Now, as a simple business PROPOSE

1t would tend to promote a good fell

And this provision for dwelling to-

of the men and women painters of San

noblest achievement of the suggested

From many sources-and sources
reasonably sane-has come the sug-
gestion that some financier with loose
change erect a studio building in San
Francisco, such as Los Angeles, Chi
cago and New York possess, to wit: A
building whose topmost floor would
furnish equipment and light for studio
purposes, supplemented by a gallery In
the building where the artists could
exhibit
To be sure, this suggestion fouts the
honorable precedent of "rookery"
studios, many of which are interesting
from the viewpoint of association. And
it must be admitted that there IS q
charm about ratified old building,
within which an alluring studio Is set
up, with its PICTURES, rugs, brasses,
draperies statues and easels. 1t seems
to fit our ancestral notions of what a
studio should be-mellow and ripened
and in harmony with the old rugs and
draperies about.
But all this is mere tradition. and
tradition unsupported by reason-even
sentiment must have it's basis in rea-
son-cannot stand the sweep of the
tide of twentieth century progress. In
all truth is tradition already a me-
dieval institution.
Besides, the studio building would
not be an eleemosynary institution

Eight months of grand opera at the

Wiesbaden, where he was summoned to
sing Wagnerian roles, some time In the
Hamburg Opera-house, singing in forty
operas all told, is the way Mr.. Berthald
has put in his time since he was here
eleven months ago. How well he sings
can be judged from the fine freshness of
the voice after this long and strenuous
experience. It is as fresh as II he had
just begun to sing. Tristan, too, Loge
and Siegfried were among the tenor's
chief successes, and he was chiefly occu-
pied with the Wagnerian repertoire. An
unmeasured commendation seems to have
been all but unanimously given to his
efforts this last year, and one Is at no
loss to understand 1t.
To get Mr.. Berthald's kind of singer is
a distinct triumph for the Tivoli. For US

is said that 100000 foreigners have

FRANCE TAKES ACTION
RoJEsTVENSkY TOLD TO RIGOR.
OuSLY RESPECT NEUTRALITY
OF FRENCH WATERS.
USE OF FORCE AN IkPOSSIBiLITY
LACKS NECESSARY WARsHlPS TO
ExPEL RUSSIAN SQUADRON
FROM KAN RANA BAY.

Paris, April Pas a result of com
muniCations between the governments
at Paris and ST. Petersburg the Rus
sian government has forwarded urgent
orders To Admiral Rojestvensky to rig
orously respect the neutrality OF
French waters. This is a precaution-
ary measure. In addition special in
structions have been sent to the gov
ernor general of Indo-China, M. Beau,
and Foreign Minister Delcasse has in
structed the French minister at Toxic
to give the Japanese minister for for
eign affairs assurances that 1t Is
Frances purpose to preserve strict
neutrality, these being similar to the
assurances given to DR.. Motono, the
Japanese minister at Paris.
According to the official view the
foregoing steps should exercise a dis
tinctly calming influence upon Japan,
as they show France directly and
through Russia has adopted all avail
able means To insure respect OF the
neutrality of French waters. Ihe
officials say that the only additional
measure open is the use OF french
warships to employ force in expelling
Roiestyensky's squadron. Such
course, however, is said to be impos-
sible, owing TO the small number oil
French ships In Indo-Chinese waters.
Moreover, as am official remarked,
France lis not in the habit of resortlng
to such extreme measures as using
force. This is particularly true In
the case of Russia, owing 10 the com
plications which might arise from
France adopting forcible steps against
Russia. Therefore the instructions
already given from Paris and ST. Pc
tersburg are relied upon to prevent
Admiral Rojestvensky from encroach-
ing upon French territorial waters
Dr. Motono, in an interview, said
his request was that France observe
neutrality by adopting all the neces-
sary measures for preventing Admiral
Rojestvensky's squadron from remain
ing any longer In French territorial
waters at Kamranh bay. The minis
ter added that the Russian ships are
quite inside French waters and not
outside of them.

EViLVE, QUE, COMPLETELY

FLAMES MAKE RAPID HEADWAY
OCCUPANTS OF SECTION WHERE
BLAZE ORIGINATED UNA
BILE TO ESCAPE.

Montreal, April PA disastrous
fire broke out at an early hour and
reduced to ashes the convent in the
little village of st. Genevieve. One
nun, nine young ladies ranging in
age from eleven to eighteen years
and four old wOmeR lost their lives.
As soon as the fire was discovered
/ the villagers FASTENED to the scene.
Bucket brigades were hurriedly
formed and every possible effort was
made to save the building, but the
fire had gained such headway that IT
was soon apparent that there was no
chance to save it from destruction.
The occupants, aroused by the smoke,
attempted to grope their way out OF
the building Sister Marie Adjuteur, in
heroic efforts to save the lives of the
children in her charge, succumbed to
the smoke and flames. The pupils
who perished were in a portion of the
building where the fire had obtained
too much headway before the alarm
was given To enable those who re-
sponded to effect their rescue.
The fire started about midnight. An
effort was made to get Pointe Claire
by telephone so that assistance could
be had from Montreal
Meanwhile the fire was spreading
with fearful rapidity. The excite
ment was frightful as it became APP
parent that many lives would be lost.
The fire started in the old ladies'
hOspice and the smoke was so thick
that the children on the floor above
were unable to get down.
The building was a grey stone
structure handsome in appearance,
massive in character and, with the
church, it formed a central feature of
the pretty little village.
Two nuns, Sister Marie Therese
and Sister Marie Robertine, who
risked their lives saving children,
were so seriously burned that their
lives are despaired of.
