ADVICE TO BEGINNERS.
Today Washington has a brief
glimpse of the music drama that is
the art of the opera. The wife OF
Fortune Gallo, herself an artist who
has succeeded. makes one feel with
increasing understanding the human
ity that lies beneath the great organi-
zation of a touring opera company,
Fortune Gallo brings a tremendous
aggregation for grand opera at popu-
lar prices. Because opera is in the
making. here in Washington, his wife
very graciously forgot her personal
story and has given SOME sterling
advice that should serve our embryo
stars.

SCREEN REVIVAL OF EAST LYNNE" MAKES NEW STAGE
 HISTORY.

Hugo Balhn's screen revival of " East Lynne," which will be seen here at The Regent Theatre Thurs day, May ,, tempts theatregoers to lnterrogate stage historians and to browse through old playbills and records. For Mrs. Henry Woods melodrama has too long been a lit erary and theatrical tradition not to have had an interesting history.
 A play in which ladies have re- veled lachrymally not for year, but for generations, not only in the language of the original, but in vir- tually every tongue-such a crea- ton must necessarily have enlisted the talents of many artists and must at the same time have been witness ed under unusual circumstances.
 Mabel Ballin, wife of the mural painter now lending his talents to the films, plays the heroine whose problems while old are forever new. The part is associated with the mem- o1y of dozen famous actresses, whose achievements are part of the history of the stage of Ameri- ca. The play was first performed in London in 1862 and in New York year later. Matilda Heron, Lucille Western, Ada Gray, Clara Morris, Adelaide Cushman and Nance O'Neil are only few of the fa- vorite actresses of the last genera tlon who were closely identified with 1East Lynne" Admission 25 and 10 cents.

,OOO Negroes M
 Chicago Out of Jobs

Washington, April 25.-The Calu-
 met district of Illinois, of which
 Chicago is the center, leads the county in the number of negroes un- employed with approximately 15,000 idle. In the Pittsburgh district of Pennsylvania the number is 4,500, while in Michigan it is 2,530. In announcing these statistics Com missioner Phil H. Brown of the Department of Labor, after an emergency survey of selected in- dustries, declares almost one-fifth of the total unskilled negro labor of the country Joined the army of unemployed during the last three months of financial depression Only 2.63 per cent of the skilled negro labor was thus affected.
 From these facts. MT. Brown de- clares, there is strong evidence of the growing inclusion and retention of negro workers and it should act as an encouraging sign to negro labor that gained a foothold in the skilled group. Disposition to ap- ply themselves to early road con- struction and repairing and to re- turn to agricultural pursuits has had an effect to reduce in some measure thR number of negro un- he said The number of unemployed negroes in Va, has been reduced to zero by a revival of the 1 building industry there, according to reports to the labor department.
