CONCERT GREETED
BY LARGE AUDIENCE
National Symphony 0rches
ira Stirs Enthusiasm
of BaItimoreans.

The National Symphony Orchestra
was given an inspiring reception in Bal
timore last evening, where it appeared
ut the Lyric Theater, in the second con-
cert of the year in that city. The
theater, In which all the famous or
chestras of the country have appeared,
was filled with large and distinguished
audience that listened in rapt attention
and eagerly gave vent to the enthusiasm
which the fine playing of the orchestra
aroused. 1t was, indeed, fine playing
which the orchestra did last night,
standing out with unusual clearness in
the unfamiliar surroundings and in face
of an audience uninfluenced by any sem
tinental reasons for being enthusiastic
The orchestra met the test in glowing
fashion and its true metal shown out
with convincing power. 1t would be an
encouraging and gratifying experience
for Washingtonians to hear their orches-
ira in alien surroundings and see the
spontaneous response to its fine inter-
pretations.
Resources to Fore.
The program chosen brought all the
resources of the orchestra to the fore.
The technical demands were met by the
men with true artistry and they pro-
vided an excellent medium for the emo
ticlal reading which Dr. Kinder had SO
clearly in mind and heart The gain in
fe- nilitv which the seasons work has
developed was especially evident and
musical effects were accomplished with
splendidly controlled gradation of power.
The gain also in tonal quality, particu-
larly in the violin section, which has
gone on steadily throughout the concert
period, stood revealed to an astonish-
ing degree last evening. There was fine
ness as well as sorority and harmoni-
GUS blending of color.
Programs High Point.
The high point of the program was
the Cesar Frank sSymphony in D
Minor" which will be heard at today's
concert in Constitution Hall. This
magnificent work calls all the different
angles Ct the mu-icians' art into play
and it is in compositions of this charac- |
ter that the solid quality of the orches-
ira is shown. The overture to Weber's |
"Freischutz" opened the program and |
the delicate passages were admirably |
contrasted to the gayer forte mo-
ments. The entr'acte from Nous
sorgsky's "KhovanStchina" and the |
Hungarian Dances, Nos. and s." by |
Brahms, were played Immediately fcl- |
lowing the internission, and the pro-
gram concluded with the preludes to
Act III and Act I of Die Meister- |
singer"
DR.. Kindler's vivid Interpretation of |
these two numbers was of such great |
beauty that the final chord had not |
sounded when the audience broke forth |
into tumultuous applause. This con- |
tinued for many recalls, which DR.
Kinder acknowledged alone and with
the orchestra standing with him and
still the applause was unabated. No
finer proof could be had that the Ma
tional Symphony Orchestra has def |
nitely arrived" than this sincere
welcome accorded by another city.

Mountain had another CONFUSION yes

The convulsion was described as the
most violent since the mountain started
disintegrating several months ago.
DR.. w. Boyd Calkins, Durango high

more than 25,000,00o tons of surface
rock had been shattered and crashed
down the mountain side since early
morning.
Calkins said the earth being forced
up through the crevices undoubtedly
came from great depth, 1000 feet
or more. This, together with the sui
phur fumes the mountain emits at in
tervals, indicate, Calkins said, that the
the substrata under the region are in
