which, if it is successfully carried out,
will result In the most imposing family
reunion since Noah filled the Ark and
cleared for Mt. Ararat. Throughout
the country. the 10000 daughters Of
Smith College are poring over tcle-
phone books, city directories, social

'Cleopatra's Night
Scores Its Second
Big Triumph Here
Mime. Aida and Mr.. Gordon
Are in Excellent Voice:
Dances of Miss Calli Are
a Feature Of the Opera

"Cleopatras Night was sung for the
second time last night at the Metro
politan Opera House. Of the music, the
libretto and the singers, nothing new
can be said. Nine. Aida and Mr.. Cor
don were both in excellent voice, and
once more Mr.. Harrolds extraordi-
nary clarity Of enunciation proved that
English, and even such English as
Miss Pollock's, can be sung and under
stood. The dances of Miss CALI in the
second act are also pleasing features
Of the opera.
Miss CALI shows imagination in their
ecution. Mr.. Hadley, in the "Danse
Grecque' and "Danse BacchiQue," has
written perhaps the best music of the
opera. and Miss CALI has proved an
extraordinarily sympathetic exponent
Of it,
But it tis the scenic investiture Of
Norman-Bel Geddes which is the high
water mark of the opera. 1t is imagi-
native, poetic and informed with an
extraordinary richness OF atmosphere.
When we think of the. pompous empti-
ness of the aida" and Of the other
creations of the Milan school Of scenic
artists which once were considered the
last word IN scene painting. We realize
how far we have travelled in the twelve
years of Mr.. Gatti-Casazza's rule at
the Metropolitan. The Italians may
still write our operas. but deus volens
the young Americans will in the future
paint their scenery.
In his setting for "Cleopatra's Night"
Mr.. Geddes has proved himself at least
the equal of Mr.. Urban and MI
Pogany
Following the Hadley opera, lie Coo
dor" was given under the baton of
Giuseppe Bamboschek Mr.. Bamboschell k
conducted with an admirable sense of
rhythm. The cast was as usual, except
that Nine. Mabel Scotney sang the
music of the Princess, and sang it ad-

John Aubert created pleasant mn

fingers. but his playing is interesting
and authoritative. His performance OF

ZANZIBAR HARBOR
BEING IMPROVED
Biggest Ships Can Enter Great
Port on East Coast Of
Africa.

Work has commenced on the extern
sive Improvement to Zanzibar Harbor,
which is considered the finest natural
harbor on the east coast Of Africa, both
on account of the approaches and depth
of water. Ships of any size can enter
the harbor either day or night
Up to the present the landing of pas
sengers and cargo at Zanzibar has been
carried on by means of lighters from
the ships In the harbor to the shore. Much
damage from water has been caused to
cargo during transportation and the i'm
provements, which will allow the ships
to be berthed alongside of the new piers.
will be appreciated by owners. i'm
porters and exporters. as well as the
travelling public. The original ex-
penditure was estimated at f250.O00
(s1.216,625), but 1t Is thought that on
account of the enormous increase in the
price of all materials the cost will be
greater.
The proposed works include reclama-
ton from the sea of some twenty acres
on the Malindi Spit, close by the town
of Zanzibar. There will be reinforced
concrete wharf, 1900 feet in length, with
a minimum depth of thirty feet alongside
at low tide. The average tide In Zanzi-
bar is fifteen feet Retaining mounds
will be built of rubble, and by means OF
a suction dredge sand will be pumped
over them 1t is intended to have all
the latest modern appliances such as
electric cranes and railroad facilities
on the new wharves. Provision will be
made for the storage of bunker coal
and fuel oil. On the reclaimed area will
be erected the new customs offices, go
downs, warehouses and transit ware
houses These improvements. which are
expected to be completed within three
years, are regarded as likely to attract
MANY more ships to the island of Zanzi-
bar.
Another Improvement in Zanzibar
which is talked of but which has We;
not taken definite form is narrow
gauge electric railway to run the whole
length of the island, with branch lines

Practically every British make of auto

JAPAN ADMINISTERS
SOUTH SEA ISLANDS
Navy in Indirect Control Of
Territory Recently Acquired
From Germany.

TOXIC, Oct ga Governor and a
planned for the South Sea Islands, ac-
quired by Japan from Germany during
the world war, according to a high Gov
eminent official
The Governor of the Islands, it is stated,
at present will remain under the direc-
ton OF the navy, which has been in con-
troll of the islands since their acquisition
five years ago. 1t was stated that ii is
more than likely that later all connec-
ton between the navy and the islands
would be severed.
There are seven hundred islands of
varying size in the group. The League
of Nations Council in November Is ex-
pected to work out detailed scheme for
the application of the principle of trus-
teeship by which Japan retains her con
troll.
The idea involved in enlarging the
scope of civil administration of the
islands is TO establish three distinct ad-
ministrative sections of domestic af-
fairs, colonial affairs and police affairs.
With a central gubernatorial established
somewhere in the islands, several
branches will be put on convenient ISL
ands and the executive, industrial and
educational facilities will be arranged
and perfected so as to advance the well
fare OF the islanders.
Government authorities are now inves-
tigating plans which are promised to
he completed during the present year
when the Governor and heads OF ad-
ministrative sections will be appointed
Establishment of courts. prisons. police
stations, hospitals. schools, Industrial
experiment stations. weather observa-
tories and similar institutions is def
nitely promised in due time. AS for
means OF communication, whether II
will be turned over to the Department
of Communications or not has not yet
been decided. When the plans are COM
peted it is thought the number of off,
Gals will be trebled to 300 to 400.
