TOSCHA SEIDEL PLAYS WITH
MINNEAPOLIS SYMPHONY.

Another rare musical treat was
afforded the concert goers of the
Twin Cities, when Toscha Seidel
played as soloist with the Symphony
in St. Paul and Minneapolis Auditor
iums, on Thursday and Friday eve
nings respectively. He played the
Mendelssohn Concerto in i Minor
and took the crowded auditoriums by
storm. His playing of the Andante
movement reminded us of the early
days of Ysaye, Elman and Kubelik.
These artists were famed for their
rendition of the Mendelssohn con-
certo. The writer heard them in the
composition and admired them all,
but cannot recollect any one of them
play it with so much poetry and ro-
nance, with such soul and beauty as
did Mr.. Seidel on these evenings. He
was scheduled to leave on the 1926
train for New York, and had to make
haste, for he was the last number on
the program. He had no intention
to play encores but did not get away
until he had played three. The first
one was a special arrangement of
Paderewski's minuet, arranged by
Leopold Auer, the second was the
Chorus of the Dervishes" Of the
ruins Of Athens" by Beethoven, and
the last one, cave Maria" by Schu-
bert. He finished just eight minutes
of train time. Had it depended upon
the audience he would have missed
midnight train, if there were such a
thing.

THE OPINION OF A GERMAN
CHRISTIAN OF POLISH AND
GERMAN JEWS.

Dresden, Saxony (By I. J. P. 3D.
An interesting article against anti
Semitism has been published by
Niko1aus Osterroth, deputy of the
German Parliament. 1t relates a
number of experiences with Jews
during the war.
Herr Osterroth, in 1915, was sent
to Kalisch, a well-known town in
Poland, to preserve order after
massacre of the Jews by German
army. In the article he tells the
following story of his stay there:
"a sick old Jew, of little money
but many children, had rented sew
eral cherry trees by which to support
his large family. One evening my
soldiers shook off his cherries and
when he protested, abused and beat
him. When I was informed of this
I wished to punish the offenders but
the old man would not have it and
pleaded for his tormentors. An
epidemic broke out some time later
and one of my soldiers and I fell

During an interview granted by.
Toscha Seide1 to one of the local
newspaper reporters at the Radisson
hotel at which were also present the
mother of the artist and the writer,
Mr.. Seidel was asked whether or not
the fact that he is a Jew binders him
in any way in his work. II don't
think so," said Mr.. Seide1, 'but I
could have been a millionaire ten
times if I were willing to give up my
Jewish faith, but would rather give

II You Need a Medicine
You Should Have the Best

Have you ever stopped to reason why
} is that so many products that are ex-
snsively advertised, all at once drop out
4 sight and are soon forgotten? The
-eason is plain-the article did not fulfill
the promises of the manufacturer This
applies more particularly to a medicine.
A medicinal preparation that has real
curative value almost sells itself, as like
an endless chain system the remedy is
recommended by those who have been
benefited, to those who are in need of it.
A prominent druggist says Take for
example DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root,
preparation l have sold for many years
and never hesitate to recommend, for in
almost every case it shows excellent re-
suits, as many of my customers testify.
No other kidney remedy has so large a
sale"
According to sworn statements and
verified testimony of thousands who have
used the preparation, the success of Dr..
Kilmer's Swamp Root is due to the fact,
90 many people claim, that it fulflls al
most every wish in overcoming kidney,
liver and bladder ailments; corrects uri-
nary troubles and neutTalizes the uric
acid which causes rheumatism.

Swamp Root by Parcels Post. Address

 Incidentally. MT. Harrison calls ali tention to the very significant fact inc Southern system earned $64207S over and above what the federal guar artv would have been for the past six months. This vindicated the roads declination to come in for the guar artv and work on its own account and speaks also for the prosperity of the south.

Iitor of The Age-Herald

To the Editor of The Age-Herald:
 am enclosing the monster mogpl picture which I cut from the front page of your paper this morning. purporting to represent the voter as though he IS straining at gnat when refusing to vote for the league covenant. thereby indorsing our present dictator, Woodrow Wilson's administration.
 Replying to same. I wish to state that I have contributed $1 to the democratic campaign and supported every demo- cratic candidate. from Grover Cleveland down to and even our present dictator. Woodrow Wilson, but will not do so on November next.
 There are many other reasons than the League of Nations covenant. one oi which l am clipping from the National Republican, which is published in Wash ington, D. C., that 1 cannot support Mir Cox on November next.
 Woodrow wilson's administration ha. been the most extravagant, autocratie set of dictators that has ever been pro duced or introduced since George Wash ing and Thomas Jefferson established the institution of free government, and f like Senator Harding and large ma jority of the citizens of the United states of America. want to go back to th. Washington, Jefferson, Madison an' Monroe government.
 You may publish these, clippings ans this letter, too. if you want to. Yonr' truly, J. E. LEETH.

Dr. Stuart Makes Reply
 To Anonymous Charges

asscssing his property this year, q large number of hand bills would be published and distributed throughout the city.
 Dr. Sfuart's reply. in which he showed the charges to be false, was very short. but much to the point. He expressed his contempt, in no uncertain terms. for any person who would he SO cowardIy as to write an anonymous letter of that type. It wns true. he said. that at mobiles, hut at the time of listing his property he had sold one of them and listed the other for more thnn local automobile firm has snid it was worth.
 The furniture of the parsonage belongs to the church. and preacher's library is not taxed. Dr. stuart snid that he would give the writer Si,OOO in cash to find and prove n blot on his character as man or in financial transac- tiOns.
 The feeling for the pastor broke strong applause followed his re- marks. It was very evident from the expression that if the writer was present he was alone in his opinion regarding the preacher.

CAR LINE: TERMINUS
 IS UNDER DISPUTE

Where on the hill shall the South High land car stop?
 That is the question which is agitatiny the dwellers in the neighborhood ot Fifteenth avenue and Twentieth street. south, where the car track has it's stop- ping place at present. A hearing has been set to discuss the matter before the city commissioners tomorrow afternoon at 3 o'clock
 Half of the residents want the stop- ping place to remain where its at Inc corner of Fifteenth avenue and Tven- tieth street; the other half want it con- tinued around the corner so it will not inconvenience traffic
 Many recommend that the track ps extended to meet the Edgewood track, so on special occasions car can go clear through to Edgewood and also in order that Edgewood cars may come into the car barn for repairs.
 That last suggestion was also made. of course, by the Birmingham Railway. Light and Power Company. The whole crux of the argument IS. to be brtes. whether the city shall permit the two tracks, Edgewood and South Highland. to be joined together or not.
 Protesting citizens are being notified of the hearing Tuesday.

 The letter charged that the pas tor was not living up to the dOc- Urine thnt he preached. The writer admitted that the preaching was good and that Dr. stuart was do- ing some good in the world by his preaching, but 1t was his opinion that he should walk the path of rectitude n little straighter.
 The burden of the anonymous epistie was to the effect that Dr. stuart had not been honest in the listing of his property for taxation. It said that while he had two au- fomObiies, pr. Stuart had only listed one for taxation, and that valued at only $500. this being far pastor of the First Methodist Church would own.
