Of course, the most elaborate programs wil be in the Catholic and Episcopal churches, and in many of the former denomination an or- chestra will add to the interest of the oc- casion. At St. Patrick's Church, where Le Prevost's Messe Solennelle will be sung, there will be a large orchestra, and this beauLiful and melodious work will be given under the direction of ProL Mains. The music at this church Is a feature of the bervices, and the prompt attack of the large chorus shows the result of careful rehearsal. This choir ban the distinction of possessing the best tenor and the beat contralto of any in the city. The reputa- tion of Mr. W. D. McFarland and Mrs. Maina are well known to all musicians. Last Sunday Mrs. Maina sang Rossini's "Fac ub Portem" in the most artistic and expressive manner. Speaking of church choirs, an old and ex- perienced director said the other day that the majority of people who sat In their pews and listened to the music little knew of the trouble that the director had with :Is force. "You must know." he added, "that the phrase 'as jealous as a church choir singer' is literally true. All choir sngers, or at least the majority of them, are jealous not only of singers in other choirs, but of their associates in their own choir. The soprano Is vexed If the tenor a r contralto has a solo, which is better or Is sung better than her own, and so with the contralto, the tenor and the bass. Then, too, singers are fractious. I refer to the soloists, for those who sing In the chorus sually do so because they belong to the church or because they think the 'Work will benefit them. The paid singer, partieularly women, think that it is not necessary to attend rehearsal, and yet it i& as necessary for them as it is for the chorus, for they must get the reading, the tempo and expression of the conductor. 'He Is the responsible party, and his word shold be law. But If there is a musie comunittee, and the members are suscept- 1bl. they are often deceiveil by the srts of a woman, and many times cause the dis- ruption of a real good choir and the depo- sitIon of a competent director. But rows will occur, I've been through this for many years, and usually have come out success- fuL. I do want to say one thing, how- ever, that the music committee or pastor who Uistens to complaints by a singer or an oraist againt the diheetor makes a big mistake. If. after Investigatlon, it is found that the directir is not competent, why, discharge hme and get another, but so long as he holds his place he sheruld he absolute in bis authority and should be upheld by the church onests. He has a reputation to maitain, he is musually depyinte ested in his work, and presumopthl hse would not make corrections in the work of singer or organist nless he believed that 4ii +~ Frst to grasp t $ First to estabit~ SThe upsetting has be S BUT, aire you paying +: Tae----s have ad duced hnto the pur +:No doubt aboutj +:No doubt about +No doubt about --LETIER THERS.

After long and careful preparation, the choir, under the direction of Mr. Charles Gannon, with Mrs. Mary Gillen, organist, rendered for the first time in this city the "Kyrie," "Sanctus," "Benedictus" and "Agnus Del" from the mass composed by Gouned In memory of Joan of Arc. The "Credo" was from Lejeal. While the palms were be- hrig distributed "Hosanna F7lo David" was sung, and at the offertory, Blederman's arrangement of Faure's 'Sion Laetare," for selo, duet gnd choru. At Immaculate Conception Church on Good Friday evening selections from Ron- ini's "Stabat Mater" will be.sung after the service of "Tenebrae." On Easter Sunday Beethoven's mass In C will be given with full orchestra. The music of this church is under the direction of Mrs. Clara B. Smith. with Mr. A. D. Mayo, organist. The English baritone, Mr. R. Watkin Mills. comes to the Columbia next Friday in a song recital. Mr. -MilB'anks a one of Etagland's foremost singers, appearing at all the leading festivals and principal con- certs. While his forte is oratorio work, for which he is noted, he Is an all around ar- tist, and all of his reoltals. touching as they do the different classes and styles of com- -osition, are artistic affairs. The Sunday Night Music Club was enter- tained by Mrs. Dr. Behrend at.er. res- derce. 1412 K street northwest, and played two movements from Mozart's twentieth Piano Concerto, with string quintet accom- paniment; the andante and minuet, from Beethoven's first symphony and Haydn's Militaire Symphony; all for four hands piano and string quartet. Mr. Frank Ge- best also played Chopin's Ballade in G minor and Raff's La Fileuse. The debut of Miss Alice Judson in the title role of "Falka" In -Philadelphia last Wednesday evening verified the expecta- tions of those who knew of her abilities. Miss Judson prepared the role in just one week, and deserved the praise which she received. The Philadelphia Enquirer al- ludes to her as "n amg a success of no small degree, both vocally and dramati- cally." and the Record says, among other things, that "Miss Judson created a de- cidedly favorable impression." It was erro- neously reported that Miss Judson would sing in the opera et the matinee here, but it was not to be expected that Manager Wolf would subject her to a test in her own city the afternoon after her Philadel- phis debut, the result of a week's hard study and rehearsal. She made the trip here with the company, however, and wit- ncused the performanee from a box. Last Wednesday evening, at St. Steph- en's Church, Columbia Heights, Mr. C. W. Ducan Allen gave the closing of a very successful series of organ recitals. Several new compositions for the organ have bee. brought forward at these recitals, notable among them being a Festal Overture, by Dr. C. W. Pearce, and Borowski's Minuet. In G, the latter being played for the first time in this country. Aspecial Palm Snay program was arranged for at St. Paul's Lutheran Church, and the music was of a very high order. The regular choir, consisting of Misses Edna Doe and Mamne Clear and Messrs. H. MacNames and B. .F. Meyers, were assisted on this ocession by Mr. N. Dmuhane Cloward, who sang at the offer- tory, the "Palms." "Want" ads. in Tha Star gay because they bring answers, Rev. John N.

