Quartet has so far adhered to titese principles, and because of this fact alone it is entitled to comsiderable pralse. The novelty at Friday's concert was the Cesar Frank plano quintet in F minor. This Is a very ambitious piece of work. Classic In its character and of a very gomber quality, it becomes somewhat te- dlous to the layman. The first mov ment especially is very long-winded, last- ing almost twenty minutes. I am one of those unfortunate musical enthusiasts who llke to tell the truth, and in order to adhere to this bad habit of mine I must confess that the Frank quintet bores me. It 1s all very true that the music is exquisite and of a very good quality, but there is absolutely nothing interesting In ft. Now and then a little thunder awakens you from your slumber but otherwise it Is absolutely devoid of brilllancy. The quartet gave it an ex- cellent reading. paying strict attention to interpretation, and Otto Bendix, with his fine touch and fluent technic, exe- cuted the piano part with the judgment of the mature musician.

POPULAR STUDIES Dr. Edwa L"r H —Il":‘ « Contributors to course W. Mable, Dr. Albert §. Cook Scudder and othy V. SHAKESPEARE AS A TRAGIC| POET. ‘ Shakespeare's tragedies are profoundly | religious, as all true tragedy must ever | be. Aristotle long ago, working upon t 1asterpleces of Greek tragic art, declared the ends of tragedy to be the excl of pity and fear In the speciator & consequent moral T has well pointed ov i passion) carries “tragie fear. feeling that suffers bey or less degree a v over which he Justice” (or ide: tic of eplc poetry gets his deserts, the good b the wicked confounded, is fundamentally opposed to t The satisfaction men feel in th ment of the wrongdoer leaves no pla compassion, uniess perchance happens In these latter days. we shif point of view and think of him as an No doubt view has introduced much con the critical judgments of our time; but we should not lose sight of the principle that | we pity only when we recognize real! or fancled Injustice. In tragedy, then, we are brought face to face with the most profound mystery of | our mortal state, the prevalence of un- merited suffering. Men seek and have sought In vain to pry into this mystery. | A whole system of theology has been built up on the assumption that we suffer for | WILLIAM CHARLES MACREADY bles and by contemporaries was worthily kept alive by Willlam Charles Macre: The torch lit by Garrick, by the Kem! a_cultivated and conscientiou actor, who, of more than forty years (i81i~51), assumed every great part In Shakes- pearean tragedy. ~Although Macread: Kemble or the Intense passion of Shakespeare the whole-hearted suffray ney Lee. SHAKESPEARE. w the to bring every deavor Desdemona. be she marries her fath a man race and prev; questl *husband; cau Kean and hi utterly subv the gins of a first parent; but whatever| explanation may be attempted, the awful [ | fact remains that men everywhere suffer for what they are not individually blame. Religion has its home in this mys- tery. This mystery becomes a touchstone by which meén are separated into two great classes. One man, with sublime faith, submits himself to the divine ore —“let come on me what will * * Though He slay me; yet will I trust in Him while another stands In open re- bellion or sullen silence. In this differ- ence, a mystery in itself, lies the whole secret of the religious attitude of men We somehow think of the attitude of Job as the nobler of the two. Compassion for the sorrows of men and submission to the divine will are the highest reaches of the human spirit; and it is precisely these ef fects that Aristotle saw in the master- pleces of Greek tragedy. In Sophocles and Aeschylus we find the noblest concep- tions of the Greek religion. Fall not in aught that is right, Seeing great and terrible deaths, Many and strange forms of woe, And nothing where Zeus is not. But Shakespeare fneeded no Greek to re- veal to him these primal laws of our be- ing. More than once the stricken deer had crossed his path. Full oft in the jostiing life of the capital had he seen r Captive good attending captain i1l { He had himself borne the full share of “the whips and scorns of time,” but he had not lost a sense of the beauty of in nocence and courage and personal devo- tion. And so out of his own full heart he shows us all these with a realism at times overwhelming, and we weep over the sorrows of men and stand awesiricken in the presence of the calamities that | overtake and destroy persons of noble | strain. Our hearts are bowed, our pride repressed. As we see Hamlet approach- ing with fainting heart his last encounter | “1f it be now, 'tis not | to come; if It be not to come, it will be | now: if it be not now, yet it ‘will come; the readiness is all.” And In this cry we seem to hear the very voice of the mighty | poet himself—"the readiness is all.”" Owing to the absence of authentic de-| tails as to Shakespeare's life and char ter the question has been much mooted &s to how far his plays furnish materials | for a history of his moods and of his con- victions. On this point there can never b3 entire agreement. And yet, admitting as we do the danger and the folly of dog: matizing on these matters, a careiul = 2 o amination of the plays in the order their production (an order now weil es- tablished for the most part) makes It dif- | ficult to resist the conclusion that between | the ages of % and 4 Shakespeare passed through a period of deep spiritual an- guish. To this period belong the great tragedies. from “Jullus Ca ' to olanus,” and the biting satirical ¢ A comparison of these with the latest group, written probably after his return | to Stratford, reveals to us a man wno | fought his way through the valley of I)e-‘ spond to the serene atmosphere of the | heights beyond. All pains the immortal spirit must endure. All weakness which impairs. all griefs which bow, Find their sole speech in that victorious brow. | The central characteristic of every real drama is conflict. On the one hand there | must be -fermn (or perso. to be en- tangled, and over against these stands the entangling agency. In the first group fs found the hero, or heroine, or both, che center of our Interest and sympathy; on the other e we find the hostile agency, | or agencies, natural or supernatural, seck- | ing to thwart or destroy. In tragedy (his conflict must be of such & kind that the | hero can find no escape from the toils. Step by step we see him crowded to the brink where he is to be finally enguifed As before indicated, the confl must be unequal from the start in order that the proper ends of tragedy may be rea). ized—compassion and religlous awe, The character and condition of the hero must be such that we can feel kinship with him in his sorr: and defeat, can see In the fatal st the ruin of a typical hu- man life, a ruln to which we ourseives might be subject if thus m 'steriously be- set.
