2 THE DAILY RECORD, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 14, 1909. No. 1,120 = B E R All social and other items intended for publication in this column should be sent to the Berlin representative of The Daily Record-Miss C. M. Hook, Kalckreuth Strasse 11, W. (Tel. VI, 18,235). All business communications, relating to advertisements, etc., should be sent direct to the Dresden office:—Struve Strasse 5. Copies of The Daily Record may be obtained at Selmar Hahne’s bookstore, Charlottenburg, Joachimsthaler Strasse 44, opposite the Zoological Garden station. Considerable interest has been aroused in Ameri can musical circles hete by the announcement of a Liederabena on October 30 by Mary Forest Gan/, accompanied by Rudolph Ganz. Mrs. Mary Forest Ganz was formerly well known in the Berlin concert field as Miss Mary Forest, of New York. Her husband, Mr. Rudolph Ganz, the distinguished Swiss-American pianist, is always amused to remember that when both were appearing during the same Berlin concert season, nine years ago, Mrs. Ganz used to sing before large audiences ; while he, still unknown in Berlin, used to play before very small ones. Miss Mary Forest’s original ambition was to enter upon an operatic career, and she even went so far as to make her debut at Kroll’s at the age of eighteen. Her parents, however, raised pb- jections to the operatic stage, and Mrs. Ganz finally devoted herself entirely to the field of Livder. It was by her marriage to Mr. Ganz that Miss Forest’s concert career was temporarily interrupted, largely owing to the well known pianist’s summons to Ame rica, where little encouragement seemed to offer to a singer whose forte lay in German Liedcr. Mary Forest Ganz’s recital on October 30 will from many standpoints be one of the most interesting events of the season. Her programme alone is sufficient to attract a large audience. Besides a group of seven songs composed by her husband, some old Italian songs, and Schubert and Brahms numbers, Mrs. Ganz will present a striking musical novelty in the shape of five songs by Maurice Reval, that remarkable French composer whose works, in the opinion of Mr Rudolph Ganz, are absolutely the most advanced com positions of the twentieth century. Modern Greek folk-songs are not heard every day in a Berlin concert-hall. Mrs. Ganz, however, is offer ing them in her programme of October 30, Maurice Reval, with his genius for originality, having seized upon the idea of adapting for the concert-platform a set of Greek folk-songs of today. How they will be received by the Berlin critics is, Mr. Ganz admits, a matter for conjecture. Two at least are likely to be appreciated, he believes, on account of their charm of melody. The fate of the remaining ones, weird, odd, unique to a degree as they are, still rests with the future. One of Reval’s j>iano sonatas has recently been de dicated to Mr. Rudolph Ganz, who has done much to make known the progressive French composer’s work. In a coming piano recital in Berlin (on March 22) Mr. Ganz, after opening with a new sonata by Christian Sinding (also dedicated, by the wav, to Mr. Ganz himself) will introduce two of Reval’s piano compositions. Both of these are, apparently, truly remarkable works. “The Gallows” is the expressive name applied to the first, which, in its harrowing realism, can only be compared to a certain school of modern French literature. With the help of the programme’s written text it depicts, vividly and weird ly, the lonely gallows; the helpless corpse depending from it, animals gnawing, birds tearing at the tleshl and throughout, in the distance, the church-bell toll ing slowly, as if for the soul of the condemned But it is not only by their strange conceptions that the Reval works make their impression. Mr. Ganz him self, brilliant pianist as he is, admits that he has been obliged to almost establish a new technique, to sit down and spell out the extraordinary harmonic com binations, scales in seconds and other outlandish phenomena, with which M. Reval juggles. “And when it comes to Reval’s chords,” concludes Mr. Ganz - “why, I have to eat Force to prepare for them !” A programme of songs .by Brahms, Strauss, and Mr. Nevin was rendered last Saturday evening at the Mozart Saal by Herr Kirchhoff, a tenor of the Royal Opera House, the occasion being a Wohl- tatigkeitsfest for the benefit of the German Temper ance League. Two illustrated lectures will be given at the Ame rican Woman’s Club on October 15 and October 21 at 8 o’clock. Price, 1 mark each. Miss Koetggen is the lecturer, her subject being “Sketches in the East.” Miss Bertha Brinker, of Philadelphia, who studied in Berlin two years ago with Mr. Francis Madeunan of the Royal Opera, made her first appearance in opera on October 3, at Florence, Italy, singing tlu* role of Azucena in “II Trovatore ” Another American girl well known in Berlin has lately made her debut in the role of Azucena. Miss Alice Sovereign, of Rockford, Illinois, opened as Azucem at the opera house in Posen on Thursday night, and repeated her presentation last Monday. Mr. Francis Maclennan, the well known American tenor of the Berlin Royal Opera, has just scored conspicuous success as a teacher of the vocal art. Herr Jotef Schoeffel, a young Bavarian lyric tenor L | N T wo-roomed furnished apartments to rent; kitchen, bath, steam- heat, hot water. Inquire ot: Mrs. Lash, Bamberger Strasse 38.

