Claimed It Pierces the Thickest Kind of Armor.
Fired From Regulation Army Rifle, It Will Penetrate Three-Quarter Inch Steel Plate and Other Objects Beyond. Could Go Through Thirty Men In Row.
New York.—A new bullet, capable of piercing armor as thick as that which covers the famous British "tanks" or that used in making trenches on the Somme bomb and bullet proof, has been invented and tested by the ordnance corps of the United States army. The bullet is of only 30 calibur; but, fired from the regulation army rifle, it will penetrate a three-quarter inch steel plate and other objects. It is said that the bullet would be able to pierce from twenty to thirty men in a row. It has been tested severely at the Sandy Hook proving
BRIGADIER GENERAL CROZIER, CHIEF OF ORDNANCE, U.S.A.
grounds by the ordance corps, and the statements published concerning its efficacy are the results of actual trials.
It has taken many months of experimenting to develop the bullet, which is exactly like the ordinary bullet in appearance, but has an outside covering of lead around the armor piercing center of steel. This lead casing acts as a lubricant in passing the bullet through the steel and is ripped from the steel core as the bullet passes through a solid obstruction. Only a small number of the bullets have been manufactured, and these were made entirely in government shops. Fifty ordance and engineer corps officers were present when these were used in the first tests. A three-quarter_lnch-steel plate about forty feet long and twelve feet wide was erected, and behind it were fixed targets in the semblance of a soldier.
A detail of men from the coast artillery and ordance corps did the firing. The bullets would not pierce the steel at 100 yards. At fifty, however, they riddled the steel plate and the silhouette targets behind it.
It is not believed that the new bullet will be valuable or necessary in ordinary infantry engagements in the open. Its worth is said to lie principally in attacks on houses, steel shelters and other obstructions behind which enemy troops are concealed. Tests have been made to demonstrate that the bullets can be fired from a machine gun as well as a rifle.
SAW SIXTEEN BEARS.
Smith Killed and Got the Hides of Four of Them.
Wenatchee, Wash. — The best bear story of the season comes from Merritt, and H. B. Smith is the hero.
Smith one day the other week shot a bear 200 yards off, wounding it in a foreleg. The wounded animal came dashing down toward him and when within 100 feet was brought down with an accurately aimed shot through the heart.
Hardly had Smith fired the second shot, according to the story, when a second black one poked its head over a log near by. One shot finished it. The other shot to jump all around. Smith began a fumble. He emerged with four peltz. Smith said he saw sixteen bears in all.
Electric Shock at Organ.
Woodland, Cal.-Wilson playing the organ at the Catholic church during services Byron Derr received an electric shock that rendered him unconscious. His head had come in contact with the switch operating the motor which supplies the air for the pipes. Derr quickly recovered without the congregation knowing of the incident
CHINA FINDS IT HARD
TO DISBAND ITS ARMY
Soldiers Love Their Job, and If Not Paid They Loot.
Peking-China's toughest problem now is how to disband the army raised during the revolution. The government, hard pressed for money, will have to raise at least $30,000,000 to pay off the $80,000 men under arms, and unpaid soldiers are always a menace in China. Congress military service as a very desirable job, and the enlisted it is difficult to persuade them to retire. They riot and become extremely troublesome if an attempt be made to disband them without liberal payment. The commanding officers are frequently as mercenary as the soldiers. When the government fails to give its soldiers what they regard as adequate pay the troops frequently become bandits and loot.
Each province has its own military governor and a distinct military organization, presumably under control of the Peking authorities, but actually independent in most cases. Consequently, the province is dealt very diplomatically with the military organizations in the provinces, particularly in the remote provinces.
Presses a Button In Bed and the Window Shade Goes Down as if by Magic.
Cambridge, Mass. — Every morning at 7 o'clock Henry R. Guild of Boston, a Harvard senior, rolls over in bed. Seven o'clock is too early for a senior to get up, so Mr. Guild presses a button and the shade at the distant end of his chamber rolls down as if by magic.
No rising sun is going to make him leave his bed unseasonably. Some morning he may miss a four alarm fire by pressing the button, but he's willing to take the chance, he asserts. Getting up at 7 a. m. is a high crime at Harvard, the same as admitting Yale has a good football team this year.
Henry Guild framed a motor, attached to the curtain string and laid wires to his bedside. When the sun throws its rays into his bedroom every morning, weather permitting, he presses button and the curtain fops faster than in the woodville the other. Mr. Guild's next invention probably will be a trap door to throw tiresome professors into the cellar by means of a button that any student can press. Life's attendant inconveniences aren't going to bother him while electricity can do the work.
FIREMAN SAVES BABY.
Climbed on Pilot of Locomotive, Lifted Infant From Track.
La Crose, Wis.-Coon valley residents are talking of applying for a Carnegie medal for Fireman Peter Hensgen of the La Crose and Southeastern. He was in a freight engine cab when he saw a child in the distance on the track.
It was down grade and the brakes were slow to grip. Hensgen climbed out along the footboard to the pilot, grasped a rod and leaned down.
He grabbed the sleeping child with his free hand and lifted her from the track. The child was the little daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Elmer Jacobson. She had wandered away in the afternoon and lay down tired between the rails and went to sleep.
NEW DIMES IN CIRCULATION.
$180,000 Worth of Coins Distributed by the Philadelphia Mint.
Philadelphia — The new ten cent pieces which have been coined in large quantities at the Philadelphia mint were recently put into circulation for the first time, about $180,000 worth being distributed to banks and trust companies. They were introduced simultaneously western states from the Denver mint.
The obverse side of the new dime shows a head of Liberty in profile, while the reverse side shows a bundle of rods in the center and the protruding battleax, symbols of unity. Surrounding the central design is an olive wreath, denoting peace.
The new coins are expected to be in general circulation within a few days.
Child Escapes Coyote.
Bend, Ore.-Attracted to the dooryard by an unusual noise being made by a bock of turkeys, Mrs. Thomas Merchant, living east of Bend, found a coyote running toward her little girl. The anatomy of the coyote and its beloved to have been rabid. Mrs. Merchant had just time to snatch her daughter up and return to the house before the coyote reached the spot where the little girl was at play.
Oakland, Cal.—Dr. J. H. Callen, who had two hives of bees, much alive, on his Fruitvale avenue property, is now occupied in cleaning out two hives of dead bees, victims of an unsuccessful Verdun defense against a borne of malaria, since she shows that the ants attacked in honey, carrying the bees' first, second and third line of trenches and then attacking the entrances to the hives.

