Why Not Eat Pie.

To the Editor IF The Evening Star:
Poor Marie Antoinette! The fair Aus
trian expiated on the guillotine whatever
sin she may have committed against the
French people. But 1t is simply shame
historical and ethical, that the story of her
apparent wantcn jest upon the misery of
the people, clamorous for bread, should be
again and again RECALLED
Your Paris letter writer repeats it. with a
variation. He says in Saturdays Star that
when told the people were starving for
want of bread Marie Antoinette said:
wv ny, L would as soon eat buns as bread
The point is obvious. Persons VINO could
not afford bread CT course could not afford
the more expensive buns. The story, as
usually told, is that she said she would as
socn eat pie or, if she could not get
bread. she would eat pie. What she did
say was that If they-the people-eould not
eat bread, why did they not eat pie crust?
At first blush this would seem as difficult
to obtain pie, and one remark would be
as cruel as the other. But there is an ex-
PLANTATION.
Marie Antoinette, the daughter of Maria
of Austria, was from the Tyrol. In this re-
gion the peasants, when flour was scarce
would cook their meat pies in covering
or Enclosure of sawduSt. This sawdust be-
coming impregnated with the juice of the
pie, would become pie crust. This was
usually given to the pigs. Sometimes, when
pressed with hunger, the people would eat
this pie crust. Marie Antoinette knew of
this, but did not know that in France there
was no such pie crust Hence her remark,
and her enemies, knowingly or not. warped
her innocent and natural remark so as to
give 1t an invidious significance. But the
error should not be perpetuated by those
who write for the information of the peo-
pie. w. H. SINGLETON.

WORK OF RosslNl CIRCLE
Scope Of an Organization Formed for Benefit
of the Blind.
Wonderful Musical Talent Developed
Wholly by Neutrality-suspicious.
Young's Aid Secured.

The Rossini Circle met last Monday
evening at the home Of Miss Helen Camp
bell, 221S g street. The circle is composed
Of talented musicians, all Of whom are
blind. Miss Alice Claire Danvers Murray
is soprano and vocalist of the circle; Miss
Kate L. Grady, pianist; Mr.. H. NJ. Hos
kris. violinist; Mr.. w. J. Oates. 'cellist. and
Mr.. G. B. Goss, manager and director.
Miss Murray has studied under Bischoff
for three years, and the blind pupil does
credit to her blind tutor. Her voice-a
beautiful dramatic soprano-is gifted with
a remarkable range and pureuess of tone,
carrying her with perfect ease and yocali-
zation from B fiat above the middle register
to G. natural below the middle register.
"A Dream of Paradise" Doris" Deep
In a Roses Glowing Heart" ard Schirer's s
'Sognai." the last named sung in Italian,
were all given with exquisite feeling and
artistic effect.
Miss Grady. also totally blind, is the ac-
companist and pianist of the circle and
ipterprets Chopin very satisfactorily. She
was a pupil for eleven years at the Mary
iand institute for the Blind, and taught
music for three years at the same institu-
ton. Her memory and method of memoriZ-
ing are truly remarkable
Bar After Bar Acquired.
Although her execution is correct and
full OF expression, her only means of learn
ing what she plays Is by having the com
position, its notes and values, read to her
by some one else. She memories bar after
bar OF the music just as one would a lesson
IN spelling. In this way Miss Grady ac-

nation OF Faust. was played by Mr.. Hos
Grady piano, in a way that delighted all
present. An arrangement by Holden of
20 SalutariS'' was also beautifully PLAYED
by Mr. Oates, cello.
The Rossini Circle was organized last
December a year ago, gave a concert in
February, and fine musical program at
st. Paurs Church in May. Under the man.
agement of Mr.. G. b. Goss, the circle is
now repairing for n concert to be given
early In November, for the benefit of the
home for the blind in this city, of which
Miss Helen Marie Campbell is the promo
ter.
Transcribes the Text.
Miss Campbell is possessed of unusual
gifts, both as a musical composer and s.
writer and transcriber in the blind text.
She has been blind since early childhood,
and has accomplished the great task of
making two copies of the Hymnal and one
OF the Psalter in raised letters for the
blind. She is deeply interested in widening
the scope of usefulness and learning for
her slGhtncsS friends, and has enlisted the
sympathy and interest Of the librarian of
congress, Mr.. John Russell Young who
has already promised that the blind of
Washington shall have every facility for

Blue4s of exaggerated size, together
with grasses and ribbon, decorate q
sailor hat Of fancy yellow straw The
flowers are massed in front and at the
left side. and at the right are punched
grasses and twisted loops of blue
and green ribbon. Such a hat could
be worn with gowns of various colors,
and either by blonde or brunette, the
hues suiting either type.
Just now the scroll is the favorite
conceit 1t assumes a multiplicity of
forms and is worked out in every sort
OF trimming. Sometimes it is merely
traced with beads or jewels. and again
it is wrought in passementerie or in
some of the numerous diaphanous tex
lures and outlined with jets, metallic
cords and the like. Points, too, are in
vogue, but not to the same extent.
An entirely new lining material, a
mixture of silk and linen. is called lus-
treine. 1t has silken gloss an rus
tie, is lighter in weight than taffeta,
and will be popular as Foundation
for all sorts of sheer textiles.

heliotrope or rose glace taffeta for re-
ception or carriage wear.

background for trimming of violets,

pleasing. The lace stands against the

qHE MARIE LOUISE

Or Empire Gown, Made OF Rich Brocaded
and Plain SILK, With Lace and Jewells&
band Trimming.
The historic styles, with some modi-
fications, receive their due share OF
patronage and the rich brocaded and
plain but lustrous silks are generally
chosen fer them. Yellow and red bro
cades in pale or deep tints. made up
in Josephine or Marie Antoinette fash
ion, will constitute favorite evening
toilettes for the coming winter. These
sumptuous textiles in any becoming
shades may be chosen and under gas
light the effect is regal. A brunette,
OF course, looks best in the deep rich
tones of red, primrose, or corn-yellow,
etc.; while the blonde maiden selects
the pale hues that set off her fair COM
plexion and flaxen hair most perfectly.
