They have taken a house at Queen Lane Manor, nnd are stay ing with the William Wardens, Agnes's parents, until they have the houie fixed up to suit them. Judging from the ! wonderful wedding presents Agnes re ceived, I should not think they would have to get much to furnish the house. It seemed to me as if she had every thing needed for a house but the kitchen stove, and that usually comes with a bouse, so it won't be long before that little homo is ready. NANCY. WYNNE.

Schoenhut Company, locnl toy manu facturers, nccording to report. Miss Dorfner holds more swimming records than anjone in America. Dur ing a recent tour of the l'ncinc coasi she won many honois. At her home at 1324 Girard avenue jesterday afternoon Miss Dorfner said she had intended keeping her betrothal a secret for several dajs et as she wanted to announce her engagement to all her friends simultaneously I doii t know how the news lenkeu out." said Miss Dorfner vesterday with a smile. We had intended to keep the secret until some time next week. However, I suppose it is one of the dis advantages of appearing frequently be fore the public. I suppose we shall have to grin and bear a somwhat pre mature announcement. As a prospective swimming champion Miss Dorfner was first trained by one of England's foremost swimmers. Later she was coached by N'oah Marks, a swimming instructor of this city. A few years later, however, she began her aquatic career. As a result of her numerous victories, she is acknowledged the women's champion sprint bwimmer of America. At the request of Lieutenant Com mander F. R. Payne. Miss Dorfner will give an exhibition at the Navy Relief Fete tomorrow nt the Philadelphia Navy Yard. Miss Dorfner also will swim at the water carnival of the Riverton Yacht Club on. July 12 on the Delawnrc r'ner. Miss Dorfner holds the world's outdoor recflrds at 00. 100 and 200 yards, and members of the club assert she, is the fastest woman swimmer in the world. A brief illness recently forced Miss Dorfner to a temporary retirement. BROAD ST. THEATRE AND STENT0N SOLD Playhouse and Hotel Change Hands in Big Realty Deal The South Broad Street Theatre and the Hotel Stenton, at Broad and Spruce streets, have been sold by the Fox es tate to nn undisclosed purchaser.

