AUSTRIA'S SPHERE OF OPERATIONS

RUSSIAN ADVANCE CONTINUES. POLES REFUSE SERVICE. (Received September 23, 1.30 p.m.) PETROGRAD, 22nd September. The Austrian army in Galicia is con- j fined to a quadrilateral composed by Rzeszoff, Jaroslav, Dynoff, and Przem- ! The Russians continue to advance on Cracow without serious check. Poles enrolled for Cracow's defence refuse to undertake the duty, preferring to surrender to the Russians. [The four towns, named as defining a quadrilateral, enclose an area about 40 miles from east to west, and 20 miles from north to south. Rzeszoff is 32 miles west of Jaroslav, which is on the San River, 60 miles east-north-east of Lemberg. Przemysl is about 16 miles south-south-east of Jaroslav, and Dynoff is 26 miles west of Przemysl.] At His Majesty's Theatre on Sunday evening the Wellington Professional Orcrestra, under Mr. Herbert Bloy, will give its sixth concert of tho season. The principal contributions by the orchestra will be Wagner's "Rionzi" Overture and a fantasia on Boito's opera "Mofi6tofele." The Venetian Suite of Ethelbert Nevin will be played for the first timo in Wellington, and a treat is promised in a melody by Ole Bull, "Saterjentens Sontag," in which the solo violin part will bo taken by Mr. John Garry. A silver coin collection in aid of tho orchestra's library fund will be made at tho doors.
