NORDjcA IN CONCERT.

What will undoubtedly be the most
brilliant event OF the present musical
season Is the appearance Of Nine. Lii
liam Nordica in concert in Indianapo-
lis. on January Sth. With her beauti.
full personality and wonderful vocal
and dramatic equipment. Nordica is
one Of the most famous artists before
the public. Her superb voice is under
such perfect control that it can pro-
duce the required tone qualities to
express every possible sentiment.
Melba. Nordica. Games. Sembrich and
Tetrazzini are admittedly the greatest
sopranos Of the day. but on the con-
cert platform Nordica is unrivalled,
one reason being that she is a wonder
full program builder and her concert
programs are always of great beauty
and variety and we'll chosen to display
the singers consummate art: anoth
er reason is her magnetic personality
and dramatic temperament. Without
costume or stage setting, so great is
her art. that she brings the whole
scene wildly before her auditors and
the bare concert platform is for the
moment transformed to the scene of
her song. No program which this
famous singer could give would be
complete without the "Erlking." of
which she gives matchless rendi-
tlon and 1t Is promised that this num-
Der will be included in her program
here. There will also be number of
English selections as Nordica is an
enthusiastic advocate OF song in the
vernacular and was the first to at
tempt to sing Wagner in English.
The seat sale for Madame Nordica's
Indianapolis concert is being conduct
ed by subscription. the prices ranging,
from $1.OO to $3.50. Orders addressed
to the Manager Of the Shubert Murat
theater will be promptly cared for.

LAST MINUTE gifts.

The scurrying days are on Us, when
things to be done pile up in an appal-
ing way Our gift list is in a democrat
ICED condition. We haven't found many
of the things We wanted, or else they
were beyond our purse. We have add
ed some names that weren't on it at
the start And although some names
are crossed off. their gifts having been
satisfactorily found, there are more
than We like to see at this late date,
whose gift has yet to be discovered
And We feel that We have looked so
thoroughly, that there is nothing new
to find.
How about a cut glass glove-box,
or other article of this sort for the bu-
reau? 1t is handsome. 1t is useful. Best
of all, it is easily kept immaculate,
which cannot be said OF all the acces-
series provided for the bureau and
dressing table. Many are exquisite,
but if used every day, they soon be-
come dusty and soiled, and their clean
ing is no easy task. ~~~~~~
The hatpin-holder that stands up
is very easily overturned when filled
with long and heavy hatpins. Very
dainty is one style in the shape of a
slipper with the holes so arranged that
the pins when in it lie horizontal A
hatpin-holder is almost necessity
nowadays, and one of this kind will no
doubt be greatly appreciated.
And while on the subject of hat
pins, take a look at those in your
friends winter nat. See if those she
is using are in harmony with her hat,
or are last seasons pins. Many a girl
is sticking hatpins that went with her
blue hat under the flowers or velvet

DIRECT ELECTION BILL
IS PASSED BY HOUSE
Democrats Rush Through Reso.
luton Proposing Constitu.
tj0naI Amendment.

Washington-The House of Repre-
sentatives, by a vote of 296 to io,
passed the Rucker resolution propos.
ing constitutional amendment Tor
the direct election of United States
senators.
This is the first of the Democratic
program measures passed by the
House. It went through without mod
ification and with speed that
brought protests from the Republi-
cans.
The resolution, as the House ap-
proved It, Is in the form in which the
Borah resolution was reported out OF
the Senate judiciary committee in the
closing days Of the last Congress.
Publicity Bill Passed.
The Democratic party met its first
serious trouble in the House of Repre-.
sentatives. At the close of session
marked by insurgency in the Demo
cratic ranks. by reason of which the
Republicans narrowly missed scoring
triumph, the House passed the
Rucker bill for publicity of campaign
contributions before elections.
The fight arose over the extent to
which publicity should be applied.
But for the vigorous and continued
use of the Democratic whip, an i'm
portant Republican amendment ex-
tending publicity to the individual re-
ceipts and expense of candidates for
Congress would have been retained
in the bill when it finally passed.
The Rucker bill, as finally passed,
makes more stringent the campaign
publicity law passed in 1910 That
law requires publicity of funds by the
campaign committee ten days before
election and the filing of supplement.
tai statements every three days there
after until election day
Reciprocity Will Pass House.
1t is the common expectation that
the Canadian reciprocity bill, embody.
ing President Taft's tariff compact
with Canada. and differing in no es-
sential details from the Mccall bill,
passed by the House last session,
will be passed, despite the protests
Of the high protectionists, with the
vDtes of the united Democracy, and
large contingent of Republicans.
Session Will BE Prolonged
There is every indication that the
present session of Congress will be
long one. and old-time leaders around
the capitol are placing the day of
adjournment anywhere from Septem-
Der / to December 4.
The declaration of President Taft
that he will not exercise his constitu-
tional power and adjourn Congress
after the passage of the Canadian re-
ciprocity bill, put an end to the hopes
of those senators and representatives
who had looked forward to adjourn
ment in the early summer.

stocking Thieves Arrested.

Another batch of wholesale arrests was
made In raid upon the stocking thieves
at VIM. F. Taubel's hosiery mill. at River
side, last week, when officer Borton
brought before Justice Ziegler six persons
on whom he caught the goods" In the
hearing that followed many exciting
scenes were enacted by the prisoners, who
made open charges against each other.
The local court was not compelled to
pound out any evidence. Revelations of
stolen goods that were brought out were
amazing and astounded the court and
the accusers. In the rapid-fire accuse
tions made against one another, John
Pierog and Alex. Zudsax were the chief
witnesses for the State, and the most an
gered of the prisoners Pierog accused
Zudsax of having burned up 100 pairs of
hosiery following the arrests of others a
month ago, alsoEto eYade detection. Zud-
sax had buried in suit case four dozen
cotton stockings and one dozen of the silk.
Zudsax in turn accused Pierog of having
assisted Polander now residing in Europe
In packing $50 pairs In trunk that were
shipped to Russia. Both accused each
other with having burned and buried
dozens of stockings in the past month.
Officers later searched the Zudsax home
on the strength of their own testimony
and found the suit case bulged with host
cry buried In his cellar. Justice Ziegler
then released the group on bail to appear
before court. Those arrested were John
Pierog, Alex. Zudsax, Michael Matosiew-
sky, Steven Katakowsky, Mary Judsack
and Francis Pierog. OF the above mum
bers Michael Matosiewsky was married
last Sunday and the following day was
arrested on charge of larceny.
