Tony Pastors Song.
1t Is Denied He Ever Sang Senti'
mental Ballads in Public.

To THE NEW York HERALD: Refer
ring to the old armchair controversy,
the song sung by Tony Pastor, Ned
Barry and many other comic, descrip-
tive and motto singers was Grand
mothers Old Armchair" 1 printed this
song i'm 1880. The other song is
sentimental ballad. "The Old Armchair"
words by Eliza Cook, music by Henry
Russell. have one of the original
copies. printed in London, with Harry
Russell's picture on it.
1 do not think my old friend Tony
Pastor ever tried to sing sentimental
song in public. His specially was such
songs as "Lah-de-D -Dah," "Oh. Fred, Tell
Them to Stop" "Just a Little" I'm
the Governors Only Son." Remember
You Have Children OF Your own"
MANY Can Always Help One'' and
"Whoa, Emma" FRANK HARDING.

Czarina just after RAsPuTIN was
killed, M. GILIIARD says: Her ag-
onized features betrayed In spite
of all her efforts how terribly she
had suffered. He who alone could
save her son had been slain; any
misfortune, any catastrophe was now
possible"
On the day the Gear sent to the
President OF the Duma a telegram
telling OF his intention to abdicate
in favor of his SON he called in Pro-
fessor FIoDoRoF and asked him If the
boys malady was incurable. The
professor appreciated the motive back
of the inquiry and replied that "sci.
ence teaches that the disease is in.
durable, and while those afflicted with
It sometimes live to an advanced age,
yet ALEXIS NIcoLAIEvITcH is at the
mercy of any accident" The Czar
hung his head and murmured sadly:
"If he can never serve his country as
I should like him to, we have the
right to keep him ourselves" He
then abdicated in favor of his
brother MICHAEL.
The peculiarly trying mission of
telling the Czarevitch of his fathers
abdication fell to M. GILLIARD. He
records this conversation.
"'You know your father does not
want to be Gear any more, ALIENS
NfcoLAIEv1TcH.' He looked at me In
astonishment, trying to read in my
face what had happened.
.''What! why?'
"'He is very tired and has had
lot of trouble lately
"'Oh, yes Mother told me they
stopped his train when he wanted to
come here But won't papa be Car
again afterward? But who's going
to be Gear. thenr
now.'
"Not a word about himself. Not
single alluson to his right as heir.
He was very red and agitated.
There was a silence. and then he
said
"'But II there isn't Car, who's
going to govern Russian"
After his dethronement the Car
scarcely spoke Of his own position
and never complained Of the treat
ment he received; this was true also
OF the Czarina, though once, M. GIL
LARD says, he noticed that she
flushed when KERENsKY addressed
her as the former Czarina." M. Gil
LIZARD has undoubtedly written with
deep affection for the imperial fam
lily. To him it was family of which
the father and mother appeared low
ing and anxious parents and one of
which all the members were refined
by suffering and had their last days of
trial lightened by "a deepening fam
lily affection and religious devotion"
His book will be valuable to future
historians because he saw many
things which few other persons saw,
and realizing their value he wrote
them feelingly and honestly.

Old New York Churches.
Names by Which They Were Famil-
iarIy known in Former Days.

To The NEW York HERALD: Nick
names were applied to most of the
churches in old New York.
The Collegiate Church at Fifth ave-
nue. and Twenty-ninth street was the
Holy Shanghai 'becadse. of the cock
perched upon the, spire. The Bedford
Street Methodist + Church. "Johnnie
CoolNman's." was spoken of as the Eel
Pot because Of the frequent revivals
held there.
The first edflce of the younger Tyng's
church, Holy Trinity, at Forty-second
street and Madison avenue, was called
the Holy Mud Turtle because Of Its
squat appearance. The later edihce was
known as the Holy Oil Cloth because Of
the color designs of the brick walls.
The Church of the Heavenly Rest on
Fifth avenue was the Church Of the
Broken Vows because Of the breaking
of the marriage engagement Of one of
the clergy.
The Unitarian Church at Fourth ave-
nue. and Twentieth street. DR.. Bellowss,
was the Beefsteak Church because of
the use by the architect of white mar
bic and Philadelphia red brick.
In the case of the Church of Saint
John the Evangelist at Hammond street
now West Eleventh street, and waver-
ley place, there was no irreverence in
the name of the Wainwright 4.-emorial.
1t was customary to apL3y the name
Of the minister to a church rather than
its corporate designation. The Madison
Square Presbyterian Church was DR..
Adams's Church. The Dutch Reformed
Church. facing Washington Parade
Ground. was DR.. Hutton's Church. The
Holy Comforter. at Sixth avenue and
Twentieth street. was Dr. Muhlenberg's
Church. A. w. EARLE.

