Trio Pleases Large Audience
In Concert at Town Hal!

A remarkably pleasing performance
was given by the Elshuco Trio in it's
second concert yesterday evening at
the Town Hall, with program of Paul
Juon sandwiched between Mozart and
Beethoven. The Juon "Trio- Caprice"
was rhythmic and generally tuneful,
with passages suggesting Cesar Franck
favored with Debussy, but punctuated
by vigorous and explosive outbursts of
q more Teutonic type.
The Beethoven trio in B fiat began
the program, which ended with the
c major trio by Mozart, all three num-
bers receiving an excellent perform
ance, spirited and we'll proportioned.
Aurelio Giorni refrained from over
shadowing the others with the piano
part, while Elias Breeskin on the
violin and William Willeke on the
cello played as one man, with excep-
tional coordination in passing motifs
back and forth, as in the Beethoven
scherzo and finale. A good sized au-
dience gave hearty applause.

Coalition Defeat
Laid to Transit Act
And Meyer Probers
Chairman Price Says Repnb-
Leans in City Lack Proper
Leadership; Women lg-
nored, Asserts Miss Hay

Joseph M. Price. who was chairman
Of the coalition committee which helped
in naming the Republican coalition
candidates who were defeated on
November 8, said last night that the
two big factors which contributed to
the defeat Of the CurranLockwood-
Glroy ticket were the Meyer commit
tee and Governor Millers transit act.
Mr.. Prices statement was made at a
dinner held Mt Luchow's, at which he
presided, and which was attended by
members Of the coalition committee,
the Citizens Union, the Young Repub-
lican Club, the Young Democratic Club
and other organizations, including the
Women's City Club.
Mr.. Price said that the Republican
party in this city lacked the proper
sort of leadership He said that this
plus the fact that people believed that
Mayor Hylan saved the tlve-cent fare
helped in the defeat. He gave it as his
opinion that Mayor Hylan did save the
five-cent fare. Mr. Price advocated the
formation of a municipal party strong
enough to dictate the nominees four
years hence and the introduction OF
partisan primaries.
at is necessary to get moro than

must get the liberal and radical vote
The Republican party must be educated

that they cannot win in this city will

Woods Charges Managers
Failed to Support Him
Question Was Revocation of
Theater License. Not Moral
ity of'Demi-Virgin. He SAYS

A. H. Woods yesterday explained
bership in the Producing Managers
Association. His action was taken. not
because he failed to receive support in
his efforts to prove that "The Demi-
Virgin" was moral play. but because
he failed to receive the members sup
port in testing the power of the Com
missioner of Licenses to revoke the
license of legitimate theater, accord
ing to his statement.
"Whether The Demi-Virgin' is i'm
moral or not will be decided in the
courts and not by the Producing Man
ayers Association. l produced it on
the assumption that it was moral and
within the law, and unless the courts
decide to the contrary shall continue
to believe that have produced n moral
play in The Demi- Virgin without ask
ing the confirmation of my fellow
managers" said Mr.. Woods.
On the advice of his counsel, Mr..
Woods says, he obtained an injunction
preventing Commissioner of Licenses
Gilchrist from revoking the license of
the Eltinge Theater, where the play in
question is playing. He planned to
eSst lhe missioner 5 powers IN con-
nection with the revocation Of the Ii
censes of legitimate theaters

on the Rotterdam for France, where
his former wife, Mrs. Mary O'Gorman
Malone, has been engaged in the re-
construction work of the Roman Cath

Mystery Surrounds Ceremony
Mr.. Malone refused to say where the
ceremony took place or who performed
it He has sought consistently to sur
round his contemplated second mar
riage with the same secrecy which at
tended the divorce obtained by his
frst wife. Although she obtained the
decree last summer, it was not until
December 2 that it became public.
A few days later the report spread
and was published that Mr. Malone had
engaged passage on the Rotterdam for
Mr.. and Mrs. Malone" The report
proved false, but the rumor that Mr..
Malone intended to marry Miss Stevens
e. an early date persisted. Mr.. Malone
denied it. along with the report con-
cerniug the reservation on the Rotter-
dam,
"The only truth there is in that" he
said, "is that l am sailing on the Rot
terdam Saturday,"
Miss Stevens is the daughter of Mrs.
Il. s. Stevens, of Omaha. Her home in
this city is at 120 West Eleventh Street.

