DAVID RISPHAM

In a season which threatens more
than the usual monotony of concerts
1t is refreshing to lind serious at
Tempt to produce good music in q novel
fashion. Such an attempt was made at
the uarris Theater by David Bispnam,
anu the enthusiasm of a large audi
full.
Mr.. Bispham's offering is in two
parts. He first introduces himself and
mis- company in an original musical en-
tertainment called The Rehearsal" in
which several solos and a concerted
number from Wagner's "Meisterslnger"
are supported by a mild foundation of
plot and dialogue in a setting of Il
modern drawingroom
This section of the program is
chiefly interesting because of the sound
philosophy OF Mir. Bispham's remarks
on the artistic life. 1t also serves to
introduce a promising young soprano,
Idelle Patterson, who sings some o.
cratic selections very creditably.-Ad-

MYSTERIOUS LAUNCH
AT NEW WESTMINSTER
Floats Down River Supposed
ly to Dynamite Big Bridge
Located There

New Westminster, b, G., March g.
Soldiers guarding the New Westmin,
lister bridge fired early Sunday on n
mysterious gasoline launch which crept
up to the bridge, stalled its engine, re-
fused to answer challenges and then
with the coming of a boat patrol,
speeded away into the fog, it became
known here today.
According to the story current, the
launch came drifting down the river
with all lights extinguished. 1t
bumped against the center span and
stopped while its occupants busted
themselves with their work, which was
believed by some TO have been the
placing Of explosives.
The guards on the main span chal'
lenged the strange craft, but no answer
being received, they piled into a
launch and started for the span.
Immediately the occupants Of the
mysterious launch heard the patrol
start, they cranked their engine and
dashed away down the river, amid a
hail Of bullets from the soldiers on the
bridge, and were soon lost In the fog.
