all the bass were hooked on the first

they heard of some small white perch
being landed in the river, but this re-
port could not be verified.
When the river clears it is safe to say
white perch will be in the waters around

Local Symphony.
Rose hampton,
Win Praise
BY RONALD THORNE

Three impressive features APP
pealed at yesterdays concert of
the National Symphony Orches-
ira at Constitution Hall to a
large audience which included
Mrs. Roosevelt and y group of
friends.
First, the local debut of Miss
Rose hampton, contralto of the
Metropolitan Opera, was an
event Of considerable interest.
Second, the playing of Richard
StrauS' "RoSenkavalier" waltzes,
favorite selections with local au-
diences, was much enjoyed.
But the high spot of the pro-
gram, probably, was the splen-
didly spirited rendition DR.. Hans
Kinder and his associates pre-
Sented of Tschaikowsky's SYM
phonic poem, Francesca da Ri
MIMI" work not heard here in
some time and one which merits
4ICQuS11G duOlClO11o.
Kindler's interest in Tschai-
kowsky j. no secret to symphony
audiences in washington, and
as usual with works Of this
master, he conducted without a
score. Francesca da Riminl'
abounds in color and impressive
perturbation, and its full value
we're brought out in yesterdays
splendid performance.
The program opened with a
ballet suite by Gretry, arranged
by Motif, whose arrangement of
a Gluck ballet suite was played
by DR.. Kinder last season and
will be played next Tuesday by
DR.. StokoWski. The suite, from
"Cephale et Procris," included
three numbers, "Tambourin,
"Menuetto," and "Gigue," a
pleasing overture.
Miss hampton is charming, and
captivated yesterdays audience.
She sang an aria from Rossini's
"Cenerentola," and later in the
program an air from Debussy's
'L'Enfant Prologue"
Debussy, in a transcription by
Ravel of piano composition,
"Sarabande," was also repre-
Sented in the orchestral pro-
gram. The "Rosenkavalier"
waltzes completed the concert.

Symphony

Conductor Hans hlnoler ano
his National Symphony Orchestra
have played a sufficient number
Of concerts this season to indicate
that Washington's reception for
the orchestra this year, according
to c. c. Capped, manager Of the
orchestra, is most encouraging.
So far, Kinder has presented
six concerts at Constitution Hall
and three concerts in Central
High School. The last concert
Of the year 1888 was given yes
terday. The next one will be in
1884, en- January z.
Mr.. Capped announced today
that figures kept at the orches-
tra's office show that attendance
at these concerts given so far
show an average increase over
the same number of concerts last
year by a fraction over is per
cent. He said:
"ThiS is certainly an evil
dence of a steady and healthy
incl ease in interest in the Or
cheStra among the people Of
Washington. No extraordinary
means have been used to cause
this gain, except the constant
effort to play the finest music
possible, in the finest way pos
Sible. I think it shows that the
work of DIR. Kinder, to build
the National Symphony into
an orchestra second to none, is
being appreciated and endorsed
by everyone interested either in
music or in the Capital"
The second half of the season
will bring Ossip Gabrilowitsch, be.

JURY FREES CURTIS
ON MURDER CHARGE
Self Defense Pl e a
Wins Verdict

One Of the interesting criminal
cases tried in the local courts last
week, was that Of William Curtis,
of 8 Mile Road, who was arraign-
ed in Judge Boyne's Court, Mon
day, May l5, charged with the
murder of Raymond Webb, who
died in the Radford Branch of Re-
ceiving Hospital, Apri rs, from
the effects of a gunshot wound
inflicted by Curtis, April %.
The trial which began May Is,
lasted three days, 26 witnesses
having been sworn by the Prose-
cution.
On the jury, there were two
colored women, six white women,
and four white men.
Robert Willis, attorney for the
defendant, put up plea Of self
defense, charging upon the prin-
ciples that a mans house is his
castle, that his wife to him is
sacred, and that when the hus-
band order an intruder from the
premesis and from intermeddling
with his family affairs, that all
the powers on earth should re-
spect that request and command.
He argued that the husband had
"A right To enforce this command.
even to the taking Of life of hui
man being. The unwritten law
played an important part in this
defense.
Judge Boyne, before whom the
case was tried, gave fair and
instruction TO the jury.
The masterful handling of the
case by Attorney Willis resulted
in verdict Of not guilty.
