automobile driven by Donald Shell
son. OF Oelwein. Her skull was
crushed and she received minor in
juries. She was taken to the city hos
pitai where her condition was pro-
nounced most critical. She is the
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Sherman

vein. 1t is reported that Shelson was
attempting to pass another car when
the accident occurred.
Burlington Herman Rucken-
brod, age 35 years, manager of the
Hawkeye Boiler Repair shop, was
badly scalded while working in 4
boiler at the Burlington hospital
Friday. There is a battery of two
boilers here, In one Of which Ruck-
enbrod was working. The other boiler
had a bead Of live steam. A blow-otf
pipe connects both boilers. and it is
said the engineer opened this valve,
the dead boiler. Ruckenbrod's legs
and back are more severely scalded
than any other part of his body, and
reports from the hospital Friday at
ternoon at 3 o'clock were to the effect
that everything possible was being

ing her daughter. Lillian Trousdale,
1S-yearold Davenport stenographer,
who mysteriously disappeared from
her home. with strange man Aug. %,
has resulted in nothing. Mrs. Trous-
dale Tuesday journeyed to Galesburg,
Ill.,. where, according to clairvoy-
ant, the girl had been married. But
yesterday, Mrs. Trousdale returned
to Davenport without having learned
anything Of her daughters where
abouts. The clairvoyant had not told
the truth because the marriage
license records at Galesburg failed
to show that she had received a
license at that place. This was adj
mitted by Mrs. Trousdale who de-
clared that she had received no news
from her daughter since she disapS
peared and that she had no idea
what became Of her.
Observation-Disclosures county officials
are securing the county in an effort
to apprehend man who committed
a criminal assault on Mrs. Leo Hoff-
man, at her farm home, three miles

ing at 9:15 o'clock while her hus-
band and brother were at DyersvNe
with load of wood. The identity Of

heavy cream colored automobile
veil, which covered his head and was

being about five feet, seven inches,

mistaken. To those who know their his
tory, the wearing Of those masks meant
the brushing away of very deep mist
IN one corner of their memories and the
bringing to life of all the fine senti-
ment and meaning of the portrayal OF
characters in the dance that died with
the original members of the classic casts
that produced the great tragedies Of
centuries ago
Does it not seem entirely plausible
that dance of an Oriental girl loses
some of its appeal if we are to look
upon the face of pretty American
maiden upon our stage, wearing the
Oriental costume, dancing to Oriental
music, yet with her face indicating
clearly that she is not an Oriental at
all. but probably was born and reared
in Peoria, III? And if she should don
the mask of an Oriental one done in
artistic fashion, does it not go without
saying that her dance will be enhanced
and will mean more? This is the ques-
ton Mr.. Benda asked when he designed
the masks. He did not make them for
the use of "The Greenwich Village
Follics" dancer, however. For the last
three years He has been making masks
of different ages and characters and
ideas and types. In his studio st
Gramercy Park, he has at least twenty
81 them, faces of old Chinese villains,

done In red and white and yellow
streaks, faces of pretty Indian girls,
with black braids, faces of grotesque
old white faced fellows, lined with age
There are all kinds, all shapes. some of
them huge affairs, protruding behind in
Roman helmet style, some closely fitted
little affairs, yet each one of them true
to the human expression, each almost
Photographic and so accurate in it's
execution that when one slips it over
his head and peers into the mirror he
almost gasps with sheer astonishment
that the mask really does carry so
much of the spirit and personality
which was meant to go with it.
This is the artistic touch given to the
masks by Mr.. Benda. He makes these
masks the same as he would draw the
picture Of pretty girl. If he is to
make mask of an American girl, he
has an American girl to pose for him.
First, he sketches it on fat, white paper,
then cuts it out with shears, marks it
so that he can twist and turn its edges

Vogue of the Chinese
Drama Continues i'm
sSLady of the Lamp

~ HE vogue Of Chinese drama is un-
VI diminished, judging by the first
two weeks of THE Lady Of the
Lamp" at the Republic Theater. For
two seasons past we have welcomed q
succession of adorable Chinese ladies.
There was Ming Toy in EAST Is
West" Lien Wah in "The Son-Daugh-
ter" and Tea Flower in "His Chinese
Wife" And now T'ien Tao in Earl
CarrolPs play comes, undisparaged by
the caravan Of princesses that pre-
coded her.
If "The Lady of the Lamp" were a
vase you would gloat on the glaze and
the mark and declaim on its blues I'M
Clipped through the centuries since
they first rang its chimes and painted
its figures and hues. To the same in
tent and purpose did two men exc!aim
on the opening night of the play:
And was there a Chinese princess
slain in her cabinet by the Manchu
emperor" Man alive." said the
other, "haven't you read your his
tory?"
Yet there is no historical basis for
the story, although it does make eli
mactc use of the Chinese invention Of
gunpowder as an expedient to dlscom-
fit the enemies Of the Princess T'ien

is some such whimsey as might be
spun in an opium wrought fancy, en-
tering and peopling the palaces and pa
godas pictured on old china.
THE story of the play is entirely

written in less than six weeks. The
turn of the plot in the third act came
as a tremendous surprise to me while

Emperor of the Manchus would make
dramatic entrance until it was re-
vealed to me with the same wonder
that strikes the audience as the truth
is unfolded there in the imperial gar
den of Changtu."

wants it, he paints it with oil in nat
ural colors, and when it is inished, it
looks more like the living fac, than the
scraps of white cardboard it really is.
That is why Miss Severn was so at
tracted by the masks when John Murray
Anderson, who is staging the Folies
for The Bohemians, Inc, took her to Mr.
Benda's studio not so long ago and asked
her if she would not like to use several
of them in her interpretations.
She wears a mask of a "silly GIRL"
as Mr.. Benda calls it, for one of her
dances; another of peacock girl" with
headpiece of peacock feathers, painted
in oil; another of a simple ''grotesque"
and q fourth of an Arabian girl.
