This party is com posed of Alex Skovgaard, the eminent Danish violinist, accompanied by Miss sc May Warner, a noted soprano, and ti( Miss Alice McClung, a pianist of rare pr ability. Newberry snould certainly to congratulate herself upon securing to this excellent company. Alex Skovgaard is the greatest viol- ed inist touring &merica today. He is a ch large and handsome man, "who draws It from his violin a big round tone, al- so ways pure and true, 'and who suc ceeds in pleasing a mixed audience ro bettEtr than most high-grade violin- an players." be The monarchs of Europe have been swayed by his melody. Twice has lie be played before the late King Christian, Jn of Denmark, at 'another time before Ne the late King Oscar, of Sweden, and Ial~ again to Hakon, the present king of K Norway. He also won the attention of Wilhelm, emperor of Germany, in 1902, when he appeared as soloist at S. the opening of the Royal Berlin Aca- co demy of Music, with the result that to twice since the emperor has, through co: Joseph Joackim, had him invited to Me play at private concerts in the Royal mi Palace in Berlin. an For the past few years he has been tic touring as the Skovgaard .Concert 4 party, where, with. the assistance of a a singer and a pianist, he himself is responsible for a programme which E proves its worth in that it keeps him fit playing every night in spite of the c travelling strain this of necessity imn- mE poses. The New York city Times says of . wi Herr Skoogaard, when he recently eu a tertained some one 'hundred and fifty m.usicians in the beautiful Fifth ave nue home of Mr. C. T. Harris, that his "art is of the self-composed and boroughly convincing kind, free from affection and to the po:nt. His techni ue is marvelous and his tone clear, Ml resolute and powerful." Every one Fe is anxiously waiting for the rare priv- to ilege of hearing Herr Skovgaard, one ,ths f the world's greatest violinists. e Newberry is indeed fortunate to ha.ve im come here. ry the A Correction. Mr. Editor: In your full and gen rally correct report of th4 proceed ngs of the recent meeting of the city ouncil is an error which I feel, in ustice both to the Southern Power :ompany and myself, that I should orrect. I know that the error is purely a misunderstanding and untin- Ch tentional on your part. The report C., says: ca: "Alderman Earhardt said that a N representative of the Southern Power. me company had told him that they would co: buy the city plant. it mattered not M what it cost, if they once secured their franchise." etc. g What I did say, or meant to say, niu was: A represen-tative of the Southern ha Power company told me that once at they secure'd the franchise submitted to to council, they would immediately on begin negotiations for the city plant.vi Then I myself added, that they would co get it regardless of what it would bu cost, etc. th. I make this correction because it is co my desi-e to be tfair. While being fix- co ed in my ideas and determined in the yo fight, I would not knowin.gly misrep- ne resent a fact to gain a point. pr Most respectfully, J1. W.
