CRITICAL AUDIENCE PLEASED
Philadelphia Orchestra Achieves
Triumph in Concert,
Carl POhIiG Establishes Himself as
Hn Able and brilliant Conductor.
Herman Standby VioIonce1Iist.

The Philadelphia Orchestra. Carl Poh-
llg conducting. achieved distinct tri-
umph yesterday afternoon in the National
Theater. at its first concert here this
season. It was a large and critical audi
ence which greeted the orchestra
The soloist OF the afternoon was Her
man Sandy, vioIoncenist The opening
number OF the programme was the classic
overture, 'Tphigenie en- Abide" OF Gluck
eXquiSitely performed and given with
grace and finish. It was followed by the
Symphonic Fancasuque" Of Hector Ber-
lloz. which formed a contrast at once
striking and distinctive. This work APP
peared 10 show the full capabilities Of
this orchestra, which seems 70 have a
living. beating heart.
Mr.. Pohlig has a temperament which
stirs his audience 20 the fullest HIS
reading Of the various movements OF the
splendid work Of Berlioz was that Of
man Of wide learning. great musical APP
probation and knowledge. both poetic and
dramatic feeling. and wonderful sym
pathy with his players.
Nothing could have been more simple.
and az the same time more dignifed,
than tho playing OF In the Country"
and nothing could have been more tragic
and dramatic than the March 20 the
Sca6old." The last movement OF the
symphonic. The Witches Sabbath" was
weird, and strong IN its conception and
execution.
The last number. Smetana's symphonic
poem. ION the Shore of Moldau." com
pleted the programme. This number IS
one seldom, If ever, heard in Washing
ton, and 1t Is g composition TO DO warmly
welcomed again. Mr.. Pohligs great art
was triumphant Ia this, and he was en-
Enthusiastically recalled again and again.
Mr.. Sandby quite startled the public
with his apparent youth. his great talent,
and his capability as a cellist. His per-
Torrance OF the difficult Boellmann's
Symphonic Variations for cello and or
chestra was mastery.
And not the smallest part Of his success
was the mastery playing OF the orches-
ira. Il never dominated. WAS always
supporting, and throughout gave the
cello tho predominance which the com
poser intended It should have. Mr..
Sandy made an emphatic and pro-
nOunced hit and the conductor graciously
overstepped all rules OF his concerts and
had him play a second time. Mr.. Standby
is a distinct acquisition to the Phila-
delphia Orchestra and 10 the large CO.
terie OF artists now engaged with Amerl-
can organizations. This is his first ex-
perience in playing with an orchestra, as
he is known in Europe only as a soloist.

The fat mans stomach fails to burn

the proper. thing. But you cannot exer-

That the Chinese are the equal intellect

the idol worshipers." said DR.. Cham
bers- when I went to China, had
formed an opinion OF tho Chinese race
as being degraded morally and repulsive
physically. But since my stay in the
Orient I have had experiences which
shed a great deal Of light on tho Chinese
character, and changed my views COM
pletely. I now regard them as a great
people not because Of numbers. but be-
cause or their individual superiority. We
must not despIse tho IDOL worshiper.
The more I see Of them the more 1 ap-
preclate their capacity for deep and calm
thought, and their ideal merit morally"
