CALLS REFORM AT
AUBURN A MYTH
Ex-convict Writes to Magazine
Accusing Present Head
Of Failure.

NEW YORK, April b.-Prison reform
at Auburn is a myth, according to Ben
iamin J. I.egere, writing In the current
issue OF the New Republic. Iegere was
in Auburn at the time Warden Thomas
Mott Osborne, of Sing Sing, wa a vol
untary prisoner. He implies that Os-
bprna failed to carry out his promises
to bring punishment to two guards who
brutally beat a boy prisoner.
When Mr. Osborne was told of I.e-
CERES version OF this incident he said
Il was untrue. and that "Legere is an
unmitigated liar who does not desc rye
any consideration He said that while
I.egere was In Auburn he tried to run
the Mutual Welfare League of the pris-
oners, and. failing in that. turned
against il. He had absolutely no stand
ing among the other men. he said.
In his article which he calls ''Eris-
ons as Pleasure Resorts" Legere says
that some editorial writer's seem afraid
that our prisons are becoming SO hu-
name that men will try to break into
instead OF out Of them.
I'm spite OF all the newspaper stories

Balalaika Orchestra
Gives Concerts Here

Under the direction of Alexander Kiri-

gave concerts at the Columbia Theater
yesterday afternoon and night
The soloist was Gregory Besrodny, a
young violinist. who fulfilled the prom
ises of excellence held out by previous
notices. His numbers were "Rondo
Capriccioso'' by Saint-Saens. ro-
nance by Rachmaninoff. and a gavotte
ct musette by Tar Sulin. One of Cho-
pins nocturnos was given as an
encore.
Owing, perhaps, to the too dominating
piano accompaniments, some Of the
numbers were nlarred in effect. Al
though every effort was made to give
the attention to the young vioiinist, II
was almost impossible not to notice the
piano.
The Balalaika Orchestra is somewhat
like our own glee clubs. the only diff
ference being that the music was
tyrhcally Russian and given with a snap
and swing which Is in itself character
site of another people.

him back, The police finally arrived