Pittsburgh.—The heroism of John Murray, aged twenty-seven, a laborer, of Chicago, who risked his life to save that of Patrick Eustace, has been rewarded by the Carnegie he commission, which awarded Murray a bronze medal.
Reaching out into an elevator shaft on the nineteenth floor of an uncompleted building in Chicago on June 27, Murray grasped Eustace, who had fallen from the wentheast floor. Murray gripped an iron beam with an arm and with his free arm caught Eustace as he started down the elevator shaft.
Other heroes from the middle west received honors.

Donald H. Stoops, seventeen years old, of Nappade, Inc., received a medal because he saved Pauline E. Holmes, thirteen, and L. Beatrice Dossell, fifteen, from drowning at Pickwick Park, Ind, June 16, 1913. Stoops, although he had lost his left arm eight months before, swam to the point where the girls were struggling, pushed one of them ahead of him with his shoulder until she was in shallow water and swam back and rescued the other girl in the same way.
Dana S. Miller, a farm manager of Butler, Ind., is awarded a medal for having saved Elmer McDonald, a laborer, from an enraged bull on Aug. 17, 1912. McDonald had been gored and four ribs were broken. Miller attacked the animal with a pitchfork and was repeatedly knocked down. He finally seized a ring in the bull's nose and clung to it until the animal was euthanasia.
William T. Best, Owosso, Mich., is listed because he saved three-year-old Carney P. Lampshire from burning after a gasoline explosion at Owosso, Jan. 5, 1915. Best's burgers disabled him for six weeks.
One woman is on the list. She is Mrs. Olive M. J. Cooper of Battle Creek, Mich., who saved an adult and three children from drowning at Spencerville, Ind., by swimming out on the St. Joseph river and returning with them one at a time.
TEACHER NEAR DEATH
Pupil She Corrected Had Nitroglycerine Cap.
Oakbrook, Pa.-Miss May E. Dillon,
a teacher in the primary grade of the
schools, only realized the next day
how narrowly she had escaped death.
She was forced to reprimand one day
and used a ruler. The next day she learned that
the culprit had a nitroglycerin cap in
his pocket at the time.
Lawrence Hine, six years old, one of
the pupils, found a can of the explosive
in a stone quarry and distributed some
caps among his friends. The next day
the owner of the caps called at the
school, and all the caps were recovered
from the pockets and desks of the pu-
pers, and twenty-four hours were
in danger of being buried in midair
together with their schoolhouse and
teachers.
SCARED TO DEATH BY SEA.
Raw Lightship Keeper Goes Into Frenzy in First Gate.
Newport, R. I.—A case of a man literally frightened to death has just been reported. Gustav Ljunvall went to Brenton's reef lightship as assistant keeper, but before he had time to become accustomed to his surroundings the wind became a gale, accompanied by great seas, and the ship pitched at dawn. Ljunvall expressed great fear that the ship would go down. In a frenzy he tried to jump overboard, but was restrained. His violence increased, and the crew put him in an improvised straftruck and kept him there until he died.
Indian, 122 Years Old, Works Daily, Mazatlan, Mexico. — This western coast town of Mexico claims as a resident the oldest man in the world, Jose Juan Velasquez, an Indian, who, according to all records available, is 122 years old. Velasquez has the ability of a man of less than half his years and works daily as a laborer. He possesses a remarkable memory and is aware with happenings during the Hildago revolution for Mexican independence from Spain in 1810-21.
Heroes Wear Trouseres.
Charleston, W. Va.—A horse wearing a pair of trousers on its front legs is a novelty dress, duly the street. The animal is attached to the hips wagon, and the owner dresses him in order to protect his forelegs from flesh. The trousers are supported by the breastband of the harness.