As the Lenten period nars its close the crowd of people who come here to medi- tate, and, Incidentally, of course, to recruit their energies for the season of festivity which will follow easter, rapidly increases. Every Incoming train In filled with those who will make this city their ahiding place for a logr or shorter period of time. The wealthier class of patrons seems to pre- dominate, the larger hotels being the most crowded. Several beach front hostelries have every avalahfie room engaged for HEster; and for some weeks pest they have been compelled to turn guests away every Saturday, not having room for all who ap- plied for accommodations. Social functions are becoming rarer as Good Friday approaches. Open-air exer- clse, of course, Is nct forbidden. and cycling, golf on the beach, or a stroll on the board walk forms .a part of the daily routine for all. The butterfy of fashion, however, is not the only one who fnds a sojourn at this queen of resorts beneficial. The invalids are here in great numbers, and the only reason that there are not more of this class Is that as a rule they do not remain inva- lids long after their arrival. Typical April weather has prevailed dur- Ing the past week. Smiles and tears have alternated on neture's face; the smiles, however, far outnumbering the tears. The air has been soft and balmy, the showers only serving to purify the atmosphere and render it more acceplel to lungs that have breathed only the stifling, furnace- heated air of country house or ball room during the past winter. Visitors just re- turned frem Florida claim that the cli- mate here at this season is more agreeable than that of the land of flowers. Monday was the only really wet day during the week, and even then old Sol condescended to show his face at intervals. Strollers on the board walk needed only light wraps or spring overcoats to protect them from the gentle ocean sephyrs. while cyclists and golfers were glad to discard all superfluous clothing. Some of the old leaders In the city coun- cid have been compelled to take a back seat since the recent election, new men coming forward to take their places, and the change has occasioned something of a stir In that august body. The two fac- tions are known as "combine" and "anti- combine," the "antis" being largely in the majority. The turned-down leaders are sawing wood and saying nothing, quietly awaiting a favorable opportunity to re- gain their lost prestige. Whether or not the change will be a benefit to the city Ip a question yet to be decided. The new city hall will soon be an es- tablished fact. After Instituting condem- nation proceedings which were set aside on a technicality, the city fathers have agreed to pay $23,000. the price originally asked by the owners, for the old opera house lot, adjoining the city lot at Ten- nessee and Atlantic avenues. On this plot of ground the proposed new hall is to be erected. An appropriation of $80.000 has been made for the building .alone. Mrs. Manning, widow of the late Secre- tary Manning, Is among the well-known people sojourning at the Brighton. Thaddeus Norris of Philadelphia, well known in Washington, Is at the Roman with his daughter, Miss Geneva Norris. 1iarry R.

