In Worcester Mr. Moulding is repeating what used to be said ty tarif: advocates in America — rJinely. that cheapness is not the only thing; in the world, and that it is more important to keep workinsr people employed in home industries than It is to be sacrificing everything to the Bcnsozner** fart!" He is asking them whether it is an advantage to have prices a shade lower if they are out of srerk a good part of the year and unable to *zm living wages. The argument has increased force from the local conditions. Worcester is the centre cf industries once prosperous but TSO-K- declining. The porcelain works, brickyards ari iron foundries hold their ground, but tho tanneries have been closed, owing- to American cc-petion;- milling, -with its by-products, has disappeared from the Severn and Tern*; valleys, the top industry has been ruined and the manu facture of gloves baa fallen off. Oldtinie American politicians who remember tfce controversies raised over the defence of Glcversville and its industry would be highly entertained by the speeches now to be heard in Worcester. \ In their time the loudest outcries earn e frcra tourists returning from Europe, who had teen buying cheap gloves in England and considered it iniquitous that the general body of consumers should be taxed for the sake of banding up a rival industry in America. In Worcester, where there - .-re a hundred glove facicries half z. century ago. there are now not rccre than a dozen, and at the political meetings held :r. the district -•--- are read from Glov f=rsvm<? to show how jprosperous the American industry has become since it received adequate ttziS rejection.

The figures are as follows: Jews, U.2~>X>: Greek Catholics. 130.157.000; Prot estants. 166.666,5ij«v. Mahometans. 216.630,000; Roman Catholics. 272.638,500; heathens. 836,732.000. Another exhibit quotes the following figures to show how money in America is spent: Foreien missions, $7,500,000; chewing gum. $31,000. .000- millinery, S80.000.0fl0; confectionery, $178,000,000 ; church work. $250,000,000; Jewelry. $700,000,000; liquors, RU2C.000.000. Judge Beaver, former Governor of Pennsylvania. in an address to-day said that there were 1,300.000 Presbyterians in the United States and that each one rave- only $1 a year 1 or x benevolences. Alfred Marling, of New York, said the Presby terians were responsible for 100,000.000 heathens, and that it was the duty of the present generation of ill* Church to win these people to Christianity. The Rev. Dr. A. L. Phillips, of Richmond. v a said he recently sent out letters addressed to men in all walks of life asking them questions regard nig missionary work. To a query if they read mis sionary literature seven men answered "Yes." six teen No." and nineteen "Irregularly." To the question, "Do you read missionary maga zines?" ■even men answered "Yes."" sixteen "Xo," ar.d twenty-five "Sometimes." The following are some of the answers Dr. Phil lips received from his male correspondents to the query why they did not read missionary literature: "Lack of sanity and temperance in style"; "dry reading"; "affected with dulness, coupled with ir reverent calls for money," ana "written for women and children." Dr. Phillips then asked his audience of clergy men and laymen how many had read three mis sionary books in the last twelve months. Hardly more than a dozen of the eighteen hundred men present raised their hands. Dr.« Phillips finally asked who had not read one missionary book in the year, and it seemed as if nearly all the palms in the audience were uplifted. The convention adjourned to-night. -• — EX-GOV.

FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 14, 1908 MUSIC. THE RUSSIAN SYMPHONY SOCIETY. Each concert seems to deepen the. mystery stir rounding the Russian Symphony Society. The audi ences do not grow in numbers, but ?eem to change in appearaace from time to time, the only stable characteristic, apparently, . being a largo disposition to be entertained by the trifling music which makes up so large a part of the programme. Last night, when the fifth concert took place, the diversion was found in a set of dance pieces from a ballet by Glazounow entitled "The Seasons." The music was designed to accompany dances descriptive or dclineative or suggestive of meteorological' phe nomena belonging to winter, and with the help of pictures and costumed dancers undoubtedly makes a pretty effect; but without those accessories it la flimsy material in the concert room. Nevertheless two or three of the short numbers furnished the few moments of release from boredom which the concert offered. There was an overture by Borodin to an opera entitled ' "Prince Igor." a symphonic poem by JBalakirevr tntitltd "Tamara.", two movements from Davidow's violoncello concerto. the solo part played by May Mukle, and finally Tschaikowskys "Marche Slave," the best reserved for the last. A better performance might have disclosed interesting things in the overture, but under th* circumstances it sounded like mediocre theatre music. The symphonic poem was a weariness to the flesh as well as to the spirit. It was supposed to tell a tale com pounded out of the vampire superstition and Gau tier's tale -One of Cleopatra's Nights"; a princess living in a castle beside a river lures men into her ' castle, whence come sounds of revelry all night long, and in the morning the body of the lover Is found floating in the rushing waters. The character of the descriptive music can easily be imagined, but not the wearisome rempllssage with which the composer has filled the score. Now that these noveltias .have been heard they will disappear from the local concert repertory, unless the Russian Symphony Society lives long enough to bring them forward again in further ance of that mission which.