Wednesday evening at the High School auditorium the lily lecture course will present the Schumann quintet. This is the strongest musical organization put out by the Redpath Lyceum Bureaus. Music lovers of Phoenix will find this one of the strongest musical organizations that will visit Phoenix this winter
 The Schumann quintet is headed by Carl A. Lampert, first violinist, who studied abroad in the Prague conserva- tory under Ruchy. For nine years he played the first violin in the Thomas orchestra and is at present connected with some of the most notable musical institutions in America. | Carl Fortune, pianist, is a graduate of the Cincinnati Conservatory of Mu- l sic and is both a pianist and organist of high ability.
 Miss Helene Fortune, dramatic so- l prano and concerto violiniste. gave up a most flattering musical offer to be- come a member of the Schumann quintet.
 Mrs. Grace Kaplun, concert pianist, graduated from the Cincinnati Con- servatory of Music at the age of 16 years.
 Harry Kaplun, cello virtuoso. was formerly a member of the Cincinnati 1 Symphony orchestra.
 This company carries a specially | constructed organ to secure the sym- phonic effect which gives all the reed and wind effects of a large orchestra and combined with the piano and strlnged instruments produces results as surprising as they are unique.

The question was brought up by former Premier Asquith today who asked if the house might expect statement regarding those matters from the premier tomorrow and wheth- CT tn Ire would be full opportunity of discussion.
 Mir. Bonar Law replied in the affir- native. Answering another question Bonar Law announced that General Robertson had accepted the eastern command.
 James Myles Hogge interjected:
 "Why not the boy scouts?"
 This had reference to the inferiority of the eastern command to the other command which General Robertson had held.
 Mr. Bonar Law refused to say whether General Robertson had re- signed or was dismissed; nor would he say whether Field Marshal Haig and General Robertson had approved the ! findings of the Versailles conference, explaining that he did not wish to an- 1 ticipate the premiers speech.
