TO say about the profgatc waste OF money IN
the public service; the high cost ot govern
ment and kindred subjeo;s. Unfortunately fig
urea not at hand whereby tho matter
might bo brought directly home to the reader
Happily We have been able to secure some Off
cal figures with which to embellish and clarity
the subject.
For instance: There was within the district
Of Columbia an July 1. 1911 370OS persons on
the government payroll We have not the fig
ures at hand covering the entire nation on that
date Just two years later, or July f. 1912
tho number had increased to 1O2 d57. while
the other day Representative Wood Of Indiana
presented from the floor OF tho house the
amazing estimate that the total number OF gov
ernment employees aggregated 100000 persons,
Such figures are shocking. Among other
things We see that are not far distant from
that point where one out OF every ten citizens
OF the republic, men, women aud children
counted, Is drawing a livelihood from the gov
ernment. TO put It a bit differently. we have one
political agent Tor about every ten citizens
That is spreading government Just q trifle thick
The figures quoted for July 1917 can hardly
be accepted as normal. either For already the
secret service and the espionage and judicial
ana various departments Of that kind had re-
ccvcd a great number OF additional employees

Miss May Nuke, Cellist,
Appears in Concert Here

Miss May Mukle. 'cellist, whose con-
cert was set down on the program as
zone hour of violoncello music" played
at Aeolian Hall yesterday afternoon. A
sonata in two movements by Frank
Bridge, in which James Friskin con-
tributed assistance as pianist, and five
short pieces by Purcell Warren,
young Englshman who was killed in
action in 1916, were conspicuous fea-
lures of the program. The sonata is
indefinite music, pretentiously planned,
with here and there a gracious theme,
unfortunately, in most cases, almost
completely smothered by the mass of
surrounding detail
Miss Nuke showed a thorough mas
terry of her instrument. She played
with a mellow tone and a sympa thetc
understanding Of the music she was in
terpreting, although in Bridges sonata
her eloquence was spent in trifinq
cause
At the same time Nelson Illingworth,
who made prof ound impression as Il
singer of lieder in English at his frs.
recital here, short time ago, was Civ
ing his second recital at the Princess
Theater The program, as we'll as the
manner in which it was presented, must
have recalled to the mind Of Coenraad
many occasions when he performed q
similar service for DR.. Ludwig Wuell-
ner, for many of the songs given
by Mr. 1llingworth-Schuberts "My
Abode" "Atlas" ard "Afar" and
Strauss "Song of the Stonebreaker"-
were favorites in the repertory of the
German singer. Mr.. Illingworth re-
newed the fine impression left by his
first recital He sang expressively and
with excellent dicton.

Association That Bears Name

High-Water Mark of Fetes
Held in His Honor
Tomorrow His Birthday
Spalding, Codowsky, Bos,
Kinder and Meader Are
Soloists at Aeolian Hall
By II. E. krehbiel

There were elements of unusual In
terest and also of unusual beauty in
the concert given by the Beethoven
Association in Aeolian Hall last night
which made it mark high water in the
current celebrations of the 150th ami
vers-xy of Beethoven's birth, the date
Of which will fall tomorrow. These
elements were due to the singular con-
stitution and methods of the associa-
ton.
It's concerts are in no wise CONNER
cial ventures. Its members are artist
musicians. and those Of them who take
part in the concerts do SO not for
monetary reward, but for love Of art,
to crafty their love for it, and to pay
1t tribute.
The audiences are not only lovers of
good music, but largely also cultivators
of it in their homes, ana bring an
extraordinary capacity for apprecia-
tion and enjoyment with them into
the concert room.
There is therefore between perform
ers and listeners something like that
"angelic wedlock" which Weber, when
composing "Oberon," said ought to
exist between poet and composer.
An Array of Talent
This happy combination enables the
concert-givers to disregard ordinary
considerations in program making and
to perfom music which will contribute
to their own delectation, knowing that
they will be met more than half way
by a similar devotion anc affection on
the part of thar auditors.
1t also enables the association to
enlist the services of larger number
New-York tribune., 1920-12-15

of artists than would be practicable
under ordinary conditions. Thus last
night the solo performers were Albert
Spalding, violin; Leopold Godowsky,
pianforte; Hans Kinder, violoncello;
George Meader. singer; Coenraad v.
bos, accompanist. and tfe orchestra of
the Philharmonic Society, under its
leader, Josef Stransky.
This array of talent. together with
the spirit which informed It. made an
unusual program possible, and the au-
dience was privileged to hear some of
bethoven's music conspicuously absent
from the usual concert lists.
Godowsky, Spalding and Kindler
aided by the orchestra, played the
Triple Concerto, Op. Sc, and Mr.. Meader,
with MIR. Bos to second him, sang the
cycle of songs "An die Ferne Geliebte,"
lyrics: "Wonne der Wehmuth," "Ich
liebe Dich" and "Adelaide."
He sang them all with a purity of
diction, an appreciation of their poeti-
cal and purely musical beauty and a
vocal charm and eloquence which made
them the high light of the entertain
ment. Hand in hard with him went
Mr.. Bos, his accomplishments soaring
with the voice of the singer, inter
helping it to burden the air with its
precious odors.
Not All Imaginative Music
The concerto would have been a
venturesome enterprise under different
conditions. 1t is not all music of the
highly imaginative order, fired with
the genius of the composer. More of
his ingenuity, learning and inventive
ness seems expended upon the elabo-
ration of its material than upon the
creation of its themes, though there is
a spreading of the pinions for a flight
into the upper ether in the slow move
ment, as there always is in Beethoven's
music.
In an Andante or an Adagio he must
reeds raise hymn or utter pious
supplication; praise or prayer is his
then. The orchestral numbers con-
sisted of the overture to "Prometheus"
and the happy, jocund frequently bois-
terously merry symphony in F. No. s,
and it was played with fine spirit. The
voice of the orchestra sounded par
ticularly euphonious, as we'll as home
geneous, in the small room.
