MANY WOMEN OF
RICHMOND HAVE
NOT REGISTERED
Urge Women Who Have Not.
to Register Before Satur-
day Night.

A seventy-five per cent. registration
OF women for war service may be
expected, according to incomplete re-
Of the county. Several of the town
ships are expecting q complete regis
tration.
Thursday was the most active day
of the registration week. Every booth
In the city reported the greatest mum.
Der Of women registering on that day.
The response met generally Is much
better than was expected, according
to the women In charge.
The ten thousand cards received here
for registration have been given out.
but it is not possible to learn just how
many of the cards have been used.
Mrs. Paul Ross, county chairman OF
the registration, found it necessary
to order more cards from Indianapolis
In order to obtain a complete census.
The women in charge of the regis
tration in Boston township, telephoned
Mrs. Ross Friday morning that all the
cards in that township would be in
by Saturday. and that it was thought
that there would not be more than
ten women in the entire township who
had not registered for service.
An equally good report was received
from Milton, where it was stated that
the Washington township registration
would probably be completed by Sat
urday. Through the registration in
Washington township eight workers
were added to the Red Cross work
there, the women in charge said.
The registration has disclosed a gen.
eral feeling of loyalty among the wom-
en- of Wayne county, the women who
have been at the registration booths
say. Women who have not registered
usually have failed to do SO, because
they did not understand the purpose
of the work, or because they were
afraid that they would be drafted and
taken away from their families.

People Die of Hunger in
Streets of Persian Towns
(By Associated Press.}

PETROGRAD, April 26.-People are
dying of hunger in the streets of the
large towns Of Persia, notably in
Hamadan and Senne, says dispatch
from Kazvin to the Rostovskaya Rech.
The spectre of famine has become
a fearful reality" the correspondent
wrote. ITO pass through two or three
streets in Hamadan or Senne is
enough enough to come upon two or
three dead bodies. Here and there
may be groups of women mourning
over their dead. Here is beggar
woman--a mother with two children;
one of them baby in arms, is dead.
and near the mother, on the ground Is
another child dying. The mother her
self is already motionless. with
frozen, unintelligent stare. The Pers-
ians, seeing that human being is
really dying. shove some bread into
the dying womans mouth, but the
belated help. of course. does not save
her life. THE poor villagers throng
from the villages to the towns hoping
in vain to be fed there.
Even in Kazvin. this more or less
well-to-do town. it has more than once
fallen to the lot or your correspondent
to take up from the streets people
stripped bare. who from exhaustion
have been liable to move. Mothers sell
their daughters. still mere children,
in order to secure a crust of bread
wives of poor men are giving to the
rich that their families may be main

ITALIAN PALACES
 NOW BEING USED TO SHELTER POOR
Long Disused They Are Be- ing Made Habitable to
 House Thousands

Rome, March 6.-The finest old palaces in Italy are gradually being turned into habitations again after centuries of disuse, due to the need for soldier hospitals and for shelter for the hundreds of thousands of re- fugees from the invaded provinces. Part of the immense palace at Caser- ta, built in 1752 for the King of Ma pies, commonly known as the Yer sailles of Italy has been turned into barrack for Austrian prisoners. Two years ago King Victor Emanuel and Queen Elena gave the huge royal pal ace on the Quirina1 hill in Rome for use as a hospital. and lately they even gave their own private apartments to refugee children.
 Among the buildings belonging to the Catholic church loaned for the same purpose by order of Pope Bene- diet is the monastery of St. Anselm, on the Aventine hill.
 The American Red Cross has re- commended the housing of refugees in | specially built huts as these palaces are unfitted for the home of poor or working people.

BEEKEEPING IN THE CITY

The State Apiarist of Iowa, MT. Frank c. Pellett, has written in the March Woman's Home Companion an article on beekeeping, in which he says:
 'None of the instances quoted in this article are in any sense farm stor- ies, but all are of bees kept in the residence districts of cities or large towns.
 "One case of special interest is from the capital city of Iowa. The hus- band and wife are both enthusiastic about the bees, but the man of the house is confined during business hours as a bookkeeper in a large re- tail establishment. The home is near car line and there are about three 'ots. which give ample room. From about one hundred hives of bees kept n the lots about their home they have sold nearly fifteen hundred dollars worth of honey in a single year. This 5 perhaps the largest amount they have been ablc to make in one year; out every year the bees add D sub- stantial sum to the salary earned by the husband and father. The wife does much of the work in caring for he bees. and from them the family bids fair shortly to pay for a home and a business which will support the family in comfort. There are nu- merous similar cases which could be pointed out whre bees are kept in the rear of town lots or even on top of business buildings in such large cities as Chicago"

WHAT'S GOING ON IN THE WORLD OF THEATRES AND AMUSEMENT
POLES

Tom Mix, as seen in the super -fea- ture photoplay release of the William Fox studios at the Poh theatre, is a lovable character. Rough and ready, his character nevertheless appeals to all who saw him Thursday and Friday in 'tSix Shooter Andy" His appear ance at the Poh theatre concludes to- day.
 Polls offers in addition to photoplay entertainment a big and surprisingly varied program of vaudeville. The Australian wood-chopping act, fea- turing H. Jackson and P. McLaren, champion axmen of the world, ready to meet all corners, is a stirring ex- hibitton.
 Another interesting act is "A Mex ican Romance," in which the troubles of a pair stranded in Mexico are re- produced amidst splendid scenic ef- fects.
 Olga, pretty dancing violinist, gives her violin art full sway and dances in a manner that impresses and draws her audience closely to her.
 The Zaronas, a def man and woman in a series of physical exploits on the ground ana aloft on trapeze, estound and charm by their skill and daring.
 The best black-face impersonation of the season is offered in a novel skiE by Miller & Lyles, foremost opponents on the vaudeville stage.

