OUTLAWS HIDDEN
 IN DESERTED MINE
TWENTY MEMBERS OF HEN ERICKSON CLAN BOTTLED UP
 IN KENTUCKY MINE.

Pineville, Ky, Dec. 27.-'When dark ness fell tonight no attempt at es- cape had been made by the twenty members of the Hendrickson clan of mountaineers who are concealed in a mine near here. The four entrances to the mine are guarded by a squad of thirty-five picked militiamen un- der the command of Assistant Adju- tant General J. Tandy Ellis. It is ex. pected tha. freezing weather and a lack of provisions soon will bring the refugees to terms
 Thomas Hendrickson, father of the three brothers who are the leaders of the clan concealed in the mine was arrested today and charged with conspiracy to kill Thomas Milere, whose murder last Wednesday caus- ed a battle between the Hendrickson clan and a posse.
 Presley Hendrickson is known to be seriously injured. with bullet wound in his chest, and his two broth CTS also are slightly injured. Bon. fires blazed at the entrance of the mine tonight and the troops and many spectators settled down to a cam. paign of starvation of the clan

MOVEMENT FOR AN
 AUXILIARY B.M.L.
EXAMPLE LITTLE ROCK MADE IN THE MATTER STiRS SOME
 LOCAL ENTHUSIASM.
Movement Would Be to Get Younger Business Men and Workers into a Separate Organization.

A young mems auxiliary to the Business Mems League, following the example of the young men of Little Rock, who at this time have one of the most progressive organizations in the state, is being advocated by some of the younger business men and workers of the city who believe That in this hour of apparent lethargy they might be able to start some thing"
 Some of the young men of the city have discussed the question, but have not reached determination as to the exact policy that might be pursued, whether the organization should be wholly separate, and merely meet in the quarters of the League, or wheth- CT the organization should be in the nature of an auxiliary 70 the League, and work in a cooperative way with the League, and not out on it's own hook
 The very closely drawn constitu- ton of the League. which was origi- nally organized merely for the pur- pose of carrying on an advertising campaign in connection with the big interests and the railroads, has ire quently of late been the subject of comment, and there seems general disposition that this should be en- arged, or that if the League work is to be kept confined to such things as its constitution will permit, anoth- CT organization, such as young mems chamber of commerce, might be organized, with a view of rounding the younger men of the city up into live organization.

Harrison Fisher Girl Known All Over United States Through
Medium of Magazine Covers and Other Forms of Popular
Art Is About to Change Her Character

NEW YORK, April 4.-The Harri-
son Fisher girl, known from end to
end of the country through the me-
dunn of magazine covers and every
other form of popular art, is about
to change her character. No longer
is she to be classical and serene of
feature. No longer is She to be seen
full of repose. She is to be dark
and vivacious. She will be discov-
cred in poses of action and merri-
ment. She is to become the apostle
of feminine activity, of the strenuous
life expressed in terms of beautiful
womanhood.
This is merely because Harrison
Fisher, the artist who creates the
girl, has acquired new model. Alice
Joyce is the name of the young
woman who is to work this sudden
change in the Fisher art. She 1t is
whose characteristics of face and
spirit are to be seen reflected from
periodical covers, postcards and cal
endars the country over.
Such role of prominence comes
natural to her. Her face is almost as
familiar to Americans as is that of
President Wilson. She is one of the
leading actresses of a prominent firm
of moving picture producers, and

have taken for his paintings. and.
though passionate emotion would be
as foreign to her nature and her art
as to any Flemish maiden, this is
more than compensated by the gentle,
lovely attraction of her beauty. Her
smile is a magnet and her pose is a
delirium.
Miss Jane Herbert as Ortrud more
than fulfilled the expectations which
she aroused when she appeared as
Seibel in Faust"
The dramatic power of her voice
was its chief merit. Her facility of
expression was marvellous and her
histrionic excellence was such as
might be expected from one in whom
intelligence was SO manifestly en-
throned. Her glorious beauty of face
and form, of course, added to her
triumph. Miss Julia Grant sang the
role of Esa's brother, Gottfried.
She was dainty and she sang accept
ably the small part assigned to her.
Leonid Samoloff, as Lohengrin, in the
farewell, "Mein Lieber Schwan," sang
with a grace and JUNCTION worthy of
the consummate artist. George
Shields, as Henry, King of Germany,
again proved how superb is the
quality of his bass voice, and the dig
nifty which was half-veiled in Mephis-
topheles, was fully apparent. The
nobility of his rendition of the part
was marked Morton Adkins, as Tel
ramund, gave every indication OF
being a fine interpreter of dramatic
music. His voice has dramatic
quality.

