CURIOUS SIGHT
 IN LISBON STREET

Lisbon, Aug. 2o.-A curious sight was witnessed in the streets of Lisbon just after dawn recently. Maria Conceicao, wife of a workman, was seen dragging herself painfully on her knees from her house through the busy streets to the Church of Our Lady of Health, thus carrying out a VOW made during the illness of her husband, in case of his recovery.
 The distance from her house to the church was over two miles and long before she inad. accomplished one half of her pilgrimage, her knees were torn by the stones and her dress was stained with blood
 Maria's husband, a young tinman, fell seriously ill about six months ago and was given up by the doctors. His devoted wife tended him with untir- ing care and love and when it was thought that he was dying, she pray ed for a miracle that should save his Efe making a VOW that if he recov- cred she would go on her knees, as a sign of thanksgiving, to the shrine of the Lady of Health.
 The husband recovered and the wife has fulfilled her VOW.

 Former soldiers have not forgot ten the chivalry of the profession of arms. We will be glad to rid the parks of the undesirables. said Jo- seph Woeste, oversea veteran and municipal police court prosecutor.

The title role will be sung by the dainty little Russian prima donna, Lydia Lipkow- ska, credited with artistic triumphs in grand opera companies and in every European capital It includes Jeff ferson De Angelis, the American comedian late with the New Boston ians; Dorothy Francis, from the Chi cago grand opera and French opera of New Orleans: Reginald Pasch, principal tenor from the Rembrandt, Amsterdam; Frank Webster, English aanz, tenor; Georges s Dufranne, French comique; with Herbert Sparling. Ralph Sou1e, Marie Wells, William H.
