WOLLE'S RECITAL A
PHENOMENAL SUCCESS.

There can be no doubt about the
great pleasure of the large audience
that greeted DR.. j. Fred Wolfe,
famous disciple of Bach and organist
of Salem Lutheran church, Bethle
hem, Pa. The large assemblage in
st. Johns Lutheran church, Tuesday
evening, evidently came in an eX-
pectant response to the attractive
program announced and was on the
alert to get the fullest enjoyment.
For program, that provided for the
performance of selections from Bach,
Beethoven's "Minuet," Liebstod from
Tristan and Isolde" by Wagner,
Handel's "Gavatte," etc., was sure
ly attractive to the lover of good mu-
sic.
1t was a joyful gathering that lis
tened to the recital and there were
cordial manifestations of delight.
Wolfe is an artist and his inter
pretation of the selections he rem
dered was marked by a rarely dis
eliminating delicacy.
The program was not long, but
sufficiently varied in character to
satisfy at once the most critical and
diversified of tastes.
Volkmen's Lay of the Hero" was
smoothly given with great declara-
ton. Indeed, the players heart from
beginning of the program to the end
was near his fingertips. When Mr..
Wolfe was asked what he thought of
the new organ, he said:
THE two manual organ on which
l gave the inaugural recital last
night in the Lutheran church, was
built by NJ. P. Mailer of Hagerstown,
Nd. The action is tubular pneu-
matte and therefore quick, responsive
and easy. The individual stops are
characteristically varied, so there is
real charm in the flute and string
qualities. The diapason tone is am
pie in breadth and strength, and the
pedal is full-toned. The very soft
stops are of delicious delicacy. In
general, there is no doubt that the
instrument will meet all legitimate
demands made upon it, either for
church or recital USE"

HARRISBURG LETTER


Harrisburg, Jan. 22.-The reform
measures in which the Republican
state convention was pledged in the
platform adopted on May l, at Har-
risburg, were introduced in the
house by S. B. Scott of Philadel-
phia; John r. Jones and T. H. Wal
nut, of Philadelphia.
Mr. Humes, Crawford, put in a
resolution which fixed Jan. '2S as the
time for electing the rules commit
tee and providing that each member
may vote for two members.
The bills are: Public utilities,
child labor, female workers, depart
ment of charities, non-partisan bal
lot and election reforms, and the
constitutional convention resolution.
Drafts of the bills have been pub
lished freely within the past few
weeks, publicity having been one of
the methods adopted by the Republi-
can state committee in fostering
timent for the bills. Briefly the
public utilities bill is to be enforced
by commission that will have wide
powers in compiling public service.
Child Labor Bill,
1t was evident today that the first
split over reform measures will come
over the bill for a convention to
draft a new state constitution. This
bill is favored by the Independent
Republicans and the Democrats have
appointed a committee to help it
along. The regular Republicans
will stand out against a constitution
al convention, having decided to sus-
tain the position taken by Governor
Tener, that needed changes can be
made by amendments to the consti-
tion. The regulars" it became
known today are counting on the
senate to defeat the measure should
it pass the house.
Other Bills.
Among other bills introduced We're
the following: .+sJlF7

ig bill; provides penalty of $500 tc

A LEGAL ACRoBATIC OPINION.

A remarkable incident showing
how the opinion of an attorney on
legal matters can be changed to fit
the occasion is found in the ordin-
ances of the borough of Honesdale
and its Interpretation by the attor-
ney for the Honesdale Consolidated
Water Company.
Ordinance No. 29 provides that no
person shall dig up or excavate any
portion of any sidewalk, street or
highway of this borough without first
having received from the president
of the town council or in his absence
or his inability to act from the street
commissioner a written permit so to
do, which permit shall specify the
conditions and regulations under
which said sidewalk, street or high
way is allowed to be dug up or OPEN
ed.
In accordance with this provision
the town council prepared a permit
in writing specifying the conditions
upon which any person may dig up
or eXcavate the streets. One of the
conditions being that payment of a
fee of so cents meant to defray the
expenses of preparing the blank and
have it executed. The Water Com
pany now refuses to pay the SO
cents, its superintendent having been
advised, as he says, by the attorney
of the company that the company
has a right to dig the streets for it's
own purpose without permission
from the council or the payment of
any fee.
Now the strange part of this af-
fair seems to be that at the time
the above ordinance was adopted
there was two attorneys on the town
council, both of whom voted for the
adoption of the ordinance and one
of these attorneys is now and was at
the time of the adoption of the or
dinance attorney for the water COM
pany.
