serve officers training camps won the
admiration of the whole country.

The need OF trebling the financial
resources Of the New York Geological
society, which supervises the Zoo. Mt
Bronx Park, and the Aquarium. was
reported yesterday by Professor Henry
Fairfield Osborn, the president. at the
socicty's twcnty-fourth annual meet
ing.
In order to provide income for cur
rent work, Or. Osborn told his asso-
ciates, the endowment of the society
must be raised from $500 1882 TO ST..
100000. A call for aid from friends
OF the society, whether members or not
was made
The present officers and directors Of
the society were reelected yesterday
Tor another year.
Application will be made to tho citv
administration for 100000 to improve
the Aquarium and move the front of
tho building beyond the reach of sea
water. One Of the advantages of this
alteration will be increased exhibition
space and more room for office work.
There are 5000 living specimens in
the Aquarium and 1000 animals ut

Music
Arnstein and Willeke Appear
In Concert at Aeolian
Hall

pianist and 'ccllist shared the
DAY yesterday at Aeolian Hall, both
artists being we'll known to tho New
York public. Mr. Leo Ornstcin, who ap-
peared In the afternoon. Is perhaps
better known in his self-announced
role OF musical rovolutionist than he
is as concert pianist, but those who
hesitate to take altogether seriously
his dissonances as n composer readily
acknowledge tnut lie is performer Of
no mean ability.
His programme yesterday was some-
what of an innovation in that he an
nounccd upon it none Of his own works.
Yet there were on it many numbers in
which he was peculiarly at home,
notably in the Prelude. Poeme and
Dansc of Scriabine, and In Ravel's "Le
Barque sur POcean," "Le Gibet" and
"Scarbo." After all, Mr.. Ornstein is n
modernist, and it is in the compositions
OF the modernists that he finds fullest
outlet for his spirit. Yet he played the
Beethoven Sonata Arpassionata" in a
muscianly fashion, and the Chopin
group with delcacy and poetry. He
was rapturously applauded by large
audience.
Willem Willeke's long service with
the Knesels has already established
his position with our musical public, a
public which, now that he is appearing
as solo artist, has evidently followed
him into his new field. He is an artist
possessed Of taste, considerable feel
ing and an admirable technical equip
ment. His playing yesterday Of the
quaint sonata of Henry Eccles was in
particular graceful and fresh in spirit.

He was warmly greeted by an audience
which quite filled the hall.
Our late enemies, the Spaniards, have
many admirable traits, as most enemies
prove to have upon peaceful inspection,
and few Of these were suggested in
the Spanish folk-music sung last night
at Carnegie Hall by the chorus of the
Schola Cantoruul, under the direction
of Kurt SCHNEIDER. For one thing, they
have a fervcnt sense of religion, or at
least Of religious symbol and ritual,
which comes to the same thing for the
purposes of art. Their miracle stories
are filled with picturesque fancies, and
arc sung to the most engaging tunes
Imaginable Whether they tell naively
of the Virgin who answered the
mothers prayer for the health of her
child by taking him up to Heaven or
of St Raymond, who made a boat of
his cloak and thus escaped from the
Island of Mallorca, or of the birds who
sang praises, each in his own fashion,
to the new born Christ, they compel the
affection of the sympathetic listener.
