RECEIVES OVATION
Eugene Ysaye Delights
Large and Fashion
able House


Birmingham turned out in large num-
bers to greet Eugene Ysaye, the worlds
greatest violinist, who appeared in a
concert at the jefferson theatre last night
under the auspices Of the Music Study
club. Every part of the house was al
most filed and few of the 80 seats in
the parquet were empty The upper and
lower boxes were occupied. 1t was in
deed one of the largest audiences ever
seen at the Jefferson and it was both
fashionable and discriminating.
Appearing with ysaye was Camille De-
creus pianist. This was the programme
kreutzer Sonata op. Al CBeethoven),
Adagio- -Sostenuto Presto, Andante con
variazoni. Presto.
Concerto in minor No. . Saint
Saens), Allegro Appassionato. Andante
quasi alegretto. Finale con brio.
(a) Reverie Nocturne CDecreus); (b)
Fileuses prea de Carantec Rhene Batoy).
Mr. Decreus
Poeme (Chausson (a) Albumblatt
| twagner-w wilhelmD (b) Lointain Passe
| tYsaye); 6c) scherzo Valse (Chabrier-
Loeffler).
For an encore at the end of the pro-
| gramme Ysaye played a caprice by
| I<reisler.
The great violinist was in splendid
form, He felt what he played and he
made the audience feel with him. His
violin sighed and sobbed and laughed;
it talked and sang. If Ysaye was ever
the wizard of the king of instruments
he was that wizard last night A man
| of large frame and massive head, he was
most impressive to look at and one might
| think that his chief aim would be to
dazzle his listeners by powerful and
sweeping climaxes, but there was dainti-
ness, poesy and tenderness throughout
his artistry. which stamped him as a
wonderful tone poet as well as virtuoso.
The ISreutzer sonata, so well known and
so loved by serious students of music
| and so seldom heard in public, had a
| beautiful rendition. Mr.. Decreus was
fully equal to the piano part and. OF
course. Ysaye reveled in the violin part
1t would be hard to imagine anything
more soulful than the andante
The Saint-Saens concerto gave the vio-
linist fuller scope for technical achieve
ment and 1t was as melodic and charm
ing as it was difficult. The ''Poeme
by Chausson was another master work
that was greatly enjoyed and the group
of three short pieces added much to the
| interest as well as variety of the pro-
gramme.
Ysaye had Is or 90 recalls and Mr.. De
creus was recalled several times after
his double number. The concert was
one which will long be remembered and
music lovers can but feel most grateful
to the Music Study club for bringing
| Ysaye to Birmingham.
Mr. Decreus won first prize at the Con-
| servatoire of Paris in 1892 where he
studied under Charles deBeriot. who was
the son of the great violinist, deBeriot
The piano used was Chickerng,
The artists left last night for Georgia
where they will fill one or two engage
ments.

TO TAKE UP NAVAL
LEGISLATION AGAIN

Ottawa. Ont. April AFTER an in
terim of three weeks covering the Eas-
ter vacation and time spent in passing
urgent legislation the naval bill again
was taken up in parliament today. Pre-
mier Boden suggested that while he was
not desirous of restricting the debate he
be agreed upon.
Sir Wilfrid Laurier. leader of the op-
position, replied that the opposition con-
sidered the bill the most important that
ever had engaged the attention of par
lament and intimated that it was the
oppositions purpose to prolong the dis
cussion indefinitely. The reciprocity
pact, he said, was discussed by the con-
servatives six months in 1911.

Suffrage Issue Shelved

Des Moines, April 7.--Woman's suf-
frage was shelved today, so far as the
present legislature is concerned, when
the enacting clause was strisken out
of the Chase bill, requiring the subject
to be submitted to the women of the
state at the next general election. The
measure was not pleasing to the wom-
en- of Iowa, who had no funds to fight
for a favorable vote and feared apa athy
on the part of their sex would defeat
the suffrage amendment. Their efforts
killed the Chase bill.

