PHILHARMONIC CONCERT
Joseph Pasternaek Conducts Fourth
Entertainment of the Series

The fourth Of the series Of concerts
given by the Philharmonic Society Of
Philadelphia took place at the Shubert
Theatre last evening. before the largest
and most enthusiastic crowd that has
yet attended. An interesting program
was given under the leadership Of JOS
eph Pasternack, the soloist being Miss
Viola Brodbeck, soprano.
The orchestral numbers included the
Merry Wives Of Windsor" overture,
Liszt's LES Preludcs," the blue
Danube" waitzes, prelude to the "Meis-
tersinger," the ballet music from lie
Cid' of Massenet and Chabrier's "Es-
pana." Miss Brodbeck sang an aria
from 'Traviata' and Bishops "Lo,
the Gentle Lark" for an encore, the
hute obbligato to the latter being well
played BY Joseph La Monaco.
The chief interest in the concert, how
ever, was In the work of Mr.. Paster-
mack, who made bis first public appear
ance in Philadelphia as q conductor.
His readings were individual and hiShly
temperamental, and he seemed to know
the effects that he wanted and how to
secure them. There was some tendency
toward exaggeration In tempo at places
and evidently more attention was paid
to securing dynamic contrasts than to
tonal beauty or to the balancing of
equally important parts, the last being
especially noticeable in the "Meister- :
singer" However, he is a conductor
of ability and the results he secured were
remarkable when It Is considered that
he had but one rehearsal with the or :
chastra, even II II Ia one of the highest
trained body OF musiciaps In the world.
Miss Brodbeck sang well, showing q
soprano voice Of great range and much
clarity in the upper register Her train
ing has been excellent and she Las a fne
technique and good control of her voice.

Mrs. Helen Mathews Holt.

Mrs. Helen M Holt died Christmas
Eve at the home of her son-in-law, E.
Frank Knowlton, at the age Of "a years.
The end came quietly after an illness of
about nine weeks. Mrs. Holt was born
in Lincolnville, the daughter of Anthony
and Sarah tBarretD Mathews She was
the last but one living of the eleven chill
dren born to this couple. After her mar
rage to Frank Holt of B.lfast she re-
moved to that city, making her homo
there for several years. Thirty-seven
years ago she came to Camden, where
she resided until her death. She leaves
one sister, Mrs. Alice l. Thombs of Bel
fast, one granddaughter, Miss Alice
Knowlton of Camden and numerous
nieces and nephews. Mrs. Holt was a
woman of rare activity of mind and body
and her keen intellect was not dimmed
by advancing years or the encroachments
of disease. Her unusual musical talent
made her welcome guest in many homes
and places of entertainment, where her
rich contralto voice was often heard.
1t is of interest to recall that all of the
members of this large family were sing
ers, including the father, who also play
ed the violin, and it is safe to say that in
at least three counties of Maine the
Mathews Sisters were known far and
wide for their musical ability. no gather
ing being complete without some music
from this talented family. Mrs. Holt
continued most active interest in all
matters pertaining to music as long as
she lived. She was tenderly cared for
during her declining years in the home
which had SO long been hers, receiving
every care and attention from the mem
bers of the household, the kind ministra-
tons of friends and of skilled nurses.
She was especially comforted with the
atfectionate devotion of her granddaugh-
ter. The funeral services were held Sat-
urday afternoon, being conducted by
Rev. L. D. Evans and Rev. H. |. Holt of
the Elm street Congregational church,
which church Mrs. Holt attended many
years. The bearers were j. E. Thombs
of Belfast, Herbert Frohock of Halo
well and J. F. Coombs of Camden,
nephews of the deceased and T. j.

surrounded her as evidence of the love
and respect of relatives, friends and