'Ihe other three aie Now Workers, being ictor Herbert, Henry Hartley and William Arms Wisher Other American names on the program were Frank A'nn der Stuecken: who, in spite of his name, was born in Texns; V. Kolar, a member of Mr. Herbert s orchestra, who will become assistant conductor of the Detroit Orchestra next ear, and John Skilton. whose Indian Dances were given the first hearing in Philadelphia this jear by our own or chestra. These, with the exception of Mr. Kolar, were not present. First Time This Season Of the compositions of the three Philndelphinns, only that of Mr. Kindei was new, in the sense of not having been heard before this season. The setting of Kipling's "Hecessional bv Mr. Matthews and Doctor Tily's fine Tc Deum" having been produced both ) at the concert of the Straw bridge & Clothier Chorus nt the Academy of Music and at the Diocesan Victory Festival a week or two ago. Both of these excellent compositions were gi en fine productions yesterday, the dim us sinirinir the narts. now more familiar to them bj reason of several pei- formnnces, with more authority and certainty, and the orchestra pla.wng wmi ndmirable restraint. Mr. Kinder s com position "Oh, Let the Nations He Glad" Is in lather strict church sole, with good melodic invention and part writing, although he does not take ad vantage of the full possibilities of the orchestra in the accompaniment. Herbert's Work Of the New York composers, Mr. Herbert was represented by several works, all of which have been heard here before except two short orchestral nnmhura. "Indian Summer" and Dance of the Fairies." Both are iu Mr. Herbert's usual tuneful and grace ful style, and, of course, orchestrated with great skill and knowledge of Milucs. The principal novelty of the day was Henry Hadley' "The Xevv Karth" for chorus solo voices and orchestra. It is the first time that it has been pio duced, and, Mr. Hadley told the writer, the first time that he has heaid the work. It is nn elaborate setting of the poem of Louise Ayrcs Garnett, and is a beautiful and significant work. Mr. Hadley's setting of the poem carries out admirably tne spine ot tne poem in everv detail, and the solo voi.es and chorus are used with tremendous effect. The harmony is conservative from the standpoint of "modernism," hut the work is unmistakably model u In thought and in feeling. In all it is a very acceptable contribution to American music literature. The scor ing is full, but at no time overpower ing, and great care has been used iu the selection of the proper instru mentation to show off both the solo voices and the chorus to the best ad vantage. Mr. Hadley in the work has never lost sight of the fact that ho was writing a vocal and not au orches tral 'composition. Credit to Chorus The Straw-bridge & Clothier Chorus ugain covered itself, with glory, giviug tho varied nnd difficult numbers with a precision and skill that reflects much credit both -upon themselves and upon Doctor Tily, who has brought them to cquld be secured. They were Inez Har bour, who in private life iu Mrs. Heury Hadley, soprano; Clara Yocum Joyce, contralto; Nicholas Douty, tenor, aud Horace Hood, baritone. In addition Dr. Howard S. Zulich sang the tenor solo iu Mr. Matthevvs's work and John Owens in the composition of Mr. Kin 'tier. AU did wcllr eepf dally i der. All did well,, especially Mr, Douty, BRIDE AND ATTENDANTS HADLEY SEES FINE j FUTURE FOR MUSIC1 Composer Talks Interestingly of Lines in Which American Art Will Develop Henry K. Hartley, one of the fore most of American composers, whose new ode for chorus, solo voices nnd orchestra entitled : :The New Earth" was givet) jesterday at Willow Grove .Park by the Straw bridge & Clothier chorus and tho Victor Herbert Orchestra, in nn in terview last evening predicted a great future for music in the 1'nited Stnes. Mr. Hartley was asked the direct question as to the direction in which he thought American music, both of the present nnd of the future, inclines most, whether in the line of opera, as in the case of Italy, or in the line ot absolute music, ns in the case of Ger many. "That is very hard to say," re plied Mr. Hadley. "We are opera mad, if I may use so strong a term, its is shown by tho lepeated endeavors of our composers .to produce a really great American opern ; but our musical tiend is not cxclushcly in this direc tion. We Are Symphony Mad "When you see the great and con stantly increasing number ot symphony oichestras that aro springing up all over the country almost daily, jou might saj that we are symphony mad as well. "Another very encouraging fea ture that I have noticed is uNo the stronc inclination of our people for chamber music, and this, too, is a most healthful sign." Mr. Hartley spoke in high terms of i tho Straw bridge & I Intluer Uwrus. which he said had only had the paits of "The New Earth" for about three weeks and had had onlj one lehearsnl with him. The work is by no means an easy one rimer n.r inr minus, ym ists or orchestra, and jet a surprisinglj tine rendition was given. The composer ..a mi.li nf ,1,A inill. fnf tlllU VtClllF . n.

Asked about his new opera "Cleo patra," which will be given bv the Metropolitan Opera Company during the coming season, Mr. Hadley was not disposed to talk much about the music of the work, but spoke of the elaborate scenic settings which are being pre pared and which he said will be among the greatest iiuugs iu mm nur ihi even the Metropolitan has ever produced The opera will be produced upon a mag uiiiccut scale. "The. New Larth" he referred to as an ode for chorus solo voices and or chestra. He said he was well satis fied with the general effect, as he was able to hear it from the conductor's stand, and was more than pleased with the rendition which the. local chorus aud the orchestra gave. It was the first time that he ever heard the complete work. i .OMV unCDITAI C TO PI nQP ' ARMY HOSPIIALb IU ULUbt Nine Institutions for III to Be Aban doned Within Week In view of the decrease in the num ber of patients nt army hospitals, the War Department has announced the decision of the surgeon general to aban don nine hospitals, including that at Philadelphia, which will be closed about Julv 1.