ASLEEP, NOT DEAD.
Printer Woke Up In Time to Dodge the
Corpse, and Undo the
Coroner and Undertaker.
Mount Pleasant. N. Y. - Harry Daugherty, a printer, was dead to all intents and purposes the other evening.
The members of the household where he lived so reported to an undertaker and the coroner. The coroner immediately and asked the parents of his death and asked the relatives if they wanted an investigation made.
When the coroner and the undertaker, carrying a dead basket between them, opened the gate leading into the yard they met Daugherty, hale and hearty, go to work.
Exhausted from a long day's work, Daugherty had lain down' on the bed for a nap when another member of the household, seeing him, became frightened and, thinking him dead, notified the authorities.
OPERATES ON RIGID JAWS.
Surgeon Uses a Cushion of Fat to Make Them Work.
Philadelphia.—A patient whose jaws had been rigid for twenty years, who had never learned to talk and who had been obliged to obtain all his nourishment through a tube, was the subject of one of the many operations performed at the various clinics here as part of the activities of the clinical congress of surgeons of North America.
The joints of the patient's jaws had halved after an attack of scratter fever, which was only a year old. Dr. W. Wayne Babcoe laid open the stiffened joints, scrapped away a bony substance which was found covering them and inserted a cushion of fat taken from another part of the man's body.
AUTO AIDS GUNNERS.
Makes Adirondacks Accessible For Week End Trips.
Utica, N. Y.—in most sections of the Adirondacks game is plentiful. More and more each year the automobile is being used by gunners, particularly those who live in the cities and towns near the forests.
Thousands of hunters are going into the woods for week end trips, and machines are also used for the purpose of taking the hunters from one good ground to another. This of course relates to small game, and it is surprising how many good places can be covered by this method of gunning.
The new law prohibits any gunning from an automobile, but the machine makes the innermost accesses of the forests accessible to the gunner who has a car.
FLY SAVES BOY'S LIFE.
Accidentally Discharged Bullet Only Hurt His Arm.
La Crasse, Wis.-A飞 saved the life of Carl Kaeppler, thirteen years old, while he was hunting in the vicinity of Stift creek with William Stellick, fifteen years old.
Carl felt something irritating his forehead and raised his arm to brush the fly aside. At the same instant Stellick, who was only a few paces distant, accidentally discharged a rife he was carrying.
The bullet passed through the fleshy part of young Kaeppler's arm and, although most of its force was spent, the bullet was not fatal.
Physician said he probably would have been killed had not his arm been in the way of the bullet.
COYOTE ATTACKS AUTOIST.
After It Was Run Over It Wanted to Bite the Driver.
Reno, Nev.-That a coyote that will attack the front end of any automobile traveling thirty miles an hour, allow it to attack and run the driver, and then get up and attack the driver on out of curiosity stopped to see what damage was done must be mad is the opinion of P. Y. Gillson, who enjoyed this experience on Lakeview hill, near Carson, the other night.
The coyote was game, according to Gillson, but was so badly cut up that it was unable to walk. It before it bit any one. Gillson was accompanied on the trip by County Commissioner Henrich.
COUNTRY SHORT OF PENNIES.
Mints Working Twenty-four Hours a Day to Relieve the Conditions
Day to Relieve the Conditions.
Washington. — What this country needs today is more pennies, says the treasury department. To that end the Philadelphia and San Francisco mints are working twenty-four hours a day and the treasury mints sixteen hours a day turning them out.
A lot of reasons are given for the shortage, the chief one being the increased use of the copper coins, with every dealer in everything adding a penny every now and then.
Baseball an Element in Will Fight.
New York. — When Ernest G. Worrell, millionaire, hit deathbed ceased to ask whether the Gloria won or lost, Katherine Hass, employed in the household, knew a "great change" had come. She testified in the $2,000,000 will contest before Surrogate Cohalan, in New York.
Old Woman Starks Ranch.
Salma, Kani—Mara. Minerva Conway, seventy years old, has gone to Mexico, where she will settle on a farm. She takes 292 hours of war veteran's widow. She takes 292 hours adjoining a claim her son settled on two years ago. She will make it a stock ranch.
