Meanwhile the artists, those who are
such by grace of genius, and those who
are such only in desire and their own
conceit, must rest content, and If they
cannot themselves supply the re-
viewer with interesting material for
discourse be glad when others do it,.

certs Of the Philharmonic Society give

drive him TO briSf reiteration Of plati-
tudes about the excellence OF their
performance, or to impatient complaint
because the equally good orchestras Of
New York do not make equally good
music. And then the indignant cham
pion Of Mr.. Walter Dsmrosch or Mr..
Stransky rushes to the rescue and I'M
wisely makes plain what had been
yelled under implication. The first re-
cital Of a singer, violinist, 'cellist, what
not. receives mere mention, is damned
by faint praise, is ignored or frankly
told that the recital added nothing TO
the sum OF the seasons interest; and
immediately the protests begin to flow
into the newspaper Offices from tho
friends of the singer, yiolinist, 'cellist
or what not. To them the incident was
Of vast and vital importance, and they
impugn the motives Of the reviewer
cast reflections on his honesty and in
telligepse or SANDER his digestive ap-
psratus, because in having no selfish
interest in the recital estimated its
newspaper value by that Of hundred
rectals which had preceded it, and
tried TO fix its place in a scheme which
will embrace hundred more before the
season ends.

Symphony Society contains something
which arouses the interest Of even a
tagged concert-goer. Such a concert
is projected for this week By the Schola
Cantorum. There have been occa-
sions in the past when there was a
decided gap between the society's pro-
fessions and performance, as when 6
promise to outline the history OF the
opera was made and i'll kept when a
work by Bsntock was announced as
a first performance in America and
only portion of it given. But those
things have been at least partly atoned
for in concerts since. The affair an
nounced for next Wednesday evening
is of fascinating interest. The pro-
gramme aims to illustrate the charac-
terstic music of France from the time
of Francis l. to tho Revolution. 1t is
set forth in full among the weeks pro-
grammes on this page. Most Of the
music is entirely new in our concert
rooms, some of it new only in the form
in which il is TO be presented. There
are two bergerettes of the seventeenth
century by Tessier, a court musician
Of Henry ", and Jacques Lefevre.
court composer TO Louis XIII; two
humorous madrigals by Costeley C153l-
lG06) and Passereau, who was in the
service of Francis L; three old cava-
lier songs whose origin is unknown,
though one of them has words by
Clement Marot and a melody also at
tributed to him. Then follow LA Ba-
taille," by Clement Jsnnequin (of which
something shall be said presently, eX-
corpts from Rousseau's opera lie Devin
du Village" 20 the story of which the
local public was recently intro
duced by performances of Mozsrts
youthful German operetta "Bastien ct
Bsstienne"; a scene from Rameau's
opera "Hippolyte at Article" arrange
ment Of old airs and Gabriel Faure S
"Pavane," which is a modern effort to
reproduce a medieval form.
From a historical point of view the
most interesting Of these compost
tons is Jsnnequin's Battle" a piece
of vocal music, in which an attempt is
made TO describe in words and music
the defeat of the Swiss by the French
at Msrgnsn in lois, which was com.
posed four hundred years ago. Con
corning the composer Mr.. Kurt Schind-
le. says in a note appended to the pro-
gramme:

which is necessarily that Of the public
and art. The performer is quite natu-
rally concerned with his own interests,
and so are his friends. When hum
dred performers do the same thing, in
practically the same way, the most gen.
erous minded reviewer is hard put TO 1t
TO say something about the hundred
performances which will interest his
many readers who have no personal
concern with any particular performer
His attitude is incomprehensible TO the
performer and his small or large circle
Of friends, who care nothing for art in
It's large aspect, but look only for their
personal, selfish qualification. Perhaps,
when Mr.. Wilson has succeeded in reor-
ganizing the political world on the
basis of universal angelic virtue, the
millennium will also be come for the
critic, for then there will be no differ
ence in the popular attitude toward him
and his profession, since human nature
will have given place TO the divine.
There will then be no need of criticism.
All interpretative artists will be equally
great, all art works will be perfect, all
audiences equally correct, just and
kindly in their appreciation. 1t will be
Eden before the fall Again shall
airs, vernal airs.
Breathing the smell OF field and grove,
attune
The trembling leaves, while universal
Pan,
Knit with the Graces and the Hours in
Dance
lead on the eternal spring. The
rose of music will be without the thorn
of criticism. But, oh, the stagnation!
Most tolersble and not to be endured"

Babe Ruth Sets Pace for Mighty ~;
Cruise ShOwS Way in The National
Burns Drops Some During
Week, but Still ShiningEx-
ample to Giant Batters

George Burns, the gallant little left
fielder Of the Giants, had rather dis
appointing week IN his fight for the
National League batting crown. Burns
has dropped back TO .320. which is a
mighty fine record, no matter how you
look at it, but which, nevertheless,
drops him away below several other
regulars Of his company.
Cruise, of the Cardinals, one Of this
seasons sensations, is virtually lead
ing the National League batters with
the fine average Of .34s. He is topped
by Tom Clarke, the Cincinnati catcher,
and by Prendergast, the Cub pitcher.
Prendergast has record of .462, but
has been at bat officially only thirteen
times. Clarke in fortyfour times at
bat has shown 1854. Roush, Of the
Reds, is pressing Cruise closely at .344.
j. Smith, of St. Louis; Fischer, Pitts
burgh, and Griffith, Cincinnati, are all
tied at 1873.
Kauff and Zimmerman are the only
Giants, besides Burns, in the 300 class,
the former with .303 and the latter with
.3O2.
Following are the averages compiled
from official scores, including games up
to Thursday last:

At Hartsdale

Miss Helen Gilleaudeau defeated her
sister Grace in the final round Of the
women's singles in the Westehester
County tennis tournament, which was
continued on the courts of the County
Club at Hartsdale, n. Y, yesterday.
The match was a brilliantly fought one,
Miss Grace making her boldest stand
iE the second set, which she forced to
7 10 3. Miss Helen won the first and
third sets by the same score of 6-3.
The final Of the mems singles went
to Abraham Bassford. jr., who won as
he pleased from Charles Gsmmons. by
a score of 81. 6-l, IS. Bassiord
let down in his terrific smashing in
the third sat. and Gammons, who raj
lied, forced the set to duece. How
ever, Bassford then put on more speed
and won the next two games and match.