Controller Bowler of the treasury has rendered to the Secretary of War an opin- ion on a question submitted by the See- retary, "Whether, under the joint resolu- tion of April 7, IT, for the relief of suf- ferers by the overflow of the Misissippi river and its tributaries, he is authorised to purchase and distribute as part of 'the 'subsistence stores' authorized by such resolution medical and other necessary sup- plies, or whether he is limited to the pur- chase and distribution of such articles as come within the technical definition of 'subsistence stores,' as used in the army regulations." Mr. Bowler, In his opinion, said: "I have no reason to believe that Congress intend- ed by the use of the words 'subsistence stores' to confine the character of articles to be purchased and distributed under the power conferred upon you by the joint resolution to such articles as come within the definition of subsistence stores used in the army regulations. "The evident purpose f the resolution was to enable 'the = of War to furnish to the destitut sufferers from the overflowed districts supplies as would enable. persons uiW the circum- stances In which these le find 'them- selves to temporarily sul while driven from their own homes ahdlfrom -their or- dinary means of support 1 "The word 'subsistence'*4zs a general as well as a limited mea .

Holy week In the religious calendar was ushered in yesterday by one of- the dis- tinctive festivals of the Catholic and Epis- ccpalian churches, the observance of Palm Sunday. Large congregations of worship- ers thronged most of the churches. At the Church of the Epiphany last even- ing a class of forty-one persons was con- firmed by Bishop Batterlee. The bishop was assisted in the services by Dr. McKim and Rev. Mr. Wood. At the conclusion of the confirmation service Bishop Satterlee preached a sermon appropriate to the occa- sion.

Sme surprise was caused in p9Sae cirdes Saturday. wheh plumbers at work an the Poltee Court sewer found that discarded Weapons and dther articles bad cholead the sewer and endered the digging up and cleaning anecessry. There has been mere ,trouble experienced at this building because of the condition of the plumbing than there IaS at almost any other building occupied by a branch of the District government. IA the sewer the plumber found a pistol, evi- deutly a toy pistol, several penaknives and razors, and perhaps a doen keys, such as tnlght be used by a burglar. There was also parts of a- wastch and a silver chain. -as well as 2D cents in money. A case knife And a part of one that had been ground down to make a murderous weapon, a cor- pet st'eel and a number of mall articles, such as outlaws would probably carry, were also found. No one attempts to conceal the fact that theme articles were thrown in the sewer for the purpose of destroying what might be evidence agahrst them. But that prisoners should have such articles upon them when Placed behind the bars is considered a re- fectlon on members of the police depart- ment, for the manual provides: "Each person who may be locked up at any station shall frst be thoroughly searched by the officer who brings him in, and all weapons and articles of property ol money found in his possession shall be taken by the station keeper, who siaUn Make a detailed descriptive list of the same, and if all or any part thereof be net wanted as evidence in court such as may not be se required shall be returned to the prisoner upon his discharge, taking receint therefor." Had this rule been complied with in the various police stations no such weapons and other articles would have been found. In addition to these weapoas and articles kupposed to be the proceeds of crime, there was a bottle of taudanub. This, too, had been left on some prisoner when he was ent from a police station to the court. I'here are some prisoners who use opiates pad others who express a desire to end their lives when they get In trouble, but the owner of this particular bottle had no desire to do the latter, for he qr she was oniy too glad )o get rid ot it, as is shown by the fnding of It In the sewer. Some of the articles have been turned over to the police by the plumber, as they may play a prominent part in some robbery. and when the work of cleaning the sewer Is finished all the articles thus found will be turned over. The finding of the articles may lead to an Investigation by the police officials, because of the alleged negligence on the part of the policemen In the various precincts. SENTEECE MAY -B COMMUTED. Counsel fee Loa Fears.. to Appeal to the President. Messrs. Andrew Y. Bradley and Thou. C. Taylor. counsel for Lum Fearson. sen- tenoed to be hanged the 30th of this month for the murder last August of John Ford, will in a day or two file with the President a petition for a commutation of sentence. Fearson. a man nearly seventy years of age, shot and killed Ford. a young man of about nineteen or twenty years of age, In Georgetown early last August, Ford dying a day or so later. Fearson. who is a well- known character in police circles, and Ford had previously quarreled over a woman. who is said to have lived with Fearson. The evening of the day on which the shoot- ing occurred Ford called at Fearson's house, and Fearson shot him from an up- per window of the house. At the trial. which took place last fall before Judge Cole, Pearson claimed that he shot in self- defense, but the government showed that he had previously threatened to kilt Ford, and that bge shot him without cause or justification. The Court of Appeals afrm- er the judgment of the trial court last week. It Is understood that the condemned man's counsel will base the appeal for a commutation of the death sentence to one of life Imprisonment on the ground of the man's advanced age. They will also sub- mit, it is said. that If the crime of murder had been graded at the time of the trial the jury would not have voted for the death penalty. It Is understood that Judge Cole and ex-District Attorney Birney, who prosecuted Fearson, will recommend a com- motation of the sentence, and it is not be- lieved that District Attorney Davis will ob- ject to such action on the President's part.

