Symphony Society Pays Tribute
To Miss Callender's Memory

At the concert given by the Sym
phony Society yesterday afternoon at
Carnegie Hall, while orchestra and
audience stood. Grieg's Funeral March
was played in memory of Miss Mary
Rhinelander Calender, a director Of
the Symphony Society, who died last
For many years Miss Cal
lender was prominently associated with
the musical life of this city. Stand
ing for the best, helpful to young and
struggling musicians, she did valiant
service in the cause of music.
Miss Sophie Braslau, soloist of the
occasion, sang "Ah, Quel Giorno" from
Rossini's "Semiramide" and three songs
with orchestra by Moussorgsky-"Ser
enade of DEATH eau Bord du Don"
and "On the Dnieper." The striking
contrast between her first aria, with
its florid pa ssages, and the dramatic
contents of fthe Russian songs pro-
vided the singer with an opportunity
to display the wealth of color in her
gorgeous voice and to show her mas
terry of style. The orchestral pieces
were Charpemtier's Impressions dit
ale" and the Intermezzo and Perpe-
tuum Mobile from Moskowski's Suite
Op. 80.

Irish Heiress Needs
$2,IOO a Year to Exist
Petition to Modify Will Shows
High Cost of Living Also
Troubles Erin

The application of Sir John P. Lynch, !
Of Belfeld, County Dublin, Ireland, to
the Surrogates' Court indicates that
the wealthy as well as the poor Of that
country are having their troubles with
the increased cost of living. Sir John
and Lady Lynch asked that the court
modify the will Of Charles W. Iden,
under which their daus snter, Maureen
Lynch, eighteen years old, Is to receive
$4,000 in securities wnen she reaches
her twenty-frst year, with the accu-
mutations OF interest, so that she may
receive the income at once.
The requirements Of Miss Lynch, set
forth in schedule submitted to the
court, are modest compared with the
demands OF other heiresses who have
recently applied for financial relief,
but Sir John explained that his own
economic problems are greater now
than ever and that he would be re-
lieved Of a burden if his daughter could
receive now the income Of the fund
which it was intended she should re-
ceive three years hence.
Sir John said he maintains an ex-
pensive establishment on which there
has been an enormous tax increase and
that his income has been much cur
tailed.
Surrogate Fowler signed an order
awarding to Sir John, as guardian OF
his daughter, the income already nc-
cumulated on the S73, 900 trust fund
It was set forth that Miss Lynch
needed $2,100 year as follows: Board,
lodging, laundry and household ex-
penses. $500; clothes, $3.50; recreations,
outing and travel, $3.50; opera, theater,
social duties and diversions, 5000;
music, 500, and medical expenses, 5000.

Heifetz Feature
Of Philharmonic
Society's Concert
Plays Mendelssohn Piece
With Fine Effect and
Stransky Leads Orches-
ira in Dvorak Symphony

The chief item Of interest at last
nights concert Of the Philharmonic
Society at Carnegie Hall was the ap-
rearance of the soloist, Joshua Heifitz,
who played the Mendelssohn E minor
concerto and who played it as his
warmest admirers knew that he would
play it, There have been those who
have decred Mr.. Heiftz's emotion, who
have insisted that he is a sort of
!iolanstic Shelley beating his beautiful
Intellectual wings in the void.
We haven't any fear of those who
insist on Mr.. Heiltz's Intellectual wings,
and we don't believe Mr.. Heifitz
has, either. They are wings which watt
him very effectually, indeed, to posi-
tion where most Of the "emotionalists"
Of the violin look very much ike
ants. And this was the way he played
the Mendelssohn Concerto.
Mr.. Stransky, besides accompanying
him, led the orchestra in Dvorak's Sym
phony No. 3, which he produced three
weeks ago in Tschaikowsky's 1872"
Overture, and in Florent Schmitt's fas-
cinating "Rhapsodie Viennoise"
The audience was of capacity size
and showed Mr.. Heiftz in particular
the warmth of its regard.

Youthful Pianists Heard
Miss Arnold Gives First Recital
at AeOlian Hall

Two young people played the piano
forte at Aeolian Hall yesterday. In
the afternoon Miss Julette Arnold
gave her first recital. A slip of girl,
she showed plain talent too soon en-
couraged to cope with the exigencies
of a recital.
In the evening Ferdinand Wachsman
gave an awe-inspiring exhibition Of
strength and speed. Under his relent-
less fingers the chords in a Bach
Tausig organ toccata became fearsome
things. His force was slightly curbed
in the fugue which followed, or rather
transferred to his feet, which pressed
the pedals with such energy that he
blurred the effect Of his nimble fin
gers. His performance of Beethoven's
Sonata No. 8, in minor, further con-
hrmed the impre ession that paying, to
this young man, is an affair o. strength
and velocity

When the mountain streams no longer feed the parched and thirsty land,

When the looms at last are silent in the mills,
When the gentle moon no longer sheds its soft and flmy rays,
When the church bells in the valley cease to ring,
When the calendar no longer marks the passing of the days,
When the purple lnacs bloom no more in spring.
When the bob-o-link no longer sings his song unto his mate,
When the pleasant voice of nature has been stilled,
When the universe has passed into a paralytic state
