A LARGE AUDIEHCE GREETS ORCHESTRA; SPLENDID PROGRAM

Second of Series of Concerts by' Richmond's Famous Musical Organization a Great Success. (Continued from Page One.) of colorful score It possessing that degree of dazzling color called in the ' rt of painting "hot" for it should be remembered that "Carmen" treats of Material passions, of violent, uncurbed and 'primal animal emotions that neither the story as originally written by the French novelist, Merimee. nor that Included in Bizet's score is either mystic or symbolic. That Bizet comprehended this and that It was, in short, his Inspiration, is the explanation of the popularity and appeal of the opera's core. There are no anachronisms between the story and Us musical interpretation. Mr. Karhart's reading was tempered by these considerations of origin and motif and the orchestra's interpretation was, therefore, convincing and realistic. Ths Colder Passion. Admirably Juxtaposed to the sensuous Bizet music an exposition of the iflnllnna( flmith nf t hit Invou anrl liates of the Latin races was the SStilte from Greig, symbolizing the colder passion of the North, but its greater emotional depth. This was Greig, however in his lighter musical manifestation, displaying 1 (hat exquisite fragrance, if it can so be put, and rather honeyed romantW cism, tinged with the inevitable melancholy of the Scandinavian, which constitutes Grelg's more obvious appeal this being In greater evidenre in the second movement introduced by the timpani, the basses and the cellos, the strings carrying the melody, the Smoothness and flexibility of the String!) being admirable especially in the delicate pianissimo. The brasses Introduced the impressive third and last movement, "March of Homage," With the violins carrying the melody. In this number the achievements of the orchestra were heard to superior ' advantage, since both in pianissimo and fortissimo the effects were slight, delicate and requiring much dextrous handling of the instruments and a constant attention to the ensemble. And it is In the ensemble that the orchestra shows marked advance , that French phrase used sometimes lti combination sometimes alone and 'trr which there is no nearer English equivalent than the awkward "altogether" the smoothness of Its nrst , and second violins being especially noticeable, although In Its more comprehensive Inclusion and the final test of orchestral efficiency that of the blending of all the instruments into one tonal whole it is making rapid progress. The more canny appreciation of the liner harmonic nuances was also noticeable. Hubert Smith Soloist. ; Mr. Hubert Smith, the young and talented player of the violoncello who came down from Chicago, where he is . ainaying unuer oinj 01 we masters 01 the instrument in the Thomas orchestra, was the soloist for the evening and was accorded overwhelming applafse after the admirable presentation of an arrangement from "Tannha user," for the cello. ' The cello, the most appealing of the cringed Instruments in solo has, perhaps, less adaptive music written for It. than any other, but in a composition ot the class as that from the Wagnertan opera it Is heard with tremendous impressiveness. , tr. Smith interpreted with much musical eclat and astonishing musical (iiuni icut ivr mu uiaivui in uib vara hit purely technical achievements as la, his harmonics, aa a certain manipulation of the strings in what might be . called the cello's "upper register" is termed, which were beautifully clear. and In his admirably sustained higher tones. fa ne purity ana nenness or nis tonai quality were heard to best advantage In the familiar "Oh, Thou BubUme, Sweet Evening Star," a fine Interpretation of a bit of descriptive music, of t-hich Wagner Is the great master.

Its Changes In Numbers Sinee It Was First Organized. As originally made op the supreme court consisted of a chief Justice and five associate justices. In 1807 a sixth associate was added when a new district bad been created to take in the new western territory comprising the states of Ohio, Tennessee and Kentucky. In 1837 the expansion of the nation westward again, called for an Increase in the court, .and two more associate Justices were added. In 1863 a ninth associate justice was needed, but live years later, when approaching vacancies made it likely that President Andrew Johnson might have the appoiutment of the new members, congress, then In open antagonism to the chief executive, reduced the number to seven, thus preventing him from making an appointment. This number two years later, after the Inauguration of President Grant, was increased to eight associate justices and a chief justice, and as then constituted the court has remained. The last alteration in the court was declared at the timo to be due "to political reasons as clearly as the reduction in 1868, as tbc addition of a new member made it possible for the court to reverse itself in the legal tender decisions. New York Post. A TOWER OF SKULLS. Grewseme Monument Erected by the Turks In Servia. A strange monument of modern barbarism still survives at Nisb. in southeast Servia. During the war of independence in 1800 the Servian garrison here exploded a powder magazine and perished therein rather than fall into the hands of the Turks. A battle had previously taken place, and the Turks commemorated their victory by erecting a rude tower, orauiented with the beads of their enemies. Old people will tell you that there were once 1,200 heads, but as the tower was never more than twenty-five feet high this is probably an exaggeration. Lamartine and other travelers relate that tbey saw balr still clinging to the skulls, which must have formed a grewsome spectacle. During many years visitors were in the habit of carrylug off skulls as souvenirs, but when Nish became Servian the remainder were taken away for decent burial, all save a few that were too deeply imbedded. In recent years the remains of the tower have been covered over with a roof to protect them against the elements, and tbey are regarded as a pious object of patriotic pilgrimage. Wide World Magazine.

THE DOCTOR HABIT. ' And How She Overcame It.

When well selected food has helped the honest physician place his patient in sturdy health and free from the "doctor habit" it is a source of satisfaction to aU parties. A Chicago woman says: "We have not had a doctor in the house during all the 5 years that we have been using Grape-Nuts food. Before we began, however, we had "the doctor habit" and scarcely a week went by without a call on our physician. . "When our youngest boy arrived, 5 years ago, I was very much run down and nervous, suffering from indigestion and almost continuous headaches. I was not able to attend to my ordinary domestic duties and was so nervous that I could scarcely control myself. Under advice I took to GrapeNuts. "I am now, and have been ever since we began to use Grape-Nuts food, able to do all my own work. The dyspepsia, headache, nervousness and rheumatism which used to drive me fairly wild, have entirely disappeared. "My husband finds that in the night work in which be is engaged, GrapeNuts food supplies him the most wholesome, strengthening and satisfying lunch he ever took with him."

My practice has Increased so much that I am forced to enlarge my, office to the extent of 3 more rooms. The reason for the increase is that Richmond people are every day bringing up their friends to consult me and want an accurate diagnosis. My old patients bring me new ones continually and the reason they, do it iC because they are satisfied. I don't just feel your pulse, look at your tongue, and tell you tocome back in a few days if you don't get better. But I make a thorough examination, find out the real cause of your trouble, the underlying principle and then treat it. Your case will not'be accepted unless you can be absolutely cured because I can't afford to experiment. If you are discouraged, disgusted, tired out all the) time, I will cure you , . 6 ., You can come to me in confidence and be sure that your case will be shown just as much attention as if you were the only patient I had. ? ' - My offices are crowded every day with satisfied patients who are bringing , their friends up to what they term "an honest doctor. v v. f I HAVE A LADIES' PRIVATE RECEPTION ROOM, ALSO A GENERAL RECEPTION ROOM.

So you can come to me, resting assured that you will have a strictly confidential talk and I do not employ any assistants. Come and see me before it is too late.

Most of the children of the public schools have to drop their studies at fourteen or sixteen, in order to learn a trade; and Mrs. Berger believes that it should be made possible for them to complete later in life the education which early work prevented. Before her marriage, ahe taught in the Milwaukee schools, and Is, therefore, perfectly conversant with the matters in which imorovement is needed. Familr Magazine.