PRINCESS TO WED
Ceremony Is Expected to Unite Japan and Korea.
EMPEROR TO SANCTION IT.
Prince Yi, Prospective Bridegroom, In Twenty Years Old and Princess Fateen—Young Prince is a Student in Military Academy, From Which Hell Be Graduated Next Year.
Tokyo—The secret already suspected of the visit of Count Terauch, governor general of Korea, to Japan is now fully revealed in the announcement of the betrothed of Prince Yi, eldest son of the former emperor of Korea, to a lady of the Japanese blood, the Princess Masako Nashimoto, daughter of Major General Prince and Princess Nashimoto, says the East and West News agency. The prince is high in Japanese army circles.
The idea of the union and the choice of the lady are highly approved in Japan. Prince Yi is twenty years old, and the princess is fifteen, and both are receiving their education, so the marriage will not take place for a few years.
All the necessary arrangements have been considered except the formal sanction of the emperor and the formal approval of Prince Yi, father of Prince Yi, and Prince Yi, his brother—both stated to be matters of form. Count Terauch obtained the consent of the Korean princes before he left Seoul.
Princess Masako Nashimoto was born in November, 1901, and is now in the third year class in the Peeress school. She will complete her course in the middle grade in 1918. She is one of the best students in her class.
The young Prince Yi is a student in the Military academy, from which he will be graduated next year. Since he was brought to Japan by the late Prince Ito several years ago he has lived entirely according to Japanese custom. The idea of such a union originated with the late Prince Ito. No provision for a marriage of this sort is made in the constitution for the imperial family of Japan. As a result a revision in the constitution will be necessary.
MOTORMAN FOR HIS HEALTH.
Accident Discovers Son of Well to Do Parents on Sand Car.
New York. - How Frederick M. Hull, Jr. the son of well to do parents, became a motorman to regain his health became known after a collision between a trolley and a sand car of the Brooklyn Rapid Transit company.
Hull, who is twenty-four years old, was in charge of the sand car. As he was attempting to make a switch a passenger car in charge of John Doberty coming in the opposite direction collided with it. Doberty was taken to the Kings County hospital suffering from cuts and bruises.
It was learned after the accident that Hull was the son of Mrs. Irving T. Hynds, who married a second time.
In his earlier years he was a popular athlete in Erasmus Hall high school. On June 10, 1915, he disappeared from his home and was absent six days. To his surprise, a found was to be suffering from a nervous condition. His physician said he was suffering from amnesia and recommended outdoor employment. Four months ago he took the job as motorman.
GUM RACK FOR SCHOOLS.
Thinka Children Should Have it on Playgrounds.
Madison, Wis.—The State Educational Bulletin, issued recently, comments favorably on a suggestion of President J. W. Crabtree of the River Falls Normal school that there should be gum racks in schools.
Wis.—He right to chew gum. said President Crabtree. "Teaches do it, but they know when and how. Why not teach these conventionalities to the pupils?
"Permit the pupils to chew gum on the playground and on the way to and from school. But what will the poor child do, with his gum while in the recitation or assembly room? A gum rack at the entrance of the room containing a number and peg for each pupil solves the problem."
This is Some Family.
Beres, Ky.—Mr. and Mrs. Reuben Davidson of this city have eleven children, 100 grandchildren and thirty-two great-grandchildren. Their children, in the order of their ages, with their offspring, are as follows: Mrs. Hensley, fifteen children and twelve grandchildren; Mrs. Barrett, ten children and ten grandchildren; Mrs. Baker, eight children and three grandchildren; Daniel Davidson, twelve children and eight children; Mrs. Davidson, eight children; Mrs. Robbins, eight children; Samuel Davidson, eight children; Mrs. Spurlock, eight children and one grandchild; Mrs. Robbins, five children; Mrs. Gilbert, five children; Caleb Davidson, three children.
Didn't Believe in Banks.
St. Louis - Stories of gold pieces on a tray stacked six inches high, large sums buried in out of way corners of a building, amount of blubs of large denominations stuck between the leaves of a family Bible form the basis of a suit brought in probate court by the heirs of George V. Miller, a wealthy farmer, who didn't believe in banks.
