HAROLD BAUER Wins
SUCCESS in RECITAL
Famous Pianist Presents One of the
Most Delightful Programs of
the Season.
VARIETY OF A WEALTH OF TONE

One of the most delightful of all the
musical programs of this season was the
piano recital yesterday afternoon at the
Masonic Auditorium by Harold Bauer
One would go long way TO hear Mr..
Bauer play the Bach Suite in G minor
and the Schumann Carnival" to say
nothing of Chopin's '.Barcarole" and the
1ntermezzo in L minor and "Capriccio in
b minor of Brahms.
In the Carnival scenes the oppor-
portunity for the employment of every
variety of a wealth of tone production
and of poetic readings was fully realized
in Mr.. Bauer's playing. The resources Of
the piano in these scenes seemed mex
haustible. Yet there was no slightest
lapse into the superpicturesque-a temp
tation very great in music of the Car
nival'' type Every scene is a picture,
and Mr.. Bauer gave distinction and char
acter to each.
1t must be said that the piano did not
respond quite musically to the dynamic
force used in the last of these scenes
''The March of the Philistines.''
The Bach suite, of old-time dances. with
a prelude, Mr.. Bauer gave with the sound
musicianly appreciation of Bach. that one
has been taught TO expect of him. Always
with simplicity and exquisitely rounded
finish, he brought out the stateliness
of the "Allemande," and "Sarabande,"
the coquettish vivacity of the "Courante."
and the energetic abandonment Of thu
''Gigue." Greatest of all and above all
in dainty loneliness was the gavotte Of
that suite. Never was grace made more
rhythmically lovely, nor music to take on
the grace of nymphs in the dance.
The Chopin "Barcarole" is rarely heard,
and it Is worthy a more intimate &C.
quaintance. Perhaps one would forego
so intimate an acquaintance as has been
forced upon concert goers of-say this
The Washington herald., 1914-02-15

ballade in G minor-which notwithstand-
ing its persistent determination to get
into every piano program, was a charm
ing renewal of old acquaintanceship yes
terday. Quite the most piquantly en-
chanting of all the short pieces was
Brahms "Capriccio." II pianists would
but mine deeper, perhaps Brahms might
be one day fundamentally discovered. The
Schubert improptu-not often heard now
a-days-was lifted out. of the abject COM
monplace into which, under student per-
Torrance. it has fallen, into its right
full place.
The Saint-Saens "Etude" in the style of
waltz, is full of sensuous scintillating
charm. Mr.. Bauer made the most Of it.
Mr.. Bauer is of the rare type of artist, to
whose technic the listener magically and
mercifully forgets to attend. Whether he
is all-powerfully equipped we could not
say; one simply cannot attend to such by
the-way mechanics when an artist of Mr..
Bauer's greatness is giving the highest
possible reading of a thoroughly good
program.
There was great enthusiasm manifest
ed, but Mr.. Bauer would not be wooed
until the very end of the performance,
when he played as an extra the f minor
''Scherzo' of Mendelssohn.

MISS CAREY Tells
OF INJURY RECEIVED
Gives The Washington Herald Her
Version of Occurrence in
Patent Office.
ALMOST PARALYZED, SHE SAYS

Miss Alice Carey, clerk in the Patent
Office. who has been in Washington
Branch Sanatorium since September
with injuries she alleges were inflicted
by George A. Degnan, clerk who
worked beside her, last night gave her
version of the case.
Il am a victim of an accident that
does not seem strange to my physi-
Clans" said Miss Carey, because there
are records of somewhat similar cases
in medical annals. Briefly, 1 may de-
scribe the injury by saying that a man
jabbed his finger against one of my
vertebrate, at the base OF the neck, dis
locating the vertebra and causing il
to press againstsa nerve that has Sc
riously affected my sight.
Doctors say / will recover. / be-
Iieve / will. When l was hurt 1 was
almost paralyzed. My head was drawn
back as though by check rein.
had no muscular power, and literally
had to be carried"
Miss Carey recIined on pillows in her
bed at the sanatorium. She spoke with
apparent difficulty. The lights were
shaded to protect her eyes. A bandage
was on her left temple, where a slight

the left eye, which she says is most
seriously affected.
Miss Carey related the details of how
the injury was inflicted. repeating the
account as she told it in her formal re-
port to Commissioner Ewing, pub
lished exclusively by The Washington
Herald yesterday.
1T has been stated that Mr.. Degnan
pIayfully tapped me on the back OF the
neck. That is untrue. He jabbed me
with his finger. and there was the
strength of a man twenty-one years
old behind each of several jabs. I APP
pealed to him to stop. There was moth
ing more that a woman could do. He
laughed and said: 7 can't STOP
at has been stated that I boxed Mr..
Degnan's ears That also Is false. re-
monstrated only verbally. and the last
time that he jabbed me, was too badly
injured to box his ears. could only
grope for chair. for the room seemed
to be getting dark.
ct has been said that Mr.. Degnan
apologized. that 1 laughed in forgiveness.
and that the other clerks thought the in
cident closed Mr.. Degnan has not apollo
gized to me since the injury, except in a
letter / recently received from him.
1T has been asserted I demanded that
Mr.. Degnan reimburse me for my lost sal
airy and pay my hospital and a ,ctor's
bills. That is a malicious faIsehood, and
I employ the adjective thoughtfully. l
have demanded nothing from Mr.. Deg
nan. have not even asked anything
from him.
"Contrarily, 1 heard a rumor that Mr..
Degnan was to be dismissed. I asked my
friends to do all they could in my behalf
to prevent the dismissal Of the man. 1t

dismissed. ! understand he was suspend

AERO-AMER|CAN CUL[|NCS

In an address before the Wabash
Avenue Y. M. G. A., former Governor
Charles s. Deneen of Illinois, review
ing the negros activities in this coun-
try during the half century of his free
dom, told the exact truth when he said
that the record was one of which no
member of the race need be ashamed
The sudden stepping from "paternal
and protective" condition. where the
negro was entirely a dependent and
his Individual efforts were repressed
to the utmost by the very nature of
his condition, to status of freedom
made his problem an unusually diff
cult one.
When 10 the normal difficulties OF
such a condition were added the nat
ural race prejudice which existed and
still exists. and the bitter prejudices
engendered OF four years of bloody
civil strife. 1t Is plain enough that the
negro's problem was one of the hard
est that history records. Thus. how
ever. is the negro's record summa-
rized by Mr. Deneen:
1t Was under these adverse condi-
tons that the negroes OF the United
States began their uphill struggle for
Industrial independence. Fifty years
have elapsed since that time: very
brief period In the calendar of racial
or national progress. and yet In that
time think 1t can safely be said that
the advancement made has been some
thing which the American people. and
those OF your own race In particular,
may well be proud"
The conclusion reached by Mr..
Deneen is that the negro has made
good That must be the conclusion
OF every unbiaSed observer This
fact gives promise that. despite noisy
and offensive agitators among the
whites and the impulsiye and frequent
~ iil-timed and illjudged utterances
OF some negro leaders, we shall ulti-
mately reach a solution Of the race
problem through the fairness and toll
eranea of the majority OF the domi-
nant race and the Industry and con-
tinued usefulness and progress of the
great majority OF the negroes.--Chi-
