MUSIC NOTES

An orchestra of fifty from the
New York Philharmonic Society will
give concert at sis this evening at
the Montclair Theatre. Clarence
Reynolds will conduct. The soloists
will be Maude Klotz, soprano, and
Macmillan Pilzer, pianist The pro-
gram will consist of selections from
Dvorak, Bruch, Bizet and Wagner.
Paderewski, who will give a piano
recital at Kruger Auditorium next
Monday evening, was twenty eight
years old before he played in public
All but the earliest of those twenty
eight years were given to grinding
work, relieved by little pleasure, by
few comforts and by no luxuries.
During the years he spent in Wen
ma, in his final preparation for the
career of virtuoso, 1t was not only
not the uncommon thing, but the very
usual thing for him to spend ten,
twelve and even eighteen hours day
at his instrument, seven days in the
week He found no royal road to
fortune.
When Paderewski is on tour he
rarely touches a piano on the day of
a concert. But ON the days when he
is not playing in public ne spends
never less IMAM SIX hours at ms IN
strument, playing scales and going
over and over and over again
the works which are on his
next program. Usually in this
country he travels in private
car He would rather not, because
he believes that it is not good for his
health, the close quarters, the noises
in the railroad yards and the gen
eral lack of exercise which such
life entails. But without a private
car, he could never cover the terri
tory plotted out for him.
In the end compartment of his car
Is always a small upright piano. In
his own stateroom Is a silent piano.
These instruments he uses constantly
on the days he is not giving concerts,
usually in the afternoon, for Pader-
ewski is a very late riser.

In no line of human endeavOr has the inventive
brain of the scientist contributed more to the worlds
progress than by the creation of the art of telephony
of which the Bell System is the embodiment.
When the telephone was born, nothing analogous
10 telephone service as know ii existed
There tradition to guide, experience to
follow.
The system, the apparatus, the methOds--an
tire art had to be created. The art of electrical
engineering did not exist The Bell pioneers, recog-
nizng that success depended upon the highest engi-
neering and technical Skill at once organized an ex-
perimenta and research department, which is now
directed by staff of over $50 engineers and scien
fists, including former professors, postgraduate stu
dents, scientific nvestigaOrs-the graduates of
20 universities
From its foundation the company has cOntinu-
ously developed the art. New improvements in tele-
phones, swtchbOards, lines cables have followed one
another with remarkable rapidly.
While each successive type of apparatus to the
superficial observer suggested similarity each step in
the evolution marked decided improvement. These
changes this evolution have not only been continu
Gus, but continuing. Substantially all of the plant
now in including telephones, switchboards, cables
and wires, has been constructed, renewed or recon-
structed in the past 10 years.
Particularly in switchboards have the changes
been so radical that installations costing in the aggre
gate millions have frequently been discarded after
only few years of use.
Since 1877 there have been introduced 50 types
and styles of receivers and 70 types and styles of
transmitters. Of the 100000 telephone receivers
and transmtters owned by the Bell Company January
l, 1914, none were in use prior to 1902 while the
average age is less than five years.
Within 10 years have expended for cOnstruc
ton and reconstruction an amount more than equal
to the present book value of our entire plant.

THE GIRL, THE cor, THE BUR-
CLAIR"

-Essanay.
1t all began with newspaper story
of a daring housebreaker. Reading
it at the club to two of his friends,
Jack Hazard makes wager that he
can commit a robbery and get away
with 1t, and Is taken up by Terpin,
with a three-hour limit and a 500
forfeit. Jack doesn't prove himself a
very skillful housebreaker, but he is
a successful strategist, for he secures
the policeman's assistance in making
a window entry into a home.
Once in, he falls over all of the
chairs and breakable bric-a- brac on
his way to the stairway, arousing the
daughter of the house, who seizes q
revolver and holds him at bay while
she telephones for the police. He in
terrupts her by saying he is too tired
to hold his hands up any longer and
that he isn't real burglar but just
out on bet.
This situation appeals to her sense
of humor nightly, so she helps him
escape before the arrival of the po-
lice. Opportunity Offering, he slips
back to her room, secures her Jewels,
snatches a goodby kiss, and tries to
depart through the window of his
entrance; but his policeman friend is
now his irate enemy, and he expert
ences some difficulty in returning to
his club within the allotted time to
win the 800,
The next day he starts out to re-
turn the jewels to their owner, and,
thinking she is a little girl, so small
and slender she seemed, he stops to
buy her doll as a peace offering. He
finds her a perfectly satisfying young
lady, however, and the film ends In
the usual way.

