WDMEN li EGYPT askemancipatioh!

Many of the Ladies Have Abandoned "Bourkah" for Lighter Veil. Ily 1 1. .noim. CAIRO. July 20. A Kreat movement is on foot in Ksypt for the emancipation of woman. Notwithstanding tho roar of battle within mea.su rraMe (ii.stance, of the capital the movement ia steadily taking shape. Without doubt it will brins about a j-'reat radical change in this tirne-bouxid land and ttfeet a Kreat step toward the modernization of the country. A nturnl-lintr-Mcck fxists at the moment In the religion inspect of th?, case, a-s a Moslem will never ahate one Jot or tittle of his faith. Uut the difficulty La not insuperable. The conpervativc hold that there is nothing in the Koran which shames a woman to display her features. It rcM.s with the rector of Ml Azhcr and the Krand mufti, the highest exponents of Moslem law, to M'ttle this difference, if they can be persuaded to do so. Aj a matter of fact, many of the Egyptian princesses and o'.her ladies Ih decree at C;:iro anri else where '"p ?n far bent to modern customs a 10 wear veils of a. light muslin fabric of the finest texture, wtich rather lends to their attractiveness, and hivc discarded the old "bourkah. or heavy veil, worn in many parts of the country. On the other hand, the peasant woman goes about with uncovered face all the time. The trend of public opinion, however, is progressive. The old "bourkeh" is domed. With the education and enlightenment the Kypgtian woman is now enjoying she lias realized that she is no longer a slave to her husband or father. Thus it is safe to assume that the muslin or silk veil, which is at present worn, will in its turn disappear and the native Mgyptian woman of high degree will soon ho going about the streets with an open face, as her European and American sisters do. "Mere man" will not have a say in the new departure, any more than he had in the replacement of the thick veil by the present flimsy veil. The present upward trend of woman from eastern slavery will bring her that emancipation she is entitled to, religious opposition notwithstanding. Many of the older member. of the community are raising the cry that the new departure will tend to greater immorality, but this is refuted by pointing" to the Coptic Catholics, who are as well able to take care of themselves as are any other women in the country. The one great point of agreement is that all favor the higher education 01 women, and arree tha.t woman is meant to be man's helpmeet and not his slave. The Egyptian newspapers tire warmly discussing the pros ami cons of the movement, in which many many women are taking part. Every sympathizer has the right to be gratified at the presnet outlook of the discr :sion, as it augurs well for the fu. ture of the Moslem women. MINNEHAHA ARRIVES Liner Heavily Iulen With Ainmunl. Hon in I'lynioutii, Ilngiaiul. rLYMOlTIf, Eng.. July 20. The steamship Minnehaha which put into Halifax on fire from an explosion supposed to have been caused by a bomb, arrived here Monday.

J generally, will have occasion and opportunity next Tuesday nU'ht closing: night of the chautauqua to hear Mbs ! Alive Xeilson. who alternated singing parta in Xt-vv York citv "'th Nordica, At Mfflt 'B'atterflr. As Margherita. (Thol ky Cfakckrinr) nni i heaters Tin: .vnnToim'M. r.urr Mcintosh is the Hero or more correctly speaking the centn l figure of the motion picture drama "Colonel Carter of Cartersville." based on F. llopkinson Smith's well known novel of that name, to be shown at tho Auditorium today. The colonel is a lovable character in the book; on the screen Burr Mcintosh suggests the character in so graphic a manner that anyone who has read tho book would recognize him. The Colonel, as a young man, passes with credit through the civil war, and In later years entures to Wall st.. New York, where he cuts a ridiculous figure as a promoter. He offers to tight a duel with an incredulous financier; is jailed, and is released because the financier forgives him. In the civil war he had saved the life of a young fllov, who is the son of the Wall street financier. The Colonel finally becomes rich by the gift of a Southern lady whom he had befriended in his early days. There are some stirring war scenes in tho early part of the picture; the atmosphere is distinctly southern; the character. well drawn, consistently and well acted. Photographically and as a production. "Colonel Carter of Cartcrsville.,, is a very pleasing picture, which should delight-all lovers of high-classs corned' dramas. "The Honeymoon Pact." a Vitagraph comedy, featuring Eillian Walker will also be shown today. Tomorrow Charley Chaplin will be seen in a new two-reel Essanay. entitled "Work." said to bo one of the funniest pictures yet released. "The Sands of Dec." a Hiogiaph reissue, "The Criminal," a three-part Vitagraph, with a star ciit. including Maurice Costello. Norma Talmadgc and Van Dvke Krooko will also be shown. AT THE liASALEK.

Filr- Co.. under whose manigcment she made her lirst screen ipparance, to abandon the stase permanently and appear only in film productions. Miss Pa' n. who became celebrated hroughout the world as "The Pink i.idy,' and who nmre recently terminated a successful starring tour in The Debutante," is considered one of the most talented and charming stars on the American stage. Her acquisition to the screen on a permanent basis is an important event to all lovers of the photoplay, and her characterization of "Clarissa" in "(ambler's Advocate." may be accepted as a criterion of the many inarming roles between the charming St.. and the Fair ous Players. "We Should Worry." a comedy and the Animattd Weekly will also be shown. On Tuesday Petty Nan sen, the famous Kusian actress, will be seen in Tol.sti's powerful drama. "A Woman's i ? Pcssurcetion." The picture was U seen here two months ago and LJ re- U turned on account of th popular de-J f mand. It is another Petty Nansen j triumph, in which this wonderful j I wonderful woman if supported by iwojj. eminent n -stars, William J.

