MAKING SUCCESS ABROAD
Miss Myrtle Lee is Given Special Mem
ton for Her Singing in a Ber-
lin Concert.

The many friends Of Miss Myrtle
Lee will be gratified to know that
she is meeting with splendid success
in her study of voice culture in Ber-
lin, Germany Possessing an intui-
tive and natural talent for music,
Miss Lee has devoted most of her life
to her art, and the browning feature
of it all was when she was able to
cross the water and study in Berlin.
That she has applied herself with
mercy in her work has been demon
strated by her being called upon a
second time to appear in a recital
given by the Stern conservatory OF
Berlin. The correspondent of the
Musical Leader, published in New
York n Chicago, Of a recent date
made mention in its Berlin cores
pondence Of the Stern recital in
which Miss Lee figured as a soloist
OF the event. Below we publish the
extract concerning the recital:
The proves of the orchestra Of

this occasion, Of the first con-
cert of the orchestra and soloists,
unusually ambitious members found
a place on the program. In addition
to contributing support to the various
soloists, in the Beethoven and DIAL
bert concertos and arias from Weber
n Bruch's works, the orchestra
gave a very satisfactory reading of
the unfinished symphony Of Schubert,
and later Of the Vorspiel and Liebe's
God, from Triston and Isolde. Direct

novitiates to surprising musical
deeds. Among the singers. especial
mention must be made Of the work
done by one of the strong American
contingency. of which the c%onserva-
tory boasts. This was the singing
of the big dramatic Aria from the
Odysseus Of Max Bruch, by Myrtle

To Keep Brushes Clean

The best way in which to clean
hairbrushes is with spirits Of am
monia, as its effect is Immediate. No
rubbing is required and cold water
can be Used just as successfully as
warm. Take a tablespoonful of
ammonia to a quart of water, dip
the hair part of the brush without
wetting the ivory and in a moment
the grease is removed, then reinse
in cold water, shake well, and dry
in the air, but not in the sun. Soda
and soap soften the bristles and In
variably turn the ivory yellow.

Young Klein
Breaks Jail
Boy Held as Witness Does Stunt in
Matron's Department and
is Free.

BY breaking through two transoms COW
cred with strong iron screening, stealing
a clothesline and sliding down it to the
ground after fastening one end to a bed
post, Carl Klein, who says he is only II
years Of age, escaped from the matron's
department in the second story OF the city
jail building late Saturday afternoon.
A score or more Of prisoners in the city
and county jails, but not a single officer
or deputy, witnessed his successful Jail
break. The prisoners softly applauded the
venture. gave Klein words of encourage
ment and loudly rejoiced after he had got
ten away.
He had been locked in a combination
room and cell on the second story of the
police station by Matron Ellen Gibbons,
who was called away for half an hour on
business. When she returned she imme-
diately discovered that he had escaped.
Although an effort is being made to find
him, the police have not yet succeeded,
Klein was not regarded as an important
prisoner, although held over by order Of
Police Judge Crawford since Friday. He
was arrested by officer Mccarthy Friday
afternoon and was supposed to have been
a companion of an unidentified young
man who slightly cut Gus Virgien when
the latter demonstrated over an alleged
insult offered a woman.
Now the police believe tina Klein may
nave been the stabber. as he seemed so
anxious to get out of the hands OF the
officers. He had not been Identified, how
ever. and could not be connected with
the cutting affray Saturday. When placed
in Jail. he said he lived at 26ls North

War Sanders has such a tantalizing way
about him that the farther the game
progressed Sunday the hotter those 500
got, until after the fourth inning they did
not get a hit and but two men reached
first base. -Four hits were all that the
Ducklings could make during the session,
and Sanders passed but one and hit one.
why don't you hit it out-he's got moth

That is the jibe which is handed to a
batter as he returns TO the players bench
after a futile attempt to hit 'er out. They
an looked alike 10 Sanders. Tommy Camp
bell did not get a hit nor did Red Andreas.
BABY Hippo Towne was as putty in the
hands Of the little southpaw and did not
reach first But the players know why
they could not put IL out. Sanders is the
heodicst pitcher In the business, and while
they seem to san over the plate as large
as balloons. they are really in just the
place where the batsman does not want
item.

over 1000 lovers Of the greatest of all
outdoor sports turned out Sunday after
noon to enjoy an afternoons outing at
Viutou park, and right royalty were they
entertained by Pas colts. They saw a
pitchers battle IN which Sanders came out
ON top, and also received the best support.
The Sioux went to pieces back OF Alder
man in the second; and before they could
gather themselves together two runs were
scored.
Alderman is an old Omaha boy. formerly
reporter for The Bee, and he is beginning
90 be recognized as one Of the best pitch
ars in the Western league. He has mag
uificent curves and is gaining better con-
troll every year.
The 500 were the first to get any recog-
milton from the score board boy when in
the second inning they scored one. Ed
monson made the first hit Of the game-a
double-went to third on Welch's sacrifice
and scored on S~tovalls infield out.
Omaha passed the 500 in the third with
two runs. Cadman was the first man up
and Alderman hit him on the funny bone.
Sanders made a successful sacrifice and
Fisher knocked Alderman down with a
ferocious drive at his head, but the lengthy
southpaw recovered in time to subdue
Fisher at first, putting Cadman on third.
Cadman scored on Hunters error when he
droppeh a throw of Kings %grounder and
King went to second. Schipke hit to WEIGH
and the big fellow threw high and the
Skipper was safe and King on third.
