SOPHIE BRASLAU
COMES T0IM0sC0W
NOTED SINGER TO DELIGHT
MOSCOW AUDIENCE FRIDAY
EVENING, FEBRUARY 20

| Moscow music lovers will have a
rare treat on Friday night, February
20, when Miss Sophie Braslau, one of
the most noted singers of the present
day, will appear in a selected pro-
gram of great merit. This is the sec
ond of the three numbers the Univer-
sity of Idaho has secured for its pro-
gram and will be one of the best.
Those holding season tickets for the
three entertainments should remem-
Der the date. Tickets will be on sale
at Sherfey's book store next Monday.
Of Miss Braslau the Spokesman-Re-
view dramatic writer says:
"The Spokane Symphony society
will bring Miss Sophia Braslau, the
greatest contralto of the day, to the
Auditorium theatre on Monday eve
ming, February %. This splendid
young singer has, in few seasons,
attained the position of supreme
star, partly by the lavish gifts of
nature, partly by her exercise of this
bountiful fortune. No voice like hers
has been heard for a long time, as
contralto voices are among the rarest
of products.
"Critics and audiences alike have
listened spellbound to the magnificent
tones of this volumnious and bewitch-
ing organ For the last five seasons
she has been a bright particular star
with the New York Metropolitan
forces and has also been engaged by
the Chicago Opera company to fill
prominent role during a forthcoming
tour. She is eagerly sought after by
all the symphony societies and her
concert tours have been phenome-
nally successful.
''The hearts of her audiences belong
to the singer from the first note to
the last under the impetus of her
splendid voice and to her magnetic
personality no listener could remain
Her present tour embraces
more than so first-class cities"

FRENCH'S SPEECH
MAKES GREAT HIT
IDAHO'S ABLE REPRESENTA-
TIVE REGARDED AS AUTH
GRITTY ON BOLSHEVISM

| WASHINGTON, D., C.-The speech
of Representative Burton L. Frennch
on December 9th last. in the House of
Representatives on the Analysis of
the Russian Soviet Constitution has
proven more than an address to the
Members of the house or even a
speech to the people of Idaho.
Many thousands of copies of it have
been printed by other members of
the house and senate at a cost to
them of $8.72 per thousand for dis
tribution in their respective states.
In addition to this, the National
Republican, which has a circulation
of approximately 100000 copies per
issue, has published practically the
entire speech as one of it's special
features, and now comes The Nations
Business, magazine of national cir
culation, and proposes to feature the
address in it's March number.
In addition to it's tribute to the
opportuness of the address, The Ma
tion's Business proposes to make
reprine 250,0O0 copies of the speech
for distribution through the COM
mercial clubs and similar groups
throughout the United States.

ing maps of Centralia he had drawn,
and pointed out approximate loca-
tions where bullets landed and the di-
rection they had been fired from.
Cross examination by the defense
was brief, an attempt being made to
show possible error, but Dohm tes-
titled that his calcultions were as
nearly correct as could be.
Sidney B. Gallagher, city engineer
OF Centralla, owner of building at
Tower avenue and Second street,
where several bullets struck, testified
as to the bullet holes being recent,
when he saw them on the afternoon
Of the shooting. He told of inserting
q pencil in one of the bullet holes,
placing level upon it and running
! string in the direction in which
the outer end of the pencil pointed,
saying that the other end of the
string ran directly to the second
story of the Avalon hotel from
which place the state alleges the
shots came.

