Wolf Plays Chopin Program
Pianist Warmly Greeted; Miss
Custafson Sings in Evening

Chopin was we'll represented in the
piano recital given by Daniel Wolf
yesterday afternoon at the Town Hall,
with fsntasie, four etudes. the F
sharp major nocturne and C sharp
minor scherzo, which Mr.. Wolf played
with great vigor and resonance, with a
sometimes excessive emphasis in the
bass and generally adequate tech
nique. Besides the Chopin numbers he
played pieces by List, Grieg, Cyril
Scott and Debussy, which he performed
in the same vigorous manner, and con-
cluded with his own sonata in F sharp
major. short and spirited compost
ton reminiscent of Chopin. A small,
but apprecative audience called for
encores.
In the evening, at the same hall,
Miss Lillian Gustafson, a soprano who
has been soloist with the Schola Can
forum, gave recital with Kurt Schind-
Ter as accompanist. Miss Gustafson's
voice is extremely light, almost too
light to create any profound impress
sion, but she sang prettily and with
taste. The chief interest of the re-
cital, however, lay in the program
which included the first performance in
New York of three songs by Sibelius,
"The Morning." Northern Swans" and
"The Bird Catcher; "Paysage SEN
timentale," one of Debussy's first
songs, and several Spanish numbers by
GranaGos.

Declaring he did not "half paint the
picture" Senator Watson added:

gallows upon which say soldiers were
hanged in violation of all law and I
can produce the witnesses were IL safe

them to danger, but say it is true"
Ask Immunity for Witnesses
Further he asserted he could pro-

which white men "were hanged like

said If witnesses were guarantee i'm

Wadsworth, he said:
"He is the only man on the floor
who has been supercilous and discour-
teous to me. I am the peer of the
Senator from New York or anybody
else"
Senator Watson then depicted other
abuses of the soldiers. He said (:

French when "our soldiers were starv-
ing for it, and were fed by the Chinese
coolies, who were digging trenches and
bitches. He charged they were sent on

"one man in our army was executed

Further than that, sir, the inference
to be drawn from this assertion of the
Senator from Georgia to the effect that
dozens were executed is utterly aside
from the facts or the truth. l assert
that the men who were executed fol-

He called the talk of Senator Watson

the charges belonged to Senator Wat

Senator Watson then said that he

Lisbon Is Made
Bombs Target
Explosion Follows Placing of
Note, Protesting Proposed
Execution of Sacco and
Vanzetii at Officials Door
Diplomat Has Close Call
KicksInfernal Machine From
Him in Time to Keep 1t
From Inflicting Injuries

LISBON, Nov. (By The Associated
Press).-A bomb exploded to-day on
the staircase at the American Consu-
late here. No damage was done. A
note found nearby said the bomb was
meant as protest against the pro-
posed execution of Sacco and vanzetti,
the Italians convicted of murde.. in
Massachusetts,.
The bomb, which apparently was
form of grenade. had been placed be-
fore the consulate door, 1t appears
that it exploded after the Consul. in
leaving his quarters, had given the
grenade push with his loot, but the
interval intervening was sufficient to
give the official time to escape.
wAsHINGGTON, Nov. 1 (By The AS
sociated Press .-ax dispatch from Con
sui General Hollis at Lisbon received
to-day at the State Department said
that the Portuguese government was
Investigating the explosion and would
make efforts to apprehend those re-
sponsibe.
The message said that note pro-
testing against the conviction of Van
zetti and Sacco in Massachusetts, was
slipped beneath the door of the CON
suate and a few moments later the
explosion occurred.
Investigation has been instituted by
the Department of Justice into threats
being made by radicals in protest
against the execution of Sacco and
vanzetti.
Officials would not discuss details,
but it was indicated that the State
Department was cooperating by turn
ing over to the Justice Departments
bureau of investigation all information
it received as to the threats being
made on American diplomatic and con-
sular officers abroad.
The widespread dissemination of the
threats and the persistence with which
the threats have been made following
the recent attempt on the life of AM
bassador Herrick at Paris, was under
stood to have caused the investigation
forces of the government to pursue the
work with decided energy.
Officials also refused to say whether
any results had been achieved in the
Investigation or whether any indica-
tions of worldwide and concerted ac-
ton by radical sympathizers with the
Italians had been unearthed. 1t was
said developments were expected.

Edna Beloved Thief,
And Trunk Filled
With Loot, Vanish
Girl Whose Tears Washed
Away Punishment for
Robberies Fails to Keep
Promises to Mend Ways

Edna R. Wilsey, the naive young
woman who has robbed all sorts of
people at all sorts of places and invari-
ably succeeded in making them glad of
it, disappeared Monday night from the
Virginia Day Nursery, it became known
yesterday. The Probation Society had
obtained employment there for her as
maid. A trunk filled with belongings
Of fellow employees disappeared at the
same time.
Judge Mott yesterday afternoon in
General Sessions issued bench war
rant for Edna's arrest. Edna, who is
known as "the beloved thief" was put
on probation by Judge Talley in Cen
eral Sessions last month. She then
promised to mend her ways. And it
seemed that she had mended them
until Monday night.
The matron at the Virginia Day
Nursery said that Edna came to her
Monday afternoon and announced that
she would not be at supper that eve
ming. She was going to party. When
she took her departure she was pre-
pared to go most anywhere, as, it is
alleged, she had helped herself to
everything belonging to the other
maids that she could lay her hands on.
The articles that she is charged with
taking included shoes, silk stockings,
dresses street and evening" new fur
coat and vanity case.
Edna was employed last July as a
nurse at the Manhattan State Hospital
on Wards Island. She departed there
with $140 worth Of jewelry and cloth
ing, it is said, which is declared to
have belonged to Miss Rose Reilly, an
other nurse. Edna then went to Nj
agara Falls, where she formed an ac-
quaintance with a woman many years
her senior. She accepted q job in the
home of her new-found friend at Corn
ing, N. Y, stayed there a while, and
left with $3.50 diamond ring and $40
belonging to her benefactor. She was
arrested, cried, and was forgiven.
A warrant which had been issued for
her arrest in connection with the
Wards Island case brought her back
to this city. She was brought before
Judge Talley. Her victim was inclined
to be lenient and Edna was placed on
probation. She then got job at the
Virginia Day Nursery and reformed
until Monday night.

Modern authorities have also found tho

Natures teeth-protecting agents.
So Pepsodent multiplies the salivary flow
1t nultiplies the starch digestant in the
saliva That is Natures agent for digesting
starch deposits which may otherwise cling
and form acid.
1t multiplies the alkalinity of the saliva.
That is Natures neutralzer of the acids
which cause tooth decay.
Each use of Pepsodent gives multiplied
power to these tooth protecting forces. And
that alone, it is believed, means new dental
era.
Old-time tooth pastes, based on soap and
chalk, brings just opposite effects. Such ef-
fects must be avoided, as modern research

That film does this:

Film is that viscous coat you feel It clirxs
to teeth, gets between the teeth and stays.
The ordinary tooth paste does not end it.
Brushing does not keep teeth free.
Month after month it may linger to do
ceaseless damage. Most tooth troubles are
now traced to film. And, despite the tooth
brush, they have constantly increased. Very
few people escaped them.
The film absorbs stains, making the teeth
look dingy. 1t is the basis of tartar. 1t holds
food substance which ferments and forms
acid. It holds the acid in contact with the
teeth to cause decay.
Millions of germs breed in it, They. with
tartar, are the chief cause of pyorrhea Also
Of other serious troubles, local and internal.
