A TALK WITH MISS YAW.

Miss Ellen Beach Yaw, who has be-
come famous through her wonderful
voice, is at the National She is slight
of figure with light blue eyes and light
wavy hair. Her face is delicate and
pleasing and she is withal very retiring
and modest and has a most charming

The very limit of my voice is the high +
fiat but l do not reach that in all my
concerts. Many class my voice as mezzo
soprano"
The music lovers of Topeka were
given the opportunity this afternoon of
meeting Miss Ellen Beach Yaw in the
parlors of the National, where an infor-
NAL reception was given for her. Her
charming manners and delicate type of
beauty quite won the hearts of all, and
after hearing her remarkable voice to-
night, she may count her cong uest COM
plete, as far as Topekans are concerned.
Miss Yaw wore this afternoon at her
reception an empire gown of pink chit
fon, embroidered in green over pink
surah. The sleeves were large putfs
reaching to the elbow and were met
by pale green suede gloves. An
iridescent girdle confined the short
waist and the slightly low V shaped
neck was outlined with iridescent pas
with rutf1e of pink lace around the
bottom. Her coiffure was the same as
seen in her pictures and is decidedly pic
turesque.
Palms, ferns and hydrangeas adorned
the parlor and the dozen ladies who re-
ceived with her wore pretty afternoon
gowns.
DR.. Guibor examined Miss Yaw's throat
this afternoon and the JOURNAL reporter
was permitted to peep. The doctor pro-
nOunced the construction of the vocal
organs perfect Her vocal cords are I'M
usually delicate and thin. DIR. Guibor
pronounced the lady's throat the most
perfectly formed for vocalization that he
had ever seen.

Sensational Scene Made by Bourke Cock
ran Last n light.
NEW YORK, May 15.-Bourke Cochran
created a sensation last night at the
opening of the Catholic educational hos
pital at Grand Central Palace here. After
Archbishop COrrigan had delivered an
address Cochran began his speech. He
was evidently excited.
"To declare" said he, ''that the Catholic
church is hostile to the repub bile, is to
declare that the mother is hostile to her
offspring. Those who tell US that the
Catholic church and its educational sys-
tenn is hostile to this government must
speak falsehoOd. We cannot have
il otherwise. What the church is
doing today in the parochial schools
is just the same as she did
in ages gone by. 1 believe the time has
come when Catholics should assert them
selves and say that they, above all others,
are the men whose training and faith
compel them to live citizens of this re-
public"
Then came the sensation. Mr. Cock
ran was speaking of the loyalty of the
Catholics to the republic. Turning
toward the archbishop, and advancing
with fOrefinger outstretched, he declared
with impassioned eloquence that he
would accept the teaching of the church
from his grace with the utmost reve-
renee, "but if the day should ever come"
and here Mr.. Cockran's voice rose until,
echoed through the big hall, the
rafters rang, ''but if the day should
ever come" he was now so close to
the archbishop that his Outstretched fore
finger almost touched his nose, "when
from pulpit you utter one word hostile
to the integrity of this government, 1 tell
you that if such language falls from
your lips, it will be hereticaL You will
be false to the republic and false TO the
church that placed the cOnsecrated oil
upon your hands for the blessing of your

ran through the hall, quickly followed
by a great burst of applause
