CHORAL SOCIETY
DELIGHTS 1000
AT CATHEDRAL
All Saints Day Marked
By German Requiem
BY WILLIAM NEWMAN

The Washington Choral Society
presented, as a part Of the cele-
bration Of All Saints Day, the
German Requiem" by Johannes
Brahms last night in the Wash
tngton Cathedral. More than
1000 lovers of great music, as
I many as the Cathedral will hold
N its present incompleted state,
attended.
It Is q fact, which was duly
noted in the printed program,
that this masterpiece had no sue
cess In Austria or Germany until
it was given in the Lutheran
Cathedral of Bremen. Like the
devotional music of Bach, it is
too intimate for the concert hall.
EXCELLENT ATMOSPHERE
1t has true ecclesiastical feeling,
despite its wide departures from
the ritual of the Latin or the
English mass. Writing in memory
OF his friend Robert Schumann,
and OF his mother, Brahms chose
his texts to suit his entirely per-
sonal feeling from the Old and
the New Testaments, an unortho-
dox procedure but amply justi-
lied by artistic results.
For 1t is a masterpiece and,
again quoting from the program
notes, Brahms used the word
German in the title merely to
o1tferentiate from the established
Latin text of the requiem, it being
his real purpose to write a human
fsquiem.
History repeated itself again
last night in that the beauty of
the cathedral together with its
seemingly perfect acoustics made
setting for this noble expression
OF sorrow and Of consolation many
times more fetting IN scene and
mood than any concert hall could
be so that the performance &C.
quired an atmosphere often de-
MED 1t.
UNUSUAL CHOIR
The Washington Choral Society
Is more than merely efficient. It
is an unusual choir. Though only
125 voices strong it produces q
masSed tone Of ample power and
of q quality that a larger group
would seek in vain. The perform
ance, in consequence, frequently
approached the effect of vocal
chamber music. It had hghtness
and freedom and a notable facility
in expressive contrast.
There is good balance in the
choir. The conductor, Louis
Potter, suffers from no painful
SreoccupationS on behalf of his
tenorS, who are able to take the
center of the choral stage and hold
1t with no fears for the upper
realms Of pitch where, in this
score, they so frequently are
obliged to Sojourn. The sopranos
are just as confident, If less
perfect. The altos are joy and
the BASES, a sonorouS foundation.
SOLOISTS ATTRACTIVE
The orchestra employed fell far
short Of the Brahms requirements,
numerically, the deficiency being
compensated in satisfying measure
by the organ, in this instance q
beautiful instrument.
The Soloists were attractive.
Ruby Potter delivered the soprano
aria-it more nearly resembles q
Iied-with a pleasing awareness
of its emotional and spiritual
implications.

Mrs Michael Phalen of East Dover street has gone to meet her maker. A short time after midnight last evening she began her journey to the purple fringe of eternity. Those who knew her will always remember
 her with gratitude They will not speak of her without the that her life was its own testimony more elOauent than words can frame. Long a member of st. Patricks Church, she loved its sanctuary. Here she gained vision that beyond mortal years and looked steadfastly upon the eternal The word most truly and fully characterizng her manner of life the one which in the Bible expresses the ultimate in Christian virtue faithful. In her home life as
 mother in duty friendship and business she was faith ful to degree surpassed by none and equaed by few May she rest in peace

TO FAITH

Here is my Faith the very life of me The tides of thought that gather where pray: The brotherhood above earth's strife and play: The burning passion where men wait to see. In dreams they feel the joy of love reborn; The pride and glory of their natal song: The consciousness that sits the right from wrong And brings them thirsting to tomorrow's morn. Omnipotence will wait for all who know, And gather wisdom for future age. What can men do but turn the pictured page, And seek the celansng waters where hopes grow. This s the vintage they cannot eyade- Lfes faith and tears wherever they are laid.

New Record For
 Superior Court Cases Apparent
Present Number of Pris- Oners Awaiting Trial
 Reaches IS

Something of a record in the number of persons bound over to superior court after hearings in the city court, has been established here since the first of the year, ac- cording to figures released by the States Attorneys office today.
 To date, 15 persons have been bound over to the April criminal term of superior court and a period of more than two months remains before the April term will open. If the bind-overs continue the states attorney will have an unusually large number of persons to prosecute in April. Only twenty cases made up the entire January criminal docket.
 Most seriously charged of the April bind-overs is Jerry Stewart, 26, colored, of IA Lafayette street who was accused in city court of the murder of John L. Clapp, 35, also colored. It is expected that the state will dismiss the charge of mur- der against Stewart and charge him with manslaughter instead. Charges against other bipd-overs range from theft to automobile homicide, and include illegal sale of liquor, receiving stolen goods, and others. 1t
 The number is expected to be diminished next week however, for 1t has been r1mored that six young men will be brought into trial on bench warrants. They are now i'll New Haven county jail where they were sent in lieu of $500 bonds when bound over in the city court on charges of breaking and enter ing, and receiving stolen goods. Four are local youths, the others are from Wassaic, N..

Staying at home. State Department records show that there were 39O437 American citizens living abroad on January I, 1886. There had been 4O9 3O6 the year before. The largest number were living in Canada and Newfoundland. Europes total had dropped from 193241 to a mere 94,263 The numbers had gained in Africa, Asia the Fiji and Society Islands, Australasia Mexico and Central America It is clear that, for reason another, more Americans are staying at home, for the gains in regions do not offset the big decline in others Perhaps this is because of and exchange rates in certain countries Or it may be that the auto traers and revived inter- est in domestic travel arc responsible.

She was whisked to Hollywood to become actress and her work with Eddie in Strike Me Pink combined acting with her dancing and singing Rita thought she had solved her problem in pictures the ickers permitted her free expression of acting, singing and dancing
 but alas Rita began to feel the urge for something else What was it that caused her remarkable dancing ability? Why her music of course her uncanny sense of rhythm that all important item in the make up of every good musician dancer or singer: La Rio decided to try her hand at music and overnight became the foremost female orchestra leader in which role she will be seen at Hamilton park tomorrow night.

Excited comment. . |. The two references to the FBI in this column recently certainly brought out the comments Not that they were intended for that. When picked up Courtney Riley COOper's New Bri- tain speech early this week thought the that you could flash kidnap to Washington and get the G.men hot the trail immediately would interest most readers. You call National 7117, which is the Kidnapping division of the Federal Bureau of Investi gation. (. A column reader called, however, Friday to state that she understood that the federal agents could not be called in kidnap until a week had elapsed. Under the federal Kidnapping law this true, but the law also says that if the Kidnapped per son is taken the state line, it immediately is federal ofense In all kdnap today it is always state in which the crime is committed, thus permit ting the Gmen to go right to work while the trail is hot.

Editor, Tall Tower Topics: May have few lines in your column to urge city fathers to consider the idea of having permanent Christmas tree the Green? New Haven is, believe going to do that, so that it won't be necessary to cut down fresh tree every year and set it up in it's Green. It isn't that the loss of the tree each Christmas is much, it's just the thought of having the tree each year Its development from fair size to full maturity as measured by the amount of decoration would be inter- esting to note. If conditions right Green for fir tree to flourish, I'd like to recommend plant ing this spring. Pertinex.
