Treasures sent over to England
by France during the days of the
revolution which have never been
claimed because the owners and
their heirs were put to death have
recently been added to by similar
ones sent from Belgium for safe
keeping. All the spare rooms in
Wirsor Castle from attic to cellar
are filled with gold, silver, rare
furniture, porceIains, tapestries,
manuscript ETC., hurridly gathered
together, and it is said that the
homes of many of the english
families as we'll as those of roy
atty are safe guarding treasures of
friends and others.

and paraphanalia of his genuine
patron saint, Old Santa Claus re-
ceived with Mrs. Cannon on Tues
day afternoon when she enter
tanned The Book Club and a num-
Der of other guests at a lovely
Christmas party. Holly and mis-
tletoe were used with artistic
effect for decorations and crimson
shaded lights threw a brilliant hue
upon the handsomely gowned
ladies. The antics of Old Santa
with horns and bells kept the
guests amused until the late arri-
walls struggled in, then portieres
were drawn aside with the doors
of an adjourning room and a bead
tiful tree was disclosed, all aglow
with tiny tapers and with his ma
jesty leading, all crowded around.

Then the fun began as Santa Claus
distributed the gifts reading a
clever presentation verse which
illustrated some trait or charac-
teristic of each guest and as the
last package was cut from the tree
he made the brightest kind of a
speech in verse, full of good wishes
for all. Then few minutes were
allowed in which to guess the
identity Of Santa Claus who car
ried out his character so well and
a prize was presented to Mrs.
Freeman for being able to pene-
trate the disguise of Mrs. Gainnie
Hyams.
The japanese game of keeping
a feather in the air and putting it
into basket by tanning it and
keeping hands off, was unsuccess-

The president of The Mutual
Aid requests that all appeals for
aid be made to her by phone or
letter and that the interested
friends do not send those needing
help, in person, until told to do so.
A strict rule of the Association
requires that a case be investi-
gated before aid is given. as so
many impositions and frauds have
been perpetrated upon the Mutual
Aid, that this rule was made abso
lutely necessary, but when an ap-
peal is made if worthy the Execu-
tive Committee Immediately looks
into it and help is given at once.
So, much embarrassment for all
concerned will be saved and time
as we'll. if the application is made
asrequested above.

Yvonne de Trevflle, who arrives
here January ~ and will give two
concerts in the, Hawaiian Opera
house, has been more than usually
favored by the critical European Ru-
sic lovers. II is considered an I'M
failing test by all operate aspirants
to achieve the praise of the contin.
entail critics and Miss de Treville re-
ceiyed her share in unstinted meas
ure. @e" +
DR.. Wilhelm KienZel, a noted CON-
poser and critic, said the following of
the American singer: 88"tYvonne de
Treville is prima donna of the high
est rank! In her vocal art, which re-
calls the best epoch of the Italian
virtuoso, everything is at the highest
point of perfection. Add to this per-
feet taste, a lovely warmth of inter
pretation that is rarely met with in
a culoratura singer"
! From the Fremdenblatt, published
in Austria, Vienna, where Miss de
Treville made notable appearance,
the press wrote of her in the follow.
ing complimentary terms.
"Yvonne de Treville's voice shines
in youthful splendor Her art has
attained its zenith. She is an artistic
in, full possession of her powers,
knowledge, youth and temperament,
absolutely natural and absolutely
spontaneous. She has been equally
gifted with all natures charms.
Her voice is OF refreshing quality
in all registers, full and flexible; the
lImbre permits of the fullest crescen-
do and melting pianissimo; the into
nation is faultlessly pure, and the 2h
octave scales compel our admiration
by their. eyenness. And, as de Ire
vile adds to these great gifts a mar.
velous facility OF execution, she is a
perfect phenomenon among the sing
ers OF our time"
The dates for the concerts have
been arranged for Saturday, January
81, and Thursday, February 5.
