When Women Take to Arms.

Kansas ought to have some opin-
ions on the movement now on foot
for an amendment to the Federal
Constitution to make women as well
as men subject to conscription in
time Of war.
A brigade of militant wives and
daughters, enraged by the refusal Of
some Of the coal miners to join a
sympathetic strike in the region OF
Pittsburg. Kansas, charged the mine
workings. This impromptu army
gained all detectives.
This proved that the petticoat bri-
gade, though reported to have been
leaderless, were not like an unor-
ganized band of Carrie Nations. They
displayed good generalship.
In their charge on the mines the
Kansas women seized the dinner
pals of eighty-five defenseless miners
and after pelting the strikebreak-
ers with pie, cake, sandwiches and
other morsels from the miners fare
dashed hot coffee in the faces OF the
helpless victims. They wound up
their shock troop operations with a
bombardment concentrated on a neu-
trail sheriff and his deputy sworn to
protect the property and preserve the
honor of the bailiwick. The two Off.
GERS were completely obliterated by
a crossfire OF bread and butter.
The thought Of another war, in
which women might be qualified to
bear arms, is, in the light OF this
Kansas incident, enough to make even
hardened veterans shudder.

WALTER DAMROsCH's LECTURE.
Gives Final Discourse ON Wagner
with Piano illustration

Aeolian Hall was quite filled with per-
feet Wagnerites yesterday afternoon
when Walter Damrosch gave his final
lecture with piano Illustrations on Der
Ring des Nibelungen.' lie had reserved
for this concluding discourse the last
act OF "Goetterda emmerung," which con-
tains much matter. Siegfried tells the
story OF his life to Guntaer, and imme-
diately afterward come his death and
funeral.
Playing the funeral march on a piano
is a formidable undertaking, but Mr..
Damrosch was not daunted. He passed
on to the final scene. the immigration Of
BrlennbiIde and after that to what the
old masters would have called the
grand finale de ropera." the destruc-
ton of Walhalla and the finish of
WotGn and his futile family by the
triumphant Loge. All OF this was ex-
planned. illustrated and expounded by
Mr.. Damrosch in the happy manner
which he long ago made popular Soon
he Is going away from here to Europe
but when he comes back there will be
more lectures-"Trlstan und Isolde"
"Parsifal" and die Meistersinger."

obviously would not of itself recap
ture the lost export business in coal.
About all it could do, and perhaps
not even that for long, would be to
enable domestic bituminous to hold
its own against British and German
coal at our tidewater markets. But
the United States cannot hope to re-
gain the European coal markets, it
cannot hope even to hold the nearer
markets OF Canada and Cuba, not to
mention South America and the Pa
cific islands, until all the suicidal
costs of mining and marketing coal
have been readjusted on a rational
basis, productive, distributive and
competitive.
This country now faces show
down on the proposition of whether
American coal shall sell at the right
price or American industry suffer
death blow.

"The Old Arm Chair"
Dave Wambold Sang the Song
Maybe Fifty Years Ago.

To THE NEW YORK HERALD: Permit
me to correct "J. o. r." as to Tony
Pastor ever singing THE Old Arm
Chair" 1 can remember Pastor when
he was on the Bowery. When he went
to 5S5 Broadway / attended every Tues
day matinee, being a night messenger
near by.
When Pastor was on the Bowery any
old timer can tell you this song was
nightly rendered by Dave Wambold of
the San francisco Minstrels up on
Broadway, the combination being Birch,
Wambold and Backus.
~. o. r." Gays the song was sung
thirty years ago and that Brooklyn was
not heard of at that time. Well, I lived
in Brooklyn at the time and heard
Wambold sing THE Old Arm. Chair"
long before my son was born, and that
was thirty-nine years ago. Any old
timer will agree with me that it was
sung fifty years ago. As for Jimmy
Hoey being the equal OF his brother,
there was as much chance Of compari-
son between them as between Count
Johannes and Booth.

A Bonaparte as Albania's Ruler.