Most of the church choirs are preparingfor their Easter music, and additional re-hearsals are being held. Of course, themost elaborate programs wil be in theCatholic and Episcopal churches, and inmany of the former denomination an or-chestra will add to the interest of the oc-casion. At St. Patrick's Church, whereLe Prevost's Messe Solennelle will be sung,there will be a large orchestra, and thisbeauLiful and melodious work will be givenunder the direction of ProL Mains. Themusic at this church Is a feature of thebervices, and the prompt attack of thelarge chorus shows the result of carefulrehearsal. This choir ban the distinctionof possessing the best tenor and the beatcontralto of any in the city. The reputa-tion of Mr. W. D. McFarland and Mrs.Maina are well known to all musicians.Last Sunday Mrs. Maina sang Rossini's"Fac ub Portem" in the most artistic andexpressive manner.Speaking of church choirs, an old and ex-

perienced director said the other day thatthe majority of people who sat In theirpews and listened to the music little knewof the trouble that the director had with

:Is force. "You must know." he added,"that the phrase 'as jealous as a churchchoir singer' is literally true. All choirsngers, or at least the majority of them,are jealous not only of singers in otherchoirs, but of their associates in their ownchoir. The soprano Is vexed If the tenora r contralto has a solo, which is better orIs sung better than her own, and so withthe contralto, the tenor and the bass. Then,too, singers are fractious. I refer to thesoloists, for those who sing In the chorussually do so because they belong to the

church or because they think the 'Workwill benefit them. The paid singer,partieularly women, think that it is notnecessary to attend rehearsal, and yet iti& as necessary for them as it is for thechorus, for they must get the reading, thetempo and expression of the conductor.'He Is the responsible party, and his wordshold be law. But If there is a musiecomunittee, and the members are suscept-1bl. they are often deceiveil by the srts ofa woman, and many times cause the dis-ruption of a real good choir and the depo-sitIon of a competent director. But rowswill occur, I've been through this for manyyears, and usually have come out success-fuL. I do want to say one thing, how-ever, that the music committee or pastorwho Uistens to complaints by a singer or anoraist againt the diheetor makes a bigmistake. If. after Investigatlon, it is foundthat the directir is not competent, why,discharge hme and get another, but so longas he holds his place he sheruld he absolutein bis authority and should be upheld bythe church onests. He has a reputationto maitain, he is musually depyinteested in his work, and presumopthl hsewould not make corrections in the work ofsinger or organist nless he believed that

they were necessary to a perfect perform-ance of the work under rehearsal."In St. Stephen's Church a fine musical

program was presented at high massyesterday, Palm Sunday. After longand careful preparation, the choir, underthe direction of Mr. Charles Gannon, withMrs. Mary Gillen, organist, renderedfor the first time in this city the "Kyrie,""Sanctus," "Benedictus" and "Agnus Del"from the mass composed by Gouned Inmemory of Joan of Arc. The "Credo" wasfrom Lejeal.

Good Friday evening selections from Ron-ini's "Stabat Mater" will be.sung after theservice of "Tenebrae." On Easter SundayBeethoven's mass In C will be given withfull orchestra. The music of this churchis under the direction of Mrs. Clara B.Smith. with Mr. A. D. Mayo, organist.The English baritone, Mr. R. Watkin