London. Though a pjit of the regular pro-ram the event :s i-eii.i; Roked forward I" locally as important to the local musical s ' a s 1 1 . The rop'Ttc.ire xif"n is trub- wonderful. What maU-. it still more interesting is the fact that it is Oi ;'.:nati'-. in itir- two years she was rith the M l Tnoli company she sang over 1 ,". nan.--, a re-cord most artists wfubJ . coritrnted with to say ihoi b.ist. In 1 1 0 D sho appeared in p'jston 1 as "Madame IJutterl! ." In r.'i'i she1 took parts in "Kigoletto," "Faust and j "E Enfant Prdigne." In 111 s again appeared in Iioston taking the part of Chonitaii: in "The Sacrifice. When sh2 was witii the San Carlo Opera Co. one day she would take the part of Kosina in the "Eaber of Sc'vili'." another day she would appear j in "Madame Putterlly'' and the third i day siie w ould piobably take the queen I in the "Huguenots." "Her Mimi" in ; Loheme fieated a most profound interst everywhere as did her "Margurite" in Faust. Had she never sang a note, her dramatic instinct and anil i'y alone would have placed among tho foremost actresses of her tho day. Jt has ben truthfully said that A'ic" Nielsen has more genuine natur aiuess on the itage than any other livin-: soprano. Her facial expression alone is an asset most artists would be glad to possess'. In concert, recital and opera work Miss Xielsen is always perfectly at home. The recital programs she has arranged for the great chautauqua clicnele show her at her best and demonstrate her splendid ability as an artist of high rank. For her evening recital she often chooses such selections as "Down in the Forest" (Uonald, "The Day is Uono" (Spross), "The Leaves and the Wind" (Econij, "Aria un bel di," i from Madarn Putterriy) (Puccini), "April," (Seiler), "Annie Laurie." (Scott), "Years at the Swimr" ( Peach). "Chant Venetian" (Eernberg) and scores of others. Her one aim in all her recitals is to satisfy her auditors. Her accompanists. William Peddick. pianist, and Karel Harli' ek, violinist, are artists who received their training from the best masters in both Europe and America. Miss Nielsen is a charming woman to meet. On the stage she appears like a young school girl. Her dress is simple. Few singers can courtesy like Alice Nielsen. She is gracious with her encores. Off the stage she is cordial and very entertaining. She is a well read woman and an apt conversationalist. She enjoys her chautauqua work immensely. She believes that a singer's greatest asset is her health. Jn this respect she says: "I have an unusually fine constitution and always have had marvelous health, never having had a severe illness. When at the age of eight years it became apparent (to my girl mind at least) that I was destined for a career as a singer I was made to know that a singer's best asset, next to ji. good natural voice, is perfect health; that poor health wil ruin the best voice. I hope that all aspiring young girls will take this seriously, for it is a fundamental fact. With perfect health one. may tire, but will rebound quickly. I do." The life of Alice Xielsen has been tilled with many fascinating incidents. One of her Kansas City friends tells the following ftory about how the famous prima donna made her first hit "I was in a grocery store near Twelfth and Locust sts. with Alice one day, when she was about 15 years old, I should Judge. A couple of boys of her age were plaguing her. She took it uood-naturedly for a a while, but finally warntr them to let her. alone. They persisted. Then, becoming exasperated she picked up an egg and threw it, hitting one of her tormentors squarely In the face. Of course the egg broke, and the boy's countenance was a sight for the gods. 1 understand she apologized afterward. This may be recorded as her first hit." According to W. Frank McClure tho guarantee that has been given to Alice Nielsen by Harry p. Harrison, manager of the Kedoaih chautauquas is said to be the hlghes since Barnum's spectacular Jenny Lind engagement. Indeed, it mitrht b said that Alice Nielsen's contract $ more favorable than Jenny Lind's fr she receives $r0.000 for a five m nths season and a share in the profit. above a certain amount. This is J.'.O.OOO for five months a. against Jenny Lbul's guarantee of three times that sum for considerably more than three-fold the length of time. The contract made by Parnum with Jenny Lind Is similar in many ways with that made with Miss Nielsen. Miss Lind had al lof her expenses paid and also the expense, of her accompanist, assisting artists and companions. Just so with Miss Nielsen. One of the item." that Jenny Lind put into her contract was that she was to be furnishe! with horses and a carriage in every place in which the party stopped. Miss Nielsen is to have an automotive. Mis N'iclsen's ehauinurjua tour began In Jacksonville. Fla.. on April is. Tn all the large cities' through the south. Charleston. S. C. Savannah, fla., P.irmingham. anil Montcomery, Ala.. Chattanooga. Tonn. and Lexington. Ky.. as well as the cities of smaller size she has been acocrded a reception that will never be forgotten. On Sept. .1 she will have sung in ll'O different cities in Florida, Georgia, North and South Carolina. Alabama. Tcnnesee. Kentucky, Indiana, Illinois and Michigan.