An American as ruler of Albania
has for years been dream Of many
Albanians who have struggled to
build up in their native land stable,
independent state. America is better
known to the average Albanian
than most nations of Europe, because
Americans have done more than any
other foreigners to relieve his dis
tress and to furnish for him means
of education. The men who have
most ably represented Albania in re-
cent years were educated in this
country-CoNsTANT CHEKREz1, Fra
NoII and FAX KoNITzA Bey are Har-
ward graduates--and they have been
close students and ardent admirers
of American governmental and po-
litical institutions.
1t is thus not unnatural that CHEK-
REzI. who is the Albanian Commits
sioner to the United States, should
see in JEROME NAPOLEON BoNApARTE
a not unlikely candidate for the Al
bantam kingship. Albania ia through
with princes of the Wied type. The
European princelings who have been
proposed as rulers have not found
much favor with the people, and AL
bania has no native son whom she
could intrust with the peculiarly diff
ficult task Of starting off the new
state. Mr.. BoNAPARTL would be a rep
resentative of Americanism, which,
the Albanians know, stands for free
dom in government; his name would
have an especial appeal to them. as the
first NAPOLEON was one of Albania S
early friends and defenders.
Mr.. BoNAPARTE Is no doubt justified
in saying. as he is reported to have
said in an interview, 81 am unde-
cided about acceptance, because con.
ditions in Albania are so disturbed
IL would be a difficult task" During
the world war northern Albania was

Governor Rely Goes Back.

1t is announced in Washington that
Governor r.. MoNT RELY of Porto
Rico will return to his island post
at the earliest possible moment. He
will take with him gift welcome TO
those Porto Ricans who prefer work
TO talk: an extension OF the Federal
farm loan system to the island.
The leaders of the Independista
party may have cherished the hope
that President HARDING would be inn
pressed by their clamor against the
outspoken Governor who refused to
deceive the Porto Ricans in regard
to their political future. The enc
mics of the Governor may have been
deluded into thinking that he might
be influenced by their words of dis
appreciation to abandon his post or
to revise his policy of complete truth
fulness. Such dreamers knew neither
the President nor the Governor. Mr..
RELY is going back to do his Ameri-
can duty in-and for-Porto Rico.
The majority of the people of the
delightful island are not in favor Of
separation. They await the proud
day when Statehood shall be theirs.
What Governor RELY will take back
to them in the way of economic as
sistance will be properly valued by
,h< 1--we aff n

Russia's Interests.
A Plea for Representation When
They Are Discussed.

To TIE NEW York HERALD: Accord
ing to the papers It is proposed to dis
cuss at the international conference at
Washington even the questions concern
ing Russia, and especially Siberia, with
out any participation of Russia in it's
deliberations. Such O course would be
a mistake.
Russia took a great part in the last
European war; she bore very important
losses, more than 100000 soldiers hav-
ing been left on the field of battle. and
i. was certainly thanks to her that the
forces of the enemy were much weak
eied and the possibility OF victory was
given TO the Allies and the United
States. In consequence OF this she de-
serves that the questions which touch
upon her interests should not be dis
cussed and settled without her particl-
patton in the conference. AS Russia at
the present time has not a legal govern
rnent and cannot send delegates 10 the
conference it would be more regular to
adjourn the discussion of such questions
until order has been reestablished and
she can take part in the discussions
through her own representatives.
put 10 use Sucl a SlalG cl lnl1SS us
we have now in Russia In order to draw
from it some profit would not be tacti-
cal, because even after that Russia could
present her protest and would not recog-
nize the acts against her interests as
obligatory upon her. For instance,
Japan, according to the Portsmouth
treaty with Russia, received from her
the southern part of the island OF Sagha-
lin. and now she has occupied also tho
northern part of the island, which by
the treaty belongs to Russia. But Rus
sia, in concluding the treaty with Japan,
reserved this part OF the island because
It lies just opposite to the mouth of tho
River Amur and the possession Of 1t
would threaten the whole basin Of tho
river.
There are also other questions of ln,-
portance affecting Russia, and particu-
larly Siberia, which cannot be decided
without her special participation in tho
conference, as. for instance, the treaties
OF Russia with China concerning the
navigation on the frontier River Amur
as we'll as the questions OF Mongolia
and Manchurla.