CECIL DECLARES
 FEAR FOR SIBERIA IN THE FUTURE

London, March - Lord Robert Cecil, Minister of Blockade, in a statement, yesterday pointed out the seriousness of the German menace in Siberia and urged Japanese interven- ton there. He added:
 we have information today that German prisoners in Siberia are be- ing organized and that a Prussian general has been sent to take charge of them"
 In Trans-Caucasia, said Lord Rob- ert, certain elements of the BoIshe- wiki, acting in collusion with German and Turkish agents, have adopted openly an anti-Entente' attitude and barred out the British mission which was going to help the Armenians. They have cut British wire communi- cations through north Persia with Tif1is and south Russia
 Lord Roberts said he had received assurances that many Russians would welcome a Japanese expedition to pre- vent the Germanization of Siberia. He added:
 "In fact, I cannot conceive any pa triotic Russian who would not prefer the assistance of a friendly power, aiming at the restoration of order, to conquest by a ruthless and unprinci- pied enemy.
 ''The Japanese alone can act ef- Actively in the present crisis. If they are intrusted by the allies with the duty of going to the assistance of Russia against Germany, I am sure they will carry out the task with per feet loyalty and great efficiency.
 From the outset of our alliance with Japan she has carried out with great fidelity all her obligations as an ally. We always have found her scrupulously loyal in the performance of her obligations.
 'I do not think it is generally req lized how tremendously serious the German penetration of Russia really is, or what a gigantic scheme of world conquest the Germans now have un- dertaken, It would be in the high est degree foolish, if not criminal, if the Entente failed to take every step possible to frustrate this German scheme.
 Therefore I personally believe we would be well advised to seek the as- sistance of Japan in a matter in which she, and she alone, can do ef- fective service"

Tomorrow. Sunday night will bring Louise Lovely in Painted Lips to the Plaza and there's little doubt but that the cosy little playhouse will be crowded to the doors at both per formanceS.
 Painted Lips is a drama of to- day, dealing with a delicate theme in a clever and interesting manner. It is one of those pictures that gives you something to think about and it af- lords Miss Lovely and her splendid supporting cast many excellent op- portunities for commendable action.
 Tonight's bill has many attractions of merit including ''The Honeymoon" with Constance Talmadge"; ''The Chinese Restaurant" with Roy and Arthur, the popular old timers; Jack Marley with his whirlwind mono logue; the Three Kashner Girls in songs and dances, and Dolph and Suzie Levine offering their comedy cartoon novelty.

Dr. M. L. Bartlett of Des Moines, Iowa, who is frequently and affec- tionately referred to as 'HThe Grand Old Man" of music in the middle West, after hearing the gifted coloratura soprano Galli-Curci, who is to sing at the State street Casino Thursday evening paid her the following tribute:
 Considering the times, the situa- tion is quite unusual Time was when sensations were perhaps more fre- quent than within recent years. when we have had more frequent opportun- itieS to hear the best in musical art, both vocal and instrumental But now we have a living representation of one such as we had supposed to belong to past generations.
 In the world of art it seems that every generation sends forth one with a message, coming with a divine au- thority and command. We read of the triumphs of those of past generations, such as the great Henrietta Sontag, Julia Grisi, Marie Malibrand, Jenny Lind, Adeline Patti, Christine Nelson, and we think of them as being greater than those of the present.
 Thus, taking into consideration times past and present, a star of such radiance and brilliancy as Galli-Curci is an epoch-making event Nothing like this has taken place in this coun- try since the advent of Jenny Lind and Adeline Patti, whom I heard in her prime, closely followed by Mel sen, Gerster Melba and Sembrich, though none. of the latter reached the sublime heights in all respects as did Patti"
 Sharing honors with Galli-Curci Thursday evening will be Rudolph Gang, the celebrated Swiss pianist, her marvellous flutist, Manuel Beren- guer and her accompanist, Homer Samuels.

LYRIC

Playgoers will have today only to see "Brewster's Millions as present ed by S. 2. Polls Players at the New Lyric theatre. This great comedy has attracted widespread attention from it's exceptional staging, versatile players, and the extraordinary amount of comedy that is infused in it's lines.
 On Monday the Poi Players will present "Mam'zelle," the snappiest of modern French farce comedies. This piece has all the pep and ginger, that is allowed by conyention, there are a number of light operatic numbers and specia1ties galore will divert from the usual run of stock production. Again an augmented and even larger cast than offered in "Brewster's Mill lions" will be required
