When John Mccormack, the IA
nous lyric tenor, appears at the Pal
ace Ball Room, this city, on the
evening of Tuesday, April IA he will
be accompanied on the piano by
Vincent O'Brien, choirmaster of the
cathedral in Marlborough street,
Dublin. 1t was OBrien who dis
covered" Mccormack as singer
when Mccormack went to Dublin to
take the civil service examinations
for position under the government.
That was some discovery, it must
be admitted. But as a discoverer
O'Brien didn't stop there Having
put Mccormack through a compare
lively brief course of instruction and
having had the satisfaction of seeing
him win first prize in a big singing
contest in the Irish capital, he made
a further discovery, and that was
that another of his talented pupils,
certain Dublin girl was eminently
qualified to aid him in the task of in
stilling into the mind of the young
tenor the conviction that fame and
fortune were within his grasp If he
would only reach out for them.
And so it was that Lily Foley and
John Mccormack were made ac-
quainted with each other. 1t was a
good, old-fashioned> case of love at
first sight" and there has been no
cause on the part of either, ever
since, to question the good and kindly
judgment of the Dublin choirmaster.
II guess there is nobody who has
heard me sing oftener than my wife
has" says Mccormack.
81 guess there's nobody who. enjoys
my husbands singing more than
do" says Mrs. Mccormack.
Cyril is now seven, a fact which
was duly chronicled last week, on
the strength of a big birthday cele-
bration at the Hotel Netherland, New
York. where his parents are now
staying, and PEGGY will be six
next August. They, too, are faithful
attendants at every concert at which
their father appears, when they hap
pen to be in the neighborhood, or
when it isn't necessary for them to
stay UP too late. And they are both
talented singers, too, like their
father and mother.

family?" someone asked Cyril, as he
was strolling in Central Park the
other day
Papa came the quick reply.
And so 1t is. Papa is the big
brother. If there is one thing he
enjoys more than to con over a new
song or deep work of philosophy,
it Is to romp with Cyril and little
Peggy.
Children are great philosophers, -
he says. They are open books, but
they are also very deep. They keep
you turning over new leaves all the
time"
Who shall tell what inspiration this
sweetest Of Irish ballad singers de-
iives from daily contact with these
little comrades of his? He calls them
q post graduate course, after his long
term of instruction under one of the
greatest of Italian masters in the art
of voice culture. Those things which
touch our own hearts give us the
grace to touch hearts of others.
The world may we'll thank this
woman and these two children, who
have had such influence upon the ca
reer of John Mccormack. But there
| is another woman who also had a
great influence upon his career. She
was famous when he was all but I'M
known. Her name is Mary Anderson.
She heard him sing at a musicale in
London and recognized at once the
power that was in him to stir and
sway the human emotions through
the divine gift of song.
This is a voice the world will de-
light to hear" she said.
The weight of her word gave him
place in big concert, and then and
there his reputation and fortune were
made.
The career of John Mccormack has
been described as meteoric. AS a
matter of fact, it is simply the nat
ural process of genius coming to its
own. Yet there are things. such as
influence of good women, which act
as a spur to bring this genius the
more swiftly and surely to its APP
| pointed place.
The sale of tickets for the concert
has begun at Lauter's, 59S Broad
street.

Blames Prison Outbreak
to "COddIing" of COnvicts

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, April g.
Various causes were given by the
three members of the board of prison
directors for the outbreak at Fo som
prison last Saturday in which four
prisoners were killed. Director
Charles Sonntage declared today that
it all came of treating the prisoners
too well and eoddl ng them
TREY L. Ford believed the crowded
condition of the prison, necessitating
the removal of the prisoners to the
partially completed building where
the attempt to escape was made was
responsible. Warren Porter said that
publicly expressed sent mental sym
pathy with convicts had made the
prisoners believe that the guards
would not dare shoot them to prevent
their escape,

ENGLAND MAY
MODIFY EMBARGO
AUSTRALIAN WOOL

Washington, Nov. 11.-Ambassador
Page has reported from London that
Great Britain for the present Is UNI
willing TO modify the embargo on the
expectation of wool from Australia.
Wool dealers, however, are hoping to
continue negotiations through the
state department SO as to enable them
to participate in the auction sales soon
to be held in Australia.
The British government is UNDER
stood to have replied to Ambassador
Page that for the present the mother
country would use all the wool raised
in Australia, though when it became
apparent that there would be a sur
plus, some arrangement might be
made whereby American firms could
obtain part of the product. The only
condition under which they could get
any wool, however, would be with
guarantees that the product would be
used only in manufacturing goods con-
tracted for by Great Britain.
Wool dealers have reported to the
state department that unless they are
able to know just when they will be
permitted to import wool from Aus
tralia, they cannot safely enter the
auction sales there.

