ADJUSTMENTS
Lostvn oyMpuony concert.

With Nine. Schuma nm Heink as its so
ing concert Of the Boston Symphony Or
chestra at the New National Theater yes
terday afternoon would be presented t.
an audience that taxed the capacity
the house and manifested it's pleasure i.
a program that was especially enjoyable.
The striking number of the orchestral
program was perhaps Beethovens SYM
phony ''ErOica,' the second movement of
which, the ''Marche Funebre." and also
the "Sherzo,'' seemed most effective De-
bussy's THE Afternoon of a Faun' was
delightfully."- rendered, and SO deep was
the interest in the symphonic poem that
the large audience fingered, almost with
out exception. to its close. which was long
after the streets were lighted.
Nine. Schumann-Heink gave varied
selection of song with her accustomed
high regard in which she is held by Wash
ington music lovers. Her first number,
the aria "Andromache's Lament" from
Bruchs Achilles" won her quite an ova-
ton.
Her splendid voice was also much in
evidence in the remainder of her program,
which included Wagner's .'Traume,' or
chestrated by Felix Mottl; the List ar
rangement of Lenaus die Drei Zigue-
ner'' and THE Young Nun" of Schubert.
Mr.. Fielder welded the baton for the
orchestra, which means that the beauties
of the music and the execution of the or
chestra were fully up to the standard of
the Boston organization.

Magazine Writer Scored.

w. F. Cochran of Baltimore made a
scathing attack on a magazine writer
who charged that missions have been
spending 81 for expenses for every 81
used to convert the heather. referring to
these as '-outlandish" statements from
a minister who had not been able to OBJ
tain a position.
He urged the members Of the church
to get together and refute such charges,
following the example of the Catholic
Church. and proposed a central commit
tee whose purpose should be this very
thing.
The cleaning up Of America is divine
mission, he said, and there must be q
reawakening of the spirit of laymen
throughout the country to accomplish
the ends of the church. From all parts
of the earth the church now shows a
decadence in power" he said, and 1t
becomes necessary to interest men and
women in the mission movement" He
urged that the laymen get together and
take their place in the leadership of the
church.
That the evangelism of the world is
strictly a mans job. was the statement
of w. r. Butler of Mauch Chunk, Pa
Let every man give the price of good
cigar once a week to missions, he said
land the funds of the church would be
trebled."