SUNDAY SERVICES
At ST. MARK CHURCH
SICKNESS KEPT MANY AWAY
BUT THERE WERE GOOD
SERVICES

In spite of many members being
! away through sickness a very fair
congregation was in attendance. Mr..
Bridge spoke of the "Formality OF
the Episcopal church" He said that
there was an eternal antagonism be-
tween life and form and yet life was
always expressed and communicated
through form. This necessary an
! tagonism lay at the basis of such
different attitudes as those of the
radical, who believed in the freedom
of life and scorned it's forms, and the
conservative who believed in the
preservation of the forms in which
life was revealed. The difference be-
tween the prophet and the priest, be-
tween the futurist and the historian
was determined by the relative valu-
alton each placed upon the life and
form. The Episcopal church believed
in life, in the continual inspiration
of the spirit of God, carrying on and
developing the revelation of truth
unfold. But such truth must be ex-
pressed in organic forms just as the
sublime truth conveyed by Beet
hoven sonata, or a Shakespeare play
was conveyed through musical or
dramatic form built up in conformi
ty with definite laws of music and
drama. This was the philosophy of
the worship-forms of the church.
3The service we have rendered this
morning has been an effort to pre-
pare our minds and spirits for the in
flowing Of the divine life. 1t was
not an accidental conglomeration of
prayers and psalms, but carefully
ordered whole, psychologically justi-
fable at each point" Mr.. Bridge
then sketched the order of the serv-
ice and showed how each act, con-
fession, absolution, petition, praise,
had definite purpose and relation.
In speaking of the old testament les
son he said "We receive the old
testament as the literature Of a
people fiercely striving to find God.
What they thought of God was often
hideously wrong; the whole collec-
ton, containing literary types of
utmost variety was unified by this
one idea. But the collection was full
of error and inconsistency, full of
the ideas of primitive people; to at
tribute these ideas, those often saw
age moral codes, to God, and to i'm
agine the whole collection as in some
way the infallible word
of God was to caricture the whole |,
literature and to set people to the
worship of God as unlike the Father
Of Jesus Christ as could be imagin-
ed. When we sweep away our super |
stitions we shall discover our Bible"

DEFENDANTS ADMIT
OWNERSHIP OF GUNS
I. w. w. ON TRIAL AT MONTE

CENTRALIA WERE THEIRS

MONTESANO.-(By A. P.)-Stip
ulations admitting the ownership by
six of the II defendants of firearms
taken after the Centralia shooting
on armistice day were read into the
record at the trial today of alleged
Industrial Workers of the World
charged with murder.
A. c.. Hughes, chief of police OF
'Centralia, resumed the stand for
cross examination and told of receiv-
ing the prisoners at the city Jail and
identified the guns taken from them.
Show Model of Centralia.
MONTESANO, Monday Night-(By
A. P.)-Nearly three blocks of build
ings of the city of Centralia, scene
of the Armistice day shootings in
which Warren o. Grimm was killed
and for which eleven alleged |. W. w.
defendants are now on trial, was ex-
hibited in miniture at the trial of
the eleven defendants today. The Ill
liputaian exhibition shows two full
blocks of .Centralia, including every
structure that may later on become
factor in the guilt or innocence of
the defendants.
N. Welter, cabinetmaker of Cen
tralia, is responsible for the exhibit.
All of the buildings, both front and
rear, are exact replicas Of the big
structures that line Centralias' main
business thoroughfare. Each is faced
with photograph of the original
building reproduced on a scale to fit
a map of that section of the city, and
to fit the miniature buildings.
The states exhibit of the scene of
the shooting attracted almost as
much attention as did the exhibit of
six rifles and five pistols and revolv-
ers, alleged by the prosecution to be
the weapons used by the defendants.
Sheriff John Berry of Lewis county
identified the weapons as they were
introduced. After more than an hour
spent in introducing evidence tending
to prove ownership Of the guns, de-
fense counsel stipulated to admit the
states contention of ownership of all
with the exception of a 1885 rifle,
which the state alleges was owned
by Eugene Barnett, and which rifle, it
is claimed, was fired by Barnett and
killed Grimm
Attorney Vanderveer attempted to
work the automatic rifle, but without
success, until advised by Barnett how
to release the catch. 1t was the first
time any of the defendants has spok- !
en- aloud in court. A. C. Hughes of the
police Of Centralia, also was called to
identify the weapons. Efforts to
trace the sale of the 1885 rifle have
not been completed the testimony in
dicated.
All witnesses were ordered exclud-
ed from the court room late today by
Judge John M. Wilson.
