WHAT YSiYE SAYS
Of JULIA KLUMPKE

Miss Julia Klumpke, the vioinist,
arrived on the Manchuria yesterday
for visit in the islands. She will
play in recital for the Ladies Morn
ing Music Club next Saturday even
ing at the Young Hotel.
OF her playing, the great violinist
Eugene Ysaye said Miss Julia
Klumpke, who has followed my clas-
sizes in violin. in. Brussels, already pos
sesses a solid artistic education; her
talent is sufficiently ripe to warrant
her in going alone in both artistic and
professional careers. I am certain that
she will appear to good advantage in
musical recitals, concerts, also that her
ability to teach will result in excellent
training for her pupils"
Since the writing of this, Miss
Klumpke has more than fulfilled the
prophecy of Ysaye in her concert work.
Tickets can be had from the mem
bers of the Club at one dollar each.

NAVY FOR RUSSIA
Battleship Fleet 'BeAFinished
by 1917 Will BeDAll of
Home Construction.

ST. PETERSBURG. Feb. 2o.-Repre-
sentativss OF the Russian Admiralty
submitted to-day to the Commission Of
National Defense of the Duma the
financial outline OF the rnuch discussed
naval programme. The matter was dis
cussed with open doors instead OF in
private. as had been expected.
The programme is 10 be completed In
1917. and II includes not only the con
structton Of a fleet of battleshiIrs but
also a certain amojInt OF hydrdgraphic
work at several of the ports of Russia.
The expenditures involved amount to
3l.01SG0, 600 and increases yearly from
the s43. 10000 already included in the
hdget Of 1908 for thu laying down of
four new bat1lesships to a maximum OF
Sl25. 0U in the ye3r 1914.
The expenditure then decreases to
Ss5. 100000 in 1915 and the subsequent
expenditures are to be maintained at
this figure One of the features of the
plan Is a DUPLICATE complement OF guns
for every srtp to be constructed
In reply to question Admiral
WirenIus I2iiet OF the General Staff OF
tn Navy, declared that the Russian
yards would be able to handle and
complete the entire programme. incluo-
ing the ins1 .iIation OF turbine machtn-
cry and other late developments in
naval cony ruction. The first ships
called for -ire 10 be completed in four
years and the others in three years
after they are laid down.
An alternative minor programme also
was subylitted. This provides for the
construction Of only four battle-ships
and A, fleet OF smaller vessels. The
estimskfd expenditure under this
sched't 'tJe is So25. .UyJ.O5N
The commission took no action and
severkl members advocated that the
matter be discussed at length before
the Duma. A conplete reorganization
OF the Admiralty IS generally held to
be Essential before the new programme
