The Daily Record is delivered by hand in Dresden, and may be ordered at any Post Office throughout the German Empire.

For other countries, marks 2.50. c BERLIN The diftner and ball of the American colony of Berlin on Washington’s birthday, in the Zoological Gardens, was a rousing success, such as Consul- General Thackara, who had done the main work in- arranging the affair, had not dreamed of. There were about 140 guests when the musical entertain ment began, the programme of which has been al ready published in these columns. Ambassador and Mrs. Tower took part also. The large hall was nicely decorated with American and German flags. There was only one official speech, that by Dr. Stevenson of the Western University of Ohio, who eloquently perorated on the “Father of his Country.” After the entertainment the guests sat down at small tables and enjoyed a fine dinner, which was well served. And then the ball started. At mid night, much too early for the young folks, the ball had to come to a stop. Rumour has it that quite a number of the enterprising younger Americans, who were just in the right mood to have some more fun, went from the Zoo to the “Speyrer Cafe,” where genuine American negroes are singing coon songs and dancing every night. The management, expecting something of that kind, had wisely prepared a special American programme for the evening, to the delight of the late-comers. It would be unfair to state or even guess when the last one straggled home. The participants of the Minstrel Show gohEt^ to Dresden assembled on Sunday night at the American Woman’s Club to refresh their memories by another rehearsal. There a change of the travelling programme was announced by Mrs. Thackara. The company are requested to meet on Tuesday morn ing at 7.30 sharp at the Anhalter Bahnhof, where the baggage will be taken care of and the tickets for a special car, which has been provided for the travellers, will be distributed. As Mrs. Thackara stated humourously, she has been provided with money to buy the tickets for Dresden; whether they would get the money to buy return tickets or whether they would have to walk home, she did not know. The train leaves at eight o’clock in the morning, not at ten o’clock, as had been announced before. At the station the company will be met by a local committee and shown to their hotel, where there is to be a rehearsal directly after arrival. Then everybody is at liberty to view the town until six o’clock in the evening. The performers will dress in their rooms and are requested to state at the hotel desk, what and at what time they want in the way of hot water, etc. for dressing purposes. After the performance the participants will change, and then supper will be served, which is set for 10.30. Everybody taking part at the supper and ball is requested to appear in evening dress. The ball will begin at 11.30, and—breakfast is to be served at six o’clock in the morning. So the American Berliners expect to have a busy day and a good time in Dresden. . Mr. and Mrs. Theodore Spiering have sent out in vitations for a Musical At Home on Wednesday, Febru ary 26th, at 4.30 p.m., in their apartment, 18 aj Bam berger Strasse. * Mr. Bernard Toldsmith, the popular insurance man, after having postponed his departure for the United States several times, sailed last Saturday, on the “Mauretania,” from Liverpool. Mrs. Dr. Blodgett entertained some friends at tea a few days ago at her residence, 4, Friedrich Wil helm Strasse. * Last Saturday, on Washington’s birthday, the Willard School had an At Home and dance at 27, Luitpold Strasse. * Last Sunday Mrs. Wm. D. Zerffi had invited her friends to an At Home, from 5 to 7, at 149, Kur- fiirsten Strasse. Mr. Alexander Heinemann added to the pleasure of the guests by singing several songs: (Continued’ on page 2.) \ 52 Prager Str. near Main R. R. Station.

