the writer talked all named that figure.
And such an audience. Men. women
and children listened with rapt a,ten-

the crowd. there was o silence that was
reverent during eaen number. AT the
opening note OF The Star Spangled
Banner every body rose, uncovered. and
at. the end, when America" was played,
the action was reeplted. The audience
was cosmopolitan. Many tongues other
than English were overheard. Native
born and adopted citizens of many ma
tionalitles freely c~ommingled.
Any music lover who thought there
were over-many symphony concerts last
season must have had his Jaded appe-
lite refreshed by observing the devotion
and enthusiasm of last nights audi

performance by Mr.. Nolpe and his
nifty men. The programme Included
B~eethoven's "Leonore' overture No. 3,
two movements from Tschaikowsky's
fifth symphony, Rlmsky Korsakoff's
Spanish Caprice" the prelude to Jul

wide where he crossed it. followed nine
pluclSy but unsuccessful attempts to

Numerous attempts have been made
to swim the channel since 1875, when
Capt. Matthew Webb swan from Dover
to Calais in 81 hours and As minutes,
but no one has been able to duplicate
Captain Webb's feat until today.
Burgess has been trying for several
years to emulate the feat of Captain
Webb in 1875. having first tried on
within a mile of the goal. only to be
swept away by the receding tide
On this occasion. which Burgess de-
clared would be his last attempt. he
started from South Foreland at 1850
o'clock yesterday morning. A strone
tide was flowing and the swimmer ha
a tough task to get nast Goodwin

-Four hours after his departure the
swimmer was only six miles on his
way. This was the last heard of him
until the news of his success in reach
ing the French shore arrived here and
great anxiety was being felt as to his
fate. A heavy fog enve1oped the chan :
mel last night and the crossing steam :
ers failed to sight the swimmer.
