GREAT PIANIST TO BE
WITH THE MUSICAL FESTIVAL

In the desire to gear the great
basso singer, Mr.. Myron w. Whitney,
the fact that an artist of rare ability
will appear with him should not be
forgotten. Miss Marguerite Valen-
tine is young pianist of very pleas
ing personality, and hailed by all the
Eastern critics as one of the great
est pianists heard last season This
is her second season with. Mr.. Whit
ney. She has brilliant technique,
combined with the charm of. tone col
ors, impressive warmth and beauty of
expression. Every piano pupil in
Paris should make it point. to. hear
this great artist on November %, at
the Paris Grand.
OF Mr.. Whitney. the New. York
Times says: His. art and his manner
of presenting it are well-known in New
York. and hfs singing gives pleasure
from the Unaffected and sincere quail
ity and his agreeable voice and
style
These two artists, together with
the Festival Orchestra, under the di-
rection of Mr.. Morehead, will surely
mark an epoch in the musical history
of Paris. and furnish a rare treat for

OLD OFFICIALS vicTORS
IN THE 8uRLEY FIGHT

After an all-night session, Tuesday
in which the lawyers of the opposing
sides in the election of the directors
for the Burley Tobacco Company
were in a continued wrangle over the
legality of votes offered, the balloting
for the directors began Wednesday
morning at 2:20 o'clock, with the in
dications that the following twenty

A. Thomas, F. A. Griffith, W. M. Math-
ers, Ben Franklin, Glover Kyle, John
G. Pirtle, Ambrose Dudley, John F.
Fryer.
The only test of strength between
the opposing sides came near mid
night when the old management's
forces won a decisive victory, which
was taken to indicate a sweeping vic
tory for the old Board. The test vote
occurred when a motion was intro
L
one of the old Boards counsel, that
the stockholders proceed at once to
the election of board of directors of
thirty-one members for the ensuing
year.
After a long wrangle, Mr.. j. N.
Kehoe, recognized leader of the oppo-
sition forces, introduced an amend
ment to this motion, calling for the
election of board of twenty-one
members instead of thirty-one, togeth-
er with reduction in the salaries of
the various officials.
| That part of his amendment calling
for a reduction of the salaries was
| held out of order, but the part refer
ring to the number of directors to be
chosen was held to be in order, and a
| vote was called for
The vote was viva voce and the
! amendment was defeated by an over
whelming majority The original
motion as introduced by Mr.. Pendle-
! ton was then carried by the same vote
| and the result was taken to mean a
victory for the old board.

The benefits are said to be three.

few hours whether he is natural
victim Of typhoid-that is, whether
his natural resistance against this
particular malada is abnormally high
or low
2. Vaccinated persons may ascer.

3. The length of time that elapses
before a vaccination loses it's potency

slightly with individuals, and has
hitherto been conjectural.

encountered upon the frontier in the
early days OF strife with the invaders

scenes and incidents just as encount-
cred and experienced by those who
braved the storm and hardships of
the early life in the days that the play
demonstrates. The piece comes to
this. city with the very highest of en-
dorsements as to it's worth and from
authentis reports of the various Giles

Not alone that, but it is acknowledged
the financial success of the season,