GIFTS FOR HOLY LAND
American Collier Will Carry Relief For War Sufferers.
New York.-America's 1916 Christmas ship for the relief of unfortunate victims of the war will leave New York Dec. 1. The American Red Cross is co-operating with the American committee for Armenian and Syrian relief in collecting foodstuffs and clothing to a government collier placed at the district of the latter committee by Secretary Daniels.
The collection of the Christmas ship cargo is in the hands of Albert W. Staub of the American Red Cross receiving and distributing station at Bush terminal, Brooklyn. Mr. Staub has already received countless bundles of old clothing, unavailable for the cargo, as military regulations preclude the shipment of second hand clothing in this cargo. He said, "It must be emphasized that the only clothing America can send to the unfortunate ones in Turkey must be new and must be sent prepaid to the American Red Cross terminal, Brooklyn." Mr. Staub said of the following letter from the war relief information and shipping office: "It is more than significant that the first letter to go out from the newly organized Red Cross war relief information office has to do with a Christmas ship. It is doubly significant that it is to take relief to a people living so near the Holy Land."
Ex-Pickpocket, With Twenty Years' Prison Record, Talks to 400 Men.
Mike Hickey, once a notorious pickpocket, with a record of nineteen and a half years behind prison bars, told 400 men at the Harlem branch Y. M. C. A., New York, how he straightened out and how other inhabitants of the underworld could be helped to do the same.
Mike's career as a thief lasted until about four years ago, when he wandered, fresh from Sing Sing, into the Cremorne mission, on Thirty-second street. It ended there. Now he is night man at the Bowery Y. M. C. A. and passes his spare time helping his old pals from Danaemora and Sing Sing to get their feet on the "straight and narrow."
The trouble with the newly emerged convict, he said, was the old story—out into the world with a $10 bill and a wish to keep straight; a job until a cop told the boss of his record, then no more job; broke; one more trick to get money to eat; caught, and back to prison.
What the convict needs is a bit of belief and encouragement when he starts to reform, and Hickey, that more and more the employers are beginning to give this, so that many men with long records as criminals are now taking their places in honest life.
MOSQUITOES CLOSE MILLS.
Pest of Insects Compile Plants to Shut Down.
Connell, Tex.-The Gulf coast region of east Texas and the western part of Louisiana have been afflicted with the worst scourge of mosquitoes ever introduced.
Several large lumber mills were forced to close down on account of the pest. Men and animals were tortured by the bites of the insects. Cattle and horses were attacked by veritable hordes of mosquitoes, and the animals huddled together in groups in an effort to protect themselves as much as possible from the bites.
On the farm these fire fires were kept burning constantly to drive away the pests, but these efforts seemed to be of little avail.
HONOR SCHOOL JANITOR.
Veteran Held That Post in the Building For Years.
Indianaapolis, Ind.-Shortridge high school of this city each year renders tribute to the memory of some man or woman who has helped in the upbuilding of the institution.
After discussing the names of several men who had risen to a place of high esteem in the world, chose to honor James Biddy, for twenty-five years junior of the institution.
A tablet recounting his faithful labors and telling of the cheer he imparted to "his boys and girls" during a quarter of a century has been placed in a conspicuous place in the halls.
Onion and Cracker Diet.
Kankakee, Ill.-With property valued at $2,500, with no appetite except when his wife buys the food, at which times he eats "copiously," Palmer, eighty-three years old, maintains that "an onion and a cracker" are enough for any at a meal, according to the allegations made in a bill for separate maintenance by his wife Dorn. She says that for his comfort she trumped his beard and cut his hair.
Killed Himself Running.
Bremerton, Wash.-Because Wesley Antony, fifty-four years old, did not want to be late for work effort he ran seven miles around the shores of Puget sound. When he arrived at the navy yard he collapsed and died a few moments later in the Marine hospital.

