piano solo-valse, "A la bien Aimee"
Miss Anita Levi. The presentation of
1.-THE Family Album" followed. 1t has

Night, o Lovely Night" LaFiancee

with a brocade polonnaise and bodice
of the same color as the skirt. The
material is valuable. and the gown was
in a splendid condition and serviceable'

necessity is necessarily slow n expcn-

be avoided.
Another valuable feature of any system
of docks Is one in which provision is made
for extensive manufacturing plants in close
proximity to the pier, and a system Of
tracks whereby the manufacturer can re-
ceive his raw material and deliver his fin
ished product without the intervention of
n middleman or the r~ehandling of his COM
modities.
I'm order to have enough room TO build
n system of modern wharves sufficiently
'arge to meet the future needs of your
city, a strip of land should be acquired at
least 1000 feet wide, extending from the
bay to the high ground. This will provide
for Il canal LOCO feet wide when finished,
with a strip of land 1850 feet wide on each
side. by extending the bulkhead line out
to the siX-foot contour and constructing
piers and slips and an anchorage basin, as
shown on the plan, you will secure 1871
miles of wharfage, which will afford room
for upward of 200 average sea-going yes
sells to unload at the same time in your
narbor. The canal basin will have a water
surface Of 375 acres, with an area OF 1850
acres adjacent for the storage and distri-
LUTON OF cargo. Judging by the volume
of commerce in the ports OF other cities,
this VIII be ample for the needs of your
city during the present generation. Re-
spectfully submitted.

WHO PURCHASED FLAG?
Suggested That Chesapeake's Emblem
Should Go to Annapolis.

NEW YORK, Feb. There is much
curiosity in New York as to who pur-
chased the Chesapeake's flag when it
was sold at auction in London on
Thursday, and what disposition is to
be made of it. 1t is considered n
of the greatest relics OF American his
tory owned abroad. 1t has been suE-
gested that it sheald hang in the
chapel at the Annapolis Naval Acad-
envy, the building in which rest the
bones of John Paul Jones.
j. Pierpont Morgan, Cornelius VAN

DR.. Muck's Departure.

DIR. Karl Muck is to sever his connee-'
ton with the Boston Symphony Orchestra
at the end of the present season. DIR.
Muck obtained his first leave Of absence
from Berlin for the season of 19o6-1907 only
with the greatest difficulty, and not until
he had sigLe ed a new contract with the
Royal Opera in Berlin for six years. dating
from the autumn of 1907. When it became
a question a year ago last December to
have this leave OF absence extended for
another year it required all the influence
that the Boston symphony Orchestra could
bring to bear to induce n Kaiser to grant
the request. DR.. Muck refused absolutely
to lift q. finger In the cause, for while he
was anxious to stay, he justly said that
as he had given the Kaiser a promise to
stay here but one year, he could not in
good faith ask for an extension OF h a
time. That the Kaiser finally, and after
much hesitation, did give his consent to
DR.. Muck's coming to Boston for a second
season was regarded in Berlin as a most
unusual concession to American sentiment.
During the early part of this season the
management of the orchestra hoped that
some way might be found to secure DIR.
Muck's release from his Berlin contract.
but the authorities there would not listen
to any proposition to this end, saying that
Berlin needed his services quite as much
rs Boston and could not spare him any
longer.
DIR. Muck will leave America early in
May, his last concerts in Boston being on
May | and g. With Mrs. Muck he will go
to Berlin. where he will stay until the mid
die of June. Then he goes to Bayreuth,
where he will stay until the end of August,
for he is again TO be the conductor of the
"Parsifal' performances there.
All reports regarding his successor in
Boston may be considered as unfounded
remors. That a distinguished conductor
viii succeed him may be accepted as Ger
tain, for it has always been and Is. the pol
icy of the MANAGEMENT of the BoSton Sym
phony Orchestra to be satisfied only with
the best. But no one has been engaged as
yet and it will likely be well into the
spring before an authoritative announce
ment regr riding the next conductor of the
orchestra will be made.

RUGBY IN SCHOOLS
HELPS COLLEGE
TEAMS
Santa Clara Valley viii Feed
Stanford and City Must
Supply Berkeley
By William Unmack

Rugby in the high schools was the
topic of conversation last week in the
city, and word was received that Sac
ramento high school would substitute
Rugby for intercollegiate and that the
Grass Valley schools had also decided
on the English game. 1t is probable
that in the city schools Rugby will be
played next year.
A meeting of the Academic league is
to be held next month and It is quite
possible that the question of Rugby or
intercollegiate will then be fully dis
cussed. 1t seems that the time has
come for the high schools to play the
game. II IS likely that neither Cali
fornia nor Stanford universities will
play the intercollegiate game again.
In the Santa Clara valley the Rugby
game has been played for two years
by the leading schools, and this last
season many of the smaller schools
took It up. Next year the result of
this Rugby knowledge among those
schools is going to be a big factor in
the makeup of the Stanford teams.
This will be OF more particular adj
vantage to the Stanford freshmen.
school boys have already signified their
intention of attending Stanford next
year.
At California university there will
be no experienced Rugby material for
the coaches to work on and the team
will have to be nodded from the be-
ginning.
