AUDIENCE CAPTIVATED
BY PROGRAM OF MUSIC
New York Symphony Orchestra
Concludes Series Of Concerts at
Central High Auditorium.

Last night in the Central High School
auditorium the New York Symphony
Orchestra, under the inspiring leader
ship of Albert Coates. brought to a
brilliant conclusion the series OF evening
concerts arranged for by the Washing
ton Society of the Fine Arts.
Mr. Coates showed himself, as on his
previous visit, an excellent program
builder. and as before. his commanding
gestures dragged and coaxed out Of his
loyal instrumentalists the heart Of the
music set before them. Cigars or
chestra of an organ fugue In c
minor by Bach came first. The orches-
tration hardly suggested the organ nor
did the fugue suggest the orchestra
but Bach was himself q persistent
transcriber and would have raised no
objection. The result was an inspir-
ing bit of sturdy music. The Wagner
"Siegfried Idyl." which followed. brought
most of euphony. poetry and romance
to the program. and the "Cortege de
Noces." from Rimskykorsakofrs lie
Coz dor" added the sunny oriental and
half barbaric Splendor associated with
the Russian ballet spectacle and drama.
1t was so effective with the audience
that Mr. Coates cast tradition aside
and granted repitition.
The program concluded with as con-
vincing performance Of Tschaikowslsys
Fifth Symphony" as has been heard in
Washington, and then the audience took
matters into its hands and gave Mr..
Coates a farewell which must have
warmed his heart
Arts has made arrangements with the
New York Symphony Orchestra for a
series of five concerts next season,
three of which will be under the leader
snip Of Mr.. Damrosch and the last two
to be conducted by Mr.. Coates.

are four inches shorter and consider
ably lighter than the Krag-Jorgen-
sen rifles.

nounced that they have received a

which will be distributed to the ca
diets to replace the old model now in
use. Fifty new sabers are expected
