the noise spoiled the hearing OF the
symphony for others. The program
arrangement was evidently made so
as to permit Mr.. Kubelik TO get
through his numbers earlier. The
playing of Grieg's THE Last Spring"
for strings only, gave an opportunity
for the orchestra to display beauu-
full singing quality OF tone that was
one OF the most satisfying things
about the work of the players through
out the program. Such beauty OF tone
has not been excelled by any visiting
orchestra this season. IT was notice
able from the very opening bars or
the overture and predominated every
number until the close. Mr.. Stransky
is valuable addition to Americas
list of great conductors, list that has
cornered the cream of the European
market. He conducts with authority
and individuality. reads the scores
with freshness and virility, and sue
ceeds in getting the very best out or
his men.
Kubelik was at his very best also.
He played witH such perfection or
tone and technique, such marvellous
mastery OF his beautifully-toned vio-
lin that the audience seemed TO be
under a spell that was broken only
when enthusiasm burst into applause
that made the old armory ring and
brought the artist back too many
times 10 count. Kubelik played Men
dessohn's concerto in Z minor, which
every student OF the violin hopes one
day to learn, and which only Kube-
lik can play as the composer might
wish to hear 1t. and Saint-Saens In
PRODUCTION and Capriccioso, both with
orchestral accompaniment. AS it Is
all too infrequent treat for Detroit
music-lovers TO have pianist play
with big orchestra, so it is with a
violinist, hence these numbers were
rare privilege to hear. In granting
short encore, Kubelik played it 10

Kubelik and Orchestra

There was only one cause for re-
greet in connection with the musical
feast provided Saturday evening, in
the Light Guard armory, by the New
York Philharmonic society orchestra,
with Jan Kubelik, as special soloist,
and that was that the visit of the or.
chestra. the oldest in America, should
have been so long deferred The or

the keenest anticipation of pleasure

Detroit, a pleasure that was gener-
ously realized. Large numerically, the
orchestra is made up Of the highest
class players, and under the baton OF

work was a constant delight.

years ago, and its conductors have

PALACE STILL STANDS EMPTY
Erected In 1902 for French Audit De

I. Unoccupied.

:, The Paris Matin tells a curious
story of French government red tape.
It says that in 1902 the government
decided to create a special audit de-
partment, and a list of nominations to
the various posts was drawn up. An
aged reservist was appointed con-
cierge of new building erected for
the department in the Rne iCambon.
He was told to take charge at once.
The building was not quite finished.
but within a month or two everything
would be in order Proudly the re-
servist took up his quarters in the
vast unfinished palace. For days he
walked through the immense building
without seeing another human being.
Fortunately he had taken the precau-
ton to bring with him kitten and a
canary. For two years he saw no
one and heard nothing, although he
received his monthly salary with mill
tary punctuality. In 1905 the architect
rushed in and breathlessly remarked
that little furniture would be brought
into the building and it would then
Immediately become a busy hive. The
kitten had become a gray-haired and
tired-looking cat when, in 1908 the
concierge, wearied by the strain of
waiting, complained to the department
heads. He was soothed by promise
that everything would soon be right.
Finally his patience came to an end,
and he resigned his position. The
empty palace, which was erected at a
cost Of $1,200,000, is still awaiting one
or two slight alterations.
