Postponement .of tbs Academy of Science and Art Election. EOCIETI CHATTER OF A SPRlXGfBIDAI Our 7'Iorart Clnb marked the close of its thirteenth season with a choral performance that has never been equalled in this com munity and, indeed, cunld not have been much better done by any similar chorus In existence. These be strong words, but carefully -weighed withal; they are put in the forefront of this review, as conveying the most significant achievement of last evening's concert at Old City Hall by the Moiart Club with the Boston Symphony Orchestra. Before the choral work forming the bulk of the programme, however, were prefaced two instrumental numbers that call for prior attention. The first was Liszt's Sym phonic Poem, (Anglice) "Tasso; his Xa mentation ,and Triumph." This, the second of that brilliant series of 12 works for which Liszt coined the name of Poeme JSympho -nique, and in which be embodied his ad vanced ideas upon programme music, is de signed to depict the woes endured so long by the noble Italian poet, and also the long deferred but complete triumph that he finally gained over bis persecutors. Though the "Tasso" has not heretofore, it is believld, been beard in Pittsburg, the general mode of treatment and the opulence of orchestral effect bestowed nponlt, may readily be Inferred rrom other of Its companion pieces notably from the third, "lies Preludes," given here by the Boston players last year. All Their Energies on the 'Work. Mr. Klfelsch and his superb orchestra bent their best energies to the performance of the work. The band does not seem to have suffered any such technical deterioration as some of the most ardent admirers of Mr. Gericke prince of drill-masters seemed to apprehend when his careful hand was remored. The string q aartet still remains unrivalled, the wood-wind is de lieionsly smooth and characteristic and the brasses more richly sonorous, yet prudently handled, than ever. Space does not permit de tailed review of the playing; suffice It to say thatMr.Kikiscb's readings and their realiza tion by the players were a: once intelligent, warm and forceful to a rare degree. .Liszt's work can claim no right to a better interpreta tion than it had last night. Two pieces forviolin, with pianoforte accom paniment, brought te the front Mr. Franz ICnelseL the Voncertmtlster of the orchestra. The beautiful "Bomanze," by Svendsen.isa more extended work thau usaally goes by that name; It might better be called a "ballade" or a "legend," following well-known prece dents. It is altogether charming music, redolent of Northern climes, but without cer tain'less desirable peculiarities ot the ultra modern Scandinavians. Mr. Kneiael displayed a delicious tone; not large, but sympathetlcand penetrating. His stylo is most refined, and there are abnndant warmth and feeling In his playing. However, even his most passionate moments are serious, it seems: and in his interpretation of one of Sarasate's famil iar Spanish Dances, despite the luscious tender ness of the eantilene and the arch grace of the J xuure caunviuus pu&saKcs, mere iraa iacj.in a certain dash, the sclntillant humor peculiar to the Spanish virtuoso-composer. The Triumph In the Requiem. Ve,rdi's great Manzoni Requiem filled the re mainder of the evening. Ot Its origin and characteristics enough has been recently said in this journal to obviate the need of snch com ment this morning. It formed last even ing the medium of a genuine triumph for Pittsburg's much-prized permanent chorus. With full remembrance of past successes particularly the "Elijah" of 18S9 and the two last "Messiah" performances this evening's work must be soberly adjudged, tak ing all qualities together, to be the best ot the entire 13 years. There were perfect attack, rare purity of intonation, great clearness of phrasing and all the other points of choral virtuosity upon as high a plane as has yet Been touched. There were, also, at least as mnch spirit, earn estness and Intelligence in realizing to the full the composer's intentions, as ever before. And there was, besides, a refinement in shading, a delicacy of nuance, a delightf ol pianissimo, such as this chorus has never yet equaled. It is a great pleasure to see this "de partment of dynamic effect brought by Con ductor McColluin up to the same high level that characterizes all the rest of the club's singing. It were impossible, even did space permit, to enumerate in detail the portions of Verdi's dramatic work in which these several qualities were most apparent. Among the soloists, the chief credit, perhaps, belongs to Mrs. S. C Ford, of Cleveland, who was at the very last moment summoned to take Mrs. Bishop's place, vacated by sudden illness. Her rich voice and fervid stvle earned the hearty applause they leceived. Miss Lena Little, the mezzo-soprano, displayed a good voice, except in the lower register, and sang nith taste and feeling. Mr. Panl Zimmerman. Pittsburg's veteran tenor, has not been in bet ter voice for some time, and sang with all his old-time finesse and skill. Dr. Carl Martin's noble bass and dignified manner of singing were effective in the extreme. Too much credit cannot be given to Conductor McCoIlum for his all-important share in this exceedingly successful concert. just rirrr feee cokceets.

Mr. and Mrs. Samuel McKee, both of whom have been suffennc from a prolonged attack ot the grip that confined each to their own apart ment with only a series of coughs as a direct means of communication, are, fortunately, with the assistance of good nursing, gradually recovering. Mrs. McKee is the better of the two. and during the last few days has been able to take several drive; out. It is their intention to leave for Atlantic City the nrst of the week If Mr. McKee recovers sufficiently to permit a trip by that time.

FOB THE LITTLE PEOPLE. The Coming Strawberry Festival at the Episcopal Church Home. The little folks out at the Episcopal Church Home are already looking forward with great interest to the ISth of June, the day decided upon for the annual strawberry festival, and their dear little sunburned faces will look even brighter than tbey did yesterday when that event comes to pass. The affair Is always one ef great beauty as strawberry festivals go and arrangements this year are in order to make It more elaborate than ever. Of the 90 Inmates in the home, not a single in disposition is reported, and the grip Ignored the establishment entirely, did not claim even temporarily one victim. Episcopal Church Home Anniversary.

As a consequence, the regular annual meeting, which should have been held then, was adjourned until the first Friday evening in June. The present officers will therefere hold over until that meeting, when the yearly election will, be held. The Mozart Club concert was responsible for this state ot affairs, all the members but IS one less than the necessary' quorum having eone there after the fashion of truants. . "The- paper read was a production by that well-known and practical scientist. Prof. F. C. Phillips, of the Western Univetaity, bis subject being "The Prominent Problem of a Water Supply." The lecturer, in his preliminary remarks, de clared that to the province of engineers had. formerly belonged this question, but that im portant, disooverles, followed by research ud extensive investigations of waters in general,, has so enlarged the field that it was a province now occupied by specialists such as biologists, analytical chemists and kindred scientists. Dealing with local water supplies, the dis tinguished gentleman reverted to bis investiga tions ot the river waters used by tbo two cities, and spoke of Ms ex periments in filtration cud . purification. Theirater of the Ohio, at Cbartiers creek, four miles below this city, be found to contain very little organic nitrate, and to be about as safe as pump water: and be was of the belief that water taken from tho iver five or six miles be low would be about as pure as that taken from the river the same distance above the city. Air is the best purifier, and its action Ss more pro nounced on running water. -Band because of the air being In the Inter-spaces of the sand layer, and because of the network of bacteras formed over the grains of sand is the best ar rester of organic matter, the real purifying matter being, strange to say. the. bactersB. Water acting on iron, forming oxiue of iron, or rest, and that solution afterward freely mixed with air and then allowed to filter through sand, be stated to be one ot the most efficient and quick processes of filtration. He instanced one plant of that kind, and also Illustrated the idea by demonstration before the assemblage. CHTTiDRKTTS AID SOCIETY. The Old Officer Re-33ected and an Interest ing Keport Presented.