"Parsifal' Given in Afternoon

There were changes enough in the
cast Of "Parsifal" as compared with
that of last year to suggest that the
drama had been subjected to q pretty
thorough overhauling. Perhaps it had,
but the results were not strikingly in
evidence at the performance yesler-
day afternoon. a change which might
have added to the intelligibilty of the
text was that Of Mr.. Gustafson for
Mr.. Blass in the character of Gurne-
manz, for ME- Gustafson's enunciation
was admirably distinct. Unfortu nately
the part needs more that distinct
ness Of speech; it needs also dis
tinction in defamation and action, and
with this quality Nh. Gustafson t0iled
to imbue it. There was, indeed. little
Of spiritual eXaltation in any feature
Of the representation and that little
had its finest manifestation in the
attitude OF the audience toward the
work
Several rounds Of applause followed d
the second fall of the curtain, but
after this every attempt to express
gratitude or pleasure was suppressed
and the audience sat quietly in its
seats while the final tableau was twice
revealed 1t was as if the representa-
tion had effected something like an
ancient act Of purifcation, like the
dance when it was an element of re-
ligious ritual.
There were changes in the personnel
of the flower maidens' chorus and also
in others of the minor parts, but they
call for nothing more than record Mr.
Meader replaced Mr.. Picco as one OF
the esquires, as did Mr.. laurent and
Mr.. Audisio. Miss Tilva, who promises
to be useful member of the COM
pany, filled the part formerly taken by
Jeanne Gordon, and Misss Ingram made
way for Miss Myrtle Schaaf. Mr.
Bodanzky conducted as usual, and the
audience filled, though it did not
crowd, the theater.

Answers
To Correspondents

10 the Society Editor; Has a
preacher, because he is stewed with
home brew, any more right to throw
his arms around a lady and kiss her,
than any other man. The reason
ask is that because the lady resented
such familiarity and started to make
a roar, the preacher asked his friends
to intercede for him on the grounds
that he was a preacher, q well known
preacher at that. old Sinner.
Answer: It all depends upon what
church employs the preacher, and
whether the lady is member of his
parish, or not. Some preachers con-
fine their promiscuous kissing to
members of their own flock, while
others confine it to members Of the
other fellows flock. Then too, it
depends somewhat upon the stage Of
drunkenness the preacher had. reach.
ed: If he was tao drunk to distinguish
between members and non-members,
or was accused to the extent of kiss
ing his own wife thru mistake OF
otherwise, there may be extenuating
circumstances. As a rule, a preacher
who does not practice what he preach
es has no more rights and privileges
than man who practices what he
does not preach. There are angles to
this question which are too deep for
this department to deal with, and we
suggest that it be referred to the Dev
lis Lake Rotary club. u

HALF CROP HELD!
Much Wheat Is Still In
Bins OF The
Farmers

Washington, March 9. - Larger
stocks of grain were on farms March
1 this year than on that date in any
other year in history. Wheat was the
only exception, the holdings in 1910,
following the only billion bushel crop,
having exceeded this years holdings
100000 bushels.
Almost half Of the country's rec
ord corn crop Of last year remained
on farms March I, more than a quar-
ter Of the wheat crop and almost half
Of the large crop Of oats, according
to the department Of agriculture's
estimates, announced today.
Low Prizes; Is Cause
The large crops 1of last year and
decreased grain prices are believed to
be largely responsible for the heavier
holdings of farmers. Holdings Of corn
were more than half billion bushels
larger than a year ago while wheat
holdings were about $4,000, 1000 BUSH
els more.
With few exceptions the principal
wheat producing states were holding
larger stocks on farms than year
ago. la
