In view of the recent death of Arthur Schnitzler, the great Austrian dramatist and afi Bar a^||f novelist, a selection from his works will be given in English, followed by a rendition of the famous Leutnant Gustl in German. Es- pecial interest attaches to Schnitzler num- bers, as Mr. Montor comes from Vienna, the sceneof most of Schnitzler's plays.
