letter notifying him of the secre-
taTy's decision. The baths were
popular because the ~ is the only
bathing establishment in the town
except the facilities at the hotels
and in private dwellings.

Young Barytone Gives
AeOIian Hall Recital
Myron Rodney Shows Under
standing of Various Styles
and COmDOsers

Many possibilities were disclosed in
the singing of Myron Rodney, young
barytone, who gave recital at Aeolian
Hall last evening. His voice is not i'm
mediately appealing in quality; it has
more rigidity than sensuous charm
Still, when adroitly controlled, it can
be made to assume q sufficiently plau-
sble sem mblance of warmth. AS yet
Mr.. Rodney appears to have acquired
only the rudiments of the art of song
HIS upper notes were not always re-
llable. Perhaps owing to nervousness
his ntonation was not always true to
pitch.
His program was calculated to show
an understanding of various styles and
composers, from q rccitative and aria
from Mendelssohn's elijah" to the
elaborate modernity of Deems Taylor
also three French numbers-"Vision
ade" Faure's "Les Berceaux" and
Tostis "Pour I'm Baiser" If Mr.. Rod
ney wishes to sing in French he should
give the language serious thought and,
using songs in which these words oc-
cur, inform himself correctly as to the
pronunciation of "berceaux," "fugi-
tive "baiser" and "curieux."
Some What conventional in his inter
pretations, Mr.. Rodney appeared in
lotning more at ease than in the pro-
logue to "Pagliacci," which he added to
the program. In this he showed
marked familiarity with the traditions
of the Italian operate school of sing
ing. The accompaniments were skill
fully and sympathetically played by
Maestro Arturo Papclardo.

Princess Troubetzkoy
Weds Ex-Army Captain
Marriage of "Prettiest Red
Cross Nurse" Was Opposed
Inv Russians of Nobility

From. The Tribure's Washtngton Bureow
WASHINGTON, April 29.-Princess
Troubatzkoy, famed as the "most
beautiful Red Cross nurse in Europe"
was married at noon to-day to Captain
Wallace Strait Schultz. of Milwaukee.
The princess quietly left The Naval
Hospital, where she had been a nurse
since April 8, and hurried to St. Paul's
Protestant Episcopal Church, where
the ceremony was performed by the
Rev. DR.. Robert Talbot.
Up to the moment that he led her to
the altar, the former army captain held
apprehensions Of intervention on the
bride, who strongly opposed her we'd
ding outside the nobility. Pressure
had been brought to bear ON her, ac-
cording to the bridegroom, by promi-
nent Russians of the old regime now
living in New York and this city to
remain true to her traditions of
nobility.
There were only few invited guests
at the ceremony, most of whom were
doctors and nurses from the hospital.
Captain Louis A. Montfort, air serv-
ice, also of Milwaukee, who brought
the pair together, also was in attend
ance.
The bride was dressed in the Rus
sian Red Cross uniform, which created
such a stir when she recently visited
American Red Cross headquarters in
formally. She carried an immense
bouquet of American Beauties and had
as her sole attendant Miss Sara NJ.
Cox, chief of the nurses of the Naval
Hospital. Captain Schultz had as his
best man Paul n. Kuder, of Milwaukee,
with whom he is associated in business
there.
The bridal party marched down the
aisle to tie strains of Russian music
and Immediately after the ceremony
departed on a brief honeymoon in
Canada. They will eventually make
their home in the bridegroom's native
city.
Captain Schultz, who served over
seas with the 120th Field Artillery, in
the 32d Division, saw active duty in
Alsace and in the Chateau Thierry
drive to the Vesle River.
