ORCHESTRA PLAYS
IN FINEST FORM
Third Concert of Season, Win
Andre Maquarre - Solo Fmtise.
at The Playhouse.

A composite peogsn was punssd
in = v~rv saftsfactoYy mAuna1 BY the
Philadelphia Orchestra at Ths Playhousc
last evening. the occasion boing The chlru
concert Of tho present season ana thc
procrnm comprising The Gluck overture
to Hlphigsnie, The Mozart sympho0y
in c and two Wagner numbefe-ths
Siogfliod Funeral March and the Master
singers overture.
The opcfs form Of 177o makes A.
strong q contrast with that of present day
vu4ue as exists bctween tho costumes Of
then and now. But the "Iphigenic'
overture seems less remote than much
of the music Of its time because of its
relatively frce form; the very quality
that made it an innovation in its day.
There is q haunting melancholy m its
theme which holds its charm today
and makes one think of modern French
music. 1t WAS very we'll rendered by the
players, the characteristic turns" by
the first violins being especially noticeable
for their sInoothness.
The Mosart symphony has been
christened the Jupiter" and it Is ranked
by the analysts as occupying pinnacle
Of achievement as lofty in comparison
was played with precision that enabled
its admirers to follow, in their degree,
the development of theme and counter
theme, the whole complex and formal
prpssody OF musical structure which Is
found In this work 20 completely cx-
pressed.
The interest for tho uninitiated m
musical mysteries resides in the pleasing
nees of the melodies and harnonies,
which marked the second and third
movements. The former calls for the
sordino on all the strings. which produces
an effect Of vciled remotcness that il
very haunting. The latter, "Minuet and
Trio" is bright and sparkling in its tempo
and rhythm and was daintily played
The Wagner Funeral March WAS
ceivable that it could be better done
and lifted the souls of those to whom
this masters emotionalism makes ap-
peal. Its inclusion in tho program recalled
the tribute to. the memory Of the late
Mrs. A. J. Cassatt paid by the audience
in Philadelphia last week, which stood
during its performance.
The "Mastersingers" overture Wa also
well done, but came as an anti-elimAx
on the program.
The soloist of the occasion W. one

Allies Find Thousands
Of Hidden Teut Guns

Paris, March. 29.--Three thousand
five hundred three-inch field guns
have been found by the inter-allied
commission in the vicinity of Berlin,
alone, and altogether 10000 of these
guns have thus far been discovered
throughout Germany, al well as 5000
airplanes intact.
These discoveries and other inform
alton in possession or the French aut-
hcrities have caused considerable
skepticism here as for the reason Civ
ell for the request of the Berlin gov
eminent that it be permitted to send
into the neutral and occupied
zones
Thus far, however, it was stated by
Il high official here today, no evidence
had been obtained by the commission
OF any destruction OF material by the
Germans. Lists have been furnished,
it was said, but it has been impossible
to verify them up to this time, as
Premier Millerand declared yesterday
in the chamber of deputies.

South Dakota Farm Women
Getting Modern Homes

Brookings, s ID, April 3l.-Much
greater interest Is now being shown
in modern homes on South Dakota
farms than ever before. This Is evil
denced by the fact that more than
three times as many requests for IN
formation and blue print plans OF the
septic tank for sewage disposal on the
farm have been received by the State
college extension division this winter
than ever before. County agents over
the state are also receiving these In
ouiries an are actively engage In fur
thering the good work.
r. l.. Patty, the engineer in extern
sion does not believe that the farmers
of South Dakota are more active In
improving conditions for their live
stock than they are in improving the
conditions of the home, in spite OF the
fact that this is an impression gener-
! ally given out in many parts OF the
country. He says he has noticed the
progressive livestock breeders over the
state are improving the equipment In
the homes for their families before
they nut the modern improvements In
their stock barns, and this Is certainly
as it should be.
It is interesting to note that plans
ere being sent to ranchers in the wes-
tern part Of the state in the same pro-
norton as to the farmers in the cas-
tern part. II there are n women In
the country who deserve the health
protection and conveniences OF the
modern house, they are on the farms
Of South Dakota.

This statement was made by wo-
man suffrage leaders who nave beeh
following the political Developments

W. Reinecke, Chicago, secretary OF
The woman's section OF the Republican
national committee, declared this
morning that fourteen out of the 257
delegates that have been elected thus
far are women.
If the predictions Of the suffrage
leaders are fulfilled the Republican
rarity will be face to face with an en-
tirely new political situation.

ment as far as national politics is con-
eerned, are not yet entitled to a vote
