No. 896. THE DAILY RECORD, WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 20, 1909. □I DRESDEN Prince Ernst of Sachsen-Weimar-Eisenach died at noon yesterday in the sanatorium of Neuwittelsbach, near Munich. Many friends in Dresden will hear with regret of the death on Sunday last of the Rev. Professor D. W. Simon, who for some time past has been resident in this city. Dr. Simon held the rank of Emeritus Principal of the Yorkshire United Indepen dent College, Bradford, since his resignation of the active duties of Principal and Professor of Systematic Theology in 1907. In his work of Theological Lec turer, Dr. Simon was especially well fitted by his training first at the Lancashire Independent College, Manchester, and later at the University of Halle, where he gained the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. In recognition of his eminent scholarship the Ho norary Degree of Doctor of Divinity was also con ferred upon him by the University of Edinburgh. He was a man of massive learning and was distin guished by his competence as a German scholar, a language which was to him interchangeable with his mother tongue. After his college career termi nated he spent some years in Berlin, where he acted as Director of the British and Foreign Bible Society and was associated with others in the founding of the cabmens’ mission, and in the establishment and extension of German Sunday schools. He was al lied with the Fatherland by marriage, his wife being a direct descendant of the old German family of Chemnitz, one of whom was the famous theologian Martin Chemnitz (died 1586), who was Superinten dent of the chief church in Braunschweig, where his memorial tablet bears the inscription “No Chemnitz, no Luther,” the significance of which is that without Martin Chemnitz the Reformation would have come to naught. With this adequate equipment Dr. Simon was called to be Professor and Principal at the Springhill Theological College, Birmingham. Previ ous to the removal of this foundation to Mansfield College, Oxford, he had undertaken the Principalship of the Edinburgh Theological Hall, from which po sition he became Principal of the Yorkshire United College. Dr. Simon’s knowledge of German literature, par ticularly in the realms of philosophy and theology, was unsurpassed by any British scholar, and no one was better equipped for the task, or more acute, in the prosecution of the duty, of investigating the extremer conclusions of German professors and writers. While himself fully abreast of modern re search and at all times ready to receive and to assi milate well-founded conclusions of theological science, he yet was able to do much to guide the thought of the time along safer and saner paths. As a writer he is well known, his principal works being: “The Redemption of Man,” “The Bible an outgrowth of . Theocratic Literature,” “Bible Problems,” and “Twice Born”—a volume of pulpit discourses. He was also in much demand as a translator of German theolo gians, among his wiork in this being: Stahlin’s cri tique of Kant, Lotze, and Ritschl, and the two vo lumes of Domer’s “Person of Christ,” one of which he translated and to both of which he contributed valuable critical notes. He wrote the article on Justi fication in Hasting’s Bible Dictionary and was a frequent contributor to English and American theolo gical journals. During his comparatively brief stay in Dresden he was a worshipper at the Scots Church, and ren dered invaluable service to the congregation by undertaking its pulpit duties for some months dur ing the recent interregnum. Jan Kubfelik appeared on Monday evening, after two years’ absence, to add fresh fuel to the fire of the re putation he'enjoys among his Dresden admirers. He has done so; his pale face surrounded by splendid black hair contributing, perhaps, no less to his success than his brilliant violin-playing. He is still what he was—the “wonder-man,” with the sweet tone and the even but by no means unique execution; the “Ratcatcher” who in fatuates female hearts by his sweet singing. Regarded from a musical point of view, he has not improved at all, has not become deeper. He plays—no matter what. It is always the charming tone and the smooth execution, always Herr Kubelik, that cajoles the public. He knows beforehand how to catch his audience. If one observes him closely, one knows his thoughts. His countenance betrays him: “Pay attention! now you will again be carried away.” And he is right in his reckoning; the audience is carried away, and applauds rapturously. Yes, it is a rare instance of success, and the riddle of his secrets Illustrated lectures on Art History; Study visits to the Art Galleries; For outlines and "itineraries apply to Miss I. B.

