AIDA HEMMI SAYS
OPERA IN ENGLISH
IS PROVING WORTH
Aborn Company Singer De.
clares Idea Is Practicable
and Popular.

Grand opera in English. for years a
mooted question, and one which Will
never be settled in the minds of some
music devOtees, has proven not only
practicable but exceedingly popular. 1t
has taken a long time for impressarios
and noted opera singers TO realize TIM
truth of this, but even those who once
We're most strongly opposed today must
admit IL.
This, in substance, is the opinion OF
Aida Hemmi, one Of the prima donnas
of the Aborn English Grand Opera
Company, who, with Cecilia Rhoda, is
alternating in the title role of Aida
this week at the National. Miss
Hemmi Is not so well known in the East
as she is in the Middle West and on the
Pacific coast. She and her husband
are iustifiably proud of the reason
for this, which is that the Middle West
and Pacific Coast audiences like her
personally as a singer so we'll that they
have kept her very much to themselves.
Miss Hemmi has been with the Inter-
national Grand Opera Company, the Ma
tional Opera Company, and a company
of her own. She was educated in Leip-
sic, Germany, and has been singing be-
fore the public some twelve years of
her thirty-two. Ii was in The Knick-
erDocker Girls" and The Jersey Eilly''
that she first came before Eastern audi
ences.

PROBE OF THE CASE OF
POLICEMAN WATTS.

Whether or not the Senate's third
degree" committee has authority tC
investigate affairs of the Washington
Police Department, a thorough in
quiry into the case of Policeman
Watts by some unbiased official body
is demanded by the facts thus faI
brought to the surface.
Watts has been disconnected from
his job after a hearing before the
police trial board. Naturally, he
feels somewhat dissatisfied with the
boards findings. His dissatisfaction
however, is more deep-seated than is
usually the case with dismissed po-
liceman. He believes he has been made
the victim of injustice, so he has hired
a lawyer to protest for him, and the
lawyer has appealed to the Senate's
third degree committee for relief.
According to the information at
hand to date, Watts was dismissed
because one button was missing from
the sleeve of his coat, and because he
wore a shoe with slit in it just over
the place on his toe where he carries
large bunion, for which he was un-
der treatment at the hands of the po-
lice surgeons. 1t cannot fail to strike
any citizen of Washington as rather
ar-fetched for a policeman to be dis
missed from the service for offenses
no more serious than these.
Right here, however, is where the
case gets very interesting to the pub
lie. Watts lawyer says that Watts,
in reality, was dismissed because, in
certain trial in court, his testimony
was favorable to the defense and not
to the prosecution, which the lawyer
charges is very irregular, policemen
being expected to do all in their power
to bring about conviction of persons
arrested and accused of crime.
1t is this phase of the Watts case
in which the public is concerned. If
Washington policemen are being forced
to testify as the prosecution wants
them to testify, on penalty of losing
their jobs, the Washington public
should know it.
1t does not seem, however, that a
Congressional investigation should he
nacasSarv in tho Watts casn Tho
District Commissioners are just as
anxious that the Police Department be
properly conducted as any committee
of Congress possibly could be. Why
call upon Senators to spend time which
they could well devote to other Dis
trict questions when the facilities for
thorough investigation already exist
in the District government!

ROOSEVELT'S NEW LESSON IN
ELEMENTAL JUSTICE.

Mr.. Roosevelt has again shown him
self to the American people as a man
of extraordinary courage. Elsewhere
is printed his editorial in the Outlook
upon the arrest of certain men charged
with a series of dynamite outrages.
The title which he gives his article
rings like a fire bell.
Murder is murder he says, and
as to the attitude of certain labor
leaders who have been active in de-
nouncing the arrest of the McNsmaras,
he declares that mo worse service can
be rendered by labor union leaders to
the cause of unionism than that which
they render when they seek to iden-
tify the cause of unionism with the
cause of any man guilty of a murder
GUS attack of this nature. l have no
idea whether the men arrested on Mr..
Burns statements are or are not
guilty; the labor leaders in question
have no idea whether or not they are.
They are entitled to an absolutely
fair trial"
1t is an asset to the nation that it
holds man who can thus speak aloud
the perilous word with the perfect
assurance that his motive shall be un-
challenged.
We have all of us, to more or less
extent, come to think about organized
labor as one might walk among eggs.
1t is "ticklish" subject. Between
those who denounce the unions and
those who look upon their label as a
sacred token, the great mass of the
people have been awed into an mbe-
coming silence.
1t is just this diffidence in the face
of a fight from which the people gen.
orally cannot hope forever to stand
apart, that has made the conflict so
self-assertive and so dangerous. When
unprecedented outrages have been
committed, and labor union leaders
like Gompers, like Morrison, and like
Mitchell, throw the accumulated force
of their prejudices into the jury box
before trial, even before arraignment,
it is to be asked in all seriousness
whether in their philosophy the public
safety ranks superior to class advant-
age. ......
While the country has dawdled and
minced its words, Mr.. Roosevelt has
expressed himself on the subject pub
licly, and with characteristic force. He
has brought to his utterance the
weight of long record of sometimes

WORCESTER SETTLES BIRTH.
PLACE ST. PATRICK.

The birthplace of st. Patrick has
been as fiercely debated as the identity
of Billy Patterson's assailant or that
of the Man in the Iron Mask. France
has presented strong claims to the
honor: England swears that he was
born in a rose garden just south OF
the Tweed; Sandy thinks there is ma
doot of his Caledonian nativity, while
few zealots have persistently con-
tended that he was born in Ireland.
The suggestion has been made from
time to time that the veXed question
be submitted to a court of arbitration
in the interest of peace, but the ma
tionality of all the claimants made it
certain that it would result in some
thing like riot.
With the temerity of one who rushes
in where the cherubim look cautiously
to their footing, Worcester, Mass, has
assumed the dangerous responsibility
of making a decision. The school COM
mittee of that hardy town has been
discussing the adoption of textbook
which teaches that the patron saint of
Erin was born in Scotland. No allu-
sion is made to the conflicting claims
of other countries. 1t is simply set
down dogmatically that he first saw
the light in the land of the heather.
The Bay State hopeful was to be kept
in ignorance that it was ever an open
question.
The net result is just about. what
might be expected. Worcester is be-
ing denounced with rich Irish brogue
which would have to be translated Oh
Beacon Hill and cooled in brine pipes
before it could be printed anywhere
Who made Worcester the arbiter of
the riddles of historyf What kind of
a return is this for the loyal Irishmen
who have "voted right" and paid their
taxes since the year of the Big Wind :?
Frowning countenances are mirrored
in the waters of the Blackstone; there
are menacing groups on the Old Com
mon. A wave of Indignation is spread
ing from the State to the country. The
triumphal strains of the pibroch are
drowned in curses loud and deep. be-
fore arbitrary Worcester hears the last
of this she will be ready to make an
affidavit that the good saint was not
born at all, but came into the world
after the nebulous manner of Little
Topsy, and spent an equal quota of
his life in every land that claims nlm.
