Asquith, As Secretary for War, Makes Public In
 structions to Paget ONLY GENERALS WERE ASKED FOR OPINIONS designations of Other Off cers Would Mean Disnis-
 sal From the Army

London, April The first act of Premier AsQuith in his new capacity as Secretary of State for War was to clear up the mystery surrounding the instructions given by the war office to General Sir Arthur Pagets command er-in-chief in Ireland.
 General Paget was summoned to London to give his chief a personal account of the orders he had received and issued and as result of the con ference Reginald McKenna, the Home Secretary, who is acting as leader of the House, was able to inform the Commons today that.
 'The only question General Paget put or intended to be put to the com manding officers in Ireland was whether they were ready to put their duty before any other considerations. It was not his intention that this or any such question should be put by the general officers to their subordi- mates.
 General PAget informed the gen eral officers of the promise given Nby the Secretary for War to officers whose homes were in Ulster to permit them to withdraw temporarily from their regiments in the event of operations becoming necessary in Ulster and he out Immediately the number of of f1cers who would withdraw on this ac- count.
 taThe Irish commander-in-ch chief was asked if any officer who could not claim this exemption would be allow ed to resign and replied that the re- suit of any refusal to do their duty could only mean their dismissal froTu the army.

John M'CormaCk. Worlds Greatest
 Lyric Tenor To Sing Here Soon
Foremost Artist Tn His Line to Appear at Polls New Theatre Sunday Evening.
 April 26, Under Auspices of Elizabeth Seton Guild.

John Mccormack the worlds great est lyric tenor is to appear at the new Polf theatre in Main street. Sunday evening, April 26 in a concert Of song Seton Guild, an organization composed of young women of this city who are doing much for charity.
 Bridgeport is indeed fortunate in that MT. Mccormack is to appear here for practically all of the larger cities in New England and the middle west have been c1annoring for the night that he has set apart for the delight of the music lovers of Bridgeport.
 MT. D. IF. McSweeney, the personal representative of MT. Mccormack was in this city today and completed the formal arrangements for the appear ance of the noted singer.
 MT. McSweeney said that Nr. Me Cormack had passed up 8 number of eother offers much more attractive from the financial viewpoint to come to Bridgeport because of a promise he had made some time ago to include the hust1ihg Park City among the New England cities he would visit this year.
 fine only other New England cities that have or will hear the noted artist this season are Boston, Springfield, New Haven and Hartford In Hart ford last week he appeared and over z,800 applications for tickets were re- turned because of the wonderful in terest taken in his appearance there
 Over 5000 applications were return ed when Mccormack appeared at the Hippodrome two weeks ago and his tour of Australia beat all records, the crowds which hocked to hear him never having been equaIled in the his tory of the country.
 Mir. McSweeney said that MT. Mo Cormack would repeat here the same concert numbers which won for him the plaudits of the press of two con tinents He sings in four tongues, Italian. French, German and English and Is universally regarded as the greatest lyric tenor of his day.
 No other concert singer in the his tory of America has attained such a success as John Mccormack. Dur ing his recent tour of Australia he was scomDelled to repeatedly change his itinerary in order that the larger cen .ters Of population might hear him again and again
 Mir Mccormack is a great artist; in fact, it is a debatable question if any living singer surpasses him in sweet ness of tone and wherever he has ap- peared in response to a return en- gagement unprecedented crowds ehave turned out to greet him.
