English Prima Donna

Sings "Battle Hymn

. at Popular Concert LONDON, Sept 13. An American surprise was sprung on the fashionable audience at the opening of the annual series of so-callod "Popular Concerts," which for ft generation have been a weekly feature of the musical season in London. The soloist of the afternoon was Miss Carrie Tubb, perhaps the most popular of native English prlmadonnas. In response to the customary demand for an encore, she Rang with splendid dramatic effect the famous "Battle Hymn of the Republic." When tho irst notes of the piano accompaniment tinkled out there were some smiles among the audience, who knew the a!r principally as used by the Salvation army to carry a religious song in its open air meetings. But the intense fervor of the singer swept all before her, and the song was heard in breathless silence and bailed with enthusiastic applause.'

MURRETTE Eugene Pallette,' the clever juvenile man who is seen in support of House Peters In the Pallas-Paramount production "The Heir of the Ages," which wfll be at the Murrette on Friday and Saturday, is the village cut-up and practical Joker of the Morosco and Lanky studios and when he was informed that he was to be a cave man in this production, he hied himself to his dressing room and shortly appeared clad in the desired skin garments. He faced the camera for the usual test and then slowly revolved while the camera ground. As the cave man turned his back a large "Bath" in letters six inches high, appeared. In order to piece out his garments, the clever genius had employed a bath mat to take the place of the leopard skin. It is needless to say it did not pass the studio censor.

RECRUITER HAS DAUGHTER

M. B. Goldfarb, navy recruiting officer, and wife, are the parents of a daughter born Thursday morning. The baby has been named Florence Rose.

IS NOW AT GREAT LAKES

Joseph M. Warren, who enlisted in the navy, passed the rramlnation at Irdipapclis, and is now In training nt the central station on tho Great Lakes. Many of ih homes In Chinese In Nadon, Hainan. China, use simply constructed stoves modeled after one invented hv the missionaries for use In the hospital kitchen.

"Aye," they agreed. "There be many In Khinjan!" Mere mention of the clace made them regard Orakzai Pa-

than and hakim with new respect, as

having right of entry through the forbidden gate. "Then I have it!" the Pathan announced tft once, for he was awake to opportunity. "Many of you can hardly march. Rest ye here and let the hakim treat you. Bull-with-a-beard bade me wait here for a letter that must go to. Khinjan today. Good. I will take his letter. And in Khinjan I will spread news about pardons. It is likely there are fifty there who will dare follow me back, and then we shall march down the Kbyber like a full company of the old days! Who says that is not a good plan?" There were several who said it was not, but they happened to' have nothing the matter with them and could have marched at once. The rest were of the other way of thinking and agreed in asserting that Khinjan men were a higher caste of extra-ultra murderers whose presence doubtless would bring good luck to the venture. These prevailed after considerable argument. Strangely enough, none of them deemed the proposition beneath Khinjan men's consideration. Pardon and leave to march again behind British officers loomed bigger in their eyes than the green banner of the Prophet, which could only lead to more outrageous outlawry. They knew Khinjan men were . flesh and blood humans with hearts as well as they. But caution had a voice yet. "She will catch thee In Khinjan Caves," suggested the man with part of his nose missing. "She will have thee flayed alive!"

"Take note then, I bequeath all the i

women in the world to thee! Be thou heir to my whole nose, too, and a bleseins!" laughed the Pathan, and the butt of the jest spat savagely. In the Hills there is only one explanation given as to how one lost his nose, and they ail laughed like hyenas until the mullah Muhammad Anim came rolling and striding back. By that time King had got busy with his lancet, but the mullah called

him off and drove the crowd away to a distance; then he drove King into the cave in front of him, his mouth working as if he were biting bits of vengeance off for future use. "Write thy letter, thou! Write thy letter! Here is paper. There is a pen take it! Sit! Yonder is ink! Write, now, write!' King sat at a box and waited, as if to take dictation, but the mullah, tugging at his beard, grew furious. "Write thine own letter! Invent thine own argument! Persuade her, or die in a new way! I will invent a new way for thee!" So King began to write. In Urdu, for reasons of his own. He had spoken once or twice In Urdu to the mullah and received no answer. At the end of ten minutes he handed up what he had written, and Muhammad Anlm made as if to read it, trying to seem deliberate, and contriving to look irresolute. It was a fair guess that he hated to admit ignorance of the scholar's language. "Are ther- any alterations you suggest?" King asked him. "Nay, what care I what the words are? If she be not persuaded, the worse for thee!" He held it out, and as he took it King contrived to tear it; he also contrived to seem ashamed of his own clumsiness. - "I will copy it out again,"he said. The mullah swore at him, and conceiving that some extra show of authority was needful, growled out: "Remember all I said. Set down she must surrender Khinjan Caves or I swear by Allah I will have thee tortured with Are and thOYns and her, too, when the time comes!" Now he had said that, or something very like it, in the first letter. There was no doubt left that the mullah was trying to hide ignorance, as men of that fanatic ambitious mold so often will at the expense of better judgment. If fanatics were all-wise, it would be a poor world for the rest. "Very well," King said quietly. And with great pretense of copying the other letter out on fresh paper he now wrote what he wished to, say, taking so long about it (for he had

to weigh each word), that the mullah strode up and down the cave swearing and kicking things over. "Greeting?," he wrote, "to the most beautiful and very wise Princess Yasmini, in her palace in the Caves in Khinjan, from her servant Kurram Khan the hakim, in the camp of the mullah Muhammad Anim, a night's march distant in the hills. "The mullah Muhammad Anlm makes his stand and demands now surrender to himself of Khinjan Caves and of all his ammunition. Further, he demands full control of you and of me and of all your men. He is ready to fight for his demands and already as you must well know he has considerable following in Khinjan Caves. He has at least as many men as you have, and he has four thousand more here. "He threatens as a preliminary to blockade Khinjan Caves, unless the answer to this prove favorable, letting none enter, but calling his own men out to join him. This would suit the Indian government, because while the Hills fight among themselves they cannot raid India, and while he blockades Khinjan Caves there will be time to move against him. "Knowing that he dares begin and can accomplish what he threatens, I am sorry; because I know it is said how many services you have rendered of old to the government I serve. We who serve the raj are one one to remember one to forget one to help each other in good time. "I have not been idle. Some of Muhammad Anim's men are already mine. With them I can return to India, taking information with me that will serve my government. My men are eager to be off. To be continued
