SENIOR RECITAL
Misses Dudley Render Delightful
 Programme at Judson

Marion, March 1.-(Speeial) "A de- lightful piano recital given this even ing by Miss Ellen Dudley of Orrvillo and Miss Patti Mae Dudley of Shorter was another notable feature of the sea sons musical attractions at Judson col lege.
 The programme included compositions Of Beethoven, Chopin Liszt, also some of the modern classics, such as Tschai- kowsky. zkowski. Greig. MacDow- ell and others. Their interpretation of the beautiful selections revealed many pleasing musical qualities of the plan ists.
 Miss Ellen Dudley's playing is dis tinguished for the clean technique. 2 delicate touch and a musical feeling. Throughout her several numbers, espe- cially in the Iiszt Gondoiera and Jo- seffy's Cradle Song were shown q high poetic and musically conception. Two mnsically interesting pieces, "The Hunt" by Tschaik owsky, and the "En- chanted Fountain," by Schytte. were also very beautifully interpreted.
 Miss Pattie Mae Dudleys piano se lections. representing a contrasted va - r1ety of styles. were interpreted with musical taste. which was notable in her sweet expressive playing of Woodman "Romancc,'' and her conception of Puck" Ca piano novelty by Philipp) was so realistic that one had visions of that goblin sprite as he gamboled "up and down." Her yivacious tempera ment finds it's best expression in the more brilliant style, which was manifest in her excellent interpretation of Mosz- kowskl's brilliant Air de Ballet
 The programme was brought to a close with the Mendelssohn G Minor Concerto. beautifully rendered by Miss Ellen Dudley and MT. Powers. The Andante being given with great deli caey of expression and the Allegro fol- lowing with technical facility and tonal tbrilliancy.

.STIMSON WANTS
 BETTER MILITIA
Urges House Committee to Adopt Legislation to Increase Efficiency
 of State Organizations

Washington, March 1.-Secretary Stim- son today urged the house committee on military affairs to recommend legislation to increase the cffiency of the national guard. Mir Stimson advised the enact ment of any law which would add to the interest in the national guard. He de- clared that in the event of war the coun- try would have to rely on the militia in the long run and that 1t would be short sighted policy to do nothing to encourage the organization of body of reserve troops. His criticism of the present militia was that it lacked discipline, or ganiza tion: that the men had insufficient knowledge of tactics and that state or ganzations were not up to the standard which should be sought by the federal government.
 The ss.Oc9,OO0 which is the esti- mated cost of militia under the terms of the Hay bill could be much more profitably expended in the maintenance of five cavalry regiments and reserve of aeoj men in the regular army in the opin- ion of the secretary.

 WILEY CRITICISED

 in the House today during discussion of
 the agricultural appropriation bill. The
 sum of s2,J0o,OO0, however. was permitted
 to stand for the continuance of the bu-
 reau and it's assistants during 1913. Representative Lever of South Carolina led the assault on'tlie Remsen board. He questioned the legality of that board and
 condemned it's personnel as being 'too highly scientific"
 Representative Brooks of Wisconsin, republican. and Republican Leader Mann defended the board and Dr. Wiley.

The order is on appeal to the Remsen board.
 The bill was not completed when ad- jour7ment was taken. Those on the com
 mittee hope to pass it tomorrow.
