Vladimir De Pachmann's cherry per sonality and godlike Chopin playing will in all probability be with our mu- sical public for the. last time when he makes his farewell tour in this coun- try next season. Recent accounts from London report that time does not seem to stale in the slightest degree either the inimitablc art of De Pachmann or the infinite variety of his unique antics on the stage.
 It has been often said that the ia miliar whimsicalities of the great Rus sian pianist are assumed merely for stage use, but story just reported from London proves conclusWely that Do Pachmanns merry humor-al- Nough in this instance delightfully."-
