troubled him and on Monday his all

hands ministered to him, but all of
no avail; the Grim Reaper would not

wiser, George Raynor, passed away
at 1l:30 a, M. March 3rd.
Mrs Raynor. who was spending
the winter with her daughter in
Boston. was wired for Monday-the
distance was too great-she and her
daughter Mrs. Baker, arrived at
3:o5 Wednesday afternoon. too late
to see husband and father alive.
Their grief was pitiful to see when
they learned that their loved one
was gone.

rived late on wednesday night from Eu-
rope, after barely msnaging to extricate
himself from the net OF the English ad-
miralty. has yet to prove that his repu-

Petrograd, Moscow, London, and Paris
will be duplicated In New York.
There can be no question. however,
that the tall Hungarian condctor--he
is full six feet In his stockings and as
slender as william Guard-made most
agreeable impression on the group of
reporters to whose cross-examination he
exposed himself good-naturedly in the
Metropolitan Opera House.

with most formidable "safe conduct

ties. To Judge solely from his appear.

were no signs OF hesita ton except wher
he had a little difficulty In understand.

strange to his ears.
But perhaps the most striking char.
actcristic OF this musician. who. In the
midst OF the turmoil of the interview
drew n leather casa from his pocket and
his youthful wife and two little children
was his natural modesty. And nothins
could have shown more clearly quail
ity not often found among men who
have had 80 brilliant a public career
than the following remarks:
