Around the arena we are having a
parking place for cars built. They
will be able to handle 10000 automo-
biles, and there won't be a bit of
trouble. On the day of the bout Iraf-
nc will be allowed TO 90 only one
way. That is, streets leading to the
arena will be open for traffic; then
the cars go around the arena and
back on another street When they
park cars they come in one gate and
out another.
Dempsey and Willard are both in
sured for $4,000 apiece. The pro-
motors of the big show are taking no
chances and have had the boys in

Special Trains Coming.
Up to date twenty-one special trains
have been made up for the trip to To-
ledo. They are coming from all parts
OF the country. Joe MulvihilI. the
Danbury halter. is here representing
a string of Connecticut papers. Joe
had on a new set of scenery yester-
day. John OReilly, of Thirty-sixth
street, New York, is also here. John
packs his roll in his hat. He says
those little playmates around here are
too nifty with their dukes. He's TAX
ing no chances.
Dempsey and his hemstitched glim
are still resting up. Jack kearns
hopes to be able to have Jack boxing
by Monday, but the chances are rather
slim. The cash over his eye is over
three inches long and right through
the eyebrow. II would be unfOrtu-
nate, indeed, to have il break open
during the big bout, as the blood
would trickle right down into his eye
and bother his vision.

The Mother of the Gold Star.
Their, country needed them, they heard
the call, !.
And answered, sitting thoughts OF
human awe,
Knowing full well that many man
would fall
Victims to the disastrous curse of war
Now war is over, now, when victory's
won;
There's many mother weeping for
her son.
The love of mother country led them
out
To battle in that record breaking fray
The justice of the cause removed
their doubt
And added to their courage day by
day.
The news of armistice which brought
US joy,
Found many a mother weeping for
her boy.
With bleeding heart she bid that lad
God-speed,
When he departed for the other side.
She loved that boy, she knew her
country's need.
She sent him forth, with all a mo-
theirs pride,
That sacrifice supreme that knew no
bounds
Has given foreign lands some Holy
Ground.
While we rejoice Ger victories
achieved;
And give our boys returning all due
praise;
Let's bow our heads awhile with
those who grieve
And in a prayer to Heaven our voices
raise
And for those who fought and fell,
whose race is run,
And fer that mother weeping for her
son. c. II. Stephen.

lot" Sunday afternoon and evening

RESPONSIBILITY FOR FIRES.

The city of Portland, Ore, has a
new ordinance that makes it unlawful
for anyone to maintain on his prem
Uses conditions that constitute a fire
hazard. The bureau of fires in
vestigates such hazards and if it de-
cides that a given condition is dan
gerous, it notifies the one responsible
to remove it.
If the notified party does not re-
move it, he becomes responsible. He
can then be sued by the municipality
for the cost of putting out any fire of
which conditions maintained by him
could be considered a cause.
Fearing possible suit, the people Of
that city are clearing up hazardous
conditions. This is a good scheme
to try in any place where business
men and others are careless. There
is a tendency to maintain heaps of
light packing boxes, excelsior and
similar material, in Easements and
back yards. These create terrible
conditions if fire starts.

Musical Topics
Edited by Mrs. X. L. Skahen

English woman, has written operas al
most under our noses, and we heard
one Of them at the Metropolitan in
1908. Miss Cahminade and Mrs. Lii
"a Lehman produced some of their
music in our concert rooms not long
before the war, but the French wo-
mans pretty pianoforte pieces and
songs and the English woman's setting
of ain a Persian Garden" are not to
be considered, since they are not in
the class of this composition by Mile
Boulanger. However, we have heard
fine things said of symphony by
Cornelie van Oostersee, a Dutch wo-
man, born in Java, and of operas and
songs and things by Ingeborg Starck
Won Bronsart, whose career was truly
cosmopolitan, since she married a
German and composed a march for
the official celebration of the return
of the victorious troops to Berlin in
1871. In this she was luckier than
Wagner, whose "Kaisermarsch," de-
signed for such an occasion was turn
ed down.
But why attempt roll call Of wo-
men composers? 1t numbers hun
dreds, and as we do not know their
music any better than we do that of
hundreds of their male contempor-
aries who got their names into the
books we can only imagine that some
Of it may have equalled the compost
tions of the ill-starred young French
woman, who has so dogmatically been
proclaimed the superior of them all.
"For the Burial of Soldier" would
have sounded mere impressive and
challenged greater admiration if III
had not come after Wolf Ferarri's de-
scription of the death of Dante's Bea-
trice. There are not many works in
the current list which could endure
such juxtaposition. Mile. Bou-
langer's piece is a profoundly solemn
dirge, poignant with modern disson-
ant harmonies, dignified in melody, eff
fective in the employment of such de-
vices as both choral and instrumental
voices moving in octaves, but not re-
markable in invention and not so orig
inal in inspiration as to awaken
amaZement or convince a sober mind
ed listener that her genius was great
er than that of all her predecessors.
But her music should be heard under
more favorable conditions.

The Relative Greatness of Women
COmDOSerS

Were we inclined to think lightly OF
official announcements by publicity
agents and concert givers we should
have come to the hearing Of this new
French composition with awe, for we
were told few weeks ago that by the
dictum of the musical world of Paris
and Mr.. Damrosch Madamoiselle
Boulanger was the greatest woman
composer the world has yet prcduc-
ed" After that, who would dare
approach the music with critical in
tent? 1t would be like LAYING pro-
fame hands upon the Ark Of the Cove
nant. But news print paper is pat
lent, printers ink is still cheap enough
to be copiously used, and, after all
we dc not believe that the musical
world of Paris and Mr.. Damrosch are
in possession of the data necessary
to prove their contention. Women
have been composing music a long
time, longer than the memory of the
present generation runs and much of
it which may have been very good in
deed has gone into oblivion in COM
pany with the works of masterful
men. Why, bless us A woman
with the just now singularly appro-
pirate name Of De La Guerre COM
posed an opera more than 225 years
ago. Since her day women have writ
ten into the record at least 200 works
in the large dramatic and epic forms.
They produced an average of one
opera year in the last quarter of the
10Th century and we cannot even
imagine how many orchestral and
chamber compositions besides. Vic
tor Hugo turned his story of "Notre
Dame de Paris" into an opera book
for Mile. Louise Berth, and though
the French historians of opera tell us
thai the lady's "Esmeralda" "tomba
immediatement," two other operas,
one Of them on the subject of "Guy
Mannering,r had a measure of sue
cess.
Nine. Sebault, who flourished less
than rs years ago, produced dozen
or Is operas, and a royal dame, Amalia
Princess of SAKE quite as many. In
our day Augusta Holmes wrote an
opera, "Hero ct Leandre", and a SYM
phony, "Lutece," and, not content
with celebrating Paris in this work,
she glorified Ireland and Poland as
well in two other symphonic creations.
There were only few Of the compost
tons in large forms written by this
Irish Gaulish woman, whom Caesar
Franck did not hesitate to own as a
pupil. Women of all nations have
composed serious works. Our own
Mrs. Beach's "Gaelic" symphony has
been heard here at concert Of the
Boston orchestra. Ethyl Smyth, an
