes wished, with
f. P. Roe's old doctor, that people
would send for somebody else some
times and let her rest. On the last
Fourth of July she had been in the
country sewing for dear life in order
to finish a belated bridal trousseau,
and on Thanksgiving she had worked
until dark to accommodate a customer
who wished to outshine her sisters-in-
law at family gathering at the house
of her husbands father, but on Christ
mas day not even the most exacting
customer could ask her services.
And yet-was she glad it was Christ
mas? The associations which cluster
