Toscanlui.

As usual. Miss Farrar was seen in the title role and her Impersonation of the little Japanese wife of the American naval officer was as charming as Uer singing was satisfying. Mr. Martin appeared again as Lieutenant Pinkerton and Mr. Seoul was the Sbarp-less.

The second performance of Pergolesi's "fitabat Mater" was given last night by the women's chorus of St. Peter's Church. The chorus was assisted by a string quartet, K. A. McAllister, tenor; V.

Mr. McAllister has a well-trained and sympathetic voice and singB with understanding. His singing of the "Cujus- Animaui" was notably good. Mr. Delano, who recently returned from Germany, where he was a member of the Coburg Royal Opera, was especially effective In an added number from Rossini'n "Stabat Mater," the "Pro Peccatls." His voice is even and well produced and he possesses breadth of style, good diction and, above aiJ, sincerity.

A large and appreciative audience was In attendance. Roslni's "Stabat Mater." which Is to be sung at Sts. Peter ami Paul's Church, Wythe "avenue and South Third street, of which the Rev. William B.

This great aria Is given by Tet-razzlnl, Caruso, Aniato, Journet, Jacoby and Bada. There are also several solos by Caruso, chief among them being a lovely air in French from Massenet's "Manon." Amato gives tho difficult "Alllo" song from "Cavalleria," and, with Journet and chorus, the Sword Scene from "Faust." Gadski, Schumnnn-Heink and Clement are also represented lu the list nnd Cantor Sirota of the Warsaw Synagogue gives four records In Hebrew.

i An Interesting meeting of the Fifteen-Year Club of the Mutual Lite Insurance Company, was held yesterday afternoon In the board room of the company at 31 Nassau street, Manhattan, This club Is composed of those who have been connected with the Mutual for Dfteen years or more, and includes many prominent men. of both Brooklyn and Manhattan, quite a few of whom attended yesterday's symposium. Charles A. Peahody, the president of the club, occupied the chair during the afternoon. In keeping with the custom of having well person address the members.

General James Harris Wilson of Civil War fame, gave a very entertaining talk covering several of his personal reminiscences of the war. He was well acquainted with Abraham Lincoln before and after the latter's election to the Presidency, and consequently was able to tell his hearers many interesting facts about the great liberator's life, unknown to all but his Intimate friends. General Wilson also described in detail the rapture of Jefferson Davis, President of the Confederacy, ror which ho was largely responsible. At that time he was In command of a division of the Union army near Abbyvllle, and several of his colonels accidentally came upon Davis' party. The latter endeavored to escape by disguising himself in h's wife's clothes but was unsuccessful, captured, and taken at first to General Wilson.

General Wil son had nought but commendation for the Confederate statesman and said yesterday that Jefferson Davis had always been appreciative of the treatment he received at Ue bauds of the OF High Mortality Feared in Potteries District, Where Coal Strike Has Closed Plants. TROOPS READY FOR RIOTS. Fears That Extremists Will Cause Trouble When Miners Return to Pits. London. March 2S The end of the calamitous national coal strike wnicn has so sorely aifected many millions of the population of the United Kingdom during the past four weeks is be lieved to be at hand.

No doubt appears to exist In the minds of many people that the majority of the million miners who left their work ud March 1 are desirous son anxious to return to the pits, and when the occasion offers will vote In favor of the proposal to resume. Most ei them, It is believed, would even return to the nits Immediately, but la each district there is a small section of determined extremists who oppose any action until the vote which ba been called for on the question of resumption of work or continuance of the strike lias been cast and counted. It Is these out and out fighters who are causing the trouble which necessitated the dispatch yesterday of troops lo Chirk In Wales, whore work has been proceeding for some days In the Brynkiualle collieries, and to Cannock lu tho Midlands, where efforts were made lust night to prevent the men working. Other owners are opening their mines today and those men who wiBh to start work will receive full protection from the Government. In the great military camp at Alder-shot M.nno soldiers are held in readiness to move at any moment to any point in the country, and at other military posts similar arrangerueuts have been made.

