MUKLE AND FRYER
PLAY AT BANDBOX
'CelIist and Pianist Among
Most Interesting of Sun
day Performers.

Sunday continues to have its full
quota Of concerts, even if yesterdays
were not as numerous as had often
been the case. At the little Bandbox
Theatre, in East Fifty-seventh Street,
Miss May Nuke, 'cellist, and Herbert
Fryer, pianist, gave a recital which
fairly well filed the charming audi
torium.
The programme consisted Of Bach's
Sonata in G, Richard Strauss's sonata
in F and two pianoforte solos, De-
bussy's Clair de Lune" and Chopin's
Variations Brillantes," Op. ~. Both
artists are sincere musicians, and II
their playing lacked somewhat in
warmth il was always interesting, and
their ensemble work admirable. They
we're warmly applauded.
The usual concerts took place at the
Metropolitan and Century Opera
Houses. At the latter the Russian
symphony Orchestra gave number OF
Russian selections, and Ossip and Clara
Gabriowitsch were solo performers.
The audience was large and enthusl-
astic.
At the Metropolitan Miss Anna Case,
Paul Althouse and Arthur Middleton
sang.
Between his great and we'll deserved
eminence as virtuoso and his fortul-
tous notoricty as man OF war, Mr..
Fritz Kreisler is being pretty hard put
to 1t Just now to fill engagements and
keep at a repertory. 1t is a pity that
such an artist should ever get any
where near the end of his rope; but
the fault is not his. II is the public's.
The concertos by Spohr will no
longer serve. Paganini in d cannot
be repeated often by one player in a
season; Beethoven, Brahms, Mendels-
sohn ought not TO get cloying, and
never do when played as they ought
to be.
But IL the same artist has to play
them all the time a tinical people Will
get weary of them. So having run
pretty we'll enough the gamut, Mr..
Kreisler played Bruch in & minor at
one of the many concerts of the Phil
harmonic Society yesterday afternoon.
Played il superbly, of course, and was
rewarded with the usual whirlwind Of
applause. And the orchestra played
again Brahms's symphony in + minor.
This is not exactly milk for babes, like
Dr. Muck's programme of last Satur-
day afternoon, but inasmuch as its
echoes had scarcely died out Of the
ears OF the public one wonders why our
conductors seem so restricted in their
choice Of works, or II necessarily re-
stricted why they DO not play them
better.

teers. after the war was over first IN
peaceful pursuits, and now, after all
the lapse of years, he is easily 'hrst

science we can take all the locks from

publication. but it was learned on ex-
cellent authority that DR.. Haiselden

stand he took in not performing an
operation that they all believed would
have meant life Of short duration to

today the questions they will under.
take to answer. They are:
Would the infant have lived If the
operation for the completion of his
digestive organs had been performed?
Could other deformitives have be IN
corrected so that the child would have
been capable OF normal physical de.
velopment?
Could the deformities have been cor
rected SO that the infant would have
been capable Of overcoming certain
mental DEFICIENCIES?
Was Dr.. Haiselden justified ethical
lily, morally and physically not to save
life?
DR.. Haiselden was to be a witness
at today's session of the jury. Other
witnesses will be DR.. Climena Serviss,
the woman physician who aided DR..
Haiselden, and internes and nurses OF

DISCRIMINATION IS
ADMITTED BY ROADS
st. Louis Paper Says Remedy In Com
merce Commission, Roads
Declare.

That the railroads admit discrimi-
nation against ST. Louis in the hear
ing in which Keokuk Is appearing, is
told in the obe-Democrat's story of
the hearing The remedy, they say,
Is the interstate commerce commits
sion. Regarding this, the Globe says:
1.-THE railroads take the position
that the interstate commerce commits
sion has Jurisdiction in all matters
affecting commerce, and that II 1t Is
shown an intrastate rate results in
hampering interstate commerce, the
commission has the authority to set
the intrastate rate aside.
'In case the commission takes the
same view as the railroads 1t will is-
sue an order requiring the railroads
to remove the determinations. which
they will do by increasing the intra-
state rate in Illinois to equal the tar
if charged on interstate traffic. If
the Illinois officials then attempt to
force the roads to keep the rates at
the maximum fixed by the Illinois
laws. the roads will go into the federal
court and ask Injunction against the
Illinois officials"