- it seems impossible to fathom. Miss Muker played the Davidow musio with muslclanly skill and fine bravura. H. E. K. "DIE WALKUERE" AT THE OPERA. ▼.'heth^r Mr. Andreas Dippel will combine with his duties as one of the two managers of th» Met ropolitan Opera House next season an occasional appearance on the stage lias not yet been made known, but last night, at least, he came to the rescue in his wonted fashion and sang In Mr. Burgstaller's stead the role of Siegmund in "Die "U"a.ikure." The continued indisposition of ■'Burgsta: ler has seriously curtailed his activities this winter, and as Siegmund is one of his best personations there must have been a good many disappointed persons in last night's audience. Thore was artistic merit, as there alwaya is. in Mr. Dippels perform ur...^ of the Vulsung's part, but this couid not wholly offset the lack of beauty in his singing. For the rest, "Die WsAftnT* was given, as it has often before been heard. Mr. Hertz conducted, and he produced some thrilling orchestral outbursts, the score being read throughout with sympathetic energy and with a wider gamut of dynamic values than has sometime* been offered under his leader ship Mme. Fremstad was again a SiegUnde of memorable intensity and power. There was a large ness of style in her singing, and her movements in the first act that suggested that, like her ex emplar Mme. Lilli Lehmann. this Sieglinde might also shine aa a Donna Anna In Mozarfs maater work Mme. Gadskis Eninnhilde was of marked besot* in her seem with Siegmund, and Mr. Van Rooy "glorified Wotar/s music by his opulent tones. There waa a familiar Hunding in the person of Mr. Blass ar.d the Fri,-ka was Mme. Kirkby-Lunn. There was an audience of good size and enthusias tic temper. GRAKD OPEKA IN ENGLISH NEXT YEAR To Be Introduced by Metropolitan's New Management. TWfe introduction to New York of grand opera in English is now a certainty for next season accord in* to a statement made yesterday by Otto H. Kahn. chairman of the executive committee of the Metropolitan Opera Company. Since the announce ment of the resignation of Heinrich Conned there have been many rumors as to changes in the policy of the house. Not the least persistent of these was in regard to opera in English. ••It has been a dream of ours," said Mr. Kahn yesterday, "to produce English opera. Somehow the impression has been made that we Intend to give translations of Italian, French and German opera This is not 50. We want to produce Eng lish opera as an addition to and not as a substitute for the operas that have heretofore been sung here. Just how far we will go next season in this line we do not know yet. It is likely that we will begin with Weber's 'Oberon. 1 It is not generally known that this was composed to an English libretto, so it will not be a translation, although it is more familiar in German. ••It has been the idea of a number of directors for a long time now that the Metropolitan Opera House would be more truly a national institution if Ensign opera were given there. Mr. Dippel, Mr. Mahler and I have discussed this recently and we believe that such a course, would be an improvement. Of course, the details are not yet completed and the change in repertoire will be Tadual. It will, moreover, aid native American talent of which there will be no scarcity. It has been said that there will be a dearth of Ameri can tenors. I think this is not so. As opera In English becomes more frequently produced the in ducements for native singers will increase. All this will add to the national educational value of the Metropolitan Opera House." Mr Kahn said that as yet he could tell noth ing definite as to the reported negotiations tow ard securing M. Renaud for the Metropolitan. "It Is a little early to talk of that,' he remarked. Al though the directors of the opera company are continuing to make addition* to the corps of sing ers Mr Kahr. said he wished it understood that Mr.' Gatti-Casazza and Mr. Dippel would have full charge next season. "We do not care to hav«* people think, ' he said, "that the business men who are directors are to interfere in any way with the musical directors. Whatever is being done now in the way of en tragin" singers is being done because this is the £» to do It and a delay would be detrimental to the interests of the house." DR. FROST GETS MENINGITIS SERL T M. President of Berea College Rushes Medicine South to Save Students Life. Dr William Goodell Frost, president of Berea College, in the Western Kentucky mountain region, who is in this dtjr on ■ lecture tour, applied at the Rockefeller Institut- for Medical Bllßirrh, at East Uth Street and the river, early yeeterdav tor !<T'im for use in the prevention of the meningitis epidemic at Berea. Dv. Kob» rt r ( .wley, the physician of th<» mountaineers' college, sent word to Dr. Frost that two students had died from meningitis and *a epi demic threatened the college. Dr. Frost rushed to the Rockefeller Institute at 3 o'clock in the morning, but he could rouse no one until dawn. He showed the telegram from Berea and was subjected to a severe examination, as is usual in such cases of request for the serum, the secret of which is held by the physicians of the Rockefeller Institute. Upon his proving his identity, Dr. Frost received six bottles of the valuable serum from Dr. Simon Flexner. The bottles were sent by special delivery to the mountain college, and It Is expected that it will reach the college by noon to-day, in time to prevent the death at a student who is afflicted with meningitis and to prevent its further spread.

