Al Hayman First to Recognize Sing
er's Great Powers, and Henry E.
Abbey Did the Rest

Several years ago Al Hayman, who
was in London met the late Henry
Il. Abbey, who was then our greatest
impresario. Mr.. Abbey was present
ing opera at the Metropolitan and was
searching Europe for new singers. AS
they sat over their coffee after a COM
Portable dinner in their club MI Hay
man described the trip he mad just
taken through provincial France,
And, by the way" said he, Il heard
a most remarkable young woman sing
Carmen at some little out-of-the-way
place"
Searching through his pockets he
finally came upon her name in his
note book and gave it to Abbey, who
seized his hat and called a cab
Where are you going?" said Hayman.
I'm going to Paris Immediately and
find where she is and go to hear her"
replied the impulsive Abbey. He
found her in a dingy little opera house
in small provincial town and heard
her sing Carmen. That night he had
her signature to a contract, and that
is how New York came to hear and
acclaim the great Ca1ve before ever
Paris had heard of her.

A NEW WHIP BOW AND = NEW
CROSS-BOW.

Homemade fireless firearms can be
productive of much fun in the back
yard or vacant lot, and with home
made targets to shoot at boy needs
but practice to attain an accuracy Of
aim that will make him expert in the
handling OF them.
The whip bow and the cross bow
are two harmless weapons that are
popular among boys, and in the illus
trations you will find new form of
each which l have devised for you.
The whip bow which the boy is
shown using in Fig l differs from the
ordinary kind In the whiplash. This
is made elastic by inserting several
rubber bands as shown in Fig. 2,
which makes it possible to sling the
arrow at greater distance than can
be done with the cord lash, as it
gives to It the qualities of an elastic
sling shot"
For the whip handle take any
springy stick about 2 feet lcng-a
small tree branch will do, and notch
it near one end as shown in Fig. 2
to receive the whip lash. Any stout
cord will do for the lash. Fasten two
or three rubber bands together by
looping them end to end, and tie
about two-thirds of the length of the
cord 10 one end and the other third
to the other end. After tying the
cord to the whip handle tie a hard
knot at the free end.
