All business of the gatherings, which have been in session here since Wednesday, will be finished today at a meeting of the council of the Archeological Institute in the Bucking- ham Hotel. Prof. Sanders has done much work in translating ancient literature, and has completed work of translating the text of what is known as the Pauline frag- ment, @ manuscript in the art collec- tion of Charles L. Freer of Detroit. This Manuscript, dug up near the pyramids in Egypt, contains all the New Testa- ment, except the gospels. From marks upon it Prof. Sanders says it has been determined that it belonged to a monk named Timothy, -who lived in a monas- tery near the third pyramid. Evidences on the fragment indicate that it was written early in the fourth century and, apparently, was a trans- lation of earlier works still undiscov- ered. Prof. Sanders’ work shows it contains much that corresponds with the text of a manuscript held in the Vatican library in Rome. Revisions of the Bible by Westcott and Hart, which are based on agree- ment with the Vatican manuscript and the Sinaitic manuscript, found at the top of Mt. Sinai by Tischendorff, are regarded by many as the nearest docu- ment to the original writings of Scrip- ture, while revisions under. the regime cf } King James in 1511 are also regarded by |many as being excellent translations and more nearly the text of what the original writings were. Prof. Sanders holds that 90 per cent of Bibles contain the St. James text, which is the same as the text made at An- In some cases the new fragment differs material- ly with the Vatican text and in .these differences agress with the St.. James text. These differences indicate . to Prof, Sanders that the ultimate in cor- rectness has not been reached yet; that it will be necessary to study further early translations and other manuscripts to arrive at what was the original text.

Graves says that when this tint vestor’s employer interfered the check was promptly returned and the trans- action cancelled. ‘‘We don’t want any- body to take our lots who doesn’t want them,” he said. . We: have calls : for more lots than we can supply.’’ , Graves says he has sold 1600 46ts at an average of $12% for a “frontage” of 30 feet. He says he has no more lots to sell right now, but he is preparing to plat an additional 8 acres to meet che demand for lots on the part of persons who have confidence that New Tancha is going to be a real city with houses and streets and who want a chance to participate in any oll strike that the company may make. Each purchaser of @ lot acquires a contingent interest in bir oll profits that may accrue from off Wells that may be bored by the com- pany, which obligates itself to bore at least 6ne well on each section that has been platted.

EDWARD STRAUSS, FAMOUS AS DANCE MUSIC COMPOSER, DIES More Than 200 Selectio Selections Credited to Him; Conducted Court Balls in Russia and Visited America. BERLIN, Dec. 30.—A Vienna dispatch announces the death of Eduard Strauss, the composer of dance music. Eduard Strauss was a member of a famous musical family.

NEW FOOD REGULATION PLAN IS SUGGESTED FOR GERMANY President of Board Wants Towns to. Contract With Producers Una- der Different System. BERLIN, by wireless to Sayville, Dec. 30.—Adolph T. Van Batocki, president of the Food Regulation Board, has sent ou a circular explaining that the sys- tem of maximum prices for food has not yielded satisfactory results and stat- ing that a change will be proposed in the “immediate future, says the Over- seas News Agency. In consequence of the difficulty in distributing from one central place articles like butter, pota- toes, meat.and milk, Von Batocki pro- posed that the towns should make con- tracts with the producers of all these articles in a manner similar to that which they now contract for pork. This system, it is stated, will allow a just distribution of fresh food during the summer and autumn and of. pre- served foodstuffs in the winter and spring. <A board of consultation will: be established, it is announced, to: pre- vent any municipality from obtaining larger quantities of food than. .do others. Raise in Pay, Besides Bonus. LYNN, Mass., Dec. 30.—In addition to the bonus to all employes, recently an- nounced, the General Electric Co. will grant a 5 per cent advance in wages to piece workers and adopt a 50-hour week instead of 62 hours.

They .have proyed to themselves, to the enemy and ito the world that this confidence is jus- tiffed.’’ The openiag of. the dispatch outlines the origin of the entente allies’ decision to begin the Somme operations. “The principal of an offensive cam- paign during the summer of 1916 had al- ready been decided on by all the allies,” says the report. ‘Various possible al- ternatives on the western front had bean studied and discussed by Gen. Joffre and myself and we were in complete agree- ment as to the front to be attacked by ithe combined French and British armies. Preparation for the offensive had made considerable progress, but the date was dependent on many doubtful factors. “Subject to ' the necessity Of com- mencing operations before the summer was too far advanced and with due re- gard to the genéral situation, I desired to ‘postpone my attack ‘as long as possi- ble. The British armies were growing in tlumbers and the supply of munitions was steadily increasing, but a large pro- portion ‘of ‘the officers and men were still far from being fully trained, and thé longer the attack was deferred the more efficient they would become, “On the other hand, the Germans were continuing to press their attacks: at Verdun and both there and on the’ Italian front, where the.

