NINE. SCHUMANN.HEINk
SINGS SONGS
A Popular Singers Messages
That Delight the Many.

The standard of musical taste
which invites enjoyment at the song
recitals Of Madame -Heink IS
rot that dictated by refined intelligence
but by feeling of the primitive and ele-
mental kind. The multitude love her
large and beautiful voice and her big
hearted manner. That her voice and
manner are frequently put to ignoble
uses (ignoble so far as good music IS
concerned) does not disturb her ad-
mirers. That has been obvious for
twenty years or so and vas made plain
again Yesterday afternoon, when she
gave her annual recital IN Carnegie
Hall. The audience was generous IN
size and more than generous in its ex-
preston of approval; sometimes when
IL had least reason for being So as
for instance after Schuberts song
"Wohin ?" That there is something
arch and kittenish in the sentiment Of
that song is a conception which IS prob
ably hers alone. 1t IS q pity. for those
who want 10 keep the singer in theiI
good artistic graces do not want her
to try to be arch and kittenish. Madame
Schumann- Heink sings with more care
than she was wont TO do few years
ago, but she might go a step further
in that direction and slough OIL her
old habits Of exaggerated crescendos
and decrescendos. for the sustained
tones on which she prsctised II yester-
day, showed variety Of pitch and color

OSSIP CABRILOWIrSCH
GIVES FIRST RECITAL
AeoIian Hall Concert Of Music Of
Early Composers.

What promises 70 be one OF the most
interesting series OF concerts Of the
season began yesterday afternoon n
Aeoian Hall, w n Ossip Gsbrilowitsch
gave his opening recital, devoted TO the
clayier composers Of the sixteenth, sew
enteenth aud eighteenth centuries. This
series is to jllustrate the develor ant
of piano music from the days OF the
clavichord and harpsicnord 10 the pres.
ent time. The audience completely
filed the hall and listened with rapt
attention. On the programme Of the
first concert were compositions BY Ave
schools-ths English. the French, the
Italian, the North German and the
Viennese
The English compositions were .
pavone com. ,sed by William Byrde In
honor Of the Earl Of Salisbury and the
minuet from Purcei's Suite in q ma
jor. The grace Of these two numbers
might we'll have brought forth mclan-
choly reiec ION in the minds Of the
Anglo-Saxon portion of tho audience.
Their quiet pastoral beauty was ex-
quisitely broug.t forth by Mr.. Gsbrilo-
witsch. The French school was repre-
scented by Couperin's LES Msisson-
neure." Daquin's IL Coucou" and
Rameau's lie Tamh lrin, ana the
Italian by Miehelangelo Rossi and Do
menico Scarlatti. In these the pianist's
touch was delightfully."- light, and he in
formed all with a gracious sympathy
Of understanding.
The North German group. Of course.
was based on Johann Sebastian Bach,
with two selections from Handel. and
Carl Philip Em-Iuel Bach's Rondo in
- L - A. -.
mastery Of the classic style was eyi-
dent. as it was later N the Haydn and
Mozart numbers. An interesting feat.
ure of the concert were the historical
and biographical notes by James Hume
ker, which, after giving a short sketch
Of the precursors OF the pianoforts,
took up the six progran.m's In detail.
The notes were admirably compact and
judiciously choren. and added material
ly to the instructive force Of the re-
cital.

CROSS ON TRAIN
Pins Medal on Soldier, Despite
Weakness-Spoke of Trench
MOnOtony.

London, Nov. while King George
was in an ambulance train yesterday on
the way to the coast, il developed to-
day, he directed that Lance Sergeant
Oliver Brooks, of the Coldstream
Guards, who had just been awarded the
Victoria Cross, be brought to the royal
car. The King pinned the medal on
the soldiers tunic. He was lying prone
and was so weak that he found ii diff
cult to push the pin through the Khaki.
The Kings journey across the Chan
mel was exceedingly rough, but his
majesty bore il well. On his arrival
at the Victoria Station he had TO De
carried on a stretcher TO waiting am
bulance, which took him to bucking-
ham Palace last night.
The King is recovering slowly. Inc
following official bulletin was issued
this morning:
"The King had better night and
has no fever. Although the effects OF
the accident are slowly passing of, his
majesty will be some time longer con-
fined to bed"
A Reuters dispatch from British
Headquarters in France contains spe-
cial order of the day to the British
army issued By King George before he
left for England The order says:
"Since | was last among you YOU
have fought many strenuous battles.
In all you have reaped renown and
proved yourselves at least equal 70 the
highest traditions of the British army.
"In company with our noble allies
you have battled the infamous con-
spiracy against the law and liberty Of
Europe so long and insidiously pre-
pared.
III have decorated many Of you. but
lad | decorated all who deserve recog-
milton for conspicuous valcr there

me that my accident should have pre-
vented me from seeing all the troops

stay among you | have seen enough to
fill my heart with admiration at YOUR
patient and cheerful endurance OF life

1.-THE Cherry Tree" Is to
Grow Into a Reg
ular Play.

weeks Of prosperity ahead Of 1t in the
Vaudeville field, a sketch entitled "The
Cherry Tree" was withdrawn from the
two-a-day yesterday. Announcement

overs.
"The Cherry Tree" was seen at the
Palace last week, with Harry Green IN
the principal role. 1t will be given

just as soon as Mr. Hoffman and the
midnight kerosene can accomplish 1t.
There is more than one Madame But
terfy, David Belasco wishes ii known.
and the picture 20 be seen at the Strand
next week is the other one. In other
words. Mr.. Belasco states that the
Famous Players film is based solely on
John Luther Longs story, and conse-
auently lacks the skilful little touches
that Mr.. Beasco put into his dramau-
cation some years ago.
The dramatic congestion threatened
for Monday evening has been partly
relieved by the postponement OF the
premiere Of 1.-THE Great Lover" at the
tongacre until Wednesday. The tri-
lingual Leo Ditrichstein Is the plays

achieved by the rival Carmen" at the
Strand, William Fox announces that
