Tho cowardly Attacks Made on Afiss ivar
y zandf In Paris. I. 3
PARIS, March Marie Van Zandt, in
an interview, said the. wanton attacks that
had been made upon her had 80 affected
her nervous system thattor number ei
nights she could not sleep. The plaudita
and kindness Of her audiences had, how
ever, consoled her forthe injustice Of the
insults which had been offered by the
clique. which persecuted her. Miss Van
2andt said she hoped 10 sing again in
Paris, but 1t would not be until years
hence. "A number OF letters from Ameri.
cans appear in the Figaro protesting
against the treatment to which Miss Van
Zandt has been subjected, and expressing
surprise than the press Of Paris was not
unanimous in denouncing the torture In
fiicted upon the young American artistic,
when they are aware that the French are
always fayorably received in America. A
number Of students, who are indignant OF
the insults heaped upon the American
singer, have forwarded petition to the
Minister Of the Interior, praying that the
free admission Of journalists into subsi-
died theaters be forbidden, as, the petit
ton states, they keep q paying public
freezing outside. t
