THE MOZART CONCERT COM.
PANY,

The name Mozart Concert Company
Is coming to be one Of the best known
names on the Redpath list. For three
years past it has been a name which
has appeared on the announcements of
hundreds of Lyceum courses and over
a wide territory. The company the
coming year will be the same as last,
except that William T. Shaffer will
appear as the vocal soloist.
Audrey Spangler Mortland has been
with the company four years. She has
a delightful personality. She combines
in her programs that rare gift of being
both an excellent pianist and an ex-
cellent reader. Pianologues are an i'm
portant part Of her program. Either as
a soloist or accompanist, Mrs. Mort
land plays with that finish which is a
positive delight

PLAY Best ExernisA

The best kind Of exercise is the
kind that makes you forget that you
are exercising-in other words play,
says a physician. It's a good scheme
to have some more or less strenuous
game for hobby-golf or bowling
or tennis or archer.--anything that
appeals to you and affords exercise
with interest. But this is not saying
that systematic exercise is not good
thing, too.

Of protection. The sun spurge has a

The SCIENCE
OF AVIATION
Has Made Greatest Progress
Since Orville Wright's
First Flights.

Washington, May 13.-The remark
able advance made in the science OF
aviation since Orville Wright made
the first public flights in heavier
than air machine at Fort Aycr, Va,
in 1908, is the subject ola statement
compiled by the war department and
just made public. Although the
honor of inventing and utilizing the
aeroplane belongs to the United
States, it is disclosed that virtually
all the advances made in the utiliza-
tion of the air machines have been
accomplished by foreign air lnen, ,prin-
cipally Frenchmen.
In 1909. the records show, the
greatest height attained by heavier
than air machine was 1,450 feet. The
mark now stands at more than 10000
feet, while the height Of something
over 10000 feet has been attained by
dirigible balloon. The aeroplanes.
however, have demonstrated that they
can rise hiher and much more rapid
ly than the balloon type of air craft
and for that reason their efficiency
in a military sense is regarded as
much greater. In both speed and
duration of flight the strides made
since 1909 have been remarkable. In
that year, the speed record was As
miles an hour, while the length OF
time that a machine kept in the air
was 4 hours and II minutes. The
present record for speed now is 1853
miles per hour, made by Vedrines of
France, while another Frenchman,
Fournier raised the record for dura-
tion of flight to 10 hours and II min
utes.
Busson still another Frenchman, re-
Gently established a record for speed
with passengers. With five persons
with him In his machine he made "a
miles an hour in sustained flight. The
war department records show that
six persons have been carried to a
height OF 2,053 feet.

SCRIPTURE
Found Ia Old Manuscripts
Found In Egypt s
Years Ago.

London, May 13.-Some long-miss-
ing verses of the New Testament are
included in the manuscripts of the
gospels discovered in Egypt six years
ago and purchased by Chas. l.. Freer
of Detroit, Mich, according to a
study made of the Freer manuscripts
by the Times. A facsimile of the
manuscripts has been presented to the
British museum by the University
of Michigan to which Mr.. Freer as
signed the task of publication and ac-
cording to the Times study, there
have been found in the gospel of st.
Mark several verses. which occur in
no other known manuscript of the
New Testament, although they were
known to st. Jerome who quotes part
of them.
In the Freer manuscript, after the
passage in which it is said that Jesus
upbaided His disciples for their un-
belief, the text continues as follows:
"And they excused themselves, say
ing that this age of lawlessness and
unbelief Is under Satan, who through
the agency of unclean spirits suffers
not the true power of God to be ap-
pretended.
"For because, said they unto Christ,
reveal now at once Thy righteous
ness.
f"And Christ said unto them, the
limit Of the years of the power
of Satan is mott fulfilled. but 1t
draweth near. (The text here and
elsewhere is corrupt).
For the sake of those that have
sinned was l given up unto death.
that they may return unto the truth
and sin no more. but may inherit the
spiritual and incorruptible glory of
righteousness in heaven"
A large number OF variations in
other portions of the New Testament
are also pointed ont by the Times in
the Freer manuscripts.

