Mendelssohn and some other composer
have asked tho vexed question, "Oh,
wert thou in tho Cauld Blast?" If they
had been at St. Paul's last evening anrnt
the eighth annual concert ef the Ne

to the Old Testament. For it was warm,

it was an enjojabi'" occasion, b:cause

Susie Boyle, who did some of tha smooth

pianist," Harry Briggs. Harry seemed
to cat.h on with the audience immensely
and, to his credit be it said, he ret-joinied
to encores in a very nndest and unpre
tentious manner. A praiseworthy feat
uio of nearly all the piano numbers was
fingering and pedahrg in a manner in
which the mechanism of the. instru
ment was rarely ever in evidence to the
ear.
