to the dictates of the western democ-
racies. This is in the same method
that America and the allies intend to
use against Germany. If employed
against Russia it might unite Russia
and Germany against the western
powers, as the result of common
grievances. This would be a calamity
and a danger to the world.
Immediate inquiry.
by Lowell Mellett, United Press
Staff Correspondent
PARIS, Jan. 13.-Immediate official
inquiry by the allies into the actual
state of affairs in Russia was pre-
dicted in certain official circles to-
day. 1t was limited that such action
was discussed at yesterdays meeting
of the associated representatives.
British influence was understood to
be back of the idea for a searching
investigation of the Russian problem.
Such an investigation would be con-
Quoted by an allied commissioner and
would be pushed as rapidly as pos
sible. This commission would report
back directly to the peace conference.
The plan had materialized to a
point where possible members of the
American continent were being dis
cussed. William Howard Taft and
Elihu Root Were among the names
mentioned. 1t was impossible to learn
what men were being considered for
British membership on the commits
sion.

"Rlind Youth opened a weeks en- 2agement at the INCeum thcutcr this afternoon before an audience that cNi- dcntlN was well pleased with both the play aud the character study offered by CInudr Kim ball. the new leading man, in the stellar role ori2innllN played by Lou Tcllegcn. Blind Youth tells of the love affair of a NOunG artist in the Latin quarter and beautiful adventures. whose love he believes is his inspiration in life. She proves untrue to him, however, leaving him to drink his life into degradation. The unfortunate man comes to America where he meets d good hearted American girl who brings his soul back from hell as it were and aids him in snatchine from the clutches of the adventures who ruined his own life his half brother. The play is written in the comedy Vcin but the dramatic moments are many and often. They come like d bOmbshell and hold the audience in breathlcsS suspense
 The entire production has been staged by Mir. Mason with a fidelity to accuracy in detail and this of course adds greatly to the general
  play will be shown nightly for the rest of the week, and on Wednesday, Thursday and Saturday, matinees.
 It will be noticed that the Lyceum Players have been giving the city the very best releases in plays for stock and for that reason the house is crowded at all performances.

The box office is open daily from 10 a. m. to D.
 Due to the extreme popularity of Claude Kimball, the new leading man, and in order to properly. introduce him to the public a reception will be held in his honor on the stage of the Lyceum theatcr imm ediately after the performance Wednesday, afternoon. All who can should avail them selves of the opportunity of meeting person. ally the new leading man.

 At Home.

JN''N a little crossroad leading to a main thoroughfare passing directly through Marvin. If you don't mind speeding a little, you will be home inside or ten minutes.
 "I don't .mind-anythinS, fal- tered, Eff I can only get home.'

 The high-powered car responded to the officers guiding as if it had been a sentient thing, rushed along the road with a swiftness and smoothness that were reminiscent of the time I had ridden in it before. The rush of air. however, seemed to suffocate me- and by the time we reached my own driveway I was coughing violently, while my head felt as if it were en- closed in a wise which someone was slowly tightening.
 Major Grantland drove carefully up to the veranda steps, was out of the car and opening the door at my side almost before he had stopped it.
 You must let me lift you out and carry you in," he said firmly, scrutin- izing my face If you attempt to walk I am afraid you may fall.''
 Before I could answer, Katie came running down the steps, her eyes fairly popping out of her head with excitement
 "Oh. Missis Graham, dear Missis Ora ham! Vots matter?" she walled historically. "Is Meester Graham killed dot you so vite?''
 Major Grantland turned on her sternly.

 They were the, last words l heard for as Katie came toward me I saw her grow to an enormous size before my eyes. and the next moment I had swayed. forward, felt myself falling, and knew nothing more.

AT THE PALACE.

The story of the overwhelming love of a misguided girl for all humanity is told in words of dramatic emphasis in The Right to Happiness a new cight-reel feature production, which opened an engagement today at the Palace theater.
 Dorothy Phillips has achieved dra- .matic heights never heretofore at tained in her splendid depletion of q difficult dual role. She handles two characters as far apart in their na- ture as the poles themselves. She is seen as Sonia. the little comradc of the Russian radicals, a dynamite, tur- bulent agitator. and again as Vivian, the American girl, who has been reared in the idleness of luxury and who finds pseudo happiness in grati- flying her bauble whims and in toying with a mollycoddle lover.
 The production affords numerous opportunities for spectacular effects of which full advantage has been taken by the director. Among them may be named the brutal posrom of the Russian Cossa cl<s of old St Petersburg of nineteen years ago against the Jewish population, which caused the separation in babyhood of two American twin girls.
 One of the girls is adopted by a Russian family and is reared in radi- calsm. The other daughter is taken to America with her father and reared as the only child of an Amer ican money-lord. The Russian girl is sent to America as an envoy of the Russian anarchists. After a turbulent career she finally leads a crazed mob

against the palatiaI home of her own father. lIolubar has evolved d climax of tremendously dramatic nature in his production.
 The "light to Happiness" will con- tinuc at the Palace theater until Thursday.

