TOO MUCH MONEY
HERE FOR SINGER
at Is Terrifying, and What
Makes Americans So Seri-
ouS," Says Mexican.

NEW YORK, July 26.-Senora Ma ia
de la Fraga and Senorita Montero del
Collado, two little singers from the
Grand Optra Company in Mexico, who
have just arrived in New York. are de-
laying their departure for Europe in or
der 20 give a daily concert this week for
Carlos Madero, the father Of President
Aiadero, who is staying at Long Beach.
The two singers do not speak a word
of English, but they have plenty to say
in French and Spanish, and they are
voluble on the subject of America and
its people, but nothing can induce them
to speak seriously of the Mexican revo-
luton.
we do not think about the rebels, .
protested Senorita del Callado "Whdt
does war matter as long as it does not
prevent us from singing Ia Mexico
City we sang all winter long. A Mexi-
can can fight all day and go to the opera
at night, and his dream will be of the
music and not of the cannon. Music
is everything to us.
1T is not so with you Americans.
You make a business of hea ting music :;
you teach it to your children from a
sense of duty. You even study singing
for year, perhaps, before YOU utter a
note. That would be impossible in
Mexico.
We sing because we can not help it.
just as the birds do. We sing if we are
happy. but we also sing when we are
sad"
When asked what impressed them
most in New York the senoritas eyes
grew large
The money" she replied. 1--WE have
never seen anything like it. So much
wealth everywhere. 1t is terrifying. I
do not like it, 1t is that that makes
Your people so serious"

issue with Rev. Huffner She says:
"Glaneing over a Denver paper, l
notice an item concerning your sermon
on Love, Courtship and Marriage. one
part of which | especially notice, saying
that old bachelors and bachelor maids
should be isolated on an island so they
could not hinder the progress of civil

this statement. but | feel that it is
great injustice to the bachelor maids of
our country There are. | admit. many
man-haters in the world, but a great

cause they have been unable TO find a
suitable companion.
Il must admit that ! am speaking
from the standpoint OF the bachelor
maid. l feel that such persons as my
self are not hindering the progress of
civilization but advancing ii. If l had
found suitable help-mate, l might
have spent my money in different

have done as much good as it has
