KNEISELS MUCH APPLAUDED
Splendidly Given Concert At.
tracts Large Audience.

In spite of Richard Strauss and Rozen-
kavaliers, pure music still holds up its
head, even in this publicity ridden city.
The Kneises gave their second con-
cert last night at Aeolian Hall, and the
magnet of the opera was only apparent
i'm the presence Of two rows OF empty
seats. All the rest of the hall was
filled with one Of the most intelligent
OF musical audiences.
the programme consisted of Mozart's
quartet i'm + major (No. Breitkopf &
Hartel edition., the Brahms quartet in p
fiat major OPP. 81, and Cesar Franck's
quintet in + minor, i'm which the piano
part was sustained by Michael Won Ia
dora, a new Polish artist
The Mozart and Brahms quartets
were played with all the perfection OF
finish and exquisite balance and ad-
justment of detail for which Mr.. Kneise
and his musicians are famous. There was
never in either the trace of unnecessary
standardization in tone or interpreta-
ton.
Mr.. Zadora proved himself to be an
artist of splendid capabilities, with an
admirable sense Of rhythm and rich
warm tone. lie sustained his part i'm
the quintet in a manner that could
not be eXcelled.

ADVANCE MADE IN GREENLAND
Country Growing and Progressing In
Civilization Through Energy of
Denmark.

The last census Of Greenland shows
that that Danish colony has a total
population of 13,459, as against 1883
In 1861. The increase during the last
ten years is the largest on record for
a similar period. The native popula-
ton. which numbers 13.075. constitutes
almost the entire number OF inhabi-
tants, and immigration is practically
of no consequence. Europeans num-
Der only 3S4. as against 272 in 1901.
The slight increase is due to importa-
ton OF European labor to work some
newly discovered copper mines. OF
the 3s4 Europeans. 10 were born in

Chickens Unmatched.

President Wilson has been counting
some chickens before they were
Matched. But who can blame him
when he has his heart set upon get
ting the currency bill through this
session. His conference with the
finance committee of the senate. in
GLIDING its Republican members. and
his grooming OF other Republican sen
ators with the camelshair brush OF
his soft speech and sunny ideals, has
done some good for his end, but II
has not done what he has fondly
hoped.
No one but the president is inclined
to believe the currency bill will be-
come u law by the end of November.
1t may yet have to be a present from
Santa Claus II IL is TO go through
this year at all The country needs
currency reform. but It does not need
haste In the passage OF a currency
bill. The country needs righting Of
the manifest defects OF the present
system. but It does not need fleeing
to evils that are worse than those
sought TO be rid of. II is not ques-
ton of what the country needs as one
Of what 1t would be getting.
AS long as Mr.. Wilson speaks OF
the country's needs OF currency re-
form he will find Endorsement OF his
sentiments. When he speaks OF the
country getting such reforms as the
administration bin offers he will have
70 look farther than November for
Endorsement by the passage of such
u measure.

PENNY WISE TARIFF.
Ask Yourself What Has the
Country Gained.
New Measure Can Not Reduce the
Cost of Living to Any Appreeiable
Extent. as the Voters Are
Soon to Discover.

II does look as though the trainers
Of the Democratic tariff were penny
wise and pound foolish. They give
up substantial protection for domes-
tic manufacturers they place the
labor of the shops of this country in
competition with that of the cheap
labor of Europe to a definite degree
at least; to Offset the reduction Of
revenues they secure the passage of
an income tax that places taxation
upon the footing of war emergency.
fin return the Democrats gain for
the people the reduction of &c cents
per capita upon the cost of living.
BY a simple arithmetic calculation IT
is proven that estimated annual saw
ing upon items upon which reduction
was made, including the $4,000, 600
when sugar becomes free. totals for
the people $50, 400, 465 as the amount
to be distributed among q 1000 900
population, TO the credit of lowered
cost of living This makes per capita.
as has been said. about &C cents.
Hence the penny saving tariff OF
the Democrats cannot do much to-
ward reducing the cost of living. On
the other hand, II has opened the
way for fresh pooling with an inter
national reach and with the effect
that a number of articles have al
ready advanced in price. Certainly
one needs only 20 scan the price lists
of imported clothing to see that the
greatly cut wool item has not done
anything toward creating effective
competition.