Adree on Verdun Offensive. “By the end of May the pressure on the Italian front had assumed such se- rious proportions that the Russian cam- paign was opened early in June and.the successes gained against the Austrians at once caused a movement of German troops. from. the western«to the eastern front. . This, however, did not lessen the pressure on .Verdun, and therefore, it was agreed that the combined French and British offensive would not be post- poned beyond the end of June. “The object of that offensive was three-fold: .To relieve pressure on Ver- dun; to assist our allies in. the other theaters of war by stopping any. fur- ther transfer of German troops from the westefn front; to wear down . the strength of the forces opposed to us.” the western theater was greater than .n| July, ‘notwithstanding the abandonment} of the offensive at Verdun. It is there- fore justifiable ‘to conclude that “the Somme ‘Offensive not only relieved’ Ver- dun,. bu held large forces which. would) étherwise have been employed. our allies in the east. “The third great object of the allied operations on the Somme was the wear- ing down of the enemy's powers Of Té-} sistance.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 30.—A drastic proposal designed to furnish authority under which private manufacturers or ship builders would be compelled to give preferetice to navy work has been sub- mitted by Secretary Daniels in the House Naval Committee for inclusion in the 3918 naval appropriation bill, consid- eration of which will be resumed next week. It provides that where contracts have been placed ‘for ships or muni- tions, or material, entering into the constuction of ships and the making of munitions,’’ the Secretary, in his dis- cretion, may require the fulfillment of the work ahead of any undertaking for private enterprise. Should the contractor fail to comply through neglect, delay or refusal, the Secretary would be authorized to take over the plant and complete the work, charging the contractor with all costs in excess of the stipulated contract price. Daniels indicated in his annual report the difficujties encountered by the de- partment in hurrying its building pro- gram and said the enorinous amount of new construction authorized required some remedial legislation. The item is one of the few cases of new legislation indluded in the navy bill and Chairman Padgett of the House Cemmittee expects to have it ready by the middle of January, despite the fact that it carries a total of nearly $400,000,- 000. . He believes his committee will recom- mend the 1918 constructiom@program pro- posed by Secretary Daniéls, which fn- cludes three 42,000-ton battleships, one battle cruiser ‘and about .one-half cf the remainder of the three-year program in smaller ships.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 3.—Chairman Newlands of the Senate Interstate Com- merce Committee said today the failure of railroad brotherhood officials and the ij railroad managers to reach an agree- ment regarding an eight-hour schedule pending determination of the constitu- tionality of the Adamson law, would not alter its plans for consideration of railroad legislation urged by President Wilson in his last message to Congress. “Wie will proceed as- usual but with expedition, I hope,’ said Senator New- ‘lands. “I do not know just who will appear before the committee Tuesday, but representatives of the brotherhoods, the railroads companies and the general public have been invited and I hope that the proposed legislation can be given early consideration in the Senate and the House.’’ Under a plan suggested by the Pres- ident and communicated to Congress by Representative Adamson, quick action can be obtained on the entire prograin once it reaches the floor. The President proposes amending a House railroad bill now before the Senate, with his pro- posed legisiation instead of introducing it in the form of separate bills. Brotherhood men, alded by the Amer- ‘ifitan Federation of Labor, will fight the proposed strike postponement amend- ment’ vigorously, they have announced. They insist that its passage would only give employers time to prepare for strikes and would deny labor the right to refuse work when conditions are un- satisfactory. Cirenlar Tells Brotherhoods’ Leaders Situation of Controversy. NEW YORK, Dec. 19.—Special circu- lars putting up to the 400,000 members responsibility for the next step to hé taken by the railroad brotherhoods in their controversy with the railroads over the application and interpretation of the Adamson act, were sent broad- cast by telegraph after a conference of the four brotherhood chiefs here today. Announcement of the action taken was made by William G. Lee, presi- dent of the Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen, prior to his departure for the West. He was accompanied by the other /, brotherhood leaders whose conference with the railway managers yesterday resulted in a disagreement. ‘Earlier in the day the four chiefs issued a statement ovér their signatures declaring that the attitude of the rail- roads threatened to wipe out the bene- fits that should accrue to the men from the passage of the Adamson act’ and asserting that for that reason “the en- tire situation is to be placed before the membership.” _ LEWISES’ SENTENCE DEFERRED: Motion for Arrest of Judgment toe Be Passed Upon Wednesday.

