Never was a better appointment made than that of Dr Dvorak to the chief directorship of the Prague Conservatoire. Since Smetana’s death, there has been no Bohemian composer to touch Dvorak, and the composer is also a good conductor and an energetic worker. Saving known hardships and discourage xnent himself, Dvorak has keen sympathy with struggling musicians. Sixty-eight compositions are in the hands of the judges who are to award the prize in the triennial contest instituted by Paderewski in America. There are 31 orchestral works (symphon ies, symphonic poems, overtures), 9 choral works, and 23 pieces of chamber music. The judges are William Gericke, B. J. Lang, Carl Zerrahn, W. P. Apthorp, H. E. Krehbiel, W. J. Henderson, Henry T. Pinck, James Huneker, and Samuel Sanford. Last year was a busy time at the Mint. The gold pieces coined numbered 15.154,113 (weighing 102 tons), silver 40,982,789, bronze 51,652,616.
