country since the joint visit of Eubenstein
and Wieniawski, which yet lingers in the
memories of the older generation. It is, to
car the least, extremely doubtful if the
present generation will have another such
opportunity.
The above cut of the great little pianist, is
a faithful copy of the recent photograph by
Barony, New rTork. It hardly does
justice to the leonine head or else D'Al
bert has changed considerably in the five
years since the writer used to hear him in
Berlin. The following biographical sketch
rests upon the authority of the management
of this tonr:
Eocene Francois Charles D'Albert was born
at Glasgow, in Scotland. April 10, 1864, and
will therefore be less than 25 years old when lie
visits America. His lather, Charles Louis Na
poleon D'Albert, was a son ot a captain of cav
alry in the French army, npon whose death the
motbet and son emigrated to England. Charles
D'Alb rt was a successful composer of dance
music, who married and settled in .England at
Newcastle-on-Tyne. Young D' Albert's genius
for music exhibited Itself at an early ace and
He was carefully tanght by his father. In 1S78
be obtained a free scholarship in the National
Training School. London, where he was taught
pianoforte by Ernest Paner.bannoay and coun
terpoint by Dr. Stainer organist of St. Paul's;
orchestration by Ebeueer Front, and composi
tion by Arthur Sullivan. On the recommenda
tion of the latter be obtained in 1S8L
the Mendelssohn scholarship, so that he could
po abroad for a year for additional studies. He
made rapid progress under his teachers in En
Eland, and composed an overture, which waa
performed at a students' concert in St. James
Hall, 1879; also an original pianoforte concerto
in A, at a Bichter concert in 1S8L and
Rubinstein's concerto in D minor, 1SS1 At
Bichter's invitation he wen' to Vienna, and
subsequently to Weimar, where he stndted
under Liszt, who called him the young Tausic,
in allusion to his extraordinary technique. His
overture "Hvperion" was played at a Alchter
concert in 1SSS, and a symphony in F, op. 4, in
1888. A string quartet of his was played at
Vienna last winter, and a dramatic overture at
the Tonkunstlerfest at Cologne, in 1SS7. He is
nowngaged in the composition of a grand
opera.
frtVon Bnlow has said: "There are but
three great pianists in the "world, Bubin
stein, myself and D'Albert; but the last is
yeyoung, and bids fair to surpass us all."
That was some time ago. and the then brill
iant promise has been amply fulfilled.
D'Albert stands to-day unquestionably the
best all round pianist alive.
.
Joachim might say if Ton Buelow would
Jend his tongue "There are but three
peat violinists in the world, myself, "Wil
helmj and Sarasate, but the last in his own
particular field can surpass us all."
Pablo Martin Meliton de Sarasate is a
bachelor, and was born in 1844 at Pampe
luna, Spain. He is rather small in figure,
but strikingly handsome in feature and well
posed in manner. He ajpeaks French,
Spanish and a little English, and has but
little to say of himself unless questioned.
Fablo de Saratate.
He ii Sarasate, the only, but he does
not seem to feel that he is the greatest
violinist since PaganmL When Barasate
was a young man be visited the United
States, and created no impression. Since
then he has won fame all through Europe.
His appearances are yet reckoned events of
prime importance even in those musical
centers where the world's greatest artists are
frequently heard. He plays a genuine Stra
divarius, the value of which cannot be
estimated. It is insured for 515,000, and Tie
never allows anyone else to touch it. As
tokens of his successes in all parts of the
civTliied world, Sarasate has received a
bewildering variety of decorations, orders,
medals, honorary professorates, etc. But
the artist honors them, not they the artist.

