sYMPHONY'S CONCERT.
Orchestra Plays New Composition
by John Powell.

A highly interesting concert by the
New York Symphony Orchestra took
place in Aeolian Hall yesterday after
noon with a programme featuring new
composition by John Powell and Har-
old Bauer as the soloist.
Mr. Powelrs new piece Is an overture
entitled "In Old Virginia" II was first
heard at the Norfolk Festival last sum-
mer. The notes spoke OF one of the two
old negro songs used In the building OF
the overture as tune Mr.. Powell used
TO hear his old nanny sing In his
childhood lin Virginia). There are many
other tunes, the second principal one be-
ing "Crar de Kitchen, Ole Folks, Young
Folks" also an old Scotch dance tune.
and in u trium, hant moment comes
"Dixie Land" Mr.. Powell himself has
said his new work Is simple rather than
pretentious and that he tried In 1t TO ex-
press the gaiety and the romantic spirit
OF Virginian life In 1860. just before 1t
was overtaken by the war. The com
position is a fine piece Of orchestration,
but one which perhaps might be con-
densed a bit.
The overture was finely played and
scored a striking success with the audi
ence. The composer had to rise several
times In his box and receive the ap-
plause. Mr.. Bauer was heard in Mo-
zart's A major piano concerto, which fol-
lowed the same masters symphony in E
fat No. 3. Only comments Of the high
est praise are due Mr.. Bauer for his re-
poseful and beautifully finished perform
ance of the music. Mr.. Damrosch' 8
reading of the symphony was much
liked. Lekeu's adagio for strings and
Cesar Francks symphonic poem, Les
Djinns," in which Mr.. Bauer played the
obbligato. finished the concert.

anniversary celebration Of the New York
Bible Society at the Collegiate Church

vanced by opponents of Christianity
that between Friday night and Sunday
morning the people forgot where Jesus
was buried and then mistook an empty
tomb for the one in which he was placed
is too ridiculous to be considered"
"The world is full Of Things don't
understand" said Sir William. "and as
for proof the highest knowledge is
called incapable OF proof. Any fool will
believe what he can prove. 1t takes a
wise man to believe what cannot be
proved. Mark knew nothing OF the birth
of Christ. John ignored II. Only Mat