LOng-distance and underground transmission was
the most formidable scientific problem confronting
the telephone experts.
The retarding effect of the earth on the telephone
current often impaired conversation through one mile
underground as much as through 100 miles overhead.
Overhead conversation had its distinct limitations
No possible improvement in the telephone trans
mitter could of itself solve these difficulties.
The solution was only found in the cumulative
effect of improvements, great and small in teIe-
phone transmtter line cable switchboard and every
other piece of apparatus or plant required in the
transmission of speech.
While the limit of commercial overhead talking
had increased from strictly local to over 1000 miles
as early as 1893, it not until 1905 that converse
ton could be had over long-distance circuits of

The next night, when his father and
brother were asleep, he yer to the
closet where the gold was kept and
put it in a bag.
He hurried out Of the house and
down the road, but he was In such

His leg was broken and he could not

loudly for help. In a short time Simon
and his father, hearing his cries, found

Nathan was very much ashamed
when his father and Simon saw the
gold in the bag. and his father said

a son, but Simon begged his father to
forgive Nathan and he consented II
Nathan would promise to work and not
be so lazy.

rich mar because he lost his oppor-
tunity when he was young by not

A generation ago the Senate held a pic
turesque group of history-builders. II in
Guided Conkling, who daily reserved his
appearance in the chamber till the other
senators were seated and the scene set,
and whose majestic march down the mid
die aisle reminded one OF the entrance of
the king in a Shakespearean drama:
Blaine, who had only to rise for a per-
functory motion in order to smite gall
cries with a spell OF expectant silence and
capture the eyes and ears of his coli
leagues: Hamlin, in his old-fashioned
s~wallow-tail coat. whose association with
tho memory of Lincoln seemed to draw
the great war wonderfully near: Edmunds
and Hoar, conserving, In their range OF
thought and speech, the best traditions Of
New England craftsmanship: Hampton
and Bayard, exhaling the flavor of the old
south; David Davis, who twice had held
the fate OF the country IN his hand;
Chandler and Ingalls, and Malone, gueril-
l~a-nghters but powers In their way: Ali
son and Cockrell, Sanders and Gordon,
Voorhees, and Hawley and Hill, and a dog

ZAPATA DELEGATES ARE
GIVEN WARM WELCOME

FL Paso, Tex. Oct. 26.-Twenty-six
revolutionary leaders of southern Mex
leo, representing General Emiliano Ia
pata arrived yesterday at Guadalupe,
where they were greeted by General
Villa. They proceeded to Aguas Ca
~lientes, where the peace conference was
expected to resume its sessions today.
The northern leaders reception OF
the southern conferees was described
in a telegram today as most cordial.
General Pauline MARTINEZ acted as head
of the Zapata delegation. The south
erners were accompanied north by a
committee, headed by General Felipe
Angeles.
General Obrcgon and others of the
Carranza delegation already have re-
turned to the convention city, after a
visit to Mexico City, in which they Sc
cured General CarranZa's answer to the
conventions demands. 1t was expected
that there would be little delay in ter
minating the prolonged discussion since
Carranza has made his final announce
mert of position.

REBEL CHIEFS TO
DEPOsE CARRANZA
Reported Leader of Insurgents
viii Agree to Step Down
Pending Regular EIec-
tionS In Mexico.

