jim EUROPE'S BAND
SCORES GREAT HIT
Concert at Manhattan Opera
House Pleases Audience
Immensely.

Many people who went to the Manhat-
tan Opera House last night--most OF
them, perhaps-never had heard a real
band in their lives. They Just thought
they had. But as they wendell their way
homeward with the tazzing echoes of
Jim Europes Hell Fighters still IT'LL
lating their eardrums they understood
the difference between musical pink lem
onades and gin Azzes.
When the S69th United States In
fantry He'll Fighters Band takes the
road this morning TO follow DR.. Dexter
Fellowes of Fttchburg. Mass. publicity
professor emeritus of Barnum & Bailey's,
in tour Of the provinces It can safely
be ventured that they will accumulate
cash and credit There's probably moth
ing on top Of the earth In the form of n
musical aggregation quite so jolly as
this brass and string outfit that did its
part in chasing the Germans over the
Rhine. They are more than a band
they are complete circus.
They say that when fat little Herb
Wright OF the two snare drumming
Wrghts called the Percussion Twins"
lambasted his tomtom IN front OF Col.
Bill Haywards headquarters the Colonel
Just laughed and laughed and laughed.
Certainly that's what the Manhattan
Opera House audience did last night
when Herbert and his brother. Steve,
varied the entertainment with bin
bang bombardment Herb. the fat one,
had embarrassment giggles and tho
house rocked with merriment at this ne
gro boys foolishness.
Il was rnvch mora than a hand cor
cert that the Addison Amusement Com
pany. Inc. presented last night on the
eve OF an Eastern tour for Lieut. James
n,,I
army band. There was flood OF good
music, a gorgeous racket of syncopation
and Jazzing. extraordinarily pleasing
violin and cornet solos and many other
features that bands seldom offer; but
there was more than that The audience
enjoyed a spice of oldtime minstrelsy, a
Whit of warm, gay fun from the old
South echoes of camp meetings and of
the traditional darkey life that seems al
most to have disappeared.
In intervals between Lieut. Europe's
direction OF this perfectly welded band
quartets and octetes sang with utter
enjoyment the fantastic negro ditties
that are so familiar TO negro camp meet
ings in the South and are 80 little
known in the North-tone pictures of
the gayety with which the colored
brother takes his religion.
Probably those songs about Little
David" and "Old Uncle Noah Who Built
de Ark" were the most pleasing fea-
lures of the entertainment.
At the outset. under Europe's firm
hand, the band rendered the French ma
tional march "Sambre ct Meuse Z"
followed II with the tempestuously an
plauded plantation Echoes" passed to
suites OF the Western world and then
launched into a medley OF jazz tunes.
All the old favorites were played and
played with unfamiliar charm-"Slwa-
nee River my Old Kentucky Home"
and Dixie" among them. Europe
closed his programme with Sabata's
"I.os Banderillos," saxaphone sextet
Echoes From Broadway" and with an
ear splitting crash OF Jazz music that
caused the audience to explode cheering
and laughter.

WHISTLER PICTURE HERE.
Painting Purchased by American
Collector for $4,000.

Still another important Whistler, la
Princesse du Pays de Ia Porcelain" has
come back to Whistler's native America.
Representatives OF the Hokard Young
Galleries. go Fifth avenue. said yester-
day they had procured the painting and
had Just sold It to prominent Ameri-
can collector for $4,000.
The picture is one of Whistler's noted
color harmonies in pink and gray. II
depicts n Chinese lady standing beside
screen and holding a fan--the human
note being subservient to Whistler's pas
sion for color. The treatment gave the
painter great opportunity for displaying
his feeling for howerlike passages of
color. almost as much so as in his
famous Miss Alexander"
The picture was originally sold in 1891
to Mr.. Van Wisselingh, then to Prof.
Brown OF the Slade School. London, and
after passing through the hands of vari-
Gus individuals and agencies in London
II found Its way here.

yesterday-and others In the group
nodded their assent to his statements
George stood high In his profession. to
which he was absolutely devoted He
was a man OF great ability and was n
clever operator. And money was moth
ing to him.
Dr. KunZ IN appearance looked not
unlike the late John Bunny, and when
he was hailed as Bunny" he always
said he appreciated the compliment"
He was a lover Of Shakespeare and
several nurses said yesterday that when
he had nothing special on his mind he
would quote Shakespeare by the hour"
He established quite reputation at
all the clinics as a mimic" his gift Of
mimicry being great. and he was well
known also as a singer and elocutionist
His keen sense OF humor and his ability
as story teller also went long way
to keep his associates and nurses in
good humor when their work was tell
ing upon them most.
Once or twice n year Dr. Kunz took
long walks In his favorite woods, the
Catsk'lis.. He was student of birds
and was fond of fishing. He even
boosted that he liked rattlesnakes. AL
together he was an all round lover Of
nature-and his profession.

with his friend. Or. George d. Nc
Auliffe, who has Offices at GIG Madison
avenue. He had many patients and
never was happier than when he was
treating difficult case. When n cure
was effected. however, his interest in the
case ceased and II never worried him
whether he was paid for treatment.
Despite the urging OF his friends that he
was entitled to rewards for work well
done. no one apparently could get him
unduly excited about the financial side OF
n professional life. Nobody was aston

Impressive Services Held.
Funeral services for DR.. Kunz took
place In funeral parlors at IL East Thir-
ty-ninth street, and the fact that the
mourners consisted principally of physi-
clans. nurses from hospitals and former
patients who had been cured by his re-
markable skill was the best possible
evidence OF the deep affection for the
man whose unusual services for the poor
Of the city were at an end. There were
not many dry eyes in the place as the
Rev Harry L. Oldheld. pastor of the
Olivet Memorial Church in Second ave-
nue.. opposite the Marble Cemetery, paid
high tribute to the dead man. Miss
Josephine Bracker sang. They buried
the doctor In the Lutheran Cemetery,
Middle Village, l.. l., In a drizzling rain
just before shutdown.
DR.. Runz was a bachelor. He was
born In this city fifty-four years ago.
He was graduated from Bellevue in 1887
and soon after that took UP his life work
on Wards Island. Later he devoted him
self exclusively to work in the city elm
les and dispensaries. and nearly all the
eye. ear, throat and nose clinics became
familiar with his skill
