Ernesto Beriinien in Recital Ernesto Berumen, a young pianist who has been heard here a number of times, gave a recital at Aeolian Hall yesterday afternoon. He has a fair tcchnic end rather more than his snare r>- temperament. In fact, warmth and x'ubcrance are the chief characteris- ? tics of his playing. His performance of a Brahms sonata was pleasing, but even Mr. Berumen's youth did no: ? uc '???-?d in camouflaging the boresomeness : of Glazounoff's theme and variations ?-the variations being of the endless type. The pianist was at his best in Rachmaninoff's "Klegie" and other short pieces. In the evening, at the same hall, Charlotte Demuth-Williams's violin playing wa?? as gracious as her per? sonality. Here is a woman virtuosa who dors not strain every nerve to arhieve aggressive masculinity. Mrs. Williams ha? a rarely beautiful tone, warm, emotional, sympathetic, ade? quate technic and delightful repose. She gave genuine pleasure iu Handel's Sonata in A major, Bruch's Concerto in G tumor, and n group of shorter pieces by ?hiding, ' Grasse, Silt and o tit er?.

Cap-I tivate Immense Audience at Lexington With Grand Rendition of Noted Opera The lobby of the Lexington Theater last night resembled the focal point of a general Italian offensive. Tin* cause was the conjunction in "Rigo letto" of two stars - Mme. Galli Curci and Signor Tita Buffo?and our Italian fellow citizens were greatly moved thereat. Thougn several thousand were refused admission, enough got in to make thing.** fervid, in this they were aided by nearly as lar^e a number of non-Italians, some of whom had paid as high as $2o a seat. It was a very noisy and at times even obstreperous assemblage. Signor Ruffo's Rigoletto possesses many virtues. It is masculine, it is poignant and at times it is superbly .-?ung. His upper rotes were last night as thrilling as ever, and the "Vendetta Tremenda" swept the audi? ence from its ??i c. -t was. however, no; to the credit of either Signor Ruff o or Conductor Marinuzzi that they yielded to the demands of an encore. Verdi should be .'pared from being made a barytone's holiday, even a barytone of the caliber of Signor Ruf fo. It is Signor Rufr'o's clarion upper register, the ease of his tone emission, his breath support, his intelligence and his persona: magnetism which make him the singer that he is. His medium register is excellent In quality, but no moro; hi-* lower tones vanish into nothing, and lu- takes wide liberties with the composer. Victor Mauri'!, greatest of Rigolettos and friend of Verdi, sat in a stage bos last night. We wonder what were )\:.: thoughts ? Mine. Galli-Curci was in excellent voice and she sang in tune, but Signor Schipa was anything but the Duke, lie sang with hard, pallid tones and con? tinually broke up his phrases as on a chopping block. Signor Marinuzzi con? ducted.

Peter Rabbit's heart sei med lo ::? p o' i v and then come right tin in 1 . ruth. Of course it didn't do anyt! ing of th : kind, but it scented as ?' il d d. You see, Peter, crouching right in plain sight in the middle of ?' open space, had just made up I ; mil ! thai it? a few minutes it would be safe to run for the dear Old Briar-patchy when Reddy Fox suddenly turned and came trotting straight to war?! Pet ?:-. Peter had a feeling that this time Reddy would not turn aside as he had ? ? re, bul would come straight across th; littl? open space. ; I was all Peter coi '< ' no! to bolt as fasl a-^ b?a l"gs cou!?! take him. Hut he didn't. He sat g (ha? something would omething did. Ever - nee daylight that morning the Merry Littl Bn .::??? had been wan minutes that little open space was . brown no longer, but. ^-hite, and in the middle of it vas a little white mound, it was Peter, of course. But you i would never, never, never have guessed that it was Peter. Then, as suddenly as they began to fall, the little snow-flakes stopped fall? ing because that particular little snow cloud had dropped all it had to drop. The Merry Little Breeze raced away to try to lind another snow-cloud. Reddy Fox shook himself and once more turned toward the little open space. It was all white now with a little white lump in the very middle There wasn't a sign of any living-thing. Reddy hesitated. He saw another elou'l of snow-flakes being whirled to? ward him. That decided the matter for him. "The Green Forest is the place for me on a day like this," mut? tered Reddy. "It is ouite useless to C 4 *:;'mM -v ' "' o .'< * minutes that little, open apare iras brovm no longer, but white, and ht the middle of it ices a little white mouvd dering about over the Creen Meadows, now green no longer because it was winter. Occasionally there would be a little flurry of snow, for the sky was ?'" der by snow-clouds, ana the Mer? riest Little Breezes would whirl the fil e dry . ttle snow-flakes this way and th : waj. ' i was great fun. Just as Reddy Fox was almost to the | little open place where Peter -was, a Merry Little Breeze happened along. H v s an idle Little Breeze, for all morning long it had found nothing to do !;.;? play. But here was a chance. The Merry Little Breeze saw Peter's ; danger and instantly it became an : active Little Breeze, a very active Lit? tle Breeze. ft found and rushed up a little snnw , cloud, ami as the liny little flakes fell I it whirled them around and round Peter ! so that for a few minutes he couldn't | be seen at all. It dashed them into the fice of Reddy Fox so that they almost blinded him. an?! he hastily turned hie back to them. Faster and faster fell the tiny snow-flakes, and harder and harder the Merry Little Breeze whirled them around and over Peter. In a few hunt a;:'* longer out here. Besides, I don't believe Peter Rabbit i**? anywhere about. Mrs. Peter was just trying to fool me. That's it- she was trying to fiool me. It is more than likely that Peter is over in the Green Forest this very minute.'' So once more Reddy turned, and this time lie headed straight for the Green Forest and he trotted along swiftly, so swiftly that in a few minutes he had disappeared in the Green Forest, where he could lind plenty of shelter from the j falling snow. ? Then, the little niouna of white in th<* middle of the little open place sud? denly came to life and Peter Rabbit started for the dear Ojd Brinr-pateh, lippertv-Iipperty-lip, as fast as he could i go. And the Merry Little Br?ese danced j along with him and blew the snow out of his fur coat and was happy. You see, Peter and the Merry Little Breeze are' the best of friends. (Copyright, l?i". by T.
