they had quarreled or that he had
been abusive toward her"

concerning his own financial status,
, the millions of his 22-year-old wife,
his romance and courtship and the
desire of both to have children.
The inquest was called i'll an ef-
fort to decide whether Mrs. David
sons death in the garage after she,
her husband and two guests had
returned from late party, was due
tc murder, accident or suicide.

argument over who would put the
car in the garage but that he was
deeply in love with his wife.

Beginning today, which is the

Of Susan B. Anthony, a por-
trait of Miss Anthony, painted
by Carl Gutherz, a Swiss artist,
in 1895, will be exhibited in the
Corcoran Art Galley until the
end of this month. This oil
painting was purchased by the
late Mrs. John B. Henderson
and presented to the gallery in

In this portrait Miss Anthony
wore her famous red shawl. The
three-volume biography of the
great reformer, written by Ida
Hustled Harper, records the fol-
lowing newspaper item printed
at the time when Miss Anthony
was at the height of her career:
"Spring 10 not heralded in
Washington by the approach of
the robin red-breast but by the
appearance of Miss AnthOny'S
red shawl"
The book also relates:
"At one session she was per-
Suaded to wear a handsome
white shawl and when she ap.
peared on the platform, the re-
pOrters Immediately sent her .

GIissondo Theme From "PuIcinella" Suite

given merely to show the range
Of a full glissando on the from
bone. Starting from the top or
first position, the slide is moved
out and back with a continuous
tone.
With the opening strains of the
Beethoven Symphony "Eroica, ,"
it was noticeable that the orches.
ira was on more familiar grounds
and responded to every whim Of
the conductor.
In the first movement was
heard the stirring battle calls Of
the horns, delineating the life
Of Beethoven's hero, Napolean
Bonaparte.
The second theme taking the
form of a funeral march has
long puzzled those seeking to in,
terpret the work. Possibly Beet
hoven expressed his feelings at
the thought of the oceans of
blood through which Napolean
waded to power.
No Encore
The third movement in scherzo
form seems to indicate the rest
and recreation of the hero and
his followers. The finale move.
ment seems to sing a mighty
hymn Of victory.
The audience recalled Otto
Klemperer to the platform many
times, but because Of the exhaust,
ing energy expended in directing
the great symphony, he did moi
respond with an encore.
Otto Klemperer possesses com.
manding appearance on the plat.
form and directs with great
energy and careful attention to
detail.

The Philadelphia Symphony Or
chestra under the direction of
Otto Kemperer gave q marvellous
rendition of Beethoven'S "Eroica"
Symphony last night in Constitu-
ton Hall.
Following the first number on
the program, the overture to "An-
acreon" by Cherubini. the re-
mainder of the first period was
devoted to- the novel "Pulctnella'
suite by Stravinsky.
This suite was played with a
reduced orchestra as the score
calls for a small orchestra with a
quintette of solo strings. Some Of
the movements seemed to be
played with a restraint from
which the conductor vainly at,
tempted to arouse the players.
1t seemed that the players were
not entirely in sympathy with
the modern treatment Of these
old themes. However, there was
a loosening up in the "Vivo"
movement when the trombone
awoke the echoes with a series
of gliSsando passages.
The opening gliSsando theme is
given above. The effect is pro-
duced by blowing while the slide
is in motion initiating a part Of
fire alarm call.
Brings Applause
This movement evoked a Spon-
taneouS burst of applause, whether
from the novelty of the glissando
or the comic comparison with the
remainder of the program, it was
hard to fathom.

BOILERS PERIL
: PUPILS LIVES,
BOARD TOLD

Charges that Superintendent of
Schools Frank w. Ballou has
"misrepresented" facts concerning
boilers in school heating plants,
and that the lives Of pupils are
being imperiled, were made be-
fore the Board Of Education last
night by officials of the Inter
national Union Of Operating
Engineers.
The union charges that the
school engineers are forced to
neglect the boilers to attend to
other duties imposed upon them,
and that while this danger was
pointed out to DR.. Ballou almost
two years ago, nothing has been
done to remedy the grave situa-
ton.
Danger Of Explosion
The boilers in a school have the
potential destructive force of more
than ton of dynamite, the union
engineers pointed out, and while
many of the boilers are rated at
low pressure, this does not remove
the danger of explosion.
The situation has developed
Unto a series of evasions of facts
which we fear is designed to mis-
lead the public into believing that
school steam boilers are properly
and safely operated, notwithstand.
ing conclusive evidence to the con.
trary," the union officials asserted.
DR.. Ballou is accused of evasion
in not giving the complete state
ment of Hugh P. Orem, District
director of inspection. Mr.. Orem
was quoted as warning that the
engineers must not leave the boil
ers unattended unless they are in
the care Of a competent person for
whose actions the engineer must
be held responsible.
BallOu Challenged
The union officials contend that
only a licensed engineer is com.
petent to take charge Of these
boilers, and asserted that under
the present Setup it is impossible
for the engineers to devote their
time to giving the boilers the
proper care. due to the stress OF
other work placed upon them.
DR.. Ballou was challenged to
make public the schedules of the
engineers, showing just what they
are required to do in addition to
tending the highly dangerous
boilers.
There is no safety device made
that will prevent an explosion il
the boilers are overheated through
neglect, the engineers charged.