LEADERS AT DINNER Plans for Legislative Inquiry Talked Over at Gathering in Kansas City. Special to the Post-Dispatch. KANSAS CITY, 0., 30.—By unanimous vote last night a mass meéet- ing of 250 Republicans put themselves squarely behind the State Sub-Commit- tee on Election Frauds in whatever ac- tien may be taken to bring about a complete disclosure of alleged crooked- ness in the last election. Judge Henry Lamm, defeated Republican candidate for Governor, will consent to the use cf his name {in a contest of the election of Frederick D. Gardner as Governor, if such a course is taken. Henry M. Beardsley, former Mayor of Kansas City, was made chairman of a committee of eleven, to co-operate with the sub-committee, raise funds and as- sist in such prosecutions as may arise out of the investigations. Howe Explains Pian. Jeptha D. Howe, chairman of the State Committee, announced that the inguiry would be extended to the man- ner in which the prohibition amend- ment was defeated. Later a resolution was adopted ask- ing the Legislature to investigate og vote on the amendment. — The meeting was held in cintaeasia with a dinner at the Hotel Baltimore, attended by many local and State Re- publican leaders. Some of those who spoke in favor of a contest and vigor- ous prosecution of fraud, were Beards- ley, Howe, Mayor Edwards of Kansas City, Mayor Henry W. Kiel of 8t. Louis, Judge Lamm, Walter 8. Dickey, defeated candidate for Senator; John Schmoll of St.. Louis, Emil Dorn and W. 8S. H. Piatt, well known local Re- publicans. A motion to ask Judge Lamm to add his name to those protecting the results o? the election carried unanimously. An- other to start a subscription of funds at once was adopted and in less than five minutes a plan of action had been formulated and the action itself began, by the circulation of biank checks. Evidence of frauds having been per- petrated in Kansas City, St. Louis and other sections of the State at the elec- tion Nov. 7 and supported by affidavits were presented as a basis for the gath- ering to decide what action should be pursued. Lamm Guest of Honor. Judge Lamm sat at the speaker's table as the guest of honor. Mayor Kiel of St. Louis was seated at his right and Mayor Edwards of Kansas City at his left: Judge Lamm was asked to give his consent to a contest to filed with the Legislature. He replied in part: “First, I would have you understand ihat I don’t give a rap for the office of Governor. I am as happy as a clam at high tide. I don’t want an¥body to spend a single red copper or give any of his time in the interest of the con- test on my personal account. “yt am just a plain Missourian. I think ‘the man who is chosen Governor needs prayers and sympathy rather than congratulations. Therefore, should I want the office of Governor? It is a burden. “T want all of you to understand that if I go into the fight it is simply for the cause of good government. It is not for Henry Lamm. He’s getting old. It’s for the purpose of helping along the movement to rid the State of this nightmare. Chance for Gardner. “Now, Col. Gardner appears to have been elected. I should think he would thank God and me, too, for an oppor- tunity to purge his title to the office of any taint of dishonesty. And maybe he will. We shall see Friends of Judge Lamm said last night that they expect he will sign the contest papers. He may do so to- day before leaving for Sedalia, it was said. Howe reviewed the situation in the State. He said he has investigated the votes in five counties. In Dunklin Coun- ty %0 votes were reported from one town, and the canvass taken by long time residents of the neighborhood dis- closed the fact that many of the names voted were the names of persons dead 20 years, he said. “We have proved positively,’’ Howe said, ‘“‘that there were more votes re- ported to the State officials at Jefferson City than there are persons of voting age residing in the county. The tally did not compare in a single county with the total number of names on the vot- ing books—it was larger.” CONTEST WOULD KEEP MAJOR IN Attorney General Barker, in St. Louis today, told a Post-Dispatch reporter that if former Judge Henry Lamm in- stitutes a contest of the election of ct ASKS FOR NEN Curator's Report icinaiis $1, - 570,862 for Current Expenses for Next Two Years, ° ITEMS IN: THE.

