Provincial Army Joins In
Uprising = Foreigners
Not Yet In Danger.

PEKING, Oct. 12-Almost the entire
province Of Nu-Peh is in the hands Of
the rebels who have issued a proclama-
ton of their intention to overthrow the
Manchu dynasty. Following the cap
ture Of the capital. WI Chang, yester-
day, the rebel forces marched on the
important city of Sang Yang, which
was captured. as well as several towns
Of less importance.
An attack on Hankow IL said to be
imminent. A general who fed here
from WI Chang, says almost the en-
tire provincial army has Joined the
rebels. and that the uprising is the
most serious since the TAPPING rebel
lion.
The rebel leaders have refused to al
low the foreign missionaries to leave
WI Chang, but have given assurance
that their lives and property will be
respected. Gunboats are being rushed
here by Germany, England, and japan,
but the rebellion has thus far been
unique in that there has been no DEM
onstration against foreigners.

Announcement las been made by
Josef StraRsky, the new leader OF the
New York Philharmonic Society, that
the first Washington appearance of thai
organization under his leadership will
Be on the afternoon of November Is, in
the New National TIL eater. Other
concerts will be given January 16 and
March 8 at 4:S0 O'Clock.
The pronounced success of last sea.
sens concerts by this society lends 10
this seasons series an interest and i'm
portance that is unmistAkabIe. The
famous orchestrs under its new leader
now ranks among the highest musical
organizations of the world. Special
soloists have been engaged for the pres
ent season, and artisticaIly and socially
the concerts are certain to be classed
among the most important events of the
winter.
The Philharmonic Society is Americas
Oldest orchestra, being now in its
SEVENTEEN year. In the course of its
long career the greatest conductors of
succeeding generations have been num-
bered among it's leaders, and it takes
rank among the most important SYM
picnic bodies of the world
In Josef Stransky has been found
most worthy successor to the late Gus
tave Mailer. Though only forty years
cid, the brilliant Bohemian conductor
already has made a record that has
brought him widespread recognition. In
training and achievement he has shown
himself a musician of finest caliher,
while in temperament and personality he
is particularly equipped to fill the espe-
cial needs of the Philharmonic Society
and TO uphold its lofty standards Sub

In conjunction with the concerts Of

music by the Flonzaley quartet. the
personnel Of which includes Adolf Betti,

The appearance Of this quartet has
become a distinctive feature Of each
musical season: and the concerts to be

has been unique In modern musical his

The Flonzaleys. founded by z. ]. Cop
pet. Of New York, now take rank
among the first stringed quartets Of the
day. Their entire time is devoted to
the cultivation Of chamber music, the
members having pledged themselves
neither to teach, play in orchestras, or
accept individual engagements. As a
result of the perfect sympathy that has
come from constant association and I'M
ring practice and the consistent pur-
suit OF single ideal, the playing of
these four brilliant musicians ap-
proaches as near perfection as is hu-
manly possible.
The unanimous verdict of the New

the unprecedented success of four CON

out the European verdict that the Flon-

Mr.. And Mrs. G. N. Odell
Triumph Over Mud,
And Are Married.

What chance has the course of true
love to run smooth when an unmacad.
amized road, filled with boulders and
bitches causes the 6O-horsepower au-
tomobile in which love is riding to
break down three times in an hour?
That is the question Mr.. and Mrs.
Caryll Neil Odell, the youthful couple
who eloped to Annapolis yesterday at
ternoon and were married, are today
asking themselves while spending their
honeymoon in Philadelphia
Mrs. Odell, who was Miss Bessie Hall,
the pretty sixteen-year-old daughter of
Mr.. and Mrs. Edward Hall, Of 3112
Thirteenth street northwest, and who
received a practical demonstration OF
the truth Of the old adage about there
being many a slip between courtship
and marriage when she fell into a pool
of water on the road to the Maryland
capital yesterday, didn't seem TO mind
II one bit.
When the automobile. which drew I'D

through pool of water in which the
machines had stalled. missed her foot

The bridegroom Jared none the better.
Young Odell, who is a newspaper re-
porter, employed by a Richmond after
noon daily, and whose training was re-
celVed on Washington newspapers, was
not deferred from his purpose Of making
the young girl his wife, and the quartet
started to walk the remaining part of
the journey. when the chauffeur found
out what was the matter with the auto
mobile, and got 1t running again.
AFTER the ceremony, the party went
to Carvel Hall. where dinner was
served. Mr.. Dodge, Miss Odell. and Mr.
Grinder returned to Washington, leav-
ing the runaways in Annapolis. This
morning the parents were notified that
the first train for Philadelphia had been

they would remain there a few days.

they will reside.
Mr.. and Mrs. Milton L. Odell. OF 35O6

that they objected to the mar

of the youngsters. The parents Of both,
however, are ready to forgive the rum

Threaten Outbreak
In Turkey If Peace
Negotiations Begin

CONsTANTINOPLE, Oct 1.-THE
report that peace was about to be
proclaimed between Turkey and Italy
has brought fresh outbursts against the
government from the leaders Of the
Young Turks, the war party. The
army corps modified at Salonika is
threatening to march on CONSTANT
nople, If peace negotiations begin.
Since the outbreak of hostilities the
committee of union and progress, the
Young Turks organization, has been
working day and night to fan the war
fever among the people. They have
not been very successful in Constan-
tinople, where the pOpulace has re-
manned Indifferent, but their efforts
have met with considerable success in
the interior, and their influence is su-
preme in the army, which has clamored
continuously to be led against the Ital-
ians
1t is feared that the declaration of an
armistice may be the signal for popu-
lar outbreaks against the Italian resi-
dents in Turkey, in which other Eu-
ropean may be involved.

PAYS TO SHAMPOO
YOUR OWN HAIR

In a very interesting article in the
Los Angeles News, Mae Martyr, noted
authority on beauty topics, says: "Since
alkali, as found in soaps and most
shampoo preparations, has been found
responsible for most hair and scalp
troubles, too great care cannot be taken
in the matter of shampooing.
ITO those desiring a beautiful head
of hair and a perfectly healthy scalp,
I recommend the use of plain canthrox
for shampooing. A teaspoonful dis
solved in a cup of hot water makes
the most beneficial, satisfactory, and
least expensive shampoo known to
science.
This shampoo is a perfect scalp
cleanser. and leaves the hair in the
brightest, fluffiest condition possible.
1t never streaks the hair and has the
hearty Endorsement of all who have
tried IT."
