DOUBLY A SUCCESS.
The Second Boston Symphony Orches
tra Concert Last fcvenin?,
ASSISTED BY THE MOZAUT CLUB.
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.

Mr. and Mrs. Samuel McKee, both of whom

the grip that confined each to their own apart
ment with only a series of coughs as a direct

Thoroughly Bandied by a Prominent Scien
tist at the Academy of Science.
lo quorum for business was the condition of
affairs at last evenings meeting of .the
Academy of Science. 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.

. That tells the story of a gigantic purchase in Soys1
Children's Clothing recently made by us. We were
week.offered the stocks
iurers of Boys' 'Clothing in New York. ' The price-'$
Tiamed was such that, although we had an immense, stock K
on hand, we could, notr in; justice to ourselves and our ,-i
patrons', decline the purchase. Money never talked lot' d- -si
ert nor was it,evtr laid out to better advantage than zVi.tj!
this, deal. When we came to open up the goods we found"
that we had struck a regular bonanza. Hundreds. of -.-i
new, this season's suits, up to the top notch of stylex and
pie niake and trimperfectfully equal to the goodsiwhich
cost us double the money. And we could sell them at far .j
higher pricis and they would not be considered dear. But,
as a simple matter of so much advertising, we are going
to let you have them on just the same terms that we se
cured them '-half price. Suits with short Jjants- and''
suits with long pants, many beautiful materials, in light
stripes and mixtures, and as to the styles, nothing better
has been shown in the .clothing, market this season, It's a
large assortment, but even large" stocks soon melt when. ''
soldat the prices we have named on these. So, if you ..
mear&'to: secure any of them, come at once. , We shall nolr.
v be able to duplicate this offer for some time.- - -,
