THE PALACE.

In pre- senting Evidence" as the leading screen feature for three days begin ming Monday, the Palace is offering visualized drama that meets every requirement needed to make a sue cessful and interesting picture. In Evidence" Miss Hammerstein ap- pears in the guise of an actress who marries a scion of wealth against the advice of his aristocratic family. As a consequence the bride gets chilly welcome to the inner circle of snob- bery and in the long run is obliged to work out her own salvation despite the good intentions of her hubby who remains in the background. The man. ner in which the actress turns the tables upon her tormenters Is a sur prising bit of scenario writing, and the Happy ending" is arrived at by means of a bot of acting that will de- light the host of theater goers.
 A special added feature for the first half of the week will be Round 3 of The Leather Pushers." This serial visualization of H. C. Witwer's fam ous stories of society and the prize ring has developed great popularity with Paalce audiences.

MISS RUBINSTEIN
IN VIOLIN RECITAL
Appears to Better Advantage
Than When She Made Debut.

Miss Erna Rubinstein, violinist, who
recently made her debut at a philhar-
monic concert, was heard in recital last
evening In Town Hall. Her program
included the Bruch G minor concerto,
Paganini's variations on the G string
and Vieuxtemps's 'Ballade and Polo
naise." The impressions made at Miss
Rubinstein's first appearance were deep
ened last night. and one was corrected
The uncertain acoustics of the hall in
which she was previously heard made
her tone seem comparatively small,
whereas it was shown last evening to
be large and in so far as the G string
was concerned really massive.
Miss Rubinstein has splendidly de-
veloped bow arm with an elastic and
sensitive wrist which is q tower of ar
tistic strength In itself. She produces
not only large, but a beautiful tone
from her instrument, and her aradations
of force are admirably managed Her
phrasing shows taste, and. combined
with keen sense Of rhythm, imparts
TO her playing a rich musical quality
too frequently missing in the perform
ances of youthful players.
One does not need to take Miss Rubin
STEMS years into account when listen
ing to her. To be sure her playing
will undoubtedly sound greater depths
when she has known more of the expert
ences Of the artist. but at present it is
soundly musical, opulent In warmth of
the surface and brilliant in technical
mastery. Her performance OF the slow
movement of the Bruch concerto was
exceptionally beautiful in repose, fin
ish and justness of conception. ~
