BURG GIRL.

Pittsburg, Pa, Oct 31.-The police
reserves had to be called out this
morning to scatter the crowds that
nobbed a good looking and ingenious
girl whose only offense was reconci!-
ing an ordinary umbrella to the new
military styles.
The girl was sinking along Du-
quesne street with the fashionably
snaky walk and black umbrella. Also
she wore one of those hats with sin
gle decoration that looked like q
walking stick that had blossomed out
into feather buster at the distant end.
1t started to rain. Inquisitive men
wondered how the girl was going %
get that hat under an umbrella whose
handle was shorter than the millinery
~OCOI dIlOn, SH0 uiuu I.
Instead she raised the umbrella,
poked the plume through neat little
hole that had been cut in the umbrella
cover, and continued her way uncons-
eernedly up Duquesne street.
1t appeared presently that she was
the only one that was unocncerned
about it. Crowds that followed got so
/, thick that the girl could get no further
hand had to be rescued from the jost-
7 ling mob by police reserves from
nearby station

"Greater Than Ever
Says New York Papers
Of Paderewksi's Playing

Three of the great New York music
critics, in their stories Of Paderewskis s
final recital last Saturday in New
York, used phrases like this in their
criticisms of the great players rendi-
tions, "PaderewslSt greater than ever. "
Here are the first and last two par
agraphs from considerably over a COL

The New York Evening, Post last
Monday: ~. -.
German universities have what
they call an 'akamedisches Viertep, a
quarter of an hour given the students
to go from one lecture room to anoth-
er. In our concert halls this interval
is usually ten minutes. .Paderewski's
once was forty minutes through a
misunderstanding, but usually it is
about twenty. That's what it was Sat-
urday afternoon, when he gave his
third recital. The 5000 seats in Car
negie hall were sold several days in
advance, as always when this magi-
clan appears, and the audience was
not only remarkable for its size and
promptness (no late arrivals), but for
its genuine enthusiasm and evident
appreciation of the rare treat offered.
Musically, the American public has
never done anything more lcreditable
to it than this demonstration that 1t

his hearts blood. Ordinary mortals
cannot conceive what a drain on ones

saved from a nervous breakdown by
an uninterrupted sleep of thirty four
hours), kindly added six extras to the
pieces on the programme. He had to

men have come forward with contri-
buttons both for the tree in the way of
trinkets for the tree and donations in
the form Of financial assistance.
The Shotwell Floral Co. has donated
a fine tree to the cause as was the
case a year ago. In every way The
Forum Good Fellow Christmas Cheer
movement bids fair to be the greatest
success ever this year.
All the poor children are urged to
write at once to Santa Claus. 1t is
expected there will be about 400 chill
dren to provide for this year.
Last year the number of children
exceeded the number of Good Fellows
so that at the last moment it was nee
essary to solicit additional donations
to meet a small deficit. This year it
is hoped this will be avoided by ev-
eryone contributing to the movement.
1t is a worthy one to help add a little
to the happiness of those little ones
whose Christmas cheer. may not be as
bright and gay as those more FORUM
ate. Everybody should do something
toward making some child happier
