BABY opera having proved successful

BABY opera having proved successful
Herr Humperdincls, the composer of
"Haensel and Gretel," has just COM
pleted another fairy tale called ti,e
Royal Infants" after story by e.
Rosmer, in which. as in his first opera,
the two leading parts are written for
women, who represent children.
In Germany the seed Of opera fell
upon stony ground. Heinrich Schultz
wrote music to translation of Peri's
Hafnc, which was performed for court
wedding Mt Porgan in 1927, but only
importations of Italian works with
italian singers came before the public
until nearly the end of the century.

MIXED MARRIAGES.
Cases In Which Mntrimony Brought
About Complications.

Cases In Which Matrimony Brought
About Complications.
The two following cases would be diff
icult to surpass. One was in England,
the other in Australia. Some time ago
n marriage took place in Birmingham,
which brought about very conpli-
Gated state of family relations. The
woman had been married three times
before, and each time had taken for her
husband a widower with children.
Her fourth husband was a widower,
and, as he had children by his first
wife, who was herself widow with
children when he married her, the new
ly married couple started their matri-
monial companionship with family
composed of the progeny of eight
previous marriages.
Another curious case was that Of DIR.
King. of Adelaide, widower, who
married Miss Norris. Shortly after
the doctors honeymoon the doctors son
married IL sister of the doctors wife.
Then n brother of the doctors wife
married the doctors daughter. In 9th
CT words, the doctors son became his
stcpmothcr's brother-in-law, and the
doctors daughter became her step
mothers sistcr-in-law. The doctor, by
the marriage of his son to the sister of
the doctors wife, became father-in-law
to his sister-in-law, and the doctors
wife, by the marriage of her sister to
her stepson, became stepmother-in-
law to her own sister. BY the marriage
of the brother of the doctors wife to
the doctors daughter, the doctor be-
came fathcr-in-law to his brothcr-in-
law, and the doctors wife became step
mother-in-law to her own brother. 1t is
an unsolved problem as to what rela-
tionship the children of the contracting
parties are to each other.

COMPULSORY EDUCATION BILL
The Measure Is Opposed by Representa-.

Seyfert Attempts to Tack on
Clause or Two.
Special to the Scranton Tribune.


Harrisburg, Pa, Feb. 2S.-Represen-
tative Farr. the champion of compul-
sorry education, won decisive victory
by the passage of his bill tonight
through the house on second reading
stage. The greater part of the day was
given to the consideration of the
measure Numerous amendments Were
promoted, but the friends of the bill
formed solid front and it passed with
out material change. There was no
doubt from the opening of the contest
but that it would pass, the struggle
being to keep out the undesirable
amendments that were showered upon
it by the enemies
Mr.. Seyfert, of Lancaster, who had
introduced a bill on the same subject,
opened the fight by trying to substi-
tute the first section of his bill for the
first section of the Farr bill This was
defeated by an overwhelming vote.
The Lancaster member, not deferred
by this setback, kept up running fire
of amendments as each section was
considered, but without avail, as the
house promptly and vigorously voted
them out of sight with one exception,
namely, to provide for the payment Of
the fines into the county treasury for
school purposes. This amendment Mr.
Farr favored, as he intended to offer
one for the same purpose.
The only other change made in the
bill was that made on motion of Mr..
Fow, to compensate assessors as they
are now paid for additional work neces-
sary 10 make the census enduration of
children.
Mr.. Farr was congratulated on all
sides for the persistency with which he
opposed the inimical amendments and
the victory he had won. Mr.. Farr says
that the opposition to the bill was
weaker than at either the session of
1898 or 1891 and he is confident that it
will pass the house finally by a larger
vote than il ever received

San Francisco, Feb. 2S.-The whisky
smuggling traffic has grown to such
enormous proportions in Alaska that
Uncle Sam has at last decided to re-
sort to heroic measures, The revenue
cutter Gorwin has been quietly fitting
out for a cruise for weeks past. The
Corwin today sails for the North, and it
has leaked out that she has been es-
pecially detailed to patrol the Alaska
coast from Sitka northward and to keep
a sharp eye out for Illicit traders.
The whalers and sealers who are now
fitting out for their annual voyage to
the frozen zone will be objects of spe-
cial attention at the hands of the Cor
wins officers, and in all probability
most Of them will be overhauled and
thoroughly searched before they have
an opportunity of landing their contra
band wares if they have any such on
board.

France Must Keep Hands OFF San DO
mingo.



By the United Press.
Washington, Feb. 2S.-Although the
three French gunboats continue in the
neghborhood of San Domingo, conf
dence is expressed at the state depart
ment that they will commit no overt
act pending the negotiations which are
now in progress. Assurances have
been given by France to that effect,
and the United States has no doubt
that they will be kept. 1t is learned
that the representations of the United
States to France are of such a nature
that France could not afford to pursue
too threatening ran attitude toward
San Domingo.
Under no circumstances would this
country permit France to seize the Gus
toms receipts of the little republic as
security for money demanded. Our
prior claims on San Domingo for debts
long due, and the settlement of which
this country has patiently awaited
without threats of seizure indicate suf-
ficiently our attitude in the matter.