Herr Kubelik played it as - he plays everything, with the sweet tone and the smooth execution,—played it as he played Lalo’s Spanish Rhapsody. It is indeed a matter of indifference what Herr Kubelik plays. His success is assured; the audience is jubilant. The longer Herr Kubelik played, the more the audience cheered on Monday; and when the Paganini Etudes and Hubay’s “Scene de la Czarda” had been heard, the applause became so frantic that the little pale Bohemian with the dark curly hair might have imagined himself in America, where skilful “reclame” can produce more enthusiasm than in prosaic Germany. It if. to be regretted that Herr Kubelik played without an orchestra, though with the clever pianoforte accompaniments of Herr Schwab. Thus the Concertos of Sinding and Lalo were heard in a mutilated form. But that is a matter of in difference. The chief thing remained: Herr Kubelik played. —One great merit the concert had; it made us acquainted with an unusually talented pianoforte-player, Herr Ludwig Raab, hitherto quite a stranger to Dresden. True, it was only frothy “must” that the young artist gave us; but it promised in course of time to become noble, golden wine, that will strengthen and elevate when once it is refined. The audience overwhelmed Herr Raab, too, with applause. 1 M. N. % The Leipzig police made a capture early yesterday morning under somewhat exciting circumstances. A workman named Heil, who was wanted on a charge of burglary, was traced to a house in the suburb of Kleinzschocher, in which neighbourhood he had been living by poaching. On seeing the police enter the house, Heil jumped out of a window, and attempted to escape, firing a revolver at the policeman nearest to him. He was about to fire again, when he fell, severely wounded by a shot from 1 a second policeman. He was secured and taken to hospital. -t— The guards in the city today are furnished by the 1st Grenadier regiment No. 100, whose band plays about 12.30 p.m. at the Schloss Platz.

Herr Bussel. PLOT. Don Gaston Viratos, a student, is discovered taking leave of his comrades. His money is rapidly vanishing while he is busily engaged in a flirtation with the daughter of his host, Inez, being assisted by his servant Ambrosio. Enters upon the scene Don Pinto de Fonseca, whose exceeding cor pulence arouses general amusement. He imparts to Gaston that he has come to marry a rich and noble lady, Donna Clarissa de Pacheco, whose hand has been promised him by the girl’s father out of gratitude for a service rendered by the suitor’s father. He is undecided how to proceed in the delicate matter of courtship, and Gaston thereupon offers to be his mentor. Subsequently they feast together, Don Pinto becoming the worse for wine. While his companion is lying in a stupor, Gaston steals his letter of recommendation to Donna Clarissa, and departs. The second act shows us the scene in Don Pantaleone’s ancestral hall, where he makes announcement of his daughter’s impending marriage. The lady, however, is enamoured of Don Gomez Freiros. a noble young knight, and is in despair at the prospect of a match with Pinto. Her maid Laura promises to discover a way out of the dilemma. In the third act the hail is decorated for the approaching nuptials. The servants all leave upon Don Pinto’s arrival being proclaimed, but Clarissa’s maid. Laura, hides. Gaston (the pretended suitor) now arrives and meets Don Gomez, who arouses the pretender’s sympathy by revealing his love for Clarissa. A plot is quickly arranged. Don Gomez assumes the role of Pinto, is furnished with the re commendatory letter, and introduced as the prospective bridegroom. The father is favourably impressed by his bearing, and gives consent to the union. All is thus going well when the unexpected arrival of the real Don Pinto complicates matters. His absurd antics arouse the belief that he is mad, but seeing Gaston among the guests he accuses him of treachery. The student threatens Pinto with a sword, whereupon the unhappy suitor, crying for mercy, is bundled out neck and crop. At this juncture Gaston reveals the plot. There is a general uproar; but Clarissa’s father is made to see the contrast between Pinto and Gomez, and finally, under the influence of his daughter’s pleadings, gives the couple his benediction. Gaston receives the grateful acknowledgements of Gomez for the part he has played in winning him a lovely bride. Composer: Carl Maria von Weber, born 1786, died 1826. Thursday night . . .

(With reference to this despatch see telegram on page 1.) GREAT FIRE IN MESSINA. Messina, January 19. A great fire broke out last night among the ruins along the sea front and, fanned by a strong wind, burnt furiously. Soldiers and sailors did all they could to ex tinguish the flames, but were obliged at last to confine their efforts to isolating the fire. Rome, January 19. A special edition of the Giornale d’Italia says that the fire in Messina broke out in the Pennizi Palace, perhaps the only one whose outer walls had remained standing after the earthquake. The Duke of Genoa was present during the attempts to extinguish the flames. It is be lieved that the fire had been smouldering unobserved for days, and that its outbreak was due to the strong wind.