Mills. comes to the Columbia next Fridayin a song recital. Mr. -MilB'anks a one ofEtagland's foremost singers, appearing atall the leading festivals and principal con-certs. While his forte is oratorio work, forwhich he is noted, he Is an all around ar-tist, and all of his reoltals. touching as theydo the different classes and styles of com--osition, are artistic affairs.The Sunday Night Music Club was enter-

tained by Mrs. Dr. Behrend at.er. res-derce. 1412 K street northwest, and playedtwo movements from Mozart's twentiethPiano Concerto, with string quintet accom-paniment; the andante and minuet, fromBeethoven's first symphony and Haydn'sMilitaire Symphony; all for four handspiano and string quartet. Mr. Frank Ge-best also played Chopin's Ballade in Gminor and Raff's La Fileuse.The debut of Miss Alice Judson in the

title role of "Falka" In -Philadelphia lastWednesday evening verified the expecta-tions of those who knew of her abilities.Miss Judson prepared the role in just oneweek, and deserved the praise which shereceived. The Philadelphia Enquirer al-ludes to her as "namg a success of nosmall degree, both vocally and dramati-cally." and the Record says, among otherthings, that "Miss Judson created a de-cidedly favorable impression." It was erro-neously reported that Miss Judson wouldsing in the opera et the matinee here, butit was not to be expected that ManagerWolf would subject her to a test in herown city the afternoon after her Philadel-phis debut, the result of a week's hardstudy and rehearsal. She made the triphere with the company, however, and wit-ncused the performanee from a box.Last Wednesday evening, at St. Steph-en's Church, Columbia Heights, Mr. C. W.

Ducan Allen gave the closing of a verysuccessful series of organ recitals. Severalnew compositions for the organ have bee.brought forward at these recitals, notableamong them being a Festal Overture, byDr. C. W. Pearce, and Borowski's Minuet.In G, the latter being played for the firsttime in this country.

Aspecial Palm Snay program wasarranged for at St. Paul's LutheranChurch, and the music was of a veryhigh order. The regular choir, consistingof Misses Edna Doe and Mamne Clear andMessrs. H.

As the Lenten period nars its close thecrowd of people who come here to medi-tate, and, Incidentally, of course, to recruittheir energies for the season of festivitywhich will follow easter, rapidly increases.Every Incoming train In filled with thosewho will make this city their ahiding placefor a logr or shorter period of time. Thewealthier class of patrons seems to pre-dominate, the larger hotels being the mostcrowded. Several beach front hostelrieshave every avalahfie room engaged forHEster; and for some weeks pest they havebeen compelled to turn guests away everySaturday, not having room for all who ap-plied for accommodations.Social functions are becoming rarer as

Good Friday approaches. Open-air exer-clse, of course, Is nct forbidden. andcycling, golf on the beach, or a stroll onthe board walk forms .a part of the dailyroutine for all.The butterfy of fashion, however, is not

the only one who fnds a sojourn at thisqueen of resorts beneficial. The invalidsare here in great numbers, and the onlyreason that there are not more of this classIs that as a rule they do not remain inva-lids long after their arrival.Typical April weather has prevailed dur-

Ing the past week. Smiles and tears havealternated on neture's face; the smiles,however, far outnumbering the tears. Theair has been soft and balmy, the showersonly serving to purify the atmosphere andrender it more acceplel to lungs thathave breathed only the stifling, furnace-heated air of country house or ball roomduring the past winter. Visitors just re-turned frem Florida claim that the cli-mate here at this season is more agreeablethan that of the land of flowers. Mondaywas the only really wet day during theweek, and even then old Sol condescendedto show his face at intervals. Strollers onthe board walk needed only light wraps orspring overcoats to protect them from thegentle ocean sephyrs. while cyclists andgolfers were glad to discard all superfluousclothing.Some of the old leaders In the city coun-

cid have been compelled to take a backseat since the recent election, new mencoming forward to take their places, andthe change has occasioned something of astir In that august body. The two fac-tions are known as "combine" and "anti-combine," the "antis" being largely inthe majority. The turned-down leaders aresawing wood and saying nothing, quietlyawaiting a favorable opportunity to re-gain their lost prestige. Whether or notthe change will be a benefit to the city Ipa question yet to be decided.The new city hall will soon be an es-

tablished fact. After Instituting condem-nation proceedings which were set asideon a technicality, the city fathers haveagreed to pay $23,000. the price originallyasked by the owners, for the old operahouse lot, adjoining the city lot at Ten-nessee and Atlantic avenues. On thisplot of ground the proposed new hall isto be erected. An appropriation of $80.000has been made for the building .alone.Mrs. Manning, widow of the late Secre-

