OF living cymbalom performers. His

fact the ancient dulcimer, proud an

1t is nearly seventy years since Maria
Piccolomin; set London nerves tingl:ng
with her electric impersonation OF that
shocking young person. violetta Valery.
The British public promptly had one Of
its periodical fits of morality. and the
prints teemed with protests against the
vitiating story. The manager Of the
opera was driven to write a letter In
defence Of the work. Henry Chorley.
whose pen always wrote the name of
Verdi in sorrow though not in anger.
gravely commented on the dreadful
state Of affairs, but his grief was di-
recteds rather at the poverty stricken
music than at the libretto. Still he was
COMPOUNDED at the apparition Of a prinla
donna who was to cough herself to
death while singing through all those
long scenes.
Then came the exquisite Bosio and
again London was troubled by the pull
,nonary nightingale Of Verdi, creation
Rose Chcri made her even more ex-
quisite, and it began to be clear that so
long as there was q prina donna to give
personel grace and charm to Vioiettd

audiences happy. Chorley or no Choriey
True enough the old work has been con-
demned to death a hundred times and
every idolized representative of the lost

had its second performance in a season
which Is only in the middle Of its second
week. and 1t will doubtless have its
third, fourth and fifth.
Nine. Galli-Curci sang TiolcttG much
better than she did on the opening night.
TIE shortcomings Of that performance
were believed to be due to nervousness,
and undoubtedly they were. Last even
ing the prima donna was quite herself
and sang in accordance with her own
best standards.
Beniamino Gigli was again the Al
5rcdo and he, too. sang better. 1t Is a
pleasure to hear a young tenor who is
wise enough not to force his voice, who
produces clear, smooth tones, who
grades his dynamics with skill and who
sings all his music in way tilat shows
he believes It to be worth singing.
Giuseppe Danise replaced Mr.. De Luca

impressive father he presented. and he
sang with flnc breadth and depth Of
style. Mr.. Moranzoni conducted. and to
him must go tho credit for the vivacity

OF the first night.

For period Of four years, dating
from August last, $4,000 acres OF
wild country in PiscataQuis county
will be reserved by the State of
Maine as a wild animal sanctuary.
There moose, deer and all other game
will have q refuge from hunters.
They will find within its precincts
sheltering retreats during the fierce
storms and bitter cold Of the long
winters.
Within and towering over the reser-
vation rises Mount Katahdin, Names
highest peak. From its summit, 1855
feet above sea level, the view is one
hard to match this side Of the Rocky
Mountains. The watcher sees far
flung sweep of wilderness punctu.
ated by isolated conical mountain
peaks, hundreds of lakes, many Of
them of large size, sombre forests and
rivers that wind in curious tangled
snarls far and wide. Formerly these
streams and lakes were navigable by
birch canoes only, but now the sput-
tering motor boat has become cont
mon means of conveyance on their
surfaces. The Penobscot, six miles
distant from Katahdin, is the main
water thoroughfare to the region,
despite it's falls and shoals.
Mere difficulty Of access will not
keep hunters out. So around this
wild animal sanctuary the Augusta
Legislature has drawn the protection
Of the law. Poachers if caught will
experience pains and penalties Of a
character to discourage them from
further transgressions and to serve
as salutary warning to others.
Maine proposes that in that tract
wild animals shall be protected and
have full opportunity for increase.
For a breeding ground the reserva-
tion is ideal. AS the deer and moose
increase individuals will naturally
cross the sanctuary boundaries and
hunters will have their chance.
Fish will have to take their
chances. In the proper seasons fish
Ing is to be free and unlimited, reser-
vation or no reservation. There is
even one variety Of hunter who is
not barred from the sanctuary. This
is the one who is armed with cam
era only. Snapshooting wild animals
in their native haunts has been a
growing pastime OF late years, and
this Maine reservation will be fine
field for the camera mans efforts.
Maine has no wish to discourage
hunters. Far from it. To hotel
keepers, guides and many traders Of
various kinds they mean livelihood.
They are source of revenue to the
State at large. In fact, it is be-
cause their continued patronage was
desired that the Katahdin game reser-
walton was established. Something
had to be done or at no far distant
Gay there would have been neither
game ncr hunters.

To-day is particularly our own
holiday. 1t originated here and no
other continent than this has it. Ex-
cept for the thanksgiving days OF
the United States and Canada there
is in all the earth no official occa-
sioa for returning thanks to Provi-
dence by the people as people ire
spective of sect. Christmas and New
Years are celebrated wherever the
Cross has found its way; indepen-
dence and memorial days are OBJ
served in many lands; but the only
national Thanksgiving Day is ours.
This festival is 500 years old. Gov
ernor BRADFORD. at the close of the
Pilgrims first harvest in 1921, di-
rected that the colonists, saved from
starvation. remember the Source of
plenty. Since then the thought has
lived. Congress reminded the people
OF their obligation during the
Revolution: WASHINGTON established
Thanksgiving as the last Thursday
in November; and, beginning with
LINCOLN. no President has failed
yearly to proclaim the day Of CRATE
fulness. Great churches have added
it to their calendars. 1t is every
Americans religious holiday.
This three hundredth birthday of
Thanksgiving is peculiarly impor-
tant. Not only are we Of America at
peace with all but we are able to
feed the hungry of the world from
harvests far more bountiful than the
one that saved the Plymouth colony.
And we have as our guests on this
Thanksgiving Day the most illustri-
Gus Assem- blage of statesmen from
other lands that this country has
seen. They are gathered on business
which il successfully concluded
should make the world full of that
spirit which to-day animates the
American Thanksgiving.
To many of the wise men who have
come to Washington from Europe
and Asia this unique holiday must
have interesting significance. It is
Tot day originating in sectarian
tradition or in patriotic impulses.
It is not historic date or cere-
mony of jubilee. is a voice-a
voice that has gr~S from the few
scores of Plymouth TO the hundred
millions of this imperial Republic
raised in gratitude to the Most High
Tor what He has given in the way of
peace and honor and plenty.
AS in every American home to-day
the family will be gathered for happy
feasting. so at Washington is the
family Of the world met for the feast
OF peace. AS the American family
will remember to-day only the bless
tngs of the past year, so might the
men at the worlds table think of
the benefits that will come to all
their nations through the exercise Of
a spirit Of thankfulness. hope and
confidence such as pervades this
country today.
II the illustrious visitors in Wash
ington join with us to-day in this
particularly American festival we
can suggest no better prayer for the
nations than the wish expressed by
President WASHINGTON in his Thanks

WORLD ALMOST LOST GENIUS
Handel, immortal Composer, Had Re
markabIe Escape From Death in
Duel in Early Life.

1he great composer Handel was
born at Halle, February "a, 1854, and
at the outset of his professional life,
which was about his twentieth year,
he was nearly lost to the world by
q quarrel with one Matthewson, IA
able musician, who violently assault
ed him. A duel ensued, and nothing
but score buttoned under Handel's
coat and on which his antagonists
weapon broke, saved his life, which
was destined to prove of inestimable
value to the whole world.
In performing on the organ his
command Of the instrument was
amazing, as was the fullness Of his
harmony and the grandeur and dig
nifty of his style. Handel wore an
enormous white wig, and when things
went well at the oratorios it had a
certain nod or vibration which de-
noted his satisfaction and pleasure.
Without this signal 1t was certain
that he was out of humor.
He never married and died pos
sessed Of $100,000 of which he be-
queathed one-half to the fund for de-
cayed musicians, while the remainder
went to his relatives.-ChicagoJ Jour
