SYMPHONY CONCERT
IS WELL RECEIVED
Herr Hammers Ability
Again Demonstrated to
Musical Audience.

The Heinrich Hammer Symphony
Orchestra. presenting a Beethoven
cycle. gave the second OF its series
OF five matinees yesterday at the
Belasco Theater. when an audience
drawn by sheer love of music in
satisfied mood listened TO the inter
probation Of the great master by
musicians who play simply for the
love or the work
1t is a rare combination. but in such
an atmosphere a conductor may &C.
complish much, so II is little wonder
that the latest applicant for the sup
port and consideration OF local musical
lovers is steadily growing in the
favor of the public as the excellence
OF the work becomes apparent
The program included the second and
seventh symphonies and the scholarly
reading OF these masterpieces proved a
triumph for both conductor and players.
There is a sincerity Of purpose and a
musicianly appreciation apparent In Mr.
Hammers conducting, which reacts on
his men and IN turn infects the spirit
Of the audience, every member of which
left the theater yesterday not only en-
thusiastic over the afternoons enjoy
ment, but impressed with the value OF
the undertaking as an educative factor
In the city's progress.

ENGLISHMAN'S POEM
MAY CAUSE TROUBLE
Admission by William Watson That Mrs Asquith Ia
spred His Writings Causes Sensation in London
Change In Ministry Is Not Unlikely

NEW YORK. December g. THE
woman with the serpent's tongue" may
bring a change in the British ministry
and cause one OF the greatest political
and literary sensations England has
ever known, I'm the opinion Of many
person who read today the startling
statement by William Watson. the Eng
lish poet and author Of the poem with
the foregoing title. that the poem was
physically inspired by Mrs. Margaret
Asquith. wife Of the British premier.
and mentally by her stepdaughter, Miss
Vol { Asquith.
Wa tsOn waited until he arrived IN this
country on a visit before admitting the
charge that his now famous poem was
aimed at the Asquiths, thereby remOv-
ing himself temporarily from the center
OF the storm which. cables from Eng
land say, his admission has already
aroused. As long as he was in England
he denied his poem was dedicated 10 the
Asquiths or to any one In particular.
In explaining what led up to the poem,
Watson tells Of a visit ne made TO the
Asquith home last June. when he was
surprised 70 hear Miss Asduith say that
a man named Nash, one Of her father
secretaries. was the man who used to
write c. BIS speeches for him"
BY &C. B." she meant the late Sir
Henry Zimmerman, Premier
Asquith's predecessor, and probably the
best loved Of English premiers since the
DAYS Of Gladstone. Continuing, Miss
Asquith said. according to Watson:
The Washington times., 1909-12-04

do YOU know, / have often wondered
whether some OF those phrases Of C.
BIS that caught on so much, such as
methods of barbarism' and that sort OF
nonsense, really came from C. b or
from Nash"
These expressions BY Miss Asquith, IL
is practically certain, will be taken as
rejecting the sentiments Of the present
premier and cause a storm OF criticism
of Mr.. Asquith.
WatsOn's signed statement regarding
the poem is as follows:
The woman with the serpent S
tongue" Is a composite photograph of
Mrs AsQuith and her stepdaughter,
Violet The poem is "A portrait Of the
physical characteristics Of Mrs AsqUith
and the mentality Of Miss Asquith.
The latter is the voice of the family,
and rules them all. Violet Is the real
official voice speaking with authority
She il is.
A." Who sights the worthiest in the land
Sueers at the just. condemns the brave
And blackens goodness In its grave -
The poet says he attempted TO show
his resentment at the reflections cast
upon the dead premier by Offering to
write in the album of Miss Asquith a
stirring defense of Sir Henry Campbell
Bannerman. Il thought l had flung the
most unfOrgiVeable insult at this fam
ily by this OFFER" Watson says, but "a
his surprise he received a letter from
her daughter would welcome the con
tributiOn 10 her album.
Mrs. Asquith sent other cordial notes
20 the poet, which. I'm the light Of his
dedication Of the poem, he clearly be-

CHEVY CHASE HUNT
HAS GOOD SPORT
Meets at Cabin John Bridge
and Finishes at Chevy
Chase.

Today was another good day with the
Chevy Chase Hunt, for the lOw-lying
mist over woods and pillow lands I'm
proved the ascent nightly without
hurting the going.
There was quite a. large assembly at
Cabin John, Md, not far from the his

arrived. for the master, as usual, has
done all IN his power TO make the day
a success To this end the Saturday
drags are usually laid over open coun-

bright sunshine. the ladies on their spir-
tied mounts, with the smart-lOoking
English hounds, in one Of the most at

bered.
The master or course was out, mounted
on Lord Craven, who has carried him
so we'll this far in the season He
mounted the huntsman with his two
whips in the usually good manner which
makes them the envy of most Of the
hunts in Americ- To them will ride
many Of the Diplomatic Corps and mem
bers of Washington's best society. Miss
NathiIde Townsend was out, as enthu-
siastic over the sport as the huntsman
himself, and she comes in for the lion 3
share too, for her hunting stable has
been augmented of late. and with the
best that can he bought, 50 that she
IS always sure Of good mount. for this

Captain SoWeTby, of the royal navy

tion afforded by a jolly field, good

Of the run is In the open, and no fences
