Kreisler and Boston Symphony.

rare concert was that of the Boston
Symphony Orchestra, with Fritz Kreisler
the famous violinist, for its soloist, at
the New National Theater yesterday
afternoon. Aside from the exquisite
artistry of Mr. Kreisler the great Wen
nese virtuoso, in the rendition of the
Mendelssohn- Bartholdy concerto for vio-
lin in l. minor, the recital was memor-
able for the splendid work of the orches-
ira in the Sibelius symphony in +, minor,
Brahms Academic Festival overture
and GlaZounoff's Overture Solennelle,"
under the direction of DR.. Carl Muck.
The Sibelius work was especially impress
sive, although, perhaps. the Brahms
number was the most enjoyed.
1t was the first appearance of kresler
in Washington in several years. Time
has not changed his marvellous tone and
has served only to ripen the richness of
his art.

ASSA|LS CIVIL PENSIONS
Senator Bailey Favors Instead,
Fair Compensation for
Federal Employees.

Senator Bailey OF Texas condemned
civil pensions in general and pensions for
veteran government employees in particu-
lar in the Senate yesterday afternoon.
A bill proposing to retire the men Of the
life-saving service after long years of
fighting to save lives from shipwrecks
was before the Senate.
LAS We seem now inclined to pension
or retire everybody except the men who
are really entitled to the consideration of
the government, and those are the men
who pay the taxes" Mr.. Bailey began. Il
suppose + ought not to interpose any OBJ
lection to this bill. and l shall not pre-
vent its consideration. If the Senate of
the United States thinks we have reached
time when this class Of employees ought
to follow other employees of the govern
ment onto d civil pension list-for that
is all this Island thus broaden the pre-
cedent and hasten the coming of the day
when everybody who works for the gov
eminent shall likewise draw a pension.
either military or civil. the Senate can
take its own responsibility and say so.
For my part, / am opposed to this
just as l am opposed to all provisions
for the retirement of any man. l be-
lieve today, just as l have always be-
lieved, that every man who serves this
government ought to receive a fair COM
pensation for his services. and he ought
To save ii or spend il according to his
own folly or his own prudence; and then
he ought to suffer the consequences of
his folly if he is foolish or enjoy the
reward of his prudence il he Is prudent.
Il suppose the time will come when we
will contrive some way to pension the
taxpayer. Just exactly how a system for
that can be devised Is past my COM
prehensiOn. But with modern Legislative
legerdemain l have no doubt a way will
be devised to make everybody support
everybody else without anybody working
either for himself or for others"

Stomach or Constipated
Bowels by Morning.

Turn the rascals out-the
headache, the biliousness, the in
digestion, the sick. sour stomach
and foul gases-turn them out
tonight and keep them out with
Cascarets.
Millions of men and women
take a Cascaret now and then
and never know the misery
caused by / lazy liver, clogged
bowels or an upset stomach.
Don't put in another day of
distress. Let Cascarets cleanse
and regulate your stomach; re-
move the sour, undigested and
fermenting food and that misery
making gas: take the excess bile
from your liver and carry out of
the system all the constipated
waste matter and poison in the
intestines and bowo';. Then
you will feel great.
A Cascaret tonight will surely
straighten you out by morning.
They work while you sleep. A
Io-cent box from any drug store

ach and clean, healthy liver and

Tanning of the Shrew."

Delightful in its every detail was the
Sothern-Marlowe presentation of Shakes
peare's perennially popular comedy,
Tanning of the Shrew," at the Belasco
Theater last evening. The mere mention
of it's name brings a flood of recollections
of the famous players whose art is iden-
titled with 1t. Yet when the curtain fell
upon the last act 1t is doubtful If any of
the large audience present could recall
more delightful performance. Mr.. Soth-
erns contrasts of mock temper and tender
love In the role of Petruchio and his fin
ished art in every detail seemed ideal for
the mimic task before him. and when
the submissive Katherine at the close
yielded him the supremacy 1T surely
seemed Miss Marlowe had made her a

acter which has made the organization