Dispa COLUMBIA, Mo., Dec. 3%.—Total ap- propriations of $1,570,862 for current needs of the Missouri State University during the next two years, and the con- struction of 13 new buildings, are re- quested in the biennial report of the Board of Curators to the Forty-ninth General Assembly, which is being com- piled by C. B. Rollins, acting president of the board. It is known that the board does not expect to get the full amount it is ask- ing for, but the report and statement is complete with reasons why the money is needed. Of the total amount, $825,000 is. re- quested for maintenance, but the Legis- lature is told: that fully $1,000,000 - is needed to carry on the work at a stand- ard up to other State universities. This item includes salaries of the teaching and administrative forces, gas and ‘water used in heating and jighting, and other ordinary expenses, The remainder of the amount is for special purposes of the university activi- ties. The New Buildings Needed. No. estimate is made as to the prob- able cost of the new buildings request- ed, which include a Women's Gymna- sium, Mechanic Arts Hall, Home Eco- nomics Bullding, Educational Building, an addition to the Agricultural Building, Power . House, Hospital, Chemistry Bullding, Greenhouses, Journalism Building, Auditorium, Armory and Ob- servatory. , Persons familiar with the financial condition of the State are gf the opinion that there will be no appropriations this year for new buildings, although the needs are realized: Many of the bulld- ings which it is sought to replace with new, modern and larger structures to accommodate the constantly growing student body, are old, in bad condition and entirely too small for the classes.

The present law is adequate, says Mr. Schimel, but should be amended to make evasion impossible by having the Recorder furnish a list of mortagages to the Assessor and require the name of the owner to be inserted in the mort- gage instead of the straw-man, and record the name of the new owner when an assignment or transfer is made. This identical system was tried in Minnesota and was a hopeless failure. The old form of con- fiscatory property tax on interest-bearing securi- ties has completely broken down. This is the con- It does not require a dynamic mind to see that an in- vestor will not pay a tax of from 2 per cent to 3 per cent on a 56 per cent or 6 per cent security. The system suggested by Mr. Schimel will have this result if adopted. The law will be evaded, the borrower will pay the tax, or the loan will not be made. One of the three results would be inevitable. I wish to quote from the report of the Minnesota Tax Commission on the suggested sys- tem: State. th ce ame common of having the mort- gage in the nam®é@ of a nonresident, even hen owned a citizen, thus evading the tax. As @ result a very small revenue was derived. This is the history in every other State that has tried to maintain a confiscatory tax. Under the ‘Schimel system the borrower will pay the tax. Under the mortgage tax law system the tax will be paid by the lender. Why? The law as drawn authorizes the return of foreign mortgages for taxation by citizen holders. The-holder of the ®eourity will pay a smal} reasonable tax to obtain the exemption from the confiscatory tax. The ‘bulk of the mortgages in this State are handled ‘Dy large trust companies, who issue debenture obligations against them, or issue bonds. These institutions will pay the tax-to offer their in- vestors a tax free investment. This will greatly ) the salability of these securities.

They compel no one to buy. They invade no rights and violate no laws in dry states or sections. They do not transport goods into for- bidden territory or across borders sacred to intol- erance. It is the plain right of men engaged in lawful business to advertise their goods for sale. It is the plain right of newspapers to accept such advertisements. To. attempt to prevent such advertising, which is neither fraudulent nor illegal, by forbidding the use of the mails to newspapers and periodicals accepting it, is a tyrannical use of governmental power. It overrides individual rights and per- sonal freedom of action wholly lawful where the advertisements are accepted. It is an effort by indirection to destroy lawful industries solely be- cause of the possibility that some individual in dry state/or section may be induced to buy bev- erages: which certain persons think may be harm- ful to: him. . | Such a despotic misuse of the control of the mail service, which is operated for the benefit of all, to serve the intolerance of a part of the people, would be a violation of the fundamental principles of American government. It would be a gross abuse of power. ce + a ae ee THE INFORMATION W..NTED.

