An Offering of an unusual nature was
enjoyed by those who attended the re-
cital of Indian music given at the Ma
tional Theater yesterday afternoon by
Charles Wakefield Cadman. composer
pianist, and Tsianina. Indian soprano.
The audience included both music lovers
program. arranged by Mr.. Cadman.

largely of Indian numbers composed
and arranged by him. and included. be-
sides many themes and arrangements
never before heard in Washington, such
favorites as Prom the Land of the Sky
Blue Water" and Far OFF | hear Low
er's Lutte" In addition to the musical
numbers offered. Mr.. Cadrnan gave an
Indian music-talk and played several love
songs on the typical Indian fiageolet
The f1exibiiity and sweetness of Tsian-
mas voice lent itself admirably to the
peculiar quality of the songs, while Mr.
Cadmans examples of the real beauty
Of simple Indian themes as brought out
by harmoniZation were interesting in the
extreme. OF particular charm was
group Of three songs built on native
themes by Tsianna-"Blanket Song"
ZunD. In the Forest" (Ojibway) and
Her Shadow (Ojibway canoe song).
The last named. of haunting rhythm, ex
tremely pleasing melody and pretty senti-
ment. was received with such enthusiasm
that the soloist was compelled to re-
peat it.
Three examples of early sacred music
were used s an analogy to bring out the
similarity in the musical aspirations of
primitive peoples Of widely differing peri
DDS and locations. These were an Omaha
tribal prayer. Gregorian chant of the
seventh century in Latin. and an ancient
Egyptian chant of the Copts in Arabic
vocables. Their fundamental similarity
was rather startling. Tsian:na's personal
appearance, gestures and beautiful In
dian costume lent appropriate atmosphere
and additional charm to the performance

President Wilson's cold was better
today. and he expects to attend the
Army-Navy foot ball game at New

mere at am. on a special train, ar
riving in New York at 1905 pm. He
will return to Washington directly
after the game, arriving here about 10

engagements except one with Senator
Robinson.
Annual Message Is Short.
The shortest annual message to Con-
gress Mr.. Wilson has ever written, and
one of the shortest in history, will be
in the hands of the newspapers in a
few days. 1t now is in the government
printing office. 1t contains about 1000
words and centers largely about the
uncompleted legislation on railroads

to meet the threatened railroad strike

hailing from Freeland. Pa, walked into

him upon his reelection. He did not

who remained in the private portion
of the White House owing to the slight
cold he has suffered from, but was
made happy by Secretary Tumulty. duly
prcnouAced by him "Toonulty."
ON election night, when all the re-
turns told of the election of Hughes.
McGroarty refused to be dispirited and
made a vow to himself that if Wilson
should be elected ne would walk all
the way to Washington to shake hands
with Mr.. Wilson. He left home a week
ago and walked as far as Elkton, Md.
reaching there yesterday. Rain at that
point changed his mind about walking
all the way and he used the railroads
to this city. He got here at o'clock
last night. He says he is going to
walk back part of the way anyhow.