And laven't they often wishel for the same

1t is no longer necessary for the woman
who likes to motor merely to wish-or wait
for man to take her driving.
The Chalmers is a man g car that his vile

Without Soiling Her Cloves

The brakes are large and double acting.
Chalmers ground gears shift so easily that
changing speeds is almost instructive. The
powerful long stroke motor responds instant
ly to the slightest adjustment of the throttle
The steering mechanism operates easily
surely.
Driving Chalmers isn't a matter OF
strength just matter of intelligence and
enjoyment.
For Chalmers handles well-like a per-
fectly trained horse. 1t seems to possess an
intelligence of its own that's due to right
design.

how easy it is to drive Chalmers

People Saw No Change

I'm the spring of 1872" continues WHEEL
pley, LESS than six months from the
over throw of the central government,
from Kwang to Manchuria, from
Che-kiang to Tibet. the people plowed
their ground. put in their crops reaped
their harvests, counted their 'cash,' be-
walled the drought or the flood, berated
the local tax-gatherer and knew not the
difference between the rule of the Man
chu and that of the provincial govern
| ment, or so-called republic which else
where in the world held the breathless
attention of the people of all nations.
THE China of today is the China of
| a year ago and years before that. There
has come no change in the landscape,
no change In the spirit, the virtues, or
| the vices of her people.
THE immutability of this race win yield
only with the slow process of time and
| then only from within. Such foreign
ideas as may be adopted will first be alb
sorbed. and then applied in a manner
| best fitted to their new and strange en-
| yironment. There will be no hasty trans
! formal tion scene in China, and he who
| stakes his all on such Will be lost in the
waiting As the tide alone moves the
| vast bulk of the ocean, so it is that only
great STRINGS from within will move the
| Chinese nation to, mark new paths for
| the goings and comings of the people.
ITO certain extent the wall is now
| down as far as China is concerned. The
minds of the people, however, are no diff
| ferent today from what they were year
| ago. They are still hypnotiZed by the
| vision of the wall, so much so that it
even now possesses a strength and sig
nificance far beyond that of the thou
| sands of miles of crumbling masonry,
penetrated as it is, by hundreds of un-
guarded gaps, which was the actual phys
| ical manifestation of exclusion TO the
| invader many years ago.

ditons will remain forever, for this would
| be as untrue as to say that a new China
| has appeared in the last 12 months"

ABOUT OUR GIRlS-...AaD BOYS

In the last issue of the Mirror !
read an article about protecting our
girl. How about our boys? How
about these parents who allow their
little boys to play marbles for keeps,
thereby teaching them the art ~
Of gambling? How about these
mothers who let their girls 60 skat-
ing without either father, mother or
older good woman to look after
them? Also how about girls chas-
ing through the woods on a so-called
possum hunt, with any kind of boy
companions who choose to go, and
no father or mother along to see
that there is no lettering behind OF
any of the crowd? Mothers, did you
ever stop to think of the real awful
dangers you put your girl into in
allowing them to run half wild?
Remember, God will hold YOC ac-
countable for your children's ac-
tons.
How many mothers know where
their children are or who they are
with EVERY night?
Now, hear every one say; 20,
my girls won't do so, like Mrs. So
and Sos girls" There is where
you are mistaken. Those are Just
the girls who do go wrong. We
can't be too careful of our girls.
And God pity the poor boys whose
father doesn't make a comrade and
chum of his sou or sons. Fathers,
won't you wake up and be a CHUM
with your boys? You can teach
them all they wan'D to know much
better than the rake who is always
looking for IA chance TO poison their
minds.
Last but not least, we should
know well if the teachers for our
young men and women are of good,
moral characters or not. They have
our children under their care SO
many hours and, Of course, influence
them to a certain extent. Parents,
wake ub and look after YOUR OWN
boys and girls before they are ruined
by your carelcssness and bring you
to disgrace for life.