By Charlotte Rumbold. There is probably no city of 20,000 people in the United States that has not a housing problem in its low rent districts.. It is invariably one of such a kind, moreover, that after the most super- ficial, amateurish survey it would be easy to organize an arson squad out of the church broth- erhoods. Certainly out of the church sewing so- cieties. Once the killing difficulties, wearinesses of tenement housekeeping really reach the con- sciousness—and conscientiousness—of the com- fortably-lived women, the worst of the housing problems will be over. ° Consider carrying all the water for the family, father, mother and children, for cleaning, laundry, drinking, cooking three meals a day, up two flights of stairs. When freezing weather comes, the yard hydrant is the first thing to get out of order. That means, added to the stair climb, a walk in the worst weather of sometimes half a block to the nearest unfrozen supply for each bucket of water. Finally, if you obey the tene- ment code you carry all the waste water and waste material down again. How long would those daily, hygienic, morning baths, for each one of the. family, last? How long would it be before the “small slop’ would go out of the window? It is village sanitation carried over into city life which makes the outstanding physical character- istics of every “slum.” It makes for conditions understandable neither by the village housekeeper who is comfortable and healthy, to say nothing of moral, with the same type of water supply and sewage disposal, nor by the well-placed uptown housekeeper to whom plumbing, unless it is out of order, is so much a matter of course that it is hardly even noticeable. The village outhouse, to face the worst of the question, does not by any means predicate, on the farm or in the village, unspeakable disease, moral and physical contamination of children, possible contagion and epidemic for the whole community. But place it on the alley of a crowded city, and health officers, tenement mothers, settlement, missiqnary and civic workers ‘spend their lives trying to undo the evils it has done and is doing. To the visitor from Mars it would seem incred- ible that year after year they work and pray over infant mortality rates and refuges for ruined girls when what they want, and know they want, is lead pipe and a sewer connection. But that is just what they can’t get. ’ Every housing survey whether sketchily ama- teur or scientifically professional results in one part of the community indignantly saying “there ought to be a law,” and the other part standing on its constitutional rights to control its own property for its own profit.

And I don’t mean take it out of the can or get it at the delicates- sen either, There is an easy as well 98 a hard way of getting company meals and in a hourehold emergency you must choose dishes that are easy to prepare and cook, leaving more elaborate dishes for vccasions when you have more time.

Then for dessert you can have popovers served with hard Sauce. While the beef and the noodles and mushrooms are cooking we shall have plenty of time to put the house in spick and span conédt- tion, Wash the dishes, and to get out the best china and table linen. This makes a very simple luncheon, but one that most people thoroughly en- joy. Mushrooms are only 3) cents a pound now and half a pound makes enough for four people or even six if you serve small portions. Go right turned upside down so that they formed a lot of little sups, which were filled with butter. These were placed in a graniteware baking dish which contained very little water, just enough to barely cover the bottom of the pan and put in the oven to bake. After the noodles had bbijled for fif- teen minutes they were drained, sea- soned with salt and a little red pepper, put in a baking dish and sprinkled with grated cheese, with a little milk poured over them and a sprinkling of cheese on tep. This was then put in the oven about first prepared. “a While all these things were cooking the house was put in order, brushed up and dusted until it.was spotless. Aftér this Aunt Sarah showed her niece how to make delicious popovers from an eco- nomical and é¢asy recipe. Inte a mixing bowl she put one cup of flour, one cup }of milk, one unbeaten egg and a pinch of salt. With an egg beater she whipped the mixture until it was-full of bubbles and as smooth as cream, Then she took a gem pan which she had previously heated In the oven and into each com- Partment she put two brimming tea- spoonfuls of the batter and set the pan at once into the oven as far from the other dishes as possible. When the beef had cooked for about 20 minutes it was taken from the oven and the top covered with slices of buttered bread, and when these were a rich golden brown it was done. All the guests enjoyed the homely dishes immensely and praised the cook and the cooking. ) Famous in History By Albert Payson Terhune. ROMULUS; the Wolf-Boy. : — - BARBARIAN adventurer, about 2700 years ago, seized the walled city of Alba Longa, in Italy, and proclaimed himself its ‘‘King.” His name was Amulus. By Way of making sure his new position, he imprisoned his aged broth- er, Numitor, the city’s former King, then murdered Numitor’s only son and threw this son’s new-born twin babies into the River Tiber. It was a pretty clean sweep of the royal family, and it left the throne’s title clear to Amulus. . But the twin babies did not drown when they were tossed into the river. and hill, if °F instead them. e and reared the names o wicker basket in which they lay was caught by an eddy of the cur- Was washed ashore among some tree trunks at the base of a hill. by the way, was the Palatine, later the first site of the city of two new-born boys lay crying in their basket a she-wolf came the river to drink.

