FRIEDA HENPEL, Famous Edison 4yti1 VIII Make
JENNY LIND Live Again for New Yorks Music Lovers

ERIEDA HEMPEL, Edison artist and
- Grand Opera Star, has been chosen to
impersonate Jenny Lind in the Centennial
Concert to be given in Carnegie Hail. Octo-
Der 9th. This great honor has come to
Miss Hempel because she is the only living
soprano whose voice approximates the pure
limpid quality of Jenny Lind's superb voice.
Arthur Middleton, another great Edison
artist, has been selected for the part of Signor
Belletti, who assisted Jenny Lind at her first
concert in America at Castle Garden, seventy
years ago.
The coming Historical Concert, to COM
mcmorate the one-hundredth anniversary
of Jenny Lind's birth, will be an exact replica
OF the first concert Duplicates of the same
costumes will be worn. the same program
will be given, the ushers and orchestra will
dress as their predecessors did. Miss Hem
pei will sing the same old arias and plav
her own accompanments on the same piano

JAPS MENACE
PHILIPPINES
FROM THE AIR

WASHINGTON. Sept. 2l.-Japan
is converting every available plain on
the island OF Formosa into an avia>
ton field. Furthermore, she IL using
these fields for the development of
aircraft armed with possibly the
most destructive explosive known to
science.
This information has been secured
In official circles here.
Formosa is within a short steam
ing radius OF the Philippines. and ID
even nearer to China. II was taken
as part of the indemnity following
the last Chinese-Iapanese war.
Naval officials said today that the
activities on Formosa explain the
heretofore mysterious fact that Jap
an was appropriating only a com
paratvely small amount for the con-
struction OF first-class battleships.
They also point out that Japan's
course parallels that Of Great Brit
ain. The fact that Great Britain had
dropped her big shipbuilding and was
developing aircraft instead. was first
pointed out by Admiral Benson In ad-
vices to the navy department from
Europe.
One navy official. who. for obvious
reasons. would not permit his name
to be used. had this to say:

that Japan has made 1t a first class
military station. and when we made
some inquiries some years ago we
were told that Japan was deter

which the island was infested. That
army, however, after ten years has
been increased and the available
level stretches OF the southern part
OF the island turned into aviation

explosive is OF greater destructive
power than the celebrated "shi-

the world soon after the Spanish