Washington. Oct. 27.-Official re.
ports received here today indicated
that the Mexican national convention
at Aguas Calientes would today or
tomorrow depose General Carranza as
first chief and substitute a provisional
president.
American Consul Silliman reported
he was reliably informed OF General
Carranza's intention to retire under
condition that no objections would be
i~nterposed to his candidacy at a regu-
lar election and that the tenure of the
provisional government should De
short.
officials here believed that, while
Carranza refused TO take the initiative
in submitting his resignation, he would
abide by the conventions decision
should 1t vote to retire him. Evidence
Of that was contained in official adj
vices which reached here of Carranza's
making no extraordinary military
preparations.
Conflicting reports had been received
by the state department as to Car
ranza's attitude.
While no confirmation has been re-
ceived of reported disturbances in
Mexico City, official advices give the
general order by CarranZa deposing
many commanders who were Villa ad-
herents in the convention Inc appoint
ing others in their places. Similarly a
decree was issued by Carranza inform
ing all chiefs throughout the republic
that he was still first chief and to
obey only orders from him The con-
vention has discussed that in secret
session, but no report of the result of
it's deliberations has been received.
The wal department today received
from Colonel Hatfield, commanding
American troops on the Arizona Dor
der, a message saying Governor May
torena, of Sonora, was Slowly and
reluctantly and the Yaqui Indians were
defiantly leaving Naco."
The Mexican red papers" are the
latest addition to the publications of
diplomacy. While not bearing the Of
fetal stamp of any of the Mexican fac
tions, theslittle volume, which made it's
appearance today, purports to contain
official correspondence between Car
rama, Zapata, Villareal and others, be-
ing an expose of the great cientif1co
conspiracy to eliminate Don Veneus-

New York, Oct. 2T.-According to pri-
vate dispatches to the New York
World, the Russians have won a de-
cided victory over the Germans at
Warsaw and along the line at
gorod and further south toward the
C~arpathians. The force beaten AT
Warsaw is said to have been the flower
of the German army sent against the
Russians. These dispatches
the German losses in killed, wounded
and captured at 0 10000.
The Germans approached so close 10
Warsaw at one time that their sneils
fell in the suburbs of that city. Inc
hardest fighting was with the FORCES
astride of the railway from Sklernle-
vice to within seven miles OF warsaw.
The Germans apparently mad their
last stand here. Between the villages
of Bloni and P~asechno, the FORMER 70
miles west and the latter IL miles south
of Warsaw. the Seventeenth ana Elght-
zenith German army corps maze ues-
perate efforts at attack, but n Rus
slams continued their advance, sendlng
cavalry round the German left rear ~
infantry on to the left flank from the
fortress OF Nowogeorgiewsk, while otn-
er forces which had crossed h VlstuIa
19 miles south of Warsaw increasingly
threatened their right. The Russian
armies compelled the 10 re-
treat. ......
Strategy of Battle.
When the main object OF the strate-
gle plan. namely, to crush the German
active army force, while leaving the
second rate troops of German reserves
and Austrians to be dealt with later
had been thus achieved, h Russians
moved forward along the whole line,
some $50 miles in length, frern the Car
pathians to the Vistula, and are sun
advancing. This advance quickly drove
back the Austrian forces from the san
river and south of Przemysl the Rus
slams have only to deal with the Aus
trian corps. whom they already have
beaten during the Galician battles. the
broken remnants of those
forces have been pulled together n l
some formation and put under German
command, but their fighting VaIue Is
not in any way increased.
Cossacks Harass Rear.
The Russian pursuit is. being rapidly
pressed; the Cossacks already are at
Iowicz, half way to the German for
titled positions long ago prepared on
the line OF the River Warta. LoWlcz
Is about SO miles west of Warsaw. The
Russian entirely upset the
German plans and compelled them TO
hasten up their corps from far to the
south OF Warsaw, where, according TO
their original plan, they should have
forced a crossing of the Vistula, and
cot in the rear of the Russian lines.
Instead of carrying this strategic
plan these corps had to hasten north
ward TO support those corps which had
undertaken TO march into Warsaw by
q certain date.
In their retreat before the Russian
forces, the Germans abandoned their
wounded and evacuated strongly in
trenched positions where they were ex-
pected TIC make a stand.
Grand Duke Nicholas does not apply
the word victory" to his splendid u C
cess against the German main armies,
Civilians, however. will not hesitate. to
term the German defeat "a rout."