By RICHARD’ L. ‘STOKES. [RECTOR ZACH’S sixth ‘sym- [) ‘phony program of the season, given yesterday afternoon at the Odeon and to be repeated there tonight, may be regarded in some sort as an il- lustrated and fascinating lecture wpon the historical development of the or- chestra in the last 200 years. In the opening number, the overture to Gluck’s “Iphjgenia in Aulis,’"’ there was‘ aston- ishingly revealed what effects a master could obtain with the slender instru- mental resources of the eighteenth cen- tury, when only the string band had at- tained its present perfection, and when most of the brass instruments of today and our elaborate percussional battery had not yet found their way into the orchestra. In the succeeding masterwork of Brahms, the Second Symphony, in D Major, was exhibited a composer of genius commanding all the riches of the modern orchestra, but using them, ac- cording to the classicist traditions in which he was absorbed, with restraint, as a means to an end—the end being the expression of his thought and feel- ing. Finally, in the “Capriccio Espag- nol,”” by Rimsky-Korsakow, one of the most aud&cious manipulators of the or- chestra even among Russian compos- ers, the instruments became an end in themselves, and their possibilities © in bizarre combinations, in odd and pictur- esque coloring, were*exploited with ex- travagance to make interesting and at- tractive ideas which one must confess tc be rather shallow. In keeping with the instrumental ‘pro- gram was the vocal one, provided by Emilio de Gorgoza, the celebrated bari- tone. He followed the overture to “Iphigenia in Aulis,” with the recitative and aria from the same opera, ‘Diane Impitoyable,”’ and after the Brahms symphony sang the arioso, “O Promise of Joy Divine,’’ from Massenet’s ‘Le Rol de Lahote.’’. As a balance to the Rimsky-Korsakow caprice he offered. for an encore, ‘Mephistopheles’ Serenade from Berlioz’s ‘‘Damnation of Faust.’’ in the Nashville Terminal. This judg- ment has not yet been satisfied. Shortly after the $700,000 judgment was obtained the Pierce Oil Corporation no- tified the bank it was ready to pay the $200,000 loan, although it still had about two months to run. President Lonsdale of the bank wrote to the corporation saying the bank was willing to accept payment of the loan, but must refuse to turn back the stock pledged as security, as it was the prop- erty of Henry Clay Pierce and there- fore could legally be held as security for his indebtedness. The reply was a letter from Charles W. Cahoon, vice- president of the corporation, in which he said the corporation stood willing to pay the loan on surrender of the col- lateral, but would not enter in any con- troversy with the bank as to the owncr- ship of the stock. “ Refused to Return Collateral. Londale again wrote to the corporation telling of the inducement held out to the bank when negotiating the loan and offering to accept ‘payment and waive interest on the loan from that date to the time of maturity, but still refusing to turn back the collateral. This time the reply came from Clay Arthur Pierce, president of the corpora» tion. Pierce renewed the proposition to pay the loan, but insisted on the surrender of the collateral, which, he said, had been pledged by the’ corporation and not by his father, Henry Clay Pierce. _The bank then notified the corpora- tion that unless its cénditions were at- cepted it would file suit. A final tender of payment of the loan was made and rejected and the sult was filed and was quickly followed by the corporation’s Federal action. Pierce Must Pat Up $900,000 Bond for His Appeal. The appeal bond in the case of the Na- tional Bank of Commerce against Henry Clay Pierce, in which the bank got a judgment for $700,000 against Pierce, was fixed at $900,000 yesterday by Judge Kin- sey.

Many times in this number Kipling’s story ir- resistably came to mind, that of the ship which found Atself and at last spoke in its.own’ volce. We no longer heard a dialogue of flutes, violins and horns, but» all’ their tongues blended into the one imperial Voice of the or- chestra. Almost as beautfful.was the Gluck overture, and ‘one understood the imper- ishable vitality which has enabled it to survive’ for two centuries and still stand as a’ masterpiece of dramatic ex- pression: in tones, despite its lack of the more powerful and spectacular in- struments. It was ‘forcibly’ impressed on the memory that Gluck Was: the Wagner of his time, the apostle who was the connecting link between Monte- verde and the wizard of Beyreuth in accomplishing the reform of develop- ing opera from “a concert with stage settings’”’ to an organic art-work. De Gogorza won the audience's warm regard with his polished and elegant vocalism, his suave and musical’ tone, and his ardent. talent for. expression: One of the new rules of the concerts was broken to permit him to give an additional number in the midst of the program, and Zach abetted the vio- lation by providing an orchestral accom- paniment for the encore. The singer would have vouchsafed a second one had he obeyed the obvious wishes of his hearers. No doubt he lacks the reson- ance and vibrancy of tone requisite to electrify an audience in the style of Amato or Ruffo, but his singing must have been relished by any vocal ,teach- ers who happened to be present,/so re- fined and artistic was his method—the free, loose throat, the voice placement “dans le masque,’’ the consummate skill in breathing.

