C, BSHOP OF LR | T0 SPEAK I ITY Right Rev. R. E. Campbell to Address Diocese Auxiliary November 12. Right Rev. Robert Erskine Campbell, D. D, missionary Bishop of Liberia, West_Africa, will address a meeting of the Woman's Auxiliary of the diocese | of Washington in the Church of the Epiphany, Episcopal, Wednesday morn- ing, November 12, at 10:30 o'clock. Bishop Campbell but recently has ar- the Republic of Liberia, and will be in attendance also on a meeting of the House of Bishops of the Episcopal Church, which will be held in Wash- ington on the following day, November 13, to elect a successor to the presiding bishop of the church in place of Dr. tober 3 at_Atlantic City, N. J. Bishop Campbell's discourse will deal wholly with conditions in that far-off district among the people of the little Negro republic, which was founded through American efforts almost a cen- tury ago: and, in addition, to three or four millions of natives who inhabit the jungle 50 miles in the interior. Liberia is a country without railroads and even without any roads at all, it is inted out. The transition is quick rom the coast towns of Cape Mount and Cape Palmas, where enlightened civilization prevails, to the region back in the bush where the aborigines live in villages of thatched huts and witch- craft and sorcery are the only religions known to them. Bishop Campbell makes his way among them along trails through the jungle, which are blazed for him by natives, who go ahead of the carriers forced to travel. I MUSIC l VLADIMIR HOROWITZ RECITAL. The first formal afternoon recital of the season 1829-30 was given at Poli’s Theater yesterday afternoon under the auspices of Mrs. Wilson-Greene, when Viadimir Horowits, the brilliant young Russian pianist, presented a remark- ably fine planistic program. The auaience, which practically filled the theater, included many of the pianists in. Washington, and they showed gen- erally keen appreciation of the art that 15 the developed gift of the young Rus- sian. Horowitz not only has'a naturally beautiful touch and individuality of capacity to give poised, intelligent elo- quence to every note he strikes. - Brahms “Sonata in F minor, opus 5" which formed the first half of his pro- am, was a revelation of technical ef- ciency as well as an insight into the varied poetic moods of the five parts of this composition.

There is sheer delight in the r?p!mz quality of this pianist's runs and the smoothness of his glis- sandos. He received a veritable ovation at the conclusion of the sonata. The impressionistic gayety of De- bussy’s “L'Isle Joyeuse” was interest- ingly contrasted with two fascinatin works by Prokofieff, an unsentimental “Gavotte,” and “Suggestions Diabol- iques,” which gives a glimpse of the well known jest quality of this Rus- sian_composer. . Mr. Horowits gives the romantic quality to Chopin. without ‘oversenti- mentalizing it. The “Polonaise in C sharp minor” was done in a way that showed a polonaiss could really be “in- terpreted,” instead of just being so many notes played very loudly. The “Impromptu in A flat major” was given equally individual treatment and a de- lightful *“Mazurka in F minor” was substituted for the *Nocturne in G minor” that was listed. The familiar “Valse Brillants” completed the group. The encores were Mendelssohn's “Spin- Qvu.;! Song,” and Chopin’s “Minute tz.’ In the last group was Lisst's rarely heard “Au Lac de Wallenstadt,” and the difficulties of Dohnanyi’s “Capriccio in F minor” were given dazzling interpreta- tion. In response to applause, Mr. Horo- witz played his own arrangement of the music of Bizet's “Carmen” and an “Etude” of Liszt's that he found last Summer in the Budapest Museum and which he studied and prepared for his prc‘re‘ms this Winter. This was said to the first performance of this etude in America. It will be played in New York later.
