PEARY ASKED TO
 SUBMIT PROOFS

Washington, January 6.-The official re- port of Capt. Robert E. Peary's recent walking tests as prescribed by the navy department, just made public, is in the opinion of his friends in the navy the strongest possible refutation of the argu- ments advanced by critics who have questioned the time the explorer made over the ice on the return from the north pole.
 On the first day Captain Peary walked 20 miles in six hours and 10 minutes. On the second day, 25 miles in seven hours and 26 minutes, and on the third day, five miles in one hour and 2S minutes.
 The meeting of the subcommittee was lively one. MT Bates moved to re- port favorably to the House to his bill to give the explorer the emoluments of a rear admiral dating back to the time he claims to have discovered the pole. MT. Macon of Arkansas, who has been prim- ing himself for his attack on the Peary legislation, immediately objected He said that if Peary were to be recognized, then pr. Fred A. Cooks claims to the attain nent of the pole should also be recog- nized, for the one had corroborated the other and the stories told by the two were alike in important particulars es- pecially around the pole Mir Macon de- nounced what he regarded as the fail ure of Commander Peary to produce any proof of his discovery.
 Various bills were discussed and the result was an invitation for Peary to appear and bring his proofs and a notice to the Secretary of the Navy of the in- vitation to Peary.

SOLDIERS HELP
 JAIL BREAKERS

Atlanta, January 6.-Three soldiers stationed at Fort McPherson. who vis- tied the Fulton county jail last Sun day, left the saws with which John Withrow, the convicted wife murderer and four companions sawed their way to liberty Monday night according to statement made by Withrow today The saws, he said, were given to liar ry Langdon, one of the jail breakers who was recaptured.
 According to the prisoner, Langdon, under the alias of Glenn Allen, de- serted from the army and q number of men who served in his old company are now stationed at Fort McPherson.
 They learned of Langdon's presence in the jail and secured permission to inspect the jail.
 It develops that the lock on the bar to the inner cells was left ulfast ened by accident and the prisoners used the saws only on the outer bars.
 A. R. Knox, the New Orleans Isan Known as the "druG store bandit" one oS the recaptured prisoners, today mutined and attacked three jailers with a piece of lead pipe which he had wrenched loose from the plumbing in his cell. He was badly beaten be- fore being finally subdued and pla ced in the condemned cell for safety. The break in the pipe flooded the entire east wing of the jail.
 Charles Sutton, the last of the quintet of jail birds to be caught, was cap tured today near Stockbridgo, 30 miles south of Atlanta, and returned to the Fulton countl jail tonight.

INDIAN DANCES
 ARE REPRODUCED

Washington, January 6.-Three graph ophone records of rare value have been received by First Assistant Commissioner Abbott of the bureau of Indian affairs.
 These records contain genuine reproduc- tons of the war dance songs of the Ban mock Indians of Idaho and were made by Ralph w. Dixie, an Indian ranchman of the Fort Hall reservation in that state.
 Dixie and Commissioner Abbott went to one of the dances and made the records unbeknown to participants. Indians of a rule are somewhat superstitious about such matters and 1t would have ,been al- most impossible to get them to carry on their dances for canning purposes.
 As the American bureau of ethnology Is now, engaged in collecting data on the customs, songs and dances of the Indian tribes throughout the country. Commis- sioner Abbott has loaned his records 10 that bureau for copying purposes.

 tains all of the voluptuousness of tonali-
 ty and beauty of melody the original con-
 tafned and 1t is composition Mrs. Rivers should be proud of.
 Your programme this afternoon is
 chosen with great care and taste,' sug-
 gested.
 Tt is strictly recital programme"
 said MT. Gunster, except that I have in
 serted an aria from Aida, which did pur-
 posely. The southern people, of course, have few opportunities of hearing grand opera, and I thought that this selection,
 Celeste Aida" would be enjoyable on a
 programme of modern recital music"
 Was 1t always your intention to make
 music your profession?" I asked. "I have loved music all my life, and have sung since I was a youngster," said Mr. Gunster with delight "As is often the case ones calling in life is chosen for him rather than by him, and it was ar ranged in my youth that I should follow banking as profession. I sang all during these years that I was actively engaged
 in the banking business, but my friends
 were always interested in my voice. Fin ally in Los Angeles gave up banking and
 took up the study of music and have fol-
 lowed 1t ever since"
 "One of the first acquaintances among
 musicians whom remember with great deal of pleasure" continued MT. Gunster
 reminiscently, 's Miss Ellen Beach Yaw.
 She was very kind to me and gave me
 much encouragement. Then went
 abroad and studied in Naples with Carlo Sebastiani There 1 qualified for grand opera. studying the roles of Rudofo in
 La Boheme." Rharames in Aida" Canio in "Pagliacci," and Cavaradossi in La Tosca" Realizing the analogy between the evolution of opera and Lieder recital I went to Munich and there coached in German repertoire. While there I had the pleasure of knowing Felix Mottl, the di- rector of the Royal Conservatory, and l specialized in songs of Richard Strauss and Hugo Wolff, who consider the great est Lieder writer since Schubert. l knew Max Roger in Munich also-a perfect giant muscally and physically. The music of Strauss is simple in compari- son to Reger's, although Strauss in his salome and Elektra music is regarded as l a musical pirate.
 1T have been doing concert and oratorio work for several years now" said MT Gunster in conclusion, .'and to my mind there is no more beautiful field for talent
 and ambition than in these especial lines. T

 First of all, Mrs Davis is a musician, ' said MT. Gunster. That is necessary be- fore one can be good accompanist. Then she is remarkably sympathetic in her ac- compartments. I couldn't, be better pleased, and that is saying a good deal because I have worked with some ot Americas best accompanists. There Is MT. Charles Gilbert Spross, for instance with whom I have often sung. He is not only a wonderful accompanist, but one ot Americas leading composers. He has nc superior either as writer of melody or an accompanist."
