lovely duet, THE Other Side OF the

Mrs. EN- ry accompanied the sing

Hampton Institute Choir
Gives Interesting Program.

Gives Interesting Program.
A SMALL but distinguished
~ audience greeted the Hamp-
"A ton Institute Choir last night
4 \ at Constitution Hall in re-
cital that was offered under
the auspices of the National Memo
rial Association.
OF particular interest. was this
concert since the Hampton singers
recently gave a similar program at
Carnegie Hall in New York, fresh
from European triumphs, proving
themselves to be among the more ia
nous of the choral units.
AS quoted in the program OF this
group the choir occupies a unique
place, not only in the life Of Hamp-
ton Institute, but also in the art
life of the United States. Its aim
is to preserve one Of the chief char
acteristics of Negro music, that OF
singing without music"
That all this was demonstrated at
last nights recital was more than
evident. The voices, divided fairly
evenly between the sexes, blended
admirably together and gave proof Of
some Of the most warmly endowed
singing of the season. Particularly
was this to be noted in Were You
There" which has been rendered
more than once during the past sea-
son-but which seemed to take on
fresh virtue and a certain quality Of
pathos which has rot been duph-
Gated heretofore.
Among the other selections which
attracted especial attention-and
there was as matter OF fact none
that didn't-this admirable group of
singers sang the way they do at
their evening chapel service, not only
Were You There" but Walk To-
gether, Children" and Fare You
Well" These Negro spirituals and
the ones that closed the program
we're necessarily among the most
striking to the ear, since the Hamp-
ton Choir has become famed
throughout the world for just this
sort Of thing. They we're, however,
splendid throughout, and more than
cordially received by an enthusiastic
audience. z. de s. MEllCHER.

EMANUEL ZETLIN played an in
n teresting and delightful program
Friday night at the washington
College Of Music.
He opened with the Shubert, all too
seldom played, Sometime OPP. 1877,
No. 3, in four movements. Mr.. zetltn
played this sonatine in almost Mo-
zartian style, followed by the
Larghetto of Weber's arranged by
Kreisler.
The "Chaconne" by Johann Sebas-
tan Bach was the opus magnum OF
the evening: in this work Mr.. Zetlh
proved himself q master, his Sweep
ing tone, perfect information and tue
real classic style betting Bach wa9
evident throughout.
A suite by Korngold, Much Ado
About Nothing" was the next num-
Der. which was indeed happy
choice. It was an interesting con-
trast to Bach. This suite Is written
in truly VienneSe style and Mr.. Zet-
lin played in his light, inimitable
manner. This was followed by two
and "Aria" of Schuman's arranged
Fanny Amstutz Roberts was a
splendid accompaniSt throughout.

Sticking To Business

One of the lessons which business men have
learned result of the experience Of the past two
years is that no business viii run itself. We think
Henry Ford was about right when he said the other
day that Of the principal causes Of the business
slump was that TOO many business men made specu:
lating their business and left the management of
their real business to their employees.
We have never seen business yet that you'd
run for any considerable length of time without
the personal attention Of the man men whose mon
ey is invested III it. The boss take vacation for
while, when things are running smoothly, and his
business will go ahead On momentum til competition
gets too strong collections begin to fall off But
whether it is a big automobile business like Henry
Fords, ordinary country store the only person
who can make the decisions wAich have to be made
in crisis is the boss himself It he leaves that func
ton to others he is heading for trouble.
We know Of many business men who thought
that because they had got business well established
and earning good income they could treat it as a
gold mine, continuing take money out without put
ting any effort thought in. We know man who
tried to a newspaper that way He is not in
the newspaper business any more.
The only people who have any right to speculate,
as we see it, are the ones upon whose intelligence
and business experience nobody is dependent.

LOS ANGELES, Nov. 3.-The
trend of the cattle market clearly
indicates that despite slow bus ness
conditions, there are still a great
many people who want and are able
to pay for good meat. There ap-
pears to be a greater quantity of
common and half-fat cattle than
can readily be absorbed through re-
tail channels, yet at all Of the live
stock markets, receipts of good and
highest prices in many months. For
example, on the Chicago market,
prime, well-bred steers sold as high
as S11.25 a hundredweight, and at
all middle western markets, choice
grain-fed steers are moving active
ly at $9.O5 to $1O.5O and even higher.
IN the face of high prices for
choice beeves, the general run of
common to medium and half-fat
steers are very slow to sell at S. 00
to $3.50. Thus there is a premium
on more than cents a pound on
choice steers at the middle western
markets, with very sat t-sfactory
premium on the Pacific Coast.
This seems like a very apt ar
gument in the favor Of better breed