It is an un fortunate circumstance, for this was their maiden voyage. There is every possibility that the ship will be ordered home. NORTH LEITRIM ELECTION. London, February 24. The result of the elec tion of a member in place of Mr. Charles Dolan, who resigned as a Nationalist to stand as a Sinn Fein candidate, was declared on Saturday, as follows:— Mr. F. Meehan (N.) 3,089 Mr. C. J. Dolan (Sinn Fein) . . . . 1,246 Majority . 1,843 The last contested election took place in 1900, when Mr. P. A. M’Hugh (N.) was returned with 4,025 votes over his Conservative opponent, Mr. C. J. Singleton, who received 383 votes. In 1906 Mr. M’Hugh was returned unopposed, but on elect ing to sit for North Sligo (where he had also been returned) the seat went to Mr. C. J. Dolan, who was elected unopposed. This result is a severe blow to the advocates of dis order in Ireland, or the “Ireland for the Irish” party, as they term themselves. Their present aim is the revival of the Irish tongue, but all efforts in this direction have . so far met with little response by the people. (Continued on page 2.) The Minstrels from Berlin arrive this morning in charge of Mrs. Thackara, who is accompanied by her two daughters. The committee has been ad vised that about 50 members of the Berlin colony will attend the performance and dance. A few tickets can still be had at the following addresses: American Consulate-General, Ammon Strasse 2, Fr. Bremermann, Esq., Prager Strasse 49, Victor Ila Clark, Esq., Mosczinsky Strasse 1, Daily Record Office, Struve Strasse 5, Dresdner Bank, Prager Strasse 39. Messrs. William Morse Rummel and Walter Rummel, who are respectively musical and stage director of the Minstrel Show, are grandsons of the famous Morse who invented the telegraph code. Their father was the celebrated Dr. Franz Rummel, for many years the Court pianist in Berlin. The Conservatorium gave an operatic per formance at the Residenz Theatre on Friday after noon. That is very interesting and amusing for the public and very useful for the young singers who, in such a public rehearsal of their future career, show what sort of a debut may be expected from them hereafter. Many peccadilloes will, of course, be attributed to easily intelligible shyness, to that “stage fright” which is never so severe as at a first appearance. Nevertheless, it is hot difficult to discover talent through beginners’ ways, if and so far as it is there, since the routine*which must often supply its place later bn is at first entirely wanting. The programme on Friday consisted of the first two strongly marked Acts of Mozart’s Figaros Hochzeit, and the first two scenes from Humper dinck’s delightful Fairy Play Hansel und Gretel. The orchestra, under the direction of Herr Striegler, earned a fair reputation, and accompanied the singing and acting with a discretion and a con scientiousness that in a school orchestra demand the highest recognition. The most remarkable among the young artists on the stage was Fraulein Jiittner, whose task it was to represent two .heterogeneous roles—the Countess in Figaros Hochzeit and Hansel in Humperdinck’s fairy play. Her vocal proficiency has already attained to a considerable height, and she quite understands how to express in music what she feels. As Hansel, the young lady showed also dramatic talent and much grace of action, merits which the vocal difficulties of her first role had not allowed to come to the front. Fraulein Lewald as Gretel also gave great promise for the future, by her acting as well as by her qualities as a singer. Fraulein Drescher was a very praiseworthy Page; and Fraulein Roth, as Susanne, had her happy moments. Fraulein Muller, however, has still very much to learn, even though this was but a first step in her career, be fore she can think of appearing before the great public. The performances of the gentlemen were less gratifying than those of the ladies, who are all pupils of Frau Sohle. Herr Kipper certainly possesses a very sonorous baritone voice, but does not yet know how to use it effectively. Dramatic talent he has none. Will routine help him later? It must do so, if only the roughest points are to be smoothed down. Herr Scheder was marked out for Figaro - by the Management, not by the Muses. He is wanting in almost all the qualities required for this role; perhaps he will find another later to suit him better. Every place in the house was sold. M. N. At the Matinee in Professor Bertrand Roth’s Salon on Sunday the select audience were reminded in a signal manner that among contemporary com posers one of the most gifted is Konrad Ansorge. The refined and reserved nature of this illustrious intellect has disdained to force itself upon the public notice, and if an Ansorge-Verein had not been founded a year or two ago in Vienna, most pro bably a hard, fate would have crushed the artist’s spirit prematurely and he would never have been noticed by the public in his lifetime, though his (Continued on page 2.)