Despite rumors current in theatrical circles that she and Mr. Belasco had reached an agreement. Miss Blanche Bates, now playing at the Academy of Music, has finally decided to sever her business relations with that manager at the close of the present season. Next season, unless the counsel of her friends prevails, she will be wen in a new play and under the management of Frank McKee. head of the United States Amusement Company. 1 Mr McKee. It was said yesterday, has already stored away her signature to a contract of long duration. The contract was signed last week, according to friends of the actress. The United 3tates Amuse ment Company has made no formal announcement of Its capture, but will probably do so in a few days. Miss Bates would neither confirm nor deny the report that she had accepted an offer from the co-called theatrical syndicate. It was intimated, however, that she. might have a final word to say before she leaves the city. Her successful engage ment at the Academy closes to-morrow sight. Miss Bates's contract with Mr. Bela«co has still three years to run before, it is legally terminated, but Mr. McKe* and his associates are said to have found a clause in it that appeared vulnera ble, and should Mr. Belasco choose to offer battle they will be in readiness It is not likely that Mr. Bela3co will allow himself to be humbled by his competitors in the field, and a pretty fight is sure to ensue. It is sail for* Mr. Belasco that he had a now play for Miss Bates. In which he was to present her next season, and that since that removed her only grievance there could be no Just reason for her. to break a contract. Miss Bates is sail to have ether grievances which she purposes making public at the proper time. Her friends, who have no hesitancy in making it known that she will leave Mr. Belaaco. are unani mous in the opinion that she is making a mistake. They pointed out that th« opportunJtes under Mr Belasco should be apparent to her. She thought oth erwise. For several years the United States Amuse ment Company has hart a keen ey<» on the move ment of fixed stars in Mr. Belasco'3 firmament, and, needing a few luminaries, decided on a plan of attracting those that had found particular fa vor with the public. Ml3s Bates is the first star of any importance to consider offers from the syndi cate. It is «aid that there will be more surprises chroni cled before the present reason is at an end. Mr. Belasco is watchful. Mr. McKee'a friends nay he never rests. GREEN ROOM CLUB'S LIBRARY. Messrs.

ROOSEVELT ON LINCOLN (President Roosevelt in Collier's for Feb. 15. 1303 ) I am glad that the effort is to be mad* to ees» b-at* in appropriate fashion the hundredth anni versary of the birth of Abraham Lincoln. Except iVe onv Washington. Lincoln's figure stands fore most in all our history. It Is an excellent thins S?. nation to study the history of Its great deed* in the past and commemorate the lives of the great men who did them: provided only that this duty 18 undertaken with the earnest desire M Droflt thereby. to that the men of the present gen eration may render .-"-vice worthy of the genera tion" that are past. Each generation has Its own peculiar work to do. tts own peculiar issues to face Nevertheless, the underlying qualities which enable men to face thes* ever-varying issues must ever remain themselves the same, and therefore the live issuea of the present can be faced to bet ter advantage by men who have in good faith studied how the one-time leaders of the nation faced the dead issues of the past. All upright citizens nhould study with peculiar care Lincoln a life Like Washington's", the keynote of Lincoln career was disinterested devotion to the welfare of tie country, combined with a rugged and healthy duality of mind which made it as impossible for him to be lnefnci°nt as to be false to his Ideals?. There are man--" men who have made great marks In history by wrongdoing, by spending their Ures primarily for their own advancement. But this man both lived and died that the nation might crow steadily greater and better, and the only reward he accepted was that which came in th« «haoe of the chance to render service to his fellow countrymen. Lincoln saved the Union, and yet at the sa:ne time lifted higher than ever before the cause of liberty, The fundamental difference, be tween the careers of our two great national heroes and those of almost any other men of equal note in the world's history is shown by the fact that when we think of our two great men we think inevitably not of glory, bat cf duty, not of what the man did for himself in achieving name or fame or position, but of what he did for his fallows. Lincoln. like Washington, had the right ideal and also lived up to it In practical fashion. No more blessed thing could have happened to a great democratic republic like ours than to have had this man of the plain people, this rail splitter, this Country lawyer, develop into its hero and savior; for every feature of his career can '.)« studied as a lesson by each of us, whatever his station, as we lead our several lives Lincoln was a shrew, I and enlightened man of the world, and he had all the practical qualities necessary for a man who was to | ;. »uch nien a.< his countrymen were and are; i..l jrei he was also i genius of the heroic type a leader who rose level to the greatest — - - through which this nation or any other nation had to pass in the nineteenth century. Alt of us throughout this country. Northerners and South erners, Easterners and Westerners. now look back to the men who. with hlsji valor und st<»rn devo tion to duty, lough' each for the tight as It was given to him to !•<*•* the right, whether h<* wore the blue or whether lie wore the jrray. Th» he roes of each side in the treat struggle of the fetir dark y««rs are now the- heroes at the whole nation, an ) so the whole natton i in fittingly Join la cele brating the -••:■ birthday of th" man M whom more than to any other we owe It that we re a nation st all Died.
