knowledge.

The New York Public Library is the
only public institution in the city
which offers an opportunity for the
study of the literature of music, in
Guiding under this head the works of
composers of music, books on the the
ory of music and books about music
and musicians. The Institute of
Institute of Musical Art and COlum-
bia University both have collections
of musical books, but they are in
tended primarily for the use of the
students of these schools and they
do not compare in size or value with
the collection of the New York Public
Library.
In the matter Of modern opera
scores the Boston Public Library,
which now owns the collection of Al
len A. Brown, surpasses the New York
Public Library, listing 1000 operas
in its catalogue. In 1915 there were
approximately 10000 orchestral and
vocal scores in the Washington Ii
Drary. rive years later New hork nau
less than 1,600.
In orchestra music, chamber music,
piano. violin and vocal music the dit
ference between Washington and New
York is still greater.
Altho the New York library is not
the best equipped music library in
America, the number of readers who
actually use the music collection is

real thing; it belongs to the same
category as dreams, visions and bold
winged hopes, and nothing clear or
substantial is given us. but the idea
and the sentiment, which the artist
awakens in us thru the general impress
sion.
The artist speaxs in melodies as does
the musician. We have the music of
the ballad and the oratorio, of the
hymn and the opera, each is true
music, but we must not mistake one
kind for another, and in the same way
there are different kinds of pictures.
In the first place we must find out
what the artist intends to say. II
the expressions do not please us. we
may criticise the language the artist
has used. The public should be cd
ucated to notice the Language, the
technic, as it is called, as much as the
idea the picture presents. In land
scape harmony should prevail. The
cooler tones should be noticed melting
into one another; how sharp and hard
contrasts are avoided; how unity is
produced thru the atmosphere; how
the many lines producing the picture
are brought into the proper relations
to one another. AL these should be
observed, compared and judged. There
are contrasts in nature which would
produce unpleasant effects in PIC
ture, but owing to the many impress
sions in nature do not have the same
effect for the great eternal harmony

strengthened by the minor contrasts.
The Observers mind is not fastened

look for truth in picture. 1t Is

Unlike Pilatus, one should allow time
to answer this question. There are
many kinds of truth. Truth in sun
life is different from truth in pic
turc of ideas. The latter may not rep
resent a single detail truly and may
still be true" it may even contain
a greater truth than picture, with

District Attorney Gets Testi-

Mayor Hylan made no more yester-
day looking to the removal of Edwin
J. O'Malley from the Office Of Commits
sioner OF Markets. but the Meyer in
vestigating committee and the District
Attorneys Office began assembling the
evidence to be presented to the Sep
TENDER Grand Jury tending to show
that bribery has been practised in the
sale of city privileges in Washington
Market.
Announcement was made at the Dis
trict Attorneys Office that the graft
ing evidence would have clear road
way in its presentation to the Grand
Jury to be sworn in next Tuesday.
Fully half dozen cases will be taken
up. All of the evidence offered before
the Meyer committee is being put in
shape for speedy consideration.
The committees hearings scheduled
for yesterday and to-day we're postponed
because OF the illness of Ellon r. Brown
senior counsel, who was unable to pro-
coed. Adjournment was taken until
next Thursday. Members Of the COM
rnittee were in their seats and Aiming
s.. Prall, president of the Board of Edu-
cation, was present, prepared TO take the
stand as the first witness in an investi-
cation OF his department. when Senator
Mayer received word that ex-senator
Brown would be unable to attend.
City officials Astonished.
City officials expressed surprise yes
terdady when Mayor Hylan took no
action dealing with Commissioner
O'Malley. The understanding in City
Hall was that the judgment OF most OF
the Mayors advisers was that O'Malley
should be dismissed because Of his con-
duct on the witness stand on Wednes-
day.
The Mayor decided overnight,it was
stated, TO keep hands off in the O'Mal-
ley case for the present. but no formal
or official word came from his office re-
garding his attitude. While the Hylan
administration generally appeared to
join in criticising O'Malley for running
away from a cross-examination, the
Mayor himself took no notice Of the in
cident.
Although O'Malley's charge that he
was the victim of the Meyer commit
tees attack because he had offended a
food trust by refusing to vote for
George f. Hogue for Commissioner OF
the State Department of Farms and
Markets. proved complete fizzle when

Driving home the fact that the peo-

than what had happened in Albany,

President Henry II. Curran last night
continued his campaign for the Re-
publican nomination for Mayor. He
spoke in Queens and Brooklyn. At the
club house Of Jacob Bartscherer, Re-
publican leader or the Nineteenth AS
sembly district, COS Hart street, Will
iamsburg, he said.
This is the most curious primary
campaign ever have seen. The air is
fun of strange cries. Day after day
we hear about matters that can only
be settled in Albany or at Washing
ton, or that took place four years ago."
Let us leave these other cities and

New York of to-day. The other day l
heard about a mother OF three children
who has to get three different break
fasts and three different lunches. each
one at different time, because each OF
the three children goes 10 school at a

ferent time. and so the mother has to
get six meals instead Of two. That Is

reopened his attack on the committee
along this line the moment the adjourn
ment Of the hearings was announced.
The action OF the committee in send
ing its evidence to the District Attorney
for criminal prosecution did not move
the Mayor. Even IL Mr. Hylan did not
take action there were signs Of de-
cided GOODNESS between him and Com
missioner O'Malley.

Four Years Of Batting.

Il have not heard a word in this pri-
mary campaign so far about schools.
You and ] know that we need more
schools, and then more. We have seen
four years OF batting OF the Board of
Education by the Board OF Estimate. In
stead of building schools, they have been
busy building bonflres under the Board
Of Educa ton.
Where does this get us? I'll tell you.
How many new schools do you think we
have ready to-day as a product OF tho
present city administration? The num-
Der is two-just two. There is little
addition in The Bronx. and there Is a
new school at Forest Hills. and that is
all, to take care OF 100000 children on
part time.
