A telegram was received yesterday
at the office of the Children's Aid So
ciety announcing the death, at his
home in Sitka, Alaska, of John Green

though sixty years had passed since
Brady passed out of the institution.
there was no trouble in recalling his
connection with it. for he had risen to
influence in the interim. In fact the
telegram announced his death as that
o, Gov. Brady" and such in fact he
had been.
Brady was born in 1S49, the son Of
shiftless longshoreman, who lived in
waterfront tenement near the foot of
Roosevelt street. AS soon as he was
able to crawl he was put on the street
to earn a precarious livelihood selling
newspapers. backing boots, running
errands and such other jobs as the boy
could get. He spent. his nights in hall
ways and packing cases, and II was In
a packing case he was found one night
by q policeman. With a boatload of
others in like circumstances, he was
sent to Randall's Island. In the sum-
mer of 1859 he was one of party or
twenty-seven homeless orphans sent
West by the Childrens Aid Society.
When the sorry company reached
Upton, Ind, John Green, lawyer of
that town, asked for 1.-The ugliest,
raggedest and most friendless boy in

sionary Brady went to Alaska. Trade

sonary work.
The missionary trader rose steadily

Mckinley in 1900 and by President

decided to resign, and in February

'LODOLETTA' HAS ITS
SEASON PREMIERE
Mascagni's Opera, Breathing
Gentle Emotion, Sung at
Metropolitan.

Mascagni's. "Lodoletta" was given
at the Metropolitan Opera House last
evening for the first time this season.
The opera appears likely to retain the
position which it won when 1t was
first disclosed to the local public. 1t
is regarded with pleasant approval If
not with unequivocal enthusiasm. Its
pages breathe a gentle and~sympa-
thetlc emotion which can be readily
comprehended and which brings a
kind of restful regret TO the sus-
ceptible spirit.
Naturally certain points recur to
the observer. The score is indis-
putably melodious, yet nowhere is
there a melodic idea which strikes the
bearer as Of the first Importance. 1t
Is lyric tenderness from beginning to
end, but there is no moment of thrill
ing utterance. The nearest approach
to one Is the leading duet for the
! soprano and the tenor.
But the idyl of the two little wooden
shoes, one of those singular prose
poems which Ouida could make with
such exquisite feeling when she was
not too busy with her Granville de
Vignes, her Cecil Strathmores, her
Castalias and other utterly toplofticaI
impossibilitles, is touching and memo
rable. and it is just the stun out OF
| which opera can be made. One re-
grets that Mr.. Mascagni could not have
put as much lyric point into 1t as he
put into his Iris"
To the habitual operagoer. especially
those who take their opera standing
the chief merit of the score Is the OPP
portunities 1t gives to Mr.. Caruso, Of
which hse takes all advantage. Flor
ence Easton is still charming as Lodo-
lottd and Mr.. Chalmers acceptably fill:
Mr.. Amato's part as Gidnotto.
In the audience Mrs. William p
| Douglas, Mr.. and Mrs. james SpeyeI

Mr.. and Mrs. Henry Clewes.

in Carnegie Hall.

Louis Wins. violinist, and Edouard

players from Paris, gave a sonata re-
cital under the sponsorship of the
French American Association for Mu-
steal Art, last evening in Carnegie Hall
The two artists have just arrived in
this country for an American tour
authorized by the Ministry of Arts and
the French High Commission. Both
did war service and were "reformes"
after two and half years In the army.
They have a patriotic purpose in Of
fering in this country the most recent
French compositions in their field.
They played in concert together for
some years before the war in different
cities in Europe. including Paris.
and more recently they have been
heard in Italy.
The sonatas they performed at last
evenings concert were by Handel in
G. minor; by Beethoven in + major t:
Gabriel Pierne's in d major. opus 80,
and Cesar Franck's in A major. The
list was a comprehensive one for styles
though 1t contained no new modern
French work. The Pierne sonata,
which has figured here in the pro-
grammes of Mr.. and Mrs. David
Names, is delightful composition and
one which serves well to show the
modern French spirit In chamber
music.
The two players gave a performance
showing commendable seriousness
and taste. AS whole, however, II
lacked proper balance. The tone OF
the violinist was not sufficiently firm
and full. and the pianist's playing
though having technical facility, was
often too loud. In slower movements
their work was more enjoyable. The
programme would have been heard tC
