Sebastian Burnett, the young tenor
who comes to America from Euro
pean triumphs, delighted an audience
last Saturday night at Grand opera
house, when he sang his programmed
numbers and encores, and won instant
recognition as an artist of supreme
attainments. To hear Burnett sing is
to hear the best in music. The tender
quality of his high notes seems to
float" and to retain to a wonderful
degree a richness Of rare merit.
His baritone notes are wonderfully
full and of mellow timbre. Although
singing in concert, his dramatic abil-
ity was easily recognized.
A more responsive audience has
seldom greeted an artist in this city,

Emmaline Klein the Dutch maid. The
scenes, in two acts, were laid in the
Oakley home. The dialect conversa-
tlons Of the cook and maid were ex-
tremely comical and perfectly given.
The playette brought hearty applause.
Miss Erixon's number on the pro-
gram was difficult. In this she was
compelled to sustain the most boist-
erous mirth, one Of the hardest parts
Of elocution, and she accomplished
it successfully.
Miss Klein was excellent in her
monologue. Miss Blanche Liston and
Miss Rhea Wilson gave fine work in
their widely different numbers. Miss
Ethel Thomas is always good in
whatever recitation she gives. Miss
Joanna Driscoll, Miss Edythe Rideout
and Miss Dora Patterson were warm
ly applauded after their readings.
Miss MCGEE and Miss Miller gave
their solos beautifully, and Miss Alice
Baker, very young girl, played her
piano number we'll.
A number Of pupils are working
for graduation, and this seasons
training has accomplished much
toward their ambition.
The class is large and at each recital
new names appear on the program.
The Womans Catholic Order of
Foresters will present st. Patrick's
program next Monday night in st.
Josephs hall. There will be Irish
songs and Irish readings and many
other attractions appropriate for the
day.

The Decline of Ragtime.
e Cincinnati Times-Star.

From the Cincinnati Times-star.
Chicago newspapers are surprised at
the decline of ragtime with the bands
playing In the Windy city parks this
summer. A better class OF music has
been given, and the public has shown
It's appreciation by increased attend
ance. The, programs have not been
entirely classical, but the elamor of
syncopation has been absent.
The truth is that the public taste
is not as degraded as theatrical man
ayers and others who cater to the gem
eral public would have US believe.
There is a desire for the better things
which Is far greater than the ability
of the producer to give them. In the
theater the immodest revue" and the
suggestive play find existence not SO
much by reason of the demand of the
public as because of the limitations.
mental and moral. of the purveyor
In light music ragtime has its place
just as fudge is regarded asa edible
without entering into the. Category of
substantial food. But the public has
the taste for the meat and bread OF
music which it will crafty according
to the supply.

forty-gallon oil barrel owned by the ten

weather the barrel overfiows. the cottage
walls reek with damp. and the yard is

Black Cock Shooting.
From the London Chronicle

From the London Chronicle.
There are those who deny to grouse
shooting the status Of perfect sport be-
cause the grouse cannot hit back. But it
is certainly much better sport than Rus
sian black cock shooting as described by
Mr.. Hume Beaman. 1t Is the habit of
the black cock to strut, and fight with his
rivals in an open arena, while the gray
hens sit round as queens of the tourna-
ment. The Russian sportsman" builds
a rough hut of boughs right on the spot
which does not seem to scare the BIRDS
Then he sleeps there and waits till the
tournament begins in the morning. when
he may blaze away at any of the COCKS
but the old one. whose death causes the
spot to be deserted Mr.. Beaman knew
of Russians who had shot five or SIX
cocks at one spot several mornings run
ming, but. having bagged one himself, he
never had the heart to kill another.

What Anne Rittenhouse Says
Special Correspondence Of The Star.

PARIS, September 5, 1913.
Why is it that Paris always fnvents
such remarkable blouses? America is the
home of the shirt waist, but 1t does not
invent or create new thoughts or new
movements in it's own field.
This may be said regarding all lingerie,
and probably the reason Is that the
French are experts in manipulating mus
lin. There is no shop in America where
one can get such handmade blouses for
So and 81 and SIS as one can at the Caller
les Lafayette. 1t Is not an unknown
thing for a high-priced American dress
maker to bring over f1ve-dollar blouse
from this department store and sell it
for S25 in America and copy it for SIS.

White Chiffon Blouses.

The creation of the day is the white
chiffon blouse, which was so fashionable
at Deauville- These sell from $50 at the
exclusive dressmakers to Sc at the Gal
cries Lafayette. Many Of the American
women are buying them for two pur-
poses, to wear under their coats and to
have skirts matched, colored belt added
and thereby complete a house costume.
The white chiffon frock which has a
broad shirt waist with long sleeves and
turnover collar and cuffs, is the smart
informal frock over here
These blouses are made in different
ways and with this essential. that they
are exceedingly full and droop for an inch
or two over the belt. The fashionable
sleeve is a large pear-shaped affair, which

Premet's Green Blouse.

One looks to Premet for wonderful col
orc and there is blouse at this house
that Is sold to the American buyers In
great numbers, and. bless you, they don't
buy it at Premet's always. 1t was copied
in two days after the opening and exhib-
tied at much less than the original price.
1t is a bright green. never jade nor
emerald, but something like young grass
In the spring with bit more color to 1t.
I know this sounds confusing. but de-
scription of colors is confusing. because
II is not possible to print them any more
than IL Is to copy some of them.
The material is chiffon and the lining
is of thin white lace. Across the back
there is a yoke which extends In a
straight line across the shoulders and
down the arm to form a loose elbow
sleeve that is draped up inside the arm
to a straight sleeve of white lace. This
Is the novelty of the season-the wide
back yoke that forms the sleeves. Worth
uses il for afternoon gowns in gold lace
and Premet uses ii in evening gowns of
ruby tulle, of silver lace, and one sees 1t
everywhere on the new blouSeS.
Below this yoke the chiffon is gathered
and falls in full folds to the waist. where

fronts are gathered to the upper edge Of

Little Pete Does Some Hare
Thinking.
BY THORNTON w. BURGESS.

When Boomer the NighthaWk Went
swimming off into the night to hunt up
Peter Rabbit and tell him that Little
Pete was lost on the great shadowy
Green Meadows he left very unhappy
little Rabbit sitting under the Lone Bush.
The friendly little Night Breeze had wan
dered off while Boomer the Nlshtha"k
had been talking, and now that Boomer
had gone Little Pete was once more all,
all alone. He shivered just a wee, Wee
bit, little cold shivers Of lonesome fright.

1T might be made by a big patch of

And so. with brave smile to make
himself think he wasn't afraid, Little
Pete left the lone little bush and once
more started out across the great
shadowy Green Meadows, which seemed
to him nothing less than the Great Wide
World.

they told him to do. Now that there was
no one to copy or to tell him what TO DO
