made by A. c. Lacy after all the states
evidence was in.
Basis for defendants motion was
that nowhere in the states testimony
was there anything to show that DR..

Mr.. Sullivan stated he had twice

which had been sustained by a fall
down stairs. He said he paid for both
adjustments himself and was after

board. which betrayed his expenses al

CURIOUS MUSICAL INNOVATION.
scriahin's Poem of Fire Requires Five
Hearings Before Understood,

Hearings Before Understood.
London Mail: Prometheus: A Poem
of Fire, by Alexander Scriabin, will be
produced in London by the Queens
Hall orchestra soon. This symphonic
poem by the most advanced of the
young Russian composers will occa-
sion a curious innovation.
The composer has declared hat it
requires FIVE hearings to be compre
hended; the orchestra does not prom
ise five performances, but has arrang-
ed to go the unexampled length of
playing the work twice over at a con-
cert. To give the originality of the
music It's right relief a symphony by
Haydn will precede the first perform
ance, and Beethoven's violin concerto
intervenes before the repetition. The
work lasts twenty-five minutes.
M Scriabin, who is 40 years old,
won fame first as a pianist. AS a
composer he has only been known
here by rather C-hopinesqued piano
pieces which gave no hint of his lately
| developed revolutionarism. Promethe-
us, which has been performed In Rus
STA, Holland and Belgium, was to have
been heard at the recent Birmingham
festival. 1t was Withdrawn from the
| programme at the last moment, the
orchestra having, 1t was understood,
failed to master its difficulties in the
| allotted time.
There is a mysterious feature of the
printed score Of the symptoms line
Of notation, placed above the flutes
and allotted to Light. This refers not
to a musical instrument, but to a so
called ~color-clavier. which. according
to the composers idea, should produce
varying color effects on d screen dur
ing the progress of the music. All
analogous idea was Granville Ban
