A complete score of a new opera by
Verdi, the existence of which has hitherto

which wer;' found among his effects after
his death were to be destroyed, it is im
probable that this opera will ever be pro
duced.

Once Paderewski wrote a little minuet
in the Mozartean style, so th^ legend go >s,
when he was a poor teacher In War
saw and was intended to prove to a friend
of the composer, a Polish po-t whose name
is only less impossible to spell than it is to
pronounce, that Mozart -could be imitated.
The public liked it and C. A. Ellis, who
manages his American tours, has received
?more than a score of letters from different !
cities where Paderewski is to play this win- j
ter demanding that this minuet be placed I
on the program. The letters will be pre
sented to the pianist when he arrives.
Orchestras will always have a certain
number of soloists in a series of concerts,
not only to give variety to their program*,
but to admit one performance of important
works which call for a solo artist. There is,
however, a general tendency today among
the better established orchestras to cut
down the number of soloists. The Boston
Symphony Orchestra 'has taken a lead in
this matter. I-ast season it tried the ex
periment of radically reducing the number
of its assistant artists, not merely In Bos
ton. but wherever it played. The result was
surprising. Not only was there no falling
off in attendance when no soloist was an
nounced. but in New York, a typical illus
tration. the largest receipts of the season
Were at two concerts where the orchestra
was alone. The experiment was so success
ful that for the present season a schedule
has been arranged whereby in Boston tihere
will be solpists on twelve out of the twenty
four programs. In New York and the other
cities where series of concerts are given
the proportion of concerts with si'oiits wilt
be a little greater, but in many of the cities
where only one concert is giv n there will
be no assisting artist. It is very significant
of the trend of the times that most of the
cities in the middle west which tiie Boston
Symphony will visit next January have had
it sp^-citl-d in the contracts tiiat they want
only the orchestra and no soloist.

A JUSTICE REMOVED.
T. 'W. Fitzgerald, Special Sessions,
Brooklyn, Debarred.
NEW YORK. October 5.?By the unani
mous decision of Justices Hirschberg,
Woodward, Gaynor. Rich and Miller the
appellate division of the supreme court in
Brooklyn has removed Thomas W. Fitz
gerald from office as justice of the court of
special sessions and disbarred him from the
further practice of the law.
The charges were framed against Justice
Fitzgerald by Charles J. McDermott of the
grievance committee of t>fe Brooklyn Bar
Association after rumors that he had swin
dled some of his clients. Then he absent
ed himself from the court, but continued to
dr?w his salary. Hi# excuse was that he
was ill and unable to attend to his judicial
duties, but it was ascertained that at the
time of his feigned illness he was having
a good time at his home in Oceanport, N.
J., and frequented the hotels at Uiat place.

NEW YORK. October 5.?Gen. Charles P.
Eagan. IT. S. A., retired, who lives at 807
West End avenue, summoned Policeman
Martin Davis of the West 100th street sta
tion and ordered him yesterday to arrest
two boys.
"What were they doing?" asked Davis.
"Playing hockey in the street," said Gen.
Eagan.
Davis arrested the boys and took them to
tiie children's court, where they said they
were Roland Davis, ten years old, and Arch
ibald Curry, nine years, of 2V2 West 104th
street. The youngsters said they had been
playing shinny on roller skates in front of
Gen. Eagan's home.
"This complaint hasn't been drawn up
properly," said Justice Deuel. "In the first
place the game of hockey is not a violation
of the law. Secondly, these boys weren't
playing hockey, but shinny, and I discharge
them."
Gen. Eagan did not appear to prosecute
the boys.
G. L. PEABODY ASKS DIVORCE.
Prominent Bay State Man Says His
Wife Left Him in 1904.
SALEM, Mass., October 5.-^George Lee
Peabody of the Boston banking firm of
Lee, Higgitison & Co. has filed a libel for
divorce in the Essex county court againat
lils wife, Elizabeth Crowninshield Peabody.
Desertion is given as the cause of the suit.
Both Mr. and Mrs. Peabody are repre
sentatives of the best families in Massa
chusetts. Their home is at Hamilton, but
at present Mr. Peabody is in London and
will be there for at least six months. His
wife Is athletic and a devotee of outdoor
pastimes, particularly riding to the hounds.
The bill states that they were' married
June 4, 1801, and that they lived at Bos
ton, Beverly and Hamilton at different
times. Mr. Peabody declares that his wife,
who was Elizabeth Copley Crowninshield
of Salem and Marbleheadj before her mar
riage. left him In September, 1!HM.
Mr. Peabody is one of Boston s best
known club members. He is a member of

Declares Race Separation Necessity.
DENVER, Col., October 5.?J. N. Walker,
president of the Colorado African Coloniza
tion Society, in an address on the race
problem, delivered here recently at the
Central Presbyterian Church, said race
separation was essential for the blacks as
well as for the whites, because only by that
means can the African race develop along
the lines which nature intended. Conditions
are steadily growing worse for them, he
said. The only way to escape a condition
that is rapidly becoming worse is by emi
gration to Liberia, where a black l-epub'lc
can be built up. Many blacks would like to
go. but owing to high steamship rates and
their own lack of means, they were com
pelled to remain here. Tne situation, he
said, called for congressional aid.
