Polish Prirna Donna Charms
a Crowded Carnegie Hall
at Her Annual Recital.
BY SYLVESTER RAWLING.

- rARCELLA SEMBRtCH held court
M in Carnegie Han Yesterday vest, .ss.,, at,
@NA ternoon and graciously received
the homage Of her host on admirers,
The occasion was the annual autumn
recital of their Queen OF Song. From
floor TO roof the house was packed. Oh
the vast audience 20 per cent. were
women, who sat silent, eager and alert
while she sang. and applauded each
number until their gloves were split.
At the second intermission they show
cred upon her a deluge of flowers, and
at the end of the programme they
focked to the foot of the stage and de-
manded more. which they got.
It's an old story, but it's ever new.
Seasoned reviewers of many strenu-
Gus music season fall under Its IN
fuenCe. They know precisely what Will
happen from the time the little Polish
prima donna first appears until she
smiles and kisses her hand and waves
her last good-by, which is emphatic.
But they linger with the crowd and the
Jumps come into their threats and their
hearts approve. no matter with what
lofty contemptuousness their minds re-
gard the scene. For. after all, there is
only one of her, this mistress OF the
art of singing, to whom we owe 80
much.
A little plumper in figure, a little
younger IN looks, in a mauve directoire
gown and a mauve hat which no mere
man can describe, she came upon the
stage with 1sadore Luckstone. her &C
companist. Her first selection was
Schuberts Der Lindenbaum." which
she sang delightfully."-, but with some of
the restraint that IS always hers at the
beginning With every SONG her man
ner became more free and her voice
more expressive. It ISN'T necessary to
enumerate the list of her songs, Schu-
mans "Er lists" Max Rogers Wal
deinsamkeit," Richard Strauss Nor
gen." Paderewskis "Moja Pieszczotka,"
Anton ArenSky's But Lately IN
Dance" ,for she sang it in English
and Isidore Luckstone's "A Love SYM
phony." she had TO repeat. Her arch
ness and expression and conquetry. as
well a $ her exquisite singing, were mani
fest in all.
When everything was over and she
and the audience should have been on
the way home she sang "Hark. Hark'
the Lark and The Maiden's WISH"
the latter, of course. to her own accom-
paniment.

WHISKeY FOR LAME BACK.

The increased use of whiskey -or
lame-back rheumatism is causing
considerable discussion among the
medical fraternity. 1t is an almost
infallible cure when mixed with Ger
tain other ingredients and taken
properly. The following formula is
effective: ITO one-half pint of good
whiskey add one ounce of Toris Com
pound and one ounce syrup Sarsa-
parilla Compound. Take in table
spoonful doses before each meal and
before retiring.
1t is surely worth trying by any
one who may be afflicted.

PLEADS FOB CATHOLICISM
Priest Says Church Needs Press and
Ne7r Schools.

Roman Catholic education and the Roman Cath
olc press America were criticised IN sermon OF
lament yesterday morning by the Rev. Joseph H
Mcmahon rector of the Church of Our Lady OF
Ixurdes on Washington Heights. Father Nc
Mahon deplored the ''rnodernstic doctrines taught
in the public schools of New York. which are able.
he said. to make the religion of Roman Catholic
children a hypocrisy. But, he exclaimed, the
politica power of the Catholic element in the city
is too far on the to turn the tide of sec
tarianisrn.
Politically Catholics don't count rap In New
York" said the preacher. The Catholic Office
holders are afraid of being found out if they give
US favors. Besides. they husily engaged in
locking after the interests Of rich men: The real
danger TO children comes from our high
schools. Scientific and historical hereses sufficient
to undermine their faith taught in the common
schools of the city If the theory OF evolution as
taught IN the public schools is right then you and
l are the greatest fools earth.
we haven't in the country good Catholic
newspaper printed in English, unless want
gossip sheet telling US about Father So-andSo and
his piety," continued Father Mcmahon. My list
OF grievances is long l ask why should the
young men of the country who contemplate Cath

sought by young Catholic girls at the public libra
ries where we see Catholics and Protestants alike
wallowing in a literary cesspool." The Roman
Church is fast losing its children by the hundreds
of thousands, he declared, because it makes no
provision for education in Catholic principles.
We must admit that many of our higher inst-
tutions of learning he said. do not accomplish
enough for children. committee from the
archbishops Of the country, at a meeting of the
Catholic colleges in Milwaukee, recently when
asked to make the attendance of Catholic children
at Catholic schools matter Of compulsion refused
to do so on the ground that inferior course
would be given them.
They all call the Holy Father the Peasant
Pope' but he has put his finger the shameful
weakness Of Catholic clergy. He has pointed
out that greatest danger lies In our ignorance
Of Catholic ideals and beliefs Speaking to a

Five hundred students and friends of the gradu-

baccalaureate services yesterday afternoon in the
auditorium at University Heights. The sermon
was delivered by the Rev. DR.. Robert Mackenzie
of the Rutgers Riverside Presbyterian Church
He said
Corporations. they say, have conscience, and
this is true. for there is longer the personal

conscience, the college class has conscience
Conscience cannot be distributed any more than a

to the natural responsibility of self. The wrong