Besides commenting very pleasantly upon
the part taken by the various Pittsburg
ertUts'atUe State Music Teachers' Associa
tion, ,,the Philadelphia JfuxieoJ Journal
.v n '-'yus mr
(official journal) prints the following full
critique ution the playing of oar youngest
representative:
Among the many strangers attendlnc the
recent meetings of the Pennsylvania Stats
Music Teachers' Association was a roans girl
from Pittsburg, Miss Ethel Jonesj IS years old,
who Is a very promising musical talent. She
was accompanied by her teacher, Mr.
J. H. Gittings, who is an officer
of the association. Kiss Jones has made such
advancement in the art of pianoforte playing
that we may call her a youne -artist. Her
technique is already much advanced, and
speaks well for her tutor. Mr. Gittings,
under whose Instruction she has been
for the last four years, and he has
just cause to feel proud of her attain,
menta. Her artistic conception and expression
are even more developed, while her strength
of mind and grasping power of intricate
musical forms wenave seen excelled by one of
her ace. She played the Fugue In C minor
from Bach's Inventions, from memory, without
a single error, to the aeucnt oi me many teacn
era and musicians present at the reception
Friday night.
At a subsequent private rehearsal we had
the pleasure of hearing her play a song of
Mendelssohn's known by the name ot "Sympa
thy," in a manner that did credit to the title,
and which we appreciated the more because
her Interpretation was so pure and natural,
without the least sign of affectation; it was
a natural outDurst or youne renins.
This she followed with Mendelssohn's
Concerto In G minor, Mr. Gittings accompany
ing her with the orchestral part on a second
piano. In the finale he purposely hurried her
to. greater speed and force, but she kept
equally up, to the last, and without the slight
est evidence of flurriedness or excitement,
striking the last chord as deliberately as the
first, without an apparent sign of physical ex
haustion. She also played Schumann's novelette In F,
and Goddard's mazurka with a strength hardly
to be expected from a girl of her ace, and all
these compositions without the notes, showing
that her gifts were not merely imitations, but
of a higher order. Her manner was devoid of
all affectation, natural and child-like, yet not
in the least childish.
We predict for this young talent a brilliant
future, earnestly hoping that her health may
be preserved, and that in ber future progress
she may have as efficient directions and op
portunities as sne has thus tar en'oyeo.

"With reference to the shockingly bad
company sent over to produce Gilbert &
Sullivan's latest, The Dispatch has the
'following from London by Dunlap's Cable
Company:
It is reported here that D'Oyly Carte has re
ceived a cable from Mr. Palmer demanding
the discharge of most ot the "Gondoliers"
Company. Carte was seen to-night at the Sa
voy Hotel. He said there was no nse attempting
to disguise the fact of the failure and that
he was deeply mortified, bnt could not under
stand it at alL He had not cabled the order to
discharge the people objected to, but
had decided to sail for New York
with his wife, nee Miss Helen Lenoir,
and Sir Arthur Sullivan to Judge for them
selves. He retuses Mr. Palmers demand for
change of company till his arrival in America.
He considers the company a good one
in spite of Mr. Palmer's state
mentsbetter than the Mikado
Company
ot 'S5. Mr. Temfile
is the original
Dead Eye in "Pinafore." The other members
of the company bad been in the provinces for
years. They were rehearsed at the Savoy
i neater oyouiuvan ana tne stage manager,
not by Gilbert. He can only account
for the flatness of the performance by the
fatigue of a stormy voyage and demoralization
by the treatment received from the New York
press. Carte's manner suggested a strong feel
ing at the tendency to disparage English actors.
The departure of Sullivan and himself is a
secret in London.

Older concert goers will remember the
brilliant playing at Library Hall some 10 or
12 years ago of the pianist referred to in the
following London special, received per
Dunlap's Cable Company:
"A petition Ipr a pension to Mme. Arabella
Goddard, the well-known pianist, has Jnst been
refused by Parliament. At the same time W.
H. Smith refused this, he offered to appro

public subscription being raised. Miss Goddard

Mb. Nikibch'S programme for the twelfth
symphony concert. at Boston comprised these
three compositions: Borodin's first Symphony,
In E flat; Baint-Saen's concerto for violin, in B
minor, No, 8, op. 61, and Volkmann's festival
overtnr e in F, op. 6a All were novelties, the
Russian symphony receiving its first hearing in
America and gaining much praise. In this pro
gramme Mr. Niklsch swings quite to the oppo
site extreme from the conservative Teutonism
which has hitherto characterized his selections.
Last night's programme presented a new sym