Master Jack Nevin, the young son of Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Nevin, has just returned to school in Weimar after spending the Michaelmas holidays with his p,*- lents, at Pension Belmont. The Berlin Photographic Company has arranged to supply Dr. Babcock with large copies of master pieces in other European galleries when such mev be needed in connection with his lecture on Painting in the Kaiser Friedrich Museum.

(Continued.) A Ministerial Council was held at Madrid on Tues day night, when the sentence of death passed on Senor Ferrer by the Court Martial at Barcelona was discussed. It was decided by a majority that no reprieve should be granted, and the sentence was conirmed in a telegraphic despatch to Barcelona. The Parisian press yesterday morning reported from Barcelona that Ferrer’s execution was to take place in the forenoon. One of the papers had requested its correspondent to telegraph details of the im pression created at Madrid by the sentence. The editor subsequently received an answer to the effect that the strict censorship maintained over all des patches leaving Spain absolutely prohibited the carry ing-out of these instructions.—On Tuesday evening a great public open-air demonstration was held at Rome to protest against Senor Ferrer’s sentence of death. Hundreds of labourers took part in the meet ing, and owing to the absence of motormen and drivers the street-cars and public vehicles were com pelled to temporarily cease running. The Age nee Havas publishes the following tele gram ftom Perpignan: The Spanish censorship re garding all messages and publications relating to the Ferrer case is being administered with extreme ri gidity. In spite of this, however, news has been re ceived of the conveyance of Senor Ferrer to the for tress of Montjuich, where the sentence will be car ried into effect. Apart from the condemnation of Ferrer, there is no authentic news, and it cannot be confirmed whether his counsel at the trial has been arrested, as was reported. Not only in Rome, but in all Italy, according to later telegrams, demonstrations in favour of Senor Ferier are taking place. At Milan, Cortona, and Ver.-na on Tuesday great popular meetings to pro test against the Spanish reformer’s condemnation were held, while smaller meetings took place at Bologna, (ivnoa Perugia, and Florence.—A noisv demonstra tion was held in front of the Spanish Consulate at Amsterdam on Tuesday night, when loud protests against the treatemnt of Ferrer were raised The police dispersed the manifestants. Befote going to press last evening the following despatch arrived:— Senor Ferrer was executed at 9 o’clock this (Wed nesday) morning in the fortress of Montjuich. He was conducted to the rear of the fortress, blind-fold ed, and then shot dead by a platoon of riflemen. Senor Ferrer had been conveyed to the chapel of the fortress on Tuesday night. He demanded an inter- \ iew with his counsel, who remained several hours with the condemned man. Ferrer appeared perfectly calm. Only once during the conversation with his lawyer did he become excited. Extensive preciu- tionarv measures were taken by the authorities. In the neighbourhood of the fortress and on th» hill 40 or 50 people managed to assemble, however, but no demonstration was made. A detachment of rihe- men were entrusted with the carrying-out of the execution. Two monks attended Senor Ferrer just before the fatal volley was tired, but he refused to accept the last sacrament. According to a Vienna telegram dated yesterday, an English criminal named Daniel Delaney, alias David Maloney, who is suspected of complicity in the robbery of the post-office on the Minoriten Platz, has beer arrested at New York by the police authori ties. who had been advised by cable from Austria of his pending arrival. The bomb outrages directed against Messrs. Ham- mar and Sjoholm (says a Stockholm telegram) are now attributed to a certain Martin Ekenberg, an en gineer who operates a laboratory in London. Eken berg was a personal acquaintance of the two direc tors, and against whom they were engaged in trade rivalry. Ekenberg had studied considerably in Sweden and at foreign universities. In 1893 he was appointed Doctor of Philosophy by the University of Konigs- berg. AMERICAN AND CANADIAN MAILS. We have received the following letter from a Leipzig reader:— To the Editor of The Daii.y Record. Your standing announcement below your “Mail News” is important to Canadians and ambiguous. Arv we to understand that Canada is included in the 10- ptennig rate “011 letters despatched to America by steamers sailing from German ports”? The United States of America is certainly a cumbersome name, and, since the establishment of the South American Republics, not more correct geographically than the simpler term “America.” Certainly if “America” were generally accepted in place of the longer term it would be much better than “U.S.A.,” which might mean United States Army, or anything else. In your “Latest Mail News” you use the names “Canada” and “the United States,” by which I infer that America is employed inadvisedly. I ask you to reconsider the advice you give to send letters destined for Canada by one of the New York steamers instead of direct. I have before me in your list of vessels per New York these three—the Kaiser Wilhelm II., and Oceanic, according to your list botn eight-dav boats, and the Cincinnati, a 13-day boat. It would probably be one or two days more before the Canadian mails would be distributed in Montreal or Toronto. I am sure that letters for Canada would reach their destination in from two to four or more days earlier if sent direct by the weekly Canadian mail boat from Liverpool, which ever it might be, sailing direct to Montreal or Quebec in summer and calling at Ri- mouski to deliver the mails; or in winter delivering the mails at Halifax, N.S. I have crossed in these steamers several times, and in no case would the mails have been delivered in Montreal in less than si yen days from sailing. I think it would no* be far wrong to assume th^t the average mails would be delivered in New York earlier if sent via Canada. Let me suggest that in place of the present mail notice, under the heading of “Canada” you give the