Chicago Opera Company Sings Tristan
Only Fair Performance of Wagner's Music Drama
Given at the Manhattan.

Mr. Bonnet. who is an artist of the first
rank.
For those who seldom hear Bach's
organ works except in transcriptions for
the piano Mr.. Bonnet's rectals doubtless
come as a revelation. The grandeur Of
Bachs organ style is almost entirely
obscured in the piano arrangements. and
no player surpasses Mr.. Bonnet in the
ability to perform Bach's music In the
fulness of it's splendor. For those who
are acquainted with organ technic there
is never ending pleasure in the skill
of Mr. Bonnets touch. Perhaps it's most
captivating feature is the clear and
delicate staccato which he employs and
to which he brings bewildering range
Of changeful tints by his mastery of
registration. His recital was quite up
to his highest standard and gave satis-
faction to considerable audience.

The Soldier Bonus.

Why should our overseas soldiers
ask the Government to pay them a
bonus?
The American Government cannot
well go too far in caring for our dis
abled soldiers, the sick, the crippled
and the incapacitated. The heart OF
America goes out to all these and
demands succor and the most humane
solicitude and care for them.
But a horizontal bonus to all SOL
diers. sick or well, rich or poor, is
wholly another matter. 1t cannot be
justified because it is not sound, can
not be justified because it is not
right. 1t not only would put tax
on the already overtaxed people Of
the country but worse would rob our
soldiers of the spirit of patriotism
the American people now see in
them.
The price of citizenship to the
young man is the protection of his
country. Soldering is his job. 1t
is not the job of his mother, his
father or his sister Soldering is
the job of the young man, and in
this capacity he has play for the
patriotism that is his birthright and
that justifies his citizenship.
Accepting a bonus for doing his
duty, for paying the price of citizen
ship to his country through service
for his country, becomes him as
poorly as it would become the man
Of dignity, with an appreciation of
the fitness of things, to accept tip
tossed to him.
Already the country is coming to
realize what horizontal bonus would
mean to the dignity and patriotism of
its soldiers. Already the country is
coming to realize what calamity
it would be for the Government,
staggering as it is under a war in
debtedness OF twenty-four billions of
dollars, including our loans abroad,
to be forced to make n bonus pay
ment of five billions of dollars.
Already the country is stunned at
the realization of the colossal meas
ure of it's obligations, it's specific
obligations to disabled soldiers, now
reaching an outgo of four hundred
and fifty million dollars year; its
obligations in the way Of century
of soldier pensions and with the un-
told years of interest ahead of us on
our aggregate debt, in the reduction
of which we are scarcely making
dent.
Secretary MELLON has got to find
six and one-half billions OF dollars
to meet maturing obligations within
the next sixteen months. This is for
Victory Loan bonds, for War Saving
certificates and short term notes. If
the present holders of these Govern
ment obligations are willing to take
new issues to replace those maturing,
the Government can mount this
formidable hurdle with little dis
turbance; if the present holders re-
fuse to do this where will the Gov
ernment get the cash?
But if in addition Secretary
MELLON is called upon suddenly to
dig up enormous bonus payments,
what then? II the bonus bill goes
through and it fixes burden on the
country Of, say, five billion dollars
more, this five billion dollars more
will mount to twenty-five billion
dollars with interest before the last
cent of 1t is paid off. It is either this
or squeeze it out of the people in
additional taxes.

The Pearl.

Beneath the browsing tide,
Within his house of shell,
An oyster had a wound
And mended 1t right well.
Across a mighty land
There swept the Terror's breath;
An Empress lost her throne
And came to wounds and death
Now half across the world
In fashions giddy whirl.
Unscathed of wound or pain

.ENGEL's VIOLIN RECITAL.

Gabriel Engel gave his second violin
recital in Aeolian Hall last night. He
played Tartini's G minor sonata. Bruch's
G minor concerto and a Negro Spirit
ual," by himself. He seems to be in
earnest in his endeavors to advance in
his art. He played with musical temper
ament and good tone and gave evident
pleasure to his large audience.