Ail the troops spent last night in their uniforms, while freight cars stood on the tracks loaded with their equipment and ammunition, so that a start could be made at the Instant a call was received- More urgent even than the necessity of protecting the luluoa is the very heavy duty facing the country of relieving the terrible destitution caused everywhere by the strike. Millions are living in a state of virtual senil-starvation in various parts of the country. The settlement can come none too soon, for of the 2.000,000 men besides the miners who have been thrown out of employment at least ball do not belong to any trade organization, and therefore receive no out-of-work benefit, and are thrown entirely on the mercy of charitable Institutions and private Individuals. In southern Wales the distress is becoming more terrible each day. In thousands of homes there would be no fuel and fool but for tho efforts of the relief committees which have been formed.

Prices everywhere, which already were far beyond what the usually prosperous workers could afford, are still rising, and it is almost Impossible even for those men who are receiving out-of-work benefit to purchase the necessities of life. The worst famine spot in the whole country exists In the potteries district, which comprises the towns of Stoke-upon-Trent, Hanley, Lougton, Burslem, Tunslall aud Newcastle under-Lynie. One of the doctors engaged in tho work of relief yesterday came across three persons there dying of starvation. These people are of a proud stock. They refused to go to refuges or to ask for food.

and it Is feared that grave mortality will occur among the 170.000 men among the unemployed In that district and their wives and children, unless work Is speedily provided for them and they can obtain food by their own efforts. It will take some time after the mines have again been opened to get enough fuel to start once more all the factories that have been closed owing to tho lack of driving power. The port of Grimsby la another place where the suffering is fearful. There 3,000 families have been under the care of the charitable without any hope of helping themselves for at least a fortnight. On the River Tyne, who surface lb usually covered with vessels coming in or going out, no fewer than 132 steamers are laid up, and In addition to the miners there are 40,000 men unemployed.

Tho crisis csused by this awful condition of things has brought about a serious split In the ranks of the Labor party and has strained the relations between the miners and the other trade unlnonists. It was onl yln 1909 that the miners Joined the Labor party, they having always maintained their own representatives in Parliament, and there is now a likelihood that they will again separate. At tho last meeting of the Labor party there were angry scenes and violent recriminations between those present as to the attitude which shluld be taken by the party on the third retadlng of the Government Minimum Wage Bill. Tho oilier trade unionists wanted to abstain from voting altogether, but the miners Insisted ou opposing the measure, and thus made the Labor party vote against a bill which for the first time In tho history of England embodied the principle of a minimum wage for workers. This may embarrass the whnlo of the labor movement In this country, as the question of a minimum wage for workmen has been one of 1he chief plans of the Labor party's platform.

Several Socialist members of the House of Common announced today that they will speak in various parts of the country during the week-end in favor of tho government's Minimum Wage Bill. STEWARD ACCUSED OF ASSAULT. Edward Clark, a steward at the Mon-tauk Club, was arrested by Detective Regan of local headquarters and arralgnel In the Butler street court this morning on a charge of assault In the thirJ de- I gree. I The complainant was John Droescher, a waiter at the club, who claims that Clark lilt him on the left car wlth'a bottle Idurlne a tiuarrcl night before last. Magistrate Harls adjourned the case, paroling Clark until April 1.

Oakland, March 28 Adolpb Goldman, recently released from Ean Quen-tin prison, was killed and R. W. Snow, former mayor of Oakland, was desperately wounded In a duel fought last night In the assembly rooms of the First Congregational Church In this city. Only the sexton, Charles F. Lewis, and Mrs.

F. CaEsidy were, witnesses, the congregation expected for prayer meeting not having arrived. The duel was tho outcome of an enmity dating back to the time Snow was elected mayor lu '181)9. Previously the men had been the best of friends. Some years ago Goldman shot Snow after a quarrel In San Francisco and was gentenced to Ave years In the penitentiary nfter a long legal battle, In which evidence was adduced besmirching the character of both men.

The witnesses say Snow was the first to enter the church last night, and was followed a few moments later by Goldman, who took a seat across the atsls from him. The first Intimation of trouble was when Goldman attacked Snow, slashing him with a raiior. While Snow was endeavoring to defend himself, Goldman drew a revolver and shot once. Snow fell to bis knees, and from that pohltlon fl.red the bullet, striking Goldman in the chest ana causing him to sink to the floor. Snow staggered to his feet and ilred twice more, both bullets finding their mark.

Goldman fired from his recumbent position, the bullet striking Snow In the head, but the latter managed to fire again, piercing Goldman's head, and killing him Instantly. Snow was taken to hospital. Burgeons hold out little hope for his recovery.
