But it was different last night. The

posed of unquestioned artists. both in
voice and acting. gave us the Verdi
masterpiece in English, and we were
enabled to enjoy it to the fullest, to
find new beauties in it that were not
disclosed before. Incidentally, the
production emphasized the fact that
grand opera can be produced in this
country, by Americans, and in En-
glish, and that the time is not far
distant when we will cease to depend
entirely upon importations to satisfy
our taste for the classical in music.
The idea that we cannot have grand
opera lest it be furnished us by alien
artists at fabulous prices and in
foreign language must necessarily
lose its traditional force as this coun-
try develops great singers and great
musicians. The company which ap-
peared at the Casino is doing much

 DISCUSS DEFENSE
President and Chairman of House Military Affairs Committee Hold
 Conference Over Proposed Program

Washington, Oct. 25.-The defense program was up for consideration at a conference today between President Wilson and Chairman Hay of the house military affairs committed The program as framed by Secretary Gar rison already has, been approved by the president in it's general outlines and the conference was one of a se- ries to be held this week for com pleting the details.
 At a previous conference between Chairman Hay and the President Mr. Hay was said not to have approved all of the details of the plan. Since then he has made a careful study of the subject and was said to be ready to tell the president what he believed should be done.
 Senator Chamberlain, chairman of the senate committee, also proba bly will confer with the President this week He has been quoted as ap- proving the program in its main es- sentials.