The Near East Conference.

The conference of the Foreign Min
listers Of three allied nations, Great
Britain, France and Italy, for the
discussion Of the Near East question,
which was arranged some time ago
to be held in Paris to-day, has been
son assigned for this postponement
is the same as that offered when the
dates for other meetings on the same
subject were changed-time was
needed for consideration of the Ques-
tion and the formulation of some
definite policy.
There is no doubt that time is
needed for the study of the present
Near East question. The politics and
diplomacy which always involved a
consideration of the Near East have
to great extent passed; Russia and
Austria are no longer rivals for
power there; the Balkans as impor-
tant factors have passed and Europe
has taken a new attitude regarding
Constantinople and the Turkish
straits. Even the policies Of the AL
lies framed after the world war have
undergone complete change and the
treaty of Sevres has apparently no
value in the present situation. The
important considerations now are
Asia Minor and the complications
which have been brought about by
the growth of the Turkish National
lists and the strength shown by
MUsTAPIIA KEMAL Pasha.
Despite the conflicting reports about
KEMAL's power the fact remains that
he was able to unite all the Anato-
liam and eastern Turkish factions in
opposition to an invasion Of Asia
Minor. This became evident when he
stopped the advance Of CONSTANTINE
and twice drove the Greek army
back to the Egean coast shattered
force He has, moreover, shown con-
siderable diplomatic skill by arrang-
ing treaty with France which had
the effect of aligning her as the
friend of the Nationalists and at the
same time handling the Moscow So
Wet Government 30 skillfully as to
restrain 1t from carrying on propa-
ganda in Anatolia or attempting a
military invasion of the Transcau-
casian region.
While it is true that the Angora
Government is the only one within
the limits of the former Ottoman
Empire in which the Turks show
any degree of confidence, it is
question if it can yet be considered
government established upon
permanent basis. The Sultan OF
Turkey has still a strong card; he is
the Caliph to a great majority of the
Mohammedans and he is still re-
spected as the head of Islam by the
Moslems of the East. KEMAL found
limit to his power when he at
tempted to transfer from CONSTANT
nople to Angora the sacred Offices
which attach to the person of the
Sultan. The whole of Islam arose i'll
opposition to him.
The Allies have b. gre them as the
very preliminaries OF a settlement the
readjustment of the relations between
the Sultan and MUsTAPHA KEMAL IL
there is to be peace in Turkey. They
must be able to offer to KEMAL as a
joint proposal terms which he can
accept. They have, too. to receive
from both him and the Sultan guar
antee of the security Of the Christian
population. Besides this, there re-
mains the still more important con.
sideration that these points must be
attained by these three Powers with
out arousing the enmity of Moslem
populations over which they are now

Insurance Carried On County Property
 Is Insufficient

Insurance carried on county prop erty is insufficient, according to re- port made to the board of revenue yesterday by Thomas E. Huey. who had been designated by the board to investigate the matter. His --e- port Is based on figures supplied by George r. wheelock, architect, as to the present value of county build ings.
 The courthouse is valued at s4Ss,- 900, while the insurance carried on it is only s150.000. MT. Huey stateI, Value of the Hillman hospital is placed at s1S3.983. and the insurance on it is $75,0O0. The almshouse IS valued at $5s,0o0 and the insurance is only s12,S00.
 As insurance on this character cf buildings may be carried up to the total value, Mir. Huey declared that the county was taking a great risk in not carrying more insurance. de was instructed to determine the cost of sufficient insurance to cover the county property.

Community Club Has
 Business Session at
 Luncheon on Friday

By vote of 54 to 14 the Community club, at its weekly luncheon yester- day, adopted an amendment to it's constitution, raising annual dues, for the purpose of maintaining the Com- munity club camp on the Warrior river, which was established several months ago.
 The amendment was submitted to the club by William Wilkerson, chair man of the camp government and maintenance committee, and a motion to pass same was made by Evans Dunn. Practically the entire meeting hour was consumed with discussions on this question. The principal speech of the meeting was made by w. H. Saddler, Jr.. who spoke in favor of the amendment. Announce ment was made at this time that the Community club camp on the Warrior was one of the prettiest as well as most convenient camps on the river, and one which every club member may boast. A large number of mem bers were present on this occasion and much enthusiasm demonstrated.
