new and interesting musicals theory has
been sprung in Chicago. where lids attracts
ing considerable attention, for it has in 1T
some strong elements Of reasonableness, al
though rather startling. It will certainly
bring out strong protest; but every limo
walton, good or bad. does that.
Miss Leila j. Howells, a clever dramatic
reader and teacher. declares her belief that
grand opera in the future will be spoken or
detained. The orchestral accompaniment
will remain the same and the substitution Of
the speaking for the singing voice will call
for an even greater art than is now the case
Vocal training for opera will then be more
extended and arduous than at present, but
people will not grow weary of listening to
grand opera, as they do now. E sfaS ~
AS proof Of her argument that the speak
ing voice is the only natural means of vocal
expression, Miss Howells cites the much
greater ease with. which dramatic Interpreters
hold the interest Of their audiences than

opera singing would be passing develop

CHIEF AYES RETURNS

-. the Louisville Police


Colonel Fred Ames, superintendent of
police, returned this morning from Louis
VILE, XIV, where he attended the annual
convention of police chiefs. He did not
care to discuss the recent police investi.
cation by the grand jury other than to
say that he believed indictments should
be returned In all cases where the evil
dence warranted it. Regarding the Louis
Vile convention. superintendent Ames
was more willing to talk. He was par
ticularly interested in comparing the po-
lice departments Of Minneapolis and
Louisville. According to his figures,
Louisville pays 100000 a year to main
tain a force of $40 men, while Minneapolis,
with 225 men, pays $217,O00 With the
population of the two cities about equal

ritory to patrol. . .'' 5s@.
Superintendent Ames also spoke of the
convention in particular which was one ct
the most successful that has been held
and<Which had a good attendance, there
being about $50 chiefs present. Several
papers were read which MI: Ames CON
siaered exceptionally good. The leading
one was read by Chief O'Neill, of Chi.
cago, on anarchists and Anarchism.' y
This paper gave the history of the move
ment and the steps that have been taken
by the police of Chicago to cope with it.
Chief O'Neill thinks there will be no
difficulty in meeting the conditions that
arise in this direction and that there is
no rea son for fear.

found especially pleasant and instructive.

son to send to the state federation reciprocity
bureau. The club always gives much atten-
ton to current newE, which Is presented in
