The Charlton Cnse.

To the Editor OF the Evening Star:
1t has long been the custom to turn
Americans that commit crimes In Italy
over to the Italian government, so that
they may be tried in hat country
Since this is the custom Porter Charl-
ton must be returned. The custom,
however, does not prove that this is
the wisest thing to do. Charlton is
undoubtedly insane and unless he be
confined to an asylum for the insane
the Italian government will perpetrate
an injustice upon this man.
No person of normal mind would have
committed the crime of which Charlton

Nine. Nordica, an American, believes
America singers have been insulted
because they were ignored in the pro-
duction at the Metropolitan Opera
House, of Puccini's Girl of the Golden
West" an opera with a California set
ting, and adapted from an American
play.
Incidentally, Nine. Nordica says she
has been invited to sing in Paris, Lon
don, Berlin and Boston the coming
year, but has received no invitation
from the management Of the Metro
politan. She would have it inferred
that American singers are discriminat-
ed against there. Her claims concern
ing the Girl of the Golden West will
win some support. She says:
1T should by rights nave been sung
in the English language. No other
opera house in the world would have
allowed singers of it's own nationality
to be ignored on such an occasion. The
Americans seem to have been good
enough for everything excepting the
one American opera that Puccini has
written"

1t often happens when a man is 10

kindness to advance him, particularly
if the advancement places him in a
strange and unfamiliar field of en-
deavor.
AS commissioner Of weights and
measures in New York, Clement J.
Driscoll was rapidly acquiring a repu-
tation. His style of activity seemed
peculiarly adapted for h%urry-up, spec
tacular work among the short weight

Side
Not only the daily papers, but ten
and even fifteen cent magazines were

The arrest by Federal authorities of
the promoters OF an alleged school.
which essayed to teach art by mail,
will not seriously cripple Art in this
country.
A long preliminary investigation had
convinced postal authorities that the
men now seeking bail were little, If at
all, concerned In Art for Arts sake. 1t
was rather a case of alleged art for
coins sake.
Persons who are just crazy about art
and can tell an old master by a glance
at the signature, If 1t is genuine, have
felt that perhaps art in this country
was getting no particular uplift by
such absent treatment as this particu-
lar school sought to give 1t.
The percentage of graduates of the
school-S0 out of 10000 enrolled in the
past few years having finished the
course-was felt to be too small by an
overwhelming majority.
Perhaps, though, after all, the school
might lave remained unmolested had
the promoters observed the formality
of employing artists as teachers.

LOCAL APPLE FAIR
OPENS WEDNESDAY

The Hood River Apple Fair opens
next Wednesday morning in tempor-
ary building which is being rapidly
erected on the lot belonging to the
fair association opposite the Hotel
Oregon and it bids fair to be the best
show ever held in Hood River although
this community is making more eX-
hibits in various parts of the country
than have ever before been attempted
by any apple district in the North
west
The many fine prizes will arrive
here this week and will be placed on
exhibition in the jewelry stores. The
building is going up rapidly and by the
first Of the week it will be ready to
receive the exhibits which will be put
in place Monday and Tuesday.
DR.. II. e. Van Deman, leading
American pomologist, who is this week
in Spokane as the chief judge at the
National Apple Show there, will pro-
badly be here next week to act as
Judge for the local display. Judge
Van Deman came to the Hood River
show last year and although there is IA
great call for his time at all the big
expositions, he is glad to come to
Hood River. He met Chris Greisen at
Vancouver and said he would be glad
to come here during the fair, which
was in an open week between the
Spokane and Portland Apple Shows.
Hood River representatives in Spokane
this week were to make arrangements
to bring the famous expert here for the
fair.
