CARUSO HAS
SLIGHT GAIN
After Suffering a Heart Al
tack Last Night; Is
Desperately III
OXYGEN AND HEART
STIMULANTS GIVEN
Caruso Expressed Desire to
Receive Calls From Opera
Associates

New York, Feb. l6.-The condition
of Enrico Caruso, tenor, who suffered
a heart attack late last night, was re-
ported to be slightly improved early
to-day. Attending physicians admit
ted, however, that he was desperately
i'll. He had been improving steadily
from severe attack of pleurisy and
his relapse was entirely unexpected.
The sacrament of extreme JUNCTION
was administered to him at ] :25 this
morning by Rev. f. f. Molinelli of the
Church of the Sacred Heart of Jesus.
Caruso, at intervals throughout the
night and early morning hours, lapsed
into emi-consciousness, but rallied
slightly after minstrations of oxygen
and heart stimulants.
Fully aware of his condition, Caruso
directed the sending of a telegram to
his son, Enrico, jr., who is student
at CulveH Ind. He then expressed to
his wife desire to see his friends and
all the singers with whom he had been
associated in the Metropolitan Opera
company to tell them good bye.
Antonio Scott and his accompanist,
M. Fucito, appeared early at the Ca
russo apartment in the Vanderbilt no
tel and remained several hours. They
were joined by Orville Harold, Flor
ence Ostnan and others, members of
the opera company, who returned late
from Philadelphia, where they played
last night. All were deeply affected. |
They reported Caruso in a cheerful
mood.
Caruso first was stricken early in |
December while singing in the Brook |
lvn Academy of Music. Despite a
ruptured blood vessel in his throat he
sang until his audience learned of the
accident and protested against his of
fer to continue.
He was compelled, as result of
this occurrence, to cancel date at
the Metropolitan a short time after,
ut appeared on Christmas eve, sing
ing Eleasar in "Ia Juive." His appar
cnt ease in the role led to the belief
that he had fully recovered. The audi
ence at the Metropolitan that night
was said to be the most brilliant of
the season and the golden voice" re
ceived its many plaudits. That was
Carusos last public appearance.
Two days later he suffered an attack I
of pleurisy. This later became COM t
plicatcd, necessitating two operations :
Caruso showed marked improvement
and several weeks later sent word from 5
his apartment that he was warbling I
a few notes; his voice was unimpaired n
and he expected to be able to return
to the opera soon. v

Il viii Be Found Most Satisfactory to
Remove All Acid Fiavor-Rinse
Thoroughly and Soak for Four
or Five Hours,

prepared by the United States Depart
ment OF AgricultureD
Some fermented and salted yege-
tables like cucumbers, are eaten raw;
others. like cabbage (sauerkrauD, are
usually cooked. In general the fer
mented and salted products may be
prepared for the table in much the
same manner as the fresh vegetables,
except that before being cooked they
should be soaked in fresh water for
several hours or longer, If necessary,
TO remove the salt, the water being
changed several times. In some cases
1t may be necessary also to change
the water once or twice during the
boiling Of the salted vegetables. In
this one should be guided by taste.
Te prepare the fermented or sailed
corn for the table, rinse ii thoroughly
and soak for four or five hours, chang
ing the water frequently. In general
ii will be found more satisfactory to
remove practically all the acid flavor
from the fermented corn. After soak
ing. place the corn in cold water and
bring TO boil, pour off the water, add
fresh cold water, bring TO boil again,
and cook until tender. The cooked
sailed or fermented corn may be used
in many ways. The following recipe
for corn chowder Is recommended by
household specialists of the United
States Department of Agriculture:
