lrapper, Lost i'm Wilds,
Writes of Slow Death

THE PAS, Manitoba, Feb. 15.--Out Of
the frozen expanses of Barren Lands,
two hundred miles from the nearest
trading post, news has just reached the
provincial Police here of the tragic death
Of A. O. Rinehart, of Duluth, MINI, a
trspper. His body was found last oc-
tober in shack by two other trappers.
where for months diary recorded how
ne had fought a solitary and courageous
battle against disease, hunger and cold.
The last entry was dated April 8, 1920.
Rinehart left The Pas in August, 1915,
on the long journey into Barren Lands
Tor trap line. During the next three
months his adventure apparently was
without incident, for the first entry in
the diary was dated November, is1s.
Four months later, March, 1920. the
ttrapper's notes revealed his almost hone
less plight, he having become helplessly
confined to his bed. Realizing his pre-
dieament, he had stored all his supplies
within reach. The final chapter told Of
ms inability to get out of bed to keep
the fires going, the exhaustion of his
water supply and his slow death.

Economical Buying Aim
Of National Fish Day

Granting that some retailers have
charged too much for fish, William
Fellowes Morgan jr,, secretary-treas-
urer of the Brooklyn Bridge Freezing
and Cold Storage Company, yesterday
announced that National Fish Day"
fixed for March 8, is intended to teach
the public not to pay such high prices.
The fish market is topsy-turvy, he
said, because people are afraid to buy
any except high priced fish. and this
limits the demand to such few varie-
ties that dealers must charge more
for tine cheaper varieties, which are
fully as good to eat.
eve will try to shift the load from
the expensive grades TO the cheaper
ones" he said. "by showing that such
Ash as haddock and herring are as
much worth buying as blue fish, sea
bass and shad. The sales on the
cheaper fish have been so low that
overhead charges have kept the deal
ers from charging less. We want to
call attention to this. with posters and
fish displays, for which prizes will be
given"

Paulist Choristers Give
Concert to Aid School
Ecclesiastical and Secular Music
ON Program at the Metro
politan Opera House

A concert of ecclesiastical and secu-
lar music was given by the Paulist
Choristers under the direction Of
Father Finn at the Metropolitan Opera
House last evening. The singing was
partly capella and partly accompanied
by piano and organ and by the Little
Symphony which also provided instru-
mental numbers under the leadership
Of it's conductor, George Barrere.
The Choristers sang with consider
able freedom and with the precision
that comes with much practice and
training. Less praise could be accorded
to their enunciation or to the balance
Of tone, which was unduly thin in the
upper voices.
Palestrina, Tommaso Vittoria and
Giuseppe Baini were represented on
their program, and of modern COM
posers, Sir Edward Elgar, Serge Rach-
mammoth, H. W. Loomis and others
The concert was for the benefit of the
choir school of the Choristers in this
city and was we'll attended.

Nine. Amelita CALI -Curci with another
congenial role, in which she, too, was
heard for the first time in this city.
1t was pleasure to hear again the
pretty music, to see the picturesque
settings, TO watch the antics of Mrs.
Benson, the goyerness, and those Of
her charges, Ellen and Rose, characters
who belong to the realm of opera
comique. In fact, the work itself & Of
opera comique proportions.
Mime. Galli-Curci was in good voice,
charming apparition, sympathetic in
song and action. The role of Lakme
afforded her many opportunities for
the display of her engaging histrionic
abilities. In song she was not called
upon for continuous exhibition Of
pyrotechnics, but for q revelation Of
exquisite lyric singing, of which she is
past mistress.

The Bell Song" in the second act was
brilliantly sung with beautiful quality

the Gerald, sang honestly but with
little distinction of phrasing or diction.
This is the more to be wondered at
when his distinguished work at re-

The fact that perseverance, combined
with intelligent directive work, will en-
able one to reach a goal in time is well
examplified in the case of George Sidney,
the star of "Welcome Stranger" coming
TO Englishs Thursday night, who, after
years of striving has finally landed In
the front rank OF American actors.
Years of experience in all classes of
theatrical work from burlesque to legiti-
mate comedy, prepared the way of sue
cess when the time arrived for him to
reach it. In this respect he is like
Frank Bacon, who patiently worked for
life time to finally achieve his llfe's
ambition in "Lightnin'" in which he has
established himself as a star Of the first
class.
George Sidney came from the lower
east side of New York. He is not the
only one Of that district who has won
fame. There is club in New York
known as the Grand Street Boys" com
posed of men who were born or brought
up in that neighborhood and among its
members are men prominent in the ju-
