paid the late Sam Jones and which he
priced very highly:

POLAND TO BE FREE!

For fifteen hundred years the Slavs
have lived along the banks OF the
River vistula and in the hundred
mile radius Of Warsaw. And for III
teen hundred years that ground has
been the battlefield Of Europe. 1t was
not Of choice that the Polish nation
became one OF the warriors. Fighting
was forced upon the men of Poland,
Just as In a more recent day fighting
has been forced upon the men OF Bel.

As early as 965 A. d. Poland became
O Christian nation. And the tenets OF
the Christian faith were instilled into
all the people. But Christianity, then
as now, proved no preventive Of war
fare. The people OF the Europe OF
1916 are made OF much the same clay
as those OF thousand years before.
In 1926 the Teutonic knights were
first allowed to settle In the lands OF
the Poles. They greatly increased in
number and early In the thirteenth
century took up arms against the
country OF their adoption. This was
settled by their defeat in 1881. In the
beginning OF the fourteenth century
war again broke out between the Teu.
tons and the Poles and the latter were
victorious at the battle of Grunwald.
In 1ii6 treaty with the Teutonic
knights gave them East Prussia.
About the year 1900 troubles with
Russia began to assume the dimen.
sions Of a war. From that time to this
the duel has continued. In 1914 the
Russians took from Poland the city of
smolensky, only to be in turn defeat.

A little later, In the reign of Stephen
Bathori. Russia was almost dlsmem.
bered by the victorious Poles. In
1917 Ladislaus OF Poland was elected
car OF Russia by n section OF the no.
bles OF that country at Moscow. And
the following year. having failed In
the government OF Russia. the Poles
by treaty abandoned all claims upon
that country.

"PARSIFAL" At MATINEE
Mr.. Urlus Sings Title Role at Metro
politan for First Time.

Wagner's "Parsifal' was given at
Yesterdays special Washington's Birth
day matinee at the Metropolitan Opera
House. The performance was excel
lent. Mr.. Bodankzy finding in the fes-
tival play a field peculiarly sympathetic
20 his poetic and sensitive understand
Ing.
There was only one item of novel
interest the Parsifal of Jacques Ur-
lus. Mr. Urlus was singing the part
for the first time in his career, and
though there were slight evidences OF
unfamiliarity with the character, new
ertheless he succeeded in giving a
moving and, in many respects, a re-
markable impersonation. He brought
out the poetic side Of the knight most
simply. yet most effectively, and he
sang the music with feeling. Mr.. Ur-
lus ought TO be able 20 make his Parsi-
fal one of his most important imper-
sonations.
The rest OF the cast was as usual.
Special praise should go to Clarence
Whitehill for his Amfortas. one OF
the most poignant enactments OF the

GRANADOS AND FITZIU
RECITE AT AEOLIAN
Distinguished Audience Displays
Great Enthusiasm.

The music of Enrique Granados'
either operate or pianistic, Is no
longer a novelty to US. and Mr.. Grana-
dos himself at the last concert OF the
Frierds OF Music proved his abilities
as an interpreter OF his own work.
Therefore. his recital last night IN
Aeolian Hall was partly a ready
twice told tale. Most Of the piano
music Of the "Danza Lenta,' the
"Danza Valenciana," the "Coloquio en-
Ia Reia" we know we'll and appreciate
its admirable qualities. Mr.. Granados
writes fuently, spontaneously for the
piano. and, as his own interpreter
plays with briliancy and with superb
sense OF rhythm.
The novelty in last nights pro
qramme, however, lay in the TACT tnat
Miss Anna Fitziu was assisting MY
Granados, singing number OF songs
new TO US, besides one air from the
opera "Goyescas." The four songs
we're written in the old style, which
proved to be filed with color and which
Miss Fit1iu gave sympathetiesliy.
These we're "The Discreet MaJo, ne
Timid Majo." THE Tralala and the
Punteado" and "The Modest Curru-
tacas." Yet in these, as in the three
later songs, LA Maja dolorosa," the
composer seemed primarily the pianist.
and afterward the singer of songs. In
the air from "Goyescas,' too, 1t was
apparent how much more effective TINS
was with piano accompaniment than 1t
was with orchestra.
Miss Fitziu's piano and pianissimo
were often Of rare beauty, but in forte
passages her timbre too often became
hard and unsympathetic. She is as yet
a singer of great merits, but OF far
from a rounded art or perfection OF
technique. A large and really distin-
guished audience displayed great en-
fhusiasm
