making of the schedules. The games
will be played round robin so that
all teams will have an equal chance.

health of Kansas, who has just re-
turned from there
AS a result of Doctor Crumbine's

Because of the problems confront

at Camp Funston, Doctor Crumbine
said that Kansas City, the seat of 80
per cent of the trouble, is well known
in Washington. An order was about

AT GRAND OPERA

The entertainment designed and
executed for the faithful patronage of
the Grand this week consisted of matt
nee and evening performance of grand
opera in English presented by the
Boston English Opera company. 1t
is to be assumed that Americans,
should be grateful to hear their own
language in their concert halls and
opera houses. The Boston company,
therefore, may be thanked for its in
tentions and commended for the sin
cerity of purpose which prompts them
to seek intelligibility as an aid to
understanding on the part of the pub
lie. The public, however. didn't rally
to the support of English grand opera
as might have been hoped The after
noon attendance was slight, and the
evening a good deal larger, tho by no
means overwhelming. The attraction
of a Topeka girl, Hazel Eden, in the
leading role of the night performance,
the Bohemian Girl, probably accounts
for the fuller house in the evening.
Joseph Sheehan and Florentine st.
Clair played the leading parts in II
Trovatore, the afternoon offering. The
young woman who is Leonora in the
play is new to the Topeka public. She
is tall, slim and dark, with an impress
sive personality that enables her to
make herself and her emotions felt
without the aid of histrionic gew-
gaws In her manner is a restraint
that adapts itself well to the emotional
role she plays. Her voice was a pleas
ing surprise to any one who recalled
the price he paid for his ticket. Her
tones are clear and true, with a SYM
pathetic, violin quality. Her trills are
wonderfully well executed. Mr. Shee-
han is popular American tenor, who
has been heard in Topeka number
of times in opera He is growing
stouter, and fills out his medieval cos
tunes a big snugger with each sue
| cesslve visit, but his voice retains its
old time resonance and power
II Trovatore realizes its finest por-
| tons in its duets, and there is no opera
that contains such number of
familiar and well loved numbers
| which include THE Miserere," 20 Joy,
He's Saved and Home to Our Noun
tains." A favorite solo is Tempest of
| the Heart" and the piece also has the
| Anvil Chorus. The tunefulness of the
old Italian school, combined with its
florid and ornamental vocalization
makes these old time italian operas
perennial favorites
The opera Bohemian Girl. by Balfe,
| first produced in 1S43, retains its hold
| on the music loving public, and drew
| a better crowd yesterday than the
| Italian selection The leading role
was taken by Hazel Eden. whose early
home was in Topeka, and who has
| risen to her present place in the
musical world within the past few
years The company presents her as
its leading prima donna. The lyric
grace of her song touched up the old
melodies of the opera. keeping them
| from the fate of faded and meaning
| less tunes which so often faces the
best of songs when often heard Alto
| gether her presentation of the part
she took seems to have been entirely
satisfying to those who heard it.
