BRAHMS SCORE
IS SYMPHONIC
DELIGHT
N. Y. Orchestra, Under Dam
rosch, Superb in Concerto,
saImond Reigns With Cello
By JESSIE MCBRIDE.

The big event OF the New York
Symphony Orchestra concert at
Polls yesterday afternoon, Walter
Damrosch, conducting, was the ex-
Quisite Brahma double concerto, for
violin, viooncello and orchestra,
with those two fine artists, Paul
Kochansli, violinist, and Felix Sal
mcnd, cellist, as the soloists.
1t was an instance Of Brahms
wedding the east and the west in a
rich and beautiful score that was
new to us. Austere 1t was and
noble, almost in the spirit Of the
Indian Of our land. The sub-divis-
ions were not given on the pro-
gram, but there were three highly
distinctive movements, q gorgeously
colored fOlk-song type between two
sections Of tremendous sweep.
Brahms must have loved his
cello. To Felix SalnOnd and his
rare artistry, the first solo position
must be given. Really the score
was his! The two instruments COM
plemented each other exquisitely.
There was one running passags
from violin to cello that brought q
little gasp over its perfection. The
cello love song came out Of the
Eeart, so vibrant 1t was, and the
tone qualities were one long sue
cession Of mellow and beautiful
sounds.
Superb Ensemble Note.
Mr.. Kochansl1i's harmonics were
exquisite. From cello to violin
arpeggios interlaced rarely. while
the orchestra rose to a climax as
great as Wagner's ride a festal
IN the finale was rich in substance
and superbly given. 1t was true
Brahms, the cello domination stress
ing his, love for the inner voices.
with virtuosity in double stops for
both instruments that were thrilling.
The Rimsky-Korsakoff Caprice
Espagnol." the five subdivisions
also remaining nameless, was a
gripping thing Of splendor in tone.
We need to know that the concert
master, whose beautiful cadenza
was so finely wrought, was Mischa

President Comments
Upon Scholarship of
The Dead Statesman

Senator Henry Cabot Lodge has
been zone Of the great men of our
time." President Coolidge said today
in formal statement commenting
on the death of the distinguished
Massachusetts, statesman.
The Presidents statement follows:
Senator Lodge was a prominent
figure in Massachusetts before
knew anything about the public at
fairs of that Commonwealth. For
long time he has been our senior
Senator. He was the floor leader
of the Senate. This is not the &C.
casion to undertake to review the
positions he has filled and the work
he has done. 1t is enough now to
recall that he has been one of the
great men Of our time. He had
wide scholarship and wonderful ia
cility of expression. His Influence
has been world wide. A large col.
lection of his writings and speeches
are left to us which will be not
only of historical interest but of
permanent literary value. Full of
years bearing the honors that have
never ceased to be bestowed in in
creasing number he has been gath
cred to his fathers"

EVANGELIST SCORES
SISSIES AND ELAPPERS

A revival was opened last night
by the Reverend Burke Culpepper,
of Memphis, Tenn. in the Mount
Vernon Place Methodist Episcopal
Church South. last night.
"Sissies," bobbed-hair flappers,
Modernism and jazz all were flayed
by the evangelist as evils Of the
age that Christians must organize
to fight. Doctor Culpepper con-
trasted the bobbed-hair girl with
the type Of woman that went to
France to nurse the wounded dur
ing the war and with those who
are devoting their lives to the
MANNED and disabled.

That is one Of the few unwritten
bits of history about two Of the
foremost scholars that ever en-.
gagged in popular politics.
1t is somewhat ironical that they
both died in the waning days Of their
influence, when new and strange
faces were appearing at the helms
of their respective parties, and that
they should die from the same NAL
ady--a stroke which brought partial
paralysis, and long periods OF I'M
consciousness at the end.
1t had been expected that the
President and Mrs. Coolidge and
most Of, the Cabinet would attend
the funeral services of Senator
Lodge at Nahant, but after reaching
Washington aboard the MayfIower
this morning, 1t was announced
that the President would not be
able to attend, and that Secretary
of War John w. Weeks would act
as the Executives representative.

many members of the Senate will
attend.

fall as the result Of forest fires is
heavier than in any other similar
period for the past several decades.
About 10000 acres of land have been
burned over the Blue Ridge range
during the past two weeks.
The heaviest single loss was in
the mountains in Virginia, near the
town of Neersville, where stretch
OF timberland ten miles in length
was burned over before it was finally
extinguished late Saturday night.
Reports from that district, as well
as from several points in the south
ern section of Washington county
where fires had been in progress
for several days state these sections
are clear of fires now.
Hunting Parties Feared.
Forestry wardens were somewhat
apprehensive with the hunting sea
son opening tomorrow. Many hunt.
ers are planning to take the field
despite the appeal made by Gov
ernor Richie for gunners to await
rain, which would make the noun
taina and fields less dangerous. A
number of hunting parties left this
city yesterday and today for the
mountains. where an abundance of
game is reported
State officers are still on duty
in the mountains on the Washing
ton Frederick county line, where
fires have been breaking out al
most daily. 1t is reported that
most of these fires are of incendiary
origin and started by persons who
are in the habit of burning off
large stretches of land to improve
the blackberry crop.
Deputy game Wardehs have been
ordered by District Deputy Warden
Albert CHAMPION, acting upon in
structions from State Game Warden
e. Lee LIE Compile, to go on duty to-
morrow at daybreak and arrest any
hunters caught violating the game
laws oA>for carelessness in throwing
aside lighted cigarettes or cigars or
building fires.
Hunters Are Warned.
Champion has issued warning
to hunters against smoking and
building fires with threats that the
full penalty Of the law will be i'm
posed. Hunters must wear their
hunting tags in full view on the,
backs of their coats. The game
wardens have been instructed to
cooperate with the forest wardens
in all parts of the country, particu-
larly in the wooded sections and
mountain districts, to guard against
fresh forest fires starting.
Owing to the fire menace. scores
Of farmers in this section have post
ed trespass signs around their farms
warning against hunting. The dan
ger from fires is aceentuated by a
drouth of eight weeks and the com
bustible condition of the grass in
the fields and underground in the
woodlands.
Officials of the Chesapeake and
Potomac Telephone Company have
offered the services of their men
to the State forest wardens to help
combat forest fires in the noun
tain districts. Included in the Of
fer are the forces at Hagerstown,

ASKS $150,000 FOR LIBEL,
Vanderbilt Interview Brings Suit
Against Magazine.

LOS ANGELES, Calf, July 16.-Capt
Edward J. Ralph, formerly of the
United States Army and aide to the
assistant secretary Of war at Wash
ington. D. c.. yesterday filed suit in
the federal court against the Curtis
Publishing Company Of Philadelphia,
asking $150,000 damages for alleged
libel based on an article published in
the Ladies' Home Journal for May,
1924.
The article referred to purporting to
be an interview with Cornelius VAN
derbilt ir- whose corporation pub
lished q tabloid newspaper, the
Daily News. in Los Angeles, and of
which Capt Ralph was ono of the
original directors
The purported interview detailed
Vanderbilt's efforts to start his paper
in the face OF q widespread con-
spiracy" and tho efforts Of treacher-
GUS executives within the organixa-
don.
The article stated that ''three Of the
executives were discharged simul-
taneously upon ample proof Of their
reachery."
Ralph, with two others, was asked
to resign from the corporation, but,
he declares. not for the reasons given
in the Ladies' Home Journal article.
which, he asserts, is untrue in almost
every particular.
