OSTEOPATH OCCUPIED
OLD GAMBLING HOUSE
Hence Patients Never Kept Dates,
Being Stopped BY a
Policeman.

NEW YORK, Jan. SILVER since Dee
cember / when DR.. Joseph Daley, osteo-
path, opened his office at 156 West
Forty-fourth street, he has been won-
derlng why patients failed to keep their
appointments. At the same time, men
on their way to see the doctor have
been resenting the interference of one
Florence ]. Sullivan, who stopped them
at the steps Of the doctors house and
showed interest in the purposes of their
visits. .
When the osteopath discovered the
reason for broken appointments he had
his lawyer. Emil Fuchs, obtain a sum-
mons for Sullivan on the grounds that
that man, who happens to be a MEM
her of Inspector Daly's staff was guilty
Of police oppression Sullivan was aS
much surprised when he was served
with summons accusing him OF stop
ping we'll known and reputable New
Workers without cause" as was DIR.
Daley over the failure OF his expected
patients to appear.
Light dawned for both osteopath and
detective in the West Side court when
Sullivan told Magistrate Ten Eyck that
he had been keeping carful watch on
every one who went TO the house be-
cause 1t had once been Honest John
kelly's establishment and that he sus-
pected its reopening.
'Give a house a bad name" he told
the magistrate "and-Tll question any
one who tries to enter it. I've stopped
nearly twenty men from going in there
late at night during the past month"
Magistrate Ten Eyck advised the os-
teopath's lawyer to- take the matter up
with Commissioner Woods, which ac-
ton, he said, he was going to pursue.

MUSIC
Beautiful Playing and Novelty
Characterize Boston Sym
phony Concert. ="

Beautiful playing, musical interest and
novelty characterized the third concert
of the Boston Symphony Orchestra un-
der DR.. Karl Muck at the New Ma
tional Theater yesterday afternoon be-
fore the usual capacity audience that
pays tribute to this orchestra. Two
novelties presented were the rare or
chestral reading of the Rachmaninoff
symphony poem, The Island of the
Dead" written to the picture by Book
lin. and the first hearing in Washing
ton of the variations for orchestra and
piano by the American pianist, Ernest
Schelling, with the composer at the
piano.
The symphony was the Mozart f flat
major. 1t was given with a warmth and
body OF tone, with phrases that were
suave in their grace. and with that
perfection of tone and nuance that
makes this formal music in the hands
of the Boston players a true delight,
The blitheness OF the allegro finale
with its wealth Of detail was particular
y effective.
Rachmanlnoft's "Toteninser" is a vast
tone painting of the impressionist type.
1t is a rich indefinite flow of sound that
lg yet surcharged with emotion and il
full 'of atmosphere. One can assign a
program to it also, for this tone picturs
NV OI inc OGdQ opens
with broad rhythmic sway as of the
waters, through which is presently
heard the tnsistent beat OF a dirge that
gathers intensity as 1t progresses.
Varied muted instruments give touches
ot realism as Strauss would paint 1t,
the wailing, fiutteT as of birds; then
a recapttulation which leads on to Ely
sian fields with big Wagnerian masses
OF orchestration and back again to the
Dead March with its counter-asser-
tlon Of rhythms all masterfuliy
handled.
The flowing and pianlstic PLAYING Of
ernest Schelling is full of charm, but
only occasionally could 1t be appreciated
IN MS amazing musical con .'ption that
ne has called Variations of personaIi-
tles, OF places. of happenings as they
happened to strike my imagination. !"
rhey are a strange medley OF unrc-
Iated ideas numbering eighteen IN all.
There are some lovely moments, some
piano cadenzas of real Virtuoslty. but
most OF the delineation is given tho
orchestra, much OF II holds local color.
But so vast a subject-matter needs
must be curSory in treatment: "One
timbre in my ear, OF the Boston SYM
phony Orchestra; Paderewslki: IN nreTT.-
orN of Mailer; the F!onzaleys Petro-
grad a Lagoon; August. 1914" With tho
matte material that is often reminiscent
these variations begin and end an arnuz-
ing creation
The program closed with Rerl;oz's 4
overture, THE Roman Carnival" with
a truly lovely bel canto" In the Italian
serenade and an artistic building Up Ia
its scenic climax. j. Mach.

PHOTOPLAYS AND

Filnldom'S Behind

When the Editor
Starts to Work
BY QARDNER MACK.