Congressman Pikceebia Thinks It Will Be $300,000,000— Bonds to: Be Issued. By Wire From the Washington Bu- reau of the Post-Diapatch. WASHINGTON, Dec. 3.—President Wilson and Secretary McAdoo are con- sidering Ways and means to meet the treasury defi it which will come at the end of the fisca} year, June 30, 1918. The President has tentatively agreed to issue bonds to secure a portion of the prom- ised deficit. There is a wide difference between the figures of Secretary McAdoo and Chair- man Fitzgerald of the House Committee on Appropriations, as to what the deficit will be. McAdoo, in his annual report, predicted that the deficit would be, June 80, 1918, $185,583,000. Fitzgerald declared that the deficit would be nearer $300,000,- 000. The President has stated that he be- lieves bonds should be issued only to meet temporary and emergency expendi- tures. It is urged by McAdoo and mem bers of Congress that the very condi- tions that the President describes have been caused by the Mexican situation Previous acts of Congress have autho! - ized the treasury to issue Panama bonds, about $240,000,000 of which are available. The interest on these bonds will be 3 per cent. Secrétary McAdoo has a plan by which some’ of the needed revenue can} be raised. He would put a tax on foods in storage. Such a tax, it is argued, could be levied in such a way that in- stead of being burdensome: or increasing the cost of living, it would reduce prices on leading: food products by forcing them out of warehouses. It is the pur- pose of. those favorable to this plan to base a graduated tax on the length of time food products have been stored in warehouses. The outstanding tenet: bearing debt of the United States on June ® last amounted to $971,562,590. Excluding postal savings bonds, one-year treasury notes and conversion bonds, this is made up of $118,489,900 4 per cents, $63,945,460 3 per cents (due in 1918), $639,259,550 2 per cents (due in 1930), $84,331,980 Panama bonds bearing 2 per cent and $60,000,000 Panama $8 per cents, similar to those to be issued.

Her home me Electricity in the ) Home The home that sells best, rents best and is easiest | to live in, nowadays, is the “all electric” home. This is the home in which electric energy lights, heats, cooks, washes, irons, sweeps, churns, sews, fans and otherwise lightens household tasks “Harnessed lightning” from the central electric station does more kinds of housework each year, and each year does them better and cheaper. Makers of household utilities, quick to see how popu- lar electric service is becoming in American homes, are constantly improving them, inventing new ones, and re- ducing prices. * Central electric stations are eager to build up this new business, which comes during the day, when ‘demand from other sources is lightest. It helps them keep ines nuge — busy more hours daily. The difference in cost of inert the old- fashioned hand-labor home and the “all electric” and gets smaller every year. home is small _ The difference in labor saved and leisure gained by the housewife—to say —_—, of the saving in servant hire—is a big one ~ It’s the touch-a-button age down town; there’s no reason why it shouldn’t ‘be at home.

(Copyright, 1916, by ‘Press Pub. Co.) PARIS, Dec. 30.—A letter from Francois Descamps, manager of Georges Ca tier, the heavyweight opampige.o Europe, is on its way to Tex Rickard. and says plsiniy that they will go to the nited States if a furlough can be obtained for Carpentier which will make it possible for Pg to leave the avia- ion corps temporarily. Descamps is holding the contract from Rickard offering Carpentier $20,000 for one bout in the United States, but will not sign it until he can discuss at length with Rickard the terms, the. opponent, the place the number of rounds and the Red Cross percentage, after reaching New York. j Descamps received a cable mes- sage from Tom O’Rourke, some time ago, Offering $30,000 to Ca tier for a bout, and Descamps replied to- day that he would confer with him on this proposition’ if he made the jo ey across. the Atlantic. . cah get a three months’ furlough for Carpentier from the French army will have the first chance to sign the boxer. éscamps said today that the let- ter to Rickard was not a contract, pat eaeey Pr reply nts nothing cou one un arpentier reached New York. He is decidedly pessimistic as to the chances of getting a furlough that would make it possible for Car- pentier to leave the country. hy Spgs of one month, while ne. been. convalescing from a slight attack of bronchitis, will ex- pire next week, when Cafpentier will return to the aviation corps and again take up flying at the front. ———_@—__—_.

