New York, Sept. 2. Mme. Marguerite Sylva, the prima donna who re
cently returned from France to sing In "Carmen," a the Manhattan opera
house, issued a warning to American
mothers who are sending their daughters to Paris for a musical education "American women are making a fa
tal mistake In trusting their daughters to the allurements, the pitfalls, of a
Parisian musical education," said
Mme. Sylva.
Thousands of sweet, guileless American girls go to Paris yearly in the hope of becoming great Bingers. How many of them come back with their
dreams realized and their lives un
stained? Mary Garden, Cavalleira
and a few others' Without reserve Mme. Sylva paint
d the immorality, the treachery of
the stage In Paris. She said that
girl with great talent might Bucceed
In the long run, even though she maintained her character, but that the pro
cess was infinitely slow.
"Girls are lured to their ruin by the
most diabolical ingenuity," Bhe declared. "They have to pay a dear urice for success in Paris. I have
seen It with my own eyes. Runs Away From Home.
"When I was 18 I ran away from my
home In Brussels because my mother
would not let me wear my best silk
dress in the rain. I thought she was
a tyrant, but I have learned better.
' "With 15 in my pocket I came to
America: My mother told me as left that I would write to her for mon ey. I never did.
"On my arrival in New York I went
the .rounds of the theaters and asked
for employment. The managers laughed. 'Why, my deaf girl, they said, 'you can't speak! How can you
expect to play?
"Finally, I had 10 cents left and there was no work. I had not eaten
for two days and was very hungry

Meantime I watched other people to
see what they took.
"I wanted the most I could get for
my ten cents. Finally I saw a wait

the biggest thing any one had ordered

"After I had eaten it all I went to
my room and became awfully sick, and - thought I was dying. People in the
house thought so, too, and sent for

it as made of layers of red, white-and green. - Then the doctor gave me med

He came every day. In a week; I was better, and then I learned that It was nt riht to eat the rind of water

The Japanese imperial and commer
cial junketing commission, which is
to tour the United States for the pur
pose of investigating the industrial
and commercial conditions in this country, will be invited to stop off for at least a few hours in this city while enroute from Cincinnati to Indianapolis. The proposition has been pre
sented to the different commercial or-
ganizations of the city and it is prob
able that they will unite in arranging
for the commission to stop here. The
commission expects to be in Indiana
polis early in November, probably on
November 2. It landed at Seattle,
Washington, yesterday, v
Richmond ranks first in certain
lines of industry. While its manu
factories are not as large, taken as a
whole, as many of the cities which the commission . will visit, yet the city of
fers many features in the industrial
and commercial world which other
cities do not offer. For instance the
city's output of lawn mowers is the
largest in the world; also its output of
threshing machines. The city in gen
eral has many things of interest such
as its park system, its streets, public
buildings and many fine private resi
dences, to offer as an attraction . for
an inspection such as that by the Jap
anese commission.
: Route Interesting.
' The commission will leave Seattle
September 6. going to Tacoma for
three days, then to Portland for a day.
Then it will go east, stopping at Spokane, Anaconda, Butte, Fargo, Duluth,
Minneapolis, t. raui, Macnson, Mil
wankee and arriving in Chicago September 24 for a three days stay. The special will make its first stop east of Chicago at South Bend on September 28, where a full day and evening will
be spent. It will then go on east, making one-day stops at Grand-Rapids, Detroit, Toledo, Clevelaud, Dunkirk, Buffalo, Rochester, Ithaca, Syracuse, Schnectady and reach New York for a three days' stop on October 12. The
party will then go to New Haven,
Providence, Boston and then head
back west, by way of Albany, Newark
and Philadelphia, arriving in Wash- i ington October 25. for another three days' stop. Baltimore, Pittsburg and Cincinnati will follow, and Indianapolis will be reached Tuesday, November
The trip on back to the Pacific
will be via St Louis, Kansas City, Omaha, Denver, the Grand Canyon, the citron district of California, San
Diego, Los Angeles and Oakland. Oakland will be reached November 17, and on November 23 the party will sail
from San Francisco for Honolulu and Japan on the steamship Manchuria.
Makeup of Party. The party is composed of distin
guished Japanese statesmen, financiers, commercial captains and trade
experts. A number of women are In the party.
Trade Experts. In addition to these on the trip will
be fifteen American trade experts and representatives of the Associated
Chambers of Commerce of the Pacific Coast. Indianapolis, Detroit Grand
Rapids and South Bend are to name
one ol the ten trade experts to be chosen by cities, the other five to be
appointed by the government Repre
sentatives of the Indianapolis, Detroit
South Bend and Grand Rapids civic commercial and industrial bodies will
meet In South Bend, probably this week or next to select the expert for
these four cities.

gram of the law enforcement conference. What Conference Is. This conference is not to be exclusively an anti-liquor conference, although is gotten up and promoted by the anti-saloon league. Other mat
ters of law enforcement also are to be considered, although it is presumed thathe question of enforcing the anti-
saloon and anti-blind tiger laws will
consume most of the time. Among other aublects to be discussed arc
horse racing, prize fighting and Sun
day desecration. On all of these subjects governor Marshall has pronounced views of his own and he has repeatedly stated his policy to be In op
position to law violations.
The anti-saloon league, however,
does not seem to be very well pleased
with the attitude assumed by governor
Marshall with reference to the con
ference, and it would not be surpria-

lng if the league should pass the word
around that the governor is not the
friend of the league. At the same time it is said that after the league representatives bearing the invitation had
departed from his office Governor Marshall cut a notch in his knife handle and said to himself, "This is number one." Are Many Delegates. It is expected that several hundred delegates from all over the state will be here to attend the conference. It
is announced as the intention of the anti-saloon league to have the various subjects under the general head of law enforcement handled by men who have made good at the job. It is expected
that on the program there will be a
judge, who has not hesitated to admin
ister justice In the cases of law violators; a chief of police who has made
arrests without fear or favor; a sher.
iff who has actually enforced the law;
a prosecutor wfco has prosecuted any
and all alike; and others who have en
forced the law as they found It on the statute books, regardless of political effect. In addition Attorney General Bingham, and several others will make
speeches. Avoids Terre Haute. The anti-saloon league has announ
ed that it will not take any hand in
the election at Terre Haute. In that
city the republicans and the democrats
both nominated candidates who are
not satisfactory to the temperance
people, and a few days ago an Independent convention was held and an independent candidate for mayor was nominated, who is supposed to be in
favor of clean city government and the enforcement of law. It was at first believed that the antl-Baloon league would get behind this man and help
push bis candidacy In the hope that he
might be elected, but the league offi
cers have announced that the league will not take any part in the Terre
Haute city campaign as an organiza
tion. The members will probably support the independent candidate for
mayor, but that will be about all.
It is understood also that the league will not undertake any more local ojv tion elections until next year, unless it should happen to take a notion to pull
off an election in St Joseph county.
Some of the league leaders are of the opinion that they could make St Jo
seph county dry by holding an election, and they may try it a little later
on, though it Is not by any means cer
tain that they will. But It is reasonably sure that nothing will be done in
any other county for a long time. i Among the 4,002 public schools for girls in Prussia there are 854 in which no instruction in gymnastics Is given.