YE-WITNESS GIVES DESCRIPTIVE
ACCOUNT OF BATTLESB between
TERR|TORIALS AND GERMANS

! ming the situation in this quarter was
the same as IL had been "a hours ear
lier.
That night some shells were thrown
into Ypres itself. Farther to the south
the Germans had during the previous
night re-taken the village of Messi-
mes and also had captured Wysrchact.
BY II A. NJ. our cavalry drove them
out of the latter place by n brilliant
bayonet charge, but we did moi occu-
py it. A few of the prisoners taken at
this place were only II years of age
and said that they had had practical
Iy no training and little food. Some OF
them had never fired a rife before.
During the action around these two
villages the Germans moving across
our front suffered very greatly from
the massed fire of our horse artillery
at short range, but though they fell
literally in heaps, they came on with
admirable determination.
South of the Ly some of the trench
es which had been lost were recap
tured by US; otherwise the situation
remained as it had been. The enemy
contented themselves with bombarding
our trnches.
lessor, who was captured. stated as
his opinion that Germany reaiizeo
that she had failed in her object and
was only fighting in order to obtain
good terms.
During the afternoon. German
aeroplane was captured quite unin-
jured. On the second, on our left, the
pressure was still kept up towards
Ypres, and at first our line was once
more forced back, but 1T was restored
towards evening by a vigorous adj
vance carried out in cooperation with
the French who were rendering US
very timely assistance.
The maximum effort of the Ger
mans on this day. however, was more
to the south of Ypres. as If to drive
q wedge between that town on the
north and Armentieres on the south,
and the bombardment of our positions
in this quarter of the held was eepe-
cially heavy. though it was well re-
piled to by a concentric fire from our
guns and those of the French. y
More to the south the enemy adj
yanced in force but were checked. On
our extreme right several assaults
were repulsed though at one or two
points the Germans gained ground
obtaining possession of
Nieuv Chapelle.
THE inundation around Newport
had by this day reached the enemy's
trenches and it is stated that two
heavy guns and some field artillery
had to be abandoned in the mud.
The third was, on the whole,
uneventful day, which
enabled our troops to get a much
needed rest. 1t seemed that the vio-
lence of the German efforts was abau-
ing, even the cannonading being in
some places less heavy than it had

IN
UNREST UNDER
GERMAN RULE

Luxembourg, Grand Duchy of Lux
emburg, Nev. II, via The Hague and
London, 11.25 A. M.-This small coun-
try which has almost been forgotten
since the commencement of the war,
is beginning to show signs of unrest
under the prolonged German rule.
Eneirely cut off from the rest of the
world and obliged to read newspapers
which, under strict German censor
ship are giving exclusively pro-Ger-
man information, the people show the
same tendencies to fly into panics and
to believe hysterical news as are SO
familiar in Brussels, Liege, Namur
and other Belgian cities where the
people, Systematically are kept in the
dark. They are now willing to believe
even the most incredible rumors.
The Luxemburgians have suffered
greatly since the Germans three
weeks ago stopped the iron industry
the main support of the country, by
forbiddng the use of dynamite. After
prolongued negotiations the operation
of the mines has been allowed. but sne
miners are Obliged to use other aud
less violent explosives.
The continual friction is apparent
between the Luxemburgians and the
Germans on the frontier. The people,
who ordinarily are bi-hngual under
pressure of the unlimited Germans,
now are exclusively using French as
the only means at their disposal of
showing resentment. the natives say
at their countrys invasion and con-
tinued domination.

GOV'RS DENOUNCE
UNFAIRNESS OF
FEDERAL GOVT

Madison, Wis, Nov. u.-Western
governors today before the Governors
conference denounced what they called
unfair treatment of public land states
by the federal government and urged
that the Western states be allowed to
develop the resources without inter-
ference from Washington.
Governor Ammons of Colorado
charged that the federal reclamation
service under three administrations
disobeyed the Presidents orders by re-
fusing to allow Colorado to use pub
lie lands for building a reservoir. He
charged that magazines printed one
sided conservation articles, full of mis-
statements. Among other things, he
asserted, they said that Rockefeller
owned all the coal lands in Colorado,
whereas he owned only 500 acres out
of $4,000 under lease by the state.