People who have seen them insist
that the best motion picture produc-
tions, and the most interes ing, are
those given in the studios where d.
rectors cut their own 1lr, plays TO
the footage necessary fer general
circulation. Those patrons of the
photoplay who have followed the
progress of the industry know that
every picture exhibited represents
but a part of the film that was mado
for that particular photoplay. 1t Is
said that in the making OF Grif-
hths "The Birth OF Nation more
than 10000 feet OF film was con-
Sumcd, although the production exc
hibitcd to the public amounts to but
bit over 1900 feet.
In many film companies Glere IL

some companies he is utterly with
out experience or training for such
q job. who cuts the films TO the
sise desired. In other companies.
like the Gaumont. the i-ubin. the
Famous Players. I.aslty. etc. the
work is done by the directors who
made the pictures or a committee
of directors. The exhibition of tine
film when these cuts are decided on
IL most interesting. not alone foi
the manner in which the cutting is
accomplished. but In the comments
Of the directors or the director who
made the picture, as the film Is
run or.
At the Gaumont studio on Long
Island recently, Director Richard
'Garrick gave a complete history. Of
the making of his picture, THE
Idol of the State" during the eN-
hibition of the film for editing 5nd
cuttins. 1t forms a sort of behind
the scenes" view of motion pictures.
See that man." Director Gar
rick said of a particular individual
who was a stranger to most OF the
persons present. I'VE got him IN
Jacksonville. He'd never worked in
a picture before. Isn't he good? lie

scene. See that pretty girl in the
light dress? She's n Jacksonville
society girl. She is new to picture
work. She has fortune in her own
name. but she takes the Gaumont
money just like all the other extras.
But she doesn't keep 1t. Every cent
she gets from us she turns over at
once to her favorlte charity.
Now l want you to watch this
scene in the sleeping quarters of the
I convict camp. didn't tell the ex-
ira men. but 1 hired four local prize
fighters and told them to start a
battle royal when the riot signal was

Isn't that immense? Just wait till
the warden comes. Those fellows
nursed bruises for days"
And so the. comment ran through
the entire five reels of the feature.
At times some one would say. THAT
title isn't clear or You can cut

q, pictdre is whipped into final shape.

On this point It is interesting to quote
from Circular No. - Of the United

all Tungsten lamps sold in this country
bear the trade name "Mszda." Says the

In many places Tree renewals of
Carbon or Gem lamps are made by the
power companies, while the consumer
must furnish Tungsten lamps at his
own expense. This deters many people
from using the better lainps. especially
because the latter have the reputation
OF being very fra gie. The early tung-
stem lamps were ~ fact easily broken,
and were comparatively expensive. but

Their durability IS shown by their

Since a lamp may sometimes be broken

Civil service can do much to ale

must have the backing of a solid
body of citizens who are not blinded
with the disease Of wealth grabbing

weak in all reforms. We think that
great wealth is respectable and we
hope to attain it ourselves.
We do not realize that great wealth
is founded on a greater poverty.
That wealth for the few means pow

founded on special privileges that

WISE GIRLS-I read with great
interest in The Public Forum about
girls falling for hOt-air stuff. Well, I
know from my experience working
around meTTy-go-rounds, circUses

think that they are wise and know
it all break their necks to make the
acquaintance of these men and fall
for their line of CUFF. The same with
the likes of Motorcycle Petes, etc.
They are asked to take a ride, fall
for the hot air, are ridden out to no
mans land, and if they have any
change it is taken from them and
they are deserted and must get back
home the best way they can.

COIImar Brothers. Great
Show

System and efficiency" is the motto
of the modern successful business man.
In no business is this motto more closely
adhered to than in the management of
large circus such as Gollmar Brothers,
Americas Greatest Shows, which is to
exhibit at Mineral Point on Tuesday,
May 16.
In show the size. of the Gollmar
Bros, if a definite plan :were not.Tfol-
lowed out faithfully CHAOS would be
the result.
When the performance is over at
night every piece of show property
from the smallest piece of rope or stake
to the monster canvas under which the
circus performance is given is loaded in
the same place in the same wagon, the
wagon is hauled to the same place on
the same car of the train by the same
team. This order is not varied from
one end of the season to the other.
A big circus like Gollmar Bros.
moves too fast to stop and teach any
one, therefore, efficiency is the first re-
quirement of everyone with the show,
from the humblest canvasman to the
highest salaried employee on the pay
roll, all must understand their business
thoroughly, and be prepared to do the
work they are engaged for at all times
and under all conditions
