Robin Hood at the EIks

The announcement that the opera, Robin Hood" is to be presented at the Elks theater two days, December 19 and 20, with matinee Sunday, De- cember 19, brings to mind that when. one day last January, there flashed the news to every paper in the country that Reginald De Koven, its famous composer, had died suddenly in Chi cago. that news was marking the pass ing from the busy world of American Journalism and American business life and the American theater and Ameri- can good fellowship of 8 splendid. unique figure-and one whose memory will always live. along with his inn mortal Robin and Friar Tuck and "Oh Promise Me" and all the other things that go to make up the most popular opera ever given to our stage.
 It would seem enough to be the com poser of Robin Hoodi" Reginald De l Koven, however, was a journalist as we'll as musician; theater builder and owner, as well as author; manager and producer, as well as composer; and above all, beloved associate and comrade of the biggest men of his day. Like his friend, Theodore Roose- welt, who passed on just a little while | before, De Koven could have made his mark in any one Of many lines. He ] did, indeed. leave his name as founder of the Washington Symphony orches- l tra, as builder and manager of the l Lyric theater in New York city, as dramatci and musical critic on severa of the great metropolitan dailies, and
 as author of numerous magazine arti- l cles and stories-all this in addition i to being our first great popular com poser. For this man, born very humbly l in Middletown, Connecticut, was th' | first native musician fired with tn, ambition to write his melodies into play form for that huge, eager public
 that had loved Gilbert and Sullivan and was only waiting to hail thu
 genius that should place America ol
 a par with Europe as an artistic, a.
 well as a commercially creative nation
 The success of Robin Hood" ha
 been so great that one is likely to for
 get his other operas, all of which me
 with an enviable popularity. Ther
 was Maid Marian" The Red Feath er,' Her Little HiGhness," 'The Wed
 ding Trip" and dozen others.

Merry Mermaids at Ramona

Still continuing on it's path of pop ularity. Macks Merry Mermaids are delighting crowded houses daily at the Ramona, where they are offering as clean and as snappy and bright a line of musical comedy as has ever been brought to the city.

nHuman Stuff, at the Hip

Harry Carey closes his engagement at the Hip with the final showings to- day of Human Stuff"-his latest fea- ture. and the attraction which has proven one of the most enjoyable the Hip has played for months. Human Stuff is aptly titled. It is a very human docGh9sssss sassasiisig iaest appealing theme, while at the same time maintaining the environment and atmosphere of the west-the portrayal at the hands of the star being one of his most convincing roles. Carey's legion of friends in Phoenix will doubtless, those who have not yet seen his latest triumph, take ad- vantage of the opportunity today Of witnessing as clean-cut a western pie ture as has reached the city for a long time, and easily one of the biggest hits Carey has yet scored.

VATICAN BESTOWS
HONOR ON BENSON
AMERICAN ADMIRAL IS DECO
RATED WITH CROSS OF ST.
GREGORY THE GREAT.
WAR RECORD IS PRAISED.
Cardinal Gibbons offeIates at the
Ceremony, Which Is Very impress
slve-Bishop Russell of Charles
ton Orator Of Occasion.

Baltimore, Md.-As papal repre-
sentative, Cardinal Gibbons during a.
solemn mass at the Cathedral con-
ferred upon Rear Admiral William
Shepard Benson, U. S. N, former chief
of naval operations, the knighthood
and cross of the order of st. Gregory
the Great, military class. Sec. DAN
iels was an interested guest.
Pope Benedict authorized the honor
last January in recognition of the
valor, loyalty and Christian example
of the admiral, who became Cath
olic during his studies, years ago, at
the Naval Academy The decorations
consisted of yellow-fringed stole, a
silver star and a gold, octagonal
cross.
A message to the admiral from the
pope was read, showing it the purpose
of the pontiff to honor, with the ad.
miral, the entire American nation, and
especially praising the example Of
piety, devotion and Christian virtue
set by the naval hero.
AS Bishop William T. Russell Of
Charleston, S. c., who was the orator
of the occasion, explained, Loyalty, de-
votion and self-sacrifice was as Who'll
ly a Christian virtue as it was patriot,
ism.
In the midst of his sermon the bish-
op made reference indirectly to the
Admiral Sims affair. Turning direct
ly toward the secretary of the navy,
Bishop Russell said:
"The officers of the navy are not
dictators, but servants. When our
properly constituted congress sees fit
to declare war and to prosecute it,
then congress and its agents deserve
respect, both from citizens and off
GERS, and in the case Of the officer it
is not his to reason why, but merely
to do and if necessary, die When an
officer has given the best in him, has
made sacrifice and has given un'
swerving devotion, then is he, indeed,
worthy of honor"
At this point Bishop Russell re-
minded the congregation of the great
task which Admiral Benson, as chief
of naval operations, had surmounted.
He had been aware at all hours of the
day and night, the bishop said, with
out the aid Of charts of the exact POI
sition of each American ship on the
high seas. He pointed to the great
accomplishment of having sent 2,0OO,-
900 men to France and supplies I'M
limited to the allied nations without
the loss of single ship. He told OF
the great skill that rendered the SUBJ
marine inocuous, and then went on
to pay tribute to the admiral.

TERMS OF TREATY
MUST Be OBSERVED
ALLIED POWERS DECIDE TO
BRING ECONOMIC PRESSURE
TO BEAR IN GERMANY.
DETAIL3 NOT DECIDED UPON
British and italian Pren1iers Are In
Aeeord-AIlles Will Not Accept
Wilson's PrOpoSal as to
Turkey.

San Remo.-The inter-allied SUI
preme council began its formal ses-
sion in the Villa de VAUGHAN, on the
hills to the northwest of the main
town.
The premiers were agreed without
a moments discussion that Germany
should be told in the most positive
manner that she must observe the
treaty; that the allies were firmly
united upon this and that she should
be warned of the punitive conse-
Quences should she refuse or fail to
observe the treaty
Premier Lloyd George suggested
economic pressure depriving Germany
of food, raw materials and intercourse
with the allied countries. Premier
Millerand is described as having said
that such pressure, without the use
of naval or military aid, would in ef'
feet be no pressure at all.
Premier Lloyd George, it is said, re-
sisted this conclusion. Premier Nitti,
inclined toward the British prime
minister's view, and the matter rests
there for the present. A compromise
may take the form for an ultimatum
to Germany with the threat of apply
ing effective compulsion without In
dicating what form the compulsion
might take.
In considering the Turkish treaty
the council decided to reply to Presi'
dent Wilson's note on the subject, CIV
ing him full explanations as to why
it could not accept the points he made
in this connection.
The reply of the allies in thus sup
plying full information on this ques'
ton is taken here to indicate their
general attitude toward the United
States government in treating the I'M
settled European problems.
The Turkish treaty was approved by
the council in the general form in
which it was drawn by the council
of foreign ministers in London.
Changes were made in two points, but
these were not disclosed. 1t was de-
cided to request the Turkish pleni'
potentiaries to present themselves in
London on May IA to receive the
treaty.
