THE LADY or THB sIdPPmR.

I1
 Charles Ddllingham,s sumptuous production Of 1.-The Lady of the Slip per- which will appear at the Park theatre on Wednesday night, will no doubt be the most notable musical of fering of the season.
 MT. Ddllingham's version of The Lady Of the Slipper achieved great success at the Globe theatre, New York. where it played for complete season. to say nothing of its record runs of one hundred and fifty nights at the Colonial theatre, Boston, and the same number of performances given at the Illinois theatre, Chicago. The production is a, most notable nu- sical offering with elaborate scenic embellishments. It is a musical fan tasy based on the old fairy story of Cinderella, set to music and interpret ed by capable cast headed by Charles Daily, Dan Healy and Miss Gretrla Eastman.

fore, he would be In perfect safety. It
Is evident that the greater the danger
space the more dangerous will be tho
rifle to the enemys troops. Since about
1906 Germany and France have adopted
the pointed bullet With this the re-
sistance of the air is greatly reduced
and the ranges obtained with the same
velocity. weight and calibrc are greatly
Increased.
BY Increasing the velocity the danger
space for any range is of course in
creased since the trajectory is much
flatter. and for the same "kick" of the
rifle much more powerful bullet Is OBJ
tained. Probably every country has de-
veloped, or is developing a semiauto-
matte rife, which differs from the ones
now in use in every army by the fact
that part of the powder gases are used
to open the breech block. eject the empty
cartridge, and reload the rfie-all OF
which operations are now performed by
hand.
with semiautomatic rifle the maga-
zine can be emptied without moving the
gun from the shoulder and a great in
crease in the rate of fire from the m
fantry will generally be delayed until
accurate aiming is possible, unless it is
desired to cause the enemy to deploy
it's forces earlier, and although the bul-
let's are effective at 1900 and 1000 yards
range, the real fighting will not bes'h
until at much closer ranges.

LIFE IN LIEGE SAD
Inhabitants Have to Remain Indoors
After 7 O'Clock,

An Italian who recently returned from
Liege reassured through the columns of
the Milan Corriere della Sera. relatives of
other Italian residents of the Belgian
city. None of them, he said, suffered in
the least at the hands OF the Germans.
Major Bayer, the German officer in COM
mand at the time. took particular care
of the Italian colony. and allowed every
member to go and come as he pleased.
Life in LEGO, however, says this in
formant is sad enough. All inhabitants
have to remain indoors after o'clock in
the evening. all the windows have to be
closed and all doors open. In those quar-
ters of the town where ammunition is
stored no one is allowed to enter any
shouse, his own included, from I o'clock
in the evening until o'clock in the
morning The italian consul at Liege, it
seems, Is taking prominent part in all
relief measures.