Financier Sees Somme Battle From an Aeroplane.
BEHIND THE GERMAN LINES.
Henry P. Davison of J. P. Morgan & Co. Course Leisures Up and Down In Wide Circles Over Battlefield For an Hour, Watching Mighty Drama Directly Below.
New York—To climb into a French armed aeroplane during moments of a terrific final assault on the Somme, then to course leisurely up and down and in wide circles over the battlefield for an hour watching between one's side sides the mighty drama directly below and finally to fly more than three miles straight back over the Germans' country during the battle and get away with it—that would be a flying trip which most Americans would want to talk about when they got home. But not Henry P. Davison of J. P. Morgan & Co. who arrived "home from the wars" on the American liner Philadelphia, accompanied by Mrs. Da-

vison and daughter, Miss Alice. Mr. Davison had done all those things in the air while in France, but he did not see them. He was on a plane, Mr. Davison said that he ascended at Peronne. The French officer first had taken him to a great height—about a mile—and then had swung out over the great guns booming far below.
The biplane in which they flew, Mr. Davison said, was arranged admirably for observation of the bombardments and infantry fighting below, and the great height at which he viewed the battle-ft was on Sept. 27 last—an tremendous sweep of battle ridden country at all times.
He had made a pretty thorough tour of the trenches at Verdun also, he said in answer to further questions about experiences at the front. Then he had devoted six days solely to traveling by automobile and on foot along the whole line of trenches from Verdun to the British trenches on the Somme. On a nearby table as he spoke was a rusty looking German helmet and rustler shell case which had picked on battlefields, and on the same table as the steel helmet of France which General Petain had given to him to wear in the trenches.
"No, it wasn't altogether idle curiosity that took me to the front." Mr. Davison said in reply to a final question. "As somebody has put it, there is an opportunity to see his history in the army through curiosity, but because I wanted to learn something of military advancement at first hand."
POTATOES LIFT MORTGAGE.
Jersey Farmer Raises 9,200 Barrels on Eighty Acres.
Red Bank, N. J. — Henry Holmold raised 9,200 barrels of potatoes on eighty acres this year. This was at the rate of over 110 barrels and acre.
With the proceeds from the yield he paid off a $20,000 mortgage still remaining on his farm, which he purchased three years ago for $7,000, paying $7,500 down.
Holmold's crops on 150 acres, where he didn't plant potatoes, returned for the year a profit which the farmer calls "pure velvet."
Ring Upon a Radish.
Tiffin, O. — Four years ago, Mrs. W. H. Souger lost a heavy gold band ring in her garden. The other day she pulled up a radish and found the ring firmly fastened about the root.