It showed in the baggy arcs under Day O’s eyes, in his walk, and in the lack of his rightful manliness. There seemed another way. out, the easiest. He wrote to his Uncle Zeb, who could pull a quarter of a million from his sleeve- without wincing. in his college Gays he and Ufritle Zeb had been quite chummy. But the sowing had drifted them apart.

PRINCE. NCE. upon a time there lived .3 poor Prince. There was a big castle with little in it. except old furniture. The fact was the King and Queen had died suddenly’ and a wicked ogre had overrun the country while the Prince Was ‘too young to defend it. ~The ogre had carried away to his own country everything worth having, so that the people were left poor, and the young Prince with scarce enough to eat. On the day when the Prince was to celebrate his twenty-first birthday, he heard news of a beautiful Princess who lived in another? kingdom, about 100 miles' away. His dinner was only cold por- ridge and water, but when he heard of set out at once for the court in which she lived. But when he arrived there, all tired and dusty and ragged, he found the guards would not admit him. “What, you a Prince?’ they laughed. ‘‘You look more like a ragpicker.”’ 80 the poor Prince was turned away ffom the palace gate and went sorrow+ fully limping down the road to sleep beneath the trees. Early the next morn- ing he heard a great commotion and saw people running about, soldiers gal- loping down the road, and heard in the distance the roar of cannon. ‘The great ogre from the frozen North had stolen the Princess in the night,”’ replied a man of whom the Prince asked the news. “The King says he will give the Prin- cess in marriage to the one who rescues her,” continued the man. “But I. do not know of any. one in this land who would undertake the task. We all love her, but no fhan fs willing to risk cer- tain death on such a useless chase.” “Why is it certain death?” asked the Prince. “Because no one has ever been known to come back alive from the '/ogre’s cas- tle,’ replied the man. But the Prince decided to make the journey. .He was poor, but he was brave, and nothing would prevent his going. So he set out at-once to find the Princess. All. that day. he walked through the forests. Once he stumbied over a wild ox and scrambled on its back. The animal ran for hours straight toward the Black Mountains, which ‘was a great help, and when it dropped ex- hausted the Prince found he was near the hut of “some kind woodchoppers. These men fed him and gave him a hot supper. The next morning he started out early, and as he began to climb the mountain an eagle swept by. The Prince grabbed the bird's foot and was carried far up over the mountain and down on the other side. The eagle alighted on the} and shore of the river of ice. On the bank stood a sled which had beén left by a | head reaching the clouds, was the huge openéd his coat, and with that as a sail, he flew over the ice to the ‘other side, where the -huge palace of the ogre Tose in stone turrets to the sky. As he landed on the earth he looked up, and. theré’ striding along with his ogre. He walked into the castle. and clanged the great gate behind him. Just then from an upper window in a tower the Prince caught sight of a fair, plead- ing face “looking at him. He stepped back quickly to the bottom of the wall. A note fluttered'to his feet. He picked it'up and read: “If you have come to save me, climb tonight up the vine -on west side of this tower. I will let you in the window. Keep still till moonrise, by which time the ogre will be asleep, for should he see you he will be sure to cast you into the darkest dungeon be- neath this castle. Farewell till moon- rise. Aina “PRINCESS MAY.” ‘The Prince crept to the shadow of a bush and lay waiting for the moon to sail up above the mountain. At mid-] and the ogre strode into the room the prince slipped out into the hall. There he ‘@aw.a_ huge .iron.. beam . leaning against the wall.

At last he clambered ‘into the narrow, round room of the top of the tower and, saw the Princess standing in the center of the floor. “It you wish to destroy the : ogre,” she panted, quickly, “you must take my advice. He is very strong, and it is al- most impossible to kill him, but there is one way it may be done.”’ “Tell me,” said the Prince, “and I will do it, even if it cost. my life. . Noth- ing shall keep me from rescuing you from this wretch.” “I am not his only prisoner,”’ tinued‘ the Princess. ‘‘The great, black below this castle hundreds of fine steeds.
