The artistic ability Of Edwin Grasse
needs no heralding. With the loss OF
external sight there has come to him a
compensating internal vision which has
placed him in the front rank OF American
violinists. His playing last night OF
Couperin's "Chanson Louis XIII ct Pa
vane" was mastery in its dash Of execu-
ton. while the group OF his own compo-
sitlons displayed admirably his gift OF
melodic invention. His "Wellenspiel' is
we'll known but a new Norwegian dance
showed most happily the composers own
joyful spirit.
William Resnikof. a blind BARITONE,
disclosed a voice of admirable quality,
which was especially effective in a group
OF Russian folksongs. Louis Furman

TECK NOMINATION
MEETS CRITICISM
Canadian M. p. Thinks COnnaught
Incumbency Should Not
Be Precedent.
rBy Telegraph to The Tribune J


ottawa, May S.-Objections 10 the prin-
cipe OF appointing royalty TO the office
OF Governor General of Canada. a prin-
cipe which seems to have become estab-
lished by the appointment Of the Duke Of
Connaught, were voiced to-day by Henry
+. Emmerson. who was Minister of Rail
ways in the last Laurier government. Al
the opening OF the House OF Commons
this afternoon Mr.. Emmerson said:
Il would like to ask If the government
has any official information in respect TO
the appointment of Governor General to
succeed the present incumbent Of the
office. / see rumors in the press, and |
presume that the people of Canada would
like TO know what foundation there is
for them. ] hope that the rumors are
not true. Still. l speak individually.
My objection is to royalty. and foreign
royalty, being brought TO Canada II
necessary. | would be prepared to move
a condemnatory resolution
Prime Minister Borden replied.
There has been a telegram received
by HIS Royal Highness the Governor
General, announcing that his majesty has
been pleased to approve Of the appoint
ment of Prince Alexander OF Teck 10 sue
coed his royal highness as Governor Cen
eral."
Mr.. Emmerson undoubtedly voices the
sentiments OF large section Of Cana
dams, although society. in the strict sense
Of the word, welcomes the announcement
Of the coming of the Prince Alexander.
Nothing OF a practical nature is expected
to come from Mr.. Emmerson's outburst'
but the subject is recognized to be live
one in this country.
