Be Honest.

Honesty is also one of the funda-
mental principles it never pays to
break. If to be a good fellow means
you are to sneak, or steal, or lie, then
you dig a pit into which one donkey
certainly will fall, and his name will
be spelled just like yours.

MIR. AND MRS. DANIEL
 TO VISIT IN NEW YORK

It will be learned with regret among a large circle of friends that MT. and Mrs Charles z. Daniel, who have for the past seven years made their home in this city are to take up their residence again in New York. Mrs. Daniel has been in New York city for the past six or eight weeks, having been called there by the serious illness of her aged father. She was joined yesterday by MT. Daniel who re- turned from New York three weeks ago and has been making his plans to re- move permanently to the metropolis. Both MT. and Mrs. Daniel are clever, charming people. She is always admired not only for her beauty, and her smart gowning, but for charm of manner that is dis tinctly her own. A quaint touch of humor is an element in her vivacious, sparkling conversation, and as essentially charac- teristic as her blue eyes and black hair are typically Irish. MT. Daniels depart ure from Birmingham was occasioned by a decided business advantage, and his friends wish him the success in his new field which they know he Is capable to achieve.

SUGGESTION IS
 ENOUGH FOR JOSE


 Ceiba, Honduras, April 27.-Jose Dolores Potocarrero of New Orleans, who arrived here Tuesday, was forced to return to New Orleans by the first steamer to pre- vent threatened assassination. Portocar- rero is alleged to have turned traiter in 1907 to Gen. Manuel Bonila, under whose administration he served as governor of the department of Cortez and upon his arrival here General ,Bonilla Suggested" to Portocarerro that he return to New Orleans on the steamer Bertha to pre- vent assassination. Portocarrero accepted the advice and departed. General Bonil- las friends allege that Portocarerro dur ing the war with Nicaragua in 1907, gave information to Zelaya's chiefs regarding the Honduran army. He is also blamed for frustrating the Bonilla revolution in July, last year. While Francisco Ber- tran Is provisional president, General Bo- nilla is regarded hero as the real ruler and his power on the coast at least is supreme.

The driving of the Kings way through mass of narrow mean streets in the heart of the metropolis the widening of the Strand, and the opening of the new Mall are achievements on tremendously broad lines, which are not only making a new London, but revealing to much better ad- vantage the beauties of the old. Wash ington was deliberately planned with view to civic art. But no other city in America has followed that example. Any number of schemes have been drawn up, but they have remained schemes. The Burnl1am dream of beautiful Chicago Wonderfully set forth on paper) makes one hungry to skip 20 years and see the realization. Unfortunately, it is nothing more than a dram. The Michigan Ave- nue park in front of the Auditorium and the Chicago club looks only little more advanced than 1t did a dozen years ago. Nevertheless, we feel the impulse below the surface, just as we recognize the air of spring while the ground Is still brown and barren. Not long ago we heard that some influential women in Knoxville had taken over the local newspaper for a whole edition to push the idea of the city beautiful. And perhaps what Knoxville thinks today New York will think to- morrow ssrs

Cantata Is Rendered By Music Club and Is Pronounced

Taladega, April 27.-(Specfal. 1.-Two dwellings were destroyed by fire Wednes- cay afternoon in the Mountain Home ad oition.

 Personal Mention

The city beautiful idea so excellently portrayed in the recent edition of the Knoxville Sentinel, reference to which was made yesterday in this column, is a favorte ideal in many cities, whether in operation or not The following note taken from a New York weekly, shows that the germ at least of great move ment has been implanted:
 Desire for beautiful homes is creat- ing a desire for beautiful cities. Not alone in America, but all over the world
 cities are setting about self-conscious- ly to make themselves beautiful. Sev- eral generations have passed since Paris was Haussmanized. It is only a few years ago that London began to take herself seriously with wonderful results

v,c,or Records For May

Tetrazzinis concert tour of the United States was a veritable series of ovatiofs. Beginning at San Francisco, where she sang on Christmas Eve to an audience of more than 100000 delighted hearers as- sembled on a public screet, and ending with the recent final concert at the great New York Hippodrome her tour was marked by triumph after triumph.
 The other sensational event was the tour of the Imperial Russian Balaiaika Court Orchestra. The balalaika, original ly a primitive peasants instrument with a tone similar to that of mandolin, is at present the most famous instru- ment iM Russia, and this popularity is due to the conductor of this orchestra, Vassili Vassilievitch Andreef. He has developed and improved the balalaika in- to a novel orchestra of great range, With instruments varying in size from that of a mandolin to small-sized double bass.
 The technical skill and precision of the 25 gifted players of this organization gre simply astonishing, while the erect of the whole orchestra is soft and rich music something like produced by our mandolin, only wonderfully more velvety, that fades away to singing whisper or flows into liquid tone like the sound of zithers in crystal halls"
 Doesn't that make you long to hear this wonderful music? And the best part of it is you can hear it-and Tetravvini's matchess voice, too. Their concert tours are over, but they still play and sing, and will keep on playing and singing to future generations, for their art is pre- served for all time on Victor Records. Four new Tetrazinni records, made right efter the completion of her tour and four selections by the famous Balalaika Or chestra have just been issued with the May list of New Victor Records.
 Among the other contributors this month are Sousas band. Pryors band, Lucy Isabelle Marsh, Elizabeth Brice, Reinald Werrenrath, the peerless quartet. Geraldine Farrar. Louise Homer, John Mccormack, Antonio Scotti and Otto Goritz.