Controller Bowler of the treasury hasrendered to the Secretary of War an opin-ion on a question submitted by the See-retary, "Whether, under the joint resolu-tion of April 7, IT, for the relief of suf-ferers by the overflow of the Misissippiriver and its tributaries, he is authorisedto purchase and distribute as part of 'the'subsistence stores' authorized by suchresolution medical and other necessary sup-plies, or whether he is limited to the pur-chase and distribution of such articles ascome within the technical definition of'subsistence stores,' as used in the armyregulations."Mr. Bowler, In his opinion, said: "I have

no reason to believe that Congress intend-ed by the use of the words 'subsistencestores' to confine the character of articlesto be purchased and distributed under thepower conferred upon you by the jointresolution to such articles as come withinthe definition of subsistence stores used inthe army regulations."The evident purpose f the resolution

was to enable 'the = of War tofurnish to the destitut sufferers fromthe overflowed districts supplies aswould enable. persons uiW the circum-stances In which these le find 'them-selves to temporarily sul while drivenfrom their own homes ahdlfrom -their or-dinary means of support 1

A case knifeAnd a part of one that had been grounddown to make a murderous weapon, a cor-pet st'eel and a number of mall articles,such as outlaws would probably carry, werealso found.No one attempts to conceal the fact thattheme articles were thrown in the sewer forthe purpose of destroying what might beevidence agahrst them. But that prisonersshould have such articles upon them whenPlaced behind the bars is considered a re-fectlon on members of the police depart-ment, for the manual provides:"Each person who may be locked up atany station shall frst be thoroughlysearched by the officer who brings himin, and all weapons and articles of propertyol money found in his possession shallbe taken by the station keeper, who siaUn

Make a detailed descriptive list of thesame, and if all or any part thereof benet wanted as evidence in court such asmay not be se required shall be returnedto the prisoner upon his discharge, takingreceint therefor."Had this rule been complied with in the

various police stations no such weaponsand other articles would have been found.In addition to these weapoas and articleskupposed to be the proceeds of crime, therewas a bottle of taudanub. This, too, hadbeen left on some prisoner when he wasent from a police station to the court.I'here are some prisoners who use opiatespad others who express a desire to endtheir lives when they get In trouble, butthe owner of this particular bottle had nodesire to do the latter, for he qr she wasoniy too glad )o get rid ot it, as is shownby the fnding of It In the sewer. Someof the articles have been turned over tothe police by the plumber, as they mayplay a prominent part in some robbery. andwhen the work of cleaning the sewer Isfinished all the articles thus found will beturned over. The finding of the articlesmay lead to an Investigation by the policeofficials, because of the alleged negligenceon the part of the policemen In the variousprecincts.

SENTEECE MAY -B COMMUTED.

Counsel fee Loa Fears.. to Appealto the President.

Messrs. Andrew Y. Bradley and Thou. C.Taylor. counsel for Lum Fearson. sen-tenoed to be hanged the 30th of this monthfor the murder last August of John Ford,will in a day or two file with the Presidenta petition for a commutation of sentence.Fearson. a man nearly seventy years of

age, shot and killed Ford. a young man ofabout nineteen or twenty years of age, InGeorgetown early last August, Ford dyinga day or so later. Fearson. who is a well-known character in police circles, and Fordhad previously quarreled over a woman.who is said to have lived with Fearson.The evening of the day on which the shoot-ing occurred Ford called at Fearson'shouse, and Fearson shot him from an up-per window of the house. At the trial.which took place last fall before JudgeCole, Pearson claimed that he shot in self-defense, but the government showed thathe had previously threatened to kilt Ford,and that bge shot him without cause orjustification. The Court of Appeals afrm-er the judgment of the trial court lastweek.It Is understood that the condemned

man's counsel will base the appeal for acommutation of the death sentence to oneof life Imprisonment on the ground of theman's advanced age. They will also sub-mit, it is said. that If the crime of murderhad been graded at the time of the trialthe jury would not have voted for thedeath penalty. It Is understood that JudgeCole and ex-District Attorney Birney, whoprosecuted Fearson, will recommend a com-motation of the sentence, and it is not be-lieved that District Attorney Davis will ob-ject to such action on the President's part.