New York, Nov. 11.--This youth fully attractive afternoon frock is of midnight blue kittens ear crepe. The full, apron-lil>e overslirt is ef- fectiVely hand-feather stitched in black. The short overblouse is belted in at the waist with a string Srdle of the crepe and is smartly finished with two miniature pockets set well in front of the hips.
 Various chemiSetteS and SleeVetteS may be worn with this dress, but the were of sand Georgette embroidered in midnight blue polka dots about the size of a dime. The fetching little knot of ribbon at the left of the throat was of gold brocaded black velvet
 This dress could easily be devel- oped at home, and would be partlc- ularly lovely in one of those rich new shades of brown kittens ear com bined with the same shade Of Georgette embroidered in dull gold.
 The hat worn with the, original model was a wonderful thing of black pannes velvet lined with coral and trimmed with narrow Dand and bow of groserain ribbon. Ordinarily should have matched the. -sAnd-col- ored iGeorgette of the dress cOm-' bination, but the coral gave just the right touch of brilliancy demanded in all really chic costumes this season..

A. R. F. CONCERT IS
 LARGELY ATTENDED
Grand Opera Company Stars
 Offer Pleasing Program

One of the most classical bits of opera offered here this season was rendered yesterday afternoon at the l1Nccum thcater by several prominent stars of the Metropolitan Opera com- pany of New York. The concert was given under the auspices of the Ar menian relief fund committee of Hart ford, Bristol and New Britain for the benefit of the war orphans of Ar mcnia
 Among the Metropolitan stars pres cnt were Mme. Zabelle Panosian, the prominent Armenian soprano; X. Cha hah-Mouradian, an Armenian tenor from the Grand Opera company of Paris, and Henry G. Schnuffler. a eel lolst from the New York Grand Opera company.
 The theater was filed to it's capacity and those present were unusually gen erous with applause, causing the stars to return to the stage several times after offering a selection. The pro- gram of the afternoon was opened by A. Chah- Mouradian, the eminent ten or, who sang the selection Himi Elk Lerenk taken from Komitas Warda- pet.
 CcIlOiSt PIcascS Audience.
 Henry G. Schauffler, a prominent New York celloist and considered an eminent artist in the musical world, pleased the audience greatly when he offered Andante A Minor by Golter- mann and La Cinuuantaine by Maris, At the conclusion of the first selection the audience applauded so much that the celloiSt had to return and add an encore. In the second part of the pro- gram MT. Schauffler played The Swan and Romance by Saint Saens During his playing he held his audience spell bound.
 Mime. PanOSian AppIauded.
 The feature of the afternoons pro- Panosian, the prominent Armenian so- prano. In singing Caro- Nome from RigOlettO, composed by the world S eminent composer and artist, Verdi, Miss PanoSian showed some of her best ability in classical opera singing She was ShOWered with bououetS of flowers from the audience after con- cluding her first selection. Miss Pano- sian also pleased when she offered duet, Al Ayloushe, accompanied by Cha ah- M ouradiap, The selection Lucia Di I-ammermOora was undoubtedly the best offering of the. afternoon: Miss Panosian carried the soprano part, ac-, companied by E. ". Meyer, who played the flute obligato.

FOX'S THE.ATER.

Gladys Brockwcll, the star in the latest William Fox production, "Chas- ing Rainbows," playing at Fox's thea ter for the first three days of this week, comes back after a long ab- sence in Western drama, Miss Brockwell appears at her best in a production set in the Western noun tains or on the unfenced plains. "Chasing Rainbows" is such a picture with all the coloring of the early days of the gold rushes to the Nevada gold fields, when the life of man or woman depended on the rapidity with which his or her hand could move a gun. But there is much that is quiet and unassuming in the picture and that is the delicate working out of a beautiful love story. Sadie, (Gladys BrockWelD, is a waitress in a railroad restaurant, always smiling, always trustful, always kind, and perhaps it was these virtues that shadowed the real worth of a drum mer named Lacy, who she thought was to be her own shortly. But the marriage day never arrived and in stead of a honeymoon trip she was going away and alone. Lacy had a wife and child. Sadie came to the West, so they said, but with her she brought rays of smiles that went out to the crude miners and won their hearts. Sometimes the smile or her kind word failed to work and when it did Sadie used "gat" with remarkable eXpertnesS Then love came out of wild gold rush, an at tempted murder and escape. There are many more good reels on the

bill as well as four big acts of up-to- the-minute vaudeville with the Five .tvallons, a troup Of celebrated and daring wire performers, heading the bill.
