Vrtuoso Rosenthal
Charms Ihrong
at Berkeley
BY James Crawford

Insistent threat of rainfall caused
rangement by which Pianist Rosenthal
was TO have performed in conjunction
with the University Orchestra yester-
day afternoon in the Greek Theater.
The programme was duly carried out
In Harmon Gymnasium and the audi
ence more than taxed the seating ca
pacity of the big structure.
Rosenthal was heard in the Chopin
minor and Liszt Z fat concertos,
and DR.. Wolle's men played Beetho-
ven's Leonora Overture No. and Mac
DowelTs Indian suite. In the con-
certos the soloist and the accompan-
lists were more en- rapport than could
reasonably have been expected by any
one aware OF the unavoidable made
Quacy of rehearsal Once, during the
second movement of the Chopin num-
ber.- there was a hint at discordant
struggling by some of the strings, but

Concertos are essentially show num-
bers. written from the head instead of
the heart and the z minor Chopin con-

the technical resources, to the musical
beauty of the romance larghetto he
gave due respect, and of the finale he
made an amazing exhibition of plan
istic pyrotechnics. such as the: Chopin
temperament never could have con-
ceived. 1t was perfection of tone
maintained in madness of speed.
In the Liszt concerto the soloist took
full advantage of his enhanced op-
portunity for consistent display ef
wider contrasts, and the orchestra, too,
did excellent work with the theme
throughout the four movements. In
the finale, worked up splendidly by the
ensemble the pianist's wonderful pow
er was exemplifed by the failure of
the full orchestra. percussions and all,
TO drown the crashing of his instru-
ment in response to the trip hammer
force of his fingers. And as he rose,
perspiring and painting, the audience
rose, too, and cheered Justify and re-
called him time and time again until
he appeased the clamor by playing his
nelodious bagatelle "Papillons" and
showing his peerless digital facility.
After the Chopin concerto the Mac
Dowell Indian suite naturally failed TO
provoke much enthusiasm, and so tre-
mendously was il oyershadowed by the
Liszt concerto that even the most pa
triotic auditor could remember 1t only
with regret that il was played at all.
Sandwiched between two such stunning
pieces, with a world beating soloist in
each, a much greater composition than

and the actual depreciation in the value
of securities where corporations have
been publicly convicted of overcapital-
ization, fraud or general rottenness.
That a few old concerns like the ia
nous Pope bicycle and automobile
works have encountered temporary
difficulties because of an inability to
borrow money is result of prosperity,
rather than an indication of impending
disaster. Business men must recog-
nize that our amazingly prosperous
years have had the effect of calling
upon every available source for loans
and that now they must shape their
affairs so as to meet their require
ments either out of their earnings or
defer their improvements and extern
sions for a bit.

LIVESTOCK SHOWING.

In no single department has the fair
made more progress than in the live
stock department. The showing Of
blooded and graded stock this year
speaks volumes for the development of
the country in this line of industrial
betterment, Not only is this showing
noticeable in the show ring, but in
and streets, wherever a team or a
single driver or saddle horse is in
evidence
The whole country is growing rap
idly in the Improvement of its stock
The range steer and the wild cayuse
are rare speciment on any of the farms
of the country. Herefords and short
horns furnish the beef for the market
and the cattle for export. Percherons
and Belgians are drawing the farm
wagons and the heavy drays in the
towns and cities. Jerseys and Hol-
stems and Attorneys are in the farm
diaries and furnish the substance for
the creameries. The same changes ap-
ply for the hogs and the sheep and the
poultry.
This is natural evolution. 1t
comes with the breaking up on the big
ranches into smaller farms, where in
tensive farming takes the place of ex-
tensive farming and quality stands for
more than quantity. These changes
will be more and more accentuated as
the farms give way to orchard tracts
and all kinds of culture becomes inten-
SIZED. The fair management is max
ing no mistake in offering even more
liberal premiums and fostering compe-
tition among the residents Of the ter

stock and bringing the best of the
product to the exposition as an object
lesson for the country.
