But Nevin's was a genius that Powered

pressed the spirit which informed his
work throughout his life. Love rules

perience. a credo neither very deep nor
very solemn: rather the outburst of a soul
whose delicate. almost feminine, SENSIBLE

the first five or six. His was not

did IL plumb the depths or spiritual
suffering In IL there was neither con-
Stunning passion nor philosophic refiec-
ton II was not for him to prove the
New Worlds musical Whitman, TO
sweep away the miasmc vapors rising
from a decadent civilization. Neither
in mind nor in body was he OF the stun
that conquers the will OF man, yet
withal he was one of the sweetest and
sincerest singers of his day. In Inc
Tribune for January 16, is9S, James
Huneker wrote review of Mr.. Nevin s
concert in Madison Square Garden
Concert Hall, and in his review gave
a criticism of the composers work
which may we'll stand as the final word.
WORDS OF Mr.. HUNEKER.
This was Mr.. Huneker's review:
After some preliminary bitches Mr.
Nevin's concert in the hall Oh Maolson
Square Garden got under way about 43o
o'clock yesterday afternoon. The au-
dience. composed chiefly OF women, was
evidently bent on doing gracious homage
TO Mr. Nevin's lyrical gifts, so there was
applause in profusion and the rather anna
flourish singing did not seem TO anect the
enthusiasm in the slightest. The scheme
of music was a long one, chiefly songs
interrupted by some piano pieces, COUPE
of violin numbers and serenata trio Tor
strings and piano. Mr.. Neyln Is na NAVE
OF Pittsburgh: was for time resident
of Boston and studied In Germany and
France. His talent is OF slender girth,
but what there is is individual: HIS mel
ody-making is pleasing, piquant, put never
profound: ne has sense OF pretty color
and agreeable rhythms. He plays the
piano In a finished manner, his touch pc
ing musical and exquistely light IN
purling passage work. But the note OF
virility is absent. and in work of more
ment is neither logical nor weighty. Ac-
cept him for what he is and one may
SAVIOR with interest his unquestionabe
ability for penning lyrics in the. lighter
vein. musical Praed or Locker. ne
sentimentalizes to excess. deriving chiefly
from Schumann and latter-day French
men. Yet his formal sense In his songs
is admirable and in such specimens as
was White with Moonlight" "In a
Bower and "Oh, That We Two Were
Maying" he is wholly likable sweet
poetry suffuses his every bar. HIS
piano music has charm of refined fem
mime sort, and its vogue is natural. 1t is
Chaminade done with broader and even
subtler brush, and 1t is wholly innocent
OF dramatic depth. The composer should
go further and above all avoid the
slightly artificial. withal high-bred. at
q well-equipped musician, and his har-
monte sense is refined TO fault.
1T is TRIBUTE, NOT CRITICISM.

A SUMMING UP
OF NEVIN'S LIFE

charmingly brought out the Inmate sweet
ness OF his friends nature, Its naive
charm. its almost feminine delicacy. The
Life" is largely made UP OF Nevin's own
letters, and no better method could have
been adopted for the unwilling OF the
composers gentle nature. In fact, In his
letters, as in his music. are displayed
very genuine II slender talent-a whimsi-
cal originality which Mr.. Huneker has
very aptly compared to that OF Chami-
made. In fact. throughout his life the
feminine element was uppermost in Ethel
bert Nevins art, in itself perhaps no
mean explanation OF the astonishing pop
ularity of the composer Of "Narcissus"
and THE Rosary" in a country and
century so largely dominated by woman.

HAVE YOU PAID YOUR

desire to call your attention to the
fact that the last half of the 1918
taxes is now due and must be paid not
later than July 6. 1914.
Although 1t is plainly stated on the
notices sent out in December, that
penalty of four per cent would be at
tached to the hst half. if only one
half was paid. find that my mail is
full OF checks for the last half only, the
penalty being omitted Or If any at
tention at all is paid to the four per
cent 1t is regarded as four per cent
interest. and not penalty, and there Is
a vast difference. Simply multiply by
four and point off four places to ascer-
tain the penalty.
II you did not pay your first half, you
must add 10 per cent for the penalty
and then figure Is per cent interest since
Jan. IL. 1914, as the new law required
the tax collector to sell the delinquent

them to individuals as they care to