NARROWLY MISSES
FATE OF TITANIC
Luckily Escapes Contact
With Any Sharp Section.
Boat Going Dead Slow At Time
Because Of Dense
Fog.

Montreal, May 1.-THE fate Of the
Titantic was narrowly escaped by the
steamer Chiltern Range in a collision
with an iceberg to the east of New
foundland Banks on her voyage from
Hull to this part, where she arriv-
ed today.
The bow plates Of the steamer, .
British freighter. were badly deuted
by the glancing blow she struck the
berg. and only the fact that she
luckily slid off the ice mass and es-
capped contact with any sharp section
Of the underlying portion Of 1t saved
her from disaster, in Captain. Rea's
opinion.
The berg was struck in latitude
46.3s north and longitude 44.40 west,
in the track of the oceanliners, but
some distance to the north and east
Of he spott where the Titanic met
her fate. After the collision, the
steamer was surrounded by icebergD,
which, although they could not be
seen because of fog, evidenced their
presence by the echoes that resounded
from their towering sides at every
blast from the steamers whistle.
1--WE were going dead slow because
of the dense fog" said Captain Rea
tonight in describing the steamers
experiences. Suddenly an iceberg
loomed up to starboard which l es-
timated to be at least from $50 to
200 feet high. 1t lowered above W.
The vessel touched it with her star
board bow, but the impact only bad
ly dented couple of her plates. The
Children Range struck the berg q
glancing blow.
What l was most afraid Of was
that an underlying spur Of the Ice
berg might rip the ship open, as was
the case when the Titanic struck.
When the ship slid away from the
berg we went to the, eastward, but
very slowly. We stood away till dark
and lay all night with the engines
almost stopped. We were surrounded
by icebergs for. though we could not
see, we could hear them. After every
blast of the whistle sound like the
report of gun followed from twenty
to thirty seconds later" -.

Is Issued By A. O. Stanley

Congressman Believes In Pitching
Everyman's Candidacy, on
High Plane.

Washington, D. c., May 10.--Rep-

Dear Sir: l am advised that you
are candidate for the senate. l
will speak in behalf of my candidacy
for that office. in Glasgow, on Mon
day, May 10, at 1880 y. m. and take
this occasion to respectfully render
you q division of tiAe.
81 heartily approve of the resolu-
tion adopted by the Democratic press
of Kentucky recently assembled at
Louisville defining their attitude to-
ward candidates in their own party,
declaring that faithful and efficient
service in the past is the best evil
dence, and earnest TO their future
condition in office, and that the real
standard by which they should be
measured, and the real issue between
them relative in their fitness for the
positions they seek.
by pitching every mans candi-
dacy upon this high plane irrevelant
issues are excluded and personalities
and party dissentions are prevented.
''There is fitting rebuke to such
mongrel Republican organizations as
the Louisville Post, who unbidden
have obtruded themselves into a
Democratic house and unblushingly
have attempted to dictate the issues
and dominate the councils of the
party:
Our countrymen can then try us
by the high standard suggested by
the Democratic editors of Kentucky
and can more accurately Judge of
Jour past records and our present ef-
ficiency and capacity to serve them
when afforded an opportunity to hear
us discuss face to face our respective
claims to their support.
"In this campaign your record and
mine will be placed in evidence and
made an issue. He who scrupulously
avoids making any comment upon
the conduct of an opponent not true
and not fully sustained by the proof,
is never embarrassed by the necessity
of uttering in the presence of an ad-
versary. l shall say nothing about
you, that am not more than pleased
to say to you, while at the same
time affording you an abundant op-
portunity to expose or refute any in
accuracy then and there.
"You are respectfully invited to
be present at the opening of my
campaign for the senate with the as
surance that fair division of time
will be cheerfully accorded
Yours truly.
