LIORA HOFFMAN, AMERICAN
SOPRANO AT TILE LYRIC

The concert stage has given vaude-
willie another prima donna who Will
be among the attractions at the Lyric
on the new bill today. She Is Llora
Hoffman, the American Soprano.
Miss Hoffman Is a little radical in her
musical ideas. She does not frown at
simple music and believes there is
more melody in one of the old songs
than In many Of the operate arias
She also believes that lyrics were writ
| TEN 10 be understood. therefore her
entire program Is sung in English,
and in her studies she has been par
ticularly careful of her enumeration
| Not only is Miss Hoffman an Amer
lean girl but her studies have been
entirely under American masters. or
course. she studied abroad, but in
Paris the making of her voice was en-
trusted to an American. It may be
interesting to note that one Of the
most successful vocal teachers in
Paris. lie Charles w. Clark. an Amer
lean, and while Americans 20 abroad
to study under foreigners. many Of
the prominent foreign artists have
chosen American teachers, Miss
Hoffman's fine voice seems conclusive
proof OF the soundness of this theory

The country has been given another example Of ap-
Piled anarchy in the attempts made to destroy both prop
erty and life by the explosion Of bombs. 0one OF, these
devilish devices was used to wreck the home of Attorney
General Palmer, the purpose undoubtedly being to kill
both him and his family. In this latter purpose the at
tempt failed. and it is gratifying to note that the bomber
himself was blown into very small pieces. The %unfortu-
nate feature OF the affair was that not enough of the man
was left together to reveal his identity with any certainty,
and thus to lead to the apprehension OF his confederates.
Mr.. Palmer had incurred the eamity Sof the anarchisuc
element by his activity in fcrreting out the facts with
reference to the sending of bombs through the mails q
few weeks earlier. lie declares that the only effect ot
the attempt on his life will be to stimulate him and his
assistants to still greater activity.
- So .
In connection with the winnipeg strike the most in
teressng and satisfactory development Of the week has
been the positive declaration of several thousand returned
soldiers that. they will stand by the constituted authoti-
ties in every effort which they make to maintain order
and promote the regular activities of the community.
These soldiers have denounced in scathing terms the ac-
tivities Of professional agitators, most Of them aliens, and
demand their deportation as soon as they can be appre-
hended. Two thousand Of these men. out of several
thousand who volunteered for the service, have been
sworn in as special constables for the protection of all
persons who wish to return to work. In the meantime,
the North Dakota Trades and Labor Assembly, in session
at Minot. sent a message of sympathy and congratulation
to the Winnipeg strikers, and took steps for the creation
of a new Tabor" party in North Dakota, to cooperate
with the Townley machine.

MAKING 1T SYMPATHETIC,

Telephone and telegraph operarots ut Atlanta, Geor-
STA, are engaged in . strike. What the strike is about,
nobody outside of a very limited circle has the faintest
idea. Probably the strikers have had something to say
as to their reasons for striking, and their employers as to
their reasons for not yielding to whatever demands have
been made. But there has been no investigation by any
impartial body, and there can be. consequently. no gem
eral knowledge q to what the merits Of the controversy
are. ~
The ban on general strikes being lifted By the return
of the wire lines to private .control.sit il proposed to ex-
tend the strike to all the lines in about 4 dozen southern
states. It is not alleged. that the operators in these states
have grievances Of their own. In the nature Of things
they are not adequately informed as to the Atlanta stu
alton, but, II the program 10 carried out, they will quit

COSTLY EDUCATION.

The railroad organizations realize that the
time is not propitious for success OF their
Plumb plan, Therefore they willing to lay
it aside for the present. but not to abandon it.
What the public needs, say the railroad men s
leaders, is education. If the government will
continue its railroad directorate two years
longer, the public will he educated to the idea
OF government control and thus be ready for the
enactment Of the Plumb plan The public al
ready has paid lot of money for education in
government control, and, as result of it's in
vestment has plainly determined that it does
not want government management or owner
slip of the roads. Why should two years more
of costly education produce opposite result
More likely it is that it would produce such a
condition in the railroads themselves that they
could not be easily restored to their owners

FRAUDULENT PROMOTIONS.

Hardly day passes that some persons in
Keokuk do not get caught by the smooth talk
OF q promoter who by oily words separates them
from their savings in exchange for q, worthless
interest in an industrial mine OF oil company
Ina recent issue of the Worlds Work magazine
there was informing article on fake oil COM
panies that is recommended to all who have
been solicited, whether they ''fell'' for the
propositions or not
In the purchase of Liberty bonds and Vic
tory bonds great many people learned for the
first time that they could save money. Many
thousands bought the bonds and paid for them
and have them in their possession. After they
purchased these unequaled securities they were
called upon by some smooth operator who lured
away from them the bonds by prospects of
dividends of twice and more what the govern
nent paper will pay. In few weeks or months
they wake up to find that they have been bun.
coed out of their money and the savings of a
lifetime are gone.
The country is full of these fake promoters
who are taking advantage of the people s thrift
and warning has gone out from the federal
treasury department and the banks against
listening to the fairy tales of the Get-Rich Wal
lngfords who are infesting the country. In
some Of the large cities investigating bureaus
have been established in shops and factories
and all employees notified that they may submit
to these bureaus any proposition made to them
