Big Red Fox.

Westbury, L. l., Oct. 27.-About
forty members of the hunting colony
enjoyed a brief gallop through the
woods this morning after the American
foxhounds OF the Meadow Brook Hunt
Club, which chased big red fox for
almost an hour before he finally went

The run was one Of the best that has
ever been held by the Meadow Brook
club, and the crowd Of society people
in the saddle had more steady jump
ing than they have enjoyed so far this
year. Usually fox will run in such
a manner that the field can go slowly,
and at the same time hear and see the
hounds, but this reynard made a
straight point for his den. and never
stopped until he reached IT.

A PIANIST'S FIRST
NEW YORK CONCERT
Promise and Fulfilment in the
Case of Lester DOnahue.

Audiences lured into concert rooms
by managerial v'iles are not often made
to feel that they are assisting, as the
French say, at an occasion which they
may some day look back upon with
pride. As a rule, il must be confessed,
these audiences, like the professional
juries of our courtrooms, are not dis
tinguished by high intelligence or
marked powers of discrimination. Cen
orally they betrsy their character by
their conduct-by applauding indis-
criminately, realizing that their duties
are those of claque, or inappro-
priately showing that they are ignorant
of the music that is offering them.
Such an audience, which recently over
flowed the room and filled the plat
form, caused manifest embarrassment
to an artist by making a vociferous noise
where silence alone would have been the
tribute which the artist coveted, since
il would have De ,n the only evidence of
the intelligent appreciation of his work.
which gave value to the approval of
his hearers. Il is therefore always
worthy of note wnen an artist Of whom
the public knows Lothing not only wins
intelligent appreciation, but holds the
attention of his hearers TO the end and
incites inquiry as TO who he is and
where he came from.
There was a case like this in Aeolian
Hall yesterday afternoon when Lester
Donahue gave a concert of pianoforte
music. Trumpet fanfares had not pre-
coded him, but after he had played
Beethoven's "Eroica" variations and
the unfamiliar sonata in F-sharp minor
by Brahms, those in the audience who
l.. oanI r,fapnfnr+a nj x-fp IA
and what il means were filed with
curiosity to know who the player was
They began inquiries on the part Of
even the recorders of such doings and
it developed that Mr.. Donahue was a
young man from Los Angeles and
pupil for the last two and half years
of Rudolph CAM. To learn these facts
was gratifying, but TO hear Mr.. Dona-
hue play was more than gratifying ir-
respective of pride in his nationality;
for he displayed a talent far beyond
the ordinary special talent for the
instrument which he has chosen as his
medium of communication and a musl-
cal nature which has not mistaken its
vocation. He has in him the qualities
which make artists as distinguished
from mere virtuosi-fne instincts for
rhytnm and emotional color: correct
taste; high intelligence; healthy feel
ing; sentiment free from sentimental
ity; command of the beautiful So
norities Of the pianoforte; a manly
style and an unaffected attitude toward
his art and toward the public. Not yet
fully mature artisticslly. he will de-
yelop soon into one worthy of a place
among the aristocracy of his profess
sion. II. Z. X.

MARIA GAY
SINGS CARMEN
Spanish Contralto Again
Gives Her Idea of
the Gypsy.

The Carmen Of Nine. Maria Gay is
not unknown TO US. Seven years ago
Signor Gatti-Casazza imported her to
show US how Carmen should be played.
IL was Sgnor Gattts first year in New
York, and therefore we forgave him.
Later Nine. Gay went TO Boston and
succeeded in creating a Juror in the
midst Of the Browning societies. Bea-
con Street tea tables grew hectic over
this new Priestess of Bizet, and the
philosophy of Prosper Merimell showed
evidence Of being about TO supplant that
Of Emerson. Probably Nine. Gay her
self was surprised at the philo-
sophical tempest which she had
created. She had intended her Carmen
to be but frankly sensual embodiment
of a girl of the people-she found it
made the symbol of cult. She did
not know that in the Back Bay the
senses are universally explained away
in terms OF the soul, the Boston
Brahmins having long ago disposed Of
the body, which they found vulgar and
inconvenient. In short, Nine. Gay,
happy, though somewhat bewildered,
had discovered New England.
Nine. Gays Carmen as redisplayed
last night by the Boston Opera Com
pany at the Manhattan Opera House
has changed little in essentials. IL is
less vulgar in externals, but utterly
wanting in any clarm or allurement.
She plays the part as a heavy Spanish
peasant woman, forgetting that the
music is by a Frenchman. As a con-
sequence she puts herself entirely out
of key and sends BiZet packing bag and
baggage. With the music going one
road and the actress another, the re-
suit is Neutrality-suspicious. ensues
and, in Nine. Gays case, alas. boredom
as well. Vocally she was perhaps
slightly more satisfying, though last
night there were many breaks in her
phrasing.
Giovanni Zenesello gave a moving i'm
personation of Don Jose. His singing
Of the Flower Song" was ardent and
moving Jose Iardones gave a really
brilliant performance Of Escamillo, and
his rich, even voice gave great pleasure.
4 special word of praise should be
given to Paolo Ananian for his Dan
cairo.
Mr.. Ananian has sung for six years
at the Metropolitan. but no one ever
realized he possessed either the voice
or the dramatic abilities he displayed
last night. Last night he found HIM
self There was also a Micaela but
that is another story. Mr.. Moranzoni
again gave evidence of his abilities OF
leadership. II the chorus had sung as
well as the orchestra played the gem
eral ensemble would have been inn
proved. In the fourth act Nine. Paw
iowa and her company gave series of
Spanish dances. and gave them with
rare fire and beauty. This was the
