PATHS Narrow Escape From Burning
On my first appearance In Moscow
an exciting event occurred. Just pre-
vious to going on to the platform I ap-
preached the cheval glass In my dress
ing room to arrange the blossoms In
my hair, when the long muslin skirts
I was wearing suddenly caught fire
from spirit lamp. Fortunately l had
the presence Of mind to keep perfectly
still while those In the room extin.
guished the flames with rugs and
shaws. The danger was ovsr, and
naturally felt upset, but managed to
make my appearance and sing my role
In the usual way. However, on re.
turning to the dressing room the extrn
excitement was too much and caused
ME to faint. The news Of the miShnp
spread quickly. and the manager. with
the artists, came and congratulated
me on my escape. AMI there arose q
contention for the pieces Of muslin the
fire had spared. which were carried
off as trophies. 80. .lde!ina Fatti In