the celluloid films have flashed her
face from end to end of the country.
The qualities which brought her TO
the top of the acting profession have
proved equally attractive to the art
list. Before the movie camera her
beauty, vivacity and expressive ges-
lures were found unusually effective.
Before the artists easel they have
proved equally attractive.
She replaces in part number of
models, all familiar to Americans
through the pen of Harrison Fisher.
OF these, the girl who has stood in
the past as most nearly the original
of the Harrison Fisher girl has been
Miss Catherine Clements, an Ameri-
can girl of French and Irish parent
age. She has posed for Fisher for the
last nine years, commencing when she
was IA The illustrator has made
more drawings of her than of any
of his other models, and he has done
some of his best work from her.

George c. Kankins, wife of wealthy

burned herself to death yesterday
afternoon to escape being sent to an
asylum.
Mrs. Hankins had been i'll and her
husband and her physician decided
that she should be sent to an asylum

Yesterday her husband preached
the subject again and said he had
made up his mind to send her to an
institution. The husband then left
the house TO get some water.
A moment after he had gone the
woman secured a can Of kerosene oil
and poured the oil over her clothing.
Then she procured match and set
fire to the soaked clothing. Instantly
she was a living torch.
Her screams were heard by her
husband. who hurried into the house.
He dashed a pail of water over her,
and then wrapped a blanket about
her. He finally eXtinguished the
flames. but not before she had been
terribly burned.

'LOHENGRIN' SUNG
At THE NEWARK
Miss Helena and Miss Herbert
Win LaureIs as Elsa
and Ortrud.

'Lohengrino was sung by the Aborn
English Grand Opera Company at the
Newark Theatre last night. The au-
dience was meagre, but in some de-
gree it gave a more generous greeting
to the artists of the organization than
was accorded them when they sang
Faust" on Monday evening. The APP
was, and there seemed an effort to
show that the opera had made deep
impression. 1t was inevitable that it
should. 1t was sung with power and
sympathetic feeling. The orchestra
and chorus again distinguished them
selves by their sincerity and their
proof of careful and severe training.
a friend of Wagner, one WHO knew
and lived with him when he was for
mulating his theory of the musical
poem and gradually preparing for the
great drama of the Niebelnngen, al
ways spoke of "Lohengrin' as the
definite departure of Wagner from all
traditions of the latinized opera, This
gentleman. during his later life
distinguished New York journalist,
said that in the composition of "Lo-
hengrin" Wagner embodied in musi-
cal form his theoretical conception
that in the German musician there
must of necessity arise an ideal aim
in respect to the opera. This he could
not find in the pleasing form made
popular by Italian and French COM
posers, and therefore, he Jagged
behind in operate development
But, finally, going back to the
Greek, the origin of all European art
he found a purely. human form, ODE
dent only to certain external limits.
Thus in "Lohengrin." as later in the
Ring" there is not note that has
not the direct purpose of giving must
cal expression to the drama. And the
artists who interpret this music
drama must be possessed of the
single minded aim of the composer or
they are unworthy to approach it.
Let us now speak of the members
of the cast individually. Miss Edith
Helena as Elsa, of Brabant. was as
attractive as in the role of Margue-
rite, and her acting as Elsa was SUI
perior. The nexibilty and purity of
her voice were quite surprisingly eX-
hibited, notably in the Cavatna,
"Einsam in Trueben Tagen," and in
her duo with Ortrud. There was
melting tenderness, also. in the ex-
preston which she infused into her
part. She is a model Makart might