‘The Birth of a Wild Flower.
Iwas a tiny seod

Shrink from the blow of hard-knuckled

Sickly grin when your women they

And heel to white men like a belly-

Fatuously applaud bombastic praise,
Ot pseudo heroes of abolition days.
Fervidly sing,-“My Country "Tis of

“I would deprecate the formation of
a regiment composed wholly of men
of, any one nationality,” he added
whether they be German, French

to draw the very racial lines which 1

‘The mayor ought to have added that

themselves segregated. It was a great

MISS ALBRETA C. BELL'S
Piano Recital Last Week Was a
Great Musical Treat.
The piano recital that was given
by Miss Albreta C. Bell at St. James
A. M. E. church on Friday evening
of last week was a grand success in
every way and was quite gratifying to
doth Miss Bell and her many friends
who crowded the church. She was
assisted by-Mr. Robt. S. Strong at the
organ, Mrs. Harriet Loomis-Oliver,
soprano; Mrs. Harriet Grissom-Hall,
contralto, and Mrs. Addie Crawford.
‘Minor, soprano, also shared with the
rapturous applause that followed each
number. Mrs. B.C. Archer and Miss
Marienne Jeffrey, a8 accompanists,
could not have been surpassed. Taken
/as a whole it was one of the greatest
musical treats our city has enjoyed
‘in a very long time and was a fitting
‘compliment to our young, brilliant and
rising artist.
Messrs. B. C. Archer, J. H. Goins
and James Combs acted as ushers.
‘Miss Bell was the recipfent of two
magnificent bouquets and a basket of
flowers from enthusiastic friends.
‘Mrs. Minor responded to an encore
by singing as only she can, “Coming
‘Thro’ the Rye.”
Miss Albreta C. Bell, captivated
large audience at St. James A. M. E.
churelr Friday evening, Nov. 3rd.
Exceptional versatility was dis.
played in her interpretation of a Pol-
Ish group of “Preludes” by Chopin.
(1) “Pulsating—Full of Life,” was re
splendent with joy and melody. (2)
“Pensive—A Little Poem,” displayed
a delightful pfantesimo. (3) “Grave—
—Bthical,” was reverential in thought
(4) “Marzurke—‘Sithouetfe, was in
teresting and beautiful. (6) “Vivid—
Flash of Sunlight,” was a brilliant ren
dition, without the slightest degree o
harshness. . (6) - “Recitative — Sono
Tous,” was masterful in rendition with
‘unusual ‘clarity; of tone..-.(7), “Aerial—
Swinging Fantasy,”. was invigorating
(8) “Concise — Dramatic.” displayec
‘technical facility, so.,highly essentia
in dramatic themes.
Her second offering wa8 a Russiat
group. (a). “Ruins of Athens,” (b)
Prelude by Rachmaninoff. This grouy
was admirably rendered, the forme!
especially beautiful “and comprehen
sible. ‘The English “group, (a) “Au
dalia,” (b) “Humoresque. by Cole
ridge-Taylor, was delightful and en
thusfastically received.
‘The American group, (a) “To a Wil
Rose,” (b) “To the Sea,” (c) “Polo
| naise,” by E. A. MacDowell, was giver
unstinted applause.
‘The program closed with “Mephist
Walzeo” by BusontLiszt. The. rer
dition of this magnificent walse. in
finitely complicated with its phenom
inal technique stamped Miss Boll a
an artist of Feal talent.
