Little jeanette Macdonald, who has
attained the great old age of ten,
sings a high soprano of so wonderful
a volume that, if one closes his eyes
while she is singing, he may easily
imagine he is listening TO asome
famous diva of grand opera. Her
versatility is so wonderful, however,
that she can likewise sing alto; al
though there is not as much sweet
ness in her voice in this as when she
sings soprano.
Charles Specie, who is fifteen. is a
tenor which is said to be of the
rarest occurrence in one so young.
Ten-year-old Charles Kleeman and
nine-year-o Bessie Cole, sing and
dance delightfully."-. They are grace
full far beyond their years, and the
little boy never fails to captivate the
audience with his wink. while little
Bessie makes an equally great con-
quest by the bewitching way in
which she throws kisses in greatful
acknowledgment of applause.

Declares American Women
Are Travelling Too Fast

CHICAGO, June 3.-Women of to-
day are travelling the pace so fast
that they are becoming agnostic' and
the church pews of the next genera
ton will be filled entirely by men,
according to Owen johnson, who is
visiting in Chicago. He also declares
that woman's yearning for excite
ment is causing her to revolt socially,
industrially and morally, and that
she is destined to throw all conven-
lions to the winds ere long.
Men have long since slipped out
from under the influence of the
church." Mr.. Johnson said last night.
1.-THE women are now assuming the
same attitude, They ere becoming
agnostic. They have ceased to stand
in awe and fear of the church.
