For a time It seemed as if the audi ence would turn the stage into a drill floor when they recalled the violinist and her accompanist a dosen times or more. The selection of an accompan ist was a happy one, and e qualified, too, as a soloist, for his several solos were most enthusiastically receive!. His technique was brilliant, remark ably clean and the tone had the sing ing quality. Asfor Maud Powell, it need but be said that she seems to improve with age, for if anything she played better last night than whenhere a year ego, and sustained her reputation as 'the great est living woman violinist." That is a pretty broad assertion, but anyway she-Ms one of the greatest.

In the second the soloist found splendid opportunity to display an im mense wealth of tone, and It also brought home to the listener that, while much of what D'Indy has writ ten may sound too Intricate, his v-ork Is that of a genius. For the openlnz number, the violinist read De lirwlot's ! concerto in G major and almost scored ; an ovation. The second division of ( the progTam was made up of little 1 gems that struck home. They wore j .Musette." by Sibelius: and '"Twilight," by Massenet, arranged by the soloist, and two movements from Bizet's "Car men," arranged by Sar&sate and bear ing very plainly the Sarasate stamp, with elaborate flourishes in harmonics and weird-sounding double stops.

Jan. 21. (I. N. S,) The London Dally Chronicle this morning prints a long editorial on President Wilson's foreign policy. It says: "Mr. Wilson has had to face more obloquy than almost any man who hss filled his position, but he believes he is pursuing the right policy to safe guard the interests of the nation. The basis of that policy is the maintenance of treaty obligations and international law, and behind it all there is a strong feeling against the domination of democracy by militarism. "If the British press and public took more trouble to understand him and were more conscious of the impolicy and absurdity of lecturing the great republic on what Its president ought to do, it would be much to the ad vantage of the Anglo-American future, and that future must be a large part of the future of the world. Occupies Thankless Bole. "President Wilson occupies what is apparently the unenviable position of satisfying neither side the thankless role of the neutral who aims at being impartial. "The personal position of the presi dent has been one of exceptional diffi culty, lie has incurred bitter and re lentless hatred of aJl German-Americana Besides the hostility of this class and the defection of the Bryan Democrats, he has put up with the powerful opposition of the moneyed In terest s." The Times today prints prominently the blockade proclamation issued by Abraham Lincoln, and makes it the text of an editorial leader urging a blockade on Germany. Xdnooln's Porce Hot Competent. "Lincoln announced that a com petent force would be posted to en force the blockade," the Times says, "although he had no "uch force. We "made no formal protest. We were anx ious for the friendship of the Amer ican people, so we allowed them plenty of time for the process. Even if the effectiveness of our blockades were at first open to question, we might rea sonably expert from America that fa vorable interpretation of a strict law which we freely allowed her."

"An empire S.) that stretches from Arras to Bagdad cannol be start-vd, even if Its enemies cut off nil s'iprlieH from without." says' the Cologne Gazette, in an article on ths prospective tightening of the blockade by the allies.
