A HALLOWEEN STORY
BY IRVING r.. BACON.

Tina had never been happy. She
had always been the drudge, the Gin
derella. Work, reproaches and then
more work, such was her lot. Her
father was me- er-do well; heI
mother, a life-ensoured scold. And
the pinch of poverty was ever felt;
for George, Tina's brother, the fam
ily's sole support was crippled and
never earned more than So a week.
He was a sort of all-around, handy
man in Jenklns's country store.
Tina seemed to wax fairer on work
and seedlings. The people of the lit
tie town, who had first pitied, then
grew Indifferent to the little girl, woke
up one day to a realization of the fact
that she was beautiful. They began
to take note of her big, wistful blue
eyes and the masses of auburn hair,
framing her cameo-like pale, pretty
face.
George jenkins, one of the sons of
the storekeeper. had been Tina's only
playmate when they We're toddlers.
AS they grew older, George developed
a fondness for adventure BY the
time he was fourteen the confines of
his native town had become too mar
row for his ambitious views. He ran
away.

CHARITIES WORK
/ SHOWS INCREASE,
BUREAU REPORTS
Police Commended for Aid in
Reducing the Number of
Beggars.

A substantial increase in the work
OF the Bureau of Associated chari-
ties is reported in the year book is
sued today, $10,46759 having been
spent In the last year. This amount
was used in several ways. In more
than 1000 instances emergency rel eff
was given, while POI families were
helped by continued relief, which, in
some cases, took the form of weekly
allowances. In telling of this phase
of the work the book says:
THE Newark bureau does not be-
lieye, however, that relief of distress
by direct gifts is all of charity; it
believes that it is only a part and in
the long run minor part, though
vitality important in certain cases.
The real object of charity is or ought
to be, to make itself unnecessary; it's
purpose is to make not dependents
but independents"
A. w. MacDougall, the superintend-
ent, in his report shows the active
part taken by the bureau in relieving
distress caused by unemployment.
This was a special feature of the So
ciety's work last winter. About ST.
500 was raised and expended for this
purpose, a large share of the fund be-
Ing raised through the cooperation
of the churches.
On the topic of mendicancy Mr..
MacDougal has considerable to say,
pointing out that the city sis reap
ing the benefit of the excellent work
done by the police in the suppression
of public begging" He further states:
AS a result of cooperation between
the mendicancy squad and the bureau
about 300 of the 600 begggars arrested
during the year were investigated.
and the actual facts regarding their
necessities were ascertained.
ut is significant that less than one
half dozen of this total number had
any favorable facts In their history.
and in but three or four cases could
recommendation be made to the judge
for release. All the facts ascertaiued
indicate that public begging is a false
unnecessary and an imposition on the
public"
Stress is laid on the fact that the
bureau is cooperating with all the
agencies for social betterment and
with public officials. Hospital So
cial service is urged, and it is sug-
geeted that the city should assume a
larger share of responsibility in the
care of dependents in cases where
there is no possibility of building up
a normal family life. and for depend
ent children and cases of incurable
men.
All the forms of personal service to
the poor are told of in various ways
by the different workers. including
the. district secretaries. visiting
housekeeper and provident saving
fund collector Tho report closes with
O. financial accounting of all funds.

PADEREWSKI thrills
AUDIENCE At RECITAL
Boston Symphony Orchestra Closes
Final Concert of Season at New
National Theater.
SPLENDID PROGRAM IS GIVEN

The symphony concerts for this season
closed yesterday afternoon with the last
performance OF a series by the Boston
Symphony Orchestra, DR.. Karl Muck con-
ducting Mr. Paderewski was the solist
and from the appearance of the ap-
proaches to the National Theater at 4:3I
o'clock. some State function might have
attracted the thrOngs.
The Tschaikowsky Symphony No. 4
opened the program
OF the second number the 'Siegfried
Idyl'' of Wagner, one of his few purely
orchestral works. little need be said.
except that il was written to commemo-
rate the birth of his son. Seigfried, and
that II is dramatically considered a min
iature reflection on the third book of
The Ring" The scoring Is light. and
the music throughout has the delicacy
and fineness Of texture of the string
quartet.
The third number on the program was
the .I'Apprenti Sorcier' of Dukas. This
extremely dramatic piece was given here
by the Philharmonic Orchestra about a
month ago. It depicts the comical-trag gic
straits of the magician's apprentice. who
in the absence of his master calls into
being a power that soon wakes beyond
his control The music is inspired by a
poem of Goethe The subject is of that
simple nature that lends itself easily to
musical representation. Dukas has gum
moned the most widely diverse tonal
imagery to his aid in making up his pic
ture. which for the purely concrete Is a
match for Richard Strauss in his most
daring moods DR.. Muck gave a vera
cious- spirited rendering of the work.
The program closed with the piano con-
certo by Mr.. Paderewski: the composer
at the piano. The work is built on broad
lines: the orchestra equally sharing with
the plano in the interest of the perform
ance The series of brilliant climaxs of
power to a most brilliant close. The
Romanza affords Mr. Paderewsh ample
scope for the skilful handling of those
soft dynamics with which he begins some
of his most telling piano effects; also for
the artful combined lingering and breath
less Fastening of his sublime passages.
The last movement OF this concerto is a
triumph of brilliancy; and here as in
parts of the first movement Mr.. Paderew-
ski made the piano in his powerful dyna-
mics almost rival in volume of the
orchestra itself.
Enthusiasm went mad. and when Mr..
Paderewski came out finally after sew
eral recalls and sat down at the piano
again. a cry OF delight went up from
the excited audience. Mr.. Paderewski
gave the Chopin Prelude No Il, and with
out rising from the piano. went into the
D fiat Etude. Again he was recalled,
and after sufficient insistence played the
Schumann 'Nachtstuck No. l." Alto
gether 1t was q great afternoon.
