DEPLORABLE SHORTAGE
IN DIRECTORY MARKET
You Can’t Get a 1906 Name Book For Love
or Money-Growth of City
the Cause.
There la a shortage In the Atlanta
city directory market. You can't get
one for love nor money. There has
been none on the market since the
tint of March. J. W. Hill, who gets
out the directory, has been advertising
In the papers regularly for three
months In an alfort to buy coplaa from
those who bare subscribed and possi
bly do not need tham a* much' i* thay
litst thought they did. He can't get
them, however, even by offering the
original purchase prlca, plus a liberal
premium.
The shortage Is due to the gnat
growth of Atlanta, aaya Manager Hill,
who was Importuned Wednesday by a
representative of The Georgian, who
had orden to get another directory.
"I had a greater subscription list for
the 1906 directory than ever before,"
he aald, "but printed an extra 160
coulee any way. Before the tint of
February nearly every one of these
had been purchased and by tha lint of
March not on* waa left. Several new
firms In the city, organised since th*
lint of the year, hare begged and lm*
plored me to get directories for them
and I have been advertising, but so
far have not been eucceseful In getting
one."
If you happen to have a dlrectoi
you don’t need. Just communicate wltl

HERBERTDITTLER'S VIOLIN
DELIGHTS LARGE A UDIENCE
By SELENE ARMSTRONG.
Herbert Dlltler, Atlanta's yuung and
gifted vlollnst, made hla first public
appaarance at tha Bijou Tuesday even
ing. By 6:10 o'clock th* theater waa
nearly filled with an audience of aev-
era! hundred people—many of them
who felt In th* young nrtlat a warm
personal Interest, who would never
have dreamed of being critical, how
ever meager the performance; and
numbers, on the other hand, who were
curious lo ascertain for themselves
whether Herbert Dlttler really poa-
aessea the genius accredited lo him.
When the youth came upon the stage
hla personality Immediately won Ihe
sympathy and Intareat of Ilia audience,
and surprised those who had never
seen him. It I* evident at a glance
that he posaeaeea both genius and tem
perament. Th* slenderness of hie fig
ure gives the Impression of exceeding
frailty. Th* atnaftlve far* which re-
Herts every passing emotion,* the won
derful eyes, dark aa If with aome an
cient tragody, and th* penalv* mel
ancholy of Ms expression belong lo the
arttet who forever commute with “the
thing* which are unseen." Th* hand*,
long, sensitive, deft, are those of a
maestro. A personality which makes
Its appeal, and a magnetism which
compels response, even before th* bow
ts drawn across th* strings!
Difficult' Program,
The program rendered by Herbert
Dlttler would have taxed the power*
of any virtuoso, but It la not too much
to say that to each number he anve an
Interpratatlon which was not only soul
ful, but highly Intelligent and dignified,
When he began Ihe

ence. but thla disappeared

was masterly. To It he brought ease
and correctnaas of technique, aa well
as sympathy and sentiment.
The treatment of Handel's “Honatn
A Major- was broad and dignified. Th*
"Ralade *1 Polonaise." by Vleuxtempa,
waa well Interpreted and was present
ed with facile execution. Dvorak's
Humoreak*'' waa particularly aultad
to Dlttler and he rendered It so that
non* of Us exquisite daintiness was
lost upon hla hearers. In this composi
tion a whimsical humor altarnatao with
passages of deepest pathos, and while
ita technique Is not noticeably brilliant
It la by no means easy to present Its j
contrasting them** so aympathtlcally
as did Dlttler. The "Dana* Tstgans"
has all the swing and fire characteristic
of the Hungarian gypsy. This number
waa notable for th* clearness and cor
rectness of Its harmonies.
Th* Intonation of Ihe performer It
excellent throughout. Ills technique,!

It would scarcely Justify our bestowing
upon him Ihe high nsme of genius,
were his technical ability not accom
panied by something finer. It Is In hi*
rich temperament and In the aoul of
Ilia music that power lira. The qual
ity nl hi* work Is essentially feminine,
ae tha music of Llsat, for Instance, waa
essentially masculine. His range as
yet hA non* of the terrible power
which made people wonder whether
Paganini's genius were angel nr devil,
which seemed lo prove Ole Hull's kin
ship with the great elementa of nature,
thunder and lightning and rain, or
which made Joachim the mualcal giant
of the nineteenth century. Hla play
ing la marked rather by n subtlety, a
rare aplrltuallty, and by auch piercing
aweetness, surely, as caused the rocka
and trees iff high Olympus to follow
Orpheus' lute. The expediency of Her
bert Dlttter'a entering upon yeara of
atudy abroad inuat be decided on the
ground of temperament, rather than of
technical fitness. Those who heard
him know that he has th* tempera
ment .and that a great career await*
him. Atlanta should rally to hla sup
port. for he will one day come back t*
u* with the wreath of laurel.
Axisted by Kuhrt Mueller,
Mr. Dlttler wee ably assisted by
Kuhrt Mueller. Mr. Mueller rendered
some solos on the piano, each of which
waa enthusiastically received. In the
rendition of Llast's Hungarian Raspho-
dy hla technical work waa especially
brilliant.
