YOUNG PIANIST
At KEITH 'SF|NDS
GOAL IN DUO,ART
Reproductions by Daisy NeIiis
Comprise List Covering
Many Musical Tastes.

II is interesting to find. under The
title Familiar Melodies" that Daisy
Nellis--in a group Of concert piano
solos at Keith's this WEEKS claira-
ing for this list such music as The
Liszt ''Liebestraum," the Psderew-
ski "Minuet," In connection with an
elaborate transcription of "Annle
Laurie" and last but decidedly not
least the Dvorak "Humoresque'
given for piano while the orchestra
plays "swanee River" softly, making
a fascinating combination.
Such a selection, for q vaudeville
audience--that includes Everybody.
and all sorts and conditions of taste
--is significant. 1t means one thing!
IL means that today the best of music
Is known by everybody. And that hsfs
come to pass, in the osse of this
whirlwind little pianist, through her
reproduced playing.
Daisy Nellis, who Is a pupil Of
Rudolph Ganz. has played four rec
ords for the Duo-Art piano reproduo-
tons of the Aeolian Company. At
Keith's she is playing the Mac
Dowell Concert Btude," with bril-
liant fluency though perhaps not the
poetic response one desires In his
broad sweeping themes. Her quick,
sparkling technique, however, ia
both dainty and rollioling in the
Irish Country Dance" and she sings
out crystal-clear piano tones I'm The
Liszt la Campsnella," which de.
notes the bells of a ohurohly tower
In a Catholic country.
The story OF La CampanellAr
shows how Liszt, the greatest elsb-
orator Of melody into brilliant piano
"transcriptions," took a theme of
the great violin virtppso Pagnaniai
and made IL into one of the most
daring and successful OF piano Nir-
tuoso compositions.
Here the piano intones the bells
In quality that is usually obtained
only from an entire orchestra. 1t In
a study In the "triclos' OF piano, it
takes an artist to SO sing out the
ringing bells, and beneath these notes
to hold the melody through a per.
feet maze OF runs and trills and
plano yirtposity.
Daisy NeIlis has made Duo-Art
records Of another TRANSCRIPTION" In
the Schubert-Liszt "Serenade" thnt
~ interesting for its beauty and also
TO find out how Liszt again elab-
grated the lovely Schubert song
Also she has recorded two 0risg
works, the massive 'Eroticon" love
Poem). and one Of a suite Of
Sketches" OF Norwegian Life" that
is a typical scene OF a Norwegian
Carnival"
II In particularly valuable to CON
meet music heard thus. In concert
form, with the permanent music that
reFnaina with ma alwavn This Int.
ter music needs to know the artist.
from the personal standpoint. TO
better show It's individuality. Daisy
Nellls is essentially brilliant as a
pianist. Her fleetness Of execusion is
one OF her strongest characteristics

Wealthy New York Man Says
Ne Was Kept Prisoner
Three Days.

NEW YORK, April t4.--Malvena
Richman, twenty-one years old who
has an apartment az 1S7 Riverside
Drive. was arrested yesterday on the
complaint Of Angus X. Nicholson. a
broker, with offices at e2 Broad
street. Nicholson charges he was
held prisoner In her apartment fof
three days In March and robbed. The
young woman, who said she was q
moving picture actress. and that she
came here two years ago from Holly
wood, Cal. was held In s6.00e bail
for examination Saturday.
Nicholson Is forty-five years old,
married, and Is connected with the
stock brokerage firm of l.. l.. Winkel-
man 4 Co He Is reputed TO be
wealthy.
His formal complaint alleged that
while in Miss Richman's apartment
between p m, March "a, and p m.
March 27. he was robbed of an
emerald pin worth $1,000, a walking
stick with a rhinooeros tooth handle
valued at $500, and ssoo In cash. II
was further alleged that since March
"a Nicholson has been III at his home
at 215 West Ninety-first street, where
he lives with his wife.
Held Captive, Lawyer Says.
This man fell into the clutches Of
the woman and one or two Of her con-
federates who kept him In her home
broker told the court. He was in a
dazed eondition. All Efforts to reach
him failed, and when his chauffeur
called at the apartment he was told
that Mr.. Nicholson was not there"
The lawyer would not say whether
or not Mr.. Nicholson thought be had
been drugged. At the brokers home
today Il was said that both he and
Mrs. Nicholson were out.
Detective Trojan, who arrested
Miss Richman. said the police had
been working on the case since
March 27. He said that a man
known as Joe Levy" presented a
number Of checks signed by Mr..
Nicholson at the Chatham and Phe-
nix National Rams branch In Thirty
fifth street. which the bank refused
to honor as payment had been
stopped. One of these checks, Il was
said, was for. $4,000 and another for
$4,000. ~
Through her chained apartment
door last night Miss Riehmsn denied
the charge and declared twas absurd
to think that Nichoisor had been
robbed in her home. She said she
met Nicholson two months ago
through another young woman.
Nicholson told her over the telephone
on March "a to go TO his office with
her friend, Mrs. Mitchell. The
actress said she drove in her car to
SO Broad street, met Nicholson and
had some drinks" She said that
afterward Nicholson became intoxl-
Gated, that Mrs. Mitchell drove him
to the apartment at 1877 Riverside
Drive, that Nicholson handed her his
money, that Mrs. Mitcheu's maid was
called and that Nicholson was put 70
bed. She said he did not carry a
cane.
''I handed his green stone pin
either to Mrs. Mitchell or her maid.
I don't know which" Miss Richman
added. She also said Nicholson gave
her check for $4,000 which had not
been paid. She explained that
Nicholson remained In the apartment
for three days, constantly calling for
whisky. He ate little.
'Mr. Nicholson was not held vfrtu-
ally a prisoner. He could have left
the apartment at any time. but was
unable to do no. He remained in bed
three days" declared the actress.

$1,000 ON STRIKE
AT COTTON MILLS
Nearly Whole of New England
Affected-Big Factories
Shut Down.
By the Aasocia ted Press.

By the Associated Press.
BOSTON. February 13.-Half Of the
100000 cotton mill operatives of New
England were on reduced wage scales
To-Day, and nearly one-quarter of
them, or between 10000 and $4,000.
were on strike in protest. AS a result
many plants were forced to shut
down.
In New Hampshire. where the wage
cut and an increase in hours from
forty-eight to fifty-four weekly was
statewide, the strikes we-e almost
equally general. The big plant of the
Amoskeag mills at Manchester, the
largest cotton mill in the world, and
the Nashua and Jackson mills at
Nashua were among the several that
had to shut down.
Only Few Remain.
There. as at other plants, the strike
ORDERS were carried out by all but q
Few OF the workers. Some 10000 per
sens are employed in the cotton mills
OF New Hampshire, Of whom only q
Few hundreds remained At looms ana
benches today.
Lowell. Mass. was the other prin-
cipal center Of the fresh strikes, with
the Hamilton mills closed in the face
OF vote to strike by many of its
1.Soo workers. The Bay State cotton
mills there were operated with some
what reduced forces.
The situation in Rhode Island
where strikes began two weeks ago
was still developing today. The plant
of the Jenckes Spinning Company at
Pawtucket. which had been kept 60
ing Notwithstanding daily defections
of 100 to 200 persons. was obliged to
close when the strikers gained fur
ther additions from its workers. The
Jenckes mills employed 1000 opera
tives.
Many Out In Rhode Island.
In all. more than 10000 persons are
on strike or without work as a re.
! suit of strikes In Rhode Island, thirty
plants Of various textile processes be.
