we'll known here, as are her certain &C.
centrlcities Of manner which have
caused Unfortunate comment. These
escentricities at times seem to detract
from desirable repose in her work. while
he very strength OF personality from
which they spring can too easily lend
a foreign II not personal atmosphere to
the work In hand.
This latter defect was especially
obvious In her playing Of the Bach
music yesterday and caused It to lack
something In the spirit and mood be-
longing to this composer. But such
flaws must perhaps be forgiven when
they are in company with so many
striking musical gifts as are possessed

MR.. RECITAL.
Church Choir Tenor Appears In a
New Field.

William Wheeler. a tenor. VINO Is
known in New York as a church choir
and oratorio singer. gave his nrst re-
ci.al last evening in Aeolian Hall. He
presented a carefully arranged pro-
which began with three old
italian airs, followed by n group Of Ger
man lyrics from standard German COM
posers. A number of folk songs-Gaelic'
negro, as arranged by II T.. Burleigh I;
ancient orkney and Manx-made up the
third part. while the list closed with
songs In English. .
Mr.. Wheeler sang with a voice OF
powerful. yet good quality. which In !ts
lower notes extended into the barytone
range. He uses II on the whole well.
A tendency to throatiness now and then
impaired smoothness In tonal emission
and there could have been more variety
in coioring as well as a moro general
finesse. In style he gave a good showing
in musical intelligence, depth of express
sion and refinement in taste. His diction
was excellent.
Harold Osborn Smith played the ac-
compartments with skill.

cial alluded to this movement as IAN
attack on the largest scale since the
beginning of the offensive"
The Germans announced that with
in few hours after 1t was begun
Bethincourt and two fortified posi-
tions to the southwest were isolated.
Trenches in the region Of Dead
Mans hill were carried. but at no
point was the French line broken
through. Toward the end of last
week this attack subsidized and there
came another pause, followed by
French counterattacks over small
sections of the line.
The failure of the Germans to
break the French line in the general
offensive of last week led French
correspondents to assert that the
German offensive had broken down.
Dispatches from the German front
however. state the the operations
are being carried forward method
cally in accordance with the precon-
ceived plan and with full measure