Clark, well remembered. in Pittsburg.
Ik a recent criticism in tba Boston Home
Journal Mr. Hale writes apropos ot pianos in
large balls: "It Is an open question whether
our enormous balls and our grand pianos hays
not seriously affected the art of piano playing.
The piano is an Instrument of limited re
sources, far better fitted for chamber mnsio
and for recitals in small halls than for a Ufa
and death struggle with a modern orchestra In
an 'auditorium.' The Inevitable piano
concerts incites too often merelypopnlar won
der at physical endurance, and it suggests a
gymuastlo suit as a more appropriate costume
than the conventional evening dress." There
is much truth in Mr. Hale's observations,
though they do not touch Pittsburg very close
ly, where we have no large hall, no permanent
orchestra and therefore too few, rather than
too many, piano concerts,
Upon the playing of a young artist, whose
first American residence was in Pittsburg, the
Musical Courier has this to say the occasion
being the opening of the Lenox Lyceum by
Theodore Thomas, referred to in this column
last Sunday. -"A genuine surprise and a most
pleasing one was the first appearance here of
Mr. Franz WUczek, a young Austrian violinist
and a pupil of Joachim. He came, played and
conquered. He was heard in Wlenlawski's
Romance and Finale a la Ztngara,' which he
performed with exquisite tone, purity of into
nation, excellent and finished technlc and good
bowing, and he pleased the public no less
through the artlstlo value of his playing than
by means of the charm and apparent modesty
of his personality, both of which acted like a
genuine revelatisn. It goes without saying
that the young artist was heartily applauded
and after a triple recall he added as an encore
Sarasate's difficult Zigeunerweisen which, un
der Victor Herbert's direction of the orches
tral accompaniment, waa performed in a most
brilliant manner."
A EAILE0AD CLUCK SCHEME.
The Time on the Burllnfitoa Bead Will be
Absolutely Correct.
Chicago, January 1L The Chicago,
Burlington and Quincy Bailway Company
is about to adopt a system that will make
alT the clocks on its various lines synchron
ize' with the clock in the general office of.
Chicago. This system, on which Gen
eral Inspector of "Watches Baymoud Greggs
has been working since last March, is bated
upon a novel principle. Briefly explained,
it consists ot lbO self-winding and( self
setting clocks, which will be placed at all
innction Toints on the Unrllnr-tnn. ThpiA
.clocks will be connected with tne telegraph
instrument, ana once every zi hours the
operators will correct them with the master
clock in this city by en operation no more
intricate than turning a switch. 'Within
three-firths of a second, while all the clocks
are thus joined, they will be synchronized.
Thus absolutely correct time will be guar
anteed at every station on the road between
Denver, St. Paul, Minneapolis, Omaha,
St. Joseph, Kansas Citv and Chicago.
The advantage of this system is that no
special wires are required, and, as the
clocks wind themselves every hour, they re
quire no attention beyond occasionally re
newing the electric batteries. Mr. Gregg
starts this morning with the clocks, and ex
pects to have them all in place and the sys
tem in operation bv February 1. At that
time the "five-minute leeway" will be done
away with, and all trains will start at the
moment designated in the orders. This ar
rangement, it is said, will greatly lessen the
danger of accidents.

The Plain Truth
Is that Hood's Barsaparllla has cured thousands
of people who suffered severely with rheuma
tism. It neutralizes the lactic acid in the blood,
which causes those terrible pains and aches,
and also vitalizes and enriches the blood, thus
preventing a recurrence of the disease. These
facts warrant us in urging yon. If you suffer
with rheumatism, to try Hood's Sarsaparllla.
"Having been tronbled with Inflammatory
rheumatism for many years, my favorable at
tention was called to Hood's Barsaparllla by an
advertisement ot cures it had effected. I have
now used three bottles of Hood's Barsaparllla,
and can already testify to beneficial results. I
highly recommend It as a great blood purifier."

A COLD WAVE A5f 0110100.
That H What They Call it toe the Mm
tart I 30 Above Zero.
Chicago, January 11. Sergeant Frank
enfield received orders from "Washington
this morning to hoist the cold wave flag.
"It will be as much as 80 degrees above
aero to-night," said the Sergeant, shivering
at the thought. "That does not look much
like a cold wave, bnt when yon come to
think of a drop from 6 9 where the ther
mometer stood 'this morning to 80, it it
a big change." A heavy south wind, di
rect'from the cotton and sugar cane conn
try, swept through Chicago this morning. It
had attached to it a mellow warmth that
was very comforting and made the 'ther
mometer climb to a higher point than it
has touched in many a day. Forty-five de
grees were reached early this morning, and
then' the wind made a spurt that cleared the
skr of laggard clouds that had tailed behind
from last night's rain, and the mercury
whooped it up to the point indicated by Ser
geant Frankenfield.
Although the Signal Service office ther
mometer is the dfficial and doubtless the
nearest correct, there were not a few ther
mometers this morning that indicated0,
61 and 62 above, the kind of weather that
gets around just about April. It has been
a great manv years since such weather 'has
been equaled in Chicago. Last winter was
an exceptionally mild one, but the ther
mometer never reached 59.
